[0035] The production method of silicon carbide is as follows: A fixed amount of silicon carbide seed crystals are added to a fluidized bed, and the fluidized bed heater is turned on to raise the internal temperature to the reaction temperature. After a period of time, raw material gas is transported into the fluidized bed from the bottom to carry out the reaction. Silicon carbide particles can then grow in the fluidized bed and are finally collected. To avoid the raw material gas at room temperature affecting the reaction rate, the raw material gas needs to be preheated during this process. Some current gas preheating devices have relatively complex structures and low heating efficiency. Therefore, this application proposes a preheating device that can improve heating efficiency.

[0036] The preheating device of this application will be described in detail below through the following embodiments.

[0037] Example 1:

[0038] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment proposes a raw material preheating device for silicon carbide production, including: an outer tube 1, with an inlet 11 and an outlet 12 formed in the middle of both ends respectively; an inner tube 2, disposed inside the outer tube 1 and extending along the length of the outer tube 1, with multiple inner tubes 2 arranged circumferentially around the inner wall of the outer tube 1; and a heating unit 3, having several units, respectively disposed inside each inner tube 2;

[0039] Among them, after the inner tubes 2 are enclosed, a preheating channel 4 is formed in the middle. The inlet 11 and outlet 12 of the outer tube 1 and the preheating channel 4 are on the same straight line. The outer walls of the inner tubes 2 abut against each other in sequence, so that the preheating channel 4 is a sealed channel in the circumferential direction.

[0040] The outer tube 1 is cylindrical, with its inlet 11 and outlet 12 at both ends having a cylindrical structure to facilitate pipe connection; the inner tube 2 is cylindrical. The inner tube 2 serves as the outer shell structure for installing the heating unit 3. Furthermore, by arranging the inner tubes 2 around the perimeter, a chamber is formed in the middle of each inner tube 2. This chamber is the preheating channel 4. Gas enters through the inlet 11 on the outer tube 1, then passes through the preheating channel 4, is preheated within the preheating channel 4, and finally exits from the outlet 12 on the outer tube 1.

[0041] It should be noted that by setting the inlet 11, outlet 12 and preheating channel 4 on the same straight line, this embodiment not only effectively improves its exhaust performance, but also effectively improves the gas heating effect by arranging the heating unit 3 around the preheating channel 4, and also makes the gas heated evenly.

[0042] It should be noted that, in order to ensure the inner diameter of the preheating channel 4, the number of inner tubes 2 is set to at least five, and each inner tube 2 is evenly distributed, and the outer walls of adjacent inner tubes 2 abut against each other in sequence, so that the preheating channel 4 is a sealed channel in the circumferential direction.

[0043] It should be noted that the inner tube 2 is a heat-conducting tube made of heat-conducting material, so as to transfer the heat generated by the heating unit 3 to the preheating channel 4, thereby heating the gas in the preheating channel 4.

[0044] Example 2:

[0045] This embodiment is a further improvement based on Embodiment 1.

[0046] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, it also includes: a mounting bracket 5, used to connect and fix each inner tube 2;

[0047] The mounting bracket 5 has several mounting holes, and the end of the inner tube 2 passes through the mounting holes.

[0048] In order to securely install the inner tube 2 inside the outer tube 1, a mounting bracket 5 is provided. Mounting holes are made on the mounting bracket 5, and the end of the inner tube 2 is then inserted into the mounting hole of the mounting bracket 5. This ensures that the inner tubes 2 do not become loose, thus guaranteeing the stability of the preheating channel 4.

[0049] It should be noted that the mounting bracket 5 has a disc-shaped structure, and the mounting holes are arranged along the circumferential direction of the disc. The number of mounting holes is the same as the number of inner tubes 2.

[0050] It should be noted that there is an annular groove 21 radially inwardly opened on the outer wall of the end of the inner tube 2. After the end of the inner tube 2 passes through the mounting hole of the mounting bracket 5, it abuts against the mounting bracket 5.

[0051] In this embodiment, the optimized mounting bracket 5 consists of two sets, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the inner tube 2. By providing two sets of mounting brackets 5, the stability between the inner tubes 2 is improved, and the mounting brackets 5 abut against the inner wall of the outer tube 1.

[0052] In this embodiment, an optimized version further includes a connecting rod 6 for connecting the two mounting brackets 5, thereby fixing the two mounting brackets 5 to both ends of the inner tube 2. Each inner tube 2 is securely mounted on the mounting bracket 5, and the mounting bracket 5 can be directly embedded into the inner tube 2 when installed inside the outer tube 1. However, this method makes the mounting bracket 5 easy to move inside the outer tube 1. Therefore, a connecting rod 6 is provided. The connecting rod 6 is a detachable structure, and the two mounting brackets 5 are connected by the connecting rod 6. In this way, the two mounting brackets 5 can be fixed, which not only increases the firmness of the installation between the mounting bracket 5 and the inner tube 2, but also ensures the stability of the mounting bracket 5 inside the outer tube 1.

[0053] It should be noted that the outlet 12 on the outer tube 1 is a detachable conical structure, which is installed on the outer tube 1 by means of threaded connection. When installing the internal structure of the preheating device, the outlet 12 is removed first, and then the inner tube 2, mounting bracket 5 and other structures are inserted into the outer tube. After the outlet 12 is installed on the outer tube 1, the inner port of the outlet 12 is pressed against the inner tube 2 and the mounting bracket 5 so that it will not move along the length direction of the outer tube 1.

[0054] In this embodiment, there are two connecting rods 6, which are mounted on the outer mounting bracket 5. The connection strength is improved by using two connecting rods 6.

[0055] It should be noted that the connecting rod 6 is a screw structure, with internal threaded holes on the mounting bracket 5. Both ends of the connecting rod 6 are threaded into the internal threaded holes of the two mounting brackets 5 respectively. For ease of installation, the connecting rod 6 is designed as a T-shaped screw, and the end of the T-shaped screw has a ring-shaped structure, making it easy for workers to rotate by hand.

[0056] Example 3:

[0057] This embodiment is a further improvement based on any of the above embodiments.

[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the heating unit 3 includes: a sleeve 31; and a heater 32, disposed inside the sleeve 31, for providing heat to heat the gas located in the preheating channel 4.

[0059] The heater 32 mainly consists of a long strip-shaped ceramic coil frame 321, on which a heating wire 322 is wound and a controller is used to control the heating temperature of the heating wire 322. A temperature sensor is installed on the outer wall of the sleeve 31 to detect the temperature of the inner tube 2. The controller controls the current passing through the heating wire 322 based on the temperature signal detected by the temperature sensor, thereby controlling the heating temperature of the heating wire 322.

[0060] The various embodiments of this disclosure have been described above. These descriptions are exemplary and not exhaustive, nor are they limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The terminology used herein is chosen to best explain the principles, practical application, or improvement of the technology in the market, or to enable others skilled in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
