Definitions
- the invention relates to a kiln for firing industrial articles, particularly a kiln for firing ceramic articles.
- kilns for firing ceramic articles comprising art external structure defining a firing chamber lined with refractory material, through which ceramic articles, arranged in transversal rows, are advanced, for example on planes of motorized rollers.
- burners are arranged having heads projecting into the firing chamber in which the combustion of the fuel feeding the burners takes place for providing heat necessary for firing the ceramic articles.
- the kiln has a modular arrangement, i.e.
- the firing chamber has a substantially rectangular cross section. This shape of the firing chamber, the arrangement and number of burners in each section of the kiln causes a non-uniform distribution of temperature in the firing chamber, so generating temperature stratification zones, which causes non-uniform firing of the products, possible damages due to different firing temperature for the product of a same row, greater consumption of fuel.
- the present invention is intended to provide a kiln for firing industrial articles, particularly ceramic articles, in which the distribution of temperature within the firing chamber is as uniform as possible.
- a kiln for firing industrial articles comprising a structure internally defining a firing chamber inside which said articles are advanced on advancing means, refractory means for lining said firing chamber, a plurality of burners arranged along side walls of said firing chamber, characterized in that said firing chamber comprises anti-stratification means suitable for preventing temperature stratification zones from forming inside said firing chamber.
- a distribution of temperature as uniform as possible may be obtained in the firing chamber, which allows a better and more regular firing of the articles and smaller consumption of fuel to be obtained.
- the kiln 1 comprises a structure 2 in which a chamber 3 for firing industrial articles, for example ceramic articles, is defined.
- the chamber 3 is defined laterally by side walls 4, 4a, each provided with refractory lining 5, 5a, at the top by a vault also provided with a refractory lining 7, and at the bottom by a floor 8 made of refractory material.
- the refractory lining 7 is fixed to the vault of the kiln by hook means 12, for example brackets.
- a plurality of transversal motorized rollers 9 are arranged in the chamber 3, said rollers defining an advancing plane for the articles to be fired in the chamber 3.
- Two rows of burners 10, 11 are arranged on the side walls 4 of the chamber 3, a first row being arranged on the wall 4a, below the plane of the roller 9 and a second row of burners 11 being arranged on the wall 4, opposite to the wall 4a, above the plane of the roller 9.
- the side end portions 13 and 14 of the refractory lining 7 of the vault 6 of the kiln are tilted downward, toward the side walls 4 and the side end portions 15 and 16 of the floor 8 of the kiln are tilted upward toward the side walls 4.
- the section of the firing chamber 3 comprises a central part having substantially even height and two side parts having height progressively decreasing toward the side walls 4. This shape promotes a circulation of air and combustion fumes produced by the burners 10 and 11, preventing air and fumes stagnation zones from being created and so ensuring a remarkably better temperature uniformity, with respect to the kilns of the state of art.
- the temperature uniformity is further improved since the height of the firing chamber 3 progressively decreases along the advancing direction of the articles to be fired, so promoting a flow of the air and of the fumes in said direction, which contributes to a further improvement of the temperature distribution.
- the height decrease of the firing chamber 3 may be, for example, equal to 1%, i.e. about 1 centimetre per linear metre. Said height decrease may be obtained shaping the vault 6 tilted downward along the advancing direction of the articles to be fired.
- the floor 8 of the chamber 3 may be tilted upward along the advancing direction of the articles to be fired.
- the kiln 1 comprises a row of modular units 17, 17a, 17b, 17c, having substantially equal length, one of which is shown in Figure 2, while Figure 3 shows three modular units arranged in a sequence.
- the modular units 17, 17a, 17b, 17c are coordinated so as to obtain the height decrease of the firing chamber 3 along the whole length of the kiln 1.
- the tilt of the vault 6 and of the floor 8 are shown more greater than they are in reality, only for emphasizing purpose.
- Each modular unit 17, 17a, 17b, 17c is provided, at each side, with two groups each comprising three burners, a first group of three burners 10 being arranged below the plane of the rollers 9and a second group of three burners 11 being arranged above the plane of the rollers 9.
- each modular unit having the same length of a modular unit of prior art kilns comprises a further burner for each group, that is, on the whole, four further burners for each modular unit 17, 17a, 17b, 17c.
- a better heat distribution and smaller fuel consumption are obtained inside the firing chamber 3.
- the burners may be operated at a lower combustion temperature, i.e. a temperature closer to the requested firing temperature of the articles, which allows the fuel consumption of each burner to be reduced, the temperature obtained in the firing chamber 3 being the same. Furthermore, the reduction of the combustion temperature of the burners reduces the thermal shocks of the lining of the kiln 1 so increasing the service life of the kiln.
- the groups of burners 10, 11 may also comprise a different number of burners, for example the group of burners 10 may comprise three burners, while the group of burners 11 may comprise two burners, or vice versa.
- the average distance between the burners 10, 11 of each group of burners is within about 400 mm and about 850 mm depending on the length of each modular unit 17, 17a, 17b, 17c and is chosen so as to optimize the heat distribution inside each of said modular unities 17, 17a, 17b, 17c.
