1. A system for facilitating welding along an opening defined in a first plate of an enclosed structure, the enclosed structure further having a second plate spaced apart from the first plate, the system comprising:
a support device adapted to be inserted between the opening of the first plate and supported on the second plate, the support device comprising:
a first support member having a first end and a second end, the first support member defining a channel extending from the first end along a first direction;a second support member adjustably coupled to the first support member to adjust a length between a first end of the first support member and an end of the second support member distal to the first support member;a magnet member attached to the end of the second support member distal to the first support member, the magnet member adapted to detachably couple the second support member to the second plate of the enclosed structure;a pusher member comprising a pushing portion and an elongate portion extending from the pushing portion, wherein the elongate portion adapted to at least partly received within the channel, and wherein the elongate portion comprises a plurality of teeth;a housing coupled to the first support member proximal to the first end thereof;a pin member at least partly received within the housing, the pin member adapted to selectively engage with one tooth of the plurality of teeth of the elongate portion to allow unidirectional incremental movement of the pusher member along a second direction opposite to the first direction, wherein the pin member is disposed substantially perpendicular with respect to the elongate portion of the pusher member;a spring member received within the housing, the spring member configured to bias the pin member into engagement with one tooth of the plurality of teeth of the elongate portion; anda cord member coupled to the pusher member, the cord member adapted to move the pusher member along the second direction; and a backing member adapted to close the opening from within the enclosure, wherein the backing member is inserted through the opening and supported on the pushing portion of the pusher member, and wherein the cord member is pulled to move the pusher member along the second direction to bias the backing member into contact with the first plate to close the opening from inside within the enclosure. |
