Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of circulating air heaters, and more particularly to a multi-circulating air heating device for an integrated aluminum alloy heat treatment furnace. Background Technology

[0002] A circulating air heater is an electric heating device mainly used to heat gas flow. Its core component is a stainless steel electric heating tube. These heating tubes contain heating wires, and the gaps are filled with magnesium oxide powder, which has good thermal conductivity and insulation. When current passes through the heating wires, the generated heat is transferred to the surface of the metal tube through the magnesium oxide powder, and then to the gas being heated, thereby achieving the heating purpose. The working principle of the circulating air heater is based on resistance heating. High-temperature resistance wires are evenly distributed inside a high-temperature resistant stainless steel seamless tube. When the resistance wires are energized, they generate heat, which is conducted to the surface of the metal tube through the magnesium oxide powder, and finally transferred to the gas being heated. This structure not only has high thermal efficiency, but also uniform heating. Circulating air heaters are often used in aluminum alloy heat treatment furnaces. In conventional circulating air heaters, one end of the air inlet pipe is connected to a fan. The fan generates airflow into the circulating air heating box. The circulating air heating box heats the incoming airflow with the help of the heating tubes, and then the air outlet pipe connects to the heat treatment furnace. After use, the hot air is circulated back into the air inlet pipe to reduce the power consumption of the circulating air heating box.

[0003] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors believe that in the process of using conventional circulating air heaters, since the hot air needs to be circulated, the airflow can easily carry impurities from the circulating air heating box into the circulating air heating box, causing the surface of the heating tube to be easily contaminated with more impurities, affecting the heating effect of the heating tube, and thus affecting the heating effect of the heat treatment furnace.

[0004] The information disclosed in this background section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the background technology of this application, and therefore may include prior art that is not known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

Silicate shielding rings are installed on the surface of the several fixing blocks to shield the connection between the air inlet duct and the rotating disc. Compared to existing technologies, this method effectively improves the filtration effect of circulating airflow.

[0016] Several limiting slots can also be made on the surface of the rotating disk.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 —4. This application will be described in further detail.

[0023] This application discloses a multi-circulation air heating device for an integrated aluminum alloy heat treatment furnace, referring to... Figure 1 - Figure 2 The system includes an air inlet pipe 1. During use, one end of the air inlet pipe 1 is connected to a fan, which generates airflow that enters the circulating air heating box 2. The circulating air heating box 2 heats the incoming airflow using heating pipes, and then the air outlet pipe 3 connects to the heat treatment furnace. After use, the hot air is circulated back into the air inlet pipe 1, reducing the power consumption of the circulating air heating box 2. A rotating disk 4 is installed on the inner wall of the air inlet pipe 1. A mounting bracket 5 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the rotating disk 4. A filter rack 6 is installed on the inner wall of the mounting bracket 5. The inner wall of the filter rack 6 has a storage groove 7 and filter holes. The filter holes facilitate the removal of larger impurities in the airflow by the filter rack 6, and the storage groove 7 serves to store the filtered impurities. This allows the filter rack 6 to filter the airflow entering the air inlet pipe 1. The rotating disk 4 allows for easy replacement of the mounting bracket 5, avoiding the need to stop the operation of the circulating air heating box 2 to clean the filter rack 6, which would affect the processing efficiency of the circulating air heating box 2.

[0024] Reference Figure 2 A filter screen 8 is installed at one end of the filter frame 6 to block smaller impurities and improve the filtration effect on the airflow. Several fixing bolts 10 are snapped into the inside of both the filter frame 6 and the filter screen 8. Fixing blocks 9 are connected to the surface of the fixing bolts 10 to fix the filter frame 6 and the filter screen 8. After the fixing blocks 9 and the fixing bolts 10 are separated, the filter frame 6 and the filter screen 8 can be disassembled and cleaned. Silicate shielding rings 11 are installed on the surface of the several fixing blocks 9. The surface of the shielding rings 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 5 to shield the connection between the air inlet pipe 1 and the rotating disk 4, thus preventing heat from leaking out from the connection between the air inlet pipe 1 and the rotating disk 4.

The surface of the limiting brackets 13 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 5, so as to fix the mounting frame 5 to the inner wall of the rotating disk 4 by means of the limiting brackets 13 and the limiting slots 12. The mounting frame 5 can be disassembled by separating the limiting brackets 13 and the limiting slots 12. It is more convenient to disassemble the filter frame 6 and the filter screen 8. A spring 14 is installed between the two limiting brackets 13, so as to push one end of the limiting bracket 13 by means of the spring 14, thereby keeping the limiting bracket 13 engaged with the limiting slots 12, avoiding the problem of the mounting frame 5 loosening due to the separation of the limiting brackets 13 and the limiting slots 12. Two support wheels 16 are slidably connected to the bottom end of the rotating disk 4. The surface of the support wheels 16 is rotatably connected to the fixing bracket 15, so as to support the bottom end of the rotating disk 4 by means of the support wheels 16, thereby making it more convenient when the rotating disk 4 rotates.

The inner wall of the rotating disk 4 is connected to a filter frame 6 via a mounting bracket 5.

The mounting bracket 5 can be easily replaced by rotating the rotating disk 4. A filter screen 8 is installed at one end of the filter frame 6 to improve the filtration effect of the airflow. Several fixing bolts 10 are snapped into the inside of the filter frame 6 and the filter screen 8. Fixing blocks 9 are connected to the surface of the fixing bolts 10 to facilitate the disassembly and cleaning of the filter frame 6 and the filter screen 8 after the fixing blocks 9 and the fixing bolts 10 are separated. Silicate shielding rings 11 are installed on the surface of the several fixing blocks 9 to shield the connection between the air inlet pipe 1 and the rotating disk 4.

[0027] Several limiting slots 12 can also be opened on the surface of the rotating disk 4. Two limiting brackets 13 are engaged with the inner wall of the limiting slots 12. The surface of the limiting brackets 13 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 5, so as to fix the mounting frame 5 to the inner wall of the rotating disk 4 by means of the limiting brackets 13 and the limiting slots 12. The mounting frame 5 can be disassembled by separating the limiting brackets 13 and the limiting slots 12. It is more convenient to disassemble the filter frame 6 and the filter screen 8. A spring 14 is installed between the two limiting brackets 13, so as to push one end of the limiting bracket 13 by means of the spring 14, thereby keeping the limiting bracket 13 engaged with the limiting slots 12, avoiding the problem of the mounting frame 5 loosening due to the separation of the limiting brackets 13 and the limiting slots 12. Two support wheels 16 are slidably connected to the bottom end of the rotating disk 4. The surface of the support wheels 16 is rotatably connected to the fixing bracket 15, so as to support the bottom end of the rotating disk 4 by means of the support wheels 16, thereby making it more convenient when the rotating disk 4 rotates.
