Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of vacuum furnaces, in particular to an installation structure of a porcelain tube in a heating chamber of a vacuum furnace. Background Art

[0002] In high-temperature vacuum furnaces with temperatures of 1400°C to 1750°C, steel tubes can no longer meet the high-temperature requirements. Therefore, it is necessary to use alumina, zirconia, or silicon carbide ceramic tubes as high-temperature furnace tubes. The high-temperature furnace tubes are set inside the heating chamber of the vacuum furnace. Ceramic materials are brittle and have low strength. After the heating in the heating chamber is completed, the temperature inside the heating chamber will cool naturally. When the ceramic tube is cooled from high temperature to low temperature, it will produce a large expansion stress. When this expansion stress is greater than the strength that the ceramic tube can withstand, the ceramic furnace tube will crack and break, causing the high-temperature furnace to fail to work normally.

[0003] In view of this, the present utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0030] On the basis of the above embodiments, some other embodiments of the present application may be further increased or limited by one or more of the following combinations on the basis of the above specific embodiments.

[0031] The insulating assembly includes a circular ring 3, a porcelain sleeve 2 and a porcelain ring 4; the porcelain ring 4 passes through the porcelain tube 10 and is arranged on the outer wall of the heating chamber 12; a round nut 9 is arranged on the circular ring 3, and a thread is arranged on one end of the conductive rod 8 located outside the heating chamber 12 and passes through the circular ring 3, and the round nut 9 is threadedly connected with the one end of the conductive rod 8 located outside the heating chamber 12, so that the circular ring 3 abuts against the porcelain ring 4;

[0032] One end of the porcelain tube 10 located outside the heating chamber 12 abuts against the lower surface of the ring 3 , and the porcelain sleeve 2 is arranged on the upper surface of the ring 3 .

[0033] It also includes a pad 1, a fixed circular plate 6 and a reinforcing ring 7; the pad 1 is arranged on the upper surface of the porcelain sleeve 2, the fixed circular plate 6 passes through the porcelain ring 4 and is arranged on the lower surface of the porcelain ring 4, and the pad 1, the porcelain sleeve 2, the circular ring 3, the porcelain ring 4 and the fixed circular plate 6 are fixed as a whole from top to bottom by screws 5; the fixed circular plate 6 is arranged on the reinforcing ring 7, and the reinforcing ring 7 passes through the porcelain tube 10 and is fixed on the outer wall of the heating chamber 12.

[0034] The above-mentioned pad 1, porcelain sleeve 2, circular ring 3, porcelain ring 4 and fixed circular plate 6 are installed in sequence from top to bottom and assembled by screws 5 to form an insulating assembly.
