[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, a quenching device for automotive forgings includes a water tank body 1, a crane body 2 mounted on the surface of the water tank body 1, and a hook 3 mounted on the surface of the crane body 2. The water tank body 1 is filled with cooling water during use. The crane body 2 and hook 3 are existing technologies. The specific structure, working principle, and possible control methods of the crane body 2 and hook 3 can be conventionally chosen in this field, and will not be further detailed here. A hook 3 is installed inside the hook 3, and a storage frame 5 is provided at the bottom of the hook 3. A cover plate 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the storage frame 5. A drive mechanism 7 is mounted on the surface of the cover plate 6. The bottom of the connecting mechanism 4 is open... A chute is provided, and a slide plate 8 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the chute. An adjusting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slide plate 8. A fixing plate 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting mechanism 4. The adjusting plate 9 and the fixing plate 11 are used in conjunction. The adjusting plate 9 and the fixing plate 11 are of equal size. The fixing plate 11 and the adjusting plate 9 are set on both sides of the hub. An extension plate 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the adjusting plate 9. A slot is opened on the surface of both the adjusting plate 9 and the extension plate 10. The width of the opening of the extension plate 10 is equal to the width of the inner wall of the slot. A reinforcing rod 12 is detachably connected inside the slot. Limiting mechanisms 13 are installed on both sides of the bottom of the connecting mechanism 4. The setting of the limiting mechanism 13 can reinforce the position of the reinforcing rod 12.

[0023] The connecting mechanism 4 includes a tripod 41, a connecting ring 42, and a fixing block 43. The tripod 41 is installed inside the hook 3. The connecting ring 42 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the tripod 41. The fixing block 43 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the storage frame 5. The connecting ring 42 and the fixing block 43 are fixedly connected. When the hook 3 moves up and down, the tripod 41 is subjected to force, which can drive the connecting ring 42 and the fixing block 43 to move up and down. Based on this, the position and height of the storage frame 5 can be adjusted.

[0024] The drive mechanism 7 includes a motor 71, a lead screw 72, and a moving plate 73. The motor 71 is fixedly connected to the surface of the cover plate 6. The lead screw 72 rotates through the surface of the cover plate 6, and one end of the lead screw 72 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the cover plate 6. The lead screw 72 is threaded through the surface of the moving plate 73, and the surface of the moving plate 73 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cover plate 6. The slide plate 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the moving plate 73. When the operator starts the motor 71, the lead screw 72 rotates and drives the moving plate 73 to move. The slide plate 8 moves with the moving plate 73 and drives the adjusting plate 9 to move in the direction of the fixed plate 11. The adjusting plate 9 and the fixed plate 11 work together to limit the movement of both sides of the hub.

[0025] The limiting mechanism 13 includes a pull rope 131, a collar 132, and a reinforcing block 133. The pull rope 131 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting mechanism 4, the collar 132 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pull rope 131, and the reinforcing block 133 is welded to the bottom of the inner wall of the collar 132. The surface of the reinforcing rod 12 is in contact with the inner wall of the collar 132 and the top of the reinforcing block 133. When the reinforcing rod 12 is installed, the reinforcing rod 12 passes through the collar 132. Then the connecting mechanism 4 is raised, and the weight of the hub applies pressure to the top of the reinforcing rod 12. The collar 132 and the reinforcing block 133 cooperate to support the reinforcing rod 12, thereby increasing the stability of the position of the reinforcing rod 12. The top of the reinforcing block 133 is arc-shaped, and the inner diameter of the collar 132 is larger than the diameter of the reinforcing rod 12.

[0026] Working principle: The operator adjusts the position of the connecting mechanism 4 by moving and lifting the crane body 2 and hook 3, so as to adjust the adjusting plate 9 and the fixed plate 11 to both sides of the hub. Then, the operator starts the motor 71, the lead screw 72 rotates and drives the moving plate 73 to move, which in turn drives the adjusting plate 9 to move through the sliding plate 8. The adjusting plate 9 drives the extension plate 10 to move into the hub. Then, the operator passes the reinforcing rod 12 through the slot, the hub and the collar 132. Then, the operator pulls the connecting mechanism 4 by the crane body 2 and hook 3. The limiting mechanism 13 drives the reinforcing rod 12 to rise, so as to raise the hub and place it above the water tank body 1. During this process, the hub applies pressure to the reinforcing rod 12, and the reinforcing rod 12 supports the hub. The crane body 2 drives the hook 3 to descend, and the reinforcing rod 12 descends, so that the hub can be placed in the cooling water inside the water tank body 1 for quenching treatment. During this process, the adjusting plate 9 and the extension plate 10 cooperate to restrict the position of the hub, so as to reduce the impact of the contact and compression between two adjacent hubs on the cooling effect.
