Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining, and in particular to a heating device. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, materials need to be heated before undergoing processes such as forging. The materials are typically placed in heating equipment for heating, and then removed after heating. Heating equipment generally uses electric heating; therefore, reducing the energy consumption of this equipment is a key technical problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides a heating device.

[0004] The heating device according to the embodiments of this application includes a heating module, a pushing module, and a receiving module.

[0005] The heating module includes a carrier and a heating element located above the carrier. The carrier has a feeding channel and a return channel arranged parallel to the feeding channel. The feeding channel and the return channel extend along the length of the heating equipment. The feeding channel is used to transport a carrier loaded with material, and the return channel is used to transport an empty carrier. The conveying direction of the return channel is opposite to that of the feeding channel. The heating element is used to heat the surrounding environment of the feeding channel and the return channel. A pushing module is located on one side of the carrier and is used to push a carrier loaded with material from one end of the feeding channel into the feeding channel, so that the carrier loaded with material moves along the feeding channel, and to receive an empty carrier from the return channel. A receiving module is located on the side of the carrier away from the pushing module. The receiving module is used to receive a carrier loaded with material moving out from the other end of the feeding channel and to send an empty carrier into the return channel, so that the empty carrier moves along the return channel toward the pushing module.

[0006] In the heating device of this application embodiment, the receiving module receives the heated material on one hand, and sends the empty carrier back to the heating module on the other hand, so that it can flow to the pushing module for use through the return channel. This can reduce the heat loss of the empty carrier, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the heating device.

[0007] In some embodiments, there are multiple feeding channels arranged side by side, and the return channel is located between two of the feeding channels. The pushing module pushes the carrier containing material to the multiple feeding channels in turn. There are two receiving modules, which alternately receive the carrier that moves out from one of the feeding channels.

[0008] In the above embodiment, multiple feeding channels can simultaneously carry multiple carriers. The pushing module alternately pushes the material-loaded carriers into different feeding channels, achieving seamless operation of the pushing module. This allows for the transfer of more material within the same timeframe, improving the overall efficiency of the heating equipment. A return channel is provided between the two feeding channels to carry empty carriers. Empty carriers from the two feeding channels enter the return channel under the action of the receiving module. After being reloaded with material, the empty carriers re-enter the feeding channels under the action of the pushing module. In this way, heat loss from the carriers can be minimized, further reducing the energy consumption of the heating equipment.

[0009] The carrier removed from the feeding channel is received by the receiving module. After the heated material on the carrier is removed, the empty carrier is sent back to the return channel under the action of the receiving module. The two receiving modules take turns receiving the carrier. While one receiving module receives the carrier from the feeding module, the other receiving module pushes the empty carrier into the return module. In this way, the two receiving modules can continuously receive the carrier, which can maximize the efficiency of the receiving module and thus improve the overall efficiency of the heating equipment.

[0010] In some embodiments, the heating module further includes a housing and a first temperature detector disposed on the housing. The carrier and the heating element are both disposed inside the housing. The housing has an inlet and an outlet opposite to the inlet. The feeding channel and the return channel extend from the inlet to the outlet. The pushing module is located on one side of the inlet, and the receiving module is located on the one side of the outlet. The first temperature detector is used to detect the temperature inside the housing.

[0011] In the above embodiment, the outer casing protects the carrier and heating element of the heating equipment from external factors such as foreign object intrusion, which could affect the heating performance of the heating module. Simultaneously, it supports a first temperature detector connected to the heating module. The first temperature detector detects the temperature inside the casing, determines whether the heating element inside the casing is operating as expected, and adjusts the set temperature accordingly to achieve the desired heating temperature. An inlet and an outlet are provided on both sides of the casing along its length, arranged opposite to each other. The ends of the feeding channel and the return channel are located at the inlet and outlet positions. This arrangement allows the heating equipment to transport the carrier and materials through simple linear motion, making it a convenient implementation method.

[0012] In some embodiments, the heating module further includes a second temperature detector disposed at the discharge port, the second temperature detector being used to detect the temperature at the discharge port.

[0013] In the above embodiment, the second temperature detector at the discharge port detects the temperature at the discharge port, thereby determining the temperature of the heated material and whether the heating has met the requirements. This allows for further processing of the material. Thus, a simple second temperature detector allows for direct observation of the heating effect of each material, ensuring that all heated materials used subsequently are fully qualified.

[0014] In some embodiments, the feeding module includes a first pushing mechanism, a second pushing mechanism, and a third pushing mechanism. The first pushing mechanism includes a first receiving platform, a first pushing member, and a first driving assembly. The first receiving platform is used to carry the carrier containing material. The first driving assembly is connected to the first pushing member and is used to drive the first pushing member to move relative to the first receiving platform along the length direction of the heating device to push the carrier containing material into the feeding channel. The second pushing mechanism is connected to the first pushing mechanism and is used to push the first pushing mechanism as a whole to move along the length direction of the heating device. The third pushing mechanism is connected to the second pushing mechanism and is used to push the first pushing mechanism and the second pushing mechanism as a whole to move along the width direction of the heating device.

