An incineration grate includes several levels including first and second grate bars arranged in rows alongside one another and in rows one above another, forming step-shaped combustion surfaces with their upper supporting surfaces. At least once in an area of the upper supporting surfaces, the first grate bars form, over their width, a smaller supporting surface for fuel than that of the second grate bars via a first shoulder disposed inwards in a direction of a longitudinal center plane. In an area of the upper supporting surfaces, the second grate bars have a supporting surface with a larger width in order to form an overlap with the first grate bars via a second shoulder disposed outwards over the width of the first grate bars. The second grate bars have at least one pin configured to be introduced into a pocket in the first grate bars and increase the larger width.

The present application discloses a grate bar for a thrust grate of a furnace. The grate bar comprises an elongated recess at a first side of the grate bar. The elongated recess comprises two parallel sliding surfaces which are oriented in longitudinal direction of the grate bar. An engaging element is provided at a second side of the grate bar, which is opposite to the first side. The engaging element comprises two parallel sliding surfaces which are oriented in longitudinal direction of the grate bar. The elongated recess is shaped such that a corresponding neighbouring engaging element of a neighbouring part is movable within the elongated recess in the longitudinal direction relative to the grate bar. The grate bar further comprises two actuating surfaces at a bottom side of the grate bar for taking up a protrusion of a grate.

A device for treating bulk material with a gas, the device including a grate through which gas can flow from an under-grate space to the upper side and which conveys a layer of bulk material in a conveying direction from a loading end to a discharge end. The grate has a plurality of mutually adjacent rows, each of which includes at least one bar that is elongate in the conveying direction and may be moved alternately back and forth in the conveying direction. Driving is controlled such that the forward stroke of the at least one bar of two adjacent rows takes place at the same time, while the rearward stroke of the at least one bar of two adjacent rows takes place at different times.

A grate block for a combustion grate including a block body having an upper wall which forms a bearing surface and along which the combustible material is to be conveyed and a front wall which has a lower bearing edge, the bearing edge being designed to come into contact with the bearing surface of an adjacent grate block in a feed direction, wherein the upper wall has an air supply opening formed by an air supply channel. The air supply opening is at least partially surrounded by a thickened portion which protrudes from the bearing surface, forms a protective channel extending the air supply channel, and is designed to prevent liquid from flowing into the air supply opening.
