Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sintering apparatuses, in particular to an apparatus for sintering rods for five-axis machining milling cutters. Background Art
[0002] Sintered carbide rods are the core raw material for tools such as milling cutters and drill bits, and play a decisive role in the service life and processing quality of the tools. According to the production characteristics of sintered carbide rods, in order to facilitate extrusion or compression molding, molding agents such as paraffin are usually added. During sintering, a dewaxing process with a low heating rate and long holding time is usually adopted. However, the paraffin is still not completely removed. In particular, in the area in contact with the boat, the residual paraffin will crack at the high temperature stage, resulting in a local increase in carbon atmosphere, causing deformation and even local carburization.
[0003] The existing equipment used for cemented carbide rods is a graphite boat: a number of V-shaped grooves are opened on the surface of a graphite plate, and paint is brushed or sprayed on the surface of the graphite plate and in the V-shaped grooves to prevent the rod from sticking and carburizing. The rod blank is then placed in the V-shaped groove for sintering. Although this method improves the atmosphere at the bottom of the rod, due to the small space at the bottom of the V-shaped groove, the lower part of the rod still has problems such as poor carbon atmosphere uniformity and poor temperature field uniformity. This can easily cause uneven grains, large differences in grain size, and large differences in cobalt phase content between the lower and upper parts of the rod, thereby shortening the service life of milling cutters and drill bits. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to provide a five-axis machining milling cutter bar sintering apparatus to solve the problems of poor carbon atmosphere uniformity and poor temperature field uniformity in the lower part of the existing vessel sintering bar.
[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the basic scheme of the utility model is as follows: a five-axis machining milling cutter rod sintering device, including a boat, a plurality of exhaust grooves are provided inside the boat, a plurality of support grooves with X-shaped cross-sections are provided above the exhaust grooves, and a hollow groove connected to the exhaust groove is provided in the middle of the support groove.
[0006] The beneficial effects of this solution are as follows: (1) Through the design of exhaust grooves, support grooves and hollow grooves, this solution can discharge more paraffin vapor under the same gas flow rate, and can better balance the carbon atmosphere and temperature field uniformity between the upper and lower parts of the rod.
[0007] (2) The contact area between the rod and the boat is reduced, which reduces the resistance of the rod to radial contraction during the densification stage, thereby improving the quality of the rod and the uniformity of the grains.
[0008] (3) When brushing or spraying the anti-stick coating on the boat, only the upper surface of the support groove can be brushed or sprayed to reduce the influence of factors such as coating composition, unreasonable spraying process and substandard spraying quality on the rod material.
[0009] Furthermore, the upper angle of the support groove is 120°, which is suitable for sintering rods of different diameters.
[0010] Furthermore, the edges of the support grooves are formed in arc transition, which makes it easy to obtain rods with good surface quality.
[0011] Furthermore, the exhaust grooves are cross-shaped exhaust grooves with a lateral spacing of 5 to 10 mm. The cross-shaped exhaust grooves are more conducive to the discharge of paraffin vapor and better balance the carbon atmosphere and temperature field uniformity between the upper and lower parts of the rod.
[0012] Furthermore, the invention further comprises a plurality of support columns, the upper and lower edges of the boat are both horizontal, a plurality of the boats are provided, and the plurality of boats are stacked up and down through the support columns, so as to facilitate the stacking of the boats.

[0020] The upper and lower edges of the boat 1 are both horizontal, and multiple boats 1 are stacked up and down through the support columns 2 .
[0021] The specific implementation process is as follows: by increasing the wax discharge space at the bottom of the rod 6 and combining the cross-structured exhaust groove 3, the carbon atmosphere and temperature field at the upper and lower parts of the rod 6 are balanced, and the cobalt phase migration caused by the local carbon potential difference during the sintering process of the rod 6 is reduced, thereby reducing the bending deformation and grain unevenness of the rod 6; compared with the conventional V-groove boat, the graphite boat 1 for sintering the rod 6 provided by the present invention ensures the uniformity of the atmosphere and temperature field at the upper and lower parts during the sintering of the rod, improves the uniformity of the cobalt phase and grain size of the rod 6, improves the quality of the rod, and lays the foundation for the production of high-end rod milling tools.
