[0023] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. Parts not described or disclosed in detail in the following embodiments of this utility model should be understood as prior art known or should be known by those skilled in the art.
[0024] Example 1
[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a pretreatment device for a strip steel heat treatment furnace is located at the entrance of the furnace 10. It includes a support frame 1. A first clamping roller 2 is rotatably mounted on the input end of the support frame 1 to clamp the input end of the strip steel, ensuring stable entry into the device. A second clamping roller 3 is rotatably mounted on the output end of the support frame 1 to clamp the output end of the strip steel, allowing it to smoothly exit the device and enter the heat treatment furnace 10. Multiple conveying rollers 4, rotatably connected to the support frame 1, are evenly arranged between the first clamping roller 2 and the second clamping roller 3, with a certain gap between adjacent conveying rollers 4. The conveying rollers 4 support and convey the strip steel, allowing it to move smoothly within the device.
[0026] The support frame 1 is provided with a first limiting plate 5 and a second limiting plate 6 on both sides. The first limiting plate 5 and the second limiting plate 6 are fixedly connected to the support frame 1 by a fixing rod 14. In this utility model, there are several fixing rods 14. The fixing rods 14 can prevent the first limiting plate 5 or the second limiting plate 6 from shifting, and ensure the stability of the conveying channel 7.
[0027] The first limiting plate 5 and the second limiting plate 6 form a conveying channel 7 extending along the strip conveying direction. The conveying channel 7 includes a contraction section 701, a holding section 702, and an expansion section 703. The width of the contraction section 701 gradually contracts to 90% of the strip width along the conveying direction of the conveying roller 4. The strip is constrained by the contraction section 701, and the surface of the strip gradually bulges upward or downward to facilitate subsequent processing operations. A ring-shaped protrusion is provided at the center of the conveying roller 4, which is located within the contraction section 701 and has a length equal to the strip width. The ring-shaped protrusion can prevent the surface of the strip from bulging downward. Furthermore, at least one conveying roller 4 adjacent to this conveying roller 4 also has a ring-shaped protrusion at its center, and the line connecting the ring-shaped protrusions on all the conveying rollers 4 is in the same direction as the strip conveying direction. In this utility model, the number of conveying rollers 4 with ring-shaped protrusions is three, and the gap width between two adjacent conveying rollers 4 is not less than twice the thickness of the ring-shaped protrusion.
[0028] The width of the maintaining part 702 is equal to the minimum width of the shrinking part 701, and the maintaining part 702 and the shrinking part 701 are connected. The maintaining part 702 can make the strip steel be smoothly conveyed in the adjusted state and prevent the strip steel from gradually returning to its original state during the conveying process. The width of the expanding part 703 is kept to gradually expand along the conveying direction of the conveying roller 4 and the maximum width is not less than the width of the strip steel. This allows the strip steel to return to its original state before entering the heat treatment furnace 10.
[0029] A cleaning device 8, fixedly connected to the support frame 1, is provided above the contraction section 701. The cleaning device 8 includes multiple nozzles 801 that spray water toward the surface of the strip steel. The nozzles 801 spray water onto the surface of the strip steel to clean the residue on the surface of the strip steel, ensuring that the surface of the strip steel is clean before entering the heat treatment furnace 10. All nozzles 801 are connected to a water inlet pipe 802, which connects the nozzles 801 to an external water source. Furthermore, the nozzles 801 reciprocate along the axial direction of the conveyor roller 4. In this invention, all nozzles 801 are hinged to the body of the cleaning device 8 and also hinged to a connecting rod. The connecting rod is fixedly connected to an electric push rod. By pushing and pulling the electric push rod, the connecting rod moves left and right, and the nozzles 801 reciprocate. This allows the water sprayed from the nozzles 801 to more comprehensively cover the surface of the strip steel, thereby more effectively cleaning the residue on the surface of the strip steel.
