Detailed Embodiments

[0034] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] The embodiment of the present invention discloses an infrared heating tin refining equipment, including:

[0036] The furnace body shell 1, refractory linings 2 are provided on the bottom surface and inner wall of the inner cavity of the furnace body shell 1, and the refractory linings 2 form a furnace chamber 3;

[0037] The frustum 4 is arranged at the bottom of the furnace chamber 3;

[0038] The pot body 5 is placed into the furnace chamber 3 from the top opening of the furnace body shell 1, and the bottom of the pot body 5 is placed at the top of the frustum 4;

[0039] The infrared heaters 6, a plurality of infrared heaters 6 are located at the bottom of the hearth 3 and are evenly distributed along the side wall of the hearth 3;

[0040] The thermocouple 7, the thermocouple 7 is placed inside the pot body 5;

[0041] The control cabinet 8, the control cabinet 8 is connected to the thermocouple 7 and the infrared heaters 6. It is widely applicable to the heating-up, heat preservation and casting processes of low melting point metals such as tin, lead and zinc. According to the melting capacity and melting requirements of the pot body 5, the present invention can flexibly set the output power of the infrared heaters 6, with a flexible setting method and good adaptability.

[0042] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the infrared heaters 6 are evenly arranged, so that the heated pot body has a larger heating area, is heated evenly, and there is no noise, no emission and high thermal efficiency during the heating process.

[0043] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, heat insulation layers 9 are provided at the top of the frustum 4 and on the side wall of the hearth 3.

[0044] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, a smoke collecting hood 10 is provided on the top of the pot body 5.

[0045] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, a smoke exhaust pipe 11 is provided on the smoke collecting hood 10.

[0046] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, a pot rim is provided at the edge of the pot body 2, and the pot rim is lapped on the top of the stove body shell 1.

[0047] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, a leakage alarm device is provided on the top of the heat insulation layer 9 below the pot body 2.

[0048] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the leakage alarm device includes: a liquid level controller 12, a buzzer 13 and a wire 14; one ends of the two wires 14 are both connected to the liquid level controller 12, and the other ends are in an open state. The liquid level controller 12 is connected to the buzzer 13 and an external power supply. An open circuit state exists between the two wires 14. When the pot body 5 has a leakage and the tin liquid leaks into the hearth 3, the wire 14 arranged below the pot body 5 is in a closed state due to the tin liquid, and the output end of the liquid level controller 12 has an output, then the buzzer 13 is driven to alarm.

[0049] To further optimize the above technical solution, the thermocouple 7 is movable and connected to the temperature controller. Set the required temperature on the temperature controller, start the control cabinet, and control the power regulator to adjust the output power according to the magnitude of the temperature difference. When the thermocouple 7 detects that the temperature of the tin liquid contained in the pot body 5 is lower than the preset lower limit value, it transmits the temperature information to the temperature controller, and the temperature controller starts the infrared heater 6 to heat the pot body 5; when it is higher than the preset upper limit value, the infrared heater 6 stops heating, thereby realizing the heating and heat preservation of the tin liquid. The temperature controller adjusts the output of the power regulator through the PID mode, which can achieve better energy-saving effects.

[0050] Working process:

[0051] Put the tin ingot or tin liquid to be refined into the pot body 5, and put the thermocouple 7 into the tin liquid to measure the temperature of the tin liquid. Connect the thermocouple 7 to the temperature controller, set the required heating temperature on the control cabinet 8 according to the process requirements, and turn on the infrared heater 6 for heating operation; when the thermocouple 7 detects that the temperature of the tin liquid contained in the pot body 5 is lower than the preset lower limit value, it transmits the temperature information to the temperature controller, and the temperature controller starts the infrared heater 6 to heat the pot body 5; when it is higher than the preset upper limit value, the infrared heater 6 stops heating, thereby realizing the heating and heat preservation of the tin liquid. If the pot body 5 leaks and the tin liquid leaks into the hearth 3, the leakage alarm device alarms for early warning. First, timely transport the tin liquid in the pot body 5 to the empty pot on the site, and then deal with the small amount of tin liquid in the hearth 3 after the temperature drops.

[0052] In this specification, each embodiment is described in a progressive manner. The key point of each embodiment is to illustrate the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts among the embodiments can be referred to each other.
