Abstract: Apparatus for loading and unloading a firing table arrangement with product for firing, wherein the firing table arrangement comprises on at least one horizontal plane a plurality of rollers having ends disposed at a distance from one another for picking up the product for firing, comprises a supporting structure (20), aligned relative to the firing table arrangement, with two horizontally projecting supporting arms (24) each of them running traversely relative to the rollers, laterally outside the firing table arrangement which are accommodated on the supporting structure (20) so as to be adjustable in height, said supporting arms having inner sides facing one another and a front end, a drive member (26) disposed on the inner side of one supporting arm (24) which, after coupling to the rollers of the firing table arrangement, set them in a rotating movement, and a device disposed on the inner side of the other supporting arm for the rotatable guiding of the rollers of the firing table arrangement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a partition wall, made up of a multiplicity of segments intended for a multi-compartment furnace as used for firing graphite electrodes, for instance. The invention calls for expansion joints to be incorporated between the segments in a row of segments.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a device for supporting a conveying roller of a roller kiln.

Abstract: The invention relates to means for heat treating green bodies comprising two mutually parallel kiln channels operated in opposite directions each having at least one heating section, firing section, and cooling section, where an offtake means leads from one kiln channel to a combustion chamber, from which a supply means runs into the one or other kiln channel.

Abstract: To simplify the insertion and to improve the stability as well as to avoid mechanical damage to a ceiling of an industrial furnace, the invention proposes a fire-resistant ceiling element to be used as a self-supporting building element which can be inserted on the side of the furnace channel.
