Abstract
Abstract A coke-oven door for use in combination with a coke-oven chamber having an upright doorjamb has a door panel whose periphery is complementary to the doorjamb and which is provided with a seal extending around that periphery between the same and the doorjamb. A plug with a heat-insulating outer wall is carried on this panel within the seal and projects through the doorjamb into the chamber. This plug is formed with a vertically extending and upwardly open passage bounded by a metallic inner wall having gaps by which gases produced during coking adjacent the plug enter the passage on their way to a flue, exchanging heat through the metallic wall with the charge in the oven and thereby aiding the coking operation.

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
158 words
In a method of operating a coking chamber of rectangular horizontal outline, with major sides bounded by heated lateral walls and with minor sides closed by respective doors, to transform a charge of coal in said chamber into coke by heat transmitted thereto through said lateral walls, the improvement whereby hot gases evolving from the charge under the transmitted heat are channeled toward a flue through a vertical passage in each door separated from the interior of the chamber only by a thermally conductive metal partition in contact with the charge whereby the gases rising in said passage transfer part of their heat through said partition by excellent heat conduction to the end region of said charge in contact with said partition to ensure full coking of said charge along said end region thereof, the heat of the gases being prevented by a thermally insulating layer on an outer wall of said passage from escaping to the exterior.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
158 words
In a method of operating a coking chamber of rectangular horizontal outline, with major sides bounded by heated lateral walls and with minor sides closed by respective doors, to transform a charge of coal in said chamber into coke by heat transmitted thereto through said lateral walls, the improvement whereby hot gases evolving from the charge under the transmitted heat are channeled toward a flue through a vertical passage in each door separated from the interior of the chamber only by a thermally conductive metal partition in contact with the charge whereby the gases rising in said passage transfer part of their heat through said partition by excellent heat conduction to the end region of said charge in contact with said partition to ensure full coking of said charge along said end region thereof, the heat of the gases being prevented by a thermally insulating layer on an outer wall of said passage from escaping to the exterior.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
169 words
In a method of operating a coking chamber of rectangular horizontal outline, with major sides bounded by heated lateral walls and with minor sides closed by respective doors, to transform a charge of coal in said chamber into coke by heat transmitted thereto through said lateral walls, the improvement whereby hot gases evolving from the charge under the transmitted heat are channeled toward a flue through a vertical passage in at least one door separated from the interior of the chamber only by a thermally conductive metal partition of said door in contact with the charge whereby full coking of said charge along the end region thereof in contact with said partition is ensured by gases rising in said passage and transferring part of their heat through said partition by excellent heat conduction to the end region of said charge in contact with said partition, the heat of the gases being prevented by a thermally insulating layer on an outer wall of said passage from escaping to the exterior.
Claim 4
