Patent ID: 6874433

Claim:
An incinerator for incinerating solid wastes, comprising: a furnace that defines a combustion chamber therein; a feed supply adapted for containing the solid wastes therein; a feed-delivering conduit connected to said feed supply and said furnace so as to permit delivery of the solid wastes into said combustion chamber wherein said feed-delivering conduit has a laterally extending segment that extends in said transverse direction through said furnace, and that has a feed-discharging end disposed in said combustion chamber and opening downwardly, said transverse segment of said air distributor being disposed above said feed-discharging end, said elongated segment of said air distributor extending upwardly from said transverse segment in said longitudinal direction away from said feed-discharging end of said laterally extending segment of said feed-delivering conduit; an air supply connected to said furnace for supplying air into said combustion chamber wherein said air supply includes an air blower, and an air conduit connected to said air blower and said furnace; and an air distributor that is disposed in said combustion chamber, that is connected to said air supply, and that has an elongated segment which extends in a longitudinal direction the same as a flow direction of combustion gases in said combustion chamber, and which is formed with a plurality of spaced apart holes distributed along said longitudinal direction, each of said holes opening in a transverse direction relative to said longitudinal direction so as to permit uniform distribution of air into said combustion chamber wherein said air distributor is in the form of an L-shaped pipe, and further has a transverse segment that extends from said elongated segment in said transverse direction and that is connected to said air conduit.
