Abstract
A system for removing and replacing fire-tubes. The system can include a powered system, a fire-tube puller coupled to said powered system. The fire-tube puller has a puller back which is coupled to a plug rest. A plug rest is approximately perpendicular to the puller back, and the fire-tube will rest upon the plug rest when the fire-tube is being removed or installed. The system can also include a stack adjuster which is coupled to the plug rest. The stack adjuster can couple to a stack so as to reposition the stack.
Claims20
A fire-tube removal and installation system comprising:
- an arm with a distal end adapted to move in a three dimensional direction, a puller back having a distal side and a proximal side, the proximal side being connected to the distal end of the arm by double hinges;
- at least one plug rest, wherein the at least one plug rest is parallel to another plug rest, and have a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end being connected to the distal side of the puller back, the at least one plug rest further being adapted for insertion into a fire-tube;
- a stack adjuster configured to be connected to the distal end of the plug rest and adapted to decouple a removable stack from the fire-tube extending from a fire-tube exhaust of the fire-tube and a powered system adapted to move the arm in a three dimensional direction.
