  • FIG. 8 LINEAR GRATE FOR SHAFT KILNS 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Filed Oct. 24, 1966 FIG. 8
  • a discharge grate for circular shaft kilns has at least one generally rectangular opening with a retarder plate juxtaposed below the opening therein, and a linear pusher bar is mounted in the space above the retarder plate so that on reciprocating motion it moves material off the edges of the retarder plate.
  • the bar configuration is such that material discharged from the kiln is uniform across the lateral extent of the kiln.
  • This invention relates to improvements in shaft kilns, and particularly to the discharge grate for such units.
  • a gravity flow vessel having an upper feed and a lower discharge.
  • Such vessels may have a longer vertical extent than their cross-sectional dimensions.
  • Such vessels are called shaft or vertical kilns, shaft furnaces, shaft generators, and the like, depending on the type of treatment and the material being treated.
  • Such devices are useful for burning or calcining lime, coking coal, burning magnesite, dolomite, retorting oil shalt, etc.
  • the equipment is generally the type well known for various treatments, and commonly they include the vertical vessel having means for uniformly feeding granular or pulverulent material across the lateral extent of the vessel, a lower discharge means for providing a uniform discharge across the lateral extent of the kiln, and some means for introducing a stream of treating fluid through the pulverulent material.
  • the majority of known installations have been rectangular kilns of relatively small cross-sectional dimensions. Also, some circular shaft kilns have been tried, but due to their limited diameters and lack of control of uniform movement of the particulate material through the kiln, they have not been received with favor in the industry.
  • a major problem occurs with such equipment on increasing the cross-sectional dimensions, and that is to provide a uniform downward movement of material throughout the cross-sectional extent of the kiln from the top to a lower section adjacent the discharge end so as to aid uniform treatment of all of the material as it passes through the kiln.
  • an object of the invention to provide an apparatus to uniformly remove solids from the bottoms of shaft furnaces or kilns and to provide for uniform downward movement of solids throughout the cross-sectional extent of some such kilns from the top to adjacent the bottom thereof.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a discharge apparatus for shaft kilns so as to distribute treatment fluids uniformly throughout the material moving through the kiln.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view, partly cut away, of a discharge grate mounted in a vertical kiln according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the discharge grate illustrated in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the grate section of the device of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 4 is an enlarged detailed view of a material pusher bar arrangement of the grate illustrated in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 5 is a top plan view, illustrating schematically another embodiment of a grate according to the invention.
  • FIG. 6 is an enlarged detailed view of a portion of the grate, taken along section line 66 of FIG. 5;
  • FIG. 7 is a diagrammatic plan view of a portion of a kiln grate segregated into discharge zones, illustrating a determination of the configuration of a pusher bar;
  • FIG. 8 is a vertical section through a portion of the kiln, illustrating the same discharge areas of FIG. 7;
  • FIG. 9 is an enlarged detailed view of a pusher bar section showing the configuration of a segment of the bar of a portion of the discharge area illustrated in FIGS. 7 and 8.
  • the apparatus of the invention provides grate or discharge means for removal of material from a vertical shaft kiln
  • the grate means includes flow diverters mounted adjacent the bottom of a shaft kiln.
  • the flow diverters are arranged in a linear pattern, producing generally linear outlets in a symmetrical pattern about the center or axis of the vessel.
  • the flow diverters are arranged to form one or more generally rectangular discharge openings in the bottom of the kiln, each of which extends linearly from one side to the other side across the bottom of a kiln.
  • the flow diverters provide openings through which the solids may flow freely without bridging between adjacent diverter plates.
  • the diverter plates may be composed of flat plates, generally horizontally arranged in relation to the axis of a kiln, or they may be two plates joined together as an angle with an angle of less than therebetween.
  • the angle of each plate is preferably arranged at an angle to the horizontal which is at least as great, and preferably greater, than the angle of repose of the material being treated.
  • Material flow retarders are mounted below and in juxtaposition with the openings, but the retarders are spaced far enough below the opening so as to retard direct flow of solids through the opening and the pulverulent material is retained in the kiln.
  • Pusher means are mounted in the space between the retarder plates and the diverter plates for mechanically releasing the solids resting on the retarder plates and thereby provide movement of the material through the kiln.
