Definitions

  • a coke quenching car movable along a battery of horizontal coke ovens, has a pair of spaced vertical walls extending transversely of the car and defining a fall space between them.
  • the upper part of this space has a front opening for receiving coke from an oven.
  • the space below the opening is closed by a front wall, while the back of the fall space is closed by a back wall.
  • Extending from the bottom of the opening rearwardly in the fall space part way across the car is a ramp as wide as the fall space.
  • a deck slopes from the back wall downwardly below the inner end of the ramp for receiving coke from it and discharging it beneath the ramp onto a floor that slopes from the front wall downwardly to the back wall.
  • the lower part of the back wall has an outlet opening in it that normally is closed by a door. In the upper part of the fall space and also below the ramp and the deck there are water sprays for quenching coke beneath them.
  • the object of this invention is'to provide a car that can be moved before a battery of ovens, by which smoke and dust pollutions are eliminated, in which quenching is accomplished, in which the quenching time is less than heretofore, and which leavesthe coke with less watercontent than other-quenching cars.
  • FIG. 1 isacentral vertical section through'thecoke quenching car just after it has'received coke from an adjacent oven;
  • FIG. 2 is a horizontal section taken'on the line ll-ll of FIG. I;
  • FIG. 3 is a vertical section taken on the line Ill-ll! of FIG. 2.
  • a coke-receiving car 1 travels along a track in front of a battery of horizontal coke ovens 2.
  • the track is formed from upper and lower rails 3 and 4, on which the wheels 5 of the car travel.
  • Between the track and the battery of ovens is the usual operating platform 6, on which another track 7 is mounted for supporting a carriage 8 for a tubular coke guide.
  • This guide is made in two telescoping sections 9 and 10 that are telescoped when the carriage is moving along its track but are extended as shown in FIG. 1
  • the coke car has a floor 13 that slopes from the upper wheels down and across the lower wheels of the car to a point above a conveyor 14.
  • a conveyor 14 At the central part of the car there is a pair of spaced parallel vertical transverse walls 15 that are spaced a considerable distance from the ends of the car. These walls are supported by vertical uprights 16 and suitable horizontal connecting members.
  • the width of the space between the two vertical walls is considerably greater than the width of an over chamber, but it still is a relatively narrow space.
  • the back of this space, at the side of the car farthest removed from the ovens, is closed by a vertical back wall 17.
  • the upper part of the front of the space is provided with an opening 18, around which the outer end of .the coke guide section 10 will fit so that coke moving from the oven to the car will not be exposed to the atmosphere.
  • the front of the space beneath openings 10 is closed by a front wall 19.
  • the opening itself, when coke is not being delivered to the car, is closed by sliding doors 20 ,(FIG. 2).
  • the space between vertical walls 15 forms a fall space for the coke that is pushed into the car through opening 10.
  • the fall space is wide enough to receive the entire contents of a coke oven chamber at one time.
  • the ramp Opposite the ramp .there is a deck 25 that likewise extends across the fall spaceand slopes from the back wall downwardly-below the inner end of the ramp. The inner end of the deck islocated a considerable distance below the inner end of the ramp.
  • the deck receives .coke from the ramp and reverses its flow so that it moves toward the'front or oven side of the car and beneath theramp, where it falls onto the sloping floor of the car.
  • the floor again reverses the direction of 'movementof the coke so that it flows away from the cylinder '27. 'While thecoke is in the car it is quenched 'bywater sprayed onto the coke, as will be explained presently.
  • the back wall of the car is extended laterally away from openings 29, and a pair of front walls 30 are added that are parallel to the back wall and likewise extend laterally from the front ends of the wall openings toward the opposite ends of the car.
  • the outer ends of these front walls and the back wall are connected by end walls 31 at the ends of the car, and the confined spaces thus produced are covered by horizontal roofs 32. The result is that the coke, from the time it leaves the oven until it is discharged from the back of the car, is enclosed.
  • a tubular header 34 provided with spray nozzles 35 that direct water down onto the coke below them.
  • the header is connected to a pipe 36 that extends down to a horizontal pipe 37, the opposite ends of which are connected to the outlets of electric pumps 38 mounted on the two roofs 32.
  • water for the pumps can be picked up by an inlet pipe 39 extending down into a trough 40 beneath the car.
  • Another trough 41 fed by an outlet 42 of the car, carried the drainage water away from the car.
  • Another spray nozzle 43 is mounted in I the front upper corner of the space beneath the ramp and sprays water onto the sloping upper surface of the coke that extends from the ramp down to the upper end of the sloping floor of the car.
  • a third sprinkler system so that the coke will not be oversaturated. Or, it can be water required for quenching is less than heretofore, I
  • the quench vapors will rise through the fall space and exit at the top of the car.
  • a cleaning chamber is formed above the fall space by walls 47 diverging upwardly from the upper edges of vertical walls 15 as shown in FIG. 3.
  • Conventional cleaning apparatus can be disposed in this chamber, which also contains another sprinkling system 48 for the quench vapors.
  • a coke quenching car movable along a battery of horizontal coke ovens for receiving coke discharged therefrom in a horizontal direction, comprising a pair of spaced vertical side walls extending transversely of the car and definin a fall space between them, the upper part of sar space avmg a front opening between said vertical walls for receiving coke horizontally discharged from an oven, means for closing said opening, a front wall closing'the front of the fall space below said opening, a back wall closing the back of said space, a ramp as wide as said fall space extending from the bottom of said opening rearwardlyin said space part way across the car, a deck sloping from said back wall downwardly toward said front wall and below the inner end of said ramp for receiving coke therefrom and discharging it beneath the ramp, a floor sloping from said front wall downwardly toward said back wall for receiving coke from said deck and directing the coke toward said back wall beneath the deck, the lower part of said back wall having an outlet opening therein extending across said
  • a coke quenching car according to claim 1 in which said ramp is provided with a central longitudinal ridge with laterally inclined side surfaces.
  • a coke quenching car according'to claim 1 including temperature measuring means disposed in the fall space for regulating the quantity of water released by said sprays.
  • a coke quenching car including walls diverging upwardly from the tops of said vertical walls, and water sprays disposed between the upper parts of said diverging walls.
  • a coke quenching car in which said vertical walls are at the central portion of the car and are provided with openings beneath said deck, said sloping bottom wall extends laterally through said wall openings toward the opposite ends of the car, and said back wall extends laterally along said floor, whereby coke sliding down said sloping floor below said deck can spread out toward the ends of the car.
  • a coke quenching car including a pair of front walls extending laterally from the front of said wall openings toward the ends of the car, end walls at the ends of the car connecting the back wall with said pair of front walls, and a roof at each side of said pair of vertical walls covering the space defined by the underlying back wall, end wall and front wall.
  • a coke quenching car according to claim 7, including pumps for said sprays mounted on said roofs.
