DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0038] The following description is used to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are only examples, and those skilled in the art may think of other obvious variations.
[0039] like Figures 1 to 15 The automated roller heating furnace shown in the figure comprises a cylindrical heating furnace 1, a feeding frame 2 and a discharging frame 3 are fixedly connected to each other on both sides of the cylindrical heating furnace 1, and a rotating groove 4 (such as Fig.11 As shown in the figure, a rotating plate 5 is rotatably connected inside the rotating groove 4, and two groups of clamping rollers 6 are arranged at one end of the rotating plate 5, each group of clamping rollers 6 has two, a driving rotation mechanism is connected to the rotating plate 5, and a reciprocating movement mechanism is connected to the clamping rollers 6;
[0040] The cylindrical heating furnace 1 is connected with a movable sealing mechanism, a plurality of driving rollers 7 are arranged inside the discharge frame 3, a rotating conveying mechanism is connected to the driving rollers 7, a pushing feeding mechanism is connected to the feeding frame 2, a plurality of gas pipes 8 are fixedly connected to the surface of the cylindrical heating furnace 1 along the circumferential direction, and a plurality of ignition valves 9 (such as Fig.10As shown in the figure, the ignition valves 9 are fixedly connected to the cylindrical heating furnace 1, and the top and bottom of the cylindrical heating furnace 1 are fixedly connected with an air inlet pipe 10 and an exhaust pipe 11 respectively; when working, when the sheet metal is heated by the roller heating kiln, the sheet metal is usually heated and moved in the furnace by the support and rotation of multiple rollers to complete the discharge, but in the moving heating process of the sheet metal, in order to ensure the sufficient heating of the sheet metal and prevent the rollers and the sheet metal from having a fixed contact, the heating furnace needs to have a sufficient length to ensure the moving space of the sheet metal, thereby ensuring the heating efficiency of the sheet metal, and at the same time, a sufficient number of rollers are required to support and drive the sheet metal. The extension of the internal space of the heating furnace requires an increase in heating points and an improvement in heating efficiency, thereby increasing the heating cost and equipment manufacturing cost during use;The technical solution can solve the above problems. The specific working method is as follows: the sheet metal part enters the interior of the cylindrical heating furnace 1 along the feeding frame 2 by pushing the feeding mechanism. When the sheet metal part enters the interior of the cylindrical heating furnace 1, one end of the sheet metal part moves through between two clamping rollers 6 of the same group, and the sheet metal part is limited by the two groups of clamping rollers 6, and the openings of the natural gas pipeline and the gas pipe 8 are fixedly connected, so that the natural gas is ignited inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1 through the corresponding ignition valve 9 and continuously heats the interior of the cylindrical heating furnace 1. At the same time, the air inlet pipe 10 continuously transports protective gas to the interior of the cylindrical heating furnace 1 and discharges it to the outside through the exhaust pipe 11. Thereby, the gas circulation inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1 is ensured, and the normal combustion of natural gas inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1 is ensured. Then, the rotating plate 5 is rotated along the inside of the rotating groove 4 by driving the rotating mechanism, thereby driving the two groups of clamping rollers 6 to rotate synchronously, and the sheet metal parts are limited by the two groups of clamping rollers 6, so that the sheet metal parts are rotated inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1 through the limiting effect. During the rotation of the clamping rollers 6, the two groups of clamping rollers 6 are continuously reciprocated by the reciprocating mechanism, and the sheet metal parts are driven to rotate by the clamping rollers 6 and the contact position of the clamping rollers 6 and the sheet metal parts is continuously changed, so as to ensure the uniformity of the heating of the surface of the sheet metal parts. When the sheet metal part is continuously rotated with the two sets of clamping rollers 6 and is in a vertical state, the side of the sheet metal part contacts the bottom end of the cylindrical heating furnace 1 under the action of gravity, and the sheet metal part continues to rotate from the contact state and returns to the horizontal state through the limiting and rotation of the clamping rollers 6. During the continuous rotation, the side of the sheet metal part will produce a certain amount of wear, but in the subsequent stamping process, a certain range of surplus corners will be left around the sheet metal part and will be cut, so that the contact wear generated during the preheating process of the sheet metal part will not affect the subsequent stamping process. After the heating of the sheet metal part is completed, the rotating plate 5 drives the clamping rollers 6 to return to the initial position, and continues to push the next one through the action of the feeding mechanism. The sheet metal is fed into the cylindrical heating furnace 1, and the heated sheet metal is squeezed and pushed to the connection point between the cylindrical heating furnace 1 and the discharge frame 3, and the multiple transmission rollers 7 are rotated unidirectionally by the action of the rotating conveying mechanism, so that the heated sheet metal is moved along the top of the multiple transmission rollers 7 toward the stamping equipment. By driving the rotating mechanism and the reciprocating mechanism, the sheet metal is continuously rotated inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1, and the limit contact position of the clamping roller 6 and the sheet metal is continuously changed, while ensuring the uniformity of the heating of the sheet metal, the requirements for heating in the furnace space and the number of clamping rollers 6 are reduced, thereby reducing the heating cost and equipment manufacturing cost during the heating process of the sheet metal. ;
[0041] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the driving rotation mechanism includes an outer gear ring 12, which is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating plate 5 away from the clamping roller 6.