  • the pusher means extend completely across the retarder plates, and are arranged to be activated in a generally reciprocating action across the plates to provide a controlled release of material from the kiln.
  • the geometry of the pusher means is arranged to provide a discharge of material such that downward movement of the column of material supported above the discharge openings and the adjacent diverter plates is uniform across the lateral extent of the kiln.
  • the design of the grate is arranged as a volumetric discharge mechanism, and the pushers control the flow of solids to provide the uniform downward movement of the contained materials across the lateral extent of the vessel. This provides a uniform movement of the solids in relation of their mass to the cross-sectional dimensions of the vessel.
  • the configuration of the pusher means i arranged so that the ratio of the distance of the supported column of material passing through the discharge opening at any point divided by the height of the pusher at that point is a constant.
  • FIGS. l-4 demonstrates a grate with four openings in a circular vessel.
  • the invention is applicable to grates having one or more openings, the number of openings in the grate being determined by numerou considerations, including particle size and kind, the size of the kiln, etc.
  • a shaft kiln with upright walls 10 which is preferably circular but may be elliptical or similar configurations, is provided with a grate structure shown in general by numeral 12.
  • the kiln wall extends upwardly to a predetermined height, as determined by the treatment desired, only a portion of which is shown for purposes of the present invention.
  • the kiln may be provided with a conical or equivalent configuration bottom 14 providing a single central outlet 16 for the release of solid material which passes the grate 12.
  • an inlet conduit 18 is provided through the wall of the bottom 14 for injecting fluid into the space therein, for subsequent movement up through the grate and through the material in the kiln.
  • some means must be provided for the discharge of solid material through the single opening with sealing means to prevent discharge of fluids.
  • a star feeder, or the like may be used for such purposes.
  • kilns are arranged for the treatment of material at elevated temperatures, and such kilns have a wall which is lined with a refractory, etc.
  • the four-opening grate illustrated includes five deflector or diverter plates 20, 21, 22, 23 and 24, providing the four generally linear or rectangular openings between the diverter plates.
  • the end diverter plates 20 and 24 are mounted adjacent the wall of the kiln and each must have an arcuate configuration on its outside edge where it intersects the wall to conform with the geometry of the wall.
  • These two diverter plates are, also, provided with a straight inside edge, the chord of a circle, for forming a side for the linear opening.
  • Angularly shaped diverter plates 21, 22 and 23 are spaced across the remaining distance of the kiln to provide the four openings.
  • Each of the diverter plates 21, 22 and 23 extends completely across the kiln and the space between each pair of adjacent diverter plates has linear sides and curved ends coincident with the wall of the kiln.
  • the diverter plates are two planar members welded together and angle shaped, and the angle between the two plates should be substantially less than 180.
  • the angle between the two plates is normally determined by the angle of repose of the material treated, that is, that angle of the plate from the horizontal on which the pulverulent material will not rest but will slide off the plate.
  • a flat plate is used as a diverter plate
  • a triangular shaped static bed of material will remain above the plate, and the cross-sectional area of the 4 static bed is equal to one-half the width of the diverter plate times its height.
  • the height of material is determined by the angle of repose of the pulverulent material in itself and this may exceed the 60 angle.
  • the preferred form is the angular diverter plates to provide a smooth flow of material into the opening.
  • the grate is arranged to discharge a column of material of greater cross-sectional dimensions than the dimensions of the discharge openings.
  • Each opening discharges from a column which is bounded by the wall at each end and imaginary planes which extend vertically from the peak of the diverter plates.
  • all of the material across the lateral extent must move downwardly of the column at a uniform rate.
  • the opening 26, for example must discharge all the material in the column bounded by the planes from the peaks of diverter plates 21 and 22 and the wall at each end thereof.
  • the openings 25, 27 and 28 between the other deflector plates must discharge all the material in the column thereabove.
  • the material in the column is prevented from flowing out the openings 25-28, inclusive, by means of a retainer plate spaced below each of the openings.
  • a plate 30 is mounted below the opening 25 and prevents the material from passing therethrough.
  • the distance at which the plate is placed below the opening is generally determined by the size of material in the column to prevent bridging of the material between the bottom edge of the deflector plate and the retarder plate.
