[0023] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1 to 4 The diagram shows a reduction furnace for preparing tungsten powder, comprising a furnace body 1, which is a vertically oriented circular furnace. A feeding port is located at the top of the furnace body 1, and support legs are fixedly installed at the bottom. A vertically movable mounting plate 8 is installed above the furnace body 1, horizontally positioned and driven by two hydraulic cylinders 7 fixed to the furnace body 1. The telescopic shafts of the two hydraulic cylinders 7 are vertically oriented upwards and fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 8. Two second fixing plates 6 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the furnace body 1, symmetrically positioned with respect to the center of the furnace body 1. Each of the two second fixing plates 6 corresponds one-to-one with one of the two hydraulic cylinders 7, with each hydraulic cylinder 7 fixed to its corresponding second fixing plate 6.

[0024] A horizontal ring platform is fixedly fitted on the top of the furnace body 1. A retaining ring is coaxially fixed at the edge of the ring platform away from the furnace body 1. The retaining ring is located between the ring platform and the mounting plate 8.

[0025] Two semi-circular cover plates 4 are slidably installed on the top of the ring platform. The two cover plates 4 are symmetrically arranged. The two cover plates 4 slide close together and eventually dock to form a complete circular plate, which is used to slide and seal the feed port. The two cover plates 4 slide away and form a gap between them, which is used to open the feed port.

[0026] Two first fixing plates 2 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the retaining ring. An electric push rod 3 is fixedly installed on each of the two first fixing plates 2. The telescopic shafts of the two first electric push rods 3 are horizontally opposite each other. Two cover plates 4 are located between the two first electric push rods 3.

[0030] The motor 9 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting plate 8, and the stirring shaft 10 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the mounting plate 8. The output shaft of the motor 9 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 10. The stirring shaft 10 extends downwards coaxially into the furnace body 1. The opposite ends of the two cover plates 4 are provided with semi-circular through holes for the stirring shaft 10 to make way. When the two cover plates 4 form a circular plate to seal the feeding port, the stirring shaft 10 is in sealed contact with the inner wall of the semi-circular through hole.

[0031] A scraper 11 is fixedly installed on the shaft of the stirring shaft 10 inside the furnace body 1. The end of the scraper 11 away from the stirring shaft 10 slides in contact with the inner wall of the furnace body 1.

[0032] A sliding retaining frame 15 is mounted on the top of the furnace body 1. The retaining frame 15 is located inside the retaining ring, and the stirring shaft 10 passes through the retaining frame 15. The perforation in the middle of the retaining frame 15 matches the scraper 11, and the scraper 11 slides through the perforation in the middle of the retaining frame 15.

[0033] A cleaning brush 16 for cleaning the scraper 11 is fixedly installed inside the perforation in the middle of the U-shaped frame 15.

[0034] A linkage component is provided between the U-shaped frame 15 and the mounting plate 8. The U-shaped frame 15 is driven to cooperate with the mounting plate 8 through the linkage component. The linkage component is used to drive the U-shaped frame 15 to slide back and forth in the horizontal direction.

[0035] Specifically, the linkage component includes a slide rod 17, which is fixedly connected to the U-shaped frame 15. In this embodiment, the U-shaped frame 15 can be fixed to the slide rod 17 in an existing detachable installation manner to facilitate cleaning by the cleaning brush 16.

[0036] The slide rod 17 passes through the retaining ring and slides in a limiting engagement with the retaining ring. A drive shaft 18 and a spring 21 are fixedly mounted on the slide rod 17. A connecting block 20 is fixedly mounted on the outer side wall of the retaining ring. A rack 19 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the mounting plate 8, and the rack 19 is vertically oriented. The teeth on the rack 19 engage with the drive shaft 18 in a transmission engagement. The spring 21 is positioned along the sliding direction of the slide rod 17, with one end fixedly connected to the slide rod 17 and the other end fixedly connected to the connecting block 20.

[0037] In this embodiment, motor 9 is a dual-head motor. The output shaft at the bottom of motor 9 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 10, and a support plate 12 is fixedly mounted radially on the output shaft at the top of motor 9. A signal transmitter 13 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the support plate 12, and a signal receiver 14 is fixedly mounted at the top of the mounting plate 8. The signal receiver 14 is located below the rotation circumference of the signal transmitter 13.

