Then the arm plate 111 is driven by the swing cylinder 116 to swing horizontally in the counterclockwise direction, thereby making the sealing door 10 in the open state, preparing for the insertion of the torch body.
[0047] Step 3: Ventilate the rodless cylinder 3 to drive the torch body 5 to move to the right, and pass through the insulating sealing plate 7 and the water cooling device 8 in sequence, and then slowly insert it into the furnace body through the furnace body flange 9; when the right side of the torch bracket 6 is pressed against the insulating sealing plate 7, sealing is achieved.
[0048] Step 4: When an emergency occurs, the instrument power supply that controls the cylinder is still powered, and compressed air still exists in the compressed air system. The pneumatic solenoid valve changes the direction of the cylinder air circuit, and the rodless cylinder 3 drives the torch body 5 to move to the left and pull it out to the appropriate position. Then the swing cylinder 116 drives the arm plate 111 to swing horizontally in the clockwise direction, thereby closing the sealing door 10.