  • the retarder plate edges must extend underneath the deflector plates to prevent a free flow of material over its edge into the conical bottom 14. The distance of the edge of the retarder plate under the deflector plate is determined by the angle of repose of the material on itself.
  • Retarder plate 31 is mounted below the opening 26
  • retarder plate 32 is mounted below the opening 27
  • retarder plate 33 is mounted below the opening 28.
  • pusher bars are provided at each opening for the controlled movement of material resting on the retarder plates at a rate so that the column above each point on the pusher bar moves downwardly uniformly across the extent of the kiln.
  • a column of material supported by the retarder plate 31 between the diverter plates 21 and 22 is discharged over the edges of the plate 31 by means of a pusher bar 41.
  • the material supported between the imaginary planes passing axially of the kiln from the peaks of the two diverter plates 21 and 22 must pass through the openings over the edges of plate 31.
  • the distance b between the peaks of the two diverter plates is uniform until the peak of diverter plate 21 intersects the wall of the kiln and the height of the pusher is uniform.
  • the width of the column of material decreases around to the intersection of the peak of diverter 22 and the wall.
  • the height of the pusher bar is uniform.
  • the height of the pusher bar must decrease to maintain constant the ratio of the width of the column divided by the height of the pusher bar.
  • the pusher bar is extended into a notch 63 at one end and a notch 64 at the opposite end, FIG. 4.
  • the pusher is in close proximity to the wall at all positions of movement and the material along and adjacent to the wall is moved through the opening in the manner of the material in the center of the pusher bars.
  • the height of the bar is changed to compensate for the difference in volume of material to be moved.
  • pusher bar 41 reciprocate in the opening between the deflector plates on the retarder plates.
  • pusher bar 41 for example, is interconnected to pusher bar 40 by means of piston rods 42 and 43.
  • the piston rods are actuated by motors 44 and 45 for movement of the pusher bars in the openings.
  • motors 44 and 45 are interconnected by means of rods 51 and 52 which are activated by motors 48 and 49.
  • the motors may be hydraulic motors to prvide a reciprocating movement of the pusher bars.
  • air motors may be used for movement of the rods for reciprocating the bars.
  • rotary motors with eccentrics may likewise be used.
  • a reciprocating motor is preferred, however, as it easily gives a measure of control and a change of the stroke of the bars for changing the movement of flow of the material through a kiln.
  • the actuating motors may, of course, be positioned in the kiln where desired.
  • the height of the pusher bar at a particular point multiplied by the area on the retarder plate across which it moves is the volume of material moved at that point. Since the area over which the bar 41 moves is uniform across its extent, the change of height of the bar provides for the change in volume of material moved.
  • the retarder plates may be mounted to provide adjustable distances from the divider plates so that adjustments of the grate may be made in the field by changing the position of the retarder plates.
  • the pushers rest on the plates and for economical reasons, they should have hardened guides that slide on the retarder plates; however, the pushers may be mounted on rollers or the like to aid the movement of the same across the retarder plates.
  • the four-opening grate shown in FIGS. 1-4 is useful for large diameter kilns.
  • the two center pushers have a long, uniform height, middle section with tapering ends.
  • the two outermost pushers must be tapered from the center to the ends because of the curvature of the wall, which changes the width of the supported column, and which starts curving from the midpoint of the opening.
  • the distance between the peak of the inner diverter 21 or 23 and the wall from the midpoint around to the intersection of the peak with the wall is progressively decreasing.
  • the top edge of the pusher bar is generally arcuate, following the formula representing that distance between the wall and the peak of the inner diverter divided by the height of the pusher is a constant ratio.
  • a five-opening grate would utilize a center pusher having a uniform height substantially completely across its extent with only minor tapered ends. As the number of openings is reduced, however, the configuration of the pusher bars or blades is considerably changed.
  • a two-opening grate is provided for a kiln and the height of the pusher bar must vary from the center to the ends in accordance with the formula.
  • a kiln 70 is provided with a grate having two openings 71 and 72 in which a pusher bar is mounted.
  • a deflector plate shown in general by numeral 73, is mounted centerwise of the kiln and two opposed side deflector plates 74L and 74R are mounted on each side thereof.
  • the shape of the deflector plate 73 is angular; however, a top piece or a bonnet is provided to permit the injection of a fluid, such as a gas, into the granular material.
