Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of vacuum quenching furnace technology, and particularly relates to a graphite furnace bed with a bracket structure. Background Technology
[0002] Quenching is a heat treatment process in which steel parts are heated to the austenitizing temperature and held for a certain time, and then cooled at a rate greater than the critical cooling rate to obtain a non-diffusion transformation structure, such as martensite, bainite and austenite. Vacuum quenching furnaces are suitable for solution treatment and aging treatment of large and medium-sized vacuum product parts.
[0003] A vacuum quenching furnace is a device that performs quenching treatment in a vacuum environment. Its working principle is to place the workpiece to be treated in the heating chamber, first evacuate the furnace to remove air and impurities, and then heat the workpiece to the predetermined temperature through the heating elements in the heating chamber. After reaching the required temperature, cooling gas is quickly introduced to perform quenching treatment.
[0004] The furnace bed structure of a modern vacuum air quenching furnace includes: several rows of column support members fixedly installed within the heating chamber of the vacuum air quenching furnace; adjacent rows of column support members are fixedly connected at their midpoints by connectors; each row of column support members has a crossbeam at its upper end; each column support member includes two columns, which are fixedly installed on both sides of the lower end of the crossbeam. In use, a stainless steel tray is placed on the crossbeam, and the round workpiece to be heated is placed on the stainless steel tray.
[0005] The existing vacuum gas quenching furnace has a large span between the two columns on either side of the lower end of the hearth beam. Prolonged use can lead to damage due to the high-speed airflow. During repeated heating and cooling processes, the material may experience thermal fatigue and uneven thermal expansion, resulting in fracture, affecting product quality, shortening service life, and posing safety risks. Therefore, it is necessary to design a new vacuum gas quenching furnace hearth structure to solve these technical problems. Utility Model Content
