Abstract
A furnace grate structure for a furnace or incinerator on which solid fuel advances in an advancing direction has at least two parallel grate beams extending substantially transversely to the advancing direction, the beams being mounted on a substructure and forming upwardly facing support surfaces. A bank of elongated grate bars which extend substantially parallel to the advancing direction are supported on the upwardly facing support surfaces, and are spaced from each other. Each of the grate beams comprises a plurality of sections arranged end to end so that the length of the grate beams can be varied simply by changing the number of sections.
