      No they are just the straight bar type
      The vane type only have a single upright that is shaped to swirl the incoming gases in either a clockwise or an anti-clockwise direction.
      I am frantically trying to get someone to digitally photograph my ones so I can post pictures on here. All my photography is still done in 35mm and that takes time to develop which in this case we don't have.
      Please bear with me.
