Workpiece-engaging element for furnaces

摘要

A furnace for the heat treating of workpieces includes an elongated internally-cooled supporting member which supports workpieces which are to be advanced through the furnace and a plurality of workpiece-engaging elements, each having a lower portion mounted on the supporting member and an upper portion which is larger than the lower portion and which has an upwardly-directed planar surface which is adapted to support the workpieces from below.
