Title of the Invention
ASSEMBLING INCINERATOR
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTTON
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an improved
invention of an assembling incinerator for burning refuses to
be burned such as industrial wastes, raw garbage and rubbish
which can be assembled and disassembled by use of a
combination of box-shaped external wall materials and the
like.
Description of the Prior Art
~In a conventional incinerator for burning refuses to
be burned, external walls which constitute the incinerator,
internal walls which constitute the inside of the incinerator
and other parts are integrated. Accordingly, the incinerator
cannot be disassembled into parts to be recycled. There are
no parts of the incinerator which can be disassembled.
The conventional incinerator~is a box system
resulting from integration of the members of a dryer, a
carbonizes, biological treatment equipment, fusing equipment
and the like. Further, since no standard forms are defined
for the parts of the incinerator, it has been impossible to
design and produce the parts of the inc_~nerator in a short
time, assemble the produced parts of the incinerator in a
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
2
short time, and produce the incinerator at low cost.
Further, the size of the conventional incinerator
cannot be changed since there are no members whose sizes can
be increased or decreased to/from small, medium and large
sizes. In addition, since the incinerator has an integral
structure, maintenance thereof is not easy to implement, and
there occurs a limit to the capacity of the incinerator into
which refuses to be burned are thrown. Thus, the
conventional incinerator has a problem that only skilled
technicians can deal with the maintenance of the incinerator
and repair, reconstruction and replacement when a portion of
the incinerator is broken.
Further, the conventional incinerator cannot be set
up at places such as a remote island, a mountainous region, a
high mountain, a deep forest, a fierce area, a remote country
district, a bill without an elevator, the roof of a building,
a basement, a narrow path and the like. Further, the
assembly of the incinerator requires an assembling machine
such as a large-size crane. Therefore,, not everyone can
assemble the incinerator.
Under the circumstances, an object of the present
invention is to provide an assembling :incinerator which
comprises small-sized members, does not need a long time to
assemble and set up, is inexpensive; can be changed in size
readily, requires no skilled technicians for maintenance, is
not limited to a particular capacity, ;end requires no
assembling machine such as a large-size crane.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
To achieve the above object, an assembling
incinerator of the present invention comprises external wall
materials whose combination can be freely changed to form the
incinerator and each of which comprises an external wall, a
heat insulating material and a fire-re~;istant material, a
caster (fire-resistant cement) which comprises the heat
insulating material and fire-resistant material constituting
the external wall material and joins the external wall,
caster-fixing bolts which penetrate from the caster to the
external wall so as to fix the caster, tapered pins which
join the external wall materials together, and a seal packing
for external walls which fills a gap beaween the external
walls when the pins are used to join the external wall
materials together. The tapered pins a,re used to stop
misalignment which gradually occurs upc>n assembly due to a
large number of parts and correct the size of the incinerator.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Hereinafter, the incinerator of the present
invention will be described in detail with reference to the
attached drawings.
Figs. 1 to 4 show a first embodiment of the
incinerator (hereinafter simply referred to as "incinerator")
of the present invention wherein refuses to be burned are fed
to a hearth.
Fig. 1 is a first embodiment of the assembling
incinerator of the present invention, l?ig. 2 is a second
embodiment of the assembling incinerator, and Figs. 3 to 5
are a transverse sectional diagram, A-A longitudinal
sectional diagram and B-B longitudinal sectional diagram of
the second embodiment of the assembling incinerator.
As shown in Fig. 1, an assembling incinerator 1 of
the present invention comprises a cyclone 6 having a burner 7
or the like for burning refuses to be burned, an L-shaped
smoke path section 3 which connects they cyclone 6 to an
incineration section 4, and the incineration section 4 for
burning rubbish and the like. The rubbish and the like are
not yet burned. Hereinafter; they are referred to refuses to
be burned 12.
The external walls of the cyclone 6, smoke path
section 3 and incineration section 4 are constituted by a
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
23
plurality of block-shaped external wall materials 2 and 2a
which can be disassembled and recycled. The external wall
materials 2 and 2a are combined so as to form the cyclone 6
and the like. As materials of the external wall materials 2
and 2a, metals and reinforced materials such as reinforced
incombustible plastic can be used.
