Therefore, it is desirable to provide the municate with an adjacent Strong gas channel, possibility of re-fllling the chambers with the Whilst in the other embodiment they communifine grained mass. To this end 'an aperture leadcate with adjacent parts of regenerator chaming to one of the adjacent regenerators is probers. 55
In the drawing Figures 1a to 1o are vertical sections of a regenerator partition in its longitudinal direction on line I-I of Figures 2a to 2c, Figure 1a and 1c showing the first embodiment and Figure 1b the other embodiment. Figures 2a and 2c relate to the first and Figure 2b to the other embodiment and are horizontal sections of the regenerators on lines A-A, B-B and C-C of Figures 1a to 1c,
Figure 3 relates to the other embodiment and is a vertical section normal to that represented in Figure 1b, on line III- III of Figure 2b.
Y Referring to this drawing, a denotes the regenerator chambers which are arranged in parallel ln a row in the longitudinal direction of an oven battery. b, Figure 3, are passages connecting the regenerators with the rows of heating nues c alternating with the coking chambers d. Each two regenerator chambers a serving to preheat the media of combustion (weak gas and air) alternate in the longitudinal direction of the batter: with two regenerators a which take up the hea d the waste gases. Upon reversal of the draft, the regenerators exchange their action. Therefore, in the two different stages of operation of the ovens a preheating regenerator space exists on the one side of the partition e and on the other side a waste heat regenerator chamber.
The partitions e include in a manner known in itself vertical gas supply channels f formed by bricks g of square section, see Figure 2a, and opening into the burners h which project into the heating flues. The bricks i1 and i2 adjacent to the bricks g form between them vertical chambers k which are filled with the refractory non-agglomerated mass described above. The vertical joint existing between the bricks i1 and 4iz and running in the longitudinal direction of the partitlons e at its ends meets transverse joints which owing to the peculiar design of the bricks ofthe bond do not immediately run up to the adjacent regenerator chambers a so that the mass entering from the vertical chambers 1c the joint obstructs the latter and prevents transition of gas and air, but cannot enter the regenerator itself. In the embodiment illustrated in Figures 1a, 1c and 2c the vertical chambers k by inclined passages m communicate with an adjacent strong gas channel. Hence, the mass can be re-iilled into the chambers AIi: even during the operation of the oven.
y In the other embodiment illustrated in Figures 1b, 2b and 3 a connecting passage n extends from the top of the chambers kto an adjacent regenerator chamber and is closed by a plug o during the operation of the oven. When the brickwork of the regenerators is re-bulit, the plugs o temporarily may be withdrawn and the chambers k re-fllled with the mass.'Y
