Sur la figure 1 est représenté un four rotatif 10 de fusion de fonte muni d'un brûleur selon l'invention. Le four comporte une enceinte 12 à axe de révolution horizontal, noté X-X. L'enceinte 12 est délimitée dans sa partie courante par une paroi cylindrique 14 comportant, à chaque extrémité 16, des parois d'obturation tronconiques. A une extrémité 18, le four comporte axialement des moyens 20 d'introduction des métaux à fondre. Il comporte, à son autre extrémité, une sortie 22 pour la fonte en fusion.In Figure 1 is shown a rotary furnace 10 for melting cast iron provided with a burner according to the invention. The oven has an enclosure 12 with axis of horizontal revolution, noted X-X.

At one end 18, the oven comprises axially means 20 for introducing the metals to be melted. he has, at its other end, an outlet 22 for molten iron.

Suivant l'axe X-X est disposé, à l'opposé de l'extrémité 18 d'arrivée des matériaux à fondre, un brûleur 24 adapté pour produire une flamme 26 suivant l'axe du four. Le brûleur 24 est porté par une porte 28 d'obturation du four articulée autour d'un axe Y-Y vertical. Le four est supporté dans sa partie courante par deux couronnes de galets 30. Il comporte en outre des moyens d'entraínement en rotation non représentés.Along the axis X-X is arranged, opposite the end 18 of arrival materials to be melted, a burner 24 adapted to produce a flame 26 along the axis of the oven. The burner 24 is carried by a shutter door 28 of the oven articulated around a vertical Y-Y axis. The oven is supported in its running part by two crowns of rollers 30. It further comprises rotational drive means not shown.

La paroi intérieure du four est tapissée d'un revêtement réfractaire siliceux 32 comportant environ 95 % en poids de SiO2 et 4 % en poids de Al2O3, le reste étant constitué d'impuretés.The interior wall of the furnace is lined with a siliceous refractory lining 32 comprising approximately 95% by weight of SiO 2 and 4% by weight of Al 2 O 3 , the remainder consisting of impurities.

Le brûleur monté sur la porte est représenté à plus grande échelle sur les figures 2 et 3.The burner mounted on the door is shown on a larger scale in Figures 2 and 3.

La porte comporte une paroi métallique extérieure 34 garnie intérieurement d'un matériau réfractaire 36 analogue au revêtement 32 utilisé pour la paroi intérieure du four.The door has an outer metal wall 34 lined internally of a refractory material 36 similar to the coating 32 used for the interior wall of the oven.

Le brûleur comporte, de manière classique, une enveloppe ou corps 38, généralement de révolution. Cette enveloppe est séparée par une paroi transversale 40 délimitant dans celle-ci une chambre d'arrivée du gaz combustible 42 disposée en arrière et une chambre d'arrivée du gaz comburant 44. Cette dernière débouche à l'extrémité avant du corps, directement à l'intérieur du four par une ouverture 46. Chaque chambre 42, 44 est reliée à une source d'alimentation en gaz correspondante, par un piquage latérale, noté 42A et 44A respectivement. The burner comprises, in a conventional manner, an envelope or body 38, generally of revolution. This envelope is separated by a wall transverse 40 delimiting therein a gas inlet chamber fuel 42 arranged behind and a gas inlet chamber oxidizer 44. The latter opens at the front end of the body, directly inside the oven through an opening 46. Each chamber 42, 44 is connected to a corresponding gas supply source, by a lateral stitching, noted 42A and 44A respectively.

La chambre 42 d'arrivée du gaz combustible communique avec trois cannes 48 d'injection du gaz combustible. Ces cannes traversent la paroi 40 et sont portées par celle-ci. Elles s'étendent dans l'enveloppe 38 suivant l'axe du brûleur et font saillie au-delà de l'ouverture 46.The fuel gas inlet chamber 42 communicates with three fuel injection rods 48. These rods pass through the wall 40 and are carried by it. They extend into the following envelope 38 the axis of the burner and protrude beyond the opening 46.

