For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0023] Example, see Figures 1 to 6A quenching device for metal heat treatment includes a quenching treatment table 1, a mounting chamber 2 is provided on the quenching treatment table 1, a laser quenching device 3 is provided on the mounting chamber 2, the laser quenching device 3 is a prior art and will not be described in detail herein, a water storage chamber 4 is provided inside the mounting chamber 2, a water circulation component is provided in the water storage chamber 4; Furthermore, the water circulation component includes a water delivery chamber 10 opened in the water storage chamber 4, and a turbine disc 14 is arranged in the water delivery chamber 10. When the turbine disc 14 rotates, it will generate power for the cooling water in the water storage chamber 4, so as to circulate the cooling water; A cooling pipe layer 15 connected to the water storage chamber 4 is provided on one side of the installation chamber 2. The cooling pipe layer 15 is distributed in an "S" shape and is in direct contact with the outside world, which can achieve an effective heat dissipation effect. The interior of the heat-insulating cooling semi-ring body 5 is hollow, and its two ends are respectively connected to the water delivery chamber 10 and the cooling pipe layer 15.
[0024] A heat-insulating cooling semi-ring 5 connected to a water circulation assembly is provided on one side of the installation chamber 2, and a quenching pretreatment device is provided on the heat-insulating cooling semi-ring 5; Furthermore, the quenching pretreatment device includes a high-frequency vibrator 16 arranged on the quenching treatment table 1. The high-frequency vibrator 16 is a prior art and will not be described in detail herein. The side walls of the heat-insulating cooling semi-ring body 5 located on both sides of the quenching position mouth 6 are provided with a connecting support 17, and the connecting support 17 is connected to a cleaning disk 18 through a vertical axis. The outer wall of the cleaning disk 18 is provided with a cleaning tooth piece 19, and the output end of the high-frequency vibrator 16 is connected to the vertical axis.
[0025] The cleaning tooth piece 19 arranged on the cleaning disk 18 is meshed with the gear ring to be quenched. When the cleaning tooth piece 19 contacts the teeth on the gear ring to be quenched, the teeth can be effectively cleaned.
[0026] It should be noted that quenching pretreatment devices are provided on both sides of the quenching position opening 6. When the gear ring to be quenched rotates clockwise during quenching, the first quenching pretreatment device it contacts plays a role in vibrating and cleaning the teeth of the gear ring to be quenched, so as to ensure the cleanliness of the quenching position during quenching. The second quenching pretreatment device that contacts the gear after quenching can effectively clean the impurities on the quenched tooth part of the gear after quenching, thereby achieving the effect of quenching slag removal.
[0027] A quenching position opening 6 is provided on the heat-insulating cooling semi-ring body 5, and a wave absorbent cotton layer is provided in the quenching position opening 6. The height of the wave absorbent cotton layer is higher than the quenching position opening 6, which can ensure that when the gear ring to be quenched is at the quenching position opening 6, the wave absorbent cotton layer can fully contact with the bottom of the gear ring to be quenched, so as to achieve effective heat dissipation of the contact part of the gear ring to be quenched. A baffle assembly is provided at the quenching position opening 6; A driving platform 7 is arranged on the quenching treatment table 1, and a driving main motor 8 is arranged inside the driving platform 7. A rotating disk 9 is rotatably connected above the driving platform 7, and a blocking member is arranged on the outer wall of the rotating disk 9. Further, the blocking member includes a clamping ring 20 fixedly arranged on the driving platform 7, and a telescopic clamping block 21 adapted to the clamping ring 20 is movably arranged on the outer wall of the rotating disk 9.
[0028] The setting of the blocking member is designed to meet the need to fix the hardened gear ring by adjusting the interference assembly. When the blocking member is opened, the rotating disk 9 cannot rotate, thereby limiting the rotation of the interference adjustment rod 26 connected thereto, and ensuring that the adjustment disk 25 moves up and down when the vertical screw 24 rotates.
[0029] The rotating disk 9 is connected to a plurality of arc-shaped abutment seats 11 through telescopic parts. The arc-shaped abutment seats 11 are arranged in an "L" shape, and a rubber layer for increasing friction is arranged on the surface of the arc-shaped abutment seats 11.
[0030] Furthermore, the telescopic member includes a telescopic cover body 22 fixedly arranged on the outer side wall of the rotating disk 9 , and the arc-shaped abutment seat 11 is fixedly connected with a telescopic rod, and the end of the telescopic rod is located in the telescopic cover body 22 .
