[0024] Figure 2 A top view of the opening and closing mechanism for the large-diameter vacuum furnace cover of the utility model embodiment;

[0025] The components represented by the reference numerals in the drawings are:

[0026] The utility model discloses: 1, hinge seat, 2, rotation limit switch, 3, rotation axis, 4, rotation arm, 5, guide rod, 6, electric lift, 7, rotation wheel group, 8, drive reduction motor, 9, vacuum furnace body, 10, arc track, 11, furnace cover, 12, lifting limit switch, 13, track support column. Specific implementation

[0027] As Figure 1 And Figure 2 The left side of the main part rotation arm 4 of the opening and closing mechanism for the large-diameter vacuum furnace cover is connected with the vacuum furnace body 9 by hinge seat 1 through rotation axis 3, the right side of rotation arm 4 is connected with rotation wheel group 7, rotation wheel group 7 is placed on arc track 10, arc track 10 is arranged in 125 degrees rotation angle along the opening direction of furnace cover 11, arc track 10 is fixed at one end on vacuum furnace body 9, and the other positions are fixed by track support column 13 vertically placed on the ground, so that arc track 10 is stably placed on the arc plane of furnace cover 11 rotation.

[0028] Rotation driving device for driving rotation wheel group 7 to rotate is arranged on rotation arm 4, and the rotation driving device is drive reduction motor 8 fixedly arranged on rotation arm 4.

[0029] Hinge seat 1 is fixedly arranged on vacuum furnace body 9, rotation axis 3 is fixedly connected at one end of rotation arm 4, and rotation axis 3 is hinged on hinge seat 1, and rotation limit switch 2 for detecting whether rotation arm 4 rotates to position is fixedly arranged on hinge seat 1.

[0030] Furnace cover lifting driving device is arranged on rotation arm 4, and the furnace cover lifting driving device includes electric lift 6 fixedly arranged on rotation arm 4, and furnace cover 11 is fixed at the telescopic end of electric lift 6, a plurality of guide rods 5 are fixedly arranged on the top of furnace cover 11, guide holes matched with guide rods 5 are arranged on rotation arm 4, and lifting limit switch 12 for detecting whether furnace cover 11 lifts to position is installed on rotation arm 4.

[0031] When the furnace cover 11 needs to be opened, because there are other heat preservation screens inside the furnace cover 11 for heat preservation of the vacuum furnace, and the heat preservation screens are protruding from the flange of the furnace cover 11 inside the vacuum furnace body 9, in order to realize the opening and rotation of the furnace cover 11, the furnace cover 11 needs to be lifted to a certain height by the electric elevator 6 installed on the selection arm 4, so that the heat preservation screen fixed on the furnace cover 11 is lifted to be higher than the top flange surface of the vacuum furnace body 9. The lifting height of the furnace cover 11 by the electric elevator 6 is controlled by the lifting limit switch 12. In order to prevent the furnace cover 11 from rotating during lifting, two guide rods 5 are specially added to limit the possible rotation of the furnace cover 11 during lifting. When the required lifting height is reached, the lifting limit switch 12 sends a signal to the control system, the control system immediately stops the work of the electric elevator 6, and automatically locks, so that the furnace cover 11 is in a suspended state. Next, the driving reduction motor 8 on the right side of the rotating arm 4 drives the rotating wheel set 7 to rotate around the rotating shaft 3 on the left side of the rotating arm 4. The driving reduction motor 8 is provided with a frequency converter, and the rotation speed can be adjusted by adjusting the speed. When the rotation angle reaches 125 degrees, that is, the furnace cover 11 is completely rotated in place, the sensing device on the rotation limit switch 2 is sensed, and the signal is transmitted to the control system, so that the driving reduction motor 8 stops working, and the furnace cover 11 is rotated in place. The opening stage of the whole furnace cover 11 is completed.

[0032] When the furnace cover 11 needs to be closed, the driving reduction motor 8 on the right side of the rotating arm 4 drives the rotating wheel set 7 to rotate in the opposite direction of the opening direction, so as to rotate around the rotating shaft 3 on the left side of the rotating arm 4. When the rotating arm 4 reversely rotates the furnace cover 11 by an angle of-125 degrees, that is, the furnace cover 11 is completely rotated in place, the sensing device on the rotation limit switch 2 is sensed, and the signal is transmitted to the control system, so that the driving reduction motor 8 stops working, and the furnace cover 11 is rotated in place. At this time, the electric elevator 6 is opened to lower the furnace cover 11 to a fixed height. When the furnace cover 11 contacts the top flange surface of the vacuum furnace body 9, the lifting limit switch 12 senses that the furnace cover 11 is lowered in place. At this time, the lifting limit switch 12 sends a signal to the control system, the control system immediately stops the work of the electric elevator 6, and automatically locks, so that the furnace cover 11 is in contact with the top flange of the vacuum furnace body 9. Thus, the closing stage of the whole furnace cover 11 is completed.

[0033] Because the weight of the furnace cover 11 is borne by the rotating shafts 3 and the rotating wheel sets 7 on both sides of the rotating arm 4, and the stress on both sides is uniform, the problem of inconvenient opening and closing of the large-diameter vacuum furnace cover due to its large diameter and heavy weight is solved.