L'écran thermique 54 est formé d'un organe tubulaire ou manchon. Ainsi, il présente une surface cylindrique externe notée 54A et un passage cylindrique interne 54B. Le diamètre de ce dernier est constant et est très légèrement supérieur au diamètre externe de la partie courante 38A du corps de brûleur. La sortie d'éjection du brûleur où débouchent les extrémités des cannes 48 et de la chambre 44 est reçue dans le passage 54B, le manchon étant partiellement engagé sur la partie courante 38A du corps.The heat shield 54 is formed of a tubular member or sleeve.

The burner ejection outlet where the ends of rods 48 and chamber 44 is received in the passage 54B, the sleeve being partially engaged on the current part 38A of the body.

Ainsi, le manchon traverse le garnissage 36 de la porte par une ouverture cylindrique 36A. Une jupe 57 de protection de l'écran thermique, formée d'une paroi tubulaire, prolonge l'ouverture cylindrique 36A et fait saillie en dehors du four. La jupe 57 est solidaire de la paroi 34.Thus, the sleeve passes through the lining 36 of the door by a cylindrical opening 36A. A skirt 57 for protecting the heat shield, formed of a tubular wall, extends the cylindrical opening 36A and makes protruding outside the oven. The skirt 57 is integral with the wall 34.

Le manchon 54 fait saillie à l'intérieur du four à une extrémité avant suivant une distance de 7 cm. Son extrémité arrière fait saillie en dehors du four au-delà de la plaque 34 de la porte. Cette extrémité arrière est solidaire des moyens de montage 56.The sleeve 54 projects inside the oven at a front end at a distance of 7 cm. Its rear end projects outside the oven beyond plate 34 of the door. This rear end is integral mounting means 56.

Le manchon 54 est formé par un pisé ayant subi, avant assemblage avec les moyens de montage 56, une étape de cuisson préalable à une température supérieure à 1000°C.The sleeve 54 is formed by an adobe having undergone, before assembly with the mounting means 56, a cooking step prior to a temperature above 1000 ° C.

Le matériau réfractaire constituant le manchon 54 est un alumino-silicate comportant avantageusement en masse x % de SiO2 et y % de Al2O3, le rapport x/y étant compris entre un tiers et deux tiers et avantageusement voisin de un demi.The refractory material constituting the sleeve 54 is an alumino-silicate advantageously comprising by mass x% of SiO 2 and y% of Al 2 O 3 , the ratio x / y being between one third and two thirds and advantageously close to one half.

De plus, la somme x + y des pourcentages en masse de SiO2 et de Al2O3 est supérieur à 90 %.In addition, the sum x + y of the mass percentages of SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 is greater than 90%.

Le tableau qui suit décrit, à titre d'exemple, la composition du manchon 54 analysée par une méthode de fluorescence X. Le manchon a été analysé après usage dans un four. La composition a été déterminée en trois points distincts du manchon localisés comme suit :

    Afin d'assurer une bonne tenue du manchon 54 à la flamme, ainsi qu'une bonne résistance au choc thermique, notamment lors des phases d'arrêt et de mise en marche du four, le manchon est réalisé de la manière suivante.In order to ensure good resistance of the sleeve 54 to the flame, as well good resistance to thermal shock, especially during phases stopping and starting the oven, the sleeve is made in the way next.

    Les matériaux sous forme de granulats constituant la structure du manchon sont disposés dans un moule cylindrique définissant la forme du manchon afin de réaliser un pisé. The materials in the form of aggregates constituting the structure of the sleeve are arranged in a cylindrical mold defining the shape of the sleeve to make an adobe.

    Pour assurer un frittage correct, le damage ou serrage du pisé dans le moule est réalisé avec soin, notamment par ajout de couches successives de 2 ou 3 cm d'épaisseur chacune damée avec un fouloir pneumatique.To ensure correct sintering, tamping or clamping the adobe in the mold is made with care, especially by adding layers successive 2 or 3 cm thick each packed with a gland pneumatic.