[0015] In the above embodiment, the first receiving platform of the pushing module is a specific position for carrying the carrier and materials. The first pushing member, under the action of the first driving assembly, pushes the receiving platform along the length of the heating equipment, thereby pushing the carrier loaded with materials into the feeding channel. The simple linear motion of the first pushing member achieves the transfer of the carrier within the feeding channel. The second pushing mechanism is connected to the first pushing mechanism, and the second pushing mechanism drives the first pushing mechanism to move horizontally along the length of the heating equipment, accurately receiving materials. The third pushing mechanism is connected to the second pushing mechanism, and through the further connection between the second and first pushing mechanisms, drives the first and second pushing mechanisms to move horizontally along the width of the outer shell, thereby enabling the first receiving platform to move along the width of the heating equipment, sending the carrier loaded with materials into different feeding channels. Thus, under the combined action of the linear motion of the three pushing mechanisms, materials can be transported from the outside to different feeding channels, making the operation simple, easy to control, and intuitive.

[0016] In some embodiments, the receiving module includes a first receiving mechanism and a second receiving mechanism connected to the first receiving mechanism. The first receiving mechanism includes a second receiving platform, a second pushing member, a second driving assembly, and a second pushing assembly. The second receiving platform is used to carry a carrier or an empty carrier that has been moved out through the feeding channel. The second driving assembly is connected to the second pushing member and is used to drive the second pushing member to move relative to the second receiving platform along the length direction of the heating device to push the empty carrier into the return channel. The second receiving mechanism is connected to the first receiving mechanism and is used to push the first receiving mechanism as a whole to move along the width direction of the heating device.

[0017] In the above embodiment, the second receiving platform can contact the feeding channel near the discharge port. The empty container corresponding to the material heated by the heating element in the feeding channel is received by the second receiving platform. The second driving assembly drives the second pushing member to move horizontally along the length of the heating equipment. Under the pushing action of the second pushing member, the empty container is pushed along the length of the heating equipment into the return channel, realizing the return of the container. The second receiving mechanism is connected to the first receiving mechanism. The second receiving mechanism drives the first receiving mechanism to move along the length of the heating equipment, so that the second receiving platform receives the container loaded with material from the feeding channel and moves the empty container to the entrance of the return channel via the second receiving platform. Thus, through a simple and easy-to-operate mechanism, the receiving of the container and the preparation for the return of the empty container are achieved in a short time, reducing equipment energy consumption and improving return efficiency.

[0018] In some embodiments, the heating device further includes a feeding module and a feeding module, wherein the feeding module is disposed between the feeding module and the feeding module, the feeding module is used to store materials, and the feeding module is used to transfer materials in the feeding module to the feeding module.

[0019] In the above embodiment, the feeding module is used to store materials. The materials located in the feeding module are moved to the pushing module by the feeding module. The feeding module and the feeding module cooperate with each other to transfer the materials from outside the equipment to the first receiving platform of the pushing module. In this way, the materials only need to be processed by the feeding module and the feeding module to accurately move to the pushing mechanism, preparing them for subsequent heating.

[0020] In some embodiments, the feeding module includes a turntable and a plurality of storage cylinders disposed on the turntable. The storage cylinders are used to store a plurality of stacked materials. The turntable drives the plurality of storage cylinders to rotate so that at least one of the storage cylinders feeds materials to the feeding module.

[0021] In the above embodiment, when a storage hopper is completely empty, the empty hopper can be rotated to a side away from the feeding module by rotating the turntable. This allows another full storage hopper to approach the feeding module and continue feeding material. The empty storage hopper can be manually refilled, and when the turntable rotates to the corresponding position, that hopper can continue feeding material. In this way, the feeding module can ensure uninterrupted material delivery, which helps improve the working efficiency of the heating equipment.

[0022] In some embodiments, the top of the storage cylinder is provided with an opening, and the feeding module includes an ejection mechanism, which includes a push rod located below the storage cylinder for passing through the storage cylinder to push the material in the storage cylinder toward the opening of the storage cylinder.

[0023] In the above embodiment, multiple materials can be stored in a storage cylinder. The top of the storage cylinder has an opening, and the materials inside can be pushed upwards sequentially by the push rod of the ejection mechanism. After the material at the first position is fed to the feeding module, the material at the second position moves to the position of the material at the first position. After the feeding module completes the feeding of the material at the first position, it immediately feeds the material originally located at the second position. In this way, the feeding module can continuously feed materials, realizing the uninterrupted movement of materials from the feeding module to the pushing module, which can save a lot of time and improve the feeding efficiency.

[0024] In some embodiments, the feeding module includes an adsorption element and a three-dimensional drive mechanism. The adsorption element is used to adsorb the material in the feeding module, and the three-dimensional drive mechanism is connected to the adsorption element and is used to drive the adsorption element to move in three-dimensional space to transfer the material from the feeding module to the pushing module.

