Abstract
Description
A tilting aluminum melting furnace Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum melting technology, and in particular to a tilting aluminum melting furnace. Background Technology
[0002] An aluminum melting furnace is an industrial furnace used to melt aluminum and aluminum alloy materials. It generates high temperatures by burning fuel or gas, which melts the aluminum material inside the furnace to meet the demand for molten aluminum in aluminum processing production. The most common type is the stationary type.
[0003] In most aluminum melting furnaces, the combustion system is first turned on to release a large amount of heat, gradually increasing the furnace temperature. Once the furnace temperature reaches a suitable range, aluminum material is loaded into the furnace chamber through the furnace door using forklifts or other lifting equipment. As heating continues, the aluminum material gradually melts, eventually producing molten aluminum that meets the requirements of aluminum processing. Then, a special ladle, operated manually or mechanically, is inserted into the furnace to scoop out the molten aluminum and transport it to a designated location for casting and other subsequent processing. However, this unloading operation is quite cumbersome because the ladle needs to be smaller than the material inlet and the aluminum furnace is relatively tall. Therefore, the amount of molten aluminum scooped from the ladle each time is limited, requiring multiple operations to complete a certain amount of molten aluminum transfer. The frequent scooping and transportation process consumes a lot of time, thereby reducing overall production efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new type of tilting aluminum melting furnace to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0014] Compared with related technologies, the tilting aluminum melting furnace provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] This invention, through the combination of a motor and an electric push rod, allows the aluminum furnace to be tilted easily, enabling molten aluminum to flow out quickly from the discharge hole under gravity.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0024] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4. A tilting aluminum melting furnace includes: a support frame 1, which serves as the foundation of the entire aluminum melting furnace and possesses sufficient strength and stability. Two support plates 2 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the support frame 1, providing reliable support points for the rotational connection of the aluminum furnace 3. The aluminum furnace 3 is the core working component used to contain and melt aluminum material. The material inlet 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the aluminum furnace 3, which is the feeding channel for aluminum material. The discharge hole 5 opened on one side is used to discharge the molten aluminum liquid. The support block 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1 in the opposite direction to the discharge hole 5, providing a stable installation base for the first electric push rod 7. The cover plate 8 fixedly connected to the external drive end of the first electric push rod 7 is plugged into the material inlet 4. The bottom end of the first electric push rod 7 contacts the top of the support block 6 on the side close to the first electric push rod 7 to dissipate heat as much as possible.
[0026] The combustion assembly is installed inside the cover plate 8. The burner head 9 in the combustion assembly is firmly fixed to the outside of the cover plate 8. The natural gas pipe 10 connected to the input end of the burner head 9 is responsible for transporting natural gas and other fuels. The output end of the burner head 9 is inserted into the material port 4 and extends to the top of the aluminum furnace 3, and is kept in a non-contact state with the material port 4. This design can ensure that the fuel is fully burned and provide efficient heat for the melting of aluminum in the aluminum furnace.
[0027] A threaded rod 11 is rotatably connected to one side of the support frame 1. Sliding blocks 12 are slidably connected to both sides of the support frame 1. The interior of one sliding block 12 is threadedly connected to the exterior of the threaded rod 11. A connecting block 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding block 12. A motor 14 is fixedly connected to the end of the side with the threaded rod 11, and one end of the threaded rod 11 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the motor 14, providing power for the rotation of the threaded rod 11. A fixing rod 15 is fixedly connected to the interior of the other side of the support frame 1. The interior of the sliding block 12 is slidably connected to the exterior of the fixed rod 15. The top of the support frame 1 is provided with sliding grooves 16 corresponding to the threaded rod 11 and the fixed rod 15. The bottom of the support frame 1 is fixedly connected with multiple casters, which facilitates the movement of the entire aluminum melting furnace and enhances the flexibility of the equipment. The exterior of the connecting block 13 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 16. When the motor 14 drives the threaded rod 11 to rotate, it can drive the sliding block 12 to move in the sliding groove 16, thereby realizing the flexible adjustment of the position of the aluminum furnace 3 on the support frame 1.
