[0002] A vacuum sintering furnace refers to a sintering device that performs atmosphere-protected sintering on heated articles in a vacuum environment. There are many heating methods, such as resistance heating, induction heating, microwave heating, etc. A vacuum sintering furnace is a sintering device that uses resistance heating to perform protective sintering on heated articles. At present, after sintering is completed, natural cooling is generally adopted for cooling with the furnace. Its characteristics are uniform cooling, long cooling cycle, and low efficiency; or direct injection of cold inert gas is used to achieve rapid cooling. Its characteristics are short cooling cycle and non-uniform cooling, and there is a risk of affecting the quality of sintered products. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a rapid cooling system for a vacuum sintering furnace with reasonable structure and good use effect.
[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution provided by the utility model is: a rapid cooling system for a vacuum sintering furnace, which includes a furnace wall. A hot and cold air circulation pipe is connected to the furnace wall. The hot and cold air circulation pipe is connected to a heat exchange tank. The bottom of the heat exchange tank is connected to an exchange pipe, and the exchange pipe is connected to the furnace wall. The top of the heat exchange tank is connected to a water inlet pipe, and the bottom of the heat exchange tank is connected to a water outlet pipe. The water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe are respectively connected to a chiller.
[0005] The heat exchange tank includes a tank body, a cylinder head, and heat exchange pipes. Among them, several heat exchange pipes are vertically installed in the tank body, and a heat exchange area is reserved between adjacent heat exchange pipes. The outlet of the hot and cold air circulation pipe is connected to one side of the upper part of the heat exchange tank. The exchange pipe is connected to one side of the lower part of the heat exchange tank. The cylinder head is buckled on the top of the tank body. The water inlet pipe is connected to the cylinder head, and the bottom of the tank body is connected to the water outlet pipe.
[0006] An upper partition is fixed to the upper part of the inner cavity of the tank body, and a lower partition is fixed to the lower part of the inner cavity of the tank body. The heat exchange pipes are fixed between the upper partition and the lower partition. Through holes matching the heat exchange pipes are provided on the upper partition and the lower partition. The outlet of the hot and cold air circulation pipe is located below the upper partition, and the exchange pipe is located above the lower partition.
[0007] The bottom of the tank body gradually shrinks to form a conical shape, and the water outlet pipe is connected to the bottom of the conical shape.
[0008] After adopting the above solution, when the temperature inside the furnace needs to be reduced, the high-temperature gas inside the furnace is extracted through the hot and cold air circulation pipe and enters the tank. The water in the chiller is supplied into the tank through the water inlet pipe, flows downward through the through holes in the upper partition plate into the heat exchange pipes, then enters the conical cylinder through the through holes in the lower partition plate, and finally is discharged into the chiller (chiller) for cooling through the water outlet pipe. The high-temperature air entering the tank from the hot and cold air circulation pipe contacts the pipe wall of the heat exchange pipes, and the heat exchange pipes exchange heat with the high-temperature air. The cooled gas after heat exchange enters the furnace body again through the exchange pipe, realizing internal and external heat exchange, and repeating the cycle to achieve rapid cooling. The structure after adopting this solution is reasonable and can achieve the purpose of rapid and uniform cooling. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
