Claims.
This invention relates to an infra-red oven and it has to do particularly with an oven through which work pieces may be passed and subjected to heat rays to treat the Work.
One of the most important reasons for treating work with heat rays is to dry coating material on the work such as paint, lacquer, or other substance. It will be readily appreciated that manufacturers of various kinds of goods'which are to be thus passed through an infra-red oven require ovens of different sizes, shapes and capacity depending largely upon the size, shape and type of the work to be handled. The size of oven may also depend upon the type of surface coating to be dried and other factors such as the mass of metal in the work piece.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide an improved oven structure and more especially to provide oven sections of a standardized nature, to the end that the sections may be selected and assembled together to provide an oven of the desired shape, size or capacity.
Heretofore, it has been the practice to ascertain the manufacturers particular needs and then build an oven designed to fit these needs. This, of course, is an expensive way in which to operate as each oven is built to order, so to speak. In accordance with the present invention, the sections of ovens may be made on a production basis with all sections of like form having the same dimensions and being similarly provided with attaching devices. These sections may be made up and held in stock and an oven of specific requirements can be assembled by using the requisite number and arrangement of prefabricated sections and assembling these sections together. In this way, a large variety of ovens can be had while using standardized sections. Thus, a manufacturer of ovens can quickly and economically select the sections to provide a large variety of different sizes and shapes of ovens and ovens of different capacity.
An oven structure made in accordance with the invention is shown in the accompanying drawings:
Fig. 1 is a front elevational View of an oven constructed of standardized units.
Fig. 2 is a view of an oven of different size and shape Which is constructed of the same standardized units.
Fig. 3 is a partial perspective View of an end portion of one of the sections.
Fig. 4 is a view showing parts separated and indicating a different arrangement of some of the sections.
2. Fig. 5 is a perspective view with sections separated illustrating a diiferent combination of sections than that shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
. Fig. 6 is a view partly in section showing the details of construction.
As illustrated in the drawings, the sections include what may be termed corner sections and intermediate sections. In Fig. 1, a furnace structure is made up of three different sections. There is one corner section I, a second corner section 2, these two sections being located at the lower part of the oven, and upper corner sections 3 and 4. The four corner sections are identical in construction. There are two intermediate sections 6 and l and two further intermediate sections 8 and 9. When these are disposed as shown, an interior oven space ID is provided through which the work may be passed on a suitable conveyor, or the like (not shown).
Each corner section, as indicated in Figs. 3 and 4, may be made up of suitable angle iron construction having an end frame II with an angularly disposed portion [2 and lengthwise extending frame members l3. Mounted on the inner face of the frame and particularly on the angular frame portions, is a panel of sheet metal having a portion l5 which is mounted on the angular parts l2 and a vertical portion l6. These two panels may be separate or integral as desired. Within the frame structure and specifically back of the panels [5 and I6 are conduit structures IT for containing electrical conductors. These conduits may be carried by brackets 18 mounted on the end frames and the conduits support heat lamps 20, as shown in Fig.6. The panels [5 and [6 are provided with openings for receiving the lamps so that the rays therefrom may be directed into the oven cavity and be applied to the work.
As shown in Fig. 6, the panels lS-lfii comprise a single sheet of material formed with a hook formation 2| along its upper edge for engagement with one of the angle members I3 and may be fashioned with an inturned foot portion 22 at its lower edge for engagement with a frame member. The edges of the panels may be turned inwardly to form flanges 23 for fitting within the opposite end frames 1 l.
A section 6l is made to provide two horizontal lines or columns of lamps, as shown in Fig. 6. This section has an end frame structure 25 and longitudinal frame members 28 with a sheet metal facing 21 provided with apertures for the lamps 26. Each row of lamps is carried by the conduit ll, the structure of which is the same as the conduit H in the corner sections.
3 The conduits may be closed by plates 28 held by bolts and wing nuts 29. The flanges of the frame members where they meet each other as shown in Fig. 6, are provided with holes so that the flanges can be bolted together by bolts 35.
The sections 8 and 9 are similar to the sections 6 and 1 except these are smaller sections, as shown in Fig. 1, arranged to provide one horizontal row of lamps. The sections 8 and 9 have end frame members 32 connected by longitudinal frame members 33 with a sheet metal facing 34 having apertures to receive the lamps as shown in Fig. 5. The sheet metal panels or facings 21 and 31 may be secured to the respective frames at their edges as shown at 39.
Each of the sections is closed in its outer portion by suitable sheet metal panels 35 for the corner sections, panels 31 for the sections 6 and 'I and panels 38 for the sections 8 and 9.
The apertures for the bolts are illustrated at 40, the same character being applied to like apertures in all sections.
In order to mount the oven a leg advantageously of angle iron construction may be provided for each corner, with each leg having a foot 46 and each leg having a plurality of bolt holes 41. The frame structure of each corner section may have a plurality of bolt holes 58. Accordingly, the legs may be bolted to the corner sections to provide various heights, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The corner sections likewise have their end frames ll provided with a plurality of bolt holes 50 by means of which the top and bottom panels may be applied.
The upper panel 5! is a sheet of metal with turned down edges 52 for fitting between the end frames l I and with an extending lip 53 which rests upon the frame members i i. To secure the panel in place, an angle iron strip 55 is placed over the extending lip 53. The securing strip has a plurality of bolt holes 56 by means of which bolts may be passed through the holes 56 and 50 to secure the holding strips 55 in position. Thus,
the lips 53 are clamped in position. The bottom panel may be the same or similar structural ele- 'ment, namely, the sheet metal panel 5m with its flanges 52a and the extending lips at the end 5311 to be clamped against the end frame II by the angle strip 55. It will, therefore, be apparent that the end sections may be placed at various distances spaced relative to each other and bolted in position by bolts 60 passing through the holes 56 and 50.
The versatility of the structure is demonstrated in Figs. 1 and 2. In Fig. 1 the oven is comprised of a bank of sections including two end sections and a large and small intermediate section 6 and 8 and an opposing bank of sections, namely, two corner sections 2 and 4 and intermediate sections 1 and 9. The furnace structure shown in Fig. 2 has the same number of sections but it will be noted that the oven is in a higher position because the two lower corner sections are attached to the legs in a higher position. Also, the two banks of sections have been spread apart and secured by the bolts 60. The elements 55 not only serve to hold the top and bottom panels in position but serve to hold the sections rigidly in assembly.
In the separated view of Fig. 5, a smaller oven is shown. This comprises four like corner sections and two of the smaller intermediate sections 8 and 9. The upper panel may have a flue or outlet Bl for venting the oven chamber.
The arrangement in Fig. 4 demonstrates how an oven of a horizontal nature, as distinguished iii) from a vertical nature, can be provided. In this case, however, the corner sections are disposed horizontally and the bolt holes 55 are employed for attachment to the legs while the bolt holes 48 may be employed for the top panels. Fig. 4 demonstrates two corner sections in separated relationship which may be bolted directly together or may have one or more intermediate sections disposed between them to thus make a Wider oven. An arrangement of this kind may be used where the work is passed underneath the bank of lamps.
While only a few different forms of ovens have been indicated, it is believed that from the description given above, that it will be clear how, by the use of these standardized sections, many ovens of different sizes can be made. Also, the length of the oven can be determined as desired by the simple expedient of placing a plurality of like assemblies of sections in end to end relationship.
