Definitions

  • galvanizing baths ename'ling .baths, glass baths and the like, according to which an inert gas is by means of pipes, passages, slots and the like introduced into the respective bath and is withdrawn above the pipes and the like when no articles are to be immersed into the bath for treatment therein, whereas, when articles are to be immersed into the bath for treatment therein, the inert gas is withdrawn outside the path of movement of such articles or outside a device for feeding and withdrawing additional substances into and out of the bath respectively.
  • an inert gas is by means of pipes, passages, slots and the like introduced into the respective bath and is withdrawn above the pipes and the like when no articles are to be immersed into the bath for treatment therein, whereas, when articles are to be immersed into the bath for treatment therein, the inert gas is withdrawn outside the path of movement of such articles or outside a device for feeding and withdrawing additional substances into and out of the bath respectively.
  • the present invention relates to a method of heating open melting baths such as galvanizing baths, enameling baths, lead coating baths, metallic baths, glass baths and the like in tubs and vats or tanks.
  • the present invention comprises furthermore a device for practicing the above method and also relates to methods and devices according to which a heat is conveyed from the outside to an open bath of materials in order to bring about and maintain the heat condition of the bath.
  • open melting baths are meant such baths the container of which the tub or vat or tank is at least temporarily open for charging the bath material or for immersing of bodies or articles.
  • the heating of such baths has heretofore generally been effected by heating the outside of the respective container from the side thereof or from below by means of gas, oil or coal dust burners. Also an electric heating system was employed. According to the wall thickness and the material of the respective container, a considerable temperature drop occurred between the content, i.e., the bath and the burners or the heating means whereby the container or container wall was subjected to considerable temperature stresses.
  • a further drawback of heretofore known methods and devices for heating baths of materials in containers consists in that the waste gases leave the device with a temperature which exceeded by 100C and more the lowermost temperature in the container so that the waste gas temperature in most instances amounted to more than 600C. These waste gas losses greatly affect the economy of heretofore known methods and devices.
  • an object of the present invention to provide a method of heating open melt baths of materials in containers in which a heating up of the bath may be effected in an economical manner and with a minimum of labor.
  • Still another object of this invention consists in the provision of a device as outlined in the preceding paragraphs which will make it possible to employ the invention with such baths into which bodies all articles of any type have to be immersed into the bath which means that a certain region within the bath must be free from pipes and conduits while a circulation of the bath melt must be assured.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a first embodiment of the device according to the invention in which the inert gas is from a shaft conveyed into a compressor and from the latter into a heater and from the heater to immerse tubes of the melting bath.
  • FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the device according to the present invention in which between the shaft and the compressor there is interposed a treatment chamber for the material to be immersed into the bath or material which has already been treated.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates on a somewhat larger scale than FIGS. 1 and 2 the container with the immersion tubes.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 illustrate additional examples of immersion tubes and gas withdrawal means.
  • the method according to the present invention is characterized primarily in that an inert gas is circulated through closed portions of the open bath and through a heater.
  • the inert gas is by means of pipes, passages, slots or the like introduced into the bath and is withdrawn above said pipes, and with baths for treating bodies or articles to be immersed is withdrawn outside the path of movement of such body or article or outside an adding and withdrawing device.
  • the inert gas is introduced into the bath symmetrically with regard to the longitudinal or transverse axis of the container and is symmetrically withdrawn.
  • the gas after leaving the bath is conveyed to the body or article to be treated in the bath or having been treated in the bath whereupon the gas is subsequently heated.
  • the container is filled up to above the mouth of the pipes which introduce the gas into the bath and of the lower end of a withdrawal shaft of the container for the inert gas.
  • a device for transferring the heat of a gas to a working medium of a heat consuming process it has become known to pass a heat dispensing gas through the liquid metal bath. It has furthermore become known with a heat exchanger for cooling hot inert gases in a metal bath while generating steam, to introduce the hot inert gas through immersion pipes into the metal bath. It has also become known to convey a heat dispensing inert gas from a core reactor through a metal bath. Finally, it is also known to circulate an inert gas passed through a metal bath while providing a heater and a metal bath. With the heretofore known devices, the liquid metal serves exclusively as heat conveying means in a heat exchanger with closed container.
  • the bath liquid or melt is not employed as heat transfer means to heat absorbing media but the inert gas is employed for directly heating an open treatment bath for instance a galvanizing bath, enameling bath, lead coating bath or the like.
  • a so-called air lift pump causes the inert gas to bubble through the bath in the container whereby a circulation of the bath is brought about so that the withdrawal of the gas from the open bath can be effected in one portion of the bath which is located for instance with galvanizing baths, enameling baths and lead coating baths outside that section of the bath which receives the body or article to be treated.
  • all ranges of the bath are circulated without impediments by immersed bodies to be treated or by articles or feeding or withdrawing pipes.
  • the device according to the invention for practicing the method of the invention provides for instance in the gas circulating conduit behind the container a separator, a compressor or a heater.
  • a separator for the combustion air of the heater.
  • an air preheater for the combustion air of the heater.
  • in the conduit between the compressor and the heater or in the heater itself, and air preheater may be arranged.
  • the first mentioned embodi ment has the advantage that the gas which passes out of the container is cooled once more in the air preheater and is conveyed to the compressor at the lower temperature.
  • the container is at each longitudinal and/or transverse side provided with a plurality of pipes which convey the gas into the bath while above the pipes on the container rim there is provided a withdrawing draft flue having that vertical wall thereof which faces the interior of the container end above the mouth of said pipes.
  • the pipes may in a manner known per se be designed as immersion pipes which are arranged in rows parallel to and near the side walls of the container.
  • a deviating wall between the lower section of the vertical flue wall which faces the interior of the container, and the immersion pipe or mouth of the pipe there is provided a deviating wall. This deviating wall forces the gas introduced into the bath to maintain a rising movement in the vicinity of the container wall while the gas bubbles through the bath.
  • the gas imparts upon the bath portion with the gas bubbles bubbling through a lower density so that this bath portion is above the gas exit from the pipes moved upwardly whereby a circulation of the contents of the bath is effected.
  • the gas as is sug gested, is introduced into the container at both longitudinal or transverse sides thereof, a continuous circulation of heated bath melt occurs at the walls of the container which means that the occurring lift pump effect will assure a circulation of the container content without mechanical means even around an immersed body or around immersed pipes.
  • the deviating wall preferably ends at a certain distance from the container between where it merges with a gate.
  • the distance from the container bottom and the height of the grate depends on the immersing depths of the gas pipe and on the quantity and type of the bath melt.
  • the draft flue on each container side is connected to a separate leading into the feeding line into immersion pipes. Behind the draft flue there may be provided a separator for melt vapors (demister). In this way it will be avoided that the compressor and the pipes of the heater are attacked by harmful melt vapors and particles.
  • a gas type closed treatment chamber for the immersed bodies or articles or the bodies or articles to be immersed.
  • These bodies may be such bodies which are continuously introduced into and withdrawn from the bath as for instance webs of material such as webs of sheet metal to be galvanized or bodies may be involved which are intermittently treated in conformity with an immersing method.
  • the device for practicing the method according to the invention comprises primarily a container 1, for instance a form of a tub or a vat or a tank, a compressor 2, a heater 3, and intermediate conduits between said parts.
  • the heater 3 in addition to comprising a heat exchanger 4 also includes an air preheater 5 for the burner 6 of the heater.
  • the container 1 illustrated in FIG. 1 serves with its content for galvanizing a web-shaped metal band.
  • the container 1 illustrated in FIGS. l-3 comprises a lower part 7 with walls 8 and 9 and the bottom 10 and by way of example intended for galvanizing a web-shaped metal band.

