Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of titanium sponge production, in particular to a titanium sponge heating device. Background Art

[0002] Sponge titanium is a raw product of titanium metal, which is often used to prepare other titanium products. Sponge titanium is extracted from titanium ore by a reduction process, and its name comes from its porous appearance, which is similar to a sponge. Sponge titanium usually exists in powder or block form. Due to its high reactivity and purity, it is often used as a starting material for the preparation of other titanium alloys and chemicals. During the preparation process, sponge titanium usually needs to be refined and processed before it can be used to manufacture various titanium products, such as aerospace parts, medical equipment, chemical equipment, etc. Heating can provide the required temperature to promote the reduction reaction, so that the chemical reaction between titanium dioxide and the reducing agent can proceed smoothly, thereby producing sponge titanium. In addition, by controlling the heating process, the reaction rate and temperature can also be controlled, which helps to improve the purity and uniformity of the product. Therefore, the heating device is indispensable in the production process of sponge titanium.

[0003] Currently, most titanium sponge heating devices are composed of a heating device, a reaction vessel, and an exhaust pump structure. Since titanium sponge needs to be heated in a vacuum environment, the reaction vessel and the container cover need to be fixed with bolts.

As a result, the sealing ring will be deformed or worn during the high-temperature heating process of the titanium sponge, which will cause oxygen to enter through the gap between the reaction vessel and the container cover. As a result, the oxygen will react with the titanium sponge at high temperatures to generate oxides, further reducing the production quality of the titanium sponge.

[0031] Specifically, the titanium sponge to be heated is placed inside the reaction vessel 27, and then the reaction vessel 27 is placed into the inner wall of the furnace body 1. Next, the furnace cover 2 is tightly installed on the top of the reaction vessel 27 through the handle 4, and the sealing ring 9 is installed between the inner walls of the furnace body 1 and the furnace cover 2.

Before heating, it is necessary to open the first valve 18 and evacuate the inner wall of the reaction vessel 27 through the vacuum pump 17.

An intermediate frequency power supply 11 is installed on the inner wall of the fixed plate 10. Two wires 12 are installed on the rear side of the intermediate frequency power supply 11. The right sides of the two wires 12 are fixedly connected with a card block 14. The outer walls of the two card blocks 14 are plugged with connecting blocks 13. The inner wall of the connecting block 13 is fixedly connected with a second spring 25. The top of the second spring 25 is fixedly connected with a movable card head 15. The right sides of the two connecting blocks 13 are fixedly connected with an induction coil 26.

[0035] Specifically, the medium frequency power supply 11 is installed on the inner wall of the fixed plate 10, and the positive and negative poles of the wire 12 are connected to the induction coil 26. Then, the clamp block 14 is inserted into the inner wall of the connecting block 13, and the clamp block 14 is rotated. Under the action of the second spring 25, the movable clamp head 15 is engaged in the groove of the inner wall of the clamp block 14. In addition, the induction coil 26 on the inner wall of the furnace body 1 is distributed on the outside of the reaction vessel 27. This design is to uniformly heat the material and avoid problems such as hard core and excessive bubbling. The insulation board 3 is installed on the inner wall of the furnace body 1. This design is to reduce the conduction and propagation of heat to the outside of the furnace body 1, prevent heat loss, and improve energy saving. The connecting block 13 can separate and remove the medium frequency power supply 11, which is convenient for its inspection and recycling and storage.

[0036] Reference Figure 3-4 Multiple movable clamps 15 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting block 13, and multiple movable clamps 15 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the clamping block 14. The wire 12 is electrically connected to the induction coil 26, and the induction coil 26 is distributed in a spiral shape around the reaction container 27.

[0037] Specifically, the movable clamp 15 slides on the inner wall of the connecting block 13 to prevent the elastic force of the second spring 25 from popping the movable clamp 15 out of the inner wall of the connecting block 13, and then the movable clamp 15 slides on the inner wall of the clamp block 14, so that the clamp block 14 and the connecting block 13 are installed and fixed, and then the wire 12 is electrically connected to the induction coil 26, and further connected to the induction coil 26 through the positive and negative poles of the intermediate frequency power supply 11.

Before heating, the first valve 18 is opened, and the inner wall of the reaction container 27 is evacuated to a vacuum through the vacuum pump 17 to prevent the air inside the reaction container 27 from containing oxides, which will react with the sponge titanium at high temperatures and reduce the production quality of the sponge titanium. Then, the second valve 20 is opened to discharge the cooled water through the drain pipe 19. At the same time, the non-magnetic furnace seat 22 can prevent the magnetic field from Interference, thereby making the stability of the internal processing, the anti-slip pad 23 can prevent the danger of the entire device tipping over, and then the support column 24 supports the furnace body 1, improving the stability of the furnace body 1, and then the refractory board 21 has good high temperature resistance, which can keep the reaction container 27 stable under high temperature environment, and by installing the intermediate frequency power supply 11 on the inner wall of the fixed plate 10, and then connecting the positive and negative poles of the wire 12 to the induction coil 26, and then plugging the card block 14 into the inner wall of the connecting block 13, further rotating the card block 14, and at the second spring 25 Under the action of, the movable clamp head 15 is clamped in the groove of the inner wall of the clamp block 14, and the induction coil 26 on the inner wall of the furnace body 1 is distributed on the outside of the reaction vessel 27.

Therefore, installing the insulation board 3 on the inner wall of the furnace body 1 can effectively reduce the conduction and propagation of heat to the outside of the furnace body 1, thereby preventing heat loss and improving the energy-saving effect. The intermediate frequency power supply 11 can be separated and removed through the connecting block 13, so as to facilitate its maintenance and recycling and storage.
