Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of combustion curing furnaces for powder coating, in particular to a curing furnace used in a coating production line. Background Art
[0002] In coating production lines, workpieces are typically transported using conveying devices such as power-and-free suspension chains or power-and-free floor chains. The conveyor tracks run through the curing oven, where the workpieces are transported to the oven for curing. This process melts and solidifies the powder coating on the workpiece surface, forming a dense protective layer. Traditional curing ovens generate high-temperature air in a combustion chamber, which is then blown into the oven by a fan. Curing occurs through convection heat exchange between the hot air and the workpieces. However, the high-temperature air generated by combustion can carry smoke and dust, which can easily contaminate the coating if not thoroughly removed. Furthermore, the hot air comes into direct contact with the workpieces. If the workpieces are stacked closely together, some workpieces may not be exposed to the hot air, or the hot air may not flow between the workpieces. This can lead to uneven curing, compromising the surface quality. Therefore, this convection-based hot air curing method is not clean, environmentally friendly, and produces suboptimal curing results. Utility Model Content

Therefore, the following specific embodiments and drawings are only illustrative of the technical solution of the present invention and should not be regarded as the entire present invention or as a limitation or restriction of the technical solution of the present invention.
[0033] according to Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, one embodiment of the present invention provides a curing oven 100 for a coating production line. The coating production line includes a conveying device 200 suitable for conveying a workpiece 300 . The conveying device 200 includes a conveying track 201 disposed in the curing oven 100 .
[0034] according to Figure 2As shown, the conveying device 200 includes a chain track, a conveyor chain, a drive mechanism, and an accumulation trolley 202. The conveyor track 201 and the chain track both pass through the baking chamber 102. The conveyor chain is movably mounted on the chain track and driven by the drive mechanism. The accumulation trolley 202 is movably mounted on the conveyor track 201 and driven by the conveyor chain. The accumulation trolley 202 is provided with a coating tool 203 suitable for supporting the workpiece 300. In this embodiment, the conveying device 200 is a accumulation-type ground chain. In other embodiments, the conveying device 200 may also be an accumulation-type suspended chain, without limitation.
[0035] according to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the curing oven 100 includes a furnace body 101, multiple heat radiation pipes 103, and a hot air generating device 107. The furnace body 101 has a baking chamber 102. Multiple heat radiation pipes 103 are laid out within the baking chamber 102. Each heat radiation pipe 103 includes a supply air duct 104, a return air duct 105 stacked on the supply air duct 104, and a connecting pipe 106 connecting the supply air duct 104 and the return air duct 105 at their ends. The hot air generating device 107, the supply air duct 104 of each heat radiation pipe 103, and the return air duct 105 of each heat radiation pipe 103 are sequentially connected to form a path for hot air circulation.
[0036] according to Figure 3 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, each heat radiation pipe 103 extends along a first direction, and multiple heat radiation pipes 103 are arranged along a second direction different from the first direction.

One end of the first hot air duct 110 is connected to the heating chamber 113, and the other end is connected to the air supply duct 104 of each heat radiation duct 103 in an airflow manner. One end of the second hot air duct 111 is connected to the heating chamber 113, and the other end is connected to the return air duct 105 of each heat radiation duct 103 in an airflow manner.
[0040] In this embodiment, the heating source 109 is a gas burner and the circulating fan 112 is a centrifugal fan. In other embodiments, the heating source 109 may also be other fuel burners, such as an oil burner, and the circulating fan 112 may also be an air pump, an axial flow fan, etc., without specific limitation.
[0041] according to Figure 5 、 Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the hot air generating device 107 also includes a first distribution pipe 114, the first distribution pipe 114 includes a first air inlet 115 and multiple first air outlets 116, the first air inlet 115 is connected to the first hot air pipe 110, and each first air outlet 116 is connected to the air supply pipe 104 of each heat radiation pipe 103.
