Patent number: 11781198Abstract: The invention relates to a device for temperature-controlling a component part. The device has a temperature-control zone, along which the component part is movable along a conveying direction. The temperature-control zone is configured to temperature-control at least one temperature-control section of the component part. Furthermore, the device has a temperature-control zone controller, which is configured to cover a covering region of the temperature-control zone such that in the covering region a temperature-control effect from the temperature-control zone on the temperature-control section of the component part is reducible. Herein, the temperature-control zone controller is configured so as to adjust the size of the covering region.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2016Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: Ebner Industrieofenbau GmbHInventors: Robert Ebner, Peter Seemann, Andreas Sauschlager

Patent number: 11644240Abstract: The present invention relates to a temperature-control unit for a furnace device for heat treating a plate, in particular a metal plate. The temperature-control unit has a temperature-control body, which is arrangeable in a furnace chamber of the furnace device. The temperature-control body has a plurality of receiving bores. Furthermore, the temperature-control unit has a plurality of temperature-control pins, wherein the temperature-control pins are mounted in the receiving bores movably relative to the temperature-control body. The temperature-control pins are controllable in such a way that a temperature-control group of the temperature-control pins is extendable from the temperature-control body in the direction towards the plate, so that a thermal contact between the temperature-control group of the temperature-control pins and a predetermined temperature-control zone of the plate is generatable.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2018Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: Ebner Industrieofenbau GmbHInventors: Robert Ebner, Andreas Sauschlager, Anton Oppermann, Daniel Schatz, Günter Kirschner, Lukas Heitzmann, Harald Humer, Mustafa Music

Patent number: 11598580Abstract: The present invention relates to a furnace device for heating a plate, in particular a metal plate, by convection. The furnace device has a housing, in which a temperature control region for temperature-controlling a component part and an adjustment region are formed, wherein the adjustment region has a temperature control device for adjusting a temperature of a temperature control fluid. Further, the furnace device has a positioning device for positioning the plate in the temperature control region in a predetermined orientation, and a ventilator, which is arranged in the housing and which is adapted to circulate the temperature control fluid in the housing between the temperature control region and the adjustment region such that the temperature control fluid is flowable in a flow direction along a surface of the plate.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2019Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: Ebner Industrieofenbau GmbHInventors: Robert Ebner, Ulrich Pschebezin, Manoj Kumar, Andreas Sauschlager

Patent number: 8790115Abstract: A method is described for preheating annealing goods in a hood-type annealing installation, comprising two annealing bases (1, 2) which accommodate the annealing goods (3, 4) under a protective cover (7, 8), with the annealing goods (3) to be subjected to a heat treatment under a protective cover (8) being preheated with the help of a gaseous heat carrier which is guided in a cycle between two protective covers (7, 8) and absorbs heat from annealing goods (4) which are heat-treated in a protective cover (7) and emits it to the annealing goods (3) to be preheated in the other protective cover (8). In order to avoid contaminations of the heat-treated annealing goods (4) it is proposed that the heat carrier flow guided in a cycle flows around the two protective covers (7, 8) on the outside, whereas a protective gas is circulated within the protective covers (7, 8).Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2010Date of Patent: July 29, 2014Assignee: Ebner Industrieofenbau Gesellschaft m.b.H.Inventors: Robert Ebner, Gerhard Denk, Heribert Lochner, Andreas Sauschlager

Publication number: 20110308780Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger (1) for an annealing furnace for exchanging heat between two fluids, comprising a tubular profile which comprises heat exchanger fins on its outside jacket and which is associated on at least one face side (3) with a connecting flange (4) with at least one flow opening (8) for one of the two fluids, especially a hot gas. In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that the profile is a profile tube made of a folded sheet whose heat exchanger fins (7) aligned in the longitudinal direction of the profile are formed by the corrugated profile, especially the corrugated flanks, of the folded sheet.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 9, 2009Publication date: December 22, 2011Applicant: Ebner Industrieofenbau Gesellschaft m.b.H.Inventors: Peter Ebner, Brigitte Ebner, Andreas Sauschlager
