Claim 1
Independent Claim
122 words
IN THE PROCESS OF CONVERTING AN INGOT OF HEAT-SENSITIVE ALLOY COMPOSITION INVOLVING ROLLING THE INGOT WHILE AT A TEMPERATURE ABOVE THE CRITICAL TEMPERATURE OF THE ALLOY, THE IMPROVEMENT WHICH CONSISTS IN ENVELOPING THE INGOT IN A METAL SHELL HAVING SUCH WALL THICKNESS AS MATERIALLY TO RETARD THE SETTING UP OF A SHARP TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL BETWEEN SURFACE AND INTERIOR OF THE INGOT, HOT-EXTENDING OR DRAWING THE SO-ENVELOPED INGOT THROUGH AN EXTRUSION OF DRAWING DIE HAVING SUCH A SIZE OF OPENING AS TO COMPRESS SAID SHELL ONTO SAID INGOT AND MATERIALLY TO REDUCE THE CROSS-SECTIONAL AREA OF THE ENVELOPED INGOT; THEREAFTER HOT-ROLLING THE EXTRUDED OR DRAWN ARTICLE TO APPROXIMATELY FINAL CROSS-SECTIONAL SIZE WITHOUT IN-PROCESS CONDITIONING; AND REMOVING THE SHELL FROM THE RESULTING REDUCED BILLET.