[0025] In the above embodiment, the material at the top of the storage cylinder, which is moved upward by the feeding module's ejection mechanism, is adsorbed by the adsorption element. The adsorption element can both adsorb and release the material. The three-way drive mechanism can drive the adsorption element to move in three-dimensional space. In conjunction with the action of the adsorption element, the material from the feeding module can be smoothly transferred to the first loading platform of the pushing module, thereby realizing the subsequent heating of the material. In this way, the material is transferred from the outside to the feeding channel through simple mechanical movement, realizing the material preparation before heating, and the control of the material position is relatively precise and fast.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a partial cross-sectional view of the three-dimensional structure of a heating device 100 according to some embodiments of the present invention. The heating device 100 of the embodiments of this application includes a heating module 10, a pushing module 20, and a receiving module 30.

[0035] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional view of the three-dimensional structure of the heating module 10 according to some embodiments of the present invention. The heating module 10 includes a support member 11 and a heating element 12 located above the support member 11. The support member 11 is provided with a feeding channel 111 and a return channel 112 arranged parallel to the feeding channel 111. The feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112 extend along the length direction of the heating device 100. The feeding channel 111 is used to transport a carrier loaded with material, and the return channel 112 is used to transport an empty carrier. The conveying direction of the return channel 112 is opposite to the conveying direction of the feeding channel 111. The heating element 12 is used to heat the periphery of the feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112. The surrounding environment is heated; the pushing module 20 is located on one side of the carrier 11 and is used to push the carrier 300 containing material 200 from one end of the feeding channel 111 into the feeding channel 111, and to receive the empty carrier 300 from the return channel 112; the receiving module 30 is located on the side of the carrier 11 away from the pushing module 20 and is used to receive the carrier 300 containing material 200 that moves out from the other end of the feeding channel 111, and to send the empty carrier 300 into the return channel 112 so that the empty carrier 300 moves toward the pushing module 20.

[0036] In the heating device 100 of this application embodiment, the receiving module 30 receives the heated material 200 on one hand, and sends the empty carrier 300 back to the heating module 10 on the other hand, so that it can flow to the pushing module 20 for use through the return channel 112. This can reduce the heat loss of the empty carrier 300, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the heating device 100.

[0037] Specifically, the heating module 10 is a functional unit integrated inside the heating device 100, which can convert electrical energy into controllable heat energy and accurately transfer it to the components located on the carrier 11. The carrier 11 is a base plate that carries the material 200 to be heated, and a feeding channel 111 and a return channel 112 are provided on the base plate. The feeding channel 111 is located inside the heating module 10, which is the path for the material 200 and the carrier 300 before heating to move efficiently and accurately from the conveying source within the heating module 10. The return channel 112 is the path for transporting the empty carrier 300 after the material 200 has been heated back to the conveying source. The directional transmission of the feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112 ensures that the material 200 is supplied to the heating module 10 sufficiently and continuously.

[0038] The heating element 12 is the core component of the heating module 10. It can be in the form of a heating wire, which generates heat by utilizing the Joule effect when current passes through a resistive material, thus converting electrical energy into thermal energy. In some embodiments of this application, the material 200 to be heated is placed on a carrier 300 on a support member 11, and the heating element 12 of the heating module 10 is located above the support member 11, providing precisely adjustable and controllable heat energy output for heating the material 200.

[0039] The pushing module 20 is a mechanism integrating power, transmission, and control components, which can controllably push the material 200 from an initial position to another position along a specific path and direction. For example, the pushing module 20 can move the carrier 300 containing the material 200 from one end of the feeding channel 111 into the feeding channel 111, and can also receive an empty carrier 300 from the return channel 112. After being loaded with material 200, the empty carrier 300 can be transported back to the feeding channel 111 by the pushing module 20, realizing the directional displacement and position cycle of the carrier 300 within the heating module 10.

[0040] The receiving module 30 is located on the side of the carrier 11 away from the pushing module 20. It is a mechanism for receiving and temporarily storing the heated material 200 and the carrier 300 pushed by the pushing module 20 from the feeding channel 111. When the carrier 300 carrying the material 200 moves to the other end of the feeding channel 111 by the compression of the subsequent carriers 300, it is received by the receiving module 30. After transferring the heated material 200, the empty carrier 300 is pushed into the return channel 112 and moves to the pushing module 20 along the path and in a specific direction of the return channel 112.

[0041] Thus, the carrier 300, after being heated by the heating module 10, can circulate between the pushing module 20, the heating module 10, and the receiving module 30, which can greatly reduce the heat loss of the carrier 300. That is, when the carrier 300 is pushed back into the heating module 10 by the pushing module 20, the heating module 10 only needs to make up for the heat lost by the carrier 300 in the receiving module 30 and the pushing module 20, without having to heat the empty carrier 300 from the initial temperature. This can greatly reduce the energy consumption of the heating equipment 100, and significantly improve the economy and environmental friendliness of the heating equipment 100.

[0042] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the feeding module 20 moves by pushing the first carrier 300 containing material 200 so that the carriers 300 in the feeding channel 111 press against each other and move along the feeding channel 111; the receiving module 30 moves by pushing the first empty carrier 300 so that the empty carriers 300 in the return channel 112 press against each other and move along the return channel 112.

