Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of sling equipment in a heat treatment environment, in particular to a sling for heat treatment of shaft products. Background Art

[0002] Pit-type furnaces are cyclically operated furnaces suitable for heat treatment of rods and long shafts. Pit-type furnaces feature a cylindrical, deep well, into which workpieces are loaded vertically by a dedicated crane for heating. Depending on the application requirements, pit-type furnaces can be categorized into three types: high-temperature, medium-temperature, and low-temperature. High-temperature pit-type furnaces can reach a maximum temperature of 1200°C, while medium-temperature pit-type furnaces typically reach a maximum temperature of around 950°C and low-temperature pit-type furnaces around 650°C.

[0003] Heat treatment is a metal thermal processing process that heats, holds, and cools materials in a solid state to achieve the desired microstructure and properties. Heat treatment often requires a loading and unloading mechanism to lift the workpiece. Sometimes, the lifting fixture must be repeatedly heated and cooled in a furnace (20-1000°C), which can easily cause deformation and even cracking.

[0004] Currently, to meet technical and safety requirements during heat treatment of shaft products, a hole needs to be drilled on the shaft product as a lifting hole, which reduces product utilization. Alternatively, a D-ring needs to be welded on the shaft product as a lifting hole. However, the D-ring is limited by the product weight, and welding affects product quality, and there is a risk of it falling during heat treatment. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model is intended to provide a heat treatment hanger for shaft products to solve the problems of low product utilization caused by drilling holes during heat treatment of existing shaft products, or affecting product quality and posing a risk of falling due to welding additional D-rings.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this program are:

[0010] Before heat treating shaft products, insert them into the through-holes of the hoist body, secure them with the clamps, and lift them using the lifting holes.

[0019] Figure 2 This is a front view of an embodiment of the heat treatment hanger for shaft products of the utility model;

[0020] Figure 3 This is a top view of the semicircular key in the embodiment of the heat treatment hanger for shaft products of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following is further explained in detail through specific implementation methods.

[0022] The reference numerals in the drawings of the specification include: workpiece 1, clamping bolt 2, clamping nut 3, hanger body 4, semicircular key 5, positioning sleeve 6, clamping plate 7, lifting hole 8, slot 9, large edge 10, small edge 11.

[0023] Example

[0024] Heat treatment hangers for shaft products, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown: it includes a sling body 4, which can be a cylinder, a square cylinder, or other shapes that can be inserted into the pit furnace.

[0025] The sling body 4 has a through-hole extending along its central axis. The inner wall of the through-hole is integrally formed with several levels of ridges, each with unequal diameters. The ridges are arranged in two stages: a large ridge 10 and a small ridge 11. The diameter of the large ridge 10 ranges from 200-500mm, while the diameter of the small ridge 11 is 20-100mm larger than the outer diameter of the shaft product. The spacing between the large ridge 10 and the small ridge 11 ranges from 50-300mm, representing the distance between the end faces of the large ridge 10 and the small ridge 11. The diameters of the large ridge 10 and the small ridge 11, as well as the spacing between them, are determined based on the shaft product being processed.

[0026] A clamping piece adapted to convex edges of different diameters and used to clamp and fix shaft products is embedded in the through hole. A lifting hole is opened on the large end side of the through hole of the sling body 4, and the diameter of the lifting hole is set according to actual needs.

[0027] The clamping member includes a semicircular key 5 that can be inserted into the slot 9 on the shaft product. To prevent deformation of the tooling during heat treatment, the semicircular key 5 is made of heat-resistant stainless steel to ensure repeated use. The slot 9 on the shaft product is formed by pre-forging or metal processing. Since only 5-20mm of the outer diameter is processed, it does not affect the use of the forging body. Long shaft workpieces have a corresponding processing allowance, and the end size of long shaft workpieces is usually slightly smaller than the body. Compared with the conventional end-opening hoisting method, the pre-processing slot 9 method damages the workpiece 1 body. The additional sawing process is required from the opening after heat treatment to the end of the forging to cut off the workpiece, making it impossible to use normally. The slot 9 in this solution only damages a small portion of the outer diameter of the workpiece 1. This solution can be used for other purposes without sawing off the end of the workpiece 1, thereby improving the workpiece utilization rate of shaft products. The semicircular key 5 rests on the small edge 11. Two semicircular keys 5 are provided and can form a ring to fit into the slot 9 of the product.

[0028] The inner diameter of the semicircular key 5 is the same as the outer diameter of the slot 9 on the shaft product, and the outer diameter of the semicircular key 5 is the same as the inner diameter of the small edge 11.

[0029] The clamping member also includes a pressure plate 7 that can be placed on the large edge 10. A circular locating sleeve 6 is pressed between the pressure plate 7 and the semicircular key 5. There is a gap between the inner diameter of the locating sleeve 6 and the outer diameter of the shaft product, and there is a gap between the outer diameter of the locating sleeve 6 and the inner diameter of the small edge 11. The specific size of the gap is set based on the principle of convenient use. The length of the locating sleeve 6 is the distance between the pressure plate 7 and the semicircular key 5 when the pressure plate 7 is pressed against the semicircular key 5.

[0030] The clamping plate 7 is connected to a plurality of bolt assemblies that pass through the large edge 10 and extend out of the sling body 4. Six bolt assemblies are provided. The bolt assemblies include a clamping bolt 2 and a clamping nut 3. The bolt assembly passes through the large edge 10 toward the side of the small edge 11 and extends out of the sling body 4. The inner diameter of the positioning sleeve 6 is larger than the inner diameter of the semicircular key 5.

[0031] The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0032] When in use, first put the sling body 4 on the workpiece 1, which is a shaft product, and Figure 1 Move the sling body 4 to the left end to expose the slot 9 on the workpiece 1; install the two semicircular card keys 5 in the slot 9 on the workpiece 1, and keep the semicircular card keys 5 located in the small edge 11; Figure 1 Move the sling body 4 to the rightmost end until it encloses the semicircular key 5 and cannot be moved. Install the positioning sleeve 6 on the right side of the semicircular key 5. Install the clamping plate 7 on the side of the large edge 10. Then, use the clamping bolt 2 and the clamping nut 3 to firmly connect the clamping plate 7 and the sling body 4. Use the lifting holes 8 on the sling body 4 to connect through the semicircular key 5 to lift the workpiece 1 for heat treatment.

[0033] After the heat treatment, it is only necessary to remove the clamping bolt 2 and the clamping nut 3, and then remove the positioning sleeve 6 and the clamping plate 7 one by one; move the spreader body 4 to the left to expose and take out the semicircular key 5, and the spreader body 4 can be easily removed.

[0034] The sling body 4 of this embodiment can stably fix the workpiece 1 and prevent the sling body 4 from falling off during the lifting process.

[0035] The above is only an embodiment of the present invention, and the commonly known specific structures and characteristics of the scheme are not described in detail here. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the structure of the present invention, and these should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention. These will not affect the effect of the implementation of the present invention and the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed by this application shall be based on the content of its claims, and the specific implementation methods and other records in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
