<p>PURPOSE:To perform stabilized energizing without causing seizing, etc., by providing a shoe made of graphite to be elastically pressed on the surface of a bar-like body such as an electrode and a billet and used for energizing the body, etc., and bringing the shoe into sliding contact with the body. CONSTITUTION:The bar-like body energizing device is formed by the shoe 2 made of graphite, a cooler 3 for cooling the shoe 2, a presser 4, etc. The shoe 2 is brought into contact with the periphery of the bar-like body 1 such as an electrode and a billet piercing through the wall of a vacuum furnace, and the body 1 is energized. In addition, the shoe 2 is elastically pressed on the periphery of the body 1 by the presser 4.</p> |
