(54) FURNACE ARRANGEMENT FOR THE HEATING OF SLABS (71) We, MANNESMANN AKTIEN GESELLSCHAFT, a joint stock company organised under the laws of Germany, of Mannesmannufer 2, 4 Dusseldorf 1, Germany, do hereby declare the invention for which we pray that a patent may be granted to us, and the method by which it is to be performed, to be particularly described in and by the following statement: The present invention relates to a furnace assembly for the heating of slabs, comprising at least two furnaces, one furnace being of the pusher type, the slabs travelling in succession through the furnaces and being fed to a rolling mill.
Of the furnaces which can be used for heating slabs, the pusher type of furnace is the most advantageous with regard to the investment outlay and the operating costs.
However, one disadvantage of this type of furnace is that as the stack length of each slab increases there is a danger that the slabs may slide over one another and thus the overall length and the furnace throughput is limited by the thickness of the slabs. A further disadvantage is the high temperature of the furnace exhaust gas.
Further, if the furnace temperature is increased in order to increase the throughput, it is bad from a metallurgical standpoint and it also has a disadvantageous effect on the life of the furnace and on operating costs.
To avoid these disadvantages, a heating furnace has already been proposed in which a combination of a pusher type of furnace as the heating-up zone and a walking beam furnace as the equalisation zone is used, each furnace unit having its own heating arrangement (German laid-open specification 15 07 562).
Whilst such a combination is advantageous with regard throughput, it is unsatisfactory economically. In the arrangement of the above mentioned German specification a relatively expensive walking beam furnace is subjected to maximum thermal stress and maximum thermal wear. In addition the temperature of exhaust gas from the heating furnace is not lowered.
We have sought to increase the throughput of a slab pusher furnace and to improve the economic aspects of slab heating.
Accordingly the present invention provides a furnace assembly for heating slabs to be rolled in a rolling mill, which assembly comprises a pusher furnace and a preliminary furnace connected to one another by a slab transfer means, with the axis of throughflow of the preliminary furnace being situated outside that of the pusher furnace, the pusher furnace and the preliminary furnace being so arranged that in use slabs are supplied from the pusher furnace to a rolling mill and exhaust gases from the pusher furnace are supplied to the preliminary furnace.
By the arrangement of the present invention, it is possible to use a more heat-resistant and more economical pusher furnace for the heating of slabs to the required rolling temperature.
The preliminary furnace is preferably a pusher furnace or a roller hearth furnace.
Sufficient space is available for the arrange ment of the pushing device.
The temperature of the exhaust gas is also considerably reduced on leaving the preliminary furnace and the thermal efficiency of the heating process is better.
It is possible to use a pusher furnace as the preliminary furnace, so that the initial costs are reduced. If in addition the pusher furnace and the preliminary furnace chamber are arranged relative to one another with a parallel throughflow axis offset by one furnace width, the two pusher furnaces can consist of identical units, which is advantageous with regard to the reserve stocks it is necessary to keep.
The pusher furnace and the preliminary furnace may be arranged relative to one another with their throughflow axes intersecting at an angle particularly at a right angle. However, the slab may be pushed through the preliminary furnace in the direction of the length of the slab and then pushed through the pusher furnace in the direction of the slab width. However it is less advisable to arrange the throughflow axes of the two furn aces at such an angle to one another that the transfer apparatus has to partly turn the slab.
An improvement~ in thermal efficiency can be achieved if the heat of the exhaust gases is recovered and used to heat the burner air for the pusher furnace. This is achieved by passing the exhaust gases through a heat exchanger through which the burner air for the pusher furnace is also passed and is thus heated. The exhaust gases may optionally be passed through downstream exhausters after heat exchange but before entering the preliminary furnace. This again has the advantage that the furnace draught is influenced to a lesser degree by unwanted air drawn in through leakage points.
A plurality of preliminary furnaces may be provided to cooperate with a single pusher furnace. These preliminary furnaces may be arranged on two sides of the axis of throughflow of the pusher furnace; preferably they are arranged symmetrically on two sides of the axis of throughflow of the pusher furnace.
