Int. Cl. B23q 17/00; C21b 11/00 US. Cl. 29-403 7 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A system for hot de-oiling and hot briquetting material wherein the material is heated to burn off or vaporize foreign substances and is then transported to a briquetting machine for forming of the material into briquets. The improvements of the invention relate to a furnace construction and method of operation for heating the material. The furnace construction includes a single hearth providing a combustion zone whereby the material can be fed to the combustion zone from inlet means defined at the side of the furnace. An outlet is defined in the hearth and movable rake means are provided for moving the materials within the furnace to the outlet for discharge and for delivery of the materials to briquetting equipment.
This application is a division of copending application Ser. No. 721,474, filed Apr. 15, 1968, and now Pat. No. 3,497,190.
This invention relates to a system for hot de-oiling and hot briquetting. The invention is particularly concerned with the processing of materials such as crushed turnings, chips, borings, and other metal scrap, for example, those materials consumed in melting shops.
The briquetting of scrap materials such as turnings and borings has been recognized as a highly economical and efficient procedure. Turnings and borings have a composition which makes them highly suitable for use in charging operations in a foundry. These materials are readily available at low cost and, to add to the efficiency, they are often produced in a machine shop near a melting shop.
The turnings and borings have certain drawbacks, however, due to the fact that they are very small dimensionally and are usually coated with oil and water. These characteristics make them highly undesirable as additives in a cupola or in an electric furnace.
By hot de-oiling and hot briquetting the turnings and borings, the drawbacks referred to can be overcome. The briquets produced are of satisfactory size and density so that the original size of the turnings and borings is of no consequence when briquets are formed for addition to a melting furnace. Similarly, the oil and water on the turnings and borings is vaporized off as a regular step in the briquetting procedure so that the briquetted product will be virtually free of any oil and water traces.
The presence of oil on the turnings and borings presents another distinct advantage during hot briquetting. Thus, the oil serves as a fuel which is consumed as the oil is removed. This provides an ideal means for controlling temperature and non-oxidizing conditions in the combustion zone of a furnace employed for removing the oil. The air-to-fuel ratio within the furnace can be maintained at a desired level to provide a temperature of desired magnitude.
The system of this invention is also designed to eliminate adverse conditions which can arise due to the burning of the oil. Specifically, excess oil vapors and smoke can cause highly undesirable air pollution, and afterburner 3,616,515 Patented Nov. 2, 1971 means are provided for burning the excess oil to eliminate this problem. In addition, the discharge from the system can be scrubbed by suitable mechanisms to further reduce the introduction of contaminants into the air.
It is a general object of this invention to provide improvements in hot briquetting and hot de-oiling, particularly with respect to improvements in furnace constructions employed for removing foreign substances such as oil and water from the surfaces of the materials and simultaneously preheating the materials for briquetting or other use.
It is a more particular object of this invention to pro- Wide a furnace construction of the type described which is relatively low in cost and which operates with a high degree of efficiency, dependability and economy.
It is a still further object of this invention to provide a furnace design which is particularly suitable for the treatment of discharge from the furnace for purposes of burning excess oil vapor and for avoiding the entrainment of dust in off-gases whereby little or no dust is carried from the furnace to the afterburner, scrubber and/or atmosphere.
These and other objects of this invention will appear hereinafter and for purposes of illustration, but not of limitation, specific embodiments of the invention are shown in the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration of a hot briquetting system of the type contemplated by this invention;
FIG. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the furnace construction used in the briquetting system of the type shown in FIG. '1; and,
FIG. 3 is a horizontal sectional view taken about the line 3-3 of FIG. 2.
The system of this invention is specifically designed for the processing of material such as turnings and borings. In accordance with prior practice, the turnings and borings are placed in a furnace construction for purposes of burning olf foreign substances such as oil from the surfaces of the turnings and borings. The hot materials are then transported to a briquetting machine for forming into briquets or utilized for other purposes. Although the invention will be described with reference to the treatment of metal, other materials can also be advantageously handled in these systems. For example, ores which have a fuel associated with the material when it is introduced into the furnace can be treated in accordance with the principles to be described.
In prior constructions employed for heating of the turnings and borings, it was thought necessary to provide a carefully constructed furnace which included different zones characterized by distinct operations. Thus, a central zone of such furnaces provided a primary combustion zone into which material to be briquetted was introduced. Means were provided for blowing the material into the furnace to scatter the particles since this was thought necessary to provide sufficient heat transfer.
A supplemental heating zone equipped with burners was located beneath the primary zone. Rakes were provided for gradually moving the material so that the material would eventually drop through the two heating zones.
Above the primary zone, an afterburner was provided. By the introduction of air into this afterburner zone, unburned oil vapors would be burned in the afterburner thereby reducing contamination of the atmosphere. Rakes were utilized in this zone for returning settled dust which collected on the floor of the afterburner chamber.
The instant invention provides a system for accomplishing hot processing of metal pieces in a more economical and efficient manner when compared with prior systems. It has been found that furnaces having a single particles can be virtually eliminated. Excess air is only introduced in the afterburner zone of the various constructions.
It will be understood that various changes and modifications may be made in the above described systems which provide the characteristics of this invention without departing from the spirit thereof.
