Arrangement for mounting a barrel ring on the casting of a rotary cylinder

摘要

A rotary kiln construction wherein the kiln cylinder has an annular bearing ring for supporting the kiln in rotation with spacer plates located between the ring and the outer surface of the cylinder and circumferentially spaced from each other with supporting assemblies at each axial side of the bearing ring secured to the outer surface of the cylinder having retaining elements projecting on both circumferential sides of the plates and being radially outward of the plates to provide a radial inward support to the plate ends constructed for retaining the plates and for ease of replacement and removal without rewelding the full plate assembly on the cylinder.