[0030] Above the holding section 702, an air jet device 13 is fixedly connected to the support frame 1. The air jet device 13 includes multiple air jet heads 1301 for blowing away moisture from the strip surface, causing the moisture on the strip surface to evaporate quickly, thereby reducing moisture residue on the strip surface. The multiple air jet heads 1301 are evenly distributed in two rows along the axial direction of the conveyor roller 4 in an inverted V shape; this distribution allows the air jet heads 1301 to blow away moisture from the strip surface more evenly.
[0031] The above are the basic embodiments of this utility model. Further improvements, optimizations, and limitations can be made based on the above to obtain the following embodiments:
[0032] Example 2
[0033] This embodiment is an improvement on embodiment 1. Its main structure is the same as that of embodiment 1, but the improvement lies in:
[0034] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the expansion section 703 is disposed within the heating chamber 9, which is connected to the inlet of the heat treatment furnace 10. The heating chamber 9 preheats the strip steel, ensuring it reaches a certain temperature before entering the heat treatment furnace 10, thereby improving the efficiency of the heat treatment. A sealing plate 12 is provided on the side of the heating chamber 9 away from the heat treatment furnace 10 to prevent heat loss from the heating chamber 9. A long through hole 16 for the strip steel to pass through is formed between the bottom end of the sealing plate 12 and the conveying channel 7. A heating device 11 is disposed within the heating chamber 9; the heating device 11 is an electric heating wire, an infrared radiation tube, or an electromagnetic induction heating assembly.
[0035] The heating chamber 9 is provided with an air guide pipe 1302 connected to it. An air pump 17 is provided at the end of the air guide pipe 1302 away from the heating chamber 9. The air inlet of the air pump 17 is connected to the air guide pipe 1302, and the air outlet of the air pump 17 is connected to multiple jet nozzles 1301. The air pump 17 draws out the hot air in the heating chamber 9 and outputs it from the jet nozzles 1301. The hot air can better remove moisture from the surface of the strip steel.
[0036] Example 3
[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the conveying roller 4 has an annular groove 15 coaxially arranged on both sides. The bottoms of the first limiting plate 5 and the second limiting plate 6 are both located in the annular groove 15, and the bottoms of the first limiting plate 5 and the second limiting plate 6 are not higher than the bottom of the conveying channel 7. This design can prevent the strip from shifting out from the bottom of the first limiting plate 5 or the second limiting plate 6 without being constrained by the conveying channel 7.
[0038] The working process of the pretreatment device of the strip heat treatment furnace 10 is as follows: In actual operation, the strip enters from the input end of the support frame 1, is first clamped by the first clamping roller 2, and then enters the conveying channel 7 under the support and conveying action of the conveying roller 4. In the contraction section 701, the width of the strip is gradually adjusted to an arc-shaped surface with an upward convexity in the middle. At the same time, the cleaning device 8 above the contraction section 701 sprays water onto the surface of the strip through the nozzle 801 to clean the residue on the surface of the strip. The residue flows to both sides of the strip with the water until it leaves the strip. The nozzle 801 swings back and forth along the axis of the conveying roller 4, so that the nozzle 801 can more comprehensively cover the surface of the strip, thereby cleaning the strip more effectively.
[0039] After cleaning, the strip enters the holding section 702. An air jet device 13 above the holding section 702 blows air onto the strip surface through an air jet head 1301, dispersing the moisture and allowing it to evaporate quickly, thus reducing residual moisture. The air jet head 1301 is connected to an air pump 17 via an air guide pipe 1302. The air pump 17 provides a stable air source to the air jet head 1301, ensuring that it can effectively disperse the moisture on the strip surface.
[0040] The strip steel enters the expansion section 703 through the elongated through-hole 16. The expansion section 703 is located inside the heating chamber 9. The heating device 11 inside the heating chamber 9 preheats the strip steel, ensuring it reaches a certain temperature before entering the heat treatment furnace 10, thereby improving the effect and efficiency of the heat treatment. The air pump 17 extracts gas from the heating chamber 9 through the air guide pipe 1302 to provide an air source for the jet nozzle 1301. The strip steel then enters the heat treatment furnace 10 from the heating chamber 9 for subsequent heat treatment operations.
[0041] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
