Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of nitride production equipment, in particular to a vertical nitriding furnace for continuous feeding and discharging production and preparation of silicon manganese nitride alloy. Background Art

[0002] In today's steel smelting, steel bar microalloying and nitrogen addition technology are increasingly widely used. Microalloying is an economical and effective way to produce high-strength steel bars. By adding a small amount of microalloying elements such as manganese, vanadium, titanium, etc. to ordinary carbon steel, the steel grains are refined and the strength, formability and weldability of the steel are improved. For this reason, a series of nitriding alloys such as vanadium nitride, manganese nitride, chromium iron nitride, silicon iron nitride, etc. have been developed. Compared with conventional nitriding alloys, silicon manganese nitride alloy can not only improve the hot working performance of steel, but also refine the pearlite grains and improve the strength of pearlite steel, and also improve the hardenability of steel.

[0003] The production of silicon manganese nitride alloy can be prepared in a vertical nitriding furnace. As a reactor that utilizes self-propagating heat release, the vertical nitriding synthesis furnace does not require an external heat source when the furnace is opened. However, an external heat source is required when the furnace is baked or ignited. At present, the ignition furnace mostly uses a circle of resistance wire on the inner side of the furnace wall for heating. The material in the middle is heated slowly, and the heating is uneven and insufficient. At the same time, the generated nitride is large in size and high in hardness. It needs to be manually crushed when discharging, which makes it difficult to achieve continuous production. In addition, the crushing process is labor-intensive, causing dust to fly at the production site. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following scheme: a vertical nitriding furnace for continuous feeding and discharging of silicon nitride manganese alloy for production and preparation, comprising a vertical furnace body, wherein a feeding port and an air outlet are arranged at the top of the vertical furnace body, and an outlet is arranged at the bottom; a plurality of parallel U-shaped electrodes are also arranged at the middle position of the top of the vertical furnace body, and the two ends of the U-shaped electrodes are respectively connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the power supply, and the materials in the furnace are heated by the U-shaped electrodes; the lower part of the outer wall of the vertical furnace body is connected to a nitrogen gas supply pipeline; the inner cavity of the vertical furnace body is divided into a heating section, a reaction section, a cooling section and a crushing section from top to bottom; upper and lower layers of crushing devices are arranged on the furnace wall of the crushing section, an upper crushing device and a lower crushing device, each layer of the crushing device is composed of a plurality of crushing components, and the crushing components are arranged around the furnace wall at equal intervals, and the crushing components include a steel chisel and a hydraulic cylinder, the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the steel chisel, the steel chisel is inserted into the furnace cavity through a hole arranged on the furnace wall, and the fixed end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixed on an annular boss arranged on the outer layer of the furnace wall.

[0006] Furthermore, the steel chisel in the upper crushing device is perpendicular to the furnace body, the steel chisel in the lower crushing device is tilted upward, and the holes on the relative furnace wall are also tilted upward, which is consistent with the moving direction of the steel chisel; the blocky nitrides are crushed at multiple angles.

[0007] Furthermore, the steel chisels in each crushing assembly in the upper crushing device are arranged in three horizontal positions, and the three steel chisels are fixed on a connecting block, and the connecting block is connected to the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder.

[0008] Furthermore, the crushing device is arranged in a protective cover to prevent it from being contaminated by dust and affecting its service life.

[0009] Furthermore, the furnace shell of the vertical furnace body includes a steel outer shell and a refractory layer inside the shell.

[0010] Furthermore, a cooling coil is coiled on the outer wall of the vertical furnace body, and a protective shell is provided on the outside of the cooling coil. The purpose of providing the cooling coil is to cool the furnace body and prevent the furnace body from being damaged by long-term high temperature. The purpose of providing a protective shell on the outside is to protect the cooling coil and to ensure the neatness and beauty of the furnace body.

[0011] The technical effects of the utility model are:

[0012] 1. Set up multiple parallel U-shaped electrodes on the top of the vertical furnace body. When heating the material in the furnace, start heating from the middle of the material. Set up multiple U-shaped electrodes, the contact area with the material is larger, the material is heated more evenly, and the heating is faster.

[0013] 2. A crushing section is set below the cooling section, and a crushing device is installed on the furnace wall of the crushing section. The crushing assembly breaks the super-large pieces of nitride into relatively small pieces for easy removal from the furnace. This setting reduces the labor intensity of manual crushing, creates conditions for achieving full sealing of the production process, and solves the problem of large dust on the production site.
