Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of preheating and slow cooling devices, and in particular to a surface laser cladding preheating and slow cooling device. Background Technology
[0002] Laser cladding is an advanced surface treatment technology that uses a laser beam to melt materials and bond them to the surface of a workpiece, thereby forming a coating with excellent properties. This technology can significantly improve the wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance of the substrate, while also improving hardness and extending service life.
[0003] Currently, laser cladding typically involves placing the material on the substrate surface and focusing the laser beam onto the substrate surface, causing the substrate and cladding material to partially melt and bond with the substrate surface. However, due to the temperature difference between the material and the substrate, thermal stress can easily occur, posing a risk of cracking. Furthermore, after the cladding process is completed, water cooling or oil cooling is generally used for cooling, which can easily lead to thermal cracking and affect product quality. Therefore, it is necessary to design a surface laser cladding preheating and slow cooling device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

A common dustproof net is mounted on top of each of the four fans and is also fixedly connected to the constant temperature chamber. A heating unit is mounted on top of the dustproof net and is fixedly connected to the constant temperature chamber. Air guide plates are mounted on the top of both ends of the heating unit and are fixedly connected to the constant temperature chamber. Two air guide slots are formed on the constant temperature chamber. The air guide plates are positioned at the input ends of the air guide slots. Two air collection pipes are installed in the operating room and are fixedly connected to the constant temperature chamber. Each air collection pipe has an air inlet and several air outlets at its top. The air inlet is positioned at the output end of the air guide slot, and the air collection pipes are positioned at the air outlets. An air outlet duct is fixedly connected at the location, and the air outlet duct is inclined upward. By using a heating unit to raise the temperature in the operating chamber to preheat the workpiece and reduce the temperature difference between the workpiece and the material, and by blowing hot air onto the workpiece and gradually lowering the temperature of the hot air to slowly cool the workpiece, the technical means effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background technology, such as direct cladding, which has a certain temperature difference between the material and the substrate, easily generates thermal stress, and has the risk of cracking. Moreover, currently, after the cladding work is completed, water cooling or oil cooling is generally used for cooling, which is prone to thermal cracking and affects product quality. Thus, it effectively reduces thermal stress, reduces material deformation and stress concentration caused by temperature difference, thereby reducing the risk of cracking, avoiding thermal cracking caused by rapid cooling, and helping to maintain the integrity and structural stability of the coating.
[0007] Preferably, the constant temperature chamber has a square groove, and an insulation blanket is placed in the square groove.
[0008] Preferably, the inner wall of the constant temperature chamber is fixedly connected to two trays, the trays are set in the operating chamber, and the top of the trays is fixedly connected to several fixed seats, with rollers rotatably connected to the fixed seats.
[0009] Preferably, the top of several rollers at both ends is provided with the same support grid, and the top of both ends of the support grid is provided with a limiting plate, which is fixedly connected to the constant temperature chamber.

[0012] Preferably, temperature sensors are installed on both the constant temperature chamber and the chamber door, and the temperature sensors are electrically connected to the controller via wires.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] By employing a heating unit to preheat the workpiece by raising the temperature inside the operating chamber, thereby reducing the temperature difference between the workpiece and the material, and by blowing hot air onto the workpiece and gradually lowering the temperature of the hot air to slowly cool it down, the technical methods proposed in the background technology effectively solve the problems of direct cladding, where a certain temperature difference exists between the material and the substrate, easily generating thermal stress and posing a risk of cracking. Furthermore, currently, after the cladding work is completed, water cooling or oil cooling is generally used for cooling, which easily leads to thermal cracking and affects product quality. This effectively reduces thermal stress, reduces material deformation and stress concentration caused by temperature differences, thereby reducing the risk of cracking and avoiding thermal cracking caused by rapid cooling, which helps maintain the integrity and structural stability of the coating.
