ABSTRACT:
An inertial conveyor has at least one transporting surface or section slidably arranged on rails with the rear end of the section sliding over an immovable rest, shifting means, preferably an adjustable spring, which permits the section to shift toward the rest and drive means for delivering lateral driving impulses of acceleration in one direction with an acceleration which is more than the acceleration of the friction force of any material on the surface to the section. The shifting means in between the driving impulses delivering lateral movement to the section in the opposite direction with less acceleration than that of material thus causing a non-harmonic movement so that the friction force will be overcome and material on the surface will move toward the immovable rest. In a preferred embodiment the inertial conveyor includes a plurality of sections and is part of a grate stoker.
