One end of the evaporation tube 12 passes through the cover body 132 and is connected to the heating chamber, and the other end is connected to the condensation device 30. The continuous feeding device 20 includes a feeding chamber 21, a feeding pipe 22 and a first air inlet pipe 23. One end of the feeding pipe 22 is connected to the feeding chamber 21 and the other end passes through the cover body 132 and is connected to the heating chamber.

[0035] When the above-mentioned nanopowder production equipment is working, the raw material is added to the crucible body 131 of the crucible 13, the induction coil 14 is energized and generates electromagnetic induction to heat the crucible body 131 or the metal raw material in the crucible body 131. When the internal temperature of the crucible body 131 or the temperature of the metal raw material reaches a predetermined temperature value, the raw material begins to evaporate into a gaseous state. At this time, an inert gas is continuously introduced into the first air inlet pipe 23, and the inert gas enters the heating chamber of the crucible body 131 through the feed pipe 22, bringing the vapor into the evaporation tube 12, and the vapor enters the condensation device 30 through the evaporation tube 12, and is rapidly cooled in the condensation device 30 to form nanopowder.

[0060] Specifically, please combine Figure 1 As shown, the nano powder preparation device further includes a cyclone separation device 60, which is connected between the condensation device 30 and the collection device 50. The nano powder cooled by the condensation device 30 enters the cyclone separation device 60, and the cyclone separation device 60 can separate the nano powder with a larger particle size, while the nano powder with a smaller particle size is collected by the collection device 50, which effectively narrows the particle size distribution range of the nano powder.

[0061] Specifically, please combine Fig.10 As shown, the cyclone separator includes a separation chamber 61 and a second collection chamber 62. A rotating airflow is formed inside the separation chamber 61, and the nanopowder flows with the rotating airflow.

[0062] Specifically, please combine Fig.10 As shown, the second collecting chamber 62 is provided with a sixth air inlet pipe 621, which is connected to an external air source. The external air source introduces inert gas or dry air into the second collecting chamber 62 through the sixth air inlet pipe 621 to perform protective collection or passivation treatment on the nanopowder in the second collecting chamber 62.

[0063] Specifically, please combine Fig.10 As shown, a third vacuum monitor 622 is provided on the second collecting chamber 62 , and the third vacuum monitor 622 is used to monitor the vacuum degree of the second collecting chamber 62 in real time.

[0064] In this embodiment, please combine Figure 2 As shown, the evaporation device 10 further includes a tray 15 and a furnace leakage alarm electrically connected to the induction coil 14. The tray 15 is arranged in the first cabin 11 and below the crucible 13. The furnace leakage alarm is arranged on the tray 15. When the crucible 13 is broken, the melt flows from the crucible 13 to the tray 15 and contacts the furnace leakage alarm 16, thereby triggering the furnace leakage alarm 16 to cut off the power supply of the induction coil 14 and sound an alarm, notifying the staff to replace the crucible 13.

[0065] Specifically, the tray 15 has a conical structure, and the furnace leakage alarm 16 is arranged in the middle position of the tray 15. When the crucible 13 breaks, the solution flows from the crucible 13 to the tray 15 and accumulates in the middle position of the tray 15, and contacts with the furnace leakage alarm 16 to trigger the furnace leakage alarm 16 to operate, so that the furnace leakage alarm 16 can sound an alarm more timely.

[0066] Specifically, please combine Figure 1 As shown, the nano powder preparation equipment also includes a vacuum generating device 70. The evaporating device 10, the condensing device 30, the cyclone separating device 60 and the collecting device 50 are all connected to the vacuum generating device 70. The vacuum generating device 70 is used to evacuate the interior of the evaporating device 10, the interior of the condensing device 30, the interior of the cyclone separating device 60 and the interior of the collecting device 50 to maintain the vacuum degree of the evaporating device 10, the vacuum degree of the condensing device 30, the vacuum degree of the cyclone separating device 60 and the vacuum degree of the collecting device 50 to reach the standard value.
