COKE-QUENCHING WAGON Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: coke quenching. SUBSTANCE: coke-quenching wagon has body 3 mounted on equal in height supporting posts 5 and 6 secured to frame 1 and inclined floor 4. The latter is sectional and made of separate parts conjugated across transverse axis of wagon. Transverse sections of inclined floor are bolt-jointed to one another and each section is bolt-jointed to longitudinal beams 13 and 14 connected to posts 5 and 6 by bolted joints. Number of supporting posts is determined depending on sections (joints) and optimal cross-section of longitudinal beams with provision of required rigidity and strength of floor. Such construction reduces weight of inclined floor and entire coke-quenching wagon, and decreases consumption of alloyed heat-resistant steels for wagon with provision of reliable rigidity and strength. Wagons overall dimensions are reduced, and they are convenient for transportation by railroad in one car or flat car. EFFECT: higher efficiency. 1 cl, 5 dwg