[0031] The driving main motor 8 controls the movement of the arc-shaped interference seat 11 by adjusting the interference assembly; further, the adjusting interference assembly includes a vertical lead screw 24 extending upward from the output end of the driving main motor 8 and fixedly connected thereto, the vertical lead screw 24 is connected to an adjusting disk 25 through a lead screw nut ring, the outer side wall of the adjusting disk 25 is rotatably connected to a interference adjusting rod 26, and a U-shaped connecting block 23 rotatably connected to the interference adjusting rod 26 is provided on the back of the arc-shaped interference seat 11.
[0032] The advantage of adopting the above structure is that when the gear ring to be quenched is installed, the quenched gear ring is placed on the arc-shaped interference seat 11. At this time, the rotation of the rotating disk 9 is limited by the blocking piece, and the main motor 8 is started to drive the vertical screw 24 connected to it to rotate. The adjustment disk 25 connected to it through the screw nut ring will move downward during rotation, driving the interference adjustment rod 26 to drive the arc-shaped interference seat 11 to move outward, thereby effectively supporting the gear ring to be quenched, and when it is necessary to drive the gear ring to be quenched to rotate, the rotation can be achieved by driving the main motor 8 to rotate.
[0033] Furthermore, the driving assembly includes a constant speed motor 27 arranged in the driving platform 7, and the output end of the constant speed motor 27 is fixedly connected to a transverse driving shaft 28. The outer wall of the transverse driving shaft 28 extends outward through the water delivery cavity 10 and is fixedly connected to the baffle plate 12. The turbine plate 14 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transverse driving shaft 28.
[0034] The baffle assembly includes a baffle disc 12 driven by a driving assembly. A plurality of baffle plates 13 are evenly arranged on the outer side wall of the baffle disc 12. The baffle plates 13 are provided with a coating for refracting laser light.
[0035] Through the precise control of the constant speed motor 27, during the rotation of the gear ring to be quenched, the baffle plate 12 will not block the laser at the tooth. When the tooth groove does not need to be quenched, the baffle plate 13 on the baffle plate 12 just rotates to the corresponding position, thereby blocking the laser and ensuring that the tooth groove will not be quenched during quenching, thereby ensuring the plastic strength of the entire tooth.
[0036] When quenching the teeth of the gear ring, the present invention places the gear ring on the arc-shaped interference seat 11, limits the rotation of the rotating disk 9 by means of the blocking piece, starts the driving main motor 8, and rotates the vertical lead screw 24 connected thereto, and the adjusting disk 25 connected thereto by means of the lead screw nut ring moves downward during rotation, driving the interference adjustment rod 26 to drive the arc-shaped interference seat 11 to move outward, until the inner support of the gear ring is fixed on the multiple arc-shaped interference seats 11. At this time, the position of the gear ring for quenching will be at the quenching position opening 6 of the heat-insulating cooling semi-ring body 5, the ring body position of the gear ring will be directly above the quenching position opening 6, and will contact the wavy water-absorbing cotton layer in the quenching position opening 6, the tooth position is on the inner side of the heat-insulating cooling semi-ring body 5, and will not directly contact the teeth of the gear ring to be tested when circulating through water, thereby realizing accurate positioning of the laser quenching position of the gear ring; During quenching, the main motor 8 is driven to drive the gear ring to rotate slowly, and the laser quenching device 3 can realize accurate quenching of the tooth part on the rotating gear ring. During the quenching process, the surface of the tooth quickly heats up, and its temperature is transmitted to the position of the gear ring body. At this time, the wave absorbent cotton layer arranged at the bottom of the gear ring body and located at the heat-insulating cooling semi-ring body 5 can isolate the temperature, and the temperature cannot be transmitted to the hole position on the gear ring body, thereby effectively preventing the hole from being affected by heat; During laser quenching, the baffle plate 12 connected to the constant speed motor 27 will be driven to rotate. During the rotation, the baffle plate 13 on the baffle plate 12 will rotate. During the rotation, when the baffle plate 13 rotates to the upper side to block the laser, the laser quenching position of the gear ring to be quenched is just at the tooth groove. Therefore, when the gear ring is quenched, the tooth groove of the gear will not be quenched, thereby avoiding the situation where the hardness increases and the toughness decreases due to the quenching of the tooth root, thereby ensuring the quality of the gear ring gear quenching.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
