[0021] refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 A quenching device for bearing ring production includes a quenching tube 10, a quenching structure and a bracket 11. The quenching structure is distributed around the quenching tube 10. A built-in groove 14 is provided at the bottom of the outer periphery of the quenching tube 10. A mounting groove 24 is distributed around the outer periphery of the quenching tube 10.

[0022] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The quenching structure includes a nozzle 15 and a branch head 18. The nozzle 15 is surrounded by nozzles 16. There are three groups of nozzles 16 equidistantly around each other. Each group is correspondingly equipped with a branch head 18. The branch heads 18 in three directions can heat the workpiece 13 in multiple directions at the same time, so that the workpiece 13 is evenly heated as a whole.

[0023] further, Figure 4 A threaded structure is provided below the middle nozzle 15, which can be rotatably disassembled and connected to the built-in groove 14. After the nozzle 15 is installed, the nozzle 16 is connected and installed. The nozzle 16 can be installed by welding, sleeve connection or thread matching.

[0024] An air guide groove 17 is provided inside the nozzle 15, and a branch head 18 is assembled and connected to the nozzle 16. The branch head 18 is in the installation groove 24. A pressure tank 22 is installed inside the quenching tube 10, and an exhaust pipe 23 is provided at the bottom of the pressure tank 22. The air guide groove 17 and the exhaust pipe 23 are connected to each other, and the nozzle 16 is connected inside the air guide groove 17;

[0025] The pressure tank 22 is filled with combustible gas. There is an air inlet on the top of the pressure tank 22 for filling the pressure tank 22 with combustible gas. The gas inside the pressure tank 22 is discharged into the nozzle 15 through the exhaust pipe 23. Then the combustible gas is discharged into the branch head 18 in the gas guide groove 17 and discharged outward through the branch hole 19. The discharged combustible gas is ignited and then quenched and heated toward the workpiece 13. Figure 1 As shown, an electric control valve can be added in the exhaust pipe 23 to control the output and closing of the pressure tank 22, and the ignition method adopts external ignition or an ignition structure installed in the nozzle 15 for ignition.

[0026] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The bracket 11 is provided with a plurality of limit posts 12, and there is a gap between every two limit posts 12, and the gap is used to place the workpiece 13; a plurality of gaps are formed between the plurality of limit posts 12, and the workpiece 13 is placed on the gaps for stability, and the bracket 11 is evenly distributed around three, and the use of three brackets 11 with the gaps can effectively and stably place the workpiece 13, and the workpiece 13 is placed as follows Figure 1 As shown by the arrow in , the workpiece 13 is placed from top to bottom, and is placed on the interval by manual picking or clamping the workpiece 13 by a robot arm. During the quenching and heating process, other heating equipment can be used to heat the outer wall of the workpiece 13 to improve the heating efficiency. It is worth noting that the bracket 11 is fixed to the periphery of the quenching tube 10, and the angle of the bracket 11 is 90°. The 90° setting can facilitate the workpiece 13 to be placed flat on the interval surface. Multiple intervals can be used to place workpieces 13 of different sizes, and can also limit the workpiece 13 to prevent it from loosening inside. There is no need to add other stabilizing mechanisms. Workpieces 13 of different types and sizes can be processed, and the universal adaptability function for the placement of the workpiece 13 is improved.

[0027] Furthermore, the quenching tube 10 and the bracket 11 are made of high temperature resistant metal materials, so that the quenching tube 10 will not be damaged due to high temperature during quenching.

[0028] refer to Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of branch holes 19 are provided on the branch head 18, and a through hole 20 is penetrated above the branch hole 19, and a sealing plug 21 is sealed and connected above the through hole 20. One end of the two lowest branch holes 19 is provided with a structure mutually nested with the nozzle 16. When installing the branch head 18, the branch head 18 is embedded in the installation groove 24, and continuously pressed inward so that the branch hole 19 is sleeved on the nozzle 16 for stability. The three upper branch holes 19 are connected through the through hole 20. During the quenching process, the heating area of ​​the workpiece 13 can be increased through multiple branch holes 19, thereby accelerating the heating efficiency. The sealing plug 21 is detachably connected above the through hole 20 to prevent the combustible gas from being discharged from above the through hole 20.

[0029] In this embodiment: the gas inside the pressure tank 22 is discharged into the interior of the nozzle 15 through the exhaust pipe 23, and then the combustible gas is discharged into the branch head 18 in the gas guide groove 17 and discharged outward through the branch hole 19. The discharged combustible gas is ignited and then quenched and heated to the workpiece 13. During the quenching process, the workpiece 13 is heated to a certain appropriate temperature and maintained for a period of time, and then immersed in the quenching medium for rapid cooling to improve the hardness and wear resistance of the metal workpiece. When the workpiece 13 is placed in the quenching medium, there is no need to remove the workpiece 13, and it can be clamped on the periphery of the quenching tube 10 by an external robotic arm, and the quenching tube 10 is placed in water as a whole, thereby quickly cooling the workpiece 13. It is worth noting that: the workpiece 13 is a metal material, and the metal material is an alloy or steel. When the workpiece 13 is placed in water, it will not be affected by the buoyancy generated by the water, causing the workpiece 13 to float.
