[0012] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. The furnace shell of the present invention adopts an anti-strain expandable structure design to meet the high-strength and interchangeability requirements of large vacuum furnace equipment; the sectional structure design of the furnace equipment can increase or decrease the length of the equipment according to the material size. This main structure design scheme greatly increases the utilization rate of the effective volume and is convenient for transportation and disassembly. Due to the particularly long axial depth of the tunnel furnace, the furnace shell adopts a multi-section assembly form, and the size of each section of the furnace body is the same, which not only ensures interchangeability but also is conducive to subsequent furnace type transformation and improves the use range of the equipment. The furnace door adopts a front and rear double-opening structure, has an automatic opening and closing function, is operated by a button and is provided with a safety interlock device to prevent misoperation or malfunction and ensure the safety and reliability of the system. The furnace door is opened and closed in a horizontal moving manner. The furnace door is vertically located on a translatable trolley. The trolley can be translated in the X and Y directions on the bottom track. The trolley has a horizontal adjustment function to ensure that the furnace door flange surface and the furnace body flange surface are in a parallel state, which is conducive to sealing and preventing deformation and avoiding the jamming and blocking phenomenon caused by the deformation of heat-receiving parts such as the furnace bed during later use.

[0013] 2. The heating chamber of the present invention adopts a modular design, with a horizontal 12-sided structure. Each section is interchangeable, easy to disassemble and repair, meeting the expansion requirements of any size. The heating zone adopts multi-zone temperature control, and the working interval of the equipment can be determined according to the length of the processed material, without the need to use all of it, avoiding waste and increasing the material preparation efficiency. The frame is composed of stainless steel plates, and there are two sets of pulleys at the bottom to enter the furnace shell, making the heating chamber easy to maintain and replace. The heating element uses a heating element made of high-strength graphite material, effectively reducing thermal expansion during the heating process. The insulation layer adopts a hard graphite felt composite structure, and the graphite felt is deeply graphitized, without sagging, cracking, or peeling during operation, ensuring that the vacuum furnace is pollution-free and achieving the insulation effect. The insulation layer adopts a splicing form, which is simple to manufacture and reduces the installation difficulty. To ensure the smooth loading and unloading of the charging car, the charging car track in the heating chamber adopts an integrated design. The material is selected as heat-resistant steel, and a special design connection method is used to connect the charging car tracks into a whole, ensuring smooth loading and unloading while being easy to replace and maintain.

[0014] 3. The transmission and feeding system of the present invention adopts a design form of expandable and spliced track structure. Since the charging car track is heated with the furnace and has a large load, it will deform and fail after long-term use. To meet the action requirements and movement time requirements, the expansion amount generated by the actual operating track of the transmission and feeding system under working conditions such as high temperature during use is fully considered, ensuring the reliability of the workpiece transmission system operation. It is made of heat-resistant steel, making the scattered parts into a whole, increasing stability, enabling the charging car to enter and exit smoothly, and at the same time not increasing the installation and replacement difficulty.

When the vacuum degree reaches 10 -3 Pa, the heating chamber starts to heat according to the preset heating curve. After the heating curve ends, stop evacuation and fill the furnace with inert gas. Subsequently, start the fan to conduct gas quenching on the workpiece. When the temperature of the workpiece drops below 50 °C, turn off the fan and take out the workpiece.
