To (.LZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHRISTIAN ANDREAS FREITAG, a subject of the Queen of the Netherlands, and a resident of Amsterdam, Netherlands, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in and Relating to the Burning of Pulverulent Fuel and to Apparatus Therefor, (for which Letters Patent have been granted in Belgium, dated February 5, 1897, No. 126,163; in Canada, dated April 20, 1897, No. 55,660; in Denmark, dated July 29, 1897, No. 1,189; in Germany, dated December 24, 1896, No. 95,375; in France, dated February 5, 1897, No. 263,757; in Great Britain, dated February 5, 1897, No. 3,129; in Italy, dated March 31, 1897, XXXII, 43,789, LXXXV, 389; in Norway, dated February 5, 1897, No. 5,666; in Austria, dated February 24, 1897, No. 47/573; in Portugal, dated September 4, 1897, No. 2,425; in Sweden, dated February 5, 1897, No. 8,760; in Switzerland, dated February 5, 1897, No. 13,958; in Spain, dated March 6, 1897, No. 20,354, liber 27, folio 38, and in Hungary, dated February 5, 1897 No. 9,132 5) and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters of refer ence marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention has relation to the utilization of pulverulent fuel as a means for producing heat, generally and particularly as a heating agent for steam-generators.
The danger of explosion inherent to the use i of pulverulent fuel as coal-dust, for induced to a pulverulent condition, and perhaps dried before reduction, the cost of the plant and the cost of labor or transportation have heretofore not been in such relation to the increased effects or better results derived from the use of pulverulent fuel as to render such use generally practicable.
My invention has for its object to overcome these difficulties, and this object I attain by the provision of means whereby fuel in a raw unprepared state is brought into a finely-divided state, held in suspension in a body of air, and is in this condition continuously fed or supplied to the combustion-chamber under the action of revolving arms in such manher as to avoid all danger of explosion; also, by the provision of means whereby the fuel can be reduced to the required degree of fineness before being fed to the combustion-chamber when solid or partly-solid and partly-pulverulent fuel is-usedas, for instance, the so-called buckwheat coal and culm; also, in the provision of means for supplying to the finely-divided fuel the required air for combustion and when necessary for the drying of such fuel.
- The operation of feeding the fuel to the combustion-chamber consists, essentially, in continuously conveying the fuel-laden air to the combustion-chamber under the action of the revolving heaters or radial arms in suitably-regulated quantities through. a finelyperforated plate, thereby avoiding the danger of formation of explosive compounds within the combustion-chamber, means being provided to prevent the ignition of the fuel-laden air before it actually reaches the combustionchamber.
That my invention may be fully understood I will describe the same in detail, reference being had to the drawings hereto annexed, wherein I have illustrated my said invention in its application to a stationary steam-generator having two combustion chambers or flues.
Figure 1 is a front elevation, Figs. 2 and 3 part longitudinal sectional views, and Fig. 4
a sectional detail end elevation, thereof. 7
Across the boiler-front, above the cornbustion-flues F, I arrange a conveyer-trough 0, containing a screw conveyor 3, (shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1,) and above said conveyer, in suitable bearings, a revoluble shaft w, carrying two sets of fast and loose beltpulleys w w and a stepped pulley 10 Any suitable driving mechanism may be provided for the elevator f and conveyer 8. Thus, for instance, there may be a belt-pulley on the upper elevator-drum belted to a pulley on the conveyershaft, and the latter may carry another pulley belted to one on shaft w, or a separate driving mechanism are not matters of invention, in that they come within the province of the skilled mechanic, I have not deemed it necessary to illustrate the same.
To the outer open end of or entrance to the combustion -fiues F, which are preferably lined with a refractory material (1, Figs. 2 and 3, I secure an apertured plate d, to which a crusher-casing B is bolted or otherwise secured, from one of the heads of which extends in an upward direction a feed pipe or duct a, that is surmounted by an enlarged feed hopper or chamber g, which opens into the conveyer-trough O. In the connection between the feed-chamber g and conveyortrough O, I interpose a cut-off slide or gate 3, pivotally connected to one end of an operating-lever g, fulcrumed on said chamber, the fuel being fed to the conveyer by a suitable elevator, as the bucket elevator f, discharging into a hopper f on the conveyer-trough.
As will be readily understood, each of the combustion-chambers has a crusher-casing B connected with the conveyer-trough O, and as both are alike in construction and operated from the shaft 10, hereinbefore mentioned, a full understanding of their construction and operation may be had from the description of one of them. The casing B has bearingbrackets 11 for the crusher-shaft b, which carries a fast belt-pulley b belted to a like pulley w on shaft to, hereinbefore referred to. The inner and side faces of the heads of said casing B, which is substantially cylindrical, are serrated or provided with cutting edges b Fig. 3, that coact with beaters or radial crushing-arms b on said crush er-shaft. That portion of the casing B in front of the opening in the head-plates d for the combustion-flue F is removed and a plate 6 with fine perforations inserted of the form of a segment of a circle concentric with the circle formed by the inner periphery of the casing. The fine perforations of this plate 19 increase in diameter outwardly or toward the combustion-flue F for the purpose of avoiding as much as possible the liability to become clogged or choked up.
The object of the heaters or radial arms I) revolving with high speed during the operation of crushing is to produce a propelling action, whereby the particles of coal-dust are conducted with air through the fine perforations in the plate 19 into the combustion-flue to be there immediately consumed.
In the plates (1 below the casings B, I provide a shaft-aperture leading into the combustion-fiue F and provided with a draftregulating slide 61 for the admission of such additional quantities of air as may be required for the combustion. Generally but little air need be admitted through the draftapertures, as I propose to supply the air or at least the greater portion of the air necessary to the combustion of the fuel to the latter, and to promote the combustion I preferably heat the air before admitting it to the fuel. To this end I locate two pipes obelow the boiler B Fig. 2, connected to a branch a of the feed-tubes a for the crusher, Figs. 2 and 3. The inlet to said pipes may be at a point sufficiently remote from the boiler-front to admitof the preheating of the air before it reaches the feed-duct a. Above the branch a of feed-duct a I arrange a cylindrical revoluble feed-valve h, having pockets h in diametrically opposite faces, the valves for both feed-ducts being secured to a common spindle c, that carries a toothed wheel 1; in gear with a like wheel a on a shaft u, Figs. 1 and 2, that also carries a stepped pulley 10 belted to a like pulley 10 on shaft w and hereinbefore referred to and for well-known purposes.
WVhen the crusher is in operation, the heat transmitted from the fines dries the fuel should it be wet, and the finely-divided fuel is carried along under the propelling action of the heaters through the fine perforations in the plate b into the combustion-flue, where it is immediately consumed, so that a combustible compound liable to explode within the combustion-fines cannot be formed prior to the combustion of the fuel.
The finely-perforated plate 5 not only performs the function of a feed and distributing plate, but also acts as shield or guard against back flashing or back fire that might resultin explosion within the crusher-casing.
By means of the feed-valves h the amount of raw fuelfed to the duct a from the feedchamber can be regulated according to requirements by varying the speed of rotation thereof through the medium of the stepped pulleys 10 10 as will be readily understood.
From the above description the operation of the crushing appliances and the mode of feeding the fuel to the combustion-fines will be readily understood and need therefore not be amplified.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new therein, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