    La cuisson du pisé est ensuite réalisée selon un profil standard de montée en température propre aux pisés jusqu'à une température de 1350°C.The cooking of the adobe is then carried out according to a standard profile of rise in adobe temperature up to a temperature of 1350 ° C.

    Après cuisson et démoulage, le pisé présente les caractéristiques suivantes : Constituant de base Chamotte Dilatation moyenne entre 0 et 1000°C 3.106 Caractéristiques physiques Densité après chauffage à 1000°C 2.3 T/m3 Coefficient de conductibilité en Kcal m2h°C à 600°C 0.7          800°C 0.7          1200°C 1 Résistance à la compression à froid après chauffe à 1100°C 350 Kg/cm2 Cône pyroscopique2 36 Température limite d'emploi 1500°C Affaissement sous charge de 2 bars 0.5 % à 1200°C et 5 % à 1340°C.

    Les moyens de montage 56 sont adaptés pour assurer un déplacement de l'écran thermique 54 par rapport à la paroi du four entre au moins deux positions espacées suivant l'axe du brûleur. Ils comportent à cet effet un tube de guidage 58 de diamètre intérieur légèrement supérieur au diamètre externe de la partie courante 38A de l'enveloppe. Le tube 58 comporte, à son extrémité avant, une plaque annulaire transversale 60 munie de perçages de fixation de l'écran 54. A cet effet, celui-ci comporte des encrages 62 dont les extrémités filetées sont reçues au travers des perçages et maintenues en place par des écrous 64. The mounting means 56 are adapted to ensure a displacement of the heat shield 54 relative to the wall of the furnace between the minus two positions spaced along the axis of the burner. They include effect a guide tube 58 with an internal diameter slightly greater than external diameter of the current portion 38A of the envelope. The tube 58 comprises, at its front end, a transverse annular plate 60 provided with screen fixing holes 54. For this purpose, it comprises inks 62 whose threaded ends are received through holes and held in place by nuts 64.

    A son extrémité arrière, le tube 58 comporte une bride annulaire 66 percée d'un ensemble de trous taraudés. Contre cette bride est appliquée une bride complémentaire 68 retenue sur la première bride 66 par des vis 70 formant des moyens de serrage des deux brides l'une contre l'autre suivant l'axe du brûleur.At its rear end, the tube 58 has an annular flange 66 drilled with a set of tapped holes. Against this flange is applied an additional flange 68 retained on the first flange 66 by screws 70 forming means for clamping the two flanges against each other along the axis of the burner.

    La bride 68 comporte au niveau de son diamètre intérieur, sur sa face en contact avec la première bride 66, un lamage 72 dans lequel est reçu un joint torique de serrage 74 dont le diamètre correspond sensiblement au diamètre extérieur de la partie courante 38A de l'enveloppe. Ainsi, le joint torique 74 est en contact avec la surface latérale de l'enveloppe.The flange 68 has at its internal diameter, on its face in contact with the first flange 66, a countersink 72 in which is received a tightening O-ring 74 whose diameter corresponds substantially to the outside diameter of the main part 38A of the envelope. Thus, the O-ring 74 is in contact with the lateral surface of the envelope.

    On comprend que, lorsque les moyens de serrage 70 sont desserrés, le joint torique 74 n'étant pas comprimé, le tube 58 est libre de coulisser axialement le long de la partie courante 38A de l'enveloppe depuis une position reculée représentée sur la figure 2 jusqu'à une position avancée représentée sur la figure 3. Il entraíne avec lui l'écran thermique 54.It is understood that, when the clamping means 70 are loose, the O-ring 74 not being compressed, the tube 58 is free to slide axially along the current portion 38A of the envelope from a retracted position shown in Figure 2 to an advanced position shown in Figure 3. It carries with it the heat shield 54.

