Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flange processing technology, specifically to a heat treatment device for flange shaft processing. Background Technology

[0002] Flanges are common connecting parts, mainly used for connecting shafts or pipe ends. They are also widely used at equipment inlets and outlets to achieve reliable connections between equipment and pipelines, and between different pieces of equipment. They are usually fastened together with bolts and gaskets to ensure the sealing and pressure resistance of the connection. Flanges have a simple structure, are easy to disassemble and assemble, and are easy to maintain. They are an indispensable and important component in fluid transport systems. Flanges require heat treatment during the manufacturing process.

[0003] However, since flanges have different bore diameters, the clamping components in existing heat treatment equipment for flange processing are of fixed size, which often makes it difficult to conveniently pick up and put down the flange body, and is also not conducive to the effective positioning and fixing of flanges with different bore diameters, thus affecting the heat treatment effect; in view of this, we propose a heat treatment equipment for flange shaft processing.

[0025] like Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a heat treatment device for flange shaft processing, including a platform 1, a cooling pool 2 fixedly connected to the top end face of the platform 1, and a clamping assembly 3 provided on the top end face of the platform 1. The clamping assembly 3 includes a mounting frame 301, a vertical cylinder 302, a movable frame 303, a horizontal cylinder 304, a mounting block 305, a servo motor 306, a rotating shaft 307, a limiting plate 308, a support plate 309, a limiting arc frame 310, a bracket 311, a through groove 312, a lifting frame 313, and a limiting groove 314.

[0026] In one embodiment of this utility model, a vertical cylinder 302 is fixedly connected to the top end face of the mounting frame 301, a movable frame 303 is fixedly connected to the output end of the vertical cylinder 302, a horizontal cylinder 304 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the movable frame 303, a mounting block 305 is fixedly connected to the output end of the horizontal cylinder 304, the mounting frame 301 is fixedly connected to the top end face of the platform 1, the included angle between the vertical cylinder 302 and the horizontal cylinder 304 is set at 90 degrees, a lifting frame 313 is fixedly connected to the top end face of the platform 1, a limiting groove 314 is opened on the top end face of the lifting frame 313, the number of limiting grooves 314 is set in several sets, and the several sets of limiting grooves 314 are arranged in a stepped shape.

[0027] A servo motor 306 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting block 305. A rotating shaft 307 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 306. A limiting plate 308 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating shaft 307. A support plate 309 is hinged to the top end face of the limiting plate 308. A limiting arc frame 310 is fixedly connected to the top end face of the support plate 309. A bracket 311 is fixedly connected to the top end face of the support plate 309. A through groove 312 is opened on the side wall of the bracket 311. A limiting block 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom end face of the support plate 309. The limiting block 4 is movably connected to the top end face of the limiting plate 308. The limiting block 4 abuts against the limiting plate 308. At this time, the bracket 311 cannot continue to rotate. Several sets of limiting arc frames 310 are set at equal intervals in a stepped manner. The limiting arc frames 310 limit flanges of different sizes to prevent flange displacement.

[0028] The vertical cylinder 302 controls the height of the movable frame 303 and the support plate 309, while the horizontal cylinder 304 controls the lateral movement of the mounting block 305 and the support plate 309, allowing the flange to move between the lifting frame 313 and the cooling pool 2.

[0029] The flange is placed in the limiting groove 314, and the pallet 309 is moved above the flange. The vertical cylinder 302 drives the pallet 309 to descend. When the bottom of the pallet 309 encounters the flange, the pallet 309 is pushed by the flange, causing the pallet 309 to rotate in the direction of the rotating shaft 307, thereby moving the pallet 309 to the bottom of the flange. At this time, the distribution direction of the pallet 309 is consistent with the direction of the slot between the two sets of lifting frames 313. The pallet 309 can rotate in the opposite direction to reset after losing the limiting position of the flange. At this time, the pallet 309 rises to lift the flange. Then, by driving the vertical cylinder 302 and the horizontal cylinder 304, the flange can be placed in the cooling pool 2 for quenching to improve the strength of the flange.

[0030] After quenching, the pallet 309 is moved back to above the flange, and then the servo motor 306 is driven to rotate 90° so that the distribution direction of the pallet 309 is perpendicular to the slot direction between the two sets of lifting frames 313. The pallet 309 is driven to descend and is squeezed by the lifting frames 313, causing the pallet 309 to rotate and the flange to be supported by the lifting frames 313. Then the pallet 309 is lifted and removed from the flange. The process of grabbing, lifting, moving and releasing the flange is completed automatically, avoiding manual intervention and significantly improving the efficiency of flange loading and unloading in the heat treatment process. It is also compatible with flanges of different sizes, improving the adaptability of the device.

[0031] Several sets of limiting arc frames 310 are arranged in a stepped manner at equal intervals. The limiting arc frames 310 limit flanges of different sizes and automatically achieve corresponding limiting and positioning according to the flange size, preventing the flange from shifting or shaking during handling and heat treatment, improving overall stability and processing consistency. The flange is lifted by the set bracket 311, reducing the contact area between the support plate 309 and the flange. The through groove 312 allows the support 311 to be completely filled with coolant, achieving more comprehensive enclosure and cooling of the flange, avoiding cooling dead corners, effectively improving quenching efficiency and cooling uniformity, helping the flange to maintain a uniform temperature distribution during quenching, avoiding local overcooling or overheating, and improving the quality of heat treatment.

[0032] In addition, an arc-shaped plate 5 is fixedly connected to the end face of the pallet 309. The end of the arc-shaped plate 5 away from the pallet 309 is set upward. When the pallet 309 is lifted and removed from the flange, the arc-shaped plate 5 is movably connected to the inner wall of the lifting frame 313 and the inner wall of the flange to guide the pallet 309 and prevent the pallet 309 from shifting, tilting or getting stuck during the process of detaching from the flange, thereby improving the stability and smoothness of operation.

[0033] In this invention, during use, the vertical cylinder 302 controls the height of the movable frame 303 and the support plate 309, while the horizontal cylinder 304 controls the lateral movement of the mounting block 305 and the support plate 309, allowing the flange to move between the lifting frame 313 and the cooling pool 2. The flange is placed in the limiting groove 314, and the support plate 309 is moved above the flange. The vertical cylinder 302 drives the support plate 309 to descend. When the bottom of the support plate 309 encounters the flange, the support plate 309 is pushed by the flange, causing it to rotate towards the rotating shaft 307, thus moving the support plate 309 below the flange. At this point, the distribution direction of the support plate 309 is consistent with the direction of the slots between the two sets of lifting frames 313. The support plate 309, having lost the flange's limiting position... Under these circumstances, the flange can be rotated and reset in the opposite direction. At this time, the pallet 309 rises to lift the flange. Then, by driving the vertical cylinder 302 and the horizontal cylinder 304, the flange can be placed in the cooling pool 2 for quenching. After quenching, the pallet 309 is driven to move above the flange again. Then, the servo motor 306 is driven to rotate 90° so that the distribution direction of the pallet 309 is perpendicular to the slot direction between the two sets of lifting frames 313. The pallet 309 is driven to descend and is squeezed by the lifting frame 313, causing the pallet 309 to rotate. The flange is then supported by the lifting frame 313. The pallet 309 is then lifted and removed from the flange. The process of grabbing, lifting, moving and releasing the flange is completed automatically, avoiding manual intervention.

[0034] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
