Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model patent belongs to the field of high temperature environment test technology, and specifically relates to a small high temperature environment device. Background Art

[0002] In the process of high-temperature mechanical testing of metal materials, the high-temperature furnace system plays an extremely important role as a key equipment for providing a stable thermal field. Usually, the high-temperature furnace system configured for mechanical testing machines is divided into three types according to the temperature range, with the maximum operating temperatures of 1200℃, 1600℃ and 2000℃ respectively. Among them, the high-temperature furnace system with a maximum operating temperature of 1200℃ is the most commonly used, which can meet the temperature requirements of most materials.

[0003] The common domestic 1200℃ high temperature furnace system usually uses resistance wire as the heating element and performs closed-loop control through PID control instruments to achieve the temperature required by the user. The furnace insulation material generally uses lightweight alumina fiber as the insulation layer.

[0004] According to the current usage statistics of high-temperature furnaces in the market, there are several main problems:

[0005] First, due to the limitation of thermal insulation performance, in order to ensure the surface temperature of the furnace, the furnace diameter is usually large, resulting in the high-temperature furnace occupying a large space. It is only suitable for large-tonnage material testing machines and cannot meet the test needs of small testing machines.

[0006] Secondly, most high-temperature furnaces use nickel-chromium wire as the heating element, but this material's resistance wire has problems such as low resistivity, low surface load and short life;

[0007] Furthermore, the furnace insulation material uses lightweight alumina fiber as the insulation layer. This material has high thermal conductivity and poor extreme cold and rapid heating performance, which can easily lead to cracking of the furnace.

[0008] In addition, the furnace wire heating power supply uses high voltage (220V) power supply, which poses a risk of electric shock;

[0009] Finally, due to the high voltage power supply, the furnace wire diameter is relatively thin, which makes installation difficult. The current installation method is to form the furnace wire and alumina fiber into one piece and bury it in the fiber. This method is difficult to process, has poor molding dimensional accuracy, and most features need to be made by hand, resulting in poor reliability and interchangeability.

[0010] In summary, how to provide an efficient, safe, reliable and easy-to-maintain high-temperature environment for small-scale material testing, meet various application requirements and significantly improve user experience and performance has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0041] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are listed below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to further describe the present invention in detail.

[0042] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the small high-temperature environment device disclosed in the present application is a high-temperature environment accessory, which adopts a small-size design and uses the heating principle of a resistance wire to make the furnace reach a certain set temperature. It is a cylindrical split structure, and the left and right half furnace bodies are connected by a metal hinge at the rear to achieve a rotating opening and closing action. The sample to be tested is placed in the heat field 7 in the middle of the device. To ensure uniform temperature on the sample, the middle furnace wire 6 is mainly heated, and the upper and lower furnace wires 6 are used as compensation heating. The three sections of furnace wire 6 are independently controlled by a PID control instrument. The temperature sensor is set on the sample, and a closed-loop control is formed through real-time temperature feedback. The insulation layer adopts a multi-layer structure to ensure the internal and external temperatures, which can not only use high temperatures but also avoid the risk of scalding.

[0043] The small-sized high-temperature environment device disclosed in the present application is mainly composed of a furnace shell 4, a furnace chamber 3, a furnace wire 6, a ceramic fiber wool insulation layer 8, an aerogel insulation layer 9, an insulating terminal and the like.

[0044] The positions and connection relationships between the various components are as follows: the furnace shell 4 serves as the main frame; the furnace 3 is located in the innermost space and is fixed by the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 2; the furnace wire 6 is embedded in the horizontal groove of the furnace 3, and the furnace wire 6 is led out from the side of the furnace 3 to the wiring shield. The contact position between the furnace wire 6 and the furnace 3 is isolated by an insulating terminal, and the furnace wire 6 and the insulating terminal are connected by welding. The outer layer of the furnace 3 is a ceramic fiber cotton insulation layer 8. After the furnace 3 is fixed, the ceramic fiber cotton is filled in by manual filling and compacted. The ceramic fiber cotton is coated with an aerogel insulation layer 9, which is located between the ceramic fiber cotton insulation layer 8 and the furnace shell 4 and is fixed by extrusion between the layers. The wiring shield is located at the rear of the furnace body, and the wiring shield is connected to the furnace shell 4 by screws.

The furnace wire 6, as a heat source, provides heat to achieve a maximum furnace temperature of 1200°C and is a key component of the entire device. The ceramic fiber wool insulation layer 8 is the most important thermal insulation layer, and most of the heat is provided by it. The aerogel insulation layer 9 is an external supplementary insulation layer. Due to the temperature limit of the material, it is fixed on the periphery of the ceramic fiber insulation layer to play a role of supplementary insulation. The insulating terminal serves to insulate and connect external cables.
