Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
144 words
An industrial sulfur trioxide gas injection probe comprising: an elongated outer metallic sheathing portion; an elongated sulfur trioxide gas conveying pipe having at least a major portion thereof received within said sheathing portion; the outer diameter of said conveying pipe being less than the inner diameter of said sheathing portion; a refractory disposed intermediate the adjacent peripheral surfaces of said pipe and said sheathing portion; said refractory being disposed between said adjacent surfaces as a poured refractory and thereafter being allowed to set up to uniformly fill the space between said adjacent surfaces; the outer diameter of said refractor and the outer diameter of said sheathing portion being constant through the respective major longitudinal extents thereof; and a plurality of longitudinally spaced generally transversely extending sulfur trioxide gas injection nozzles communicating between the interior of said pipe and the exterior of said sheathing portion.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
144 words
An industrial sulfur trioxide gas injection probe comprising: an elongated outer metallic sheathing portion; an elongated sulfur trioxide gas conveying pipe having at least a major portion thereof received within said sheathing portion; the outer diameter of said conveying pipe being less than the inner diameter of said sheathing portion; a refractory disposed intermediate the adjacent peripheral surfaces of said pipe and said sheathing portion; said refractory being disposed between said adjacent surfaces as a poured refractory and thereafter being allowed to set up to uniformly fill the space between said adjacent surfaces; the outer diameter of said refractor and the outer diameter of said sheathing portion being constant through the respective major longitudinal extents thereof; and a plurality of longitudinally spaced generally transversely extending sulfur trioxide gas injection nozzles communicating between the interior of said pipe and the exterior of said sheathing portion.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
An injection probe as specified in claim 1 wherein said sheathing portion and the portion of said pipe received therein are coaxial.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
An injection probe as specified in claim 2 additionally including at least another sheathing portion in coaxial alignment with said first mentioned sheathing portion and longitudinally spaced therefrom.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
42 words
An injection probe as specified in claim 3 with a longitudinal expansion means disposed intermediate said first and said another sheathing portions to allow relative longitudinal movement of at least one of said portions with respect to the other of said portions.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
32 words
An injection probe as specified in claim 4 with said conveying pipe having at least one portion thereof coaxially received within said first mentioned and another sheathing portions and said expansion means.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
125 words
A method of manufacturing an industrial sulfur trioxide gas injection probe having an elongated outer metallic sheathing and an elongated gas conveying pipe with at least a major longitudinal portion of said pipe received within said sheathing and with a plurality of longitudinally spaced transversely extending injection nozzles communicating between the interior of said pipe and the exterior of said sheathing comprising the steps of: fabricating a sub-assembly of said sheathing, said pipe and said nozzles, with one end of said sub-assembly being open; maintaining an annular space between adjacent peripherial surfaces of said pipe and said sheathing; orientating said sub-assembly in a substantially vertical position; pouring a castable refractory within said one end of said sub-assembly; and sealing said one end of said sub-assembly.
Claim 8
Independent Claim
125 words
A method of manufacturing an industrial sulfur trioxide gas injection probe having an elongated outer metallic sheathing and an elongated gas conveying pipe with at least a major longitudinal portion of said pipe received within said sheathing and with a plurality of longitudinally spaced transversely extending injection nozzles communicating between the interior of said pipe and the exterior of said sheathing comprising the steps of: fabricating a sub-assembly of said sheathing, said pipe and said nozzles, with one end of said sub-assembly being open; maintaining an annular space between adjacent peripherial surfaces of said pipe and said sheathing; orientating said sub-assembly in a substantially vertical position; pouring a castable refractory within said one end of said sub-assembly; and sealing said one end of said sub-assembly.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method as specified in claim 6 wherein during said fabricating, said sheathing and said pipe are coaxially maintained.
