Abstract
A push gate for a scrap metal furnace with a volatizing chamber and a doorway into that chamber. The push gate includes a door plate to seal against the doorway, a scoop sized to fit in the volatizing chamber, and a plunger attached to the scoop that extends through the door plate. The push gate is movable. When the push gate is positioned such that the door plate seals against the doorway, the plunger can controllably move the scoop in and out of the chamber to push scrap metal to predetermined positions in the chamber for predetermined periods of time.
