Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of quenching equipment, specifically relating to a gas-protected water-based quenching device. Background Technology
[0002] A gas-protected water-based quenching device is an industrial equipment used for the quenching treatment of metal workpieces. Quenching is a heat treatment process that alters the physical and mechanical properties of a workpiece, such as hardness, strength, and toughness, by rapidly cooling the workpiece. The gas-protected water-based quenching device is characterized by combining gas protection and water-based cooling to improve the quality and efficiency of the quenching process.
[0003] The prior art, in the document with publication number CN202323389987.4, discloses a quenching and cooling device. The feeding component is used to transport new materials, and the rotating stirring component is used to stir the coolant in the cooling tank, so that the temperature of the coolant in the cooling tank is evenly distributed in every place, which facilitates uniform cooling of the metal knitting and ensures the performance of the quenched metal knitting.
[0004] However, in practice, the heat treatment process of metal items often relies on manual operation, which not only leads to low production efficiency, but also poses a high safety risk due to the need to be exposed to high-temperature environments during operation. If the operation is not careful, workers may suffer burns or other injuries. In addition, during the metal cooling stage, the common practice is to directly immerse the hot workpiece in a liquid cooling tank. This cooling method is prone to coolant contamination. As the usage time increases, a large amount of impurities will accumulate in the coolant, affecting the cooling effect and workpiece quality, and also increasing the frequency of maintenance and coolant replacement. Therefore, a gas-protected water-based quenching device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the spray assembly further includes a spray pipe inserted into the surface of the fixed plate, a sprayer communicating with the end of the spray pipe, and a collection frame disposed below the fixed plate.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the collection frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective shell, and the connecting pipe is connected to the sprayer.

[0025] Example
[0026] Reference Figures 1-4 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides a gas-protected water-based quenching device, comprising:
[0027] The quenching mechanism 100 includes a fixed frame 101, an operation box 102 fixedly installed on the surface of the fixed frame 101, an operation screen 103 installed on the side surface of the operation box 102, a drive motor 104 adapted to be installed at the bottom of the operation box 102, and a moving component 105 used in conjunction with the operation box 102 and having a transmission function.
[0028] The cooling mechanism 200 includes a protective shell 201, a spray assembly 202 disposed in the inner cavity of the protective shell 201, a connecting pipe 203 connected to the bottom of the spray assembly 202, a pump body 204 adapted to be installed at the end of the connecting pipe 203, a liquid storage tank 205 connected to the output end of the pump body 204, and a vent 206 used in conjunction with the protective shell 201.
[0029] The control box 102 includes a box body 102a, an operation slot 102b opened in the inner cavity of the box body 102a, a placement block 102c fixedly installed on the inner wall of the operation slot 102b, and a protective door 102d snapped onto the side wall of the box body 102a. The inner wall of the control box 102 is provided with a heating element, which is adjusted by the control panel 103.
[0030] Specifically, the operator sets the temperature of the heating element through the operation screen 103 and places the workpiece on the placement block 102c in the operation slot 102b inside the operation box 102. Then, the protective door 102d is closed, the drive motor 104 is started, and the workpiece is conveyed to the heating area for heating treatment through the moving component 105. After heating, the workpiece is conveyed to the cooling mechanism 200. The spray component 202 draws coolant from the storage tank 205 under the action of the pump body 204 and sprays the workpiece evenly through the spray pipe 202e and the sprayer 202f. At the same time, the vent 206 maintains the air pressure balance inside and outside the protective shell 201 to ensure the gas protection effect. After cooling, the workpiece recovers the coolant through the collection frame 202g, completing the entire quenching process.
[0031] The moving assembly 105 includes a protective shell 105a, a conveyor frame 105b connected to the outlet of the housing 102a, and a roller 105c rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the conveyor frame 105b.
[0032] The spray assembly 202 includes a placement rod 202a fixedly installed on the inner wall of the protective shell 201, a contact plate 202b slidably connected to the surface of the placement rod 202a, a fixing rod 202c fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the protective shell 201, and a fixing plate 202d inserted into the side surface of the fixing rod 202c.
[0033] The spray assembly 202 also includes a spray pipe 202e inserted into the surface of the fixed plate 202d, a sprayer 202f communicating with the end of the spray pipe 202e, and a collection frame 202g disposed below the fixed plate 202d. The collection frame 202g is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective shell 201, and the connecting pipe 203 is communicating with the sprayer 202f.
[0034] It should be noted that the workpiece is first placed in the protective shell 105a of the moving assembly 105. Through the action of the conveyor frame 105b and the roller 105c, the workpiece is smoothly conveyed to the heating area of the operating box 102. Inside the operating box 102, the heating element heats the workpiece. The operating screen 103 is used to monitor and adjust the heating process. After heating is completed, the workpiece continues to be conveyed by the moving assembly 105 to the spray assembly 202 of the cooling mechanism 200. The contact plate 202b slides on the placement rod 202a. The spray pipe 202e performs water-based quenching and cooling on the workpiece through the sprayer 202f. The coolant is drawn from the storage tank 205 and sprayed through the connecting pipe 203. The cooled liquid is collected by the collection frame 202g to avoid spillage of the coolant as much as possible.
[0035] In use, the operator sets the heating temperature through the operation screen 103 and places the workpiece in the protective shell 105a of the moving component 105. The workpiece is then conveyed to the heating area of the operation box 102 by the conveyor frame 105b and the roller 105c. Inside the operation box 102, the heating element heats the workpiece, while the operation screen 103 monitors the heating process. After heating, the workpiece is conveyed by the moving component 105 to the spray component 202 of the cooling mechanism 200. The sprayer 202f performs uniform water-based quenching and cooling on the workpiece through the spray pipe 202e. The coolant is drawn from the storage tank 205 by the pump body 204 and transported to the sprayer 202f through the connecting pipe 203. The vent 206 maintains the air pressure balance inside the protective shell 201 to ensure the gas protection effect. The cooled liquid is collected by the collection frame 202g to reduce the spillage and waste of coolant, thus completing an efficient, uniform and environmentally friendly quenching process.
[0036] In summary, the quenching mechanism 100 ensures uniform heating and cooling of the workpiece, preventing deformation or cracking caused by uneven temperature. The conveying system of the moving component 105 ensures smooth movement of the workpiece during heating and cooling, reducing processing time. The spray component 202 achieves efficient cooling, while the collection frame 202g effectively recovers coolant, reducing resource waste and environmental pollution. The vent holes 206 maintain the air pressure balance inside and outside the protective shell 201, enhancing the gas protection effect and thus improving the quenching quality.
