Abstract
A tilting device for tilting crucible furnaces is supported in a stand wherein a yoke mounts the crucible furnace to the stand and is pivotable about a shaft extending transverse to the opening of the crucible furnace. The shaft is supported in movable guide tubes mounted within respective upstanding members of the stand. The movable guide tubes are releasably locked within the upstanding members such that operation of a lifting device causes the crucible and yoke to rotate about the shaft and release of the locking means causes the crucible and yoke to be lifted from the stand with operation of the lifting device and movement of the guide tubes within the upstanding members.
