[0031] Example 1

[0032] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0033] like Figure 1 — Figure 6 As shown, in order to process gear shaft workpieces, this embodiment provides a heat treatment tempering furnace, including a heating furnace system 1, a plurality of conveyors 2, a plurality of random deflection systems 3 and a water spray cooling system 4. The heating furnace system 1 and the water spray cooling system 4 are connected by a conveyor 2, and the workpiece is transported by the conveyor 2. The input end and the output end of the heating furnace system 1 are both provided with conveyors 2. The workpiece is placed on the random deflection system 3, and the workpiece enters and exits the heating furnace system 1 and the water spray cooling system 4 through each conveyor 2. The random deflection system 3 includes a deflection chassis 31, a deflection disk 32 and a deflection device 33. The geometric center of the deflection chassis 31 is provided with a rotation groove 311, and the rotation center of the deflection disk 32 is provided with a rotation groove 311. A rotating cone 321 is provided on the lower side to press on the rotating groove 311. Since there is point contact between the rotating groove 311 and the rotating cone 321, a rotating gap 34 is provided between the deflection chassis 31 and the deflection disk 32 due to the raising effect of the rotating cone 321. The deflection disk 32 swings on the deflection chassis 31, so that the deflection disk 32 is heated evenly, and the deflection device 33 pushes the workpiece so that the workpiece deflects and swings in the deflection disk 32. Under the pushing action of the deflection device 33, the workpiece is deflected by the water flow or gas flow during transportation and process of the conveyor 2, and during heating and cooling in the heating furnace system 1 and the water spray cooling system 4, thereby changing the contact position of the workpiece and making the heating and cooling of the workpiece smooth.

[0034] Specifically, the heating furnace system 1 includes a heating furnace body 11 and several hatch lifting devices 12. Each hatch lifting device 12 is installed at the furnace inlet and furnace outlet of the heating furnace body 11. The heating furnace body 11 is equipped with several gas guns to heat the workpiece to achieve heat treatment.

[0035] Specifically, the door lifting device 12 includes a door lifting plate 122, a door lifting cylinder 121 and several door lifting rails 123. The door lifting plate 122 is slidably installed on the door lifting rail 123 through a slider. The door lifting cylinder 121 is installed on the heating furnace body 11. The door lifting cylinder 121 is transmission-connected to the door lifting plate 122. The door lifting plate 122 is installed on the corresponding furnace body inlet and furnace body outlet. The door lifting cylinder 121 drives the door lifting plate 122 to rise and fall, thereby opening and closing the heating furnace body 11, preventing heat loss, and having an energy-saving effect.

[0036] Specifically, the conveyor 2 includes conveyor rollers and a conveyor frame, and each conveyor roller is rotatably mounted on the conveyor frame. Each conveyor roller is driven by a chain, and the chain is connected to the sprocket on the output end of the external conveying motor to realize the conveyance of the random deflection system 3 and the workpiece carried by the random deflection system 3.

[0037] Specifically, the water spray cooling system 4 includes a water spray tunnel, and a plurality of water spray ports are provided on the top and sides of the water spray tunnel for cooling the workpiece. A PVC door curtain is provided at the outlet of the water spray tunnel to prevent water mist from leaking and affecting the humidity of the factory.

[0038] Specifically, the rotating groove 311 is a cylindrical groove, the rotating cone 321 is conical, and the height of the rotating cone 321 is higher than the depth of the cylindrical groove, thereby generating a rotating gap 34. The rotating gap 34 provides space for the rotation of the deflection disk 32. Under the lifting effect of the rotating cone 321, the rotating cone 321 is in point contact with the deflection chassis 31. During the transportation of the deflection chassis 31, the deflection disk 32 is able to swing on the deflection chassis 31, and the cylindrical groove limits the lateral position of the rotating cone 321 to prevent it from detaching.

[0039] The cam 332 is fixed to the workpiece 32 by the screw thread 334 and the guide rod 36 for locking the cam 332.

[0040] Please note that Figure 6As shown, the contact position between the gear shaft workpiece and the deflection disk 32 is the tooth surface position, which is a key position in the high-temperature tempering step in the quenching and tempering treatment. Therefore, when most of the tooth surfaces have been lifted away from the deflection disk 32, a center of gravity adjustment block 35 can be set in the deflection disk 32. The side of the center of gravity adjustment block 35 close to the gear shaft workpiece is thinner than the side away from the gear shaft workpiece, thereby maximizing the smooth flow of heat in the furnace and reducing the impact on the temperature control of the gear shaft workpiece. More importantly, by setting the center of gravity adjustment blocks 35 of different sizes, the center of gravity position of the gear shaft workpiece can be controlled, so that the deflection disk 32 can rotate and swing smoothly.

[0041] Example 2

[0042] To process gear parts, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the only difference between this embodiment and Example 1 is that the deflection device 33 includes a push cone block 333 and a push adaptor plate 334. A conical groove 322 is formed on the upper side of the rotation center of the deflection disk 32. The lower side of the push cone block 333 is adapted to the conical groove 322. The lower side of the push adaptor plate 334 is provided with a swing blind hole 3341 that adapts to the upper side of the push cone block 333. The push adaptor plate 334 is placed on the push cone block 333 through the swing blind hole 3341. When a workpiece is placed on the push adaptor plate 334, the point contact between the swing blind hole 3341 and the push cone block 333 allows the gear-like workpiece to swing on the deflection disk 32 during transportation, changing the contact position of the workpiece and achieving uniform heating. To facilitate the formation of the conical groove 322, the deflection disk 32 is simultaneously formed with the conical groove 322 and the rotating cone 321 by stamping.