Further, as shown in Fig. l, the incineration
section 4 can have an external wall material 9 therearound
so as to surround the refuses to be burned 12 including raw
garbage and rubbish. On the top of the external wall
material 9 is formed a waved metal plate 10 which can cover
the refuses to be burned 12 so as to prevent leakage. The
metal plate 10 is a member for preventing rain water from
entering a combustion chamber 4a in the incineration section
4. The refuses 12 can also be covered with such a material
as heat-resistant glass or asbestos. In the following
detailed description, such a covering material is referred to
as "flange".
On the top of the cyclone 6, a smoke exhausting pipe
is provided. Further, on the right side face of the
cyclone 6, a first air pipe 3a which forms the smoke path
section 3 is provided. The first air pipe 3a has an Z shape.
The upper end of the first air pipe 3a is bent so as to be
connected to the top portion of the incineration section 4,
and the lower end of the first air pipe 3a is also bent so as
to be connected to the left side face of the incineration
section 4.
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
14
The inside of a cyclone chamber 6a of the cyclone 6
is formed in a rectangular shape, and a, blower 8 is mounted
at the bottom of the cyclone chamber 6a. Further, on the top
of the cyclone 6, the hollow smoke exhausting pipe 5 is
provided vertically.
Further, as shown in Fig. 1, the refuses to be
burned 12 are placed in the incineration section 4 in advance.
In addition, a second air pipe 3b is provided on the right
side face of the incineration section 4. As in the case of
the first air pipe 3a, the second air pipe 3b is bent so as
to take in fresh air in the direction pointed by the arrows.
The assembling incinerator I of the present
embodiment has such a structure that the incineration section
4 is connected to the cyclone 6. Thus, fresh air taken in
through the second air pipe 3b causes negative pressure and
high temperatures in the combustion chamber 4a in the
incineration section 4, and together with the fresh air, an
exhaust gas generated from the refuses to be burned 12 flows
into the cyclone chamber 6a of the cyclone 5 via the first
air pipe 3a.
Then, inside the cyclone chamber 6a, the exhaust gas
and the like become a vortex and can be exhausted, together
with further air sent from the blower 8, from the top of the
smoke exhausting pipe 5 by use of the blower 8 from the
bottom of the smoke exhausting pipe 5.
Thus, since the cyclone 6 which. forms the assembling
incinerator 1 of the present invention has such a structure
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
as described above, an exhaust gas taken in from the
combustion chamber 4a of the incineration section 4 can be
sent into the smoke exhausting pipe 5 together with wind
produced by driving the blower 8. Further, when the exhaust
gas is exhausted, a burner 7 can be provided in the middle of
the smoke exhausting pipe 5 so as to burn harmful substances
contained in the exhaust gas completely.
Further; as shown in Fig. 1, since there is no slot
on the top or side of the incineration section 4 of the
assembling incinerator 1 of the present invention, it is
impossible to charge the refuses to be burned 12 into the
combustion chamber 4a of the incineration section 4 directly.
Therefore, there is no possibility that incineration ashes
scatter in the air.
In addition, since the refuses to be burned 12 can
be covered with the metal plate 10 for preventing leakage,
there is no need to open a cover as pro,Jided on the
conventional incinerator each time the :refuses to be burned
12 are charged into the combustion chamber 4a, so that the
internal temperature of the combustion chamber 4a does not
lower. Thus, the assembling incinerator 1 of the present
embodiment is capable of smothering the refuses to be burned
12 from the air inlet side on the right side, gradually
shifting burning of the refuses 12 to the left side and
eventually burning the refuses 12 completely. Consequently,
the assembling incinerator 1 of the present embodiment does
not produce harmful substances such as dioxin.
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
Furthermore, in the assembling incinerator 1 of the
present embodiment, an exhaust gas containing imperfectly
combusted refuses, fine dust and harmful substances such as
dioxin resulting from combustion of the: refuses in the
combustion chamber 4a of the incineration section 4 is
completely removed by the cyclone 6, so that it does not
scatter in the air. Next, other embodiments and constituents
of the assembling incinerator 1 of the present invention will
be described.
