Abstract

A device for supplying gas to a revolving cylindrical furnace. Over the length of the rotary axis of the revolving furnace, gas-permeable bricks are used in the region of the fireproof lining of the revolving furnace mantle. The bricks are made of porous, ceramic material, and terminate flush with the surface of the fireproof lining of the revolving furnace. The bricks may have a sheet metal mantle surrounding the same. The gas-permeable bricks have bottom sheet metal plates into which respectively a gas supply connection is welded. Measuring, regulating and control devices may be installed in and on the gas supply connections.