  • the inner layer on the other hand is as customary a ceramic layer.
  • the flanges 13 of a metallic part 14 pertaining to an upper structure 15 are connected to the flanges 12 of the outer layer of the lower part 7.
  • the upper structure 15 is provided with a ceramic lining 16.
  • the lower part 7 as well as the upper structures 15 form a container which is open at the top as is clearly shown in FIG. 3, so that articles may be immersed or passed through this open area.
  • passages 17, 18 are respectively arranged laterally and above said upper structures 15 and are extending along the longitudinal sides of the container.
  • Each of said passages 17, 18 is toward the interior of the container defined by walls 19 and 20 and merges with a passage which is formed by the wall 21, the end faces 22 of part 14 and the ceramic lining 16 as well as by the passage formed by the walls 23, 24 respectively.
  • One or more conduits 25 lead into said passages l7, 18 which through a further common conduit 37 (FIG. 1) are connected to the compressor 2.
  • a separator 26 Adjacent the wall 24 and facing away from the interior of the container is a separator 26 which extends into a passage section 27.
  • the feeding lines 28 which together merge with the conduit 39 of the heater 3 lead into said passage section 27.
  • Immersing pipes 27 opposite said feeding lines 28 are attached to the channel section 27. These pipes 29 have their horizontal section 30 extend through the upper structure 15, whereas the vertical section 31 of each immersing pipe is near and parallel to the wall 8, 9 directed downwardly into the container 1.
  • the immersion pipes are arranged in such a way that they are from their entrance place into the container located below the customary metal bath level Sp in the container.
  • This wall 32 has its upper edge located approximately at the level of the horizontal section 30 of the immersion pipe 29 and thus below the level Sp of the metal bath M.

  • the air preheater 5 may contrast thereto also be arranged in the conduit 37 whereby the inert bas leaving the passages 17, 18 will be cooled still further and in this condition is conveyed to the compressor 2.
  • a treatment chamber 40 is provided in the gas-tight closed circuit of the inert gas between the conduits 25 and the compressor 2, conduits 41, 42 of the inert gas conveying the inert gas to both sides of a web W to be treated or to both sides of a web which has already been treated in the bath M of the container 1, thereby preheating and- /or drying said web.
  • the gas is withdrawn through conduits 43, 44 and conveyed to the compressor 2 which as a result thereof is acted upon with the cooler gas, that is the case with the embodiment of FIG. 1.