[0043] In the above embodiment, the carrier 300 containing material 200 is pushed by the pushing module 20 on the feeding channel 111, and the empty carrier 300 is pushed by the receiving module 30 on the return channel 112. The first carrier 300 moves from the corresponding module to the corresponding channel, replacing the original carrier 300 in the corresponding position. The original carriers 300 in the corresponding channel move on the corresponding channel through mutual squeezing. In this way, the carriers 300 move in a sequential pushing manner, and no conveying failure occurs in the smooth channel, which can effectively reduce the manufacturing and maintenance costs of the heating equipment 100.

[0044] Specifically, the carriers 300 containing material 200 are pushed sequentially by the pushing module 20. The carriers 300 in the feeding channel 111 press against each other. The carrier 300 originally located in the feeding channel 111 undergoes horizontal displacement along the feeding channel 111 under the action of the first carrier 300 containing material 200. In turn, the carrier 300 can move from one side of the feeding channel 111 to the other side. Under the action of the receiving module 30, the empty carriers 300 in the return channel 112 are moved along the return channel 112 by pushing the first empty carrier 300. In turn, the empty carriers 300 can move from one side of the return channel 112 to the other side. Thus, each carrier 300 located in the feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112 can move relative to each other through mutual compression, without relying on additional mechanisms to transport the carriers 300, making the movement of the carriers 300 simple and reliable. In addition, the carriers 300 are in contact with each other in the channel and are arranged closely together, so the heating module 10 can carry more carriers 300 within a certain range and heat more material 200, making the heating equipment 100 more compact overall.

[0045] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 In some embodiments, there are multiple feeding channels 111 arranged in parallel, and a return channel 112 is arranged between two of the feeding channels 111. The pushing module 20 pushes the carrier 300 containing the material 200 to the multiple feeding channels 111 in turn.

[0046] In the above embodiment, the feeding module 20 operates without gaps, enabling it to transfer more materials 200 within the same time frame, which improves the overall working efficiency of the heating equipment 100. A return channel 112 is provided between the two feeding channels 111 to carry and return the empty carrier 300, maximizing space utilization and reducing the heating area of ​​the heating equipment 100, thus further reducing the energy consumption of the heating equipment 100.

[0047] Specifically, in some embodiments of this application, multiple feeding channels 111 are identical and installed and arranged in parallel along the second direction. These multiple feeding channels 111 share a common task, allowing the heating device 100 to utilize a slightly larger space to reduce the processing time required to heat the same quantity of material 200, thereby increasing the capacity of the heating device 100. The pushing module 20 alternately pushes the carrier 300 containing material 200 to different feeding channels 111, ensuring that the carrier 300 of each feeding channel 111 gradually moves away from the pushing module 20 along the first direction within a certain time. Simultaneously, the continuous operation of the pushing module 20 also allows each carrier 300 on each feeding channel 111 to move in the first direction in the shortest possible time, minimizing the heating time while maintaining the desired heating effect. Here, the first direction is the extension direction of the feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112, i.e., the length direction of the heating device 100, and the second direction is the width direction of the heating device 100.

[0048] The return channel 112, located between the two feeding channels 111, transports the empty carrier 300 back to the pushing module 20. The return channel 112, positioned between the two feeding channels 111, allows the heated empty carrier 300 from both feeding channels 111 to be transported along the second direction over the same distance to the return channel 112. This reduces the time it takes for the empty carrier 300 to travel from the outlet of the feeding channel 111 to the return channel 112, improving the overall efficiency of the heating equipment 100. Furthermore, this arrangement of the return channel 112, being on the same plane as the feeding channels 111 and closely spaced, helps to increase the heating output of the heating equipment 100 while reducing its overall size and footprint.

[0049] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a perspective view of the receiving module 30 according to some embodiments of the present invention. In some embodiments, there are two receiving modules 30, and the two receiving modules 30 alternately receive the carrier 300 removed from one of the feeding channels 111.

[0050] In the above embodiment, the two receiving modules 30 alternately receive the carrier 300, so that the carrier 300 is received immediately after it leaves the feeding channel 111. The pushing module 20 does not need to wait for the receiving module 30 to receive the carrier 300, and can continuously push the carrier 300 into the feeding channel 111. This can maximize the efficiency of the pushing module 20 and the receiving module 30, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the heating equipment 100.

[0051] Specifically, the two receiving modules 30 are located on the same horizontal plane. The carrier 300, which is removed from the feeding channel 111, is received by the receiving module 30. After the heated material 200 on the carrier 300 is removed, the empty carrier 300 is sent back to the return channel 112 under the action of the receiving module 30. The two receiving modules 30 take turns receiving the carrier 300. While one receiving module 30 receives the carrier 300 from the feeding channel 111, the other receiving module 30 pushes the empty carrier 300 into the return channel 112. After one receiving module 30 completes the action of receiving the carrier 300, it then contacts the return channel 112 and transports the empty carrier 300 into the return channel 112. In this way, the two receiving modules 30 can continuously receive the carriers 300 sequentially conveyed by the pushing module 20, ensuring that the pushing module 20 can work continuously without interruption. The receiving module 30 and the pushing module 20 cooperate to realize the continuous conveying of each corresponding carrier 300 of the material 200 before and after heating on the feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112, which can maximize the efficiency of the heating module 10, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the heating equipment 100 and reducing energy consumption.

