Abstract
Abstract A high temperature steaming device for steaming webs of textile material with tubular steam distributors which are arranged in the lower section of a steaming chamber and which supply superheated steam to the interior of the steaming chamber. These steam distributors, which have discharge bores arranged in the longitudinal direction thereof and adjacent to each other, are formed by pipes adapted to receive steam which is superheated by being passed along heating coils directly within the steaming chamber.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
143 words
A high temperature steaming device for steaming webs of textile goods, which includes: a steaming chamber having an upper section and a lower section, means arranged in said steaming chamber for receiving a web of textile goods to be steamed while defining a path for the web of textile goods to be steamed in said chamber and passing said web of textile goods through said chamber, and steam distributing pipe means including a steam inlet at one end receiving steam and including longitudinally therein heating coils for superheating said steam passed directly therealong and including an outlet for the superheated steam to release said steam internally thereof into said chamber, said pipe means being located within said lower section of said steaming chamber and extending to release said superheated steam in a direction substantially transverse to the respective adjacent section of said path.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
143 words
A high temperature steaming device for steaming webs of textile goods, which includes: a steaming chamber having an upper section and a lower section, means arranged in said steaming chamber for receiving a web of textile goods to be steamed while defining a path for the web of textile goods to be steamed in said chamber and passing said web of textile goods through said chamber, and steam distributing pipe means including a steam inlet at one end receiving steam and including longitudinally therein heating coils for superheating said steam passed directly therealong and including an outlet for the superheated steam to release said steam internally thereof into said chamber, said pipe means being located within said lower section of said steaming chamber and extending to release said superheated steam in a direction substantially transverse to the respective adjacent section of said path.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
240 words
A high temperature steaming device for steaming webs of textile goods, which includes: a steaming chamber having an upper section and a lower section, means arranged in said steaming chamber for receiving a web of textile goods to be steamed while defining a path for the web to be steamed in said chamber and passing said web through said chamber, steam distributing pipe means receiving steam and including therein heating coils for superheating said steam passed directly therealong subsequently to release said superheated steam into said chamber, said pipe means being located within said lower section of said steaming chamber and extending in a direction substantially transverse to the respective adjacent section of said path, said steam distributing pipe means including a plurality of pipe systems each of which comprises: an outer pipe and an inner pipe substantially coaxially arranged within said outer pipe, said outer pipe being provided with steam inlet means and having one permanently closed end and having its opposite end having, cover means for opening and closing said opposite end, said heating coils extending through said cover means into said outer pipe for superheating the steam entering said outer pipe, said inner and outer pipes forming with each other an annular unilaterally closed chamber communicating with that portion of said outer pipe into which said heating coils extend, said outer pipe having that section thereof which partially defines said annular chamber provided with outlet bores therethrough.
