To decrease a loss of coke due to burning and to prolong the service life of an apparatus for receiving incandescent coke and conveying the same to a quenching tower, between a wall structure (1) and lining plates (2) there is disposed a spacing member in the form of corrugated sheets (12), and the lining plates (2) are mounted with the provision for linear expansion under the action of heat from incandescent coke and connected to the wall structure (1) by means of cover pieces (13) overlapping temperature gaps, bolts (14) and nuts (15). Bottom gates (7) of a hopper (5) are provided with sealing members (18) having a surface (A) and (B) contacting the round surface of a girdle (6) tangentially. Specific embodiments of spacing members, sealing members and locking means are described.
An apparatus for receiving incandescent coke and conveying the same from a coking chamber to a quenching site, comprising a wall structure which is lined with plates of a suitable material, installed so as to provide for a linear expansion thereof, and which defines at its bottom portion a hopper having a discharge hole, a girdle extending substantially circumferentially around the discharge hole, and bottom gates movable between an opened and closed position with respect to said discharge hole, characterized in that the wall structure and the lining plates are installed in a mutually spaced relationship to define a gap therebetween, the lining plates are joined with one another and with the wall structure by locking means and spacing members, the girdle being round in cross-section, and wherein the bottom gates are provided with sealing members which are fixed thereto for movement therewith, said sealing members having at least one sealing surface disposed so that, with the bottom gates in the closed position covering said discharge hole, said at least one sealing surface contacts said girdle extending tangentially with respect thereto.
