[0004] The aforementioned cooling device utilizes a lifting quenching and cooling mechanism to assist metal in entering and exiting the quenching tank. However, during the quenching process, the water volume in the quenching tank gradually evaporates, causing the water level within the quenching tank to drop, thus affecting the cooling effect of the metal parts. Therefore, we provide a cooling device for heat treatment of metal parts. Utility Model Content

After the quenching is completed, the loading frame 7 is lifted up by the hydraulic cylinder 4 and separated from the cooling water pool 2. Then, the first valve 15 is opened to drain the water in the cooling water pool 2 through the drain pipe 14 and flow into the water receiving box 3. The water is guided inside the water receiving box 3 by three staggered water guide inclined plates 17, so that the water discharge path is smooth. The cooling water in the cooling tank 2 is extended to facilitate the water to come into contact with the air and cool to room temperature during its flow. After the water enters the water receiving tank 3, the water pump 12 is turned on to extract the water in the water receiving tank 3 and inject it back into the cooling water pool 2 through the water injection pipe 13. At this time, the remaining water in the cooling water pool 2 is determined according to the water level alignment of the indicator 23 and the measuring scale 11. When the water volume is insufficient, the second valve 16 is opened, and the cooling water temporarily stored in the water injection bucket 9 is injected into the cooling water pool 2 through the guide pipe 10 to supplement the water volume, thereby improving the sustainability of the use of the cooling device and completing the use of the cooling device for heat treatment of metal parts.
