It can detect the melting point and melting rate of various metals, inorganic compounds or mixtures from solid to liquid during heating, and has the ability to test the melting point and melting rate of samples. Shielding slag is an indispensable auxiliary material for modern continuous casting process. In the continuous casting process, the melting characteristics of shielding slag directly affect the quality of the ingot. Therefore, the development of a tester that can quickly and accurately measure the melting point and melting rate of shielding slag has extremely important guiding significance for actual industrial production.

An operation panel for operating the measuring instrument is installed on the front surface of the operation platform, and a plurality of operation buttons are provided on the operation panel.
[0016] When using this high temperature physical property tester:
[0017] 1. Setting of sample position movement parameters of sample delivery device: 1. Set the distance from the origin sample position to the layout position in the PLC control module, and set the distance from the layout position to the sample measurement position. 2. Set the starting pulse frequency of the stepper motor to 0 through the PLC control module, and set the acceleration and deceleration rates of the stepper motor to every 4 milliseconds / 1600 Hz (the values can be set and modified as needed).
[0018] 2. Sample (fine adjustment of the position of the sample tube): First, the operator controls the operation button, and then moves the sample tube to the position of the insulation sleeve by moving the H-shaped moving block of the sample feeding device. The operator uses tweezers to clamp the sample from the sample placement table and place it in the center of the sample plate; after the sample enters the furnace, the front and back and up and down positions of the sample tube are finely adjusted by the sample fine-tuning slide, so that the sample image can be observed and fully displayed through the camera; at this time, if the sample is tilted front and back, the nut of the sample fine-tuning slide can be used to make the sample in a vertical state to ensure that the sample is in an upright state. When the camera at the left end of the furnace observes that the sample at the right end is tilted to the left lower and the right higher, the operator rotates the knob counterclockwise at this time, and the knob drives the sample to rotate during the rotation. The reducer shaft rotates, and during the rotation of the reducer shaft, the planetary gear reducer is driven to rotate. The central gear of the planetary gear reducer drives the circumferential gear to rotate, and at the same time drives the outer gear ring of the planetary gear reducer to rotate, and at the same time causes the flange to rotate. During the rotation of the flange, the sample tube, the sample platform, the sample plate and the sample are driven to rotate counterclockwise, and finally the sample is adjusted to a horizontal state; during the rotation of the knob, the stainless steel bead is in a tight contact state with the back cover. At this time, the friction between the stainless steel bead and the back cover is used to play a damping role. At the same time, combined with the cooperation of the central gear, circumferential gear and outer gear ring of the planetary gear reducer, the sample tube (that is, the rotation adjustment accuracy of the sample tube) is improved, and finally the precise rotation adjustment of the sample tube is achieved.
[0019] 3. Movement process of the sample delivery device: First, press the operation button to enter the automatic control mode of sample advancement controlled by the PLC control module. At this time, the PLC control module controls the stepper motor of the mobile sample delivery device to start with a pulse frequency of 0, and drives the H-shaped moving block to move to the left on the slide rail through the screw rotation with an acceleration rate of every 4 milliseconds / 1600 Hz. When the stepper motor accelerates to the set maximum pulse frequency, it runs smoothly. After running for a distance, it also reaches the preset distance of the sample placement position at a deceleration rate of every 4 milliseconds / 1600 Hz. At this time, the pulse frequency of the stepper motor is 0, and it stops at the sample placement position. Then the operator uses tweezers to grab the sample on the sample placement table and place it in the upper center of the sample carrier; then press the operation button, and then enter the automatic control by the PLC control module to send the sample to the test sample position inside the heat-saturating tube inside the furnace. When the sample placement button is pressed After pressing the OK button, if the operator finds that the sample is dumped or crushed on the sample carrier, please press the Stakeout Exit button immediately. At this time, the program will be automatically exited under the automatic control of the PLC control module. The sample will automatically drive the H-shaped moving block to move to the right on the slide rail to the origin sample position through the rotation of the screw rod. At this time, the photoelectric switch detects the signal of reaching the origin sample position and transmits it to the PLC control module. The PLC control module automatically controls to stop and finally cleans up the dumped or crushed sample. Then repeat the above operation to place the sample, and press the Stakeout OK button again. At this time, the program will be automatically controlled by the PLC control module to send the sample to the test sample position inside the heat-saturating tube inside the furnace to measure the melting point and melting rate of the sample. When the measurement is completed, press the Sample Position Back button to enter the program automatically controlled by the PLC control module to automatically move the sample tube to the origin position. The melting point and melting rate measurement of the entire sample is completed.
