Abstract
Dosed proportioning and cutoff of combustion air into the primary heating space of a horizontal coke oven is provided by apertures in the ceiling of the coke oven chamber, the apertures covered with a withdrawable cover device which controls the amount of air admitted, manually or in an automatic mode. By way of this device, ventilation of a coke oven chamber with primary air can be so controlled that primary air is introduced in an exactly dosed manner and, depending on its place of installation, exactly distributed into the primary heating space of a coke oven chamber.

A coke oven in a coke oven bank or coke oven battery comprising at least one aperture and a cover for the aperture for controlling admittance, dosed proportioning and cutoff of a primary combustion air supply fed into a primary heating space of a horizontal coke oven chamber, said aperture(s) communicating with the primary heating space of the horizontal coke oven chamber from an outer side, wherein:
- at least one aperture for supply of primary combustion air is arranged in a top ceiling of at least one coke oven chamber of the coke oven bank or coke oven battery;
- the at least one aperture is associated with a cover which covers the aperture on the outer side;
- the cover connected to a rod which is moveable in a vertical direction by means of a mechanical device such that the cover increases or reduces the air supply by a vertical movement of the cover.
