Detailed Implementation

[0022] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model provides a water-cooled portable graphitization furnace, including an outer shell layer 1, an insulation layer 2, and heating electrodes 3;

[0024] The outer shell layer 1 has a sealed first receiving cavity, and a cooling groove 11 is formed in the wall of the outer shell layer 1. One end of the outer wall of the outer shell layer 1 is provided with a water inlet 12 communicating with the cooling groove 11, and the other end of the outer wall of the outer shell layer 1 is provided with a water outlet 13 communicating with the cooling groove 11.

[0025] The insulation layer 2 is built into the first receiving cavity, and the insulation layer 2 has a sealed second receiving cavity, which is used to place at least one crucible 4.

[0026] The heating electrode 3 is housed within the second receiving cavity.

[0027] In use, the material to be graphitized is placed into each crucible 4, and then the heating electrode 3 is energized. The heating electrode 3 generates resistance heat, thereby heating the material in the crucible 4 and graphitizing it. After heating, cold water is introduced into the water inlet 12. The cold water enters the cooling tank 11 through the water inlet 12 and is discharged from the water outlet 13. During this process, the cold water absorbs heat, thereby cooling the material in the crucible 4. After complete cooling, the graphitized material can be removed. This invention, by setting a cooling tank 11 in the wall of the outer shell layer 1 and introducing cold water into the cooling tank 11, can greatly accelerate the cooling efficiency of the material in the crucible 4, thereby improving production efficiency.

Each first baffle 14 forms a first notch with the inner wall of the cooling tank 11, and each second baffle 15 forms a second notch with the inner wall of the cooling tank 11. The first notches and second notches are arranged opposite to each other. By setting the staggered first baffles 14 and second baffles 15, the path of the cold water during flow will be bent, thereby increasing the flow path of the cold water and improving the cooling effect.

[0031] To further improve the cooling effect, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, the cooling tank 11 is further fixed with several partition plates 16. Each partition plate 16 is used to divide the cooling tank 11 into several non-communicating cooling units.

[0035] To specifically achieve the connection between the main water outlet 6 and each of the aforementioned water outlets 13, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, the main water outlet 6 is connected to each of the water outlets 13 via a plurality of second connecting pipes 61.

[0036] To improve the strength of outer shell layer 1, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, the outer shell layer 1 is a stainless steel outer shell layer.

[0037] To better understand this utility model, the following is combined with... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The working process of the water-cooled portable graphitization furnace provided by this utility model is described in detail below: In use, the material to be graphitized is loaded into each crucible 4. Then, the heating electrode 3 is energized, generating resistance heat to heat the material in the crucible 4, thereby graphitizing it. After heating, cold water is introduced into the water inlet 12. The cold water enters the cooling tank 11 through the water inlet 12 and is discharged from the water outlet 13. During this process, the cold water absorbs heat, thereby cooling the material in the crucible 4. Once completely cooled, the graphitized material can be removed. This utility model, by setting a cooling tank 11 within the wall of the outer shell layer 1 and introducing cold water into the cooling tank 11, can greatly accelerate the cooling efficiency of the material in the crucible 4, thereby improving production efficiency.
