The induction coil 1 is used for generating an alternating magnetic field, so that a crucible member (not shown) located within the surrounding area of the induction coil 1 generates eddy current, and the crucible member generates heat.
The induction coil adjusting device comprises sliding blocks 4, guide rods 2 and folding expansion joints 3, wherein the sliding blocks 4 are respectively fixed on a plurality of layers of ring bodies and are arranged in a lower-upper mode, and the guide rods 2 bear the sliding blocks 4 to move up and down. A plurality of sliding blocks 4 are equidistantly arranged on the guide rod 2. The folding telescopic joint 3 comprises a plurality of connecting rods with hinged centers and crossed mutually, endpoints of the upper connecting rod and the lower connecting rod are hinged mutually, and a hinge shaft of a central hinge point of each of the crossed connecting rods is simultaneously fixed on the sliding blocks 4, so that the distance between every two adjacent sliding blocks 4 is always the same. All the sliders 4 are raised or lowered simultaneously and the distance between every two adjacent sliders is always the same. The top of the folding telescopic joint 3 is fixed with the top of the induction coil 1, such as a fixed block 9 at the uppermost layer in fig. 1, the fixed block 9 is sleeved on the uppermost layer of the induction coil 1 and the side surface of the fixed block 9 is connected with the top of the folding telescopic joint 3. The fixed block 9 is fixed, namely the telescopic joint 3 and the induction coil 1 are in a hanging installation mode. The folding telescopic joint 3 can make the screw pitch of the induction coil 1 become larger by making the several sliding blocks 4 move downwards simultaneously by moving the bottom downwards.
In the present embodiment, 4 guide rods 2 are used to be located outside the induction coil, respectively. The 4 guide rods 2 are equidistantly and parallelly arranged on the outer side of the induction coil 1 along the circumference so that each layer of ring body of the induction coil 1 can not incline when ascending or descending to be controlled more accurately.

When the bottom of the folding telescopic joint 3 moves downwards, the screw pitch of the induction coil 1 becomes larger; when the bottom of the telescopic joint 3 moves upward, the pitch of the induction coil 1 becomes smaller. The lead screws 11 are arranged outside the induction coil at equal intervals and in parallel along the circumference, and each lead screw 11 corresponds to one folding expansion joint 3.
The driving device also comprises a rotating wheel 12 and a driving motor 10 which respectively drive each screw rod 11 to rotate.
