ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an improved spacer assembly for use in an electrostatic precipitator. The electrostatic precipitator collects solid particles carried by a flue gas from a source of combustion. The precipitator includes a plurality of spaced parallel plates for collecting the above mentioned particles by electrostatic attraction of the particles to the plates. Each of the plates has a plurality of stiffeners extending outward from the respective plate. Each stiffener is opposite a like stiffener on the opposed plate. A plurality of spacer assemblies is positioned between opposed plates to hold the plates in a flat attitude and to maintain adjacent surfaces of opposed plates equidistantly spaced from one another. Each of the spacer assemblies includes a spacer having opposite ends abutting a pair of opposed parallel plates adjacent to the respective stiffeners of the plates. An upright is connected to the spacer. A second spacer assembly is connected to the first mentioned spacer assembly and is locked thereto. The second spacer assembly includes a spacer extending between the parallel plates. Several spacer assemblies are thus locked together resulting in a plurality of spacers extending between parallel plates adjacent to the stiffeners of the plate.
