DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the relevant drawings. Several embodiments of the present invention are given in the drawings, but the present invention can be implemented in different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described in the text. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the content disclosed in the present invention more thorough and comprehensive.

[0022] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a central element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be a central element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used in this article are for illustrative purposes only.

[0023] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by technicians in the technical field to which the present invention belongs. The terms used in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

[0024] For examples, please refer to the attached Figure 1-3 A vacuum furnace door hinge device comprises a furnace seat opening 10 and a furnace door 20, a C-shaped hinge seat 30 is installed on one side of the furnace seat opening 10, a hinge shaft 40 is rotatably connected inside the hinge seat 30, and a connecting plate frame 50 is installed on the hinge shaft 40 to connect with the furnace door 20;

[0025] Two groups of supporting mechanisms 60 are installed at the bottom of the connecting plate frame 50, and the supporting mechanism 60 includes a supporting frame 61 connected to the bottom of the connecting plate frame 50 and having an opening at the bottom, a lifting frame 62 installed inside the supporting frame 61 and having an opening at the top, a screw rod 63 rotatably connected and installed inside the supporting frame 61, a nut seat 64 slidingly connected to the screw rod 63 and connected to the top of the lifting frame 62, a driven bevel gear 65 installed on the top of the screw rod 63, an active bevel gear 66 perpendicular to and meshing with the driven bevel gear 65, an adjusting member 67 installed on the top of the outer side of the supporting frame 61 and connected to the active bevel gear 66, and a moving wheel 70 is installed at the bottom area of ​​the lifting frame 62.

[0026] For details, please refer to the attached Figure 1 The connecting plate frame 50 is an L-shaped structure, and one end of the connecting plate frame 50 extends to the side of the furnace door 20 away from the hinge seat 30;

[0027] Furthermore, the two groups of support mechanisms 60 are respectively located on both sides of the bottom of the connecting plate frame 50;

[0028] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the connecting plate frame 50 can cover the front surface of the furnace door 20, so that the connection between the connecting plate frame 50 and the furnace door 20 is more stable. At the same time, the supporting mechanism 60 located on both sides of the bottom can more stably and effectively support the bottom of the furnace door 20, so that the weight of the furnace door 20 acts on the ground, reducing the pressure on the hinge seat 30 and the hinge shaft 40.

[0029] For details, please refer to the attached Figure 2 , the adjusting member 67 is a crank rocker structure;

[0030] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the crank rocker can more conveniently rotate the active bevel gear 66 to realize the rotation of the screw rod 63, and then the nut seat 64 drives the lifting frame 62 to rise and fall in the support frame 61, adjust the height, and enable the moving wheel 70 to contact the ground to complete the gravity sharing.

[0031] For details, please refer to the attached Figure 2 A blocking block 68 with an opening in the middle is installed inside the support frame 61, and the blocking block 68 is located on the inner wall of the support frame 61 at the bottom area of ​​the active bevel gear 66;

[0032] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the blocking block 68 can prevent the adjusting member 67 from being shaken excessively, causing the top of the lifting frame 62 to contact the bevel gear and affect the transmission.

[0033] For details, please refer to the attached Figure 3 , the moving wheel 70 is a universal wheel structure;

[0034] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the universal wheel can adjust the direction more smoothly when the oven door 20 is opened, so as to cooperate with the oven door 20 to complete the flipping movement.

[0035] For details, please refer to the attached Figure 3 A buffer mechanism 80 is installed between the lifting frame 62 and the moving wheel 70. The buffer mechanism 80 includes a hollow shaft 81 connected to the bottom of the lifting frame 62 and a telescopic shaft 82 connected to the top of the wheel frame of the moving wheel 70. The bottom of the hollow shaft 81 is provided with an opening whose opening diameter is smaller than the internal diameter. The top of the telescopic shaft 82 is installed with a limiting disk 84 that penetrates into the interior of the hollow shaft 81. A buffer spring 83 is installed inside the hollow shaft 81.

[0036] In the present embodiment, it should be noted that, due to the uneven floor of some vacuum furnaces, the moving wheel 70 cannot contact the ground, which will cause the weight of the furnace door 20 to not be transmitted well. When the moving wheel 70 is fixedly in contact with the ground, the furnace door 20 will not be able to be opened when encountering a raised ground. The buffer mechanism 80 can realize the extension and retraction of the telescopic shaft 82 and the hollow shaft 81 through the buffer spring 83, thereby ensuring the smooth support of the support mechanism 60 and the smooth opening of the furnace door 20.

[0037] The specific operation mode of the utility model is as follows:

[0038] Before use, firstly, the active bevel gear 66 drives the driven bevel gear 65 to transmit by shaking the adjusting member 67, so that the screw rod 63 rotates, and the screw nut 64 drives the lifting frame 62 to slide. When the moving wheel 70 at the bottom area of ​​the lifting frame 62 contacts the ground, the adjustment is completed;

[0039] When the furnace door 20 is subsequently opened, part of the weight of the furnace door 20 will be effectively supported by the support mechanism 60 and the moving wheels 70 , and the moving wheels 70 can roll as the furnace door 20 opens, thereby ensuring smooth opening of the furnace door 20 .

[0040] The above description of the utility model is exemplified in combination with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the specific implementation of the utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as the non-substantial improvements are made by adopting the method concept and technical solution of the utility model, or the concept and technical solution of the utility model are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the protection scope of the utility model.
