[0022] Embodiment 3, as Figure 1 and Figure 5 shown, a forging production heating device proposed by the present invention, compared with Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2, this embodiment details the structure of the discharging mechanism.

[0023] An unloading mechanism is provided on the outer shell 1 of the heating furnace to convey the forgings discharged from the discharging end of the forging conveying mechanism; the unloading mechanism includes a fully heated forging guide groove 21, a partially heated forging guide groove 22, a mounting seat 23, a telescopic device 24, a pusher rod 25 and a baffle 6; two baffles 6 are provided on the conveying block 3 and are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the fully heated forging 10; two conveying blocks 3 are distributed on both arc-shaped parts at the two ends of the inner support member 14. The conveying block 3 located above at the arc-shaped end of the inner support member 14 is used to convey the partially heated forging 11, and the conveying block 3 located at the lower upper part at the arc-shaped end of the inner support member 14 is used to convey the fully heated forging 10. Correspondingly, the partially heated forging guide groove 22 and the fully heated forging guide groove 21 are provided on the outer wall of the heating furnace shell 1 through a mounting frame. The partially heated forging guide groove 22 and the fully heated forging guide groove 21 are both inclined downward.

The control system is controllably connected to the telescopic device 24.

[0024] Embodiment 4, A method for using a forging production heating device proposed by the present invention uses the forging production heating device of Embodiment 3, and specifically includes the following steps: S1.

The feeding can be manual feeding or automatic feeding through a conveying line; S2. Start the motor, the intermediate frequency heating coil 12 and the unloading mechanism. The conveying block 3 moves intermittently for conveying, which can be achieved by controlling the intermittent operation of the motor. An electromagnetic induction heating area is formed between the intermediate frequency heating coils 12; S3. After the forging enters the heating area of the intermediate frequency heating coil 12, it is gradually heated as the conveying block 3 moves; S4.

Specifically, the fully heated forgings 10 slide onto the fully heated forging guide chute 21, and the partially heated forgings 11 are pushed by the pusher rod 25 and then fall onto the partially heated forging guide chute 22, completing the separate discharge. In the present invention, there are three common production modes. One is to perform the heating work of all the fully heated forgings 10. In this mode, the telescopic device 24 does not work. The second is to perform the heating work of all the partially heated forgings 11. In this case, the telescopic device 24 works according to the set time interval T1. The third is to alternately perform the heating work of the fully heated forgings 10 and the partially heated forgings 11. In this mode, the telescopic device 24 works according to the set time interval T2, and T2 is equal to twice of T1.

[0025] In summary, in the present invention, by providing the fully heated forging support rod 5 and the partially heated forging placement hole 7, the horizontal and vertical placement of forgings can be achieved. Combined with the intermediate frequency heating coil 12 with a set shape, the full heating and partial heating of forgings can be completed, with a wider range of use. Moreover, the length of partial heating can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the support ring 8, which is convenient for adapting to different forgings. In addition, by providing the discharge mechanism, the separate discharge of the fully heated forgings 10 and the partially heated forgings 11 is automatically completed.
