Coke quenching apparatus

A coke quenching car comprises an open coke receptacle having a sloping bottom wall inclined toward one side, closely spaced vertical internal walls, a vertical side wall opposite the one side and end walls. All of the walls are formed with cooling fluid passages. The vertical side wall includes a coke discharge opening closed by a swingable L-shaped flap having a leg portion with a cooling fluid passage and a foot portion underhanging the bottom wall in a closed position. The foot portion is provided with aperatures for draining quench water from the receptacle when the flap is swung into a drain position. A fluid cooled slidable cover for the receptacle is provided.


What is claimed is:
1. An apparatus for the quenching of coke which comprises an upwardly open coke receptacle having a sloping bottom wall inclined toward one side of said receptacle, closely spaced vertical internal walls, a vertical side wall opposite said one side and end walls, each of said walls being provided with passages for a cooling fluid, said vertical side wall of said receptacle including an opening for discharging quenched coke;
an L-shaped flap swingably mounted on said vertical side wall of said receptacle and having a leg portion provided with a passage for a cooling fluid and a foot portion underhanging said bottom wall in a closed position of said flap, said foot portion being provided with apertures for the discharge of quench water from said receptacle upon a partial displacement of said flap out of said closed position thereof to a drain position wherein said opening remains closed to drain quench water from coke in said receptacle through said apertures, said flap being swingable upwardly from said drain position in which quench water is drained to discharge coke from said receptacle;
a cover slidable over said receptacle for covering same and formed with cooling passages for a cooling fluid; and
inlet means for supplying said passages with cooling fluid.
