Abstract
A method of assembling a rotary kiln that has steel plates lining the kiln which overlie an insulation layer, and which are mounted on hangers projecting through the plates.
Claims6
Method of forming kiln liner on a cylindrical steel kiln wall having steel hangers extending generally radially inwardly therefrom,
- applying insulating material to a predetermined thickness less than the inward extension of said hangers,
- applying an apertured metal plate over each of a plurality of said hangers with said apertures receiving said hangers, so that said metal plates overlie said insulating material,
- affixing a means to said hanger inwardly of said metal plate to retain the metal plate in position without substantially altering the metallurgical qualities of said plate,
- wherein affixing is performed by welding retaining means to the portion of a hanger inwardly of said plate to retain said plate against outward movement relative to said hanger,
- portions of said plate being free to move under thermal effects relative to said kiln except where attached to said hanger.

- affixing a means to said hangers inwardly of said metal plate to retain the metal plate in position without substantially altering the metallurgical qualities of said plate,
- the inner side of said plates having chamferred aperture edges thereby providing a niche between said hanger and said metal plate,
- affixing said means to said hanger in said niche,
- and including the step of providing steel wedge members having two surfaces complementary to said niche and welding said members to said hanger without welding said members to said plate.
