Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an experimental device, in particular to a crucible preheating device. Background Art

[0002] When heating a cooled crucible during an experiment, part of the time is spent on heating the crucible, which will waste a lot of time in material experiments that require a large number of comparisons. At the same time, a layer of water vapor will adhere to the surface of the crucible when it is cooled. Directly adding materials to the cooled crucible for heating will allow some water vapor to penetrate into the experimental materials, affecting the accuracy of the experiment.

[0003] At present, the utility model with patent number CN212902600U discloses a gas crucible furnace capable of preheating aluminum ingots, including a furnace shell, a crucible, a burner and an exhaust pipe. With the above technical solution, since the furnace body is connected to the heat storage chamber through a connecting channel, the burner sprays flames to heat the crucible in the flame channel, and after the flue gas heat energy enters the heat storage chamber through the connecting channel, the flue gas heat energy in the heat storage chamber is discharged outward through the exhaust pipe. Since a connecting elbow is provided at the upper end of the exhaust pipe, and a discharge tray is provided below the connecting elbow, the direction of exhaust gas heat energy discharged from the exhaust line is changed, and the aluminum ingots to be added to the crucible can be placed in the discharge tray. The aluminum ingots are preheated and baked by the discharged waste heat exhaust gas, which can evaporate the water of the aluminum ingots to be melted and heat and save energy before the lower crucible furnace, and the discharged exhaust heat energy is reasonably utilized, thereby improving the energy utilization rate. However, when heating the crucible, the high-temperature hot air in this application can only heat the outer surface of the crucible, and then directly enter the chamber along the connecting channel, which makes it impossible to heat the inside of the crucible, resulting in low heating efficiency. At the same time, this application can only heat one steel pot at a time, which is not very convenient to use. Summary of the invention

At the same time, the patent can only heat one steel pot at a time, which is not very convenient to use. The patent uses the bottom heating end 6-4 and the side heating end 6-5 to heat the bottom of the crucible, and then extends into the crucible. The hot air loop pipe 5 inside the crucible discharges hot air, allowing the hot air at the bottom of the crucible to heat the outside of the crucible, and then flow upward along the gap between the outer wall of the crucible and the insulation layer 6-1 to heat the entire outer wall of the crucible. The hot air then flows along the outer side of the hot air loop pipe 5 and the inner wall of the crucible, thereby heating the inner wall of the crucible, thereby achieving unified heating of the inner and outer walls of the entire crucible, and by arranging multiple hot air loop pipes 5 and crucible heating components 6 in the heating device upper cover 1 and the crucible heating component 6, it is possible to heat multiple crucibles at one time, effectively improving the heating efficiency.
