Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of carbon fiber processing technology, and in particular to a carbon fiber pre-oxidation furnace. Background Technology
[0002] Carbon fiber is a novel fiber material with a carbon content of over 95%, characterized by high strength and high modulus. The carbon fiber used in this technology is primarily pitch-based carbon fiber. During processing, the material requires pre-oxidation heating. For example, the Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN219824462U, entitled "A Carbon Fiber Processing Pre-oxidation Device," includes an operating box. Two mounting plates are fixedly connected to the bottom of the operating box. A drive roller and a driven roller located behind the drive roller are rotatably connected between the two mounting plates. An outer casing is provided outside the operating box. An air-gathering chamber is fixedly connected to the bottom of the operating box. Multiple evenly distributed air nozzles are connected to the upper surface of the air-gathering chamber. An air inlet pipe, which passes sequentially through the operating box and the outer casing, is connected to the bottom of the air-gathering chamber. Hot air enters the interior of the air-gathering chamber through the air inlet pipe and is then evenly sprayed out through the multiple air nozzles, ensuring that the hot air is evenly blown over the carbon fiber material.
[0003] For example, the Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN217869239U and title "A Pre-oxidation Furnace for Processing PAN-based Carbon Fiber Products" includes a furnace body with fiber inlets and outlets on both sides. An air inlet pipe is located at the bottom of the furnace body, and an air outlet pipe is located at the top. A fan is connected to the end of the air inlet pipe furthest from the furnace body. One end of the fan is connected to an electric heater, and one end of the electric heater is connected to the air outlet pipe. One end of the air inlet pipe extends into the furnace body and is connected to a corrugated pipe. The structures of these pre-oxidation furnaces are all very complex.
[0004] For example, the Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN219731149U and title "A Pre-oxidation Furnace for Pitch-Based Carbon Fiber" includes a furnace body. A first rotating plate is rotatably mounted on one side of the furnace body, and a second rotating plate is rotatably mounted on the side of the furnace body away from the first rotating plate. Two fixed frames are symmetrically mounted between the first and second rotating plates, and a support frame is slidably mounted between the two fixed frames. Multiple evenly distributed through holes are opened inside the support frame, and pitch-based carbon fiber filaments are slidably connected inside each of the through holes. A handle is fixedly mounted on the side of the support frame near the first rotating plate, and a motor is fixedly connected to the side of the second rotating plate away from the support frame. When the motor is started, the second rotating plate rotates, causing the support frame and the pitch-based carbon fiber filaments on it to rotate, so that both sides of the pitch-based carbon fiber filaments can come into contact with the oxygen above, and the contact time is almost equal, allowing the pitch-based carbon fiber filaments to be fully pre-oxidized. Its structure is relatively complex and difficult to control.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a carbon fiber pre-oxidation furnace with a simple structure. Utility Model Content
