Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to mechanical equipment, relates to the field of conveying equipment, and particularly relates to an insulating support structure for a conveying roller of an intermediate frequency furnace. Background Technique

[0002] When processing small-diameter steel balls, due to the small diameter of the steel, after being heated to the set temperature in a natural gas heating furnace, the steel is prone to serious bending and deformation due to uneven heating and other reasons, and often cannot be pushed out of the heating furnace, which is not conducive to the secondary processing of the steel. Therefore, a more convenient and fast intermediate frequency heating method is adopted. By using the alternating magnetic field generated by the induction coil, eddy currents are generated inside the steel, realizing rapid and uniform heating, reducing the thermal stress caused by uneven heating, and reducing the risk of bending and deformation of the steel.

[0003] During the process of using the conveying roller to convey the steel rod into the intermediate frequency furnace, due to the conductivity of the induction intermediate frequency power supply, the conveying roller and the conveyed steel rod are conductive, resulting in electric shock conductive traces on the surface of the steel plate, causing mottled pit traces on the outer surface of the processed steel balls, affecting the appearance quality of the steel balls, and producing a large number of defective and substandard steel balls. Secondly, electric shock traces are generated on the conveying roller. Under the action of electric shock damage, the conveying roller is severely worn, affecting the conveying effect of the steel rod, and it needs to be maintained and replaced, reducing the production efficiency. Moreover, there is a conductive phenomenon between the bearings assembled at both ends of the conveying roller and the fixed base, causing the bearing steel balls, the bearing cage, and the inner wall of the outer ring of the bearing to be conductive, resulting in frequent bearing damage, increasing the equipment maintenance frequency, raising the production cost while reducing the production efficiency. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The utility model provides an insulating support structure for a conveying roller of an intermediate frequency furnace to solve the technical problem that the conveying roller and the bracket supporting it are conductive and are easily damaged by electric shock, affecting the service life and reducing the production efficiency. By providing multiple insulating isolation bands in the support structure of the conveying roller, the conductive phenomenon is suppressed, thereby protecting the conveying roller and its support structure, avoiding electric shock damage, prolonging its service life, reducing the failure rate, and ensuring the use safety.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows: An insulating support structure for a conveying idler of an intermediate frequency furnace is provided, which includes a base and a conveying roller arranged above the base.

[0007] To further optimize this technical solution, a supporting wheel is sleeved in the middle of the outer side wall of the conveying roller, and a concave surface is provided on the outer side wall of the supporting wheel.

[0008] When the supporting wheel supports and conveys steel, the concave surface of the supporting wheel can prevent the steel from shaking and falling off the supporting wheel, ensuring the stability and safety of steel conveying.

[0009] To further optimize this technical solution, assembly points protruding outward are provided at the front and rear ends of the bottom of the bracket. The bottom surfaces of the assembly points are flush with the bottom surface of the bracket, and the insulating gaskets are attached to the assembly points. The insulating bakelite is arranged on the assembly points and penetrates downward through the insulating gaskets, and is flush with the bottom surface of the insulating gaskets.

[0010] The assembly points protruding outward at the bottom of the bracket provide installation positions for the bolts and the insulating bakelite outside them.

[0013] To further optimize this technical solution, anti-loosening gaskets are sleeved outside the bolts, and the two ends of the anti-loosening gaskets are respectively abutted against the end face of the bolt head and the end face of the insulating bakelite.

[0014] After the bolts are tightened, the anti-loosening gaskets sleeved outside the bolts are abutted against the bolt head and the end face of the insulating bakelite, thereby generating a reaction force to make the bolts tightly meshed with the base threads, avoiding bolt loosening, and ensuring the assembly strength and use reliability.

[0020] 3. The insertion of the insulating sleeve into the conveying roller insulates the bearing housing and the supporting bearing, preventing them from being damaged by electric shock. The air outlet ring fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bearing housing is sleeved outside the insulating sleeve.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENT

[0029] The present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and the specific embodiments.

[0030] Please refer to the attached Figures 1-3, an insulating support structure for a conveying roller of an intermediate frequency furnace, comprising a base 1. Above the base 1, a conveying roller 2 is erected. At both ends in the length direction of the conveying roller 2, there are brackets 3. The brackets 3 are fastened and fixed to the base 1 by bolts. An insulating gasket 4 is attached to the bottom surface of the bracket 3, and the insulating gasket 4 is attached to the top surface of the base 1. The insulating gasket 4 realizes the insulating isolation between the bracket 3 and the base 1. At the front and rear ends of the bottom of the bracket 3, there are outwardly protruding assembly points 301. The assembly points 301 provide installation positions for the bolts. The assembly points 301 are flush with the bottom surface of the bracket 3, so that the assembly points 301 and the bracket 3 are integrated. The insulating gasket 4 is attached to the assembly points 301. When the bolt is threadedly connected to the base 1 through the assembly points 301, through holes 10 are provided on both the assembly points 301 and the insulating gasket 4. The positions and specifications of the through holes 10 match, so that the bolt can pass through the through holes 10 and be tightened and fixed to the base 1;

