[0025] Embodiments

[0026] As Figures 1-3 shown, a device for drying sponge titanium by using ingot heat, comprising a mold body 1, a first cavity 2 is arranged in the mold body 1, a first side wall 4 of the first cavity 2 and a second side wall 5 of the mold body 1 are provided with a sandwich layer 3, an annular step 6 is arranged in the sandwich layer 3, a high-temperature ingot is placed in the first cavity 2, and wet sponge titanium is placed on the annular step 6, and the wet sponge titanium is dried by releasing the heat energy of the high-temperature ingot.

[0027] In the present embodiment: since the ingot has a high temperature after smelting, the heat released by the ingot is conducted to the sponge titanium in the sandwich layer 3 through the first side wall 4, thereby realizing the drying effect. Through this innovative device design, the energy utilization efficiency is significantly improved, the sponge titanium is effectively dried, and the dual purposes of energy saving and cost reduction are achieved. In addition, this integrated heat energy utilization method also provides a new idea for resource optimization in the production process of titanium alloy, and has high popularization value and application prospect.

[0028] It needs to be further explained that, as Figures 2-3 shown, the sponge titanium to be dried is evenly placed in the annular step 6 area of the mold body 1. First, the annular step 6 can ensure the stable placement of the sponge titanium, second, the annular step 6 can be in full contact with the first side wall 4 for subsequent uniform heat transfer, and third, the air enters from the air inlet 7, the annular step 6 forms a wind guide, which is more convenient for the vapor evaporation of the sponge titanium.

[0029] Further, as Figure 4 shown, the mold body 1 is provided with an upper cover 8, and the upper cover 8 is provided with a plurality of first ventilation holes.

[0030] Further, the upper cover 8 is hinged to the upper end surface of the second side wall 5.

[0031] In the present embodiment: the upper cover 8 and the upper end surface of the second side wall 5 can realize the sealing function.

[0032] Further, a connecting bolt is arranged between the upper cover 8 and the second side wall 5.

[0033] In this embodiment: after placing the titanium sponge, the upper cover 8 is connected with the mold body 1 through the connecting bolt to realize the sealing function. The design of the connecting bolt ensures the close connection between the upper cover and the second side wall 5 of the mold body, preventing heat loss and external air from entering.

[0034] Further, the bottom of the second side wall 5 of the mold body 1 is provided with an air inlet 7.

[0035] Further, a blowing mechanism is arranged at the air inlet 7.

[0036] In this embodiment: according to the humidity of the titanium sponge, the operator can selectively use the blowing mechanism, preferably, the blowing mechanism can be a blower, and the air outlet of the blower is connected with the air inlet 7. By blowing hot air or normal temperature air, the drying process of the titanium sponge is further accelerated. This step can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs to ensure that the titanium sponge reaches the ideal dry state.

[0037] Further, a plurality of second ventilation holes are arranged on the second side wall 5 of the mold body 1.

[0038] In this embodiment: the plurality of second ventilation holes are uniformly distributed on the surface of the second side wall 5, and the second ventilation holes can further evaporate water vapor and dissipate heat, which is beneficial to the drying of the titanium sponge.

[0039] Further, the mold body 1 is a cylinder or a cuboid.

[0040] In this embodiment: the mold body 1 can be adjusted according to needs, as long as the cavity for placing the high-temperature ingot is arranged inside, and the interlayer 8 for storing the titanium sponge is arranged between the cavity and the side wall of the mold body 1.

[0041] The specific use method of the utility model is as follows:

[0042] Step 1: open the upper cover of the mold body 1

[0043] Firstly, the operator opens the upper cover of the mold body 1. The mold body 1 is designed with an annular step 6 inside for accommodating and fixing the titanium sponge. The upper cover is connected with the outer object through the connecting bolt to ensure the sealing and stability.

[0044] Step 2: place the titanium sponge

[0045] The titanium sponge to be dried is evenly placed in the annular step 6 area of the outer object. The design of the annular step 6 can ensure that the titanium sponge is in full contact with the first side wall 4, so as to uniformly transfer the heat in the subsequent process.

[0046] Step 3: cover the upper cover 8

[0047] After placing the titanium sponge, the upper cover 8 is firmly covered by connecting the bolt. The design of the connecting bolt ensures the tight connection between the upper cover and the outer object, preventing heat loss and external air from entering.

[0048] Step 4: Place titanium alloy ingot

[0049] Slowly place the high-temperature titanium alloy ingot from the ingot placement position into the first cavity 2 of the body mold. Since the ingot has a high temperature after smelting, the heat released by it will be conducted through the first side wall 4 to the titanium sponge in the interlayer 3, thereby achieving the drying effect.

[0050] Step 5: Blow drying (optional)

[0051] According to the humidity of the titanium sponge, the operator can selectively use a hair dryer. The blowing port of the hair dryer is connected to the air inlet 7, and by blowing hot air or normal temperature air, the drying process of the titanium sponge is further accelerated. This step can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs to ensure that the titanium sponge reaches the ideal dry state.

[0052] Step 6: Cooling and taking out

[0053] After the titanium alloy ingot cools to room temperature, open the upper cover 8 and take out the dried titanium sponge and the cooled titanium alloy ingot. The whole process is simple to operate, and has high practicability and economy.
