  • Insulation system for shafts through which hot gases flow
    Patent number: 6523577
    Abstract: An insulation system for shafts through which hot gases flow, especially exhaust gas shafts of gas turbines has an insulation layer (20, 40) as well as a flat cover (26, 39), which holds the insulation layer (20, 40) and covers it against the gas flow. The cover (26, 39) is guided by bearing rails (21, 41). In such an insulation system, the number of spacers (22, 23, 24; 47, 48, 49) by which the bearing rails (21, 41) are fastened to a shaft wall (25, 50) shall be minimized. Furthermore, the insulation system shall be able to be manufactured with a high degree of prefabrication in the workshop and with low assembly effort at the construction site. The bearing rails (21, 41) are fastened to the shaft wall (25, 50) with a fixed mount (31, 51) and at least one movable mount (32, 52).
