Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of quenching equipment technology, specifically to a quenching device for metal chain production and processing. Background Technology

[0002] Chains are generally metal links or rings, mostly used for mechanical transmission and traction; they are also used as chain-like objects to obstruct traffic (such as in streets, river or harbor entrances), and for mechanical transmission. While previous chain processing quenching devices could use centrifugal force to continuously throw out heated high-temperature coolant so that cooler coolant would adhere to the chain for quenching, improving efficiency and speed, and allowing for coolant recycling to reduce costs, these devices could not automatically remove the chain after quenching. This made chain removal cumbersome, increased operator difficulty, and reduced work efficiency.

[0003] To address these technical issues, the existing technology CN220393815U describes a quenching device for metal chain production and processing. This device allows operators to immerse the chain in a quenching tank, with a splash guard preventing water from splashing out. After quenching, a second motor is activated, rotating a rod that drives a threaded sleeve downwards via a threaded rod. A second slider slides within a second groove to ensure stability. The downward movement of the sleeve, via a connecting component, drives a clamping rod into the tank. Then, a drive cylinder retracts, causing the clamping rod to clamp the chain via a transmission rod. The second motor is then activated again, moving the clamping rod and chain out of the quenching tank. Subsequently, the first motor is activated, rotating the mounting box. The first slider slides in the first groove to maintain stability, moving the chain away from the quenching tank. Finally, the drive cylinder releases the chain. This allows for automatic chain removal after quenching, making chain removal convenient, reducing operator difficulty, and improving work efficiency.

[0004] However, certain technical issues may arise during its use. For example, during operation, the operator must first operate the second motor to drive the threaded sleeve to move upwards or downwards. Subsequently, with the linkage of the connecting horizontal and vertical rods, the second mounting box and clamping rod are moved into or out of the quenching tank. After the chain is clamped, fixed, and lifted outside the quenching tank, the operator must further control the first motor. Through the transmission of the connecting horizontal and vertical rods, the mounting box moves the chain away from the quenching tank. This can make the operation process cumbersome and inconvenient for the operator to remove the chain after quenching. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a quenching device for metal chain production and processing that allows workers to easily remove the chain after quenching.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a quenching device for metal chain production and processing is provided, including a mounting base, a quenching pool fixedly installed on one side of the top of the mounting base, and a mounting column set on the other side of the top of the mounting base. A splash guard is fixedly installed on the top of the quenching pool. A placement groove is opened on the top of the mounting column, and a rotating motor is installed in the placement groove. A magnetic ring plate is rotatably installed on the top of the mounting column. A moving rod is fixedly connected to the top of the magnetic ring plate. A sliding groove is opened on one of the outer side walls of the moving rod. A threaded rod is rotatably installed on the top of the sliding groove. The threaded rod extends vertically downward, passes through the inner hole of the moving rod and the magnetic ring plate, and is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft of the rotating motor in the placement groove. The threaded rod is rotatably connected to the moving rod. The threaded rod is coaxially arranged with the magnetic ring plate. A slider is sleeved on the threaded rod in the sliding groove. A horizontal bar fixedly connected to the slider is set above the splash guard. A vertical bar is fixedly connected to the lower side of the horizontal bar away from the moving rod. A mounting box is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vertical bar. A clamping transmission assembly is set in the mounting box.

[0007] In use, this utility model comprises a mounting base, a quenching pool fixedly mounted on one side of the top of the mounting base, and a mounting column on the other side of the top of the mounting base. A splash guard is fixedly mounted on the top of the quenching pool. A placement groove is formed on the top of the mounting column, and a rotating motor is installed within the placement groove. A magnetic ring plate is rotatably mounted on the top of the mounting column, and a moving rod is fixedly connected to the top of the magnetic ring plate. A sliding groove is formed on one outer side wall of the moving rod, and a threaded rod is rotatably mounted on the top of the sliding groove. The threaded rod extends vertically downwards, passes through the inner hole of the moving rod and the magnetic ring plate, and is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft of the rotating motor in the placement groove. The threaded rod is rotatably connected to the moving rod and is coaxially arranged with the magnetic ring plate. A slider fitted onto the threaded rod is installed within the sliding groove. A [missing information - likely a device or structure] is positioned above the splash guard. A horizontal bar is fixed to the slider. A vertical bar is fixed to the lower side of the horizontal bar at the end away from the moving rod. A mounting box is fixed to the bottom of the vertical bar. The mounting box contains a clamping transmission assembly. When using the device, the chain needs to be placed in a quenching tank for quenching. A splash guard prevents water from splashing out of the quenching tank. After quenching, the operator starts a rotating motor, which drives the threaded rod to rotate forward within the magnetic ring plate, the moving rod, and the slide groove. Because the slider is located within the slide groove, it cannot rotate with the threaded rod. Instead, it moves downwards within the slide groove under the rotation of the threaded rod. As the slider moves downwards, the horizontal bar also moves downwards with it, and the mounting box and clamping transmission assembly also move downwards under the transmission of the vertical bar, entering the... Inside the quenching tank, the chain is then clamped by a control clamping transmission assembly. Once clamped, the operator controls a rotating motor to drive a threaded rod to rotate in opposite directions within the magnetic ring plate, moving rod, and slide groove. Because the slider is located within the slide groove, it cannot rotate with the threaded rod but instead moves upwards within the groove under the rotation of the threaded rod. As the slider moves upwards, the horizontal bar also moves upwards, and under the transmission of the vertical bar, it drives the clamping transmission assembly upwards. This causes the clamped chain to move upwards along with the clamping transmission assembly, until it reaches a position above the splash guard, where it disengages from the quenching tank. After the chain reaches the top of the splash guard, the slider will... Driven by the rotation of the threaded rod, the slider continues to move upward and abuts against the top of the chute. At this point, because the slider abuts against the top of the chute, the moving rod and the slider remain relatively fixed. The slider cannot continue to move upward under the rotation of the threaded rod, but instead rotates under the drive of the threaded rod. Through the transmission of the chute and the moving rod, the magnetic ring plate overcomes the attraction and fixation effect with the mounting column and rotates on the mounting column. This causes the crossbar to rotate with the slider, thereby driving the chain, vertical rod, and clamping transmission assembly to rotate. The chain rotates until the moving rod is away from the quenching tank. Then, by controlling the clamping transmission assembly, the clamping transmission assembly is no longer clamping the chain, and the chain is removed from the quenching tank. This makes it convenient for workers to remove the chain after quenching.