The invention is further illustrated in the accompanying Drawings wherein: Figure 1 shows a simple furnace assembly according to the present invention in plan view, Figure 2 shows a perspective view of a furnace assembly in accordance with the present invention.
The furnace assemblies shown in Figures 1 and 2 comprise pusher furnace 1 and preliminary furnace 2. Slabs 3, 4, 5 which are to be rolled are introduced in the cold state into the preliminary furnace 2 and come to abut one another by means of pusher device 23 whose line of action is indicated by arrows 6. From the preliminary furnace the slabs slide on to a roller table 24 on which for example the slab 5 is moved in the direction of arrow 8 to the front of the pusher furnace.
After the slab 5 has been aligned with the front of the pusher furnace 1, it is pressed into the pusher furnace by means of pusher apparatus 9 in the direction of arrow 29 and brought to abut the preceding slab. After complete heating-up and heating-through the slabs issue from the furnace 1 and are conveyed by means of a roller table with the direction of conveyance shown by arrow 10 to the rolling mill.
The pusher furnace 1 has a burner heating system 11. The burners 11 are supplied with fuel and hot air for the burning process through conduits 12 and 13. The heating gases flow through the pusher furnace in a direction opposite to the direction of throughflow of the slabs.
In the arrangement shown in Figure 1 the exhaust gases from the pusher furnace 1 are directed through the enclosed roller table 24 to the preliminary furnace 2, and conducted through conduit 25, heat exchanger 26 and chimney 22 and then into the free atmosphere.
The combustion air for the furnace burners 11 is subjected to preliminary heating in the heat exchanger 26.
In the arrangement shown in Figure 2 the exhaust gases from the pusher furnace 1 are removed through exhaust gas ducts 14 and 15 and conducted through heat exchangers 16 and 17. The combustion air for preheating is conducted through the heat exchanger in a separate duct system. The heat exchangers are connected into conduits 12 and 13. The exhaust gases are cooled to such an extent in the heat exchangers 16 and 17 that exhausters 18 and 19 can be arranged in exhaust gas ducts 27 and 28, these exhausters drawing the exhaust gases out of the pusher furnace 1. By way of continuations of the exhaust gas ducts 27 and 28 whose portions are designated as 20 and 21, the exhaust gases are supplied to the preliminary furnace 2 and conducted from the latter in known manner through the chimney 22 into the free atmosphere.
In both assemblies, the dimensioning of the length of the pusher furnace 1 and of the preliminary furnace 2 and the firing of the furnaces will depend on the throughput with regard to optimum heat utilisation. Thus it is unnecessary to make the length of the pusher furnace such that the sliding of the slabs over one another because of the pushing apparatus in the direction indicated by the arrows 29 is only just avoided. However, this condition remains a maximum limitation of the pusher furnace length This condition also applies to the preliminary furnace 2 if the furnace is a pusher furnace.
An assembly having only one pusher furnace does not generally achieve the required throughput which can be dealt with by the rolling mill whereas the assembly of the present invention does achieve the required throughput. Increasing the throughput of the furnace assembly is achieved in the present invention by adding a preliminary furnace. Up to certain increases in throughput the only outlay required is the investment cost of the preliminary furnace chamber. The partial heating of the slabs to several hundred degrees is either covered completely or to a great extent by using the heat of the exhaust gases.
It is possible to increase the throughput further if the preliminary furnace is provided with a comparatively small additional heating arrangement.
WHAT WE CLAIM IS:- 1. A furnace assembly for heating slabs to be rolled in a rolling mill which assembly comprises a pusher furnace and a preliminary furnace connected to one another by a slab transfer means, wish the axis of throughflow of the preliminary furnace being situated outside that of the pusher furnace, the pusher furnace and the preliminary furnace being so arranged that in use slabs are supplied from the pusher furnace to a rolling mill and ex
