Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of high-temperature furnaces, in particular to a soft felt hole-opening device for high-temperature furnaces. Background Art
[0002] High-temperature furnaces are generally composed of furnace bodies, heaters, insulation systems, and vacuum systems. The performance of the insulation system directly affects the power loss of the equipment and the overall safety of the equipment. At present, the insulation system is mainly composed of an insulation cage and an insulation layer. The insulation layer is usually made of multiple layers of PAN-based and viscose-based graphite soft felt, and is installed on the insulation cage through carbon-carbon bolts and carbon ropes, which can effectively reduce heat loss. The soft felt is a whole roll of felt when it leaves the factory. The whole roll of felt must be sewn to the insulation cage first, and then the soft felt must be opened according to the bottom size. These holes include graphite electrode holes, graphite support column holes, etc. The hole position and size need to be strictly controlled. If the hole position deviates, other components cannot be installed, and the hole size deviation is prone to heat leakage. Because the soft felt is thick, it is easy to offset when opening the hole directly with a hole opener, which makes it difficult to meet the accuracy requirements. Therefore, it takes a lot of time to position and correct each time a hole is opened, resulting in a waste of manpower and time costs. Utility Model Content
