Abstract
Abstract A furnace lining formed from a plurality of blocks each comprising an assembly of stacked parallel plates and at least one profiled or toothed end member. The profiles are shaped to be capable of receiving in spaced relationship in the stack of plates. The profiled teeth of the end members are arranged perpendicularly to the stacking planes of the plates and extend individually laterally over at least a portion of the peripheral edge or corner of each plate so that an effective bond is obtained for the plates, as well as their assemblies.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
A lining for the walls of a high temperature furnace and the like, comprising a plurality of adjacently disposed and superimposed layers of blocks of a refractory material, each of said blocks being formed by an assembly of a plurality of relatively thin plate elements arranged in spaced face-to-face parallel relationship to each other and to the adjacent walls of the furnace and stacked in relative alignment with the like plates in the adjacently disposed blocks, said blocks being separated by end members extending perpendicularly to the plane of the plates within said blocks, the faces of each of said end members having slots, each of the slots receiving at least a portion of the edges of a corresponding contiguous one of said plate elements therein to maintain each said plate element spaced from the adjacent plate elements in said block and provide a firm interconnecting bond therebetween.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
148 words
A lining for the walls of a high temperature furnace and the like, comprising a plurality of adjacently disposed and superimposed layers of blocks of a refractory material, each of said blocks being formed by an assembly of a plurality of relatively thin plate elements arranged in spaced face-to-face parallel relationship to each other and to the adjacent walls of the furnace and stacked in relative alignment with the like plates in the adjacently disposed blocks, said blocks being separated by end members extending perpendicularly to the plane of the plates within said blocks, the faces of each of said end members having slots, each of the slots receiving at least a portion of the edges of a corresponding contiguous one of said plate elements therein to maintain each said plate element spaced from the adjacent plate elements in said block and provide a firm interconnecting bond therebetween.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
25 words
The lining according to claim 1 wherein said plates are formed of a non-porous fireproof ceramic material having a thickness of at most 50 millimeters.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
38 words
The lining according to claim 1 wherein said slots are formed by a series of teeth facing said plate elements, said teeth being adapted to engage the corresponding edge of said plate elements along the entire length thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
78 words
The lining according to claim 3 wherein at least some of said end members extend vertically to the wall of said furnace, and some of said end members extend horizontally, the height of said vertical end members corresponding to that of the plate elements in the associated block and having teeth along their horizontally extending edges forming grooves therein adapted to engage the teeth on the face of the contiguous horizontal end members so as to interlock therewith.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
37 words
The lining according to claim 3 wherein said plate members are in the form of strips and said plate elements are provided with recesses formed in the edges thereof contiguous with said strips for receiving the same.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
34 words
The lining according to claim 1 wherein said end members are formed with a saw-tooth configuration on the faces engaging with said plate elements, and said plate elements are formed with correspondingly bevelled edges.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
42 words
The lining according to claim 6 wherein the toothed configuration of the end members is provided with rounded edges and the engaging edges of the plate elements are provided in the region of their engagement with the teeth with correspondingly rounded configurations.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
24 words
The lining according to claim 1, wherein at least some of said end members are conical in cross section to form arched wall sections.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
18 words
The lining according to claim 1 wherein said end members are substantially thin rectangular slabs of refractory material.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
20 words
The lining according to claim 1 including end members arranged along each of the peripheral edges of said plate elements.