An assembling incinerator 1a shown in Fig. 2 is a
longitudinal sectional diagram of a second embodiment of the
assembling incinerator of the present invention. The
assembling incinerator la comprises a cyclone 6, a combustion
chamber 4b of an incineration section 4 for burning rubbish
and the like, and a smoke path section 3 which connects a
cyclone chamber 6a of the cyclone 6 to the combustion chamber
4b. The external walls of the cyclone 6 and incineration
section 4 are formed by external wall materials 2 and 2a of
the present invention.
The shape of the appearance of the entire cyclone 6
is rectangular. the cyclone 6 comprises a combination of the
L-shaped external wall materials 2 which form the four
corners of the cyclone 6 and the external wall materials 2a
which form the linear surfaces of the cyclone '6. On the top
of the cyclone 6, an assembling smoke exhausting pipe 5a is
provided, while at the bottom of the cyclone 6, a blower 8 is
provided.
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
17
The blower sends an exhaust ga;s sent from the
combustion chamber 4b to the smoke exhausting pipe 5a. In
the smoke exhausting pipe 5a, harmful substances such as
dioxin can be burned by means of a burner 7 which is provided
in the middle of the smoke exhausting pipe 5a.
Hereinafter, the assembling incinerator 1 shown in
Fig. 1 which is the first embodiment and the assembling
incinerator la shown in Fig. 2 which is the second embodiment
will be base forms of the assembling incinerator of the
present invention. A difference between the assembling
incinerator 1 and the assembling incinerator 1a is the shape
of the incineration section 4. The assembling incinerator 1a
is also different from the assembling incinerator 1 in that
air slits lla which diagonally and downwardly slope and a
fire grate 11 on which the refuses to be burned 12 are placed
are provided as shown in Fig. 2. Further, a significant
difference therebetween is that the assembling incinerator 1
as the first embodiment burns the refuses from the side where
air is taken in, while the assembling incinerator 1a as the
second embodiment burns the refuses from bottom up.
As showri~in Fig. 2, incineration ashes resulting
from incineration of the refuses to be burned 12 can be
received in a movable ash tray 23 which is placed under the
fire grate 1I so as to receive the refuses to be burned 12.
The ash tray 13 has wheels so that when ashes are accumulated
in the ash tray from the combustion chamber 4a, the ash tray
13 can be taken out of the assembling incinerator 1 or 1a.
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
Fig. 3 shows a transverse sectional diagram of the
assembling incinerator 1a as the second embodiment. As shown
in Fig. 3, the cyclone 6 is provided on the left-hand side of
the assembling incinerator 1a, and the cyclone 6 has the
burner 7 for burning the refuses to be burned 12 and the like.
Meanwhile, the combustion chamber 4b is provided on the
right-hand side of the cyclone 6.
Fig. 4 is an A-A longitudinal sectional diagram of
the assembling incinerator 1a as the second embodiment.
Although the incineration section 4 has no ash tray disposed,
it may be disposed. An external wall material 4c which
constitutes the incineration section 4 comprises 3 layers and
can be disassembled. The external wall material 4c is
composed of, from the outside, an external wall 4d, a heat
insulating material 4e and a fire-resistant material 4f. The
external wall 4d, the heat insulating material 4e and the
fire-resistant material 4f are joined together by means of Y-
shaped fittings which penetrate the insides of these
materials perpendicularly to their surfaces.
Further, the external wall materials 4c can be
joined to each~other by, for example, inserting tapered pins
into a plurality of packing grooves 4h which are formed on
the external wall 4d.
Accordingly; since the assembling incinerator of the
present invention can be assembled from the external wall
material 4c, the assembling incinerator can be transported to
a remote island, a mountainous region, a high mountain, a~
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
19
deep forest, a fierce area, a remote country district, a bill
without an elevator, the roof of a building, a basement, a
narrow path and the like by disassembling the external wall
material 4c into the external wall 4d, the heat insulating
material 4e and the fire-resistant material 4f. The
incinerator can be assembled by anybody since assembly
thereof requires no large-size machine such as a crane.
