SPECIFICATION forming part Of Letters Patent N0. 725,539, dated April 14, 1903.
Application filed June 2, 1902. 7 Serial No. 109,959. (No model.)
To aZZ-whom it may concern.
Be it known that we, GRANT CAMPION and Mom WYANT, citizens .ofthe United States, and residents of Anderson, in the county of Madison and Stateof Indiana, have made a certain newand-useful" Invention in Regenerator-Furnaces; and we declare the follow ing to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the invention, reference beinghad to the The invention has relation to improve-- ments in regenerator-furnaces chiefly for the manufacture of glass; and it consists in the novel construction and combinations of parts, as hereinafter set forth. In the ordinary construction of such a furnace no structural provision is made to keep the regenerator portion free from slag, which flowing thereto-clogs the regenerative chamber and stopsthe operation of the furnace until the slag is removed. In the accompanying drawings,illustrating the invention, the letter A designates the regenerator-chambers of a glass-furnace, and B the hearth, having the wall- C,--the top of which is above the level of the topsof said regenerator-chambers.
D represents the flue whereby the heat is carried to the hearth, such flue extending through the lateral upper chambers E, built at the side of the regenerator-chambers, but communicating with such chambers at their upper portion, as indicated at CL and b. The lower portion of each lateral chamber is sunken below the flue-opening and forms a slag-pocket F. A series of these flue-chambers and slag-pocketsare designed toextend along the side of the regenerator-chamber, and underneath them is formed in the masonry a storage-chamberG, which communicates with the. lowermost portion of the bot tom 0 of each slag-pocket by means of a taphole or passage H, through which the slag passes from the pocket into such storagechamber, from which. it is taken out from time to time.
. In the construction the top of the horizontal portion K of the flue D is sufficiently elevated to.permit the heated gases from the regeneratorportionof the'furnace to pass above the slag, which flows along its bottom from the hearth over into the vertical portion L of said flue and down the same into the slag-pocket F. In this way it is designed to keep the regenerator-chamber of the furnace free from slag, and thereby in the operation of furnaces of this character to save the time to such flue-chamber, the slag-storage chamber below said slag-pocket, and the passage or tap-hole from the bottom of the slag-pocket to said slag-storage chamber, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof we affix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
