The words "one", "an" or "the" and the like used in the patent application specification and claims of this utility model do not express quantitative restrictions, but indicate the existence of at least one; the "first", "second" and "third" used in this article should not be regarded as restrictions on the order of components, but are only used to distinguish different components; "include" or "comprise" and other similar words indicate that the elements or objects appearing before "include" or "comprise" include the elements or objects listed after "include" or "comprise" and their equivalents, but do not exclude other elements or objects with the same function.

[0025] Embodiment 1

[0026] In order to more clearly describe the specific structural composition of the tooling for quenching and charging of extra-large bearing rings, Figure 1-4 Describe this embodiment:

[0027] like Figure 1-2As shown, a tool for quenching and charging of extra-large bearing rings. In this embodiment, the tool consists of two layers of quenching racks 3 and a spacer 2 arranged between the two layers of quenching racks. It should be noted that: a number of spacers are evenly distributed between any two adjacent layers of quenching racks. For example, three spacers can be arranged, and the three spacers are spaced 120° apart from each other to form a triangular support, which has better support stability; the spacer 2 is a cylindrical structure with a central through hole, and a plurality of ventilation holes 23 distributed in the circumferential direction are arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical structure, and a lower support plate 22 and an upper support plate 23 having a diameter larger than the diameter of the cylindrical structure are respectively arranged at the bottom and top of the cylindrical structure. Plate 21, a limiting groove for installing the lower support plate 22 is respectively provided on the plate surface of the lower quenching rack 3 corresponding to each spacer 2, and a positioning end head 31 matching the central through hole on the spacer is fixedly provided in the limiting groove. Therefore, when the lower support plate 22 of the spacer is placed in the limiting groove and limited, the positioning end head 31 is just located in the central through hole of the spacer 2, and then the limiting stopper 5 is pressed against the plate surface of the lower support plate 22 to prevent the lower support plate from tilting, and the fastening bolt 4 is passed through the hole on the limiting stopper 5 and tightened on the plate surface of the lower quenching rack 3, and finally the lower support plate 22 of the spacer 2 is limited in the limiting groove by the limiting stopper 5 and the fastening bolt 4.

[0028] In this embodiment, Figure 3-4 As shown, the spacer 2 has eight rectangular ventilation holes 23 evenly opened in the circumferential direction on the cylindrical surface of its cylindrical structure, and the ventilation holes 23 are respectively connected to the central through hole. Such an arrangement reduces weight and is conducive to ventilation and uniform heating; secondly, the upper and lower end faces of the spacer 2 are two planes, respectively constituting an upper support plate 21 and a lower support plate 22. The outer diameters of the two support plates exceed the outer diameter of the cylindrical structure to form a step for support. Eight reinforcing ribs 24 are also evenly distributed in the circumferential direction on the outer cylindrical surface of the cylindrical structure to support the upper quenching rack and the ring, and the positions of the reinforcing ribs 24 are staggered with the ventilation holes 23.

[0029] In this embodiment, the depth of the limit groove is the same as the thickness of the lower support plate in the spacer sleeve 2, so that the lower support plate 22 of the spacer sleeve 2 sinks into the limit groove. After placement, the lower support plate 22 is flush with the plate surface of the quenching frame to facilitate the installation of the limit block 5 and the fastening bolts 4.

[0030] In this embodiment, in order to improve the stability of the entire tooling, a limiting groove structure matching the shape of the upper support plate in the spacer is also provided on the lower plate surface of the upper quenching rack.

[0031] In this embodiment, the positioning end head 31 is transitionally matched with the central through hole to achieve stable matching between the spacer sleeve and the quenching frame; the positioning end head is arranged at the center of the limiting groove and is formed as an integral structure with the lower quenching frame, for example: the positioning end head can be directly cast on the lower quenching frame, and the height of the positioning end head is preferably 100~200mm. The positioning of the positioning end head is combined with the limiting effect of the limiting block 5 and the fastening bolt 4 to ensure that the spacer sleeve does not tilt or shake during operation, so as to avoid the product falling, bumping and safety hazards caused by the instability of the spacer sleeve; at the same time, the structure does not affect the taking and placing of the spacer sleeve, and is easy to operate.

[0032] In this solution, the number of spacers is flexibly controlled according to the free area and evenly distributed along the circumference of the lower quenching rack; the design height of the spacers is not only greater than the length of the lower quenching rack hanger to prevent the upper quenching rack from pressing the lower quenching rack hanger, but also needs to ensure that after assembly, the upper quenching rack hanging ring is at a certain distance from the furnace cover, and the total height cannot affect the normal opening and closing of the furnace cover.

[0033] By setting up the above structure, it has been verified on site that the charging tooling for quenching of super-large bearing rings is simple to operate, flexible to use, convenient and practical, and can fully meet the use requirements. By designing the charging tooling for quenching, the previous status quo of one furnace and one rack of products has been changed, especially for large-sized rings, the idle area is fully utilized, the purpose of one furnace and multiple racks is achieved, and the production increase effect is significant.

[0034] Embodiment 2

[0035] The structures of the quenching frame and the limiting device in this embodiment are exactly the same as those in the first embodiment. Considering that the size of the bearing ring is large, resulting in a large idle area, the space cannot be fully utilized. Therefore, the internal structure of the spacer can be slightly optimized. For example, the pull rod in the lower spacer can be omitted, and multiple step plates of different heights can be welded inside the spacer. In combination with the isolation plate, multiple layers of small bearing parts that need to be quenched can be placed to make more effective use of the space.

[0036] The parts not described in detail in this embodiment are prior art.

[0037] It should be noted that although the utility model is described through the above embodiments, the utility model can also have other multiple embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, it is obvious that those skilled in the art can make various corresponding changes and deformations to the utility model, but these changes and deformations should all fall within the scope of protection of the attached claims of the utility model and their equivalents.