Fig. 5 shows the right side view of the incineration
section Q of the second embodiment of the assembling
incinerator with the ash tray 13 placed in the combustion
chamber 4b. As shown in Fig. 5, the external wall of the
assembling incinerator 1a is constituted by the external wall
material 4c, and as shown in Fig. 5, the air slits lla and
the fire grate 11 are provided in the lower portion of the
combustion chamber 4b.
Fig. 6 shows a disassembled plan view 13a of a
transverse cross section of the cyclone 6 of the second
embodiment of the assembling incinerator. As shown in Fig. 6,
the constitution of the cyclone 6 can be divided into pre-
disassembly 13b and post-disassembly 13c.
In the pre-disassembly 13b of the cyclone, external
wall materials 13d each having an elbowed shape and external
wall materials 13e each having a square shape are gathered to
form a nearly octagonal shape. Further, the post-disassembly
13c representing a case where the cyclone is disassembled and
conveyed can be disassembled into the external wall materials
13d and 13e and packings 13f which fill gaps to prevent
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
2a
leakage of exhaust gas from the external wall materials 13d
and 13e so as to avoid a drop in the temperature of the
incinerator. They may farm any polygonal shape.
Fig. 7 shows parts used in the assembling
incinerator of the present invention. Parts 14 for the
assembling incinerator comprise external wall materials 14a
having an L shape, a rectangular shape and other shapes,
smoke exhausting pipe materials 14b which form a circle
corresponding to the shape of the smoke' exhausting pipe, legs
14c, and a fire grate 14d on which the refuses to be burned
12 are disposed. Further, detailed de4;criptions of a front
view and left side view of the ash tray 13 will be omitted.
That is, by combining the external wall materials
14a shown in Fig. 7 which form elbowed, T-shaped and L-shaped
external wall materials, the incineration section 4 and
cyclone 6 shown in Figs. l and 2 can be fabricated.
Further, by combining the external wall materials
14a, the size of the entire assembling incinerator can be
increased or decreased. Therefore, maintenance of the
incinerator and repair, reconstruction and replacement when
portions of the incinerator are broken are easy to do. The
smoke exhausting pipe materials 14b shown below the parts 14

Fig. 99 is an order placement flow sheet 99 of
assembling incinerator parts which shows from designing to
production of the assembling incinerator of the present
invention. As shown in Fig. 99, the flow sheet 99 comprises
a number of users 100 who are customer's, a number of
distributors 101 who sell the parts to the users 100, a
design company 102 which accepts requests for designing from
the distributors 101, and part producing factories 103 which
produce a number of parts such as external wall materials
whose design has. been requested.
Firstly, a user 100 can make a construction request
100a for decreasing or increasing the size of an incinerator
to a distributor 101. The request can be made by sending an
order form and design drawings by use of a FAX or the
Internet. In the following detailed description, data such
as a manual of an assembling incinerat or can be transmitted
and received through the Internet or mails with passwords.
As soon as receiving the request, the distributor
101 makes a new design request to the design company 102 and
sends image drawings of the assembling :incinerator to the
design company 102. An order request such as 101a or 101b of
making a request to sell parts such as external wall
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
57
materials used in the assembling incinerator or ordering
parts can be made via the Internet.
Further, the design company 102 and the distributor
101 can provide each other with data 101c on receipt of order
and production of parts.
Further, the design company 102 requests a part
production 103 to factories associated with many parts of the
world based on 102a of requesting new design and parts or
102b of requesting production of standard parts. Because a
conventional incinerator is an integral. structure, a long
time period of about 1 month has been required from the user
100 until the part production 103 is processed in the
factories.
After completion of the part production 103, the
factories can send 1001 the parts of the assembling
incinerator to the user 100 via the design company 102 and
the distributor 101. Alternatively, after completion of the
part production 103, the parts can be sent 1001 directly from
the factories to the user 100. The user 100 can make a
request 100h for maintenance to the factories.
