[0001] The utility model relates to the field of metal heat treatment, in particular to an annealing aging furnace. Background Art

[0002] In the production process, annealing and aging are two important means in the heat treatment process of metal materials. They each play an important role in production, and in some cases are used in combination to optimize material properties. Annealing and aging furnaces are metal heat treatment equipment used for annealing and aging. They heat the metal material in the furnace body and keep it at this temperature for a period of time before slowly cooling it. Annealing and aging furnaces usually require a high-precision temperature control system and uniform temperature distribution. Existing annealing and aging furnaces have uneven temperature distribution due to air duct design problems and are not suitable for mass production.

[0003] Therefore, the above situation needs to be resolved urgently. Utility Model Content

[0004] Purpose of the utility model: In order to overcome the above shortcomings, the utility model provides an annealing aging furnace.

The furnace body is provided with a furnace door, a heating chamber is provided in the furnace body, the bottom surface of the heating chamber is opened, an air duct is formed between the inner wall of the furnace body and the outer wall of the heating chamber, a heating unit is provided in the inner wall of the furnace body, and the heating unit is arranged in the air duct between the inner wall of the furnace body and the outer wall of the heating chamber. A return air device is provided between the top surface of the furnace body and the top surface of the heating chamber, the return air device is connected with the inner cavity of the heating chamber, and the return air device draws the air in the heating chamber into the air duct between the inner wall of the furnace body and the outer wall of the heating chamber. A feeding device is provided on the bottom surface of the heating chamber. During the annealing and aging process, the furnace door provided on the furnace body is opened, and the workpiece is fed into the heating chamber through the feeding device. The furnace door is closed, and the annealing and aging furnace is started. The heating unit provided on the inner wall of the furnace body starts heating, and the return air device draws the air in the heating chamber into the air duct between the inner wall of the furnace body and the inner wall of the heating chamber. The air passes through the heating unit provided on the inner wall of the furnace body downward along the air duct for heating, and then the air enters the heating chamber from the lower end opening of the heating chamber to heat the workpiece. A plurality of temperature sensing heads are arranged inside the heating chamber, and the control system adjusts the switch of the heating unit in real time according to the temperature detected by the temperature sensing head, thereby accurately controlling the temperature inside the heating chamber. The hot air has a lower density due to its expansion, and the hot air will rise, while the cold air will fall, resulting in a phenomenon in which the temperature in the upper part of the furnace body is higher and the temperature in the lower part is lower. The utility model is provided with a return air device at the top of the furnace body, and the hot air in the upper part is drawn into the air duct between the inner wall of the furnace body and the outer wall of the heating chamber. The hot air is heated by the heating unit in the air duct, and enters the heating chamber from the bottom of the heating chamber along the heating air duct, forming an air circulation. The air heated by the heating unit enters from the lower part of the heating chamber, at which time the air temperature is the highest, and enters the bottom of the heating chamber where the temperature is relatively the lowest in the heating chamber, which can rapidly increase the temperature of the bottom of the heating chamber, and under the action of the return air device and the thermal convection effect, the air with a lower temperature at the bottom of the heating chamber can be brought into the return air device, enter the air duct, and be heated by the heating device arranged in the air duct. The utility model has a uniform temperature inside the furnace body, and the temperature control is accurate, and the workpiece can achieve an ideal annealing and aging effect.

[0007] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned annealing furnace, there are two or more return air devices, and the return air devices are separated by partitions. There are two or more return air devices to improve the return air efficiency, and the return air devices are separated by partitions to prevent the return air devices from affecting each other and forming turbulence.

[0008] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned annealing furnace, the air outlet is annular, and a guide vane is arranged around the air outlet. The air outlet is annular, which allows hot air to pass more smoothly and reduce heat loss.

[0010] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned annealing furnace, the heating unit is a U-shaped heating tube. The heating unit is arranged in an array along the inner wall of the furnace body. The U-shaped heating tube is arranged in an array along the inner wall of the furnace body to form a surrounding heating structure, which greatly improves the space utilization inside the furnace body and makes the heat more evenly distributed in the entire furnace. In addition, the surrounding arrangement of the heating tube can more effectively reduce the temperature gradient in the furnace, ensuring that the workpiece is subjected to uniform heat radiation and convection conduction from all directions, thereby obtaining a good heat treatment effect.

The air curtain machine can form an air curtain at the furnace door to block the direct convection of air inside and outside the furnace body, reduce heat loss, and maintain the temperature stability in the furnace. The continuous airflow formed by the air curtain machine can prevent dust, smoke, flying insects, etc. from entering the furnace, keep the air in the furnace clean, and ensure the annealing and aging effects.

[0014] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned annealing furnace, the furnace body is provided with a heat preservation layer, and heat preservation cotton is provided in the heat preservation layer. The heat preservation cotton has low thermal conductivity and good heat insulation performance, which can effectively reduce heat transfer and maintain a high temperature environment inside the furnace body, thereby saving energy and improving thermal efficiency.
