ABSTRACT:
A walking beam section of a cooling bed receives hot lengths of rails or beams for cooling through a first temperature range. Beams are turned at the end of the walking-beam section and positioned into a layered collection after which the collection is transferred throughout a second section of the cooling bed to a delivery section where chain conveyors deliver the beams to a run-out table for inspection and straightening. A layered collection of rails is moved from the delivery side of the walking-beam section to one of a plurality of discharge stations defined along the subsequently-arranged cooling bed section. Before the rails cool to a temperature below 725.degree. F., typically at 950.degree. F., the rails at each discharge station are lifted by a crane and transferred in the direction of their length to one of a plurality of insulated cooling boxes at one lateral side of the cooling bed. After the rails are slowly cooled in the cooling boxes, they are removed for further processing.
