Click to enlargeClick to enlarge Description

The latest machine which automatically receives, quenches, screens, and delivers the whole charge of an oven into any available truck along the whole line of coke ovens, is that of Goodall, and was erected for the Weardale Steel, Coal, and Coke Co. Spennymoor (see Figure). The machine consists of a large iron frame running on eight wheels, on rails placed in the position usually occupied by the bench or quenching floor. It is fitted with motor and gearing to propel it along the rails in either direction, and to revolve the table or coke receptacle, and drive the shaking screen. In the centre of the frame there is a substantial cast-steel footstep bearing, which receives a short vertical spindle. From this axle, leading to the periphery, horizontal girders are fixed which are connected at their extremity by a cast-steel ring having teeth at its lower edge, and forming a large wheel which gears into a pinion on a horizontal shaft.
