[0002] The melting furnace uses a 200 - 2500 Hz intermediate frequency power supply for induction heating, with a power range of 20 - 2500 KW. According to its characteristics, it can also be called an intermediate frequency electric furnace. It is mainly used for smelting precious metals such as gold, high-temperature alloys, and refractory metals such as titanium alloys. Its application scenarios include, but are not limited to, the preparation of metal materials in the fields of aviation, aerospace, automotive, electronics, etc.

[0003] The vacuum melting furnace is mainly used for the melting treatment of metal materials (such as stainless steel, nickel-based alloys, copper, alloy steel, nickel-cobalt alloys, rare earth neodymium iron boron, etc.) under vacuum or protective atmosphere conditions.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , a high-efficiency and energy-saving vacuum induction melting furnace in this embodiment includes a melting furnace main body 1, an induction coil 2 is fixed on the outer surface of the melting furnace main body 1, a vacuum gauge 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the melting furnace main body 1, and an anti-oxidation component is provided at the top of the melting furnace main body 1.

[0031] Meanwhile, the main body 1 of the melting furnace comprises a heat preservation layer 11 and a high-temperature resistant layer 12 combined, making the main body 1 of the melting furnace adopt a double-layer structure, which can effectively reduce the heat dissipation speed of the main body 1 of the melting furnace. The heat preservation layer 11 can be replaced by other heat preservation materials such as light bricks, and the high-temperature resistant layer 12 can be replaced by other high-temperature resistant materials such as silica bricks; moreover, the induction coil 2 is made of conductive material, which can improve the heating efficiency of the main body 1 of the melting furnace, so as to improve the melting efficiency of the main body 1 of the melting furnace and play a certain role in energy conservation.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 1-3 , in this embodiment, the anti-oxidation component includes a vacuum pump 31, an inert gas transmission pipe 34, a connecting pipe 32 fixedly installed at the output end of the vacuum pump 31, a treatment box 33 fixedly installed at the other end of the connecting pipe 32, three treatment plates 35 fixedly installed inside the treatment box 33, a drawing plate 36 fixedly installed at the front end of the treatment plate 35, and a limiting structure fixedly installed on the right side of the drawing plate 36.

[0033] Among them, three through holes are opened at the front end of the treatment box 33, and the treatment plates 35 are slidably connected to the inner sides of the through holes, so that the treatment plates 35 can be inserted into the interior of the treatment box 33, so as to treat the soot in the air extracted from the inner cavity of the main body 1 of the melting furnace. Moreover, the treatment plates 35 are activated carbon plates, and an exhaust pipe is fixedly installed on the left side of the top of the treatment box 33, so as to discharge the treated gas.

[0034] In addition, an electronic valve is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the inert gas transmission pipe 34, and the other end of the inert gas transmission pipe 34 is fixedly connected and communicated with a gas storage pipe filled with inert gas. The input end of the vacuum pump 31 and the lower end of the inert gas transmission pipe 34 are both fixedly connected and communicated with the top of the main body 1 of the melting furnace, which is convenient for the vacuum pump 31 to extract the air in the main body 1 of the melting furnace and for the inert gas transmission pipe 34 to convey inert gas into the inner cavity of the main body 1 of the melting furnace.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 4 , in this embodiment, the limiting structure includes a vertical plate 37, two limiting blocks 38, a pull rod 39 fixedly installed at the right side of the two limiting blocks 38 and hinged, a moving block 310 fixedly installed at the other end of the pull rod 39, an operation block 312 fixedly installed at the front end of the moving block 310, and a spring 311 fixedly installed on the opposite sides of the upper and lower moving blocks 310.

[0036] Secondly, two limiting holes are opened on the right side wall of the drawing plate 36, and the limiting blocks 38 are located inside the limiting holes and are inserted into them, so that the limiting blocks 38 can be inserted into the interior of the drawing plate 36, so as to fix the drawing plate 36 on the treatment box 33.

[0037] Moreover, the vertical plate 37 is fixedly installed at the front end of the treatment box 33, two through holes are opened on the left side of the vertical plate 37, and the limiting blocks 38 are slidably connected to the inner sides of the through holes, so that the limiting blocks 38 can be moved out of the interior of the vertical plate 37.

[0038] In addition, a sliding hole is provided at the front end of the vertical plate 37, and two operating blocks 312 are slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding hole so that the operating blocks 312 can penetrate out of the interior of the vertical plate 37.

[0039] At the same time, two transverse sliding grooves are provided on the front and rear walls of the inner cavity of the vertical plate 37. The limiting block 38 is in a T shape and is slidably connected to the inner side of the transverse sliding groove, which can limit the moving range of the limiting block 38 so that it can accurately move out of the interior of the vertical plate 37. Vertical sliding grooves are provided on the front and rear walls of the inner cavity of the vertical plate 37. The rear end of the moving block 310 is located inside the vertical sliding groove and is slidably connected thereto, preventing the moving block 310 from tilting and enabling the moving block 310 to move smoothly inside the vertical plate 37.

[0040] It should be noted that the induction coil 2, the vacuum gauge 3, the vacuum pump 31 and the electronic components mentioned in the text are all well-known to the public in the prior art, and the electrical components mentioned in the text are all connected to the controller and the power supply. The control mode of this new type of implementation is controlled by the controller, and the control circuit of the controller can be realized by simple programming by those skilled in the art. The provision of the power supply also belongs to the well-known common knowledge in this field, so the control mode and circuit connection of this utility model will not be explained in detail.

[0041] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows:

[0042] When in use, when the vacuum gauge 3 senses that the inner cavity of the melting furnace main body 1 is not in a vacuum state, the vacuum gauge 3 sends a signal to the control end, causing the control end to control the vacuum pump 31 and the electronic valve to work, so that the vacuum pump 31 can pump out the air in the melting furnace main body 1, facilitating real-time monitoring of whether the melting furnace main body 1 is in a vacuum state. At the same time, the inert gas supply pipe 34 can add inert gas into the melting furnace main body 1, making it difficult for the metal material to oxidize during the melting process, thereby reducing the impact on the quality and performance of the product after melting the metal material;

[0043] When the vacuum pump 31 pumps out the air in the melting furnace main body 1 and transports it to the treatment box 33, the three treatment plates 35 can treat impurities such as soot in the pumped air, and the treated gas is discharged through the discharge pipe of the treatment box 33, thereby reducing the phenomenon of pollution to the external environment caused by the air in the inner cavity of the melting furnace main body 1. The two operating blocks 312 move relative to each other, causing the operating blocks 312 to drive the two moving blocks 310 to move relative to each other. The two moving blocks 310 can squeeze the springs 311, and while the two moving blocks 310 move relative to each other, they can pull the two limiting blocks 38 to move to the right through the two pull rods 39, gradually moving them into the interior of the vertical plate 37, thereby being able to pull the extraction plate 36 forward to facilitate the extraction of the treatment plate 35 from the treatment box 33 for easy replacement of the treatment plate 35.
