Introduction

Connor Berry Shelton is an inventor associated with Jacksonville, Alabama, and Integrated Global Services, Inc. His patent work addresses the cleaning of deposits inside industrial furnaces, where effective removal can improve furnace operation and reduce the equipment needed for cleaning.

Latest Patents

Shelton is credited with 1 patent: “System, Method, and Apparatus for Improved Cleaning of Industrial Furnaces.” The invention describes an air-cannon fan-jet nozzle designed to improve the cleaning of deposits in industrial furnaces.

The nozzle has a circular inlet with an inner diameter of either four or six inches. Its top and bottom walls flatten and converge toward the outlet, with convex surfaces extending toward the nozzle throat. The lateral walls also converge toward the outlet and curve slightly outward from the nozzle interior. An arcuate indentation may be included near the centerline of the lateral walls at the outlet.

The design aims to improve the cleaning area and penetration depth. According to the patent description, these performance gains may allow an industrial furnace to be cleaned with half as many air cannons while improving cleaning across both width and depth.
