Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] In the fields of metal smelting, casting, and materials processing, smelting furnaces are one of the core pieces of equipment, used to heat metals or alloys to a molten state for casting, refining, or composition adjustment. During operation, smelting furnaces require stirring of the raw materials inside. For example, Chinese utility model patent CN202421589393.X discloses a stirring device for a casting aluminum alloy smelting furnace. The drive motor 2 on its sealed cover drives the transmission rod 4 to rotate via a transmission box 201, thereby rotating the inclined stirring rod 401 and the horizontal stirring rod 402 to stir the molten aluminum. However, this stirring mechanism only allows the stirring rods to stir the molten material in a fixed position during operation, resulting in poor stirring efficiency and affecting the uniformity of heating and the smelting effect.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] This invention uses a first motor to drive the drive shaft, stirring sleeve shaft, and multiple sets of stirring blades on the stirring shaft to rotate synchronously to stir the molten material inside the furnace. Meanwhile, a second motor drives an eccentric wheel to rotate. During the rotation of the eccentric wheel and the limiting plate, the connecting ring groove and the connecting head limit sliding cooperation cause the corresponding guide rod to drive the connecting outer plate, connecting inner plate, stirring sleeve shaft, and multiple sets of stirring blades to make linear reciprocating motion in the vertical direction.

The drive shaft of the first motor 11 is connected to an active shaft 12 rotatably installed below the furnace cover 10. A stirring sleeve shaft 13 capable of rotating synchronously with the active shaft 12 is slidably fitted at the lower end of the active shaft 12. Figure 2As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the drive shaft 12 is uniformly provided with a plurality of elongated connecting protrusions 14 along the circumferential direction, and the inner peripheral wall of the stirring sleeve shaft 13 is provided with a plurality of connecting grooves 15 that are adapted to each of the connecting protrusions 14.

[0026] The upper part of the furnace cover 10 is provided with a drive mechanism for driving the reciprocating lifting and lowering motion of the outer connecting plate 17; multiple sets of stirring blades 19 are fixedly installed at even intervals on the outer peripheral wall of the stirring sleeve shaft 13 below the outer connecting plate 17.
[0027] Two vertical guide rods 20 are symmetrically fixed at both ends of the upper part of the external connecting plate 17, and the two guide rods 20 are respectively slidably sealed with the through holes opened on the furnace cover 10.
[0028] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism includes a vertically fixed mounting plate 21 on the upper part of the furnace cover 10.