[0028] The rotating assembly is installed inside the support plate 2. The rotating assembly includes a second electric push rod 17, one side of which is fixedly connected to the outside of the second electric push rod 17 and the inside of one side of the support plate 2. A rack plate 18 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the second electric push rod 17. A gear 19 is rotatably connected inside the support plate 2 above the rack plate 18. The rack plate 18 and gear 19 are meshed. A connecting post 20 is fixedly connected inside the gear 19. The outer side of the two adjacent connecting posts 20 is connected to the inner side of the two adjacent sides of the support plates 2. The wall is rotatably connected, and the two connecting columns 20 are fixedly connected to the outside of the aluminum furnace 3 on the same side, transmitting the rotation of the gear 19 to the aluminum furnace 3. The support plate 2 has a sliding chamber 21 inside, and the bottom end of the rack plate 18 is slidably connected to the bottom end of the inner wall of the sliding chamber 21. The sliding chamber 21 provides movement space for the rack plate 18. When the second electric push rod 17 drives the rack plate 18 to slide, the aluminum furnace 3 can be smoothly tilted around the connection point with the support plate 2 through the transmission of the gear 19 and the connecting column 20, so as to realize the smooth discharge of aluminum liquid.
[0029] The working principle of the tilting aluminum melting furnace provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0030] First, the threaded rod 11 is driven to rotate by the motor 14. Since one sliding block 12 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 11 and the other is slidably connected to the fixed rod 15, when the threaded rod 11 rotates, the two sliding blocks 12 will move synchronously in the sliding groove 16, driving the connecting block 13 to move, thereby adjusting the position of the aluminum furnace 3 on the support frame 1 to place it in a suitable feeding position, as shown in Figure 1. Then, the first electric push rod 7 is activated. The driving end of the first electric push rod 7 pushes the cover plate 8 upward, causing the cover plate 8 to separate from the material port 4, opening the material port 4, and preparing to add aluminum material into the aluminum furnace 3. The aluminum material to be melted is added into the aluminum furnace 3 through the material port 4. During the addition process, care should be taken to distribute the material evenly to avoid the accumulation of aluminum material affecting the subsequent heating and melting effect.
[0031] After the aluminum material is added, the first electric push rod 7 is activated again, causing its drive end to move the cover plate 8 downwards, closing the material inlet 4 to reduce heat loss and prevent debris from falling into the furnace during heating. The combustion assembly is then activated, and natural gas is supplied to the burner head 9 via the natural gas pipe 10. The burner head 9 burns at the top inside the aluminum furnace 3, releasing a large amount of heat to heat the aluminum material inside the furnace. Over time, the aluminum material gradually melts under high temperature. The combustion assembly shown in the figure is well-known in the prior art and is only shown in the figure and in this application for user convenience. The specific combustion assembly can be adjusted according to actual conditions.
[0032] After the aluminum material is completely melted, the molten aluminum needs to be poured out for further processing. At this time, the threaded rod 11 is driven to rotate again by the motor 14, so that the aluminum furnace 3 is moved to a suitable position, as shown in Figure 2. Then, the second electric push rod 17 is activated. The driving end of the second electric push rod 17 pushes the rack plate 18 to slide in the sliding chamber 21. Since the rack plate 18 is meshed with the gear 19, the movement of the rack plate 18 will drive the gear 19 to rotate. When the gear 19 rotates, it drives the connecting column 20, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate. The connecting column 20 is fixedly connected to the aluminum furnace 3, thereby causing the aluminum... Furnace 3 tilts around the rotating connection point with support plate 2. As aluminum furnace 3 tilts, discharge hole 5 gradually tilts downward. Under the action of gravity, molten aluminum flows out from discharge hole 5 and is received by a suitable receiving device for subsequent casting and other processing steps. After the molten aluminum is poured out, the second electric push rod 17 is activated in reverse to gradually restore aluminum furnace 3 to its initial horizontal position. Then, the position of aluminum furnace 3 on support frame 1 can be adjusted again as needed, the combustion components are turned off, and one work cycle is completed. If aluminum melting operation needs to continue, the above steps can be repeated.

Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
