TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of metal material processing, and particularly relates to a metal material vacuum degassing device. BACKGROUND
[0002] The metal material vacuum degassing device is mainly used for processing various metal samples under vacuum conditions to avoid the influence of external air and pollutants on the samples, so that the surface cleanliness and the reliability of detection results are ensured. In the field of metal material processing, the surface cleanliness of samples has a crucial influence on the detection results of trace or trace impurity elements. The pollution sources mainly include impurities introduced in the sample preparation process and gas molecules adsorbed on the sample surface in the sample storage process.
[0003] In the preparation process, the use of turning coolant and the sample surface oxidation phenomenon will lead to the introduction of impurities, thereby affecting the purity of the sample. In the sample storage stage, oxygen, carbon dioxide and moisture in the air will be adsorbed on the sample surface due to the existence of van der Waals force. These adsorbed gas not only causes interference to the detection results of gas elements, but also may affect the mechanical properties of parts made of samples. Therefore, in order to reduce the interference of surface pollution, the sample pretreatment usually adopts the methods of removing oil stains by acetone ultrasonic cleaning and removing the oxidation layer by file polishing. However, these traditional methods cannot effectively remove the gas molecules adsorbed on the sample surface, affecting the detection accuracy and material performance.
[0004] The metal material vacuum degassing device can greatly reduce surface pollution by deeply cleaning the sample surface, ensure the detection accuracy and improve the material performance stability. However, the existing vacuum degassing treatment technology has not realized automation, and the whole operation process needs 1-2 workers to continuously perform according to the operation specification. This not only consumes a large amount of human resources, but also leads to low production efficiency, and it is difficult to meet the efficient and accurate modern production demand.
[0005] In summary, how to design an efficient and automatic metal material vacuum degassing device to solve the problems of low efficiency and limited precision of traditional manual operation has become a technical problem to be solved. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

The center of the vacuum pipeline is a vacuum four-way pipe fitting 10, the lower end of the vacuum four-way pipe fitting 10 is connected with the fixed end of the vacuum rotary joint 5, the left and right ends of the vacuum four-way pipe fitting 10 are respectively connected with a first vacuum two-way valve 11, the other end of the first vacuum two-way valve 11 is connected with a vacuum elbow 12, and the tail end of the vacuum elbow 12 is connected with a vacuum bellows 13 to provide installation and debugging allowance, one end of one of the vacuum bellows 13 is connected with the mechanical pump, and the other vacuum bellows 13 is connected with the molecular pump. The upper end of the vacuum four-way pipe fitting 10 is connected with a vacuum three-way pipe fitting 14, one end of the vacuum three-way pipe fitting 14 is connected with a vacuum gauge 15 as a vacuum degree monitoring device, and the other end of the vacuum three-way pipe fitting 14 is connected with a second vacuum two-way valve, one end of the second vacuum two-way valve is connected with a variable diameter pipe fitting 16 to reduce the diameter of the pipeline, and the tail end of the variable diameter pipe fitting 16 is connected with the atmosphere.
[0033] The device rear end is an electrical control assembly. The PLC control unit 17 is the core control unit of a single device. The first needle valve 18 controls the output flow of mixed gas. The input end of the first needle valve 18 is mixed with oxygen and propane. The two gases are mixed through a three-way pipe fitting 19. The other two ends of the three-way pipe fitting 19 are connected to two anti-backfire valves 20. The input flow of oxygen and propane is controlled through a second needle valve 21.

At the same time, control the first servo motor 9 to make the test tube 1 rotate through the PLC control unit 17. When the test tube 1 is heated to a certain degree, the heated part of the test tube 1 will soften and be elongated due to the influence of gravity. When the test tube 1 contacts the bottom of the copper base 34, the upper part of the test tube 1 is still rotating, which causes the flame melting position to be inwardly recessed to leave the flame baking, thereby completing the sealing. After the sealing is completed, the copper base 34 returns to the default position, and the two-way valve 11 connected to the atmosphere is opened, so that the test tube 1 can be taken out.
[0037] When multiple single devices are connected in parallel, the basic operation process is consistent, and the PLC control unit 17 of each device will communicate to confirm whether the molecular pump can intervene in the work to prevent the molecular pump from being impacted. When multiple devices are connected in parallel, one of the vacuum bellows 13 of each device needs to be connected in parallel to the mechanical pump, and the other vacuum bellows 13 needs to be connected in parallel to the molecular pump.
[0038] Finally, it should be pointed out that: the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, and not to limit it. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing examples, those skilled in the art should understand that: it can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing examples, or make equivalent replacement for part of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