[0052] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 In some embodiments, the heating module 10 further includes a housing 13 and a first temperature detector 14 disposed on the housing 13. The carrier 11 and the heating element 12 are both disposed inside the housing 13. The housing 13 is provided with an inlet 131 and an outlet 132 opposite to the inlet 131. The feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112 extend from the inlet 131 to the outlet 132. The pushing module 20 is located on one side of the inlet 131, and the receiving module 30 is located on one side of the outlet 132. The first temperature detector 14 is used to detect the temperature inside the housing 13.

[0053] In the above embodiment, the outer casing 13 can protect the carrier 11 and heating element 12 of the heating device 100 to prevent the heating module 10 from being affected by external factors such as foreign object intrusion, thus protecting its heating performance. Simultaneously, it can support the first temperature detector 14 connected to the heating module 10. The first temperature detector 14 can detect the temperature inside the outer casing 13 and determine whether the heating element 12 inside the outer casing 13 is operating as expected, thereby adjusting the set temperature to achieve the required heating temperature. An inlet 131 and an outlet 132 are provided on both sides of the outer casing 13 along its length. The inlet 131 and outlet 132 are arranged opposite each other. The ends of the feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112 are located at the inlet 131 and outlet 132. This arrangement of the heating device 100 allows for the simplest linear motion to transport the carrier 300 and the material 200, making it a simple implementation method.

[0054] Specifically, in some embodiments of this application, the outer shell 13 of the heating module 10 can be a cuboid structure that encloses the heating module 10. The outer shell 13 can be made of insulating material or metal and has reliable grounding. The outer shell 13 can isolate the heating element of the heating module from the outside world, avoiding safety accidents caused by accidental contact by personnel, as well as short circuits and damage to the heating element caused by foreign object intrusion. At the same time, the outer shell 13 can also help to transfer heat more evenly to the carrier 11, making the heating of the material 200 more uniform, and reducing heat loss to the surrounding environment, which can further reduce the energy consumption of the heating equipment 100.

[0055] A first temperature detector 14 is provided on the outer casing 13. The first temperature detector 14 can capture the infrared radiation energy emitted from the discharge port 132 through infrared detection, convert it into electrical energy and present it as a readable temperature display, and detect the temperature inside the outer casing 13 in real time. The temperature inside the outer casing 13 reflected by the first temperature detector 14 can roughly determine whether the current heating temperature of the heating element 12 on the material 200 meets the requirements or exceeds the expectations. Therefore, the heating power of the heating element 12 can be adjusted accordingly to ensure that the material 200 is accurately heated.

[0056] The outer casing 13 has an inlet 131 and an outlet 132 opposite to the inlet 131 on both sides along its length. Specifically, the inlet 131 is the entrance for the material 200 to enter the heating module 10, ensuring that the material 200 enters the equipment in a predetermined path and manner; the outlet 132 is where the material 200 is removed from the heating module 10 after heating, effectively guiding the heated material 200 to the next process or storage point. The feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112... Located at the inlet 131 and outlet 132 respectively, the carrier 300 containing material 200 from the pushing module 20 and the heated material 200 and carrier 300 received by the receiving module 30 ensure, under the action of the inlet 131 and outlet 132, that the material 200 and carrier 300 can only enter and exit the heating module 10 from the openings of the inlet 131 and outlet 132, preventing the carrier 300 from failing to correctly enter the feeding channel 111 and return channel 112 in special circumstances.

[0057] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 In some embodiments, the heating module 10 further includes a second temperature detector 15 disposed at the discharge port 132, the second temperature detector 15 being used to detect the temperature at the discharge port 132.

[0058] In the above embodiment, the second temperature detector 15 at the discharge port 132 detects the temperature at the discharge port 132, thereby determining the temperature of the heated material 200. This allows for a judgment on whether the heating of the material 200 has met the requirements, enabling further processing of the material 200. Thus, the heating effect of each material 200 can be directly observed through the simple second temperature detector 15, ensuring that the heated material 200 used subsequently is fully qualified.

[0059] Specifically, the second temperature detector 15 can capture the infrared radiation energy at the discharge port 132 through infrared detection, convert it into electrical energy and present it as a readable temperature display. It can reflect the temperature at the discharge port 132 in real time. The carrier 300 containing the material 200, which has been heated by the heating module 10, is removed from the discharge port 132. Under the action of the second temperature detector 15, the surface temperature of the material 200 that has been heated by the heating module 10 can be detected in the first time. The heating of the material 200 can be judged based on the detected temperature.

[0060] Furthermore, the second temperature detector 15 is connected to the temperature detector drive 16. The second temperature detector 15 can move in a second direction under the action of the temperature detector drive 16 to measure the surface temperature of the heated material 200 removed from different feeding channels. In this way, the heated material 200 can be inspected through simple and quick temperature detection, helping the operator determine whether the heated material 200 is usable in the shortest possible time. For example, the temperature detector drive 16 can be a pneumatic drive, using compressed gas as the working medium to convert the gas pressure energy into mechanical energy, thereby driving the second temperature detector 15 to move linearly in the second direction.

