Patent ID: 8613875

Claim:
A method for the successive production of coal pressing blocks suitable for coke oven chambers, wherein the coal is poured from a coal feeder device into a press mould comprised of a movable plate equipped with a back-foldable arrest wall impermeable to coal, and comprised of two walls extending in parallel to the direction of movement of the plate and being stationary in one horizontal direction, said walls being movable perpendicular to the direction of movement of the plate in the other horizontal direction into the desired position so that the press mould is permeable to coal only in one horizontal direction, and wherein the side of the press mould which is permeable to coal is closed by a stationary closure wall during the production of coal pressing blocks and moved towards the plate so that the coal is retained by the press mould in the horizontal shape so as to obtain a coal pressing block on pressing, and wherein the plate is moved horizontally in the longitudinal direction of the press mould upon completion of a coal pressing block, and wherein the plate can continue to be transversely displaceable in horizontal direction, wherein for the pressing procedure the plate is braked or arrested in horizontal direction or moved against the stationary closure wall, and the coal is compacted by a stamping device pressed by a device with a vertically acting force onto the coal in the press mould, with the coal being retained by the press mould in the horizontal shape so as to obtain a coal pressing block, and the space in the press mould exposed in horizontal direction as the plate is moved on is utilized for the production of the next coal pressing block.
