  • Patent number: 5513801
    Abstract: The invention relates to a burner head for burner units, comprising a single or multiple injector gas mixing system for the interior and/or exterior mixing of various fuel constituents, particularly fuel gases, auxiliary combustion gases and possibly liquid fuel gases, formed by an intermediate piece in which feed ducts for the fuel constituents are provided from an equipment connecting surface to a nozzle connecting side, and comprising a nozzle which consists of a center part having ducts and at least one cap part, for the mixing of at least two fuel constituents, the first ducts assigned to a first fuel constituent and distributed around the circumference leading into first injector nozzle bores which, in turn, are connected with a radial injector gap formed by an annular gap between the center part and the cap part, and the second ducts assigned to the second fuel constituent and distributed around the circumference also leading into the radial injector gap, in which case, in the intermediate piece, radia

  • Patent number: 5443861
    Abstract: A method for the production of polycrystalline diamond coatings, in which carbon from a carbon-containing gas mixture is precipitated onto a substrate heated to a preselected temperature, wherein the substrate is disposed inside a coolable detonation-combustion chamber of a high-velocity burner system or in a detonation gun and an atmosphere preventing oxidation of the surface of the substrate is created and this inert gas atmosphere is then replaced by a carbon-rich detonation mixture atmosphere. The method can also be implemented, if desired, with use of a high-velocity burner system without a combustion chamber and without a detonation gun.

  • Patent number: 5234164
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for high-speed flame spraying of refractory wire and powder weld filler for the coating of surfaces, using at least two gas mix systems operating independently of each other, with which the wire or powder spray weld filler brought into the primary chamber is melted by primary heating flames arranged concentrically around a charging channel, accelerated with the resulting high-speed flame and conveyed through an expansion nozzle into a downstream secondary combustion chamber; the latter is streamed through while the molten plastic weld filler is carried along by the primary high-speed flame at supersonic speed, which runs into an axially centrally widened, downstream and water cooled secondary expansion nozzle, or into its bore, so that in the area of radially, axially and focusingly arranged secondary fuel gas-oxygen channels running into the secondary combustion chamber a partial vacuum area is produced and a hot gas mixture with low streaming pressures can be added, whereb

  • Patent number: 5165705
    Abstract: A high-speed flame spraying gun is provided with a water-cooled combustion chamber, an injection gas mixing block and an expanding nozzle. In the high-speed flame spraying gun, the surfaces acted upon by gas and flame possess a surface film which as no affinity to the molten admixed spray material or the other combustion residues. The surface film preferably lines the combustion chamber and/or an expansion nozzle coupled thereto.

  • Patent number: 4835022
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the coating of components, wherein a plastic-containing layer is sprayed onto the surface of the components. During spraying, at least one mixture component consisting of a material other than plastic is added directly to a plastic powder. The plastic powder and the mixture component are supplied separately and are separately adjustable.

  • Patent number: 4201341
    Abstract: An apparatus is provided for hard facing by powder flame spraying of inner surfaces of bores of relatively large workpieces difficult to mount rotatably, such as Diesel engine blocks, and the like. The apparatus comprises a stand, a carriage support pivotally and mounted to the stand via a holding mechanism coupled to the stand and adapted to be adjustably inclined and to move vertically between a pair of supporting columns of the stand. A carriage is mounted on the carriage support and has a burner assembly mounted to and extending transversely from the carriage, the burner assembly comprising a burner mounting having a longitudinal member extending therefrom through which powder flame spray material is fed, the member terminating into a nozzle disposed transverse to the longitudinal axis of the longitudinal member. The carriage is slidably mounted on the carriage support and has a mechanism associated therewith for sliding the carriage along the axis of the longitudinal member.
