A Practical Treatise on Foundry Irons. E-book. Formato PDF Edward Kirk - Forgotten Books, 2017 -
This volume has been prepared at the earnest request of many founders seeking practical information on foundry irons and their manipulation in the production of the various lines of castings. It has been the aim of the author to present, in a condensed form, only such matter as is of practical value to the founder and to eliminate as far as possible all theories that have not been established as principles and all laboratory experimental work that has not been fully demonstrated to be useful in actual foundry practice. It has been endeavored to give all useful up-to — date data on the manipulation of Foundry Irons as actually practiced in foundries, by both the old and the new methods; and thus, it is hoped to place before the founder, foundry foreman, moulder and melter such a variety of methods that he cannot fail to oh tain desired results under any and all of the various conditions met with in the manipulation of these irons.
Dr. Edward Kirk's System of Foundry Practice: Cupola Practice. E-book. Formato PDF Edward Kirk - Forgotten Books, 2017 -
This was a round, straight cupola, with an inside air cham ber formed by cast-iron staves shaped to give a bosh at the bottom of the cupola and a taper back from the bosh to the straight' lining. The tuyeres consisted of a series of round open ings of from one inch to three inches in diameter. These were made of cast iron and fastened to the staves by cleats cast upon them. The three-inch openings were placed in a row three or four inches apart around the cupola at a proper height above the sand bottom, a second row of a smaller diameter Was placed over each tuyere in the first row, but only one inch above it, and another of smaller diameter one inch above this, and so on, until six, eight or ten rows were put in, the lower one being. Three inches and the top one one inch in diameter. This tuyere was called the Truesdale reducing tuyere. These tuyeres were placed so closely together that fire brick could not be placed between them, and a plastic cupola daubing was placed between them to serve as a cupola lining.
