Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum production technology, and more specifically, to an aluminum aging furnace. Background Technology

[0002] Aluminum is produced from aluminum ore through a series of smelting and processing processes. It has good thermal and electrical conductivity. In order to maintain its performance, shape and size, the forged aluminum needs to be heat-treated in an aging furnace. In practice, it has the advantages of simple operation, stable structure and good performance.

[0003] The prior art discloses a portable aging furnace for aluminum production, with publication number CN215328219U. The furnace includes a base, motor, a first screw, a movable block, a second screw, a movable plate, a movable shaft, a rotating shaft, a rotating sleeve, a third screw, a housing, a preheating mechanism, a heat storage box, an insulation layer, a first air pump, an extraction block, a second air pump, an exhaust port, a stabilizing rod, a heating plate, a moving mechanism, a fixing block, rollers, and a fourth screw. First, by turning the fourth screw, the position of the device can be easily moved and fixed. Then, by rotating the rotating sleeve, the movable plate changes position accordingly, allowing for adjustment of the movable plate's position. This avoids the problem in most traditional aluminum aging furnaces where the internal partition space cannot be adjusted, preventing the simultaneous processing of aluminum materials of different sizes. This facilitates the processing of aluminum materials of different specifications, improving the practicality of the device. Finally, by starting the motor, the first screw moves with the motor... The rotation of the output shaft causes the position of the movable block to change, facilitating the repositioning of the second screw and the movable plate. This avoids the inefficiency caused by the direct addition of aluminum material in traditional aluminum aging furnaces, which lack automatic movement. It facilitates loading and unloading of aluminum material, improving work efficiency. Then, the heating plate heats the interior of the aging furnace. By activating the first and second air pumps, the air inside the furnace is agitated, allowing for rapid heat diffusion and preventing aluminum material loss due to uneven heating. This ensures uniform temperature distribution within the furnace. After aluminum material processing, the first air pump is activated to absorb and store the heat inside the furnace. The glass fiber's strong heat resistance and good insulation properties help maintain the heat in the storage tank, facilitating preheating of the furnace for the next aluminum material processing cycle and improving the furnace's overall efficiency.

[0004] In the aforementioned utility model, after the aluminum material is heat-treated, the screw and rotating sleeve will have high heat. At this time, the height of the movable plate cannot be adjusted. It is necessary to wait for the screw and rotating sleeve to cool down automatically before the rotating sleeve can be rotated and the height of the movable plate can be adjusted. The time required for the screw and rotating sleeve to cool down automatically is long, which affects the working efficiency of this utility model.

[0005] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

[0016] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an aluminum aging furnace, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] (1) This utility model adopts a heat insulation box. When using the aluminum aging furnace, multiple aluminum materials can be placed on the upper part of multiple sets of movable frame plates. Using the control panel, the forward and reverse motors can be turned on. The output end of the forward and reverse motors can drive the lead lever to rotate. Since the lead lever and the lead screw sleeve are mutually engaged, the rotating lead lever can push the lead screw sleeve to move. The lead screw sleeve can drive the furnace body to move. The limiting through groove and T-shaped sliding plate can ensure the stability of the furnace body's lateral movement. When the furnace body contacts the sealing door, the electric heater is turned on, and multiple aluminum materials can be heat treated. After the heat treatment is completed, the first air pump and the second air pump are turned on using the control panel. At the same time, the two sets of solenoid valves are opened and closed. The high-temperature gas inside the furnace body can pass through the first air guide pipe, the preheating box and the second air guide pipe. When the preheating box contains high-temperature hot gas, Close both sets of solenoid valves to simultaneously stop the first and second air pumps. Then, using the control panel, drive the output end of the forward and reverse motors to rotate the lead lever counterclockwise. The counterclockwise rotating lead lever can drive the furnace body to move to the right through the lead screw sleeve. When the heat insulation box moves out of the furnace body, the time relay reaches the preset value. The controller can then activate the pump and cooling components. The pump can circulate water through the first liquid guide pipe, the heat insulation box, the two sets of external threaded pipes, the connecting pipe, and the temporary storage box. The cooling components can cool the circulating water, which in turn cools the two sets of external threaded pipes and multiple sets of mounting nuts. At this time, the threads of the two sets of external threaded pipes and multiple sets of mounting nuts can be used to rotate the multiple sets of mounting nuts clockwise and counterclockwise. Through the heat insulation box, the cooling of the threaded structure can be accelerated, improving the practicality of the aluminum aging furnace.