    Au contraire, lorsque les moyens de serrage 70 maintiennent la bride 68 contre la bride 66, le joint 74 est comprimé et exerce une force de frottement sur la partie courante 38A de l'enveloppe, assurant un maintien en position de l'écran thermique 54. Ainsi, en fonction de la longueur du manchon 54, la position de l'écran thermique peut être ajustée, de sorte que le manchon 54 fasse saillie par rapport au garnissage 36 sur une longueur prédéterminée. Avantageusement, cette longueur est de l'ordre de 7 cm.On the contrary, when the clamping means 70 hold the flange 68 against the flange 66, the seal 74 is compressed and exerts a force of friction on the current part 38A of the envelope, ensuring maintenance in position of the heat shield 54. Thus, as a function of the length of the sleeve 54, the position of the heat shield can be adjusted, so that the sleeve 54 protrudes from the lining 36 over a length predetermined. Advantageously, this length is of the order of 7 cm.

    Lorsque le manchon 54 est neuf, comme représenté sur la figure 2, celui-ci présente une grande longueur, par exemple égale à 40 cm. Ainsi, les moyens de montage 56 sont maintenus en arrière et l'essentiel de la longueur du manchon 54 s'étend en arrière de la garniture 36.When the sleeve 54 is new, as shown in FIG. 2, it has a great length, for example equal to 40 cm. So, the mounting means 56 are held behind and most of the length of the sleeve 54 extends behind the lining 36.

    Pendant le fonctionnement du brûleur, la face annulaire d'extrémité du manchon contenue à l'intérieur du four se dégrade progressivement, notamment sous l'action chimique des molécules d'oxydes de fer et de manganèse produites par le laitier résultant de la fonte en fusion. During burner operation, the annular end face of the sleeve contained inside the oven gradually degrades, in particular under the chemical action of the molecules of iron oxides and manganese produced by the slag resulting from molten iron.

    Avec la composition et la structure retenues pour le matériau réfractaire constituant le manchon 54, on constate que l'érosion de l'extrémité avant du manchon s'effectue suivant un plan s'étendant perpendiculairement à l'axe de celui-ci. Ainsi, afin de maintenir constante la longueur de la partie du manchon faisant saillie par rapport à la garniture 36, l'utilisateur du four avance périodiquement le manchon pour compenser la quantité de matière érodée à son extrémité.With the composition and structure chosen for the material refractory constituting the sleeve 54, it can be seen that the erosion of the front end of the sleeve takes place along a plane extending perpendicular to the axis thereof. So in order to keep constant the length of the part of the sleeve projecting from the lining 36, the user of the oven periodically advances the sleeve to compensate the amount of material eroded at its end.

    Comme représenté sur la figure 3, après un certain temps de fonctionnement, les moyens de montage 56 sont pratiquement totalement reçus à l'intérieur de la jupe 57 et la longueur restante du manchon est réduite à l'épaisseur du garnissage 36 et à la longueur faisant saillie par rapport à celui-ci à l'intérieur du four.As shown in Figure 3, after a period of operation, the mounting means 56 are almost completely received inside the skirt 57 and the remaining length of the sleeve is reduced to the thickness of the lining 36 and to the length projecting by compared to it inside the oven.

    On conçoit qu'avec un tel dispositif, l'extrémité du brûleur est en permanence correctement protégée, l'écran thermique dépassant toujours l'extrémité d'éjection du brûleur d'une même distance.It is understood that with such a device, the end of the burner is in permanently protected, the heat shield always protruding the burner ejection end by the same distance.

    Bien que le matériau constituant le manchon 54 subisse une érosion, celle-ci est suffisamment lente pour permettre qu'un réglage périodique de la position de l'écran thermique suffise pour éviter une dégradation de l'extrémité du brûleur.Although the material constituting the sleeve 54 undergoes erosion, this is slow enough to allow a periodic adjustment of the position of the heat shield is sufficient to avoid degradation of the end of the burner.

    Enfin, le faible coût du manchon permet qu'il soit remplacé plusieurs fois au cours de la vie du four sans qu'il grève considérablement le coût d'exploitation de celui-ci.Finally, the low cost of the sleeve allows it to be replaced several times during the life of the oven without significantly increasing the cost operating it.
