Abstract

Abstract A die segment for a briquetting roll in which the roll is a steel body which is provided with a peripheral groove having a radially outwardly facing bottom wall which is made up of planar chordal segments and having side walls at the side edges of the bottom wall with one side wall inclined inwardly in the outward direction and being in the form of an annular segment of a cone concentric with the axis of the roll and the other side wall substantially radial. The die segments are bodies of hard wear resistant material mounted in the groove, one on each chordal section of the bottom wall of the groove and each has one side inclined to fit the inclined wall of the groove with the other side spaced from and diverging from the radial side wall in the outward direction. Wedge bars between the radial side wall of the groove and the opposed sides of the die segments are utilized for clamping the segments in place in the roll.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 86 words
A die segment for a briquetting roll comprising; a body of hard wear resistant material having end edges and side edges and oppositely facing first and second major surfaces, one major surface having pocket means formed therein, the other major surface being disposed in a first flat plane, one side edge being disposed in a second flat plane at an angle to said first plane, and the other said side edge being in the form of an angular segment of an annular section of a cone.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 86 words
A die segment for a briquetting roll comprising; a body of hard wear resistant material having end edges and side edges and oppositely facing first and second major surfaces, one major surface having pocket means formed therein, the other major surface being disposed in a first flat plane, one side edge being disposed in a second flat plane at an angle to said first plane, and the other said side edge being in the form of an angular segment of an annular section of a cone.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 34 words
A die segment according to claim 1 in which said side edges when the segment is viewed in cross section converge toward the side of the die segment which said one major surface faces.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 27 words
A die segment according to claim 1 in which the plane of said one side edge makes an angle of less than 90° with said first plane.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
A die segment according to claim 1 in which said one major surface is convex away from said body.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 28 words
A die segment according to claim 1 in which said end edges are disposed in respective planes which converge in the direction which said other major surface faces.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 77 words
A die segment according to claim 1 in which said one major face is concentric with an axis parallel to the other major face and spaced from said body on the side toward said other major face, said end edges being disposed in respective planes which are so inclined as to intersect on said axis, said annular section of a cone being a section of a cone with the axis coinciding with the first mentioned said axis.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 20 words
A die segment according to claim 6 in which the angle between the sides of said cone is about 165°.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 20 words
A die segment according to claim 1 in which said hard wear resistant material is a cemented hard metal carbide.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 15 words
A die segment according to claim 8 in which said metal carbide comprises tungsten carbide.
