Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic cylinder cover installation technology, specifically to a ceramic cylinder cover fastening device. Background Technology
[0002] Ceramics are widely used in sintering kilns due to their excellent high-temperature stability and lack of impurity precipitation. In some types of sintering kilns, ceramic cylinder covers need to be installed at both ends of the ceramic cylinder. However, current methods of connecting the ceramic cylinder to the cover have some problems. Traditional connection methods, such as threaded connections, are prone to cracking during tightening due to the brittleness of the ceramic material, thus affecting product quality and service life. While adhesive connections are relatively simple to operate, the performance of the adhesive is easily degraded in harsh environments such as high temperature and high humidity, leading to loose connections and poor sealing. Welding connections are almost unsuitable for ceramic liners because the high melting point of ceramics and the thermal stress during welding can easily cause cracks. In addition, some existing mechanical connection methods, such as snap-fit connections, often suffer from unstable connections and are prone to detachment, making it difficult to meet the product's usage requirements under different operating conditions.

In this way, the collar 4 can be fitted onto the outer circumference of the conical sleeve 8, with the inner wall of the collar 4 fitting snugly against the outer wall of the conical sleeve 8. The collar 4 has multiple through-holes 401 evenly distributed on its side wall; the ceramic cover 2 has multiple through-holes 201 evenly distributed on its outer circumference that are adapted to the collar mounting holes 401.

[0028] Preferably, when tightening the nut 6, the collar 4 is pushed to move and press against the tapered sleeve 8, and the angle α between the side wall of the tapered sleeve 8 and its axial direction is 15°.
[0029] Preferably, in order to protect the side wall of the embedding groove 101 from impact damage, and also to utilize the processing of the embedding groove 101, the bottom wall of the embedding groove 101 on the side away from the opening of the ceramic cylinder 1 is inclined towards the side wall of the ceramic cylinder 1 to form a slope 1011.
