Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for recovering pure naphthalene from hot crude coke oven gas. The hot crude coke oven gas is directly cooled by means of sprinkling water directly thereon, and the naphthalene is recovered by subsequent filtering out of tar and other impurities, followed by cooling to obtain crystalline pure naphthalene. More specifically, after direct cooling of the hot crude coke oven gas, the gas is then guided through an electrofilter to be subsequently cooled in such a manner that the naphthalene contained in the crude coke oven gas is separated from the gaseous phase and is obtained in the form of pure naphthalene crystals without any required additional treatment.

Abstract: A coke-oven door has an annular periphery normally juxtaposed with an annular door frame. A seal assembly for the door has at least two flexible, relatively displaceable, metallic, and annular membranes each having an annular inner periphery and an annular outer periphery and a U-section channel fixed to the outer periphery of only one of the membranes, open toward the door, and having annular inner and outer edges. The other membrane bears on the one membrane and therethrough on the channel. A mount secures the inner peripheries of the membranes to the periphery of the door. A spring urges the edges of the channel with a spring force against the door frame.

Abstract: The invention relates to a coke oven door (1) with a gas channel that substantially encloses the oven door and a membrane that is fastened on the coke oven door (1) and that can be forced against the chamber frame against the action of a spring. The gas channel (5) is fastened on an at least bilayered membrane (3).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing naphthalene from coke oven crude gas. The coke oven crude gas is directly cooled by means of sprinkling water thereon, and the naphthalene is obtained by subsequent refrigerating and treatment. The invention is characterised in that after direct cooling, the coke oven crude gas is then guided through an electrofiler to be subsequently cooled in such a manner that the naphthalene contained in the coke oven crude gas is separated from the gaseous phase and is obtained in the form of pure naphthalene without any additional treatment.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for synchronous guiding a roller bearing cage for a roller bearing performing swivel motions, the device comprising a roller cage and bearing parts which swivel relative to one another, the roller cage provided with a pinion gear formed on two diametrically opposed sites with curved toothed segments having different pitch circle diameters, the toothed segments meshing with the teeth of the bearing parts.

Abstract: In a method for the radial expansion of rings, in particular by means of rolling tools, it is provided in accordance with the invention that the radial surfaces and the end faces of the ring that is to be machined are machined in alternation using the same pair of tools. The apparatus for performing the method includes a ring rolling machine in which the ring that is to be formed rests on a support that is pivotable by 90.degree. to alternatively bring the radial surfaces and the end faces of the ring into engagement with the tools.

Abstract: In the preparation of 2-oximinophenylacetonitrile by reacting benzyl cyanide with an alkyl nitrite in the presence of a base, the improvement which comprises employing an inorganic base as the base and effecting the reaction in an aqueous solution of an alcohol. Advantageously the reaction mixture, consisting of an alcohol, an aqueous solution of an inorganic base and benzyl cyanide, is circulated by means of a pump and thereby operates an injector which sucks in the alkyl nitrite. Desirably the alkyl nitrite is a C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl nitrate having the same alkyl radical as the alcohol, about 1.05 to 1.15 moles of alkyl nitrite are employed per mole of benzyl cyanide, the inorganic alkali is an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide, the molar ratio of benzyl cyanide to potassium or sodium hydroxide is about 1:1.1-1.3, the reaction is effected at about 20.degree. to 40.degree.
