9 Claims.
This invention relates to heat exchanging apparatus and particularly to cooling towers wherein the temperature of water is lowered by continuously interrupting and breaking up the fine streams thereof during their downward travel in paths transverse to the flow of air through the tower.
In the manufacture of cooling towers, and more particularly in the construction of portable apparatus of this character, it is desirable that the core, or splash deck assembly thereof, be formed of parts capable of being readily assembled or dismantled at the point of use without the aid of tools or fastening members.
The primary object of this invention is therefore, the provision of a portable cooling tower wherein the splash deck assembly is constructed of interlocking members that may be quickly assembled at the point of use without the aid of tools and firmly held in fixed condition without the employment of screws, nails or other fastening elements.
It is further desirable both from the standpoint of manufacture and in the erection and dismantling of a tower, that a minimum number of individually different parts be used. This invention has for an additional aim, therefore, the provision of a splash deck assembly comprising support strips of but a single pattern capable of arrangement to carry a series of splash slats in staggered relation. one below the other, where'- by water dropping downwardly through the tower will be repeatedly broken up into fine streams or drops as air passes through the splashdeck assembly.
A yet further aim of the invention is to construct a cooling tower wherein uniformly slotted slats may be employed both as horizontal support strips, and as vertical spacers or looking members.
Other objects of the invention will appear during the course of the following specification, referring to the accompanying drawings wherein:
Fig. 1 is a vertical transverse sectional View through a cooling tower unit constructed in accordance with this invention;
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary longitudinalsectional view taken on line Ii-II of Fig. l; and
Fig. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary perspective View of a portion of the splash deck'assembly illustrating the mannerof interlocking the members thereof.
lin the drawings the numeral 5" designates generally a frame comprising standards 8 and upper, intermediate and lower transverse; tie
members ii), l2 and M respectively, and upper, intermediate and lower longitudinal stringers or tie members l6, l8 and 20 respectively. This open framework is rigidly secured together by bolts or analogous means 22.
Rails 24 fastened to the outer side faces of tie members it provide shelves for supporting an upper splash deck 26 comprising transverse stringers 28 anda series of longitudinal slats 30 fastened to both upper and lower edges of the stringers. slats Bil, as will be observed, are spaced slightly from each other, the spacing between the upper series of slats being staggered with relation to the spacing between the lower series. Tie members l2 immediately below members Hi, similarly support a lower splash deck 32 which is substantially a duplicate of the upper deck excepting that its slats 3 3 are in transverse relation to the upper slats 30.
The remainder of the tower comprises an uniquely constructed core, filler or splash deck unit generally designated by the numeral 36. This unit includes vertical supports or looking members 38, transversely arranged support strips 40 and longitudinally extending splash slats 42. These supports 38, strips 40 and splash slats 42 are preferably all formed of wood uniform in width and thickness, the supports 38 and strips 40 being provided with regularly spaced slots 44 and 46 respectively, formed therein by punching and dimensioned to snugly receive a strip or slat passed transversely therethrough.
In the embodiment of the invention illustrated, four vertical supports or locking members 38 are shown for each vertical tier of horizontal, spaced apart support strips 48. Adjacent the ends of the latter and in the normally lower edges thereof,
is formed a series. of three notches 48. Each strip 40 has a pair of notches cut into its normally lower edge at'points where they may be selectively engaged with intermediate supports38.
The positioning of these notches with relation to the slots 46 of the strip, is important and as illustrated. The lowermost strip it in Fig. 1 is locked in place as far to the right as its notches will permit. The strip next above is identical to the one below but has its ends reversed and is shifted to its extreme left position. The third support strip 49 is positioned to its extreme right,
the ends remaining inthe same relation as in the second strip. In the fourth strip from the bottom the arrangement of the lowermost strip is "again duplicat'edand this practice of positioning is repeated" throughout the remaining portion of the tower. Accordingly, a staggered positioning of the splash slat receiving slots 48 is obtained with a single pattern of slotted support strip 40 and when the notches 43 and 50 of the strips 48 engage, slots 44 in the vertical strips 38, lateral displacement of the strip 40 becomes impossible. The arrangement of the slots 8 in strips 4!! is such that the intermediate supports 33 extend between vertical rows of splash slats 42 and serve not only to maintain a in place over the supports 38, lock together the parts as a single unit. An additional locking bar 49 resting upon each stringer l8 and Hireceives the ends of vertical supports 33 and serves as tie bars to prevent displacement of supports 38. Lateral movement'of the intermediate portion of the unit is further precluded by side bars 52 lying between frame member 8 and the outer supports 38 and notched as at 54 to engage frame members 8. Thus, the filler or splash deck assembly comprises a sturdy unit with the cooperating parts thereof rigidly interlocked against movement.
Obviously, a tower constructed as described may be built up to several tiers in height, it being desirable to have intervening tie members 12 for each tie and also locking bars 49 over the uppermost support strips 40 of each tier. Likewise, the length and width of the tower may be readily increased to obtain the'cooling capacity required.
The manner of assembling or dismantling a tower provided with the uniquely designed core 35 above described, will be clear from the foregoing specification. Since support strips of only one pattern are required, much confusion in the erection of the tower is eliminated. With the horizontal support strips 49 and vertical supports 35 having identically shaped slots uniformly spaced, the manufacture of these members is also greatly simplified.
Red-wood is the preferred kind of material from which to make the parts of this interlocking splash deck for cooling towers. The cross sectional dimensions of slats 42, strips 40, supports 38 and locking bars 49 is about that of an ordinary lath and all are substantially the same in that respect.
A minimum amount of space is occupied by the load-bearing part of the structure and a sufficient number of splash slats 42 are mounted in the filler immediately below the upper splash deck to completely break the falling water into streams and drops as air is passing through core 36' in horizontal paths, transversely across splash slats 42.
The flow of air is not retarded by wide surfaces on supportingstructure and air maybe forced'through the tower in any direction. Boxing, not hereshown, may be applied to frame 6 for the purpose of confining the applied air to a stream moving in the-selected direction. 0
When manufacturing the parts of the deck, all
material or stock of desired dimensions is fed into a punch press or the like, to be perforated and notched. Equal spacing of slots 44 and 46 and the positioning of notches 48 at each end of strips 40 where they will be closer to a slot 46 at one end than at the other, is an important feature.
While only one form of splash deck assembly for cooling towers has been illustrated and described, other forms might be made without departing from the spirit of this invention, and it is desired therefore, to be limited only by the scope of the appended claims.