[0020] 4. Accurate adjustment of the camera position; after adjusting the camera position to the appropriate position through the camera horizontal moving device, the camera can be further fine-tuned using the camera fine-tuning slide, so that the camera center line, the highest point of the filter lens, and the sample are ultimately in the same straight line. The filter shielding device is used to use a motor to drive the filter sensor, the filter fixing flange, and the filter fixing plate to rotate synchronously after the temperature in the furnace rises. When the filter lens rotates to the highest point (i.e., the position where the filter lens is at the same height as the camera), the motor stops rotating, completing the shielding process. The camera shoots the picture with the filter lens shielded to avoid unclear pictures caused by temperature changes.
[0021] 5. Use of expansion elimination device: When the camera takes a picture of the test, the light passes through the elimination device and captures the sample in the furnace of the heating furnace to realize image monitoring. In this process, the sample gradually melts as the temperature in the furnace increases. As the furnace temperature increases, the sleeve extending into the furnace will undergo thermal expansion. Since the sleeve is made of corundum, it is resistant to high temperatures and has high strength. After being heated, when the stress of the entire device is concentrated due to thermal expansion, the observation port plate can slide along the axial direction of the optical axis to release the stress and avoid damage to the structure of the entire device due to stress concentration.
[0022] A sample tube for placing samples is provided on one side of the furnace, an axial fine-tuning device for driving the sample tube with the samples to rotate along its own axis is provided at the end of the sample tube, a sample fine-tuning slide is installed below the axial fine-tuning device, a mobile sample delivery device for driving the sample fine-tuning slide, the axial fine-tuning device and the sample tube to reciprocate along the length direction of the operating platform is provided below the sample fine-tuning slide, and the mobile sample delivery device is installed above the operating platform; the purpose of such arrangement is: the sample tube is used to place samples, and when testing, the samples are extended into the internal position of the furnace, the axial fine-tuning device is used to drive the sample tube to rotate along its own axis to achieve the purpose of rotation adjustment during the placement process of the test, the sample fine-tuning slide is used to further fine-tune the test, including fine-tuning in the front and back, left and right, and horizontal and tilting directions, and the mobile sample delivery device is used to move the sample to the inside of the furnace after the position of the sample is determined.
[0023] A camera fine-tuning slide is provided below the camera, and a camera horizontal moving device is provided below the camera fine-tuning slide for driving the camera to reciprocate in the horizontal direction along the length direction of the operating platform. The purpose of this arrangement is: the camera horizontal moving device is used to horizontally adjust the position of the camera. After the camera position is determined, the camera horizontal moving device can be locked. In subsequent use, it is only necessary to use the upper camera fine-tuning slide for fine-tuning. The range of fine-tuning includes the front and back, left and right, up and down, and horizontal tilt directions of the camera.
[0024] A filter shielding device is installed at the front end of the camera to ensure that the camera can capture clear images when the furnace temperature is too high. The purpose of this setting is to adapt to image acquisition work at different temperatures, so that the final detection image can be clear, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of detection.
[0025] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0026] The present invention has a reasonable design structure and is easy to use. It adopts a PLC control system to automatically operate the measuring instrument, and is simple to operate. It can use an axial fine-tuning device to rotate and adjust the sample in the horizontal direction, and use a sample loading fine-tuning slide to fine-tune the sample position.

[0064] When using this high temperature physical property tester:
[0065] 1. Setting of sample position movement parameters of the sample delivery device: 1. Set the distance from the origin sample position to the sample placement position in the PLC control module, and set the distance from the sample placement position to the sample measurement position. 2. Set the starting pulse frequency of the stepper motor 306 to 0 through the PLC control module, and set the acceleration rate and deceleration rate of the stepper motor 306 to every 4 milliseconds / 1600 Hz (the value can be set and modified as needed).
