Abstract
Abstract An internally heatable nozzle provided with a divisible housing having a cylindrical bore narrowed at one end towards the mouth opening of the nozzle in which bore a cylindrical core is connected at one end in said housing, said core being divisible in transverse direction, its two parts being provided with directly adjacent flanges, which flanges have throughgoing axially channels lying in the extension of the annular channel of the housing and which flanges fit in between inner shoulders on the two parts of the housing, between which parts tensile elements are operative tightening the core parts together, the core being conical at one end and being provided with an internal heating element with connecting leads passed laterally through said housing, an annular channel being arranged between said core and said housing on the side remote from the mouth opening.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
166 words
An internally heatable nozzle comprising a divisible housing having a cylindrical bore narrowed at one end towards a mouth opening of the nozzle, in which bore a cylindrical, divisible core of thermally conductive material is connected at one end in said housing, said core having a conical end proximate to and tapering toward said mouth opening and being provided with an internal heating element with connecting leads passed laterally through said housing, an annular channel being arranged between said core and said housing and connected with at least one feeding channel passing through the housing on the side remote from the mouth opening, said core being divisible in a transverse direction to present two parts provided with directly adjacent flanges, said flanges having axially extending channels communicating said feeding channel with the channel between the housing and the core and said flanges fitting between inner shoulders on the two parts of the housing, between which parts tensile elements are operative to tighten the core parts together.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
166 words
An internally heatable nozzle comprising a divisible housing having a cylindrical bore narrowed at one end towards a mouth opening of the nozzle, in which bore a cylindrical, divisible core of thermally conductive material is connected at one end in said housing, said core having a conical end proximate to and tapering toward said mouth opening and being provided with an internal heating element with connecting leads passed laterally through said housing, an annular channel being arranged between said core and said housing and connected with at least one feeding channel passing through the housing on the side remote from the mouth opening, said core being divisible in a transverse direction to present two parts provided with directly adjacent flanges, said flanges having axially extending channels communicating said feeding channel with the channel between the housing and the core and said flanges fitting between inner shoulders on the two parts of the housing, between which parts tensile elements are operative to tighten the core parts together.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
A nozzle as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the conical tip of the core projects out of the mouth opening.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
A nozzle as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the core is made from a material having a high thermal conductivity, preferably a beryllium-copper alloy.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
22 words
A nozzle as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the core is divisible near the end remote from the mouth opening.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
30 words
A nozzle as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the flange on the part of the core facing the mouth opening fits in a corresponding bore in the housing.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
19 words
A nozzle as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the flanges have circumferential grooves in their outer surface.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
31 words
A nozzle as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the electrical leads of the heating element are passed through a transverse bore radially extending through the flanges of the core.