[0061] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a perspective view of the feeding module 20 according to some embodiments of the present invention. In some embodiments, the feeding module 20 includes a first pushing mechanism 21, a second pushing mechanism 22, and a third pushing mechanism 23. The first pushing mechanism 21 includes a first receiving platform 211, a first pushing member 212, and a first driving assembly 213. The first receiving platform 211 is used to support a carrier 300 containing material 200. The first driving assembly 213 is connected to the first pushing member 21 and is used to drive the first pushing member 212 to move relative to the first receiving platform 211 in a first direction, so as to push the carrier 300 containing material 200 on the first receiving platform 211 into the feeding channel 111. The second pushing mechanism 22 is connected to the first pushing mechanism 21 and is used to push the first pushing mechanism 21 as a whole to move in the first direction. The third pushing mechanism 23 is connected to the second pushing mechanism 22 and is used to push the first pushing mechanism 21 and the second pushing mechanism 22 as a whole to move in a second direction.

[0062] In the above embodiment, the first receiving platform 211 of the pushing module 20 is a specific position for carrying the carrier 300 and the material 200. Under the action of the first driving component 213, the first pushing member 212 pushes the carrier 300 carrying the material 200 on the first receiving platform 211 to move along the first direction, that is, the length direction of the outer shell 13 of the heating device 100, thereby pushing the carrier 300 carrying the material 200 into the feeding channel 111. The carrier 300 is conveyed in the feeding channel 111 through the simple linear movement of the first pushing member 212. The second pushing mechanism 22 is connected to the first pushing mechanism 21. The second pushing mechanism 22 pushes the first pushing mechanism 21 to move as a whole, so that the first pushing mechanism 21 can move horizontally as a whole in the first direction to accurately receive the material 200.

[0063] The third pushing mechanism 23 is connected to the second pushing mechanism 22, and the second pushing mechanism 22 is further connected to the first pushing mechanism 21. This mechanism drives the first pushing mechanism 21 and the second pushing mechanism 22 to move horizontally along the second direction, i.e., the width direction of the outer casing 13. This allows the first receiving platform 211 to move in the second direction, thus feeding the carrier 300 containing material 200 into different feeding channels 111. In this way, under the combined linear motion of the three pushing mechanisms, material 200 can be transported from the outside to different feeding channels 111, making the operation simple, easy to control, and intuitive.

[0064] Specifically, the material 200 transferred by the feeding module 50 is placed in the carrier 300 on the first receiving platform 211 of the first pushing mechanism 21. In some embodiments of this application, the first receiving platform 211 can be a plane with a groove, the width of which is slightly larger than the length of the carrier 300, allowing the carrier 300 to slide within the groove. The carrier 300 contacts the first pushing member 212 extending into the groove. The first pushing member 212 includes a pushing block 2121, two first pushing rods 2122, and two square blocks 2123 that contact the two inner sides of the groove along its length. The first pushing rods 2122 can move smoothly in the first direction under the guidance of the square blocks 2123. The first driving assembly 213 is connected to the pushing block 2121 and drives the first pushing member 212 to move along the first direction. The first pushing member 212 can push the carrier 300 from the first receiving platform 211 into the feeding channel 111, realizing the movement of the material 200 from the pushing module 20 to the heating module 10.

[0065] The second pushing mechanism 22 can be connected to the first pushing mechanism 21 as a whole through the first connecting plate 221. The second pushing mechanism 22 can be driven by a motor to move in the first direction, thereby driving the first pushing mechanism 21 to move as a whole in the first direction, so that the first receiving platform 211 and the material 200 transferred by the feeding module 50 are at the same distance in the first direction.

[0066] The third pushing mechanism 23 is connected to the second pushing mechanism 22 via the second connecting plate 231. The third pushing mechanism 23 drives the second connecting plate 231 to move in the second direction, thereby causing the second pushing mechanism 22 and the first pushing mechanism 21 to move together in the second direction. The material pushing module 20 can be mounted on the flat plate 24. In this way, the material pushing module 20 can move in both the first and second directions, allowing the carrier 300 on the first receiving platform 211 to smoothly receive the material 200 and push the carrier 300 containing the material 200 to the feeding channel 111.

[0067] For example, each of the aforementioned pushing mechanisms can be an electric pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism can be driven by a motor rotating to rotate a lead screw. The rotational motion of the lead screw can be forcibly converted into the linear motion of each of the aforementioned connecting plates, thereby driving the movement of each of the aforementioned pushing mechanisms. Moreover, changing the rotation direction of the motor can change the movement direction of each of the aforementioned pushing mechanisms. In this way, the control of the pushing module 20 is more precise and responsive, with greater thrust and better rigidity, which is beneficial for accurately controlling the movement of the material 200 and the carrier 300 in various directions.

