Publication number: 20090293785Abstract: A chain grate for a combustion system is disclosed, comprising a continuous belt of connected links. The links have a generally boxlike configuration open to below and comprise a substantially solid upper surface, and at least one downwardly projecting wall. At least some of said links comprise at least one vent open to said surface. The grate comprises an array of substantially isolated cells open to below and a substantially continuous upper surface defined by said links. The vents permit combustion gas to travel from the interior of said cells to said surface. The links are joined together in a linear array by a hinge structure at the opposing ends of the links. The grate is intended to be supported by a bed which includes one or more plenums which have a flat upper surface for supporting the grate. The grate rests upon the flat surface to effectively form a sealed, cellular structure defined by the interior spaces within the link bodies.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 3, 2009Publication date: December 3, 2009Inventor: James GALLANT

Patent number: 7440254Abstract: A micro-electromechanical variable capacitor with first and second capacitor plates spaced apart to define a gap therebetween. The first plate has two control electrodes and an active electrode. The second plate is movable relative to first plate when a voltage is applied to produce a potential difference across the control electrode and the second capacitor plate. This has the effect of varying the capacitance of the capacitor. The facing surface of at least one of the plates is formed in such a way that it has a roughened surface. The degree of roughness is sufficient to prevent the facing surfaces adhering together through stiction.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2003Date of Patent: October 21, 2008Assignee: RFMD (UK) LimitedInventor: Andrew James Gallant