Next, the shipped parts of the assembling
incinerator of the present invention must be assembled. Thus,
as a characteristic of the present invention, the design
company 102 which has made the request 102b for producing
standard parts instructs the distributor. 102 or the user to
whom the design company 102 has made a direct sale 100f of
the parts so as to allow the user to assemble 100e the parts
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
58
in accordance with a manual. Further, the design company 102
which makes a direct sell 100f of the assembling incinerator
of the present invention manages claims 1008 to the users 100.
Further, not.only the users 100 but also the
distributors also assemble the assembling incinerator.
Alternatively, the distributors may make a request 100b for
operators to assemble the incinerator to other companies.
Further, the distributors 101 can deal with management of
claims 100c from the users 100 and requests for maintenance
100d.
As can be seen from the above results, the
assembling incinerator of the present invention can be
produced and delivered in a short time since the incinerators
of the same type can be ordered to a plurality of design
companies and designers at the same ti~.e.
Further, the combustion chambers 4a and 4b of the
incineration sections 4 shown in Figs. 1 to 5 and the drying
chambers 67k, 71d, 73d, 74d, 75d, 76d, 77d, 78d, 80a, 81a,

Further, as shown in Fig. 114, the third ceramic
parts 115 are connected vertically so as to cover the
circumference of the smoke exhausting pipe. Since the third
ceramic part 115 comprises one long part, the number of parts
constituting the present invention can be small. Further,
since it uses a ceramic material, the smoke exhausting pipe
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
67
can be kept at high temperatures, and t;he occurrence of
dioxin contained in an exhaust gas can be further suppressed.
Although the third ceramic parts 115 are joined together so
as to form a circle in accordance with the circular shape of
the smoke exhausting pipe, the shape of the joined parts 115
may be changed to such a shape as a recaangle according to
the shape of the smoke exhausting pipe.
Fig. 115 shows an external wal.7_ material 16 of the
assembling incinerator used in the pre~~ent invention. In the
middle of Fig. 12, a plan view 16a of the L-shaped external
wall material 16 is shown. Further, a front view 16d is
shown below the plan view 16a, a left side view 16c and a
right side view 16e are shown on the left and right of the
plan view, and a rear view 16b is shown. above the plan view
16a.
As shown in the plan view 16a of Fig. 115, the
external wall material 16 comprises, from the left, a fire-
resistant 16f which is disposed where refuses to be burned
are burned, a heat insulating materia1~16g which is connected

68
Y-shaped fitting 46, i.e., the branched top portion of the
caster-fixing Y-shaped fitting 44 and t:he top portions of the
linear caster-fixing Y-shaped fittings 46, into the fire-
resistant material 16f and the heat in:>ulating material 16g.
As shown in the front view 15d and the right side
view 16e, the fire-resistant material 7_6f and the heat
insulating material 16g are joined to t:he external wall 16h
by causing Y-shaped fittings 16i to penetrate a caster (fire-
resistant cement) 16j and inserting and tightening bolts 16k
inside the Y-shaped fittings 16i.
Further, on the surface of the external wall 16h, a
plurality of circular packing grooves 7_61 in which pins for
joining the external walls 16h can be inserted are formed.
Therefore, when the external walls 16h are joined together,
tapered pins 34 are inserted into the circular packing
grooves 161 of one external wall 16h halfway and the packing
grooves 161 of the other external wall 16h halfway, whereby
the external walls 16h can be joined together easily.
Further, a seal packing 35 for external_ walls can be formed
along the contact face between the external walls h, i.e.,
the circumference of the front view 16d of the external wall
material 16.
Thus, as shown in Fig. 115, a <:ombination of the
external wall materials 16 which constitute the assembling
incinerator of the present invention can be freely changed.
The assembling incinerator comprises the external wall
material 16 which comprises the external wall 16h, the heat
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
69
insulating material 16g and the fire-resistant material 16f,
the caster (fire-resistant cement) 16j which comprises the
heat insulating material 16g and the fire-resistant material
16f which constitute the external wall :material 16 and
connects to the external wall 16, the caster-16j-fixing bolts
16k which penetrate from the caster 16j to the external wall
16h and fix the fittings, the tapered pins 34 shown in Fig.
28 which join the external wall materials 16 to each other,
and the seal packing 35 for external walls shown in Fig. 29
which fills a gap between the external walls 16 when the
external walls 16 are joined together.
