Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of vacuum melting furnaces, and particularly to a mechanical continuous stirring structure for a vacuum melting furnace. Background Art
[0002] At present, the stirring method of vacuum melting furnaces is mostly realized directly through electromagnetic stirring phenomenon. However, the stirring force of the above-mentioned stirring method is limited, which is not conducive to the homogenization of components. Therefore, in order to improve the stirring effect, some enterprises currently adopt the method of manually operating the stirring rod. Since in order not to affect the tilting action of the melting furnace, the stirring rod currently needs to be able to have a lifting function, the purpose of which is to ensure that when the melting furnace is tilted, the stirring rod can be disengaged from the melting furnace. However, this results in a very high space being reserved above the melting furnace for the entire stirring rod, and the length of the stirring rod is very long, resulting in a large labor intensity during manual operation. And since the operating rod needs to penetrate the upper vacuum cavity, there will be a movable seal here, which is not conducive to maintaining the vacuum degree after long-term operation and is prone to leakage.
[0003] In view of the above problems, the present invention designs and manufactures a mechanical continuous stirring structure for a vacuum melting furnace to overcome the above defects. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0023] For the convenience of those skilled in the art to understand, the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, a mechanical continuous stirring structure for a vacuum smelting furnace includes a furnace body 1, and a reduction motor 2 is provided on one side of the furnace body 1 as the power output for stirring. The reduction motor 2 is arranged at a position far from the pouring port of the furnace body 1, and the output shaft of the reduction motor 2 is connected to a vertical transmission shaft 15. The upper end of the vertical transmission shaft 15 is fixedly connected to a first cross bar 5.
[0025] A fixed sleeve 3 is provided below the first cross bar 5. The fixed sleeve 3 is sleeved on the vertical transmission shaft 15, and the lower part of the fixed sleeve 3 is fixed on the outer shell of the reduction motor 2. A second cross bar 4 is fixed above the fixed sleeve 3. At this time, the second cross bar 4 is integrally arranged with the reduction motor 2, and the first cross bar 5 will swing above the second cross bar 4.
[0026] Specifically, one end of the first cross bar 5 is connected to the vertical transmission shaft 15, and the other end of the first cross bar 5 is hinged with a third cross bar 6. One end of the third cross bar 6 is hinged with the first cross bar 5, and the other end of the third cross bar 6 is fixedly connected with a vertical stirring rod 8, and the vertical stirring rod 8 extends into the furnace body 1. It further includes a fourth cross bar 7. One end of the fourth cross bar 7 is hinged with the end of the second cross bar 4, and the other end of the fourth cross bar 7 is hinged with the middle position of the third cross bar 6. Of course, the middle position of the third cross bar 6 here is not an absolute middle position, as long as it is ensured that under the drive of the first cross bar 5, the vertical stirring rod 8 at the end of the third cross bar 6 can stir in the furnace body 1 when swinging with the fourth cross bar 7 as the reference.
[0027] The above structure utilizes four connecting rods, and with the reduction motor 2 on one side of the furnace body 1, it realizes the stable stirring of the vertical stirring rod 8, without the need to reserve a large amount of space above the smelting furnace. Moreover, only through four cross bars, the action of large-range stirring is realized. In addition, the structure is simple and stable, safe and reliable. The overall structure occupies a small space and can easily realize the vacuum smelting operation with the help of the outer shell.
[0028] In the present invention, the end of the second cross bar 4 is close to the furnace body 1, and the length of the fourth cross bar 7 is greater than that of the first cross bar 5. By driving the swing of the third cross bar 6 with the small-radius swing of the first cross bar 5, the occupied space is reduced as much as possible.
[0029] In the present invention, the reduction motor 2 is connected with a lifting drive device, and the lifting drive device is connected to the side wall of the furnace body 1. The lifting drive device can drive the reduction motor 2 and the structure on the reduction motor 2 to perform lifting motion.
[0030] The lifting drive device specifically includes a vertical base 9, which is fixed on the side wall of the furnace body 1. There are two vertical slide rails 10 on the vertical base 9. At least two sliders are provided on the side wall of the reduction motor 2 and are respectively slidably matched with the vertical slide rails 10. It further includes a lead screw 11. One end of the lead screw 11 is provided with a lifting drive motor 12. A lead screw nut 16 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the reduction motor 2, and the lead screw nut 16 is screwed with the lead screw 11.
[0031] Preferably, limit plates are provided at both ends of the vertical slide rail 10, and the limit plates can limit the lifting height of the reduction motor 2.
[0032] The above structure makes full use of the structure that the second cross bar 4 is fixed on the outer shell of the reduction motor 2 through the fixing sleeve 3. It can not only lift along with the reduction motor 2, but also ensure the relative movement support of other cross bars.
[0033] In the present invention, a convex platform is provided on the vertical stirring rod 8. When the vertical stirring rod 8 stirs the molten iron in the furnace body 1, the convex platform is located below the molten iron liquid level. Since there is often molten slag suspended above the molten iron during the smelting process, the liftable manner of the vertical stirring rod 8 of the present invention combined with the convex platform can extract the molten slag and reduce the influence of the molten slag on the molten iron material.
[0034] The present invention further includes a bottom bracket 13 on which the furnace body 1 can be placed. A vertical bracket 14 is provided on one side of the bottom bracket 13. Two bearing seats are provided at both ends of the top of the vertical bracket 14. A connecting frame is connected to the side of the furnace body 1 close to the vertical bracket 14. A rotating shaft is provided on the connecting frame, and the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the bearing seat. It further includes a tilting drive mechanism for the furnace body 1, and the tilting drive mechanism for the furnace body 1 can drive the furnace body 1 to perform a tilting action through the rotating shaft.
[0035] The structure for realizing stirring can perform a tilting action along with the furnace body 1 without affecting the tilting operation, and is more simple and convenient to operate compared with the traditional stirring structure.

In addition, it should also be understood that after reading the technical content of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make various changes, modifications and / or variations to the present invention, and all these equivalent forms also fall within the protection scope defined by the appended claims of this application.
