Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of vacuum sintering furnace technology, and in particular relates to a waste heat recovery and utilization device for vacuum sintering furnace. Background Technology
[0002] A vacuum sintering furnace is a special type of furnace primarily used for manufacturing high-performance ceramics, metals, and composite materials. Its basic working principle involves heating the material to be sintered in a vacuum environment, causing the particles within the material to undergo surface diffusion and self-diffusion. This leads to particle aggregation and the formation of new atomic and molecular layers between adjacent particles. Over time, these layers gradually thicken, eventually forming a sintered body.
[0003] The problem with the above technology is that in the existing technology, the waste heat recovery and utilization device of vacuum sintering furnace is generally equipped with an exhaust pipe to directly discharge excess heat gas. These gases contain some ash produced by calcination. This ash will be discharged along with the exhaust pipe. If the ash is not treated, it will affect the subsequent heat recovery and utilization, and the utilization efficiency of the discharged heat gas is not high. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a vacuum sintering furnace waste heat recovery and utilization device that can overcome the above problems or at least partially solve the above problems.
[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows: a waste heat recovery and utilization device for a vacuum sintering furnace includes a vacuum sintering furnace, a first exhaust pipe filter box, and a water tank. The top of the vacuum sintering furnace is fixedly connected to the first exhaust pipe, and the other end of the first exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the filter box. The bottom of the filter box is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe, and the bottom of the connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the water tank. An inlet and an outlet are fixedly connected to one side of the water tank. Supports are fixedly connected to the bottom of both the vacuum sintering furnace and the water tank. A cleaning mechanism is provided on one side of the filter box.
[0006] To clean the filter screen, prevent clogging, and improve filtration efficiency, the cleaning mechanism preferably includes a cross, a T-shaped groove, and a brush plate. One end of the cross is fixedly connected to one side of the filter box. The T-shaped groove is formed on the surface of the cross. One end of the brush plate extends to the inner wall of the T-shaped groove and is slidably connected to it. A handle is fixedly provided on one side of the brush plate. After the baffle is removed, the brush plate is moved to the right side of the T-shaped groove using the handle, so that the brush plate contacts the filter screen. At this time, the filter screen can be cleaned by moving the brush plate up and down using the handle.
[0007] To facilitate cleaning of the filter screen, preferably, the inner wall of the filter box is provided with a sliding groove, and a sliding rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove. The bottom of the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the filter screen, and the top of the filter screen is fixedly connected to a pull block. By pulling the pull block, the filter screen is moved towards the opening until the sliding rod moves to the end of the sliding groove. At this time, the pull block is used to straighten the filter screen. The first magnet embedded inside the filter screen contacts and attracts the second magnet embedded inside the first fixing block, so that the filter screen remains stable in the vertical state.
[0008] To stabilize the filter screen by limiting its position, preferably, two limiting strips are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the filter box, arranged vertically. One side of the top and bottom of the filter box is slidably connected to the opposite surfaces of the two limiting strips. A first magnet is embedded inside the filter screen, and a first fixing block is fixedly connected to the left wall of the inner cavity of the filter box. A second magnet is embedded in the inner wall of the first fixing block. The first magnet and the second magnet attract each other. The limiting strips stabilize the filter screen in a horizontal state, and the first and second magnets keep the filter screen stable in a vertical state.
[0009] In order to collect the swept-down ash, preferably, a baffle plate is fixedly connected to the left wall of the inner cavity of the filter box, and a ash guide pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter box. A cover is threadedly connected to one end of the ash guide pipe. The ash swept down by the brush will fall into the ash guide pipe or slide into the ash guide pipe through the baffle plate. The ash can be processed by opening the cover at one end of the ash guide pipe.
[0010] To facilitate cleaning of the filter screen, preferably, a second fixing block is fixedly connected to one side of the filter box, an opening is provided on one side of the filter box, a baffle is provided on one side of the filter box, a sealing strip is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle, the baffle is slidably connected to the inside of the opening through the sealing strip, a third fixing block is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle, the second fixing block and the third fixing block are fixedly connected by bolts, and a handle is fixedly provided on one side of the baffle. By loosening the bolts, the third fixing block is separated from the second fixing block. At this time, the baffle can be removed from the opening through the handle on one side of the baffle, and the filter screen can be cleaned. The sealing strip, the third fixing block and the second fixing block ensure the airtightness of the filter box.
[0011] To effectively utilize the residual heat from the exhaust, preferably, a copper pipe is installed inside the water tank, which is integrated with the water tank. One end of the copper pipe passes through the top of the water tank and extends into the inner cavity of a connecting pipe. A second exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank, and the other end of the copper pipe passes through the bottom of the water tank and extends into the inner cavity of the second exhaust pipe. The hot air enters the copper pipe through the connecting pipe and heats the copper pipe, which in turn heats the water inside the water tank. This effectively utilizes the residual heat from the exhaust, and the hot air enters the second exhaust pipe through the copper pipe and is then discharged from the second exhaust pipe.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] This invention utilizes a filter screen, a cleaning machine, and copper pipes. The filter screen filters out the discharged hot air, and the cleaning machine cleans the filter screen to prevent clogging and improve filtration efficiency. The hot air passes through the copper pipes to heat the water inside the tank. The hot air then enters the second exhaust pipe through the copper pipes and is discharged from the second exhaust pipe. This solves the problem that vacuum sintering furnace waste heat recovery devices typically use exhaust pipes to directly discharge excess hot air, which contains ash produced during calcination. This ash is discharged with the exhaust pipe, and if the ash is not treated, it will affect subsequent heat recovery and utilization, and the utilization efficiency of the discharged hot air is low.

