Method of smokeless charging of coke ovens with coal charge and coal-charging machine for effecting same
First Claim
1. A method of smokeless charging of coke ovens with coal charge, said coke ovens having a plurality of chambers, each of said chambers having at least three charging holes, two of said charging holes being arranged near the extreme ends of each of said chambers and one of said charging holes being arranged in the center of each of said chambers, comprising pouring coal into a first chamber of the coke ovens through its extreme end and central holes from the outlets of a coal-charging machine in two stages, the first of said two stages including positioning a coal-charging machine having at least three outlets, two of said outlets being arranged near the extreme ends of said coal-charging machine and one of said outlets being arranged in the center of said coal-charging machine and displaced from the extreme outlets in the direction of movement of said coal-charging machine, over a first chamber such that the extreme outlets of said coal-charging machine are positioned over the extreme end holes of said first chamber, pouring a coal charge into said first chamber through said extreme end holes, withdrawing charging gases simultaneously through a gas discharge means, advancing said coal-charging machine into a position wherein the extreme outlets of said coal-charging machine are over the extreme end holes of a nearby second chamber which is next in terms of a charging schedule and the central outlet is over the central hole of said first chamber, and simultaneously holding the coal charge in said first chamber over a time period sufficient for said coal-charging machine to advance to said second chamber, the second of said two stages including pouring a coal charge into said first chamber through said central hole, withdrawing charging gases simultaneously through said gas discharge means, and pouring a coal charge through the extreme end holes of said second chamber in terms of said charging schedule simultaneously with the filling of said first chamber through said central hole.

Abstract
A method of smokeless charging of coke ovens with coal charge in which coal is poured into each chamber of the coke oven in two stages: firstly coal charge is loaded into the oven chamber through extreme holes and charging gases liberated during said operation are discharged simultaneously, the loaded coal charge is held within the oven, after which the latter is replenished to capacity with coal charge through central holes, charging of the oven which is next in terms of the charging schedule and replenishing of the preceding one being effected simultaneously.
A coal-charging machine for realizing the method of smokeless charging of coke ovens with coal charge in which machine hoppers, comprising receiving and discharging devices, are made so that the centers of the outlets of the discharging devices of the extreme hoppers are displaced in the direction of travel of the coal-charging machine with respect to those of the discharging devices of the central hoppers for a value which is a multiple of the distance between the longitudinal axes of the neighboring coke ovens.