The first gear 14 is meshed with the outer gear ring 12. A movable groove 15 is provided on the rotating plate 5. Two movable bars 16 are slidably connected to the inside of the movable groove 15. Two connecting shafts 17 (such as Fig.15 As shown), the connecting shafts 17 are all rotatably connected to the corresponding clamping rollers 6; when working, the first gear 14 is driven to rotate by the output shaft of the first motor 13, and the first gear 14 and the outer gear ring 12 are meshed with each other, so that the outer gear ring 12 drives the rotating plate 5 to rotate inside the rotating groove 4, and through the sliding connection between the movable bar 16 and the movable groove 15 and the rotational connection of the connecting shaft 17 to the clamping roller 6, the rotating plate 5 drives the movable bar 16 to rotate, and the movable bar 16 drives the clamping roller 6 to rotate through the fixed connection with the connecting shaft 17.
[0042] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the reciprocating mechanism includes a guide plate 18, which is fixedly connected to the inside of the cylindrical heating furnace 1 and located at the other end of the clamping roller 6. Two spiral guide grooves 19 are provided on the guide plate 18 along the circumferential direction. Two fixed plates 20 are provided at one end of the guide plate 18. Guide pins 21 are fixedly connected to the fixed plate 20. The two guide pins 21 are respectively located at one end of the corresponding spiral guide groove 19 close to the axis. One end of the two connecting shafts 17 of the same group is fixedly connected to the corresponding fixed plate 20. When working, the two groups of clamping rollers 6 are driven to rotate synchronously by rotating the rotating plate 5, so that the two fixed plates 20 are rotated, and the guide pins 21 on the fixed plate 20 are rotated through the corresponding spiral guide grooves 19. The guide groove 19 performs spiral guidance, so that the fixed plate 20 moves away from the axis of the guide plate 18 along the spiral trajectory of the spiral guide groove 19, and drives the corresponding connecting shaft 17 to move synchronously, so that the two groups of clamping rollers 6 move away from each other during the rotation process, and at the same time, the movable bar 16 slides along the sliding connection inside the movable groove 15. When the guide pin 21 moves to the end of the spiral guide groove 19 away from the axis of the guide plate 18, the output shaft of the first motor 13 rotates in the opposite direction and drives the rotating plate 5 to reverse, so that the guide pin 21 moves to the initial position, and the two groups of clamping rollers 6 approach each other during the reverse rotation, so that the two groups of clamping rollers 6 drive the sheet metal to perform limited rotation and continuously adjust the contact position with the sheet metal, thereby ensuring the uniformity of heating of the sheet metal.
[0043] As a further implementation scheme of the present invention, the movable sealing mechanism includes two groups of arc plates 22, which are respectively located at the fixed connection points between the feed frame 2 and the discharge frame 3 and the cylindrical heating furnace 1.