A handle is fixedly provided on one side of the brush plate 403. After the baffle 21 is removed, the brush plate 403 is moved to the right side of the T-shaped groove 402 by the handle, so that the brush plate 403 contacts the filter screen 10. At this time, the filter screen 10 can be cleaned by moving the brush plate 403 up and down by the handle.
[0024] To facilitate cleaning of the filter screen 10, a sliding groove 12 is provided on the inner wall of the filter box 3.

The bottom of the sliding rod 11 is fixedly connected to the filter screen 10, and a pull block 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the filter screen 10. By pulling the pull block 15, the filter screen 10 is moved toward the opening 25 until the sliding rod 11 moves to the end of the sliding groove 12. At this time, the pull block 15 is used to verticalize the filter screen 10. The first magnet 13 embedded inside the filter screen 10 contacts and attracts the second magnet 17 embedded inside the first fixing block 16, so that the filter screen 10 remains stable in the vertical state.
[0025] To limit and stabilize the filter screen 10, a limiting strip 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the filter box 3. Two limiting strips 14 are provided and are distributed vertically. One side of the top and bottom of the filter box 3 is slidably connected to the opposite side of the two limiting strips 14. A first magnet 13 is embedded inside the filter screen 10. A first fixing block 16 is fixedly connected to the left wall of the inner cavity of the filter box 3. A second magnet 17 is embedded in the inner wall of the first fixing block 16.

[0026] In order to collect the swept-down ash, a baffle plate 19 is fixedly connected to the left wall of the inner cavity of the filter box 3. A guide pipe 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter box 3. A cover is threaded to one end of the guide pipe 18.

At this time, the baffle 21 can be removed from the opening 25 by using the handle provided on one side of the baffle 21, so that the filter screen 10 can be cleaned. The sealing strip 22, the third fixing block 23 and the second fixing block 20 ensure the sealing of the filter box 3.
[0028] To effectively utilize the residual heat from the exhaust, a copper pipe 24 is installed inside the water tank 6. The copper pipe 24 is integrated with the water tank 6. One end of the copper pipe 24 passes through the top of the water tank 6 and extends into the inner cavity of the connecting pipe 5. A second exhaust pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank 6. The other end of the copper pipe 24 passes through the bottom of the water tank 6 and extends into the inner cavity of the second exhaust pipe 7. The hot air enters the copper pipe 24 through the connecting pipe 5 and heats the copper pipe 24. The copper pipe 24 heats the water inside the water tank 6, effectively utilizing the residual heat from the exhaust. The hot air enters the second exhaust pipe 7 through the copper pipe 24 and is then discharged from the second exhaust pipe 7.
[0029] The working principle of this utility model:
[0030] During use, the first exhaust pipe 2 discharges hot air and ash into the filter box 3. The ash is filtered by the filter screen 10. The hot air enters the copper pipe 24 through the connecting pipe 5 and heats the copper pipe 24, which in turn heats the water inside the water tank 6. This effectively utilizes the residual heat from the exhaust air. The hot air then enters the second exhaust pipe 7 through the copper pipe 24 and is discharged from the second exhaust pipe 7. After the vacuum sintering furnace 1 finishes operation, the third fixing block 23 is separated from the second fixing block 20 by loosening the bolts. At this time, the baffle 21 can be removed from the opening 25 by using the handle on one side of the baffle 21, allowing the filter screen 10 to be cleaned. The sealing strip 22, the third fixing block 23, and the second fixing block 20 ensure the airtightness of the filter box 3. The filter box 3 can be cleaned by pulling the pull block. 15 Move the filter screen 10 toward the opening 25 until the sliding rod 11 moves to the end of the sliding groove 12. At this time, the filter screen 10 is verticalized by the pull block 15. The first magnet 13 embedded in the filter screen 10 contacts and attracts the second magnet 17 embedded in the first fixing block 16, so that the filter screen 10 remains stable in the vertical state. After the baffle 21 is removed, the brush plate 403 is moved to the right side of the T-shaped groove 402 by the handle, so that the brush plate 403 contacts the filter screen 10. At this time, the filter screen 10 can be cleaned by moving the brush plate 403 up and down by the handle. The ash swept off by the brush plate 403 will fall into the ash guide pipe 18 or slide into the ash guide pipe 18 through the ash baffle 19. The ash can be processed by opening the cover at one end of the ash guide pipe 18.
