ABSTRACT:
An apparatus 12 is specially adapted to conserve time, energy, labor and enhance safety when loading a column 10 of cylindrical carbon electrodes or carbon bodies of uniform cross section in end-abutting relationship into a lengthwise graphitization furnace 20.
After aligning a column of electrodes 10 on a stock aligning conveyor, a rigid truss 12 is fitted with chain slings 16, actuator mechanisms 14 and positioning jigs 59 holding the column 10 in precise axial alignment. Support or gooseneck structure 54 rests on the furnace structure and may be adjusted to center the column 10 vertically by shims 64 with respect to the head electrodes 22 of the furnace.
