Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of annealing technology for iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic cores, specifically to a temperature equalization device for annealing iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic cores. Background Technology
[0002] In the production process of iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic cores, amorphous alloy strips are wound into cores of a specific shape. These cores are then placed in specialized fixtures and fed into a specially designed annealing furnace. Annealing is performed under precisely controlled temperatures, with the introduction of protective gas and preset heating and cooling rates. During this crucial annealing process, the amorphous matrix undergoes controlled crystallization, precipitating nanoscale magnetic grains that are uniformly dispersed within the remaining amorphous matrix, thereby achieving the desired nanocrystalline structure and excellent magnetic properties.
[0003] In existing technologies, protective gases are generally introduced directly into the annealing furnace without preheating. When unpreheated protective gases enter the high-temperature furnace, a large amount of heat is required to raise the temperature. This not only results in significant energy waste and prolongs the time it takes for the magnetic core to reach the target annealing temperature, reducing annealing efficiency, but also causes sudden drops in localized temperatures within the furnace, disrupting the stability of the furnace temperature field and further exacerbating temperature inhomogeneity. This makes it difficult to precisely control the annealing process parameters for different parts of the magnetic core, affecting the consistency and stability of the final performance of the core. Therefore, we propose a temperature equalization device for annealing iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic cores to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0025] This application provides a uniform temperature device for annealing iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic cores, which solves the problem in the prior art where protective gas is generally introduced directly into the annealing furnace without preheating, which prolongs the time for the magnetic core to reach the target annealing temperature and reduces annealing efficiency; moreover, it causes a sudden drop in local temperature inside the furnace, which disrupts the stability of the temperature field inside the furnace and further aggravates the problem of uneven temperature inside the furnace.
[0026] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0027] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-2 The image shows a temperature equalization device for annealing iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic cores.
[0028] Example 1: Includes a furnace body 1, with a clamp 2 inside the furnace body 1, and an iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic core 3 on the clamp 2. A preheating unit 4 is provided below the furnace body 1. The preheating unit 4 includes a first air pump 41, a second air pump 42, and a heat exchanger 43.
[0029] An air inlet pipe is provided on one side of the first air pump 41, which is connected to the nitrogen storage container. The first air pump 41 is connected to the furnace body 1 and is used to deliver nitrogen into the interior of the furnace body 1. The second air pump 42 is provided on one side of the top of the furnace body 1 and is used to draw in the high-temperature gas inside the furnace body 1, thereby creating a negative pressure inside the container and guiding the gas in the furnace to form a forced convection circulation from bottom to top. The heat exchanger 43 is provided on one side of the first air pump 41 and is used to discharge the high-temperature gas output by the second air pump 42 and preheat the nitrogen inside the air inlet pipe.
[0030] In this embodiment, the device uses a combination of bottom-blowing and top-exhausting airflow in the furnace body 1 to maintain overall temperature consistency. During the annealing process, the heating element heats the furnace chamber. The heating element is an iron-chromium-aluminum resistance wire. Its principle is that when current passes through the resistance wire, free electrons collide with the metal lattice, converting electrical energy into heat energy. The first exhaust pump 41 at the bottom forces nitrogen into the furnace chamber. The nitrogen entering the lower part of the furnace chamber rises after being heated and mixes with the original high-temperature gas in the furnace chamber. The second exhaust pump 42 at the top extracts the gas from the upper part of the furnace chamber, forming a negative pressure, thereby guiding the gas in the entire furnace chamber to form a forced convection circulation from bottom to top.
[0031] This utility model discloses a temperature equalization device for annealing iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic cores. More specifically, based on Embodiment 1, it is provided according to the appendix... Figure 1 , 3 As shown.
[0032] Example 2: Includes a furnace body 1, with a clamp 2 inside the furnace body 1, and an iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic core 3 on the clamp 2. A preheating unit 4 is provided below the furnace body 1. The preheating unit 4 includes a first air pump 41, a second air pump 42, and a heat exchanger 43.
[0033] An air inlet pipe is provided on one side of the first air pump 41, which is connected to the nitrogen storage container. The first air pump 41 is connected to the furnace body 1 and is used to deliver nitrogen into the interior of the furnace body 1. The second air pump 42 is provided on one side of the top of the furnace body 1 and is used to draw in the high-temperature gas inside the furnace body 1, thereby creating a negative pressure inside the container and guiding the gas in the furnace to form a forced convection circulation from bottom to top. The heat exchanger 43 is provided on one side of the first air pump 41 and is used to discharge the high-temperature gas output by the second air pump 42 and preheat the nitrogen inside the air inlet pipe.
[0034] The first air pump 41 has a first air pipe 44 at its top, which communicates with the furnace body 1. A sealing cover is hinged to the top of the furnace body 1. The second air pump 42 has a second air pipe 45 at its top, which communicates with the sealing cover. A third air pipe 46 is located at one end of the second air pump 42. The heat exchanger 43 includes a dust settling box 431 and a baffle 432. The dust settling box 431 is located on one side of the third air pipe 46 and communicates with it. The baffle 432 is fixedly installed inside the dust settling box 431. The heat exchanger 43 also includes a collection box 433 and a conduit 434. The collection box 433 is located inside the dust settling box 431, and the conduit 434 is located on one side of the dust settling box 431 and communicates with it. The heat exchanger 43 also includes a filter 435 and a heat exchange tube 436; the filter 435 is disposed at the end of the conduit 434; the heat exchange tube 436 is sleeved on the outer surface of the inlet pipe, and the conduit 434 communicates with the heat exchange tube 436. The heat exchanger 43 also includes a heat-conducting plate 437 and an air outlet 438; the heat-conducting plate 437 is disposed inside the heat exchange tube 436, and the heat-conducting plate 437 is distributed in a ring array, and the heat-conducting plate 437 abuts against the inlet pipe; the air outlet 438 is opened on one side of the heat exchange tube 436.
[0035] In this embodiment, when using the device, the iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic core 3 is first placed on the clamp 2 inside the furnace body 1, and the sealing cover on the top of the furnace body 1 is closed. The first suction pump 41 is started, and nitrogen from the nitrogen storage device is transported into the furnace body 1 through the air inlet pipe, the first suction pump 41, and the first gas pipe 44, filling the entire furnace body 1 and providing an inert gas protective environment for the annealing of the magnetic core. Then, the second suction pump 42 is started. The second suction pump 42 draws in the high-temperature gas inside the furnace body 1 through the second gas pipe 45 and the sealing cover, forming a negative pressure inside the furnace body 1. This guides the gas in the furnace chamber to form a forced convection circulation from bottom to top, so that the heat is evenly transferred to all parts of the magnetic core. The high-temperature gas output by the second suction pump 42 enters the dust settling box 431 of the heat exchanger 43 through the third gas pipe 46. Inside the dust settling box 431, the baffle 432 changes the direction of gas flow, causing dust and other impurities to settle. The settled impurities fall into the collection box 433. After dust settling, the gas passes through conduit 434 and filter 435 for further impurity filtration before entering heat exchange tube 436. Inside heat exchange tube 436, the high-temperature gas exchanges heat with the nitrogen in the inlet pipe through the tube wall and heat-conducting fins 437, preheating the nitrogen. The low-temperature gas after heat exchange is discharged from the outlet 438. The preheated nitrogen enters furnace 1 and participates in the magnetic core annealing process. This cycle continues to achieve uniform temperature annealing of the iron-based nanocrystalline magnetic core 3.
