  • Clearance retaining system for a high frequency heating coil
    Patent number: 6064046
    Abstract: An automatic plate bending system using high frequency induction heating has many universal poles for bearing a steel plate, a member to be heated, by supporting it from below, the height positions of front end portions of the universal poles themselves being adjustable, and automatically moves a high frequency heating coil of a high frequency heating head above the steel plate, which is placed on the universal poles, along predetermined heating lines while retaining a constant clearance between the high frequency heating coil and the surface of the steel plate, whereby the steel plate is heated and automatically bent into a desired shape.
    Type: Grant
