It is not very helpful in terms of temperature increase, and can only increase the heating speed in the low temperature section. However, many materials are currently limited by insufficient heating temperature, especially the inability to achieve continuous and stable heating within the temperature range of 3600-4000℃, and the purity of the sintered materials is not high, making it difficult to improve the quality.

The other end of the vacuum regulating pipeline 31 is connected to the vacuum pump 32. A vacuum display detection instrument 33 is also provided on the vacuum regulating pipeline 31.

[0032] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when the top heating component 5 uses an electron beam emitting device, it uses electrons moving at high speed under the action of an electric field to bombard the surface of an object to heat it, wherein the electrons emitted by the generator 52 are accelerated to a very high speed under the action of an accelerating electric field, and are focused by an electromagnetic lens so that the electron beam is directed toward the heated object in a certain direction, while the heating temperature of a single electron beam is limited, and the object is heated by causing the movement of phonons of the heated object to increase its temperature through the movement of high-energy electrons; at the same time, the heater 43 converts electrical energy into thermal energy, and heats the object mainly through heat conduction and heat radiation, and heating by the heater 43 alone cannot make the temperature of the heated object exceed that of the heater 43 itself, while the mode of phonon movement of the object induced by the electrons of the electron beam may not be affected by the heating mode of the heater phonons on the heated object, and the superposition of the two heating energies can be achieved, thereby achieving a superposition increase in the temperature of the heated object;

[0033] The heating principle of the top heating component 5 when using an ion beam emission device is to generate a large amount of Ar gas plasma through inductive coupling technology or a high-voltage and high-frequency generator, and then use the high-speed movement of the plasma to bombard the surface of the object, transfer energy to the object, and cause continuous high-speed thermal motion between the molecules and atoms inside the object, thereby increasing the temperature of the object. Since the plasma state Ar may damage the material during the process, it is necessary to control the corresponding parameters and energy, and at the same time cooperate with the physical high-temperature heating device that heats the bottom of the object to achieve the superposition of the two energies.

[0034] The top heating component 5 uses the laser heating principle. A laser generator generates high-energy laser (single photon 24eV). The laser is irradiated on the surface of the heated object. The material absorbs the photon energy to increase the temperature. The more it absorbs, the higher the energy. This makes up for the temperature limit of energy transfer during simple resistance heating. As the heating time increases, the temperature continues to rise to achieve ultra-high temperature superposition.

[0035] When the utility model is in use, the object to be sintered is placed in the heating groove 41, and then the top outer wall 11 and the bottom outer wall 12 are connected, the vacuum pump 32 is turned on, the inside of the sintering furnace body 1 is evacuated, and then the bottom heating component 4 and the top heating component 5 are turned on at the same time to heat the object, and the infrared optical thermometer 6 is used for detection, the heating temperature of the top heating component 5 is adjusted according to the displayed temperature, and the circulating water cooling component 2 is used to circulate and cool the non-heating parts, and finally the object is heated to the required temperature. The utility model adopts two physical heating principles to heat the object, effectively realizes the superposition of temperature, breaks through the limit of the heating temperature of the prior art, and the heating temperature can stably reach above 3600°C, thereby improving the purity and crystallinity of the heated object. In addition, the overall equipment design of the utility model is reasonable, and the manufacturing technology of each component is mature and easy to implement.

Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
