Oil gun mounting for use in steam generation boilers

Abstract

A mounting for an oil gun in an associated steam generation boiler which includes a stationary union block having first and second output ports for respective fluid streams; a removable block having first and second input ports dimensioned and configured for registration with the first and second output ports; apparatus for mounting the stationary union block which comprises a collar welded to the end of an associated guide pipe and apparatus coupling the collar and the stationary union block and allowing relative pivotal moment between the collar and the stationary union; and apparatus for forcing the removable union block against the stationary union block with the respective ports thereof in registered relationship. In some forms of the invention the apparatus coupling the collar and the stationary union comprises a pin, the pin extending through the stationary union block. The apparatus coupling the collar and the stationary union block may comprise first and second plates that are carried on the pin. In some forms of the invention the first and second plates are disposed in spaced relation and are welded to the collar. The apparatus for forcing the removable union block against the stationary union block may comprise a yoke and the yoke may be carried on the pin. The apparatus for forcing may further include a bolt shaped member and a transversely extending handle.