[0068] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 In some embodiments, the receiving module 30 includes a first receiving mechanism 31 and a second receiving mechanism 32 connected to the first receiving mechanism 31. The first receiving mechanism 31 includes a second receiving platform 311, a second pusher 312, and a second drive assembly 313. The second receiving platform 311 is used to carry the carrier 300 or the empty carrier 300 that has been moved out through the feeding channel 111. The second drive assembly 313 is connected to the second pusher 312 and is used to drive the second pusher 312 to move relative to the second receiving platform 311 in a first direction to push the empty carrier 300 into the return channel 112. The second receiving mechanism 32 is connected to the first receiving mechanism 31 and is used to push the first receiving mechanism 31 as a whole to move in the first direction.

[0069] In the above embodiment, the second receiving platform 311 can contact the feeding channel 111 near the discharge port 132. The material 200 heated by the heating element 12 in the feeding channel 111 is received by the corresponding empty carrier 300 by the second receiving platform 311. The second driving component 313 drives the second pushing member 312 to move horizontally in the first direction. Under the pushing action of the second pushing member 312, the empty carrier 300 is pushed into the return channel 112 along the first direction, realizing the return of the carrier 300.

[0070] The second receiving mechanism 32 is connected to the first receiving mechanism 31. The second receiving mechanism 32 drives the first receiving mechanism 31 to move along the first direction, so that the second receiving platform 311 receives the carrier 300 containing material 200 from the feeding channel 111, and moves the empty carrier 300 to the entrance of the return channel 112 via the second receiving platform 311. In this way, the receiving of the carrier 300 and the preparation for the return of the empty carrier 300 are realized in a short time through a simple and easy-to-operate mechanism, which reduces equipment energy consumption and improves return efficiency.

[0071] Specifically, the two receiving modules 30 are located on the side of the heating module 10 away from the pushing module 20, and the two receiving modules 30 are located on the same horizontal plane. The second receiving platform 311 of the first receiving mechanism 31 may be provided with a groove with the same width as the first receiving platform 211. This groove is used to receive the heated carrier 300 containing material 200 removed from the feeding channel 111. When the material 200 moves from the end of the feeding channel 111 near the pushing module 20 to the end near the receiving module 30, the second receiving mechanism 32 drives the first receiving mechanism 31 to move along the first direction, so that the second receiving platform 311 moves closer to the feeding channel 111 and receives the heated carrier 300 containing material 200 removed from the feeding channel 111. After the material 200 is removed, the empty carrier 300 continues to move along the first direction driven by the second driving assembly 313, and is pushed into the return channel 112 by the second pushing member 312 at the second receiving platform 311.

[0072] For example, the second receiving mechanism 32 can be in the form of a lead screw motor. Driven by the motor, the lead screw inside can rotate. A nut can be provided on the lead screw, and the nut moves linearly with the rotation of the lead screw, thereby driving the surface of the second receiving mechanism to move along the first direction. The second receiving mechanism 32 is fixedly connected to the first receiving mechanism 31. The second receiving mechanism 32 moves horizontally in the first direction, thereby driving the first receiving mechanism 31 to move as a whole. In this way, the second receiving mechanism 32 can push the first receiving mechanism 31 to move as a whole in the first direction, so that the first receiving mechanism 31 moves away from or closer to the heating module 10, thereby realizing the receiving action of the receiving module 30 in each feeding channel 111 and the return action in the return channel 112.

[0073] In some embodiments of this application, the second pushing member 312 of the first receiving mechanism 31 can be in the form of a linkage mechanism. The second pushing member 312 consists of a connecting rod 3121 and a second pushing rod 3122. The connecting rod 3121 is connected to the second driving assembly 313, which can be in the form of a cylinder. One end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 3121. When the second driving assembly 313 outputs energy, it can drive the connecting rod 3121 and the end connected to it to move in a first direction. The connecting rod 3121 is rotatably connected to the second driving assembly 313 and fixed to the second driving assembly 313 through a connection point. The other end of the connecting rod 3121 is fixedly connected to the second pushing rod 3122. When the end of the connecting rod 3121 connected to the second driving assembly 313 moves away from the heating module 10 in the first direction, the other end of the connecting rod 3121 moves closer to the heating module 10, thereby driving the second pushing rod 3122 to move towards the heating module 10, so that the empty carrier 300 enters the return channel 112.

[0074] When the second push rod 3122 is at its leftmost position in the first direction, the second receiving platform 311 contacts the return channel 112. At this time, the second receiving platform 311 can send the empty carrier 300 to the return channel 112. When one first receiving mechanism 31 pushes the empty carrier 300 back to the return channel 112, the other first receiving mechanism 31 receives the carrier 300 containing material 200 that has been removed from the feeding channel 111. In this way, the two first receiving mechanisms 31 can take turns connecting to the feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112 to receive and push the carrier 300, ensuring that the receiving module 30 and the pushing module 20 are synchronized.

[0075] The first receiving mechanism 31, with its configuration, operates reliably and responds quickly. It can promptly and accurately receive the carrier 300 containing the material 200 from the feeding channel 111 and accurately deliver the empty carrier 300 to the return channel 112, thus ensuring the low energy consumption of the heating equipment 100.