[0008] Preferably, the clamping transmission assembly includes a cylinder fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting box. The output shaft end of the cylinder extends vertically downward to the outside of the mounting box. A mounting block is fixedly connected to the output shaft end of the cylinder. A transmission rod is rotatably provided on both the left and right side walls of the mounting block. A clamping rod is rotatably provided at the end of the transmission rod away from the mounting block. The tops of the two clamping rods are respectively rotatably connected to the left and right side walls of the bottom of the mounting box. The clamping transmission assembly includes a cylinder fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting box. The output shaft end of the cylinder extends vertically downward to the outside of the mounting box. A mounting block is fixedly connected to the output shaft end of the cylinder. A transmission rod is rotatably mounted on both the left and right side walls of the mounting block. A clamping rod is rotatably mounted on the end of the transmission rod away from the mounting block. The tops of the two clamping rods are rotatably connected to the left and right side walls of the bottom of the mounting box, respectively. When the device is in use, by controlling the extension or retraction of the cylinder output shaft, the mounting block can be moved down or up, and the transmission rod can be rotated on the mounting block. This causes the clamping rod to rotate at the bottom of the mounting box, so that the ends of the two clamping rods away from the mounting box move closer or further apart, thereby clamping or releasing the chain.

[0009] Preferably, the threaded rod, slider, and moving rod are coaxially arranged. By making the threaded rod, slider, and moving rod coaxial, the stability of the moving rod during operation can be improved.

[0010] Preferably, a limiting rod is fixedly connected to the top of the slide groove, and the limiting rod extends vertically downward through the slider and is fixed to the bottom of the slide groove. By fixing the limiting rod to the top of the slide groove and extending vertically downward through the slider and fixing it to the bottom of the slide groove, the stability of the slider when moving in the slide groove during use can be improved.

[0011] Preferably, the mounting box, cylinder, mounting block, and vertical rod are coaxially arranged. By making the mounting box, cylinder, mounting block, and vertical rod coaxial, it is convenient to clamp or release the chain using the transmission assembly.

A splash guard is fixedly installed on the top of the quenching pool. A placement groove is opened on the top of the mounting column, and a rotating motor is installed in the placement groove. A magnetic ring plate is rotatably installed on the top of the mounting column, and a moving rod is fixedly connected to the top of the magnetic ring plate.

The threaded rod is rotatably connected to the moving rod and is coaxially arranged with the magnetic ring plate. A slider sleeved on the threaded rod is provided in the sliding groove. A [missing information - likely a device or structure] is provided above the splash guard. A horizontal bar is fixed to the slider. A vertical bar is fixed to the lower side of the horizontal bar at the end away from the moving rod. A mounting box is fixed to the bottom of the vertical bar.

[0020] To clearly illustrate the technical features of this solution, the following detailed implementation method will be used to explain the solution.

[0021] like Figures 1-5The present invention discloses a quenching device for metal chain production and processing, comprising a mounting base 6, a quenching pool fixedly mounted on one side of the top of the mounting base 6, and a mounting column 2 disposed on the other side of the top of the mounting base 6. A splash guard 9 is fixedly mounted on the top of the quenching pool. The device is characterized in that: a placement groove 12 is formed on the top of the mounting column 2, a rotating motor 15 is disposed within the placement groove 12, a magnetic ring plate 3 is rotatably disposed on the top of the mounting column 2, a moving rod 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the magnetic ring plate 3, a sliding groove 11 is formed on one outer side wall of the moving rod 1, and a threaded rod is rotatably disposed on the top of the sliding groove 11. 13. The threaded rod 13 extends vertically downward through the inner hole of the moving rod 1 and the magnetic ring plate 3 and is coaxially fixed to the output shaft of the rotating motor 15 in the placement groove 12. The threaded rod 13 is rotatably connected to the moving rod 1. The threaded rod 13 is coaxially arranged with the magnetic ring plate 3. A slider 14 is provided in the sliding groove 11 and sleeved on the threaded rod 13. A horizontal rod 4 is provided above the splash cover 9 and fixed to the slider 14. A vertical rod 5 is fixed to the lower side of the horizontal rod 4 away from the moving rod 1. A mounting box 8 is fixed to the bottom of the vertical rod 5. A clamping transmission assembly is provided in the mounting box 8.