[0019] (2) This utility model uses a gas storage cylinder. According to the above operation, when the sealing door blocks the opening of the furnace body, the control panel is used to open and close a set of solenoid valves, and at the same time the second air pump is made to work. The second air pump can fill the interior of the furnace body with the gas inside the preheating box through the second air guide pipe. As the gas pressure inside the furnace body increases, the piston can move to the right. The piston and the gas storage cylinder can squeeze the telescopic spring. The venting mesh provides protection for the movement of the piston. When there is a gap between the furnace body and the sealing door, the telescopic spring can push the piston to the left by its own elastic force. The operator can judge whether there is a gap between the furnace body and the sealing door by observing the position of the T-shaped rod. The gas storage cylinder can detect whether there is a gap between the furnace body and the sealing door, which provides protection for the continuous use of the aluminum aging furnace.

[0036] Working principle:

[0037] In actual use of the aluminum aging furnace, multiple aluminum materials can be placed on the upper part of multiple sets of movable frame plates 9. Using the control panel, the forward and reverse motors 20 are activated. The output end of the forward and reverse motors 20 can drive the lead lever 3 to rotate. Since the lead lever 3 and the lead screw sleeve 4 are threadedly engaged, the rotating lead lever 3 can push the lead screw sleeve 4 to move, and the lead screw sleeve 4 can drive the furnace body 5 to move. The limiting through groove 18 and the T-shaped sliding plate 19 can ensure the stability of the furnace body 5 in lateral movement. When the furnace body 5 contacts the sealing door 6, the electric heater is activated to heat treat multiple aluminum materials. After the heat treatment is completed, the first air pump 13 and the second air pump 14 are activated using the control panel. Simultaneously, the two sets of solenoid valves open and close, allowing high-temperature gas inside the furnace body 5 to pass through the first gas guide pipe 15, preheating box 12, and second gas guide pipe 16. When high-temperature hot gas is present inside the preheating box 12, the two sets of solenoid valves close, simultaneously stopping the first air pump 13 and the second air pump 14. Then, using the control panel, the output end of the forward and reverse motor 20 drives the lead lever 3 to rotate counterclockwise. The counterclockwise rotating lead lever 3 can drive the furnace body 5 to move to the right through the lead screw sleeve 4. When the heat insulation box 7 moves out of the furnace body 5, the time relay reaches the preset value, and the pump 24 and the refrigeration components can be activated through the controller. The pump 24 can circulate water through the first liquid guide pipe 26. The furnace includes an insulation box 7, two sets of external threaded pipes 8, a connecting pipe 21, and a temporary storage box 25. A cooling system can cool the circulating water, which in turn cools the two sets of external threaded pipes 8 and multiple sets of mounting nuts 11. The threads of the two sets of external threaded pipes 8 and the multiple sets of mounting nuts 11 can be engaged, and the nuts 11 can be rotated clockwise and counterclockwise. The insulation box 7 accelerates the cooling of the threaded structure, improving the practicality of the aluminum aging furnace. Furthermore, according to the above operation, when the sealing door 6 blocks the opening of the furnace body 5, a set of solenoid valves can be opened and closed using the control panel, simultaneously activating the second air pump 14. The second air pump 14 can cool the interior of the preheating box 12. Gas is introduced into the furnace body 5 through the second gas pipe 16. As the gas pressure inside the furnace body 5 increases, the piston 30 can move to the right. The piston 30 and the gas storage cylinder 17 can compress the telescopic spring 32. The ventilated net 33 ensures the movement of the piston 30. When there is a gap between the furnace body 5 and the sealing door 6, the telescopic spring 32 can push the piston 30 to the left due to its own elastic force. The operator can determine whether there is a gap between the furnace body 5 and the sealing door 6 by observing the position of the T-shaped rod 31. The gas storage cylinder 17 can detect whether there is a gap between the furnace body 5 and the sealing door 6, ensuring the continuous use of the aluminum aging furnace.
