Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of solution treatment furnaces, in particular to a heating furnace connector with stable connection. Background Art
[0002] Solution treatment is a heat treatment process in which the material or workpiece is first heated to an appropriate temperature and held for a sufficient time to fully dissolve the soluble phase. The material is then rapidly cooled to room temperature to produce a supersaturated solid solution. In existing solution treatment furnaces, two adjacent heating furnaces are connected by flanges. However, during operation, the furnaces expand and deform at high temperatures, and the two adjacent furnaces cannot maintain the same expansion direction. This can cause the flanges to misalign and break, leading to the escape of hot air from the furnaces. Utility Model Content
[0003] The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a heating furnace connector with a stable connection to solve the above technical problems and to ensure a stable connection between two adjacent heating furnaces.
[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0005] A heating furnace connector with a stable connection includes a sealing ring, a flange and a bellows. The flange is fixed to both ends of the bellows. The flange is installed at the feed port or discharge port of the heating furnace through the sealing ring. The bellows includes an arc portion and a connecting portion. The two arc portions are connected through the connecting portion.
[0006] As a preferred technical solution, the flange includes a mounting portion, a connecting portion and a positioning portion, the connecting portion is fixed on the mounting portion, the mounting portion is fixed to the heating furnace, and the end of the arc portion is fixed to the connecting portion.
[0007] As a preferred technical solution, the mounting portion is provided with long fixed holes, and the long fixed holes are arranged in order along the edge of the mounting portion.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution, the flange and the bellows are in a square frame shape.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the flange further includes a positioning portion, the positioning portion is fixed on the connecting portion, and the positioning portion is fixed to the base.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the positioning portion includes a positioning rod and a positioning seat, one end of the positioning rod is fixed on the connecting portion, and the other end is fixed to the positioning seat.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the positioning seat is provided with positioning holes, and the positioning holes are arranged in order on the positioning seat.
[0012] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the above-mentioned firmly connected heating furnace connector is provided with a bellows, the arc portion in the bellows can be stretched to match the feed port or discharge port of the heating furnace, and the bellows are made of 310S stainless steel. 310S stainless steel is an austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel with excellent oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance. Due to the high percentage of chromium and nickel, it has high creep strength and can continue to operate at high temperatures. It has good high temperature resistance. After the two adjacent heating furnaces are deformed under high temperature conditions, the bellows can be deformed as the flange installed on the heating furnace moves, avoiding breakage caused by high-temperature deformation of the heating furnace when the flange is directly installed, thereby avoiding leakage of hot gas.

The automatic loading mechanism 2 automatically loads the workpiece into the solution treatment furnace 3, the solution treatment furnace 3 heats the workpiece to a specified temperature and keeps it warm, and then the workpiece is moved to the quenching chamber 4 for quenching. After quenching, the workpiece is moved to the cooling chamber 5 for cooling, and then the cooled workpiece is taken out by an external manipulator, thereby avoiding direct manual loading or unloading, and avoiding direct contact between the operator and the solution treatment furnace 3, thereby protecting the operator from burns.

The lifting guide rail 223 and the lifting cylinder 221 are installed on the translation seat 213. The lifting slider 224 and the fork arm 23 are fixed to the lifting seat 222. The lifting slider 224 moves along the lifting guide rail 223. The lifting cylinder 221 drives the lifting seat 222 to move along the lifting guide rail 223, thereby driving the fork arm 23 to rise and fall.
[0023] The solution treatment furnace 3 includes a heating furnace 31, a conveyor belt 32 and a heating furnace connector 33. At least two heating furnaces 31 are arranged in sequence along the direction of the conveyor belt 32. Each adjacent two heating furnaces 31 are connected by a heating furnace connector 33. The conveyor belt 32 is passed through the heating furnace 31 and the heating furnace connector 33.
[0024] The heating furnace 31 includes a furnace body 311, a fan 312 and a heating rod 313. The fan 312 and the heating rod 313 are installed on the furnace body 311.

The inner surface of the furnace body 311 is covered with an insulation cotton layer 314. The material of the insulation cotton layer 314 is high-temperature resistant aluminum silicate wool. The thickness of the insulation surface layer 314 is at least 250 mm to reduce the heat dissipation rate in the furnace body 311, thereby ensuring that the temperature at various locations in the heating furnace 31 is equal.

The heating furnace connector 33 includes a sealing ring 333, a flange 331 and a bellows 332. The flange 331 is fixed at both ends of the bellows 332. The flange 331 is installed at the feed port or discharge port of the heating furnace 31 through the sealing ring 333. The sealing ring 333 can prevent the flange 331 from hard contact with the heating furnace 31 to produce a gap, so that the hot air is dissipated from the gap. The flange 331 includes a mounting portion 3311, a connecting portion 3312 and a positioning portion 3313. The connecting portion 3312 is fixed on the mounting portion 3311, and the positioning portion 3313 is fixed on the connecting portion 3312.

The arc portion 3321 can be stretched to Matching the feed port or discharge port of the heating furnace 31, the bellows 332 is made of 310S stainless steel. 310S stainless steel is an austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel with excellent oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance. Due to the high percentage of chromium and nickel, it has high creep strength and can continue to operate at high temperatures. It has good high temperature resistance. After the two adjacent heating furnaces 31 are deformed under high temperature conditions, the bellows 332 can be deformed as the flange 331 installed on the heating furnace 31 moves, thereby avoiding the high-temperature deformation of the heating furnace 31 and causing breakage when the flange 331 is directly installed, thereby avoiding hot gas leakage. The mounting portion 3311 is provided with a fixed long hole 3314, and the fixed long hole 3314 is arranged in order along the edge of the mounting portion 3311. The screws pass through the fixed long hole 3314 and the sealing ring 333 in turn and are connected and fixed with the feed port or the discharge port of the heating furnace 31, so as to match the different deformation states of the heating furnace 31, so that the conveyor belt 32 can stably transport the workpiece. The positioning portion 3313 includes a positioning rod 3315 and a positioning seat 3316. One end of the positioning rod 3315 is fixed on the connecting portion 3312, and the other end is fixed to the positioning seat 3316. The positioning seat 3316 is provided with a positioning hole 3317. The positioning holes 3317 are arranged in order on the positioning seat 3315.
