  • Patent number: 7669439
    Abstract: A glass melting furnace has a gas inlet positioned proximate to a charging section oxy-fuel combustion region to introduce gas into the region and to at least partially displace gas having a partial pressure of alkali vapor from the region, and optionally a gas outlet is adapted to provide an exit for a volume of furnace atmosphere. A method for reducing alkali vapor corrosion of glass furnace refractory structures includes providing a gas inlet proximate to the oxy-fuel combustion region; introducing a volume of gas from the inlet into the region, displacing a volume of gas having a partial pressure of alkali vapor from the region; and, optionally providing a gas outlet adapted to provide an exit for a volume of furnace atmosphere.

  • Publication number: 20060021552
    Abstract: A table includes a table top with an underside. A support is rotatably connected to the underside of the table top and is rotatable at least between a stored position lying generally adjacent the underside and an extended position in which the support extends generally away from the underside. A bearing brace is hingedly attached to the support at a joint and includes a first end distal from the joint. A set-up latch is on the underside of the table top, with the first end of the bearing brace being releasably securable in the set-up latch when the support is in the extended position.

  • Patent number: 6837007
    Abstract: A roof support with an integral gutter including a roof support, a panel joint cover, and a gutter for a small storage or utility building or shed having a shallow-pitched roof. In particular, the roof support with integral gutter includes a support web, an exposure surface perpendicularly bisecting the support web, and a collector perpendicularly bisecting the support web opposite the exposure surface. The roof support with integral gutter is made by the pultrusion process, which eliminates the need for additional and separate components to provide rigidity and strength to the roof support.