  • the deflector includes plates 75 and 76 which are joined t0- gether at an angle forming a peak.
  • the peak is covered by plates 78 and 79 which are joined together to form angular plates of approximately the configuration of the plates 75 and 76 having a peak 77.
  • the angle between both sets of plates, i.e., 7576 and 78-79, is such that the angle of each plate from the horizontal is at least as great, and preferably greater, than the angle of repose of the material so that there will be no hangs of material in the kiln due to the deflector plates.
  • the side deflector plates 74L and 74R are secured in position and supported by supports 82 in accordance with conventional structural practice.
  • a retarder plate 85 is mounted below the opening 72 (between edges 74a and 76a of the two diverter plates 74L and 74R) and a retarder plate 86 is mounted below the other discharge opening 71.
  • Pusher bars 88 and 89 are respectively mounted in the openings 72 and 71 to move material reposed on the retarder plates into the bottom of the kiln, in accordance with that explained above.
  • FIGS. 7, 8 and 9 illustrate the change in shape of the pusher bar in relation to the amount of material which must be moved to provide a uniform flow of material in the column extending above and beyond the discharge opening. As shown in FIG.
  • imaginary columns of equal width are set off in a portion of the kiln to illustrate the changing dimensions which must be accounted for by the configuration of the pusher bar.
  • the column marked G has its one end along the wall 70 and the other on the peak 77 of the diverter plate 73. This area is larger than the adjacent area H due to the wall curvature, and H is larger than I, etc., down to the area marked R.
  • the decrease in area, and consequently the volume of the column extending upwardly along planes at right angles to the boundaries of the area, is decreasing along the curvature of the wall 70*.
  • the amount of material in each column is decreasing (but the grate opening remains constant until area 0) and the amount of material which must be moved by the pusher bar from the column, likewise, decreases from the center to the edge.
  • the formula given above, where the width of the column at any one position along the pusher rod divided by the height of the pusher bar at that position, is a constant is used to determine the configuration of the pusher.
  • the maximum width of the largest column (at the lateral center of the kiln) determines the constant, and since the distance of the width of the column at any point is known, the height of the pusher bar at that point may be readily determined. In FIG.
  • the point M represents the effective midpoint of the area of a column of material acted on by the pusher and the height H the effective height at the center of the area, representing the average between the edges, is determined from the constant, and the average width of the area W of FIG. 9.
  • the width W- of each area is uniform in the diagrams, for purposes of calculation.
  • the configuration is generally arcuate from end to end, and for the two-opening grate shown in FIG. 5, both pusher bars have arcuate tops.
  • the pusher bar is, likewise, arcuate from the high point in the center to low points in the ends.
  • the pusher has a uniform height central portion and tapered ends. In all cases, the pusher ends extend into a notch in the kiln wall, providing material movement adjacent the wall.
  • the deflector plate shown in FIG. 6, including the bonnet, is provided with a series of openings 90 and 91 spaced across the extent of the lower angled plate, which permits fluid to pass upwardly into the bonnet, around its lower edges and into the bed of material in the kiln.
  • Fluid may be injected beneath the diverter plate by means of conduits passing through the wall to the underside of the diverter plates.
  • perforated pipes or the like placed under the plates will provide means for injecting the fluid into the bed.
  • the height of the adjacent diverters may be varied and the diverters and retainer plates may be staggered in the kiln to meet certain operating conditions.
  • Grate means for a hollow cylindrical member having its axis upright comprising a series of spaced-apart deflector plates extending from one side to the opposed side of the wall of the cylindrical member providing at least one essentially rectangular opening across a lower end of said member, said rectangular opening being defined by the straight edges of said deflector plates extending generally along the chords of said cylindrical member and the wall of said member; a material support plate mounted below and spaced from each said at least one opening and having its edges extending under the edge of each deflector plate to prevent a space therebetween along vertical lines; pusher means mounted in the space between said deflector plates and said support plate, said pusher means intersecting said wall at both ends and at positions of movement in said rectangular opening, said pusher means being arranged to sweep a uniform amount of material incrementally along its length in relation to the volume of material in said member at each incremental position on said pusher means; and means for reciprocally moving said pusher means across each said support plate.
