TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the air cooling system technical field of vacuum heat treatment equipment, specifically relates to a large -scale vacuum high pressure gas quenching equipment quick air cooling system. BACKGROUND
[0002] Vacuum high pressure gas quenching is an advanced basic process using high pressure inert gas as cooling medium to cool workpiece quickly, which has the advantages of good quenching uniformity, small workpiece deformation, high surface finish and high production efficiency, and is one of the core processes for manufacturing key components of high-end equipment. The cooling technology used by the quick air cooling system, as the core functional module of the vacuum high pressure gas quenching equipment, is crucial to ensure the heat treatment process production efficiency of the entire vacuum high pressure gas quenching equipment and the workpiece organization performance.
[0003] When existing vacuum high pressure gas quenching equipment processes super-long pipe fittings and multiple thin-walled cylindrical pipe fittings, the heat treatment deformation of the high pressure gas quenching heat treatment process is usually difficult to control. Vacuum high pressure gas quenching generally adopts 360° air cooling along the circumferential direction, one-way air cooling of airflow, and up-and-down alternating air cooling of airflow. The 360° air cooling along the circumferential direction easily causes the cooling speed of the outer edge workpiece to be fast and the cooling speed of the inner center workpiece to be slow. The one-way air cooling of airflow easily causes the cooling speed of the workpiece along the direction of the cooling airflow to be uneven. The up-and-down alternating air cooling of airflow also has the problem of slow cooling speed of the middle part of the workpiece and fast cooling speed of the two ends. These cooling methods all easily cause the organization and performance of the two sides of a single workpiece and the space between multiple workpieces to be uneven, resulting in poor hardness uniformity of the workpiece and large thermal stress deformation.