[0022] The clamping transmission assembly includes a cylinder 16 fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting box 8. The output shaft end of the cylinder 16 extends vertically downwards to the outside of the mounting box 8. A mounting block 19 is fixedly connected to the output shaft end of the cylinder 16. Transmission rods 18 are rotatably mounted on both the left and right side walls of the mounting block 19. Clamping rods 17 are rotatably mounted on the end of the transmission rods 18 away from the mounting block 19. The tops of the two clamping rods 17 are rotatably connected to the left and right side walls of the bottom of the mounting box 8, respectively. In use, by controlling the extension or retraction of the output shaft of the cylinder 16, the mounting block 19 can be moved down or up, and the transmission rods 18 can be rotated on the mounting block 19. This causes the clamping rods 17 to rotate at the bottom of the mounting box 8, so that the ends of the two clamping rods 17 away from the mounting box 8 move closer or further apart, thereby clamping or releasing the chain. By making the threaded rod 13, the slider 14 and the moving rod 1 coaxial, the stability of the moving rod 1 during rotation during use can be improved. By fixing a limiting rod 10 to the top of the slide groove 11, and extending vertically downward through the slider 14 and fixing it to the bottom of the slide groove 11, the stability of the slider 14 when moving within the slide groove 11 during use can be improved. By coaxially arranging the mounting box 8, cylinder 16, mounting block 19, and vertical rod 5, it is convenient to clamp or release the chain using the transmission assembly.

[0023] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5The method of using this utility model is as follows: First, the chain needs to be placed inside the quenching tank for quenching. The splash guard 9 can prevent water from splashing out of the quenching tank. After quenching, the operator starts the rotating motor 15, which drives the threaded rod 13 to rotate forward within the magnetic ring plate 3, the moving rod 1, and the slide groove 11. At this time, because the slider 14 is located in the slide groove 11, the slider 14 cannot rotate with the threaded rod 13 in the slide groove 11. Instead, it will move downward on the limiting rod 10 in the slide groove 11 under the rotation drive of the threaded rod 13. When the slider 14 moves downward, the crossbar 4 will also move downward with the slider 14. The mounting box 8 and the clamping transmission assembly move downwards under the transmission of the vertical rod 5, entering the quenching tank. Then, the output shaft of the control cylinder 16 retracts, causing the mounting block 19 to move upwards. This causes the transmission rod 18 to rotate on the mounting block 19, thereby rotating the clamping rod 17 at the bottom of the mounting box 8. This causes the two clamping rods 17 to move closer together from the ends away from the mounting box 8, thus clamping the chain inside the quenching tank. After clamping the chain, the operator controls the rotating motor 15, causing it to drive the threaded rod 13 to rotate in opposite directions within the magnetic ring plate 3, the moving rod 1, and the slide groove 11. At this time, because the slider 14 is located within the slide groove 11, the slider... Slider 14 cannot rotate within the slide groove 11 along with threaded rod 13. Instead, driven by the rotation of threaded rod 13, it moves upward on limiting rod 10 within the slide groove 11, moving to a position above the splash guard 9 and disengaging from the quenching tank. After the chain moves above the splash guard 9, slider 14 continues to move upward under the rotation of threaded rod 13, bringing it into contact with the top of slide groove 11. At this point, because slider 14 is in contact with the top of slide groove 11, moving rod 1 and slider 14 remain relatively fixed. Slider 14 cannot continue to move upward under the rotation of threaded rod 13, but instead rotates under the drive of threaded rod 13, and... Driven by the sliding groove 11 and the moving rod 1, the magnetic ring plate 3 overcomes the adsorption and fixation effect with the mounting column 2 and rotates on the mounting column 2. This causes the horizontal bar 4 to rotate with the slider 14, which in turn drives the chain, vertical bar 5 and clamping transmission assembly to rotate. The chain rotates until the moving rod 1 is away from the quenching tank. Then, the output shaft of the control cylinder 16 extends, causing the mounting block 19 to move down. This causes the transmission rod 18 to rotate on the mounting block 19, which in turn drives the clamping rod 17 to rotate at the bottom of the mounting box 8. This causes the two clamping rods 17 to move away from the mounting box 8, so that the clamping transmission assembly no longer clamps the chain, and the chain is removed from the quenching tank.

[0024] Of course, the above description is not limited to the examples above. Technical features of this utility model not described can be implemented by or using existing technology, and will not be repeated here.
