Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medium frequency furnace equipment, in particular to a detachable medium frequency furnace. Background Art
[0002] The medium frequency furnace is a common equipment used for metal smelting. Compared with other casting equipment, it not only has high thermal efficiency and less environmental pollution, but also can accurately control the temperature and composition of the molten metal, so it is widely used. Figure 4 As shown, the furnace body 1 includes a crucible 3, an induction coil 2 is arranged between the crucible 3 and the furnace body 1, and is filled with refractory quartz sand 4. During production, the quartz sand 4 between the crucible 3 and the furnace body 1 is rammed and sintered, so that the crucible 3, the induction coil 3 and the inner lining of the furnace body 1 form a whole, so as to ensure that the crucible will not slip out and cause an accident when the medium frequency furnace is used to pour the smelted metal.
[0003] However, when the oxidation corrosion of the inner wall of the crucible cannot meet the smelting safety requirements, this design requires the use of mechanical tools such as electric hammers to destroy the overall structure, so that the crucible can be separated from the furnace lining before it can be taken out. After replacement, the furnace needs to be rebuilt, which greatly increases the difficulty of disassembly and assembly, and the labor intensity is high. In addition, destructive disassembly and assembly is very likely to damage the induction coil. Once damaged, it will not be able to produce the electromagnetic induction heating effect to melt the metal. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a medium frequency furnace that is easy to load and unload. Utility Model Content

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0022] like Figure 1 Figure 2 As shown, a detachable medium frequency furnace includes a furnace body 1, a crucible 3 is arranged in the furnace body 1, an induction coil 2 is arranged between the crucible 3 and the furnace body 1, a connecting plate 9 is installed on the top of the furnace body 1 (the connecting plate 9 is installed on the top of the furnace body 1 through high-temperature resistant bolts between the furnace body 1 and the induction coil 2), and an opening is opened on the connecting plate 9 for a furnace nozzle 5 to extend to the outside. These are all existing technologies. A jacket 7 is provided between the induction coil 2 and the crucible 3, and the jacket 7 is made of silicon carbide; graphite powder 8 is filled between the jacket 7 and the crucible 3 (graphite crucible), and the graphite powder 8 includes fine-grained graphite powder 801 and coarse-grained graphite powder 802, wherein the fine-grained graphite powder 801 is filled at the bottom between the jacket 7 and the crucible 3 and below 3 / 4 of the height, and the coarse-grained graphite powder 802 is filled at more than 3 / 4 of the height between the jacket 7 and the crucible 3; the top of the jacket 7 and the crucible 3 are connected to a connecting plate 9 installed on the top of the furnace body 1, and the gap between the jacket 7 and the crucible 3 and the connecting plate 9 is sealed with a refractory material, and the top opening of the connecting plate 9 corresponds to the opening of the crucible 3.
[0023] When in use, a jacket 7 is placed inside the induction coil 2, and fine-grained graphite powder 801 is filled at the bottom of the jacket 7. Then, the crucible 3 is placed in the jacket 7, and 3 / 4 of the height of the gap between the jacket 7 and the crucible 3 is filled with fine-grained graphite powder 801, and the remaining 1 / 4 of the height is filled with coarse-grained graphite powder 802 (the coarse-grained graphite powder is used in this part to facilitate the sealing treatment with the connecting plate 9). Subsequently, a nozzle brick with a nozzle 5 is installed on the opening between the induction coil 2 and the furnace body 1 for the nozzle to extend out, and finally, the connecting plate 9 is installed on the furnace body 1, and the connecting plate 9 covers the jacket 7, the crucible 3, and the nozzle brick.
