EDWVIN A. MOORE, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
CONSTRUCTION OF COKE-OVENS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 725,750, dated April 21, 1903-.
Application filed September 10, 1902. Serial No. 122,753. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, EDWIN A. Moons, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and tate of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in the Construction of Coke-Ovens; 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.
My invention relates, primarily, to cokeovens of the type known as the Otto-Hoifman, has for its object improvements in the construction of such ovens, whereby the expensive metallic framework now used to support the coal-charging car is dispensed with, and consists in certain details of construction, which will be fully disclosed in the following specificationand claims.
In the accompanying drawings, which form part of this specification, Figure 1 represents an end elevation of a coke-oven, partly in section, showing my invention; Fig. 2, a side elevation of the coke-oven and the coal-charging car mounted thereon, and Fig. 3 an enlarged view of the axle at each end of the car to which the wheels are attached.
Reference being had to the drawings and the designating characters thereon, 1 indicates the metallic sections or panels for protecting the sides of the structure, 2 the metallic sections or panels for protecting the edges of the structure, and 3 the covering for the top of the oven, all of which are fullyde scribed and claimed in my application, entitled Means for protecting coke ovens, filed herewith, Serial No. 122,752.
4 indicates the hollow cast-iron pilasters, and 5 the buckstays, also shown and described in the aforesaid application. The buckstays are secured to the structure by rods 6, which cross the structure transversely and engage buckstays on opposite sides thereof, and bolts 6' above the masonry, and on top or resting upon the upper ends of the buckstays and the pilasters is a metallic I-beam 7, properly secured thereto and preferably resting upon a shoe 8 on as many buckstays and pilasters as required, and on the upper face of the I- beam and the shoe 8 rest the railroad-rails 9 on each side of the battery of ovens.
10 indicates the coal-charging car, which is of a length equal to the width of the coke ovens, is provided with chutes 11 to conduct ,coal to the openings 12 in the ovens to distribute the coal along the ovens, and is provided with a frame of structural iron secured together in the usual way. The frame is composed of beams 13, of channel-iron, resting upon transverse girders 14, which in turnrest upon columns 15 15 at one end of the car and 16 16 at the opposite end and which columns are connected at .their lower ends to sills 17 17 at one end and 18 18 at the opposite end, and to the said sills are secured the car-axle boxes 19 19 and 20 20. Suitable braces 21 are interposed as found necessary to stifien the frame, and in the center of the car a platform 22 is supported by vertical bars 23 23, from which platform a ladder 24 rises to enable the operator to mount to the seat 25, from which the car is controlled in the usual manner of operating electrical motors.
26 indicates the axles of the car, supported in the axle-boxes 19 and on which are looselymounted wheels 27 to move laterally on said axle to provide for the expansion and contraction of the masonry of the structure. The car-wheels are provided with flanges 28 on each side of the tread of the wheel to prevent the wheels slipping ed the rails while moving laterally, and on one of said axles at each end of the car is a gear-wheel 29, which is engaged by a pinion 30 on each end of shaft 31, having a master gear-wheel 32, engaged by a pinion 33 on the shaft 34 of a motor 35, preferably an electrical motor, the wiring of which to conduct the electric current is not shown. The car after having been filled with coal from a suitable source of supply is moved along the battery of ovens and the coal discharged as required.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim is- 1. A coke-oven having rails on each side thereof; in combination Witha coal-charging car having laterally-movable wheels engaging said rails.
2. A coke-oven having rails on each side thereof; in combination with a coal-charging car having axles provided with laterally-movable wheels engaging said rails, a gear-wheel on one of said axles on each side of the car, and a motor connected to said gear-wheels.
3. A coke-oven having rails on each side thereof; in combination with a coal-charging car having a plurality of dischargechutes, a plurality of feed-openings in the oven under said chutes, laterally-movable wheels on the [6 car engaging said rails, and means for moving the car.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