The external wall materials 16 are block-shaped
members which constitute the external walls 16h of the
cyclone 6, smoke path section 3 and incineration section 4 of
the assembling incinerator. A material of the external wall
material 16 is a member which can endurE= high temperatures
ranging from 500 to 2,000°C. As the member, a variety of
materials including metal, reinforced incombustible plastic,
gypsum, heat-resistant cement and fire-resistant cement can
be used.
The external wall material 16 shown in Fig. 115 and
the external wall materials 2, 2a, 4c, 9, 13d, 13e, 14a, 15,
15a, 15d, 15e, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 32,

The external wall 16h shown in Fig. 115 is a member
which constitutes the outer portion, i.e., external wall
surface of the assembling incinerator of the present
invention. The external wall 16h uses the same materials as
those presented in the preceding paragraph (0211].
The caster (fire-resistant cement) 16j which
constitutes the surface of the external wall 16h is a member
sprayed with fire-resistant cement. As shown in the upper
portion of the right side view 16e, the caster (fire-
resistant cement) 16j has holes so as t:o surround the bolts
16k. The external walls 16h can be as:>embled by tightening
the bolts 16k from the outside of the external walls 16h of
the assembling incinerator.
The heat insulating material lE~g which is penetrated
by the bolts 16k via the caster (16j) Lzses the same material
as that of the external wall 16h. Further, the heat
insulating material 16g is penetrated by the caster-fixing Y-
shaped fittings 16i from the left side face of the external
wall 16h to the right side face of the fire-resistant
material 16f. The front ends of the caster-fixing Y-shaped
fittings 16i which penetrate the heat insulating material 16g
are fixed on the right side of the fire-resistant material
16f .
Thus, the external wall 16h which constitutes the
external wall material 16, the heat insulating material 16g
and the fire-resistant material 16f can be fixed in the order
presented by inserting the bolts 16k into the caster-fixing
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
71
Y-shaped fittings 16i from the caster (fire-resistant cement)
16j side and tightening the bolts 16k inside the fittings 16i.
The tapered pins 34 shown in F_Lg. 215 are pins 34
which join the external wall materials 16 to each other. The
pins 34 are tapered toward the tips so as to be inserted into
the external wall 16h easily. However, when the sizes of the
packing grooves 161 are the same, the shape of the pins 34
may be freely changed to such a shape as a cylinder.
The seal packing 35 for external walls shown in Fig.
115 is a packing used when the external wall materials 16
which constitute the present invention are joined together
and comprises a body 35a and a concave portion 35b and a
convex portion 35c which are joining portions formed on the
ends of the body 35a. Further, the shape of the body 35a is
not limited to a cross shape and can be freely changed to
such a shape as a rectangle, an L shape or a square according
to the shape of the external wall 16.

external wall materials. When the CADS of the external wall
materials which are also standard parts are registered and
the external wall materials are assembled only on the
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
72
drawings and only special parts are newly designed and
produced, design and production costs are reduced as a whole,
and an assembling incinerator of high quality can be
delivered in a short time at low cost.
Secondly, parts such as the external wall materials
used in the assembling incinerator of t:he present invention
can be combined and expanded in small, medium and large sizes.
For example, parts A, B, C and D can be' manufactured in
different factories or in the same factory. The parts
constituting the assembling incinerator can be delivered with
high quality, at low cost and in a sho~~t time. Further,
since the assembling incinerator is disassembled into
individual parts such as the external wall materials upon
incineration, the technology~af the assembling incinerator
hardly leaks, which is advantageous from the viewpoint of
confidentiality.
Thirdly, parts such as the external wall materials
used in the assembling incinerator of the present invention
can be disassembled into such small sizes that humans can
carry to any places such as a remote island, a mountainous
region, a high mountain, a deep forest, a fierce area, a
remote country district, a bill without an elevator, the roof
of a building, a basement, a narrow path and the like.
Further, upon assembly of the assembling incinerator, there
is no need to use a large-size crane. In addition, a large-
size incinerator can be built on site by directly assembling
the parts around a mountain of refuses at a refuse dump.

