Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a heat treatment device for liquefied petroleum gas cylinders after welding, including a housing 1, a housing cover 2, an inner plate 3, a heat insulation board 4, a sealing gasket 5, a heater 6, a receiving plate 7, a placement groove 8, a fixing plate 9, an adjusting rod 10, a motor 11, a temperature sensor 12, a display 13, a timer 14, a controller 15, a solenoid valve 16, a connecting pipe 17, a heat exchanger 18, a pump 19, and a transfer pipe 20. When using this heat treatment device for liquefied petroleum gas cylinders after welding, if... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 First, the cover 2 connected to the inner rear end of the box 1 can be rotated outward to disconnect the tight connection of the sealing gasket 5 on the outside of the cover 2. Then, the cover 2 can be disconnected from the box 1. Then, the controller 15 installed on the inner rear upper end of the box 1 can be used to control the motor 11 installed on the lower front end of the box 1 to operate. This allows the adjusting rod 10 connected to the rear of the motor 11 via a coupling to rotate under the locking limit of the box 1. Since the outer front end of the adjusting rod 10 is threaded with a fixing plate 9 that is nested and fitted with the box 1, and the fixing plate 9 is fixedly connected with a receiving plate 7 that is fitted with the box 1, the operation of the motor 11 makes it easy for the adjusting rod 10 to drive the fixing plate 9 to move backward under the locking limit of the box 1. This allows the fixing plate 9 to drive the receiving plate 7 to move backward, thus making it easy to nest the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder to be heat-treated in the placement slot 8 that is staggered inside the upper end of the receiving plate 7, completing the placement of the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder.

[0027] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 After the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder is placed, the controller 15 can control the motor 11 to operate again, causing the adjusting rod 10 to move the receiving plate 7 forward via the fixing plate 9, so that the receiving plate 7 returns to its original position, placing the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder inside the box 1. The box cover 2 can then be rotated again to close the connection with the box 1. Next, the controller 15 can control the heaters 6, which are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the inner sides of the left and right ends of the box 1, to operate and perform heat treatment on the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder. During the heat treatment process, the box 1 and the box cover 2 are both composed of an inner plate 3 and a heat insulation board 4 pasted on the outside of the inner plate 3. A sealing gasket 5 is attached and fixed to the outer side of the outer end, which fits tightly against the box body 1. Therefore, the heat insulation of the heat insulation board 4 and the sealing performance of the sealing gasket 5 are conducive to the heat insulation performance of the equipment. The controller 15 controls the temperature sensor 12 embedded in the inner side of the middle of the upper end of the box body 1 and the display 13 and timer 14 embedded in the inner side of the upper rear end of the box body 1 to work together. This makes it easy for the temperature sensor 12 and the display 13 to sense and display the temperature of the heater 6, and to control the heater 6 in a timed manner through the timer 14, so as to make the heat treatment effect of the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder better.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3After the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder is heat-treated, the solenoid valves 16 fixedly installed on the upper right side of the front and upper right side of the housing 1 can be controlled by the controller 15 to operate, so that the connecting pipe 17 connected to the external thread of the solenoid valve 16 is connected to the housing 1. Then, the heat exchanger 18 and the pump 19 installed on the lower right side of the housing 1 can be controlled by the controller 15 to operate. Since the lower end of the connecting pipe 17 is connected to the heat exchanger 18 and the pump 19 respectively, and the heat exchanger 18 and the pump 19 are connected by a transfer pipe 20, the operation of the pump 19 makes it easy for the hot air in the housing 1 to be circulated through the solenoid valve 16 and drawn into the heat exchanger 18 through the transfer pipe 20 for heat exchange. This facilitates the recovery and utilization of waste heat while cooling the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder.

[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 After the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder has been cooled down, the cover 2 can be rotated outwards first, and then the motor 11 can be controlled by the controller 15 to move the receiving plate 7 to the outside of the box body 1 so that the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder can be taken out from the placement slot 8 opened inside the upper end of the receiving plate 7. All the electrical components mentioned above are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.
