DISPOSIZIONE PREVISTA SU FORNI DI COKIFICAZIONE PER OPERAZIONI DI CHIUSURA DEL DISPOSITIVO DI CHIUSURA DEL BARILETTO E DI APERTURA DEL COPERCHIO DELLA COLONNA MONTANTE

A gas conduit control system for a coking oven provides for sequential operation of a conduit cover and a seal on a transition element which communicates between the conduit and a gas collection main conduit. The system includes two pivotally connected shafts and two bell crank levers wherein the cover element is connected to one bell crank lever and the seal is connected to the other bell crank lever. One bell crank lever is slotted to permit linear movement of a first shaft without accompanying movement of the associated bell crank lever. The other bell crank lever is pinned to a lengthwise slot in a second shaft to permit lengthwise movement of the second shaft without accompanying movement of that bell crank lever. A hydraulic piston is an element of the first shaft which operates the system by extension and retraction.
