What is a "coal pusher"?
A coal pusher is a mechanical device used to move or push coal into a furnace or boiler. It is commonly found in power plants, steam engines, and some older trains where coal is used as fuel. The coal pusher helps ensure that the coal is evenly distributed and supplied to the furnace or boiler, maintaining the proper fuel flow for heating or generating steam. It is usually powered by motors or steam pressure, and it plays a key role in keeping the energy generation process running smoothly by ensuring a constant supply of coal.
Example
The coal pusher automatically feeds coal into the furnace, keeping the boiler running smoothly.
A well-maintained coal pusher ensures continuous heat production in industrial settings.
Operators monitor the coal pusher to prevent fuel shortages and maintain efficiency.