When working, the second gear 26 is driven to rotate by the rotation of the output shaft of the second motor 25. And through the meshing action between the second gear 26 and the corresponding two racks 24, the corresponding two racks 24 are moved away from each other, and through the fixed connection between the L-shaped bracket 23 and the arc plate 22, the two arc plates 22 in the same group are moved away from each other along the through-insertion, and the connecting openings between the feed frame 2 and the discharge frame 3 and the cylindrical heating furnace 1 are opened. When the output shaft of the second motor 25 rotates in the opposite direction, the two arc plates 22 in the same group approach each other and close the connecting openings after contact, so that the inlet and outlet of the cylindrical heating furnace 1 are sealed, thereby reducing the pollution caused by the heating gas discharged from the inlet and outlet, and the arc plate 22 and the inner wall of the cylindrical heating furnace 1 are fitted together to form a ring surface inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1, thereby preventing one end of the sheet metal from tilting and sliding during rotation and falling into the inlet and outlet to cause jamming, thereby ensuring normal rotation and heating of the sheet metal.

[0050] Working principle of the present invention:
[0051] The sheet metal part enters the interior of the cylindrical heating furnace 1 along the feeding frame 2 by pushing the feeding mechanism. When the sheet metal part enters the interior of the cylindrical heating furnace 1, one end of the sheet metal part moves through between two clamping rollers 6 of the same group, and the sheet metal part is limited by the two groups of clamping rollers 6, and the openings of the natural gas pipeline and the gas pipe 8 are fixedly connected, so that the natural gas is ignited inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1 through the corresponding ignition valve 9 and continuously heats the interior of the cylindrical heating furnace 1. At the same time, the air inlet pipe 10 continuously transports protective gas to the interior of the cylindrical heating furnace 1, and discharges it to the outside through the exhaust pipe 11, thereby ensuring the gas circulation inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1 , ensuring the normal combustion of natural gas inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1, and then driving the rotating mechanism to make the rotating plate 5 rotate along the inside of the rotating groove 4, thereby driving the two sets of clamping rollers 6 to rotate synchronously, and through the two sets of clamping rollers 6 to limit the sheet metal, the sheet metal is rotated inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1 through the limiting effect. During the rotation of the clamping rollers 6, the two sets of clamping rollers 6 are continuously moved back and forth through the reciprocating mechanism, and the sheet metal is driven to rotate by the clamping rollers 6 and the contact position of the clamping rollers 6 and the sheet metal is continuously changed to ensure the uniformity of the heating of the sheet metal surface. When the sheet metal moves with the two sets of clamping rollers 6 When the sheet metal is continuously rotated and in a vertical state, the side of the sheet metal part contacts the bottom end of the cylindrical heating furnace 1 under the action of gravity, and the sheet metal part continues to rotate from the contact state and returns to the horizontal state through the limiting and rotation of the clamping roller 6. During the continuous rotation, the side of the sheet metal part will produce a certain amount of wear, but in the subsequent stamping process, a certain range of surplus corners will be left around the sheet metal part and cut, so that the contact wear generated during the preheating process of the sheet metal part will not affect the subsequent stamping process. After the heating of the sheet metal part is completed, the rotating plate 5 drives the clamping roller 6 to return to the initial position, and continues to push the feeding mechanism to feed the next sheet metal part into the circular In the cylindrical heating furnace 1, the heated sheet metal parts are squeezed and pushed to the connection point between the cylindrical heating furnace 1 and the discharge frame 3, and the multiple drive rollers 7 are rotated unidirectionally through the action of the rotating conveying mechanism, so that the heated sheet metal parts are moved toward the stamping equipment along the top of the multiple drive rollers 7. By driving the rotating mechanism and the reciprocating mechanism, the sheet metal parts are continuously rotated inside the cylindrical heating furnace 1, and the limiting contact position of the clamping roller 6 and the sheet metal parts is continuously changed, which ensures the uniformity of heating of the sheet metal parts and reduces the heating requirements of the furnace space and the number of clamping rollers 6, thereby reducing the heating cost and equipment manufacturing cost during the heating process of the sheet metal parts.