Fourthly, since the assembling incinerator of the
present invention adopts semi dry distillation and negative
pressure combustion, harmful substances such as dioxin
contained in ashes and an exhaust gas resulting from
ombustion of refuses to be burned can be rendered harmless.
Fifthly, the surfaces of the external walls of the
assembling incinerator of the present invention can be
finished to have a good appearance by burning into a thin
board, ceramic or enamel or by freely drawing pictures or
patterns by use of incombustible plastic. Further, due to
the reduced sizes of the parts to be assembled and
disassembled of the assembling incinerator, it has been
rendered possible to draw letters and pictures on the
surfaces of the eternal wall materials by use of a computer.
Sixthly, the assembling incinerator of the present
invention has a structure designed to be easily recycled.
Therefore, when the parts are classified into different
materials and assembled and produced, replacement of parts at
the time of maintenance and .classification and separation of
parts after disassembly are facilitated, and the parts can be
recycled.
Seventhly, the assembling incinerator of the present
invention can achieve a reduction in manufacturing period.
By manufacturing the parts of the incinerator for each type,-
the incinerator can be delivered in a shorter time. Further,
since the manufacture of the parts can be ordered to a number
of manufactures and companies, the assembling incinerator can
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
74
be manufactured more quickly. Thus, when only newly designed
parts are manufactured while standard parts are stocked with
shipment thereof controlled, a further reduction in delivery
time becomes possible.
Eighthly, the assembling incinerator of the present
invention can achieve a reduction in new design. By
designing the parts of the incinerator for each type, a
reduction in design can be achieved. In terms of volume
ratio, in the case of an automobile, 20o of the parts of the
automobile are standard parts, and 80a of the parts of the
automobile are newly designed parts, hZowever, since an
incinerator, a dryer, a carbonizes, biological treatment
equipment, fusing equipment and the like are box-shaped
devices, standard parts constitute at least 800 of parts
thereof, and newly designed parts constitute up to 20~ of the
parts thereof. Thus, development of the newly designed parts
can be achieved in a short time, a reduction in design time
can be achieved.
Ninthly, devices used in the assembling incinerator
of the present invention can be manufactured at low cost. At
least 800 of the parts of box-shaped devices such as an
incinerator, a dryer, a carbonizes, biological treatment
equipment and fusing equipment are standard parts, the same
parts are jigged, so that high-quality parts can be
manufactured in larger quantity at Lower cost. Since special
parts constitute up to 200 of all parts,, the devices can be
manufactured without an increase in costs as a whole.
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
Tenth, the assembling incinerator of the present
invention is incomparable to products of competitors in terms
of price and quality. Since 80% of parts can be produced as
standard parts and the manufacture of the parts can be
ordered to a manufacturer who can produce high-quality parts
at the lowest cost in the world, the assembling incinerator
of the present invention can beat products of competitors.
Further, newly designed parts which constitute 200 of all
parts are manufactured in countries whs~re the assembling
incinerator is sold or neighbor countries and supplied.
Further, the development and design of the newly designed
parts are limited to and implemented in countries and areas
where high-quality manpower is availab_Le.
Eleventh, the assembling incinE~rator of the present
invention can be set up at any place. Since the parts of the
incinerator can be reduced to such a light weight and a size
that humans can carry, the assembling incinerator can be set
up at any place. The assembling incinerator can be set up at
any place such as a mountain or valley where the parts of the
incinerator cannot be carried even by a helicopter, the roof
of a building, a basement, a wrecked. place after a disaster,
a narrow path in the back of a factory, the South Pole or a
remote island as long as humans can move in and out.
Twelfth, the size of the assembling incinerator of
the present invention can be freely changed at any time.
When business is expanded or contracted a few years after an
incinerator, a dryer, a carbonizer, biological treatment
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
76
equipment, fusing equipment and the like are installed,
additional devices are merely provided heretofore. However,
in the case of the assembling system of the present invention,
the length, width and height of the incinerator can be easily
and freely decreased or increased at any time by adding
additional parts without disassembling the incinerator.
