FIG. 4.
INDUCTION HEATING APPARATUS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION I. Field of the Invention Induction heating apparatus of the continuous type.
2. Description of the Prior Art In the heating of elongated metal workpieces of relatively large rectangular cross section, such as continuous strands, bars, slabs, ingots, or the like, of steel or other metal, up to a temperature such as required for hot rolling of such workpieces, for example, it frequently happens that comers along such heated workpieces are or become cooler than the more central workpiece portions, due to the nature of a preceding mode of heating and/or to the inherently greater rate of heat radiation from such comers following subjection to such previous heating and delay in presentation to the rolling mill. Since temperature deficient corners can introduce localized brittleness conditions leading to cracks and flaws in the rolled product, such cool-comer condition can be critical with respect to quality of such product. Heretofore, a compromise solution has been to return such cool-corner workpieces to the heating furnace, which at least is inconvenient. In the case of continuous or feed-through types of induction heating furnaces, it can become difficult to' solve such cool-comer problem even by return to the furnace in cases where the sectionwise induction heating effect of the furnace on the workpieces passed longitudinally therethrough is of a significantly lesser degree in the workpiece corners; thereby tending to detract from the value of a desirable heating mode.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The induction corner-heating apparatus of the present invention offers a highly desirable solution to the aforedescribed cool-comer problem. By inclusion of such apparatus in a continuous heating line en route to a rolling mill, for example, the opportunity is afforded for accurate, rapid and effective heating of the workpiece corner regions selectively in cognizance of any existent or anticipated temperature deficiency in such regions. In series with a conventional tunnel-type induction heating furnace in a continuous heating line, the induction corner heating apparatus of the present invention affords op portunity for rapid and effective regulation of the cross-sectional distribution of heat produced in elongated rectangular cross section workpieces.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING FIG. I is a simplified representation in plan view of a continuous induction heating line for" elongated rectangular cross section workpieces, embodying an exemplification of the induction corner'heating apparatus of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is an elevation view of the exemplified induction corner-heating apparatus taken along the line II-Il in FIG. 1; and
FIGS. 3 and 4 are plan and elevation views, respectively, of an alternate arrangement of the exemplified corner-heating apparatus of the present invention as affiliated with a relatively wide elongated rectangular cross section workpiece in a continuous heating line.
DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 in the drawing, an exemplification of an induction corner heating means is shown associated with an elongated workpiece 12 of square cross section to simultaneously heat the four 90 comer regions 14 of such workpiece while travelling longitudinally along rollers 16 in a continuous heating line which includes other heating means such as a helical-coil induction heating means or furnace 18 through which such workpiece also travels.
In accord with the exemplified embodiments of the present invention as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the corner-heating means 10 comprises the two sets 20 of elongated straight-sided water-cooled induction coils 22, 24 extending along and parallel to the upper and lower flat faces of the workpiece l2 and fonned by a number of turns of rectangular cross section copper tubing; one coil 22 encircling the other coil 24. The two coils can be connected in series, and energized via leads 26 from an AC power source at such as line frequency of 60 Hz, for example, in the case of cross-sectional workpiece dimensions measured in inches, for example.
The elongated side leg portions 26, of the induction coils 22 and 24, in extending along the comer regions I4 of the workpiece 12 create magnetic flux lines that are directed transversely of such corner regions and thereby induce longitudinal heating currents therein. To concentrate, direct and focus such magnetic flux lines diagonally across such corner regions 14, as indicated by arrows 15 in FIG. 2, and hence also enhance the efficiency of such coils 22 and 24, the corner-heating means 10 comprises registering stacks of steel laminations 28 in which such coils are nested and secured. As exemplified, each of such laminations may be E-shaped in broadface view, to accept the side leg portions 26 of the coils in the parallel elongated recesses formed by such configuration when the laminations are stacked together. At the same time, the lamination stacks are so constructed and arranged that each stack includes pole portions 30 of one polarity at its opposite sides that project transversely of the workpiece at its opposite sides, for cooperation with the centrally projecting opposite pole portion 32 of the lamination stack encircled by the coils, to provide flux diagonally pole pieces for directing the magnetic flux across the comer regions 14 of the workpiece. Also, by virtue of use of these, or other suitably-shaped lamination arrays, the magnetic coupling distance with the workpiece is considerably less critical than were induction heating coils alone employed, so that a range of workpiece sizes may be accommodated by a single corner-heating installation, as well as variance in lateral positioning within a given installation, without significance alteration of heating effect.
Where relatively wide elongated workpieces of rectangular cross section are to be accommodated, an arrangement such as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 may be employed, with the two corner heating means 10 disposed at opposite side edges of the wide workpiece and each spanning such workpiece thicknesswise.
The foregoing description in conjunction with showings in the drawings have been simplified in behalf of clarity. In actual construction and installation of the induction corner-heating apparatus of the present invention, it also will include the usual components such as may be required for insulating the turns f the coils, introducing cooling water to the coils and to the lamination stacks, as well as for supporting the heating assemblages, etc.

Induction heating apparatus for a heating line to efiect localized heating of temperature deficient side corner regions of an elongated thick workpiece of rectangular cross-sectional configuration including other heating means along such line, said heating apparatus comprising: elongated induction heating coil means in extension along the length of such workpiece; a source of energizing alternating current for such coil means; and flux concentrating laminated core means magnetically coupled to such induction heating coil means, having pole pieces of opposite polarity diagonally spanning workpiece side corner regions and concentrating and directing magnetic flux lines from such coil means diagonally through such workpiece corner regions.
