Abstract: A flue block for a heating wall of a coke oven battery, the flue block having a proximal end and a distal end, the flue block comprising a first aperture disposed within the flue block, and a riser arranged in said first aperture. The flue block may also comprise a second aperture disposed therein, the second aperture spaced apart from the first aperture, and a second riser arranged in the second aperture. The flue block may be configured such that the riser is arranged to extend past the proximal end of the flue block. The flue block may be also configured such that the first riser extends past the proximal end. The flue block may be further configured such that the second riser extends past the proximal end.

Abstract: A corbel for a coke oven, including a gunblock section having a longitudinal through-bore arranged therein, the gunblock section having at least one substantially vertical though-bore in communication with the longitudinal through-bore. The gunblock section may be integral with a base. The gunblock section may also include a substantially vertical-angular channel open to a first end of the gunblock section and also open to a first side of the gunblock section.

Abstract: A duct operatively arranged to fluidly connect a first flue of a heating wall of a coke oven battery with a second flue of the heating wall, the duct comprising a first end, second end, a distal end and a proximal end, a passageway disposed therein, the passageway extending from the first end to the second end, a pair of proximal apertures disposed within the proximal end and open to the passageway, and a pair of distal apertures disposed within the proximal end and open to the passageway, the distal apertures arranged be in fluid communication with the passageway, wherein one of the distal apertures is arranged to be in fluid communication with the first flue of the coke oven battery and the other of the distal apertures is arranged to be in fluid communication with the second flue of the coke oven battery.

Abstract: A jib crane cart assembly including a platform having a proximal surface and a distal surface, the platform having a reinforcement structure between the proximal surface and the distal surface, a pair of masts extending from the proximal surface of the platform, each of the masts having a jib arm moveably secured thereto, and a set of wheels secured to the platform, wherein the set of wheels are arranged for a cart track of a coke oven battery.

Abstract: In a coke oven having a first heating wall and a second heating wall, a cross over duct arranged to fluidly connect the first heating wall and the second heating wall. The cross over duct further comprising a passageway in communication with the first heating wall and the second heating wall.

Abstract: An improved corbel includes a first tier having first blocks and a second tier having second blocks. Each of the first blocks includes a first aperture extending through the block from a first surface to a back surface and a second aperture formed through a top surface of the block, extending into the first aperture. The first blocks are arranged on a substantially planar surface to align the respective first apertures to define a first passageway. Each of the second blocks includes a third aperture extending through the second block from a top surface to a bottom surface. The second blocks are disposed above the first tier to align the third aperture of each of the second blocks with the second aperture of the first blocks to form a second passageway.
