Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of crucible furnace technology, and more specifically, to an environmentally friendly gas-fired thermal circulation crucible furnace. Background Technology

[0002] A gas-fired crucible furnace is a device used for high-temperature experiments and material processing. It typically consists of a crucible, a burner, and heating elements, providing a high-temperature environment for heating, sintering, melting, and other processes of materials. During the operation of a gas-fired crucible furnace, a large amount of waste heat is generated. If this waste heat is not utilized properly, it is equivalent to wasting a portion of energy. In order to reduce energy consumption and operating costs, it is necessary to make full use of the waste heat.

[0003] According to the gas-fired crucible furnace with waste heat recycling disclosed in Chinese Patent CN202420133174.4, this application includes a main body and a connecting block. The connecting block is fixedly connected to one side of the main body, and a furnace body is fixedly connected to the middle of the main body. A combustion chamber is fixedly connected inside the main body, and the furnace body is fixedly connected to the middle of the combustion chamber. A control panel is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting block, and a heating component is arranged inside the connecting block. One end of the heating component is fixedly connected to the middle of the combustion chamber. With the cooperation of structures such as the exhaust pipe, cavity, air inlet pipe, exhaust fan, and groove, the flue gas can not only heat the outer periphery of the furnace body inside the cavity, but also preheat the air through the exhaust fan, thereby improving combustion efficiency and solving the problem of unsatisfactory waste heat recovery. In existing gas-fired crucible furnaces, high-temperature flue gas discharged from the air-fuel boiler is uniformly transported to the flame guide tube by an exhaust fan. Because the high temperature of the flue gas is high, it is easy to damage the inside of the exhaust fan when it passes through it, affecting the service life of the fan. At the same time, some dust and impurities in the high-temperature flue gas will also flow back into the flame guide tube, thus affecting the normal use of the crucible furnace.

[0004] There are currently no effective solutions to the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

Then, the connecting seat 22 on the air input pipe 11 is operated, and the pulling ring 30 drives the limiting rod 26 to disengage from the limiting groove 29 on the insertion pipe 24. At this time, the hollow mounting plate 20 above is pulled to disengage the insertion pipe 24 from the connecting seat 22. The hollow mounting plate 20 and the heat exchange tube 21 are removed from the air preheating chamber 10. By setting up the air preheating chamber and heat exchange components, the air can be preheated by high-temperature flue gas, improving its combustion efficiency. At the same time, the heat exchange components preheat the air through the cooperation of the hollow mounting plate and heat exchange tube. The high-temperature flue gas does not need to pass through the fan to enter the flame guide tube, improving the fan safety. The limiting component in the heat exchange components makes it easy to remove the hollow mounting plate and heat exchange tube from the air preheating chamber for cleaning or replacement, making it more convenient to use.

[0030] In summary, by utilizing the above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model, the air preheating chamber and heat exchange components can be set to preheat the air with high-temperature flue gas, thereby improving its combustion efficiency. At the same time, the heat exchange components preheat the air through the cooperation of the hollow mounting plate and heat exchange tubes, so that the high-temperature flue gas does not need to pass through the fan to enter the flame guide tube, thus improving the fan safety. The limiting components in the heat exchange components make it easy to remove the hollow mounting plate and heat exchange tubes from the air preheating chamber for cleaning or replacement, making it more convenient to use.
