ABSTRACT:
A conveyor used in combination with an incinerator that burns refuse into residue including hard objects has a trough having a lower upstream portion underneath the incinerator and positioned to receive the residue therefrom and an upper downstream portion spaced therefrom in a longitudinal transport direction. A body of quenching liquid fills at least the downstream portion of the trough to a liquid level. Respective upstream and downstream wheels at the upstream and downstream ends of the trough rotatable about generally parallel and horizontal axes transverse of the trough and direction support a chain formed of a succession of linked-together plates and having catenary-like upper and lower sketches both of which are in the upstream portion below the liquid level. Thus residue issuing from the incinerator falls into the liquid, is quenched, and lands on the upper chain stretch. A drive connected to at least one of the wheels rotates both the wheels and advances the chain with its upper stretch moving in the transport direction to convey the residue that has fallen onto the upper stretch up out of the liquid to the downstream trough end.
