Abstract
A carbonizing chamber is charged with powdered coal, and then the powdered coal is loaded down with a predetermined load from above with vibration to control the packing density of the powdered coal by means either of a pressing and vibrating member provided on a leveling beam body or a beam body arranged to act also as a pressing and vibrating member.
Claims7
An apparatus for filling the carbonizing chamber of a coke oven with powdered coal and for applying vibration thereto, said apparatus comprising:
- a beam body arranged and constructed to be movable into and out of a carbonizing chamber of a coke oven, throughout the entire length of the carbonizing chamber, in contact with the surface of powdered coal after the carbonizing chamber is charged with the powdered coal and after the surface of the powdered coal is leveled;
- a vibrating member pivotally connected at least to the fore end of said beam body to be bendable relative to said beam body, said vibrating member including a pressing and vibrating face for contacting the surface of the powdered coal and a pull-up arm;
- pull-up driving means, attached to the rear end of said beam body and operatively connected to said pull-up arm, for enabling said vibrating member to bend relative to said beam body;
- and
- vibrating means attached to said vibrator member to vibrate the same and thereby apply vibrations to the surface of the powdered coal.
An apparatus for filling the carbonizing chamber of a coke oven with powdered coal and for applying vibration thereto, said apparatus comprising:
- a beam body arranged and constructed to be movable into and out of a carbonizing chamber of a coke oven, throughout the entire length of the carbonizing chamber, in contact with the surface of powdered coal after the carbonizing chamber is charged with the powdered coal and after the surface of the powdered coal is leveled, said beam body including plural pressing and vibrating bottom plates arranged in the longitudinal direction of said beam body and spaced therealong at least on the lower side of said beam body, a rear portion of said beam body being bendable;
- means for, after said beam body is moved into the carbonizing chamber, lowering said beam body such that said bottom plates are moved into pressing contact with the surface of the powdered coal in the carbonizing chamber, while maintaining said beam body in a horizontal posture, said lowering means comprising a forwarding and retracting truck having an inclined portion, said bendable rear portion of said beam body being positioned on said inclined portion of said truck, and means for moving said bendable rear portion of said beam body along said inclined portion of said truck, thereby lowering said beam body;
- and
- vibrating means attached to a rear end part of said beam body for vibrating said bottom plates and thereby applying vibrations to the surface of the powdered coal.
