REVERBERATORY FURNACE FOR METAL REMELTING Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC F27B3/00 C22B7/00 

FIELD: heating.

SUBSTANCE: furnace includes a housing formed with side, front and rear external end refractory walls, a storage bath that is restricted with a bottom and walls, an inclined platform, an arch, a drain tap-hole and a gas duct. The housing is arranged on a welded concrete-cast frame with filler from diatomite chips and provided with two heat-insulating layers from light brick and asbestos board plates under the bottom, two heat-insulating layers from light brick and four layers of asbestos board plates under the inclined platform. The storage bath and the inclined platform are made of mullite-corundum blocks MKP-72 laid on three layers of asbestos board and have packing from diatomite chips, which are mixed with crushed asbestos chips. The furnace has lower and upper large arches located one above another so that a gap for a flue gas duct is formed between them. The furnace is equipped with a rotating chute having the possibility of being turned during liquid metal pouring and having an intermediate nose, a rotating bowl with a shaft welded in its lower part, the end of which is pressed into an inner shell of a ball bearing, and its outer shell is fixed in a bracket fixed in the rear wall of the furnace; at that, a long pouring nose with two handles is welded to the turning bowl for series pouring of metal molten in the furnace to the pouring equipment located in the service sector at an angle of 140°. Front wall of the furnace is provided with a row of injection burners of intermediate pressure, out of which two eight-mixer burners with long flame are directed on edges to the charge contained on the inclined platform and to the bath with molten metal, one burner BIGm 2-6 and two burners BIGm 2-12 are directed to the charge.

EFFECT: high furnace capacity, reduction of heat losses and melting loss and possible environmentally safe remelting of aluminium scraps.
