<p>Provided is an electrode support structure in which local heating can be prevented from occurring in a workpiece during the electric heating. The electrode support structure is usable for applying a load to the electrodes (4, 5) used for the electric heating of a metal plate, and comprises at least two members, i.e., a first member (1) to which the electrodes (4, 5) are fixed and a second member (2) which receives the load from the first member or connects the first member to a load means (9). The support structure in which the two members are joined to each other through an elastic member (3) can uniformly apply the load to the electrodes for electric heating so that the electrodes can uniformly contact with the workpiece, whereby the workpiece can be uniformly heated.</p> |
