(JP6024704-A)      Fuel cell reformer includes (i) non-permeable vessel constituted by bottom plate, barrel pipe and mirror plate, (ii) plural reforming pipes each having inner pipe for descending stream of reformed gas and outer pipe forming space between inner pipe for ascending stream of reformed gas, (iii) reformed gas outlet header inside vessel, (iv) outlet pipe extension members connected to header as supports and functioning as outlets for inner pipes and (v) at least three gas header supports supporting outlet header and directly descending to and fixed to bottom plate. At least one outlet gas header support includes reformed gas outlet line from reformed gas outlet header.    ADVANTAGE -   Construction of reformer can be simplified.    (JP2667615-B2)      A bottom supported gas fired reformer arrangement, comprises (a) a bottom support for the reformer, (b) a shell bottom plate, (c) a cylindrical shell housing, (d) a shell head (b, c and d being connected to form an impervious shell), (e) a gas firing means forming combustion prods. supported from the impervious shell and firing into an upper end portion of the impervious shell, (f) a number of bayonet type reactors, each with a central tube for the downflow of reformer gas and an outer casing forming an annulus for the upflow of reformer gas, the reactors annularly arranged within the impervious shell, (g) a reformer gas outlet header located within the shell below and passing beneath all reactors, (h) an outlet tube extension of each of the central tubes directly connected to the outlet header as a support member for the reactors, and the impervious shell providing a lower combustion gas outlet plenum internal of the impervious shell and beneath the reactors, (i) at least three outlet header support members supporting the outlet header and passing directly downwardly to the shell bottom plate, and secured to the bottom plate, and (j) at least one outlet header support member comprising a reformer gas outlet line carrying reformer gas from the outlet header.    USE -   Bottom support for high temp. gas reformers.
