EDVIN E. SLICK AND THOMAS MORRISON, OF BRADDOCK, PENNSYLVANIA.
CINDER-CAR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent NO. 603,1 17, dated April 26, 1898.
Application filed July 19, 1897. Serial No. 645,039. (No model.)
To all whom, it .ma/y concern:
Be it known that we, EDWIN E. SLICK and THOMAS MORRISON, of Braddock, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful lmprovement in Cinder-Cars, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specioation,
ro in which- Figure 1 shows in side elevation, partly in vertical section, a cinder-car having a cinder vessel constructed in accordance with our invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the lower part of our vessel provided with a movable bottom; and Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the car, showing the tilting mechanism.
Heretofore the most approved means for conveying molten cinder from blast-furnaces zo has consisted of a vessel supported by a car or truck and composed of vertically-divided buck-staves or sections which are fitted together so as to allow for expansion and contraction and which are surrounded by an z5 outer lining. In the use of such devices it has been found that they only last for a short time,that the cinder will find its way through the crevices to the back of the staves, between the staves and thelining, and will soon 3o warp and distort the staves, so as to render the vessel unfit for use. We have devised a vessel for this purpose which is not subject to these objections, but which, on the contrai-y, is very durable and which thus not 3 5 only greatly decreases the oost of maintenance and repair, but aords a safer and better means for removing the cinder.
It consistsin a tilting cinder vessel mounted on a wheeled truck, this vessel being made 4o up of an outer shell and a separable inner cinder-tight vessel removably su pported upon the upper part of the outer shell, with an air-space surrounding the bottom portion of the inner vessel and having free communication with the outer air, so as to allow the air to circulate around and cool the inner vessel.
It also consists in the construction and arrangement of the parts, as hereinafter more fully described, and set forth in the claims.
ln the drawings, 2 represents the frame of the car, and 3 the external shell of the vessel, which is supported in the tilting frame by any suitable means-such as an angle-ironilange 4. lVithin this shell is theinner cinder-tight vessel 5, which is preferably of cast metal and is shown in this figure as being made in one piece, this vessel being supported by a flange 6, which rests upon the upper end of the outer shell.
7 are bolts passing through necks 8 on the bottom of the vessel and serving to fasten the two parts together. The tilting frame is provided with end trunnions having toothed wheels 13 and 14, respectively, which engage toothed racks 15 upon the frame of the car. To move the vessel along the racks and tilt it, we provide a hand-wheel 1l, mounted upon a shaft 17, which is connected by screwgear 13 with a counter-shaft 12, which shaft carries a pinion 16, intermeshing with the wheel 13. It is evident that when the handwheel is rotated the vessel will be tilted and moved along the racks upon the frame.
In the modification shown in Fig. 2 the bottom of the vessel is cast in a separate piece from the upper portion thereof, but is lapped together by a cinder-tight joint 9, so as to constitute in effect an integral piece. The exterior shell 3 is provided with perforations 10 for the circulation of air.
Within the scope of our invention as defined in the claims many modifications in the construction and arrangement of the parts may be made by the skilled mechanic.
The advantages of the invention have been demonstrated by its use in the conveying of cinder and will be appreciated by those skilled in the art.
We have found that the cinder vessel is durable, strong, and does not become readily skulled or fouled by the cinder.
Ve claim- 1. The combination with a Wheeled truck, of la tilting cinder vessel carried thereon and comprising an outer shell and a separable inner cinder-tight vessel removably supported an air-space surrounding the bottom portion of the inner vessel and having free communication with the outer air to permit a circulation and cooling of the inner vessel.
2. The combination with a wheeled truck, of a tilting cinder vessel carried thereon and comprising an outer shell, and a separate inupon the upper part of the outer shell, with ICO f ner cinder-tight vessel having a lateral ange at its top which rests upon the upper end of the outer shell, with an intervening air-space` surrounding the inner vessel and having free communication with the outer air.
8. The combination With a Wheeled truck, of a tilting cinder vessel mounted thereon, said vessel comprising an outer shell having a closed bottom, and an inner cast vessel having a lateral ange resting upon the upper end of the outer shell, with an air-space surrounding the lower portion of the inner vessel, the outer shell having inlet and outf let openings to give an air circulation between the shells and produce arapid cooling of the cinders.
4. The combination with a Wheeled. truck,
In testimony whereof We havehereunto set our hands.
