Abstract:
All of a cast-iron or cast-copper stave cooler's weight is supported inside a furnace containment shell by single gas-tight steel collar on the backside. All the coolant piping in each cooler has every external connection collected and routed together through the one steel collar. A wear protection barrier is disposed on the hot face. Such is limited to include at least one of horizontal rows of ribs and channels that retain metal inserts or refractory bricks, or pockets that assist in the retention of castable cement and/or accretions frozen in place from a melt, or an application of an area of hardfacing that is welded on in bead, crosshatch, or weave pattern.

Claim (Index 1):
A wear-resistant stave cooler subject to a combination of abrasion, impacts, metallic, corrosion, heat and other effects during its use in a furnace, comprising:\n a cast copper body in which are cast liquid coolant piping, and including a hot face subject to wear during use; a single steel collar embedded, or otherwise anchored into a backside of the cast copper body, and laterally positioned such that the stave cooler will hang on only it straight, and in which all external piping connections of the liquid coolant piping within are collected together as a single group and routed through the single steel collar; and a wear protection barrier disposed on the hot face and that is limited to include at least one of horizontal rows of ribs and channels that retain metal inserts or refractory bricks, or pockets that assist in the retention of castable cement and/or accretions frozen in place from a melt, or an application of an area of hardfacing that is welded on in bead, crosshatch, or weave pattern.
