[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0031] The term "comprising" and other similar descriptions in the specification and claims of the present application are all used to cover non-exclusive inclusion, that is, both the contents explicitly described in the specification and claims can be included, and the steps or units not described in the specification and claims but inherent in the product, method or structure can also be included.

[0032] Embodiment 1, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 The embodiment provides a hot air oven using metal foil infrared heating, which comprises an outer box body 10, an inner box body 20 located in the inner box body 10, a heating rod 30 and a fan 40; further comprising a metal foil infrared radiation sheet 50; a cavity 60 is arranged between the inner box body 20 and the outer box body 10, a plurality of ventilation holes 21 are arranged on the inner box body 20 and communicate with the cavity 60, the position of the ventilation hole 21 cooperates with the position and operation of the fan 40, so that the hot air uniformly enters the inner box body 20 from each ventilation hole 21, so that the convection distribution of the heat in the box is more uniform; the heating rod 30 is installed in the cavity 60, which reduces the direct contact with the external environment, and the cavity 60 itself has a certain heat insulation effect, which can reduce the heat loss to the outside and optimize the utilization rate of heat energy; the metal foil infrared radiation sheet 50 is arranged in the inner box body, specifically, the metal foil infrared radiation sheet 50 comprises a plurality of long strip-shaped metal foil sheets, a plurality of the metal foil sheets are equidistantly distributed on the two opposite sides of the inner box body, the upper end is fixed on the top of the inner box body, and the lower end is fixed on the bottom of the inner box body; a gap is left between the metal foil infrared radiation sheet 50 and the wall of the inner box body 20, which can effectively ensure that the infrared radiation energy can freely propagate in the box, and avoid local overheating or overcooling phenomenon; the fan is installed at the top of the air box, and the fan blades are located in the cavity space between the top of the inner box body and the outer box body. The position of the fan installation optimizes the hot air circulation path, and the blades are in a specific cavity space, which can efficiently send the heat generated by the heating rod into the inner box through the ventilation hole to form a hot air circulation.

[0033] As shown in Figure 3 , Figure 4 On the basis of the above embodiment 1, in some embodiments of the present application, the metal foil sheet used is a wave-shaped structure. In this scheme, the wave-shaped structure of the metal foil sheet makes the propagation path of the infrared radiation in the box more complex and diversified. The concave-convex structure formed by the wave crest and the wave trough makes the infrared light continuously reflect and scatter in the box, avoids the concentration of infrared radiation in a certain area, and ensures that both the central area in the box and the objects close to the box wall can receive more uniform infrared radiation. Together with the hot air circulation, it further improves the uniformity of the temperature in the box and greatly improves the product quality stability. Further preferably, the thickness of the metal foil sheet is 50-200 μm. Preferably, the thickness of the metal foil sheet is 100 μm. The relatively thin thickness makes the foil sheet resistance relatively large. According to Joule's law Q=I 2Rt (wherein Q is heat, I is current, R is resistance, t is time), under the same current conditions, the greater the resistance means that the heat generated is more concentrated and fast; the thinner metal foil quickly heats up, while meeting the demand for heat compensation, without the need for high power input; if the foil is too thick, the resistance becomes smaller, the heating speed will slow down, and it cannot meet the demand for rapid heat compensation of the oven. Therefore, by adjusting the thickness of the metal foil, the infrared radiation effect can be improved, and the heat can be quickly supplemented in the box. The greater the wave height greatly increases the surface area of the metal foil, the greater the surface area, the more energy is radiated outward per unit time. Therefore, in some embodiments of the present application, the height of the wave structure on the metal foil is 10-20 times the thickness of the metal foil.

[0034] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, further, in some embodiments, the width of the metal foil is adjusted to adjust the uniform distribution of infrared radiation in the box. If the foil is too narrow, its radiation range is limited, which may result in that some areas in the box cannot receive enough infrared radiation. Therefore, in these embodiments, the width of the metal foil is 10-30 mm.

