Therefore, the screw needs to be heat treated during the production process to strengthen its surface strength.

This device adjusts the use height of the fixed sleeve 501 and the sliding sleeve 502 according to the different heights of the screw 4 to support the screws 4 at different heights, reduce their deformation under high temperature and gravity, and improve the applicability of the device. Start the drive motor 304, and drive the rotating shaft through the drive motor 304 The second gear 303 rotates with the second gear 303, and the linkage effect between the second gear 303 and the ring gear 302 is used to transmit power to the ring gear 302, so that the ring gear 302 drives multiple first gears 301, the rotating sleeve 305, the limiting sleeve 306, the connecting sleeve 307 and the screw 4 to rotate slowly, so that various parts of the surface of the screw 4 can be more evenly exposed to the furnace heat radiation and convection environment inside the shaft furnace 1, reducing the local temperature difference caused by gravity or position, helping to overcome the small temperature difference that may exist at the bottom / top of the screw 4 during static suspension, and effectively breaking the local atmosphere stagnation zone that may be formed in the spiral groove, deep recess and tooth side of the screw 4, ensuring that the active carburizing / nitriding atmosphere can continuously and evenly contact all surfaces, effectively improving the surface carburizing heat treatment uniformity of the screw 4.

[0027] Working principle: When in use, first place the pit furnace 1 in a suitable position, then fix the inner circumference of the connecting sleeve 307 to the outside of the external screw 4, and then place the multiple screws 4 and the connecting sleeve 307 fixed into one into the multiple limit sleeves 306 in turn through the external lifting device. The limit sleeve 306 will limit the use position of the connecting sleeve 307 and the screw 4. After the screw 4 is placed, the use height between the fixed sleeve 501 and the sliding sleeve 502 is adjusted by adjusting the bolt, and then the staff manually operates the hand crank to drive the fixed shaft and the driven synchronous pulley 507 to rotate. The driven synchronous pulley 507 drives the active synchronous pulley 506, the connecting shaft 505, the connecting block 503 and the first roller 504 to rotate through the synchronous belt, and makes line contact with the bottom of the screw 4 through the first roller 504; Afterwards, the staff manually operates the turning handle to drive the circular shaft and the second bevel gear 610 to rotate. The linkage effect between the second bevel gear 610 and the first bevel gear 609 is used to transmit power to the first bevel gear 609, so that the first bevel gear 609 drives the forward and reverse screws 608 to rotate. Then, the linkage effect between the forward and reverse screws 608 and the screw seat 611 is used to transmit power to the screw seat 611, so that the screw seat 611 drives the fixed plate 612 and the second roller 613 to move away from each other, so that the second roller 613 contacts the outer surfaces of two adjacent screw fins. During the movement, the fixed plate 612 drives the rectangular slider 704 and the rectangular piston to move inside the gas delivery frame 702 through the connecting frame 703, so as to adjust the use and connection status of multiple nozzles on one side of the gas delivery frame 702. After the installation of multiple screws 4 is completed, the hanger 2 is hoisted to the top of the pit furnace 1 by an external hoisting device, and the hanger 2 is sealed with the top of the pit furnace 1. Then, the pit furnace 1 is heated by the built-in heating unit. After the temperature inside the pit furnace 1 is raised or reaches a certain temperature, the external nitrogen supply device transports nitrogen into the pit furnace 1 to reduce the oxygen content in the pit furnace 1 and establish an inert environment in the furnace. When the oxygen content in the pit furnace 1 drops to a safe level, the enrichment gas and the nitriding gas are accurately introduced to establish and maintain the required carbon potential and nitrogen potential in the furnace atmosphere. Afterwards, the heat is kept at the set temperature, carbon potential and nitrogen potential to perform heat treatment on the screws 4 in the pit furnace 1. The drive motor 304 is started, and the drive motor 304 drives the rotating shaft and the second gear 303 to rotate. The linkage effect between the second gear 303 and the ring gear 302 is used to transmit power to the ring gear 302, so that the ring gear 302 drives multiple first gears 301, the rotating sleeve 305, the limiting sleeve 306, the connecting sleeve 307 and the screw 4 to rotate slowly, so that various parts of the surface of the screw 4 can be more evenly exposed to the inside of the shaft furnace 1. During the rotation process, the screw 4 will assist in driving the fixed box 607, the sliding block 606 and the connecting box 603 to move upward through the second roller 613 and the fixed plate 612. When the first cone block 614 at the top of the connecting box 603 contacts the second cone block 615, the second roller 613 will be transported to the top of the screw rib of the screw 4. At the same time, the fixed box 607 will move inside the stroke groove 616 through the guide rod, cooperating with the first The squeezing force of the second cone block 615 on the first cone block 614 causes the guide rod to enter the vertical section on the other side of the stroke groove 616. At this time, the fixed box 607 will drive the fixed plate 612 and the second roller 613 to disengage from the screw rib of the screw 4, and at the same time stop driving the motor 304. When the first spring 602 drives the connecting box 603, the sliding block 606 and the fixed box 607 to reset, after resetting, the force of the second spring 604 will drive the fixed box 607 and the guide rod to enter the original vertical section of the stroke groove 616. At this time, the fixed box 607 will drive the fixed plate 612 and the second roller 613 to enter between the two screw ribs at the bottom of the screw 4. During this process, the external high-activity carburizing / nitrogen gas supply device is delivered to the thread groove inside the screw 4 through the air inlet pipe, the fixed frame 701, the gas delivery frame 702 and the nozzle, so as to force the high-activity carburizing / nitrogen gas into the entire thread groove where traditional atmosphere is difficult to penetrate evenly.
