Definitions

  • ABSTRACT Apparatus that includes a rotary drum having its axis extending substantially horizontally and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the coke oven battery is positioned adjacent to the discharge end of a coke oven chamber to receive coke pushed from the chamber through a coke guide.
  • the rotary drum is supported on rollers and is arranged to rotate as the coke is introduced into the drum to displace coke from the bottom quadrant of the drum chamber and provide space for receiving additional quantities of coke from the same coke oven chamber.
  • the inner wall of the rotatable drum has pocket type lifter devices thereon to convey the coke upwardly in the chambers and also to discharge the coke into a chute that extends outwardly from the drum chamber.
  • the drum is rotatably supported in a housing that has air cleaning devices thereon to remove the dust generated during the coke discharging operation.
  • a water spray device is positioned within the drum to quench the coke as it is discharged from the coke oven.
  • Co-pending application Ser. No. 187,404, entitled Material Transfer Apparatus For A Rotary Drum, filed Oct. 7, I971 discloses dust collecting apparatus positioned adjacent the discharge end of the drum.
  • the coke is discharged from the drum onto an endless conveyor.
  • the drum type receivers have in the past been employed as quenching devices and there is a need for a drum type receiver that is arranged to receive the coke from the coke oven chamber and to displace at least a portion of the coke from the lower quadrant of the drum receiver chamber while additional coke is introduced into the drum receiver chamber. Further, there is a need for a drum type hot coke receiver that receives coke from a coke oven chamber without discharging dust into the atmosphere.
  • the present invention is directed primarily to improvements in receivers for hot coke that is being pushed from a horizontal coke oven' chamber and includes a drum type receiver mounted on a movable support member.
  • the drum type receiver is arranged to be pushed adjacent the coke discharge end of the coke oven chambers with the axis of the drum extending substantially horizontally and perpendicular to the coke oven battery.
  • the drum receiver has a chamber rotatable about the drum axis with a central opening for introducing coke into the drum receiver chamber from the coke oven and an outlet opening to discharge the coke from the drum receiver chamber.
  • a coke oven guide connects the outlet opening of the coke oven chamber with the central inlet opening of the drum receiver and the coke discharged through the coke oven guide is deposited in the lower quadrant of the drum receiver chamber.
  • the drum receiver is rotated about its axis to displace at least a portion of the coke in the lower quadrant of the drum receiver chamber to provide space for additional coke discharged from the coke oven.
  • a housing encloses the drum receiver and has an open upper end portion. Filter members close the housing open end portion and suitable suction means are provided to collect the dust formed in the receiver chamber in the filtermeans.
  • the drum receiver has a plurality of annular ring members which are supported on roller members which, in turn, are supported on the movable support membenCertain of the rollers are driven to rotate the drum receiver and displace the coke within the lower guadrant of the drum receiver chamber.
  • Other rollers are provided to abut the side walls of one of the ring members to maintain the drum receiver on the support member and permit longitudinal expansion and contraction of the drum member.
  • the housing enclosing the drum receiver has a side opening with, parallel rail members supported thereby.
  • the coke guide is supported on the rail members and is movable into the central opening of the drum receiver when not in'use.
  • FIG. 1 is a view of the coke receiving apparatus in elevation and partially in section.
  • FIG. 2 is a view of the coke receiving apparatus taken parallel to the longitudinal axis of the coke oven battery, illustrating a coke guide device between the outlet opening of a coke oven chamber and the inlet opening of the coke receiving apparatus.
  • FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the coke receiving apparatus, illustrating the dust filters and suction fans.
  • a coke oven battery generally designated by the numeral 10 that includes a plurality of transversely extending coke oven chambers 12.
  • the coke oven battery has a coke discharge side 14 in which the coke oven chambers 12 have coke discharge openings 16.
  • the coke formed in the coke oven chambers 12 is discharged through the discharge opening 16 into coke receiving apparatus which is generally designated by the numeral 18.
  • a conventional coke guide 20 that is supported on a coke guide car 22.
  • the coke guide 20 is arranged to conduct the coke discharged from the coke oven chamber 12 to the coke receiving apparatus 18.
  • the coke receiving apparatus 18 includes a rotary drum receiver 24 that has an axis 26 illustrated by the line in FIG. 2.
  • the drum receiver 24 has a generally annular configuration with a pair of spaced annular side plates 28 and polygonal end plates 30 that provide a generally U-shaped cross section for the drum receiver 24.
  • the annular side plates 28 have a central opening 32 through which the coke is discharged from the coke guide 20 into the chamber of the drum receiver 24.
  • the drum receiver 24 is mounted on a movable support member 34 that is, in turn, mounted on wheels 36.
  • Rails 38 extend parallel to and along thecoke dis charge side 14 of coke oven battery 10 and the movable support member 34 is arranged to move on the rails 38 to position the coke receiving apparatus 18 opposite a selected coke oven chamber 12.
  • Pairs of rollers 40 are mounted on supports 42 which extend upwardly from the support member 34.
  • the drum receiver 24 has a pair of ring like tires or bearing surfaces 44 secured to the outer wall 30 and are supported on the rollers 40. In this manner the drum receiver 24 is rotatably supported on rollers 40. Suitable drive means such as a diesel engine or the like (not shown) are connected to certain of the rollers 40 and arranged to rotate the rollers 40 which, in turn, rotate the drum receiver 24 about the axis 26. As illustrated in FIG. 2, a pair of rollers 46 are suitably mounted with their axes 48 substantially vertical and the lower surfaces abut the side walls of the bearing member 44. With this arrangement, the rollers 46 maintain the rotatable drum receiver on the movable support member 34 and permit expansion and contraction of the metallic drum receiver 24.
  • Suitable drive means such as a diesel engine or the like (not shown) are connected to certain of the rollers 40 and arranged to rotate the rollers 40 which, in turn, rotate the drum receiver 24 about the axis 26.
