plate not exposed to the projectile.
PROCESS OF IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF STEEL ARMOR-PLATES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 506,446, dated October 10, 1893 Application filedMay 6, 1893. Serial No. 473,266. (No specimens.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT ScHMrrz, a subj ect of the King of Prussia, residing at Essen, in the Kingdom of Prussia, Germany, have invented a new and useful Process for Improving the Quality of Steel Armor-Plates, of which the following is a specification.
This invention refers to a process forimproving the quality of steel armor plates consistin g in the combination of the three following operations in the order indicated: first, hardening the plates by immersing the whole plates in oil, water, or other media, after haw ing previously raised them to a temperature at which the molecules have acquired the ca pability of ready re-arrangement; secondly, annealing the plates at a temperature which is as high as possible without however reaching the temperature at which said capability of ready re arrangement begins; thirdly, hardening the plates on one side or face at the same or at a lower temperature than that specified in the preceding or second operation.
In order to avoid great deviations fromthe form desired to be given to the plates through invention consists in interposingbetween the second operation of annealing and the last operation afurther new operation, namely the hardening of the dead or false sidevof the hardening the annealing heat'may be used. By this interposed operation, the hardening efiect of which is nullified or destroyed by the heating of the last operation, the plate the finished hardened plate corresponds with the form before the commencement of the operations. For the same purpose the, process For this maybe carried outalso ina simplified manner, consisting in substituting thev first operation of chilling the whole mass of the plates, by chilling only the side or face of the plate, which is not to be exposed to-projectiles, then glowing the whole mass of the plate and finally hardening by chilling the side or face of the plate whichis to be exposed to projectiles. -By the subsequent'hardening of both sides of the plate and by the intervening reheating between the two hardening operations exactly the sa'me properties are given in the case of thinner plates, to the main mass of the latter, while the central layer of the metal of very thick platesdoes not receive these excellentproperties in a quite perfect degree.
.one sid'e, consisting in first hardening the plates throughout their entire mass by chilling,then annealing in their entire mass, then hardening the side not to-be exposed to the action of projecti1es,and finally after reheat ing again hardening by'chilliug the side or face to be exposed to P jectiles, substantially as set forth. I
-2. Aprocess for hardening armorplates on one side, consisting in first hardening the; plates by chilling on the side not to be exposed to the action of projectiles, then annealing the plates in their entire mass," and finally again hardening the plates on the side to be exposed toprojectiles by chilling,,substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
