Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of annealing unit technology, and in particular to a novel conductive ring annealing unit for annealing apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] Annealing is a metal heat treatment process that involves slowly heating a metal to a certain temperature, holding it for a sufficient time, and then cooling it at an appropriate rate. The purpose is to reduce hardness and improve machinability; reduce residual stress, stabilize dimensions, and reduce the tendency for deformation and cracking; refine grain size, adjust microstructure, and eliminate structural defects. Currently, in traditional annealing equipment using conductive ring annealing units, the conductive rings often become damaged due to constant friction with the annealed material, requiring replacement. In traditional annealing equipment using conductive ring annealing units, the conductive rings are fitted onto the outside of the conductive wheel, and the conductive wheel and baffle are an integrated mechanism, making it inconvenient for workers to replace damaged conductive rings. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a novel conductive ring annealing unit for annealing apparatus.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A novel conductive ring annealing unit for annealing apparatus includes a conductive wheel, with baffles on both sides of the conductive wheel. A conductive ring body is fitted onto the outer side of the conductive wheel. Two fixing mechanisms for fixing the baffle on the right side are symmetrically arranged between the conductive wheel and the baffle on the right side. Each fixing mechanism includes a male buckle fixedly connected to the side wall of the conductive wheel. The baffle on the right side has a first chamber and a second chamber inside. The second chamber has a female buckle that mates with the male buckle. The first chamber has an elastic mechanism for moving and resetting the female buckle. A sliding groove is provided on the side of the female buckle away from the male buckle. The sliding groove has a driving mechanism for pulling the female buckle to move.

[0006] Preferably, the elastic mechanism includes a vertical plate slidably connected to the interior of the first chamber, the vertical plate and the first chamber being elastically connected by a second spring, a connecting plate fixedly connected to the side of the vertical plate away from the second spring, and the end of the connecting plate away from the vertical plate being connected to a female buckle. The driving mechanism includes a guide rod fixedly connected to the interior of the slide groove, a slidable slider sleeved on the outer side of the guide rod, a third spring sleeved on the outer side of the guide rod, the two ends of the second spring being fixedly connected to the slider and the slide groove respectively, a vertical rod penetrating the upper side of the baffle, a pull plate fixedly connected to one end of the vertical rod, the end of the vertical rod away from the pull plate extending into the interior of the second chamber and rotatably connected to the slider, and the pull plate and the baffle being elastically connected by two first springs.

[0007] Preferably, the side wall of the connecting plate is provided with a protrusion, and the female buckle is provided with a through hole adapted to the protrusion. The protrusion is located inside the through hole and is rotatably connected to the through hole.

[0008] Preferably, the first and second springs are tension springs, and the third spring is a compression spring.

[0009] The present invention has the following advantages: the conductive wheel and the baffle are fixed by using female and male buckles. When the conductive ring needs to be replaced, the male and female buckles can be separated to separate the conductive wheel from the baffle, which facilitates the replacement of the conductive ring; it is also convenient to fix the conductive wheel and the baffle after the conductive ring is replaced.

[0013] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0014] Reference Figure 1-2 A novel conductive ring annealing unit for annealing apparatus includes a conductive wheel 3, with baffles 1 on both sides of the conductive wheel 3. A conductive ring body 2 is sleeved on the outer side of the conductive wheel 3. Two fixing mechanisms for fixing the baffle 1 on the right side are symmetrically arranged between the conductive wheel 3 and the baffle 1 on the right side. The fixing mechanism includes a male buckle 12 fixedly connected to the side wall of the conductive wheel 3. The baffle 1 on the right side has a first chamber 7 and a second chamber 11. The second chamber 11 has a female buckle 13 that cooperates with the male buckle 12. The side of the female buckle 13 away from the male buckle 12 has a sliding groove 15. The fixing mechanism can fix the baffle 1 and the conductive wheel 3 through the snap-fit ​​relationship between the male buckle 12 and the female buckle 13.

[0015] The first chamber 7 is equipped with an elastic mechanism for the movable reset of the female buckle 13. The elastic mechanism includes a vertical plate 9 slidably connected inside the first chamber 7. The vertical plate 9 is elastically connected to the first chamber 7 via a second spring 8, which is a tension spring. After the vertical plate 9 is stretched to the left, it can cause the vertical plate 9 to move to the right for reset. A connecting plate 10 is fixedly connected to the side of the vertical plate 9 away from the second spring 8. The end of the connecting plate 10 away from the vertical plate 9 is connected to the female buckle 13. The side wall is provided with a protrusion 14, and the female buckle 13 is provided with a through hole that matches the protrusion 14. The protrusion 14 is located inside the through hole and is rotatably connected to the through hole. When the female buckle 13 moves upward, it can drive the connecting plate 10 and the vertical plate 9 to move to the left and rotate around the protrusion 14, thereby separating the male buckle 12 and the female buckle 13. After the male buckle 12 and the female buckle 13 are separated, the elastic mechanism can use the second spring 8 to drive the vertical plate 9, the connecting plate 10 and the female buckle 13 to reset, so that the female buckle 13 can restrict the male buckle 12 next time.

[0016] The slide groove 15 has a drive mechanism inside for moving the female buckle 13. The drive mechanism includes a guide rod 16 fixedly connected inside the slide groove 15. A slidable slider 18 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 16. The slider 18 is slidably connected to the slide groove 15. A third spring 17 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 16. The third spring 17 is a compression spring. After the slider 18 moves to the left, the third spring 17 can drive the slider 18 to move to the right and reset. The two ends of the second spring 17 are fixedly connected to the slider 18 and the slide groove 15, respectively. A vertical rod 6 is provided through the upper side of the baffle 1. A pull plate 4 is fixedly connected to one end of the vertical rod 6. The end of the vertical rod 6 away from the pull plate 4 extends into the interior of the second chamber 11 and is rotatably connected to the slider 18. The pull plate 4 and the baffle 1 are elastically connected by two first springs 5. The first springs 5 ​​are tension springs. The drive mechanism pulls the pull plate 4 upward, which drives the female buckle 13 upward through the vertical rod 6 and the slider 18, thereby separating the male buckle 12 and the female buckle 13.

[0017] When the conductive ring body 2 needs to be replaced, pull the pull plate 4 upward. The pull plate 4 drives the female buckle 13 upward through the vertical rod 6 and the slider 18. The female buckle 13 drives the vertical plate 9 to move to the left through the protrusion 14 and the connecting plate 10. At this time, the first spring 5 is stretched, the second spring 8 is stretched, and the third spring 17 is compressed. When the female buckle 13 and the male buckle 12 are separated, the conductive wheel 3 can be separated from the baffle 1. At this time, the pull plate 4 can be released. The first spring 5 drives the pull plate 4 to reset, the second spring 8 drives the female buckle 13 to reset, and the third spring 17 drives the slider 18 to reset. The conductive ring body 2 is placed on the outside of the conductive wheel 3, and the male buckle 12 is aligned with the opening of the second chamber 11 and inserted. The female buckle 13 can lock the male buckle 12, thereby fixing the baffle 1 and the conductive wheel 3.
