An annular prism capable of causing light (or other radiation) to either converge or diverge is defined by an annulus of material which is transparent to the light (or other radiation). The annulus tapers radially towards either its outer periphery or its central aperture. If the annulus tapers towards its outer periphery, light converges. If the annulus tapers towards its central aperture, light diverges. The degree of tapering determines the degree of convergence or divergence. A cross section of the annulus formed by a plane containing a principal axis of the annulus viewed on only one side of the principal axis may have a triangular shape. In some embodiments, a segment of the annulus may be missing, resulting in a penannular prism which causes light (or other radiation) to converge or diverge about the principal axis of the incomplete annulus for some angular measure less than 360 degrees.

The invention relates to a distribution chute (100) for a charging device of the rotary pivotal type, e.g. for a shaft furnace. The chute has an upstream mounting head (114) and a chute body (112) having an elongated downstream chute portion (116) with a longitudinal axis (L). It further includes at least two lateral suspensions (130) at the mounting head for mounting the chute to at least two corresponding support flanges of the charging device, the support flanges (140) being pivotable about the pivoting axis (B) in a raising sense (R) for raising the outlet (120) to a radially outer-most charging position and in an opposite lowering sense for lowering the outlet to a radially innermost charging position with respect to the rotational axis. The suspensions (130) define a first and a second tilt points, which define, in turn, a tilt axis (T), about which the weight of the chute exerts torque onto support flanges of the charging device when the chute is mounted. The suspensions are configured in such a way that the ratio of the distance between the tilt axis and the pivoting axis to the distance between the first and second tilt points (which corresponds at least approximatively to the distance between the suspensions) amounts to 0.25 at most. According to the invention, the suspensions (130, 230, 330) are arranged so that an acute angle (a) from the longitudinal axis (L) to a virtual plane (P) through the tilt axis (T) and the center of gravity (G) of the chute has an angular measure in the raising sense (R) that has a small positive or a negligibly negative value.