Thirteenth, the maintenance of the assembling
incinerator of the present invention is easy. The assembling
system comprises small parts. Thus, the incinerator can be
restored by replacing only degraded or broken parts. Further,
since it adopts a part replacement system, repairs thereof
can be complied in a manual, so that even those who are not
skilled workers can repair the incinerator easily. Meanwhile,
since a conventional incinerator has been produced as an
integral incinerator, the whole system must be repaired,
reconstructed or replaced when a part of the system is
degraded. Accordingly, the system has a short useful life,
is difficult to repair and can be repaired only by skilled
workers and is costly to maintain.
Fourteenth, the assembling incinerator of the
present invention can be assembled by anybody. The assembly
of the assembling system does not require skilled workers,
and an incinerator, a dryer, a carbonizer, biological
treatment equipment, fusing equipment and the like can be
assembled easily by giving brief instructions and a manual to
those who attempt to assemble the incinerator. Anybody which
can assemble the system can fabricate the system by
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
77
purchasing parts thereof. Customers can choose, purchase and
assemble any parts listed in a catalog so as to fabricate an
incinerator, a dryer, a carbonizer, biological treatment
equipment, fusing equipment and the like. Samples are listed
in the catalogs of manufactures, and customers call
manufactures to know samples. Thus, individuals,
manufactures and distributors can freely assemble,
reconstruct and repair the assembling incinerator.
Fifteenth, manufactures of the assembling
incinerator of the present invention require neither
factories nor design companies.
At least 800 of the parts of the incinerator, dryer,
carbonizer, biological treatment equipm.erxt, fusing equipment
and the like comprise standard parts and newly designed parts
constitute up to 20~ of all parts. Although manufactures
have heretofore designed and manufactured the parts by
themselves, they can sell the parts to users without
designing and manufacturing the parts by themselves if they
can purchase the standard parts from parts of the assembling
system listed in a catalog and purchase the newly designed
parts by placing orders of the newly designed parts to design
companies by use of image drawings. Since the manufactures
do not perform welding and machining themselves and the
design companies supply all parts, the manufactures can focus
on training of assemblers and sales peraons without
establishment of facilities, so that they can achieve saving
of labor costs and differentiation from rival manufacturers.

Further, the manufactures can do busin~ass without having
factories and design companies. In addition, individuals and
distributors can also do business without having factories
and design companies.
Sixteenth, orders of the assembling incinerator of
the present invention can be placed by use of the Internet or
information devices. Users access individual sellers,
distributors and manufactures by use of_ the Internet or
information devices. Design companies upload information of
parts, how to assemble the incinerator, dryer, carbonizer,
biological treatment equipment, fusing equipment and the like,
and assembled samples to the Internet or information
terminals to which individual sellers, distributors and
manufactures can access so as to freely view the data.
Further, when a user, individual seller, distributor or
manufacture sends brief image drawings of newly designed
parts to a design company, the design company newly designs,
manufactures and supplies the parts. In addition, when new
parts are listed in catalogs, users, individual sellers,
distributors and manufactures can acquire data of the new
parts, and needs are constantly in progress. In this regard
as well, the assembling incinerator of the present invention
is incomparable to products of other manufactures.
Seventeenth; the assembling incinerator of the
present invention can have cross-shaped air grooves formed on
the surfaces of fire-resistant materials which constitute
external wall materials and can have hollow pipes so that hot
CA 02449376 2003-12-09
79
water passes through heat insulating materials adjacent to
the fire-resistant materials. Thereby, the internal
temperature of the incineration section of the assembling
incinerator can be stabilized, and a temperature for removing
dioxin can be retained.
Eighteenth, fire grates which c:anstitute the
incineration section of the assembling incinerator of the
present invention each have Z to 4 nearly horseshoe-shaped
projections so that the fire grate can joint to each other.
Hence, the fire grates can also be disassembled and carried.
Nineteenth, design drawings such as 2D and 3D CADS
of the assembling incinerator of the present invention are
stored in the memory of a computer in place of the CADs of
external wall materials mentioned in the first effect and can
be used as appropriate. Further, design time of the entire
assembling incinerator can be shortened, and the assembling
incinerator and parts can be produced at low production costs.
