Abstract
An installation for continuous two-sided enameling of pipes comprises a vertical receiving-and-discharging rotor a working rotor which moves pipes past working stations, and a mechanism for moving the pipes from one rotor to the other.
Claims5
An apparatus for continuous enameling of pipes comprising:
- at least three working stations comprising in succession at least one working station including means for applying an enamel slip coating to at least one side of a pipe, at least one working station including means for drying the enamel slip coating and at least one working station including means for baking the enamel slip coating;
- two rotors mounted vertically side by side and provided with grips for holding pipes in a vertical position, one of the rotors serving to receive and discharge the pipes and the other of the rotors serving as a working rotor for moving the pipes along the at least three working stations disposed along the path of movement of the working rotor;
- means for transferring the pipes from the receiving and discharging rotor to the working rotor and from the working rotor to the receiving and discharging rotor;
- a conveyor means adjoining the receiving and discharging rotor for moving the pipes in a horizontal position and transferring the pipes thereto and therefrom, the conveyor means including a turnover device for shifting the pipes from the horizontal position to the vertical position as the pipes are transferred to the receiving and discharging rotor, and from the vertical position to the horizontal position as the pipes are transferred from the receiving and discharging rotor to the conveyor means.

- a conveyor means adjoining the receiving and discharging rotor for moving the pipes in a horizontal position;
- a turnover device associated with the conveyor means for shifting the pipes from the horizontal position to the vertical position as the pipes are transferred to the receiving and discharging rotor, and from the vertical position to the horizontal position as the pipes are discharged from the receiving and discharging rotor;
- a first carriage located above the rotors and supporting a grip for holding the pipes and a second carriage located at the base of the rotors and carrying a support against which the lower end of the pipes can bear, the first and second carriages comprising means for transferring the pipes from the receiving and discharging rotor to the working rotor and from the working rotor to the receiving and discharging rotor.
