Appeal No. 2000-1111 Application 08/881,969 a pair of generally radially opposed, laterally extending outer flanges, the outer side wall presenting a pair of axially opposed, circumferentially extending marginal edges; an inner saddle-shaped shell element including a porous inner semi-cylindrical side wall and a pair of radially opposed, laterally extending inner flanges, the inner side wall presenting a pair of axially opposed, circumferentially extending marginal edges; a means for securing the outer and inner flanges together; a means for closing off the interior space between the marginal edges of the outer and inner shell elements; the outer and inner side walls being spaced from one another to define an interior space; and a particulate catalyst component retained in the interior space between the side walls. 15. A saddle packing structure comprising: an outer saddle-shaped shell element including a porous, semi-cylindrical screen defining an outer side wall; an inner saddle-shaped shell element connected to the outer shell element and including a porous, semi-cylindrical screen defining an inner side wall that is spaced from the outer side wall to define an interior space; a pair of axially opposed end walls for closing off the interior space between the side walls of the outer and inner shell elements; and a particulate catalyst component retained in the interior space between the side walls of the outer and inner shell elements. 2Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
