METHOD OF CHARGING COKE OVENS

摘要

A plurality of coking ovens are arranged in a horizontal row, and an endless scraper conveyor is mounted above the charging holes of the ovens and has an upper run and a lower run. A quantity of coal is admitted onto the lower run of the conveyor at one end portion thereof to be transported lengthwise of the row. Coal is charged from the lower run into respective ones of the ovens in a sequence which progresses from a downstream end of the row counter to the direction of transportation, and the charging of each oven is terminated when a signal is generated that indicates that a predetermined filling level in the oven has been reached.