[0035] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, further, in the hot air oven with metal foil infrared heating, the distance between two adjacent metal foils is greater than or equal to the width of the metal foil. This distance provides sufficient space for the propagation of infrared radiation. A larger distance can avoid mutual interference and shielding of infrared light during propagation, so that infrared radiation can more effectively cover the space in the box and uniformly heat the articles. The ventilation holes are arranged at the distance between two adjacent metal foil infrared radiation sheets, and are arranged equidistantly from top to bottom. Such a layout enables the hot air blown by the fan to smoothly pass through the ventilation holes into the inner box body after being heated by the heating rod, and to cooperate with the infrared radiation. The hot air flows in the channel formed between the metal foils, which not only carries away part of the heat generated by the metal foil to speed up the heat transfer efficiency, but also heats the articles in the box together with the infrared radiation to improve the overall heating efficiency. In this scheme, the distance between the metal foils ensures uniform coverage of the infrared radiation, and the equidistant arrangement of the ventilation holes at the distance ensures that both the areas close to the metal foils and the areas far from the metal foils are heated by uniform infrared radiation and convection of hot air at the same time. In addition, the ventilation holes arranged at the distance also facilitate the cleaning of dust, impurities and the like that may accumulate in the ventilation holes, ensure smooth ventilation, maintain normal operation of the equipment, and reduce the difficulty of equipment maintenance.

[0036] As a further preferred scheme, the metal foil infrared radiation sheet described in the embodiments of the present application is an electrothermal alloy sheet, which is an ultra-thin metal sheet of iron-chromium-aluminum alloy. The alloy material has good heat conductivity, and the metal foil infrared radiation sheet can uniformly radiate infrared light to the surroundings after being heated. The ultra-thin metal sheet made of the alloy material can rapidly heat up to above 700℃ after being electrified and directly radiate infrared light with a wavelength of 2-15 μm. The infrared light with this wavelength range has a strong thermal effect and can be efficiently absorbed by most heated objects, directly acting on the molecules of the objects to promote the vibration of the molecules, thereby realizing rapid heating and efficient heating. The metal foil sheet made of iron, chromium and aluminum alloy has good electrical conductivity and thermal performance and can efficiently convert electrical energy into heat energy at full power to realize rapid heat compensation with less energy consumption.

[0037] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, it is further preferred that, in some embodiments, the heating rod is an electric resistance wire heating rod, and the heating rod is arranged at the rear side of the ventilation opening. The air sent by the fan first passes through the electric resistance wire heating rod before entering the ventilation opening, so that the air can fully absorb the heat generated by the electric resistance wire and rapidly heat up to hot air, which then efficiently enters the inner box through the ventilation holes. Due to the preheating effect of the heating rod on the air being concentrated near the ventilation opening, the hot air blown out from each ventilation hole has a relatively consistent temperature, which further optimizes the heat distribution in the box in cooperation with the infrared radiation of the metal foil infrared radiation sheet.

[0038] The hot air oven using metal foil infrared heating described in the embodiments of the present application further comprises a controller and a temperature sensor. The controller is used to control the start and stop of the electric heating rod and the metal foil infrared radiation sheet. The temperature sensor is used to monitor the temperature in the oven in real time and transmit the temperature signal to the controller. The controller controls the operating state of the metal foil infrared radiation sheet according to the temperature signal. When the hot air oven is opened, the temperature sensor will sense the temperature change in the oven and send a signal of the temperature change to the controller. The controller will make feedback according to the received signal and make the metal foil infrared radiation sheet electrified to generate heat, thereby compensating for the heat loss caused by opening the door.

[0039] As a further preferred scheme, a heat insulation layer is arranged between the outer box and the inner box, and the heat insulation layer is tightly attached to the inner wall of the outer box. The presence of the heat insulation layer greatly hinders the conduction of heat from the outer box to the external environment. Compared with the oven without the heat insulation layer, the heat insulation layer can effectively reduce the loss of a large amount of heat and ensure that more heat is retained in the inner box to provide a continuous and stable heating environment for the objects in the box, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of heat. The heat insulation layer is tightly attached to the inner wall of the outer box, thereby reducing the stress change of the outer box due to frequent thermal expansion and cold contraction.

[0040] The above-mentioned embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present application, and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Any non-essential changes and replacements made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the present application shall fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