[0066] 2. Sample 605 (fine adjustment of the position of the sample tube 6): First, the operator controls the operation button to unlock the stepper motor 306, and then moves the sample tube 6 to the position of the thermal insulation sleeve 8 by moving the H-shaped moving block 304 of the sample feeding device 3. The operator uses tweezers to clamp the sample 605 from the sample placement table 7 and place it at the center of the sample plate 604; the front and back and up and down positions of the sample tube 6 are finely adjusted by the sample fine-tuning slide 4, so that the image of the sample 605 can be observed and fully displayed through the camera 12; at this time, if the sample 605 is tilted forward and backward, the nut of the sample fine-tuning slide 4 can be used to make the sample 605 in a vertical state to ensure that the sample 605 is in an upright state. When the camera 12 at the left end of the furnace 9 observes that the sample 605 at the right end is tilted to the left lower and the right higher, the operator rotates the knob 508 counterclockwise at this time. The knob 508 drives the reduction during the rotation. The reducer shaft 511 rotates, and during the rotation of the reducer shaft 511, the planetary gear reducer 506 is driven to rotate. The central gear of the planetary gear reducer 506 drives the circumferential gear to rotate, and at the same time drives the outer gear ring of the planetary gear reducer 506 to rotate, and at the same time rotates the flange 503. During the rotation of the flange 503, the sample tube 6, the sample loading platform 602, the sample loading plate 604 and the sample 605 are driven to rotate counterclockwise, and finally the sample 605 is adjusted to a horizontal state; during the rotation of the knob 508, the stainless steel ball 509 is in a tight contact state with the back cover 507. At this time, the friction between the stainless steel ball 509 and the back cover 507 is used to play a damping role. At the same time, combined with the cooperation of the central gear, circumferential gear and outer gear ring of the planetary gear reducer 506, the sample tube 6 (that is, the rotation adjustment accuracy of the sample tube 6) is improved, and finally the precise rotation adjustment of the sample tube 6 is achieved.
[0067] 3. Movement process of the sample delivery device: First, press the operation button to enter the automatic control mode of sample advancement controlled by the PLC control module. At this time, the PLC control module controls the stepper motor 306 of the mobile sample delivery device 3 to start with a pulse frequency of 0, and drives the H-shaped moving block 304 to move to the left on the slide rail 301 through the screw rod 307 at an acceleration rate of every 4 milliseconds / 1600 Hz. When the stepper motor 306 accelerates to the set maximum pulse frequency, it runs smoothly. After running for a distance, it also reaches the preset distance of the sample placement position at a deceleration rate of every 4 milliseconds / 1600 Hz. At this time, the pulse frequency of the stepper motor 306 is 0, and it stops at the sample placement position. Then the operator uses tweezers to clamp the sample 605 on the sample placement table 7 and place it at the upper center position of the sample carrier 604; then press the operation button, and then enter the automatic control by the PLC control module to send the sample 605 to the test sample 605 position inside the heat-saturating tube inside the furnace 9. When the sample placement confirmation key is pressed, When the operator finds that the sample 605 is dumped or crushed on the sample carrier 604, please press the layout exit key immediately. At this time, the automatic exit program automatically controlled by the PLC control module will be entered. The sample 605 will automatically drive the H-shaped moving block 304 to move to the right on the slide rail 301 through the rotation of the screw rod 307 to move the origin sample position. At this time, the photoelectric switch 308 detects the signal of reaching the origin sample position and transmits it to the PLC control module. The PLC control module automatically controls to stop and finally cleans up the dumped or crushed sample 605; then repeat the above operation to place the sample 605, and press the layout confirmation key again. At this time, the automatic control by the PLC control module is entered, and the sample 605 is sent to the test sample 605 position inside the heat-saturating tube inside the furnace 9 to measure the melting point and melting rate of the sample 605. When the measurement is completed, press the sample position back key to enter the automatic control by the PLC control module, and the sample carrier tube 6 is automatically moved to the origin position. The melting point and melting rate measurement of the entire sample 605 is completed.
[0068] 4. Accurate adjustment of the position of the camera 12; after adjusting the position of the camera 12 to a suitable position by means of the camera horizontal moving device 14, the camera 12 can be further fine-tuned by means of the camera fine-tuning slide 13, so that the center line of the camera 12 is finally in the same straight line with the highest point of the filter lens 1106 and the sample 605, wherein the filter shielding device 11 is used to drive the filter sensor plate 1109, the filter fixing flange 1108 and the filter fixing plate 1107 to rotate synchronously by means of the motor 1105 after the temperature in the furnace 9 rises, and when the filter lens 1106 rotates to the highest point position (i.e., the position where the filter lens 1106 is at the same height as the camera 12), the motor 1105 stops rotating to complete the shielding process, and the camera 12 takes pictures with the filter lens 1106 shielding, thereby avoiding the problem of unclear pictures caused by temperature changes.
[0069] 5. Use of expansion elimination device; when the camera 12 is shooting the detection picture, the light passes through the elimination device and captures the sample 605 located in the furnace 9 of the heating furnace to realize image monitoring. In this process, the sample 605 gradually melts as the temperature in the furnace 9 increases. As the temperature of the furnace 9 increases, the sleeve 1004 extending into the furnace 9 will undergo thermal expansion. Since the sleeve 1004 is made of corundum, it is resistant to high temperatures and has high strength. After being heated, when the stress of the entire device is concentrated due to thermal expansion, the observation port plate 1003 can slide along the axial direction of the optical axis 1009, thereby releasing the stress and avoiding damage to the entire device structure due to stress concentration.
