Definitions

  • the corrugations extend in two directions to accommodate movements of the boiler relative to the penthouse in two directions in a first plane.
  • the dimension of the plate-like structure in a direction corresponding to the distance between the boiler and the penthouse is such as to accommodate movements of the boiler relative to the penthouse in two directions in a plane perpendicular to the above-mentioned plane.
  • both the penthouse and the boiler are normally hung from structural supports, such as ceiling beams or the like, by members which are heated by heat conducted from the boiler and the penthouse. Since the members which connect the boiler to the supports are heated to a higher temperature than the temperature of the members which connect the penthouse to the supports, the boiler will sag downwardly more than the penthouse during operation.
  • the present invention comprises a rigid plate-like structure attached to each of said members, said structure being corrugated with the corrugations extending in two directions to accommodate relative movements between said members in two directions in a first plane, the dimension of said structure in a direction corresponding to the distance between said members being such as to accommodate relative movements between said members in two directions in a plane perpendicular to said first plane.
  • FIG. 1 is a fragmentary view, partly in section, of the device of the present invention shown connecting a boiler to a penthouse;
  • FIG. 2 is a reduced horizontal sectional view taken along the line 22 of FIG. 1 with redundant portions of the structure being shown by dash lines;
  • FIG. 3 is a partial, exploded, perspective view of a portion of the device of the present invention.
  • the reference numeral 10 refers in general to a penthouse which extends over a boiler 12 for preventing heat losses from the upper portion of the boiler.
  • the outer walls 14 of the penthouse are spaced from the outer walls 16 of the boiler with the latter being formed by a series of spaced tubes connected by a rigid flat structure in a conventional manner.
  • the top 18 of the penthouse 10 extends over the top 20 ofthe boiler 12 in a spaced relation thereto, it being understood that the latter top is provided with openings to permit pipes and other conduits (not shown) to project outwardly therefrom.
  • tie rods 22 and 24 which connect the tops 18 and 20 of the penthouse and boiler, respectively, to the support structure so that the boiler and the penthouse are suspended from the ceiling of the structure.
  • the bottom edge of the walls 14 of the penthouse are connected to the outer surfaces of the walls 16 of the boiler by means of a plurality of plates shown in FIG. 2.
  • four rectangular plates 30 join the parallel wall portions 14 and 16 of the penthouse and boiler, respectively
  • four corner plates 32 are provided at the corners between the boiler and the penthouse
  • eight plates 34 connect the corner plates 32 to the plates 30. Only the structure details of one corner plate 32 and two plates 30 and 34, as well as the associated structure of the boiler 12 are shown in FIG. 2, for convenience of presentation.
  • the plates 30 are formed with a plurality of corrugations 30a extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the plates 30, the comer plates 32 are provided with a plurality of arcuate corrugations 32a, and the connecting plates 34 are provided with a plurality of corrugations 34a which extend parallel to the corrugations 30a of the plates 30.
  • each plate 32 is connected to an outer wall 36 projecting vertically from the outer edges of the plate 32.
  • the cross-sectional shape of the plate 32 is generally arcuate, with a portion 32b of the plate extending in a generally vertical direction and being shaped to extend over and in engagement with the corner defined by the adjacent side walls 16 of the boiler 12.
  • Each plate 30 is also generally arcuate shaped in cross section and has an upturned, generally vertical portion 30b which is generally co-planar with the corresponding portion of the vertical wall 36.
  • Each plate 34 is also generally arcuate in cross section and has a non-corrugated portion 34b with one side edge thereof corresponding in shape to the adjacent side edge of the corresponding portion of the vertical wall 36 and the other side edge corresponding in shape to the adjacent side edge of the plate 30, in order to connect the latter plate to the plate 32.
  • the plates 30, 32, and 34 are of a rigid material such as steel, it is understood that the connections between the plates and penthouse and boiler may be made any manner compatible with this material, such as by welding.
  • the dimension of each plate between the parallel edges thereof that are connected to the side walls 14 and 16 is greater than the distance between the side walls as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3.
  • the plates 30, 32, and 34 will accommodate the abovementioned vertical movements of the boiler 12 relative to the penthouse 10.
  • corrugations 30a, 32a and 34b accommodate relative movement of the boiler 12 relative to the penthouse in two directions in a horizontal plane, with the arcuate corrugations 32a relieving any stress that would otherwise occur in the corner areas due to these movements.
  • the connecting plates of the present invention provide an effective sealing connection between the boiler and the penthouse while accommodating all relative movements therebetween.
  • each of said plate means consists of a substantially horizontal portion extending between said members and two additional portions integral with said horizontal portion, said additional portions extending at an angle with respect to said horizontal portion and being respectively connected to said members.
  • the device of claim 1 further comprising third corrogated plate means connecting said first and second plate means.