[0031] Please refer to the attached Figure 2 attachment Figure 3 , an insulating bakelite 5 is sleeved outside the bolt. The insulating bakelite 5 is an electrical insulating material obtained by compound processing of a polymer synthetic material and a wood substrate, and has excellent insulation, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength and other characteristics. The insulating bakelite 5 is inserted into the through holes 10 on the assembly points 301 and the insulating gasket 4. The bottom surface of the insulating bakelite 5 is flush with the bottom surface of the insulating gasket 4. The insulating bakelite 5 insulates the bolt and does not affect the use of the insulating gasket 4, ensuring the reliability of use;

[0032] Please refer to the attached Figures 3-6 , a bearing seat 6 is installed at the top of the bracket 3. A support bearing 7 is assembled in the bearing seat 6. An insulating sleeve 8 is sleeved inside the support bearing 7. Both ends of the insulating sleeve 8 penetrate through the support bearing 7 and protrude from the outer wall of the bearing seat 6. The insulating sleeve 8 is respectively inserted into both ends of the conveying roller 2 to support the conveying roller 2. Key grooves 12 are provided at both ends of the conveying roller 2 and on the inner wall of the insulating sleeve 8. The positions of the key grooves 12 correspond. An assembly key 13 is inserted into the key grooves 12 in a matching manner. The assembly key 13 realizes the coaxial connection between the conveying roller 2 and the insulating sleeve 8, and facilitates the torque transmission between the insulating sleeve 8 and the conveying roller 2. The conveying roller 2 rotates along the support bearing 7 through the insulating sleeve 8, reducing the resistance of steel material conveying. By sleeving a sprocket on the side of the outer wall of the insulating sleeve 8 away from the conveying roller 2 and connecting it with a chain, the synchronous drive of the conveying roller 2 is realized, so that it rotates along the support bearing 7, thereby driving the steel material into the intermediate frequency furnace to perform intermediate frequency heating on the steel material, ensuring the smoothness of use. The insulating isolation between the insulating sleeve 8 and the conveying roller 2 avoids electric shock damage to the support bearing 7, ensuring the safety of use;

[0033] Please refer to the attached Figure 1 attachment Figures 4-5When the insulating sleeve 8 rotates along the support bearing 7, a hollow air outlet ring 9 is sleeved on the outside of the insulating sleeve 8. The air outlet ring 9 is fixedly installed on the end of the outer wall of the bearing seat 6 away from the conveying roller 2. A plurality of air outlet holes 901 are opened on the inner ring wall of the air outlet ring 9 along the circumferential direction. The outer wall of the air outlet ring 9 is connected to an air inlet pipe 902. The air inlet pipe 902 is connected to an external air source such as an air pump. The air pump delivers the airflow to the air outlet ring 9 and blows the outer surface of the insulating sleeve 8 straight through the air outlet holes 901, thereby performing heat dissipation treatment on the outer surface of the insulating sleeve 8, reducing its temperature, improving its insulation performance, and ensuring the insulation protection effect of the insulating sleeve 8 and the support shaft;

[0034] Please see the attached Figure 1 When the conveying roller 2 conveys steel, a supporting wheel 201 is mounted in the middle of its outer wall. The outer wall of the supporting wheel 201 is provided with an inner concave surface 2011. The steel is placed on the inner concave surface 2011 of the supporting wheel 201 for conveying. The inner concave surface 2011 prevents the steel from falling off the supporting wheel 201, thereby ensuring the reliability of steel transportation.

[0035] The working principle of the insulating support structure of the conveying roller of the medium frequency furnace is as follows: when the bracket 3 is tightened and fixed on the base 1 by bolts, the insulating gasket 4 at its bottom fits with the base 1, thereby insulating and isolating the bracket 3 from the base 1, and the protruding assembly point 301 set at the bottom of the bracket 3 provides an installation position for the bolt, and a through hole 10 is opened on the assembly point 301 and the insulating gasket 4 for bolt assembly. The outer sleeve of the bolt is provided with an insulating bakelite 5, and the insulating bakelite 5 is plugged into the through hole 10. The insulating bakelite 5 insulates the bolt, and the bolt passes through the insulating bakelite 5 and is threadedly connected to the base 1. The bracket 3 is tightened and fixed on the base 1 to ensure its firmness in use. The support bearing 7, assembled through the bearing seat 6 at the top of the bracket 3, is fitted with an insulating sleeve 8. The insulating sleeve 8 is respectively plugged into the two ends of the conveyor roller 2 to support the conveyor roller 2 and insulate the conveyor roller 2. Key slots 12 are provided on the side walls of the conveyor roller 2 and the inner wall of the insulating sleeve 8. The key slots 12 are equipped with assembly keys 13 to achieve torque transmission, making the conveyor roller 2 rotate effortlessly and smoothly, ensuring smooth steel transportation. Furthermore, an air outlet ring 9 is fixedly mounted on the end surface of the bearing seat 6 away from the conveyor roller 2 and is sleeved on the outside of the insulating sleeve 8. The air outlet ring 9 is connected to an external air source via an air inlet pipe 902, allowing air flow to dissipate heat from the insulating sleeve 8, ensuring the insulation performance of the insulating sleeve 8. This improves the insulation protection effect of the support bearing 7, ensures safe use, reduces the frequency of equipment failures and repairs, improves production efficiency, reduces direct production and maintenance costs, and increases the yield rate of steel balls.
