International Classification:

F23M 500

US Classification:

110336

Abstract:

An insulating lining is made up of modules of ceramic fibre, each hung over a module rod. The modules are held in tight side by side relation by engaging the rods with respective engaging means spaced along a hanger rod extending through the modules. The engaging means are spaced apart by a distance selected according to the degree of compression desired in the modules.

Abstract:

Disclosed is a heat chamber wall having an insulating lining comprised of at least one row of modules of heat insulating material. Each module is comprised of a length of material folded over to define at least two side portions with a bight portion. The modules are supported by a module rod extending through its associated module. A mounting clip is secured to the module rod and extends to one side thereof. The clip has an aperture of predetermined configuration extending therethrough along an axis offset and generally perpendicular to the axis of the module rod. Elongated generally straight hangers dimensioned to extend through the aperture in the mounting clip and to bind therewith in locking fashion when the axis of the aperture is tilted relative to the axis of the hanger rod under the elastic compressive force exerted by the modules.
