Abstract

A coke side gantry car for a battery of coke ovens supports an extractor and a cleaner for the door, a door frame cleaner, a coke guide grating and a hood for collecting emissions during coke pushing operations. At least one of a plurality of rails to support the gantry car is disposed on the coke platform and another of the rails is disposed outwardly therefrom above and generally parallel with tracks for a hot coke car. A coke guide grating in a casing with continuous side walls moves axially of the oven chamber between the chamber opening and an outward position where a substantial part of the weight is carried by the outer track for the gantry car. The casing extends around the grating and covers the side walls thereof. The casing cooperates with members to form a seal with the coke oven chamber and the smoke hood.
