ABSTRACT:
In an electrode arrangement utilized for heating electric crucibles in glass melting processes, each electrode consists of several spaced electrode plates arranged in parallel and attached to connecting elements. The connecting elements of two neighboring electrodes are disposed in parallel to one another, and the electrode plates of each electrode are staggered with respect to those of the adjacent electrode by half the plate spacing. By using this arrangement, the electrode plates project into the space between the neighboring electrode plates. Consequently, a larger heat output per unit volume of glass melt is achieved without endangering the integrity of the refractory material of which the crucible is made.