[0038] A heater is installed inside the furnace body 1. The heater is used to raise the temperature inside the furnace body 1. This is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. A microcomputer is fixedly installed on the furnace body 1. Two electric push rods 3, two hydraulic cylinders 7, a motor 9, a signal transmitter 13, a signal receiver 14, and the heater are all electrically connected to the microcomputer.

[0039] Working principle: When preparing tungsten powder using this reduction furnace, tungsten oxide raw material and carbon raw material are first added into furnace body 1 through the feeding port at the top of furnace body 1. After the tungsten oxide raw material is added, the telescopic shafts of the two electric push rods 3 push the two cover plates 4 to slide closer and finally connect. At this time, the two cover plates 4 seal the feeding port of furnace body 1.

[0040] Next, the heater raises the temperature inside furnace 1 until it reaches the reaction temperature. During the reaction, the generated gases are discharged through the gas outlet pipe. After the reaction is complete, the heater stops heating and the tungsten powder is discharged through the discharge pipe.

[0041] After the tungsten powder is discharged, some powder remains on the inner sidewall of the furnace body 1. At this time, the telescopic shafts of the two hydraulic cylinders 7 retract downwards, causing the mounting plate 8 to move downwards. The mounting plate 8 then pushes the stirring shaft 10 downwards. The stirring shaft 10 drives the scraper 11 downwards until the bottom of the scraper 11 contacts the bottom of the furnace body 1. Next, the motor 9 is started, and the output shaft of the motor 9 drives the stirring shaft 10 to rotate. The stirring shaft 10 drives the scraper 11 to scrape away the tungsten powder on the inner sidewall of the furnace body 1.

[0042] After the stirring shaft 10 rotates several times, the signal transmitter 13 and signal receiver 14 are turned on. When the output shaft of the motor 9 drives the support plate 12 to rotate the signal transmitter 13 to directly above the signal receiver 14, the signal receiver 14 receives the signal from the signal transmitter 13 and converts it into an electrical signal, which is then transmitted to the microcomputer, which stops the motor 9. At this time, the scraper 11 is located directly below the perforation in the middle of the U-shaped frame 15.

[0043] Subsequently, the telescopic shafts of the two electric push rods 3 pull the two cover plates 4 away, creating a gap between them. When the gap is much larger than the scraper 11, the two electric push rods 3 are shut off. At this time, the telescopic shafts of the two hydraulic cylinders 7 extend upward and drive the mounting plate 8 to move upward, which in turn pulls the stirring shaft 10 upward. The stirring shaft 10 drives the scraper 11 upward, and the scraper 11 passes through the gap between the two cover plates 4 and the through hole in the middle of the U-shaped frame 15 in sequence.

[0044] When the mounting plate 8 moves upward, it causes the rack 19 to move upward as well. The rack 19 pushes the drive shaft 18 away from the connecting block 20, and the drive shaft 18 drives the slide rod 17 to stretch the spring 21. When the drive shaft 18 disengages from the teeth of the rack 19, under the elastic force of the spring 21, the slide rod 17 drives the drive shaft 18 to move closer to the connecting block 20. During this process, the slide rod 17 drives the return frame 15 to slide back and forth.

[0045] As the scraper 11 slides through the perforation in the middle of the retaining frame 15, the cleaning brush 16 inside the perforation in the middle of the retaining frame 15 brushes off the tungsten powder on the scraper 11. During this process, due to the transmission of the teeth between the drive shaft 18 and the rack 19, as well as the elastic force of the spring 21, the slide rod 17 vibrates and transmits the vibration to the retaining frame 15. At this time, the retaining frame 15 shakes off the tungsten powder on the cleaning brush 16.

[0046] After the scraper 11 moves upward away from the return frame 15, the two hydraulic cylinders 7 can be shut down.

[0047] The tungsten powder brushed off from scraper 11 and shaken off from cleaning brush 16 are finally discharged from furnace body 1 through discharge pipe.

[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
