It can achieve a high vacuum level and precise temperature control of ±1℃. It is widely used in materials research and development, aerospace, and other fields for processes such as sintering, annealing, and brazing, effectively improving material properties.
[0003] High-temperature metal materials in a vacuum furnace flow into the heating element of the furnace body through the feed pipe. Due to the excessively high temperature inside the heating element (>1200°C), the liquid high-temperature metal materials continuously erode the outlet of the feed pipe. After a period of time, the wall of the feed pipe is penetrated, and the liquid materials spill out and cannot flow to the designated location. Therefore, this utility model proposes a high-temperature vacuum furnace feeding device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0020] according to Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3 and 4, this embodiment proposes a high-temperature vacuum furnace feeding device, including a housing 1, a feeding pipe 4, and a vacuum pipe 6. A bottom cover 3 is hinged to one side of the bottom of the housing 1 via a rotating shaft 2. The feeding pipe 4 is fixedly installed on the right side of the housing 1. A hopper 5 is provided at the top of the right end of the feeding pipe 4. The vacuum pipe 6 is connected to the top of the right side of the housing 1, and a vacuuming mechanism matching the vacuum pipe 6 is provided on the back side of the housing 1. An opening and closing mechanism is provided between the housing 1 and the bottom cover 3. The housing 1 is fixedly installed on the outside of the high-temperature vacuum furnace, and the bottom of the housing 1 is connected to the furnace chamber of the high-temperature vacuum furnace. When feeding, the opening and closing mechanism first drives the bottom cover 3 to rotate upward around the rotating shaft 2, which opens the passage between the box 1 and the high-temperature vacuum furnace chamber. The material is then fed into the interior of the high-temperature vacuum furnace chamber through the feed pipe 4. The above operation can be repeated during evacuation. After feeding and evacuation are completed, the opening and closing mechanism drives the rotating shaft 2 to rotate downward, closing the passage between the box 1 and the high-temperature vacuum furnace chamber. This prevents the feed pipe 4 and the evacuation pipe 6 from directly contacting the high-temperature vacuum furnace chamber, thus protecting the feed pipe 4 and the evacuation pipe 6. In addition, the box 1 is made of 304 stainless steel, which has good heat insulation performance.
[0021] In this embodiment, the opening and closing mechanism includes a sliding frame 7, a cylinder 8, and a connecting rod 9. The top of the bottom cover 3 is fixedly connected to the sliding frame 7, and the top of the housing 1 is fixedly installed with the cylinder 8. The output end of the cylinder 8 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 9. One end of the connecting rod 9 is inserted into the interior of the sliding frame 7. When the output end of the cylinder 8 drives the connecting rod 9 to move upward, the connecting rod 9 can drive the bottom cover 3 to rotate upward around the center of the rotation axis 2, and the connecting rod 9 can slide along the inner wall of the sliding frame 7 to eliminate the interference between the sliding frame 7 and the connecting rod 9. At this time, the housing 1 and the furnace chamber of the high-temperature vacuum furnace are opened. When the output end of the cylinder 8 drives the connecting rod 9 to move downward, the connecting rod 9 can drive the bottom cover 3 to rotate downward around the center of the rotation axis 2, thus closing the housing 1 and the furnace chamber of the high-temperature vacuum furnace. The housing 1 can prevent the feed pipe 4 and the exhaust pipe 6 from directly contacting the furnace chamber of the high-temperature vacuum furnace, thus protecting the feed pipe 4 and the exhaust pipe 6.
[0022] In this embodiment, the bottom right side of the box body 1 is provided with an inclined surface 18, the bottom of the left end of the feed pipe 4 is connected to the discharge pipe 10, the discharge pipe 10 is parallel to the inclined surface 18 downwards, and the feed pipe 4 is provided with a feeding mechanism.
[0023] In this embodiment, the feeding mechanism includes a screw 11 and a self-locking motor 12. The screw 11 is rotatably connected inside the feeding pipe 4, and the self-locking motor 12 is fixedly installed at the right end of the feeding pipe 4. The output end of the self-locking motor 12 is fixedly connected to the right end of the screw 11. The material is fed into the inside of the feeding pipe 4 through the hopper 5. The self-locking motor 12 can drive the screw 11 to rotate inside the feeding pipe 4. The spiral blades on the screw 11 drive the material to move towards the discharge pipe 10. The material is transported to the inside of the box 1 through the discharge pipe 10, and then the material slides down into the inside of the high-temperature vacuum furnace chamber through the inclined surface 18.
[0024] In this embodiment, a protective cover is fixedly installed on the right end of the feed pipe 4. The protective cover wraps around the self-locking motor 12. Multiple anti-collision strips are provided on the outside of the protective cover. The protective cover and anti-collision strips can separate the self-locking motor 12 from external objects, prevent the self-locking motor 12 from directly contacting external objects, and protect the self-locking motor 12.
[0025] In this embodiment, the air extraction mechanism includes a vacuum pump 13, a gas supply pipe 16, and an exhaust pipe 17. The vacuum pump 13 is fixedly installed on the back side of the housing 1. The input end of the vacuum pump 13 is connected to the gas supply pipe 16, and one end of the gas supply pipe 16 is connected to the top end of the extraction pipe 6. The output end of the vacuum pump 13 is connected to the exhaust pipe 17. The vacuum pump 13 is connected to the extraction pipe 6 through the gas supply pipe 16. After the valve on the gas supply pipe 16 is opened, the vacuum pump 13 can extract the internal air of the high-temperature vacuum furnace chamber through the gas supply pipe 16 and the extraction pipe 6, so that the high-temperature vacuum furnace chamber is in a negative pressure state.
[0026] In this embodiment, one end of the gas supply pipe 16 is symmetrically threaded with threaded sleeves 14, and a filter element 15 is provided in the middle of the two threaded sleeves 14. The exhaust pipe 17 is shaped as an upward-facing curved pipe structure. After the two ends of the filter element 15 are connected to the two threaded sleeves 14, the threaded sleeves 14 are rotated to the joint between the threaded sleeves 14 and the filter element 15, so as to install the filter element 15 on the gas supply pipe 16. The filter element 15 plays a role in filtering the gas in the furnace chamber of the high-temperature vacuum furnace, preventing fine particles from entering the interior of the vacuum pump 13 and causing damage to it. The filter element 15 is made of graphite, which has the properties of high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance.
[0027] When the output end of the cylinder 8 drives the connecting rod 9 to move upward, the connecting rod 9 can drive the bottom cover 3 to rotate upward around the center of the rotation axis 2. The connecting rod 9 can also slide along the inner wall of the sliding frame 7, eliminating the interference between the sliding frame 7 and the connecting rod 9. At this time, the box 1 and the furnace chamber of the high-temperature vacuum furnace are opened. When the output end of the cylinder 8 drives the connecting rod 9 to move downward, the connecting rod 9 can drive the bottom cover 3 to rotate downward around the center of the rotation axis 2, sealing the box 1 and the furnace chamber of the high-temperature vacuum furnace. The box 1 can prevent the feed pipe 4 and the exhaust pipe 6 from directly contacting the furnace chamber of the high-temperature vacuum furnace, thus protecting the feed pipe 4 and the exhaust pipe 6.