[0076] In some embodiments of this application, the receiving module 30 includes a third receiving mechanism 33. The third receiving mechanism 33 can be connected to the second receiving mechanism 32 via a third connecting plate 331, thereby achieving overall connection with the first receiving mechanism 31. Exemplarily, the third receiving mechanism 33 can be driven by a lead screw motor to move back and forth in a second direction, thereby causing the first receiving mechanism 31 and the second receiving mechanism 32 to move as a whole in the second direction, so that the second receiving platform 311 can contact each feeding channel 111 and the return channel 112, receiving the carrier 300 and material 200 from different feeding channels 111 and pushing the empty carrier 300 into the return channel 112. Thus, under the combined action of the first receiving mechanism 31, the second receiving mechanism 32 and the third receiving mechanism 33, the empty carrier 300 can be returned.

[0077] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 In some embodiments, the heating device 100 further includes a feeding module 40 and a feeding module 50. The feeding module 50 is disposed between the feeding module 40 and the pushing module 20. The feeding module 40 is used to store the material 200, and the feeding module 50 is used to transfer the material 200 in the feeding module 40 to the pushing module 20.

[0078] In the above embodiment, the feeding module 40 is used to store the material 200. The material 200 located in the feeding module 40 is transferred to the pushing module 20 under the action of the feeding module 50. The feeding module 40 and the feeding module 50 cooperate with each other to transfer the material 200 from outside the equipment to the first receiving platform 211 of the pushing module 20. In this way, the material 200 only needs to be processed by the feeding module 40 and the feeding module 50 to accurately move onto the pushing mechanism, preparing it for subsequent heating.

[0079] Specifically, the feeding module 40 is used to store a large amount of material 200. The feeding module 40 can hold the material 200 required for production over a certain period, reducing the frequency of manual material replenishment. Furthermore, the feeding module 40 can arrange the material 200 neatly in a preset direction and posture, providing a stable and uninterrupted material flow for subsequent heating, ensuring stable production rhythm. The loading module 50 can accurately pick up the material 200 provided by the feeding module 40 and place it precisely into the carrier 300 on the first receiving platform 211 of the pushing module 20. Through the cooperation of the feeding module 40 and the loading module 50, the material 200 can be transferred from outside the equipment to the pushing module 20. The positioning and transfer of the material 200 can be achieved without complex transmission systems, which is beneficial for equipment cost control.

[0080] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a perspective view of the feeding module 40 according to some embodiments of the present invention. In some embodiments, the feeding module 40 includes a turntable 41 and a plurality of storage cylinders 42 disposed on the turntable 41. The storage cylinders 42 are used to store a plurality of stacked materials 200. The turntable 41 drives the plurality of storage cylinders 42 to rotate so that at least one storage cylinder 42 feeds material to the feeding module 50.

[0081] In the above embodiment, when the material 200 in one storage cylinder 42 is completely used up, another storage cylinder 42 filled with material 200 can be rotated by the turntable 41 to continue feeding material to the feeding module 50, while the empty storage cylinder 42 can be manually refilled with material 200 for subsequent feeding. In this way, the feeding module 40 can ensure that the material 200 can be delivered continuously, which is beneficial to improving the working efficiency of the heating equipment 100.

[0082] Specifically, the storage cylinder 42 is a container-type storage unit used for storing and temporarily storing materials 200. In some embodiments of this application, the storage cylinder 42 can be a square cylindrical structure, and there can be multiple storage cylinders 42. Multiple storage cylinders 42 are placed vertically on the surface of the turntable 41, making full use of the three-dimensional space and helping the heating equipment 100 reduce its floor space.

[0083] The turntable 41 is a circular platform device capable of rotating around its central axis and used to support and position the storage cylinders 42. Exemplarily, the turntable 41 can be driven by a motor and rotate in increments. In some embodiments of this application, four storage cylinders 42 are provided on each side of the diameter of the turntable 41, and eight storage cylinders 42 are connected to the turntable 41. When the turntable 41 rotates, the multiple storage cylinders 42 located on the turntable 41 rotate accordingly, thereby driving the material 200 in the storage cylinders 42 to rotate.

[0084] When the material 200 in the storage cylinder 42 on one side of the turntable 41 is completely used up, the empty storage cylinder 42 can be rotated away from the feeding module 50 by rotating the turntable 41. This allows the storage cylinder 42 on the other side of the turntable 41, which is full of material 200, to move closer to the feeding module 50 and continue feeding material to the feeding module 50. The empty storage cylinder 42 can be manually refilled with material 200. When the turntable 41 rotates to the corresponding position, the storage cylinder 42 can continue to be fed. Multiple storage cylinders 42 are arranged in an orderly manner on the turntable 41. The turntable 41 rotates intermittently, rotating the storage cylinder 42 filled with material 200 to the feeding position, so that the material 200 can be continuously conveyed to the feeding module 50, effectively improving the efficiency and reliability of the heating equipment 100.

[0085] Please refer to the following: Figure 5 In some embodiments, the top of the storage cylinder 42 is provided with a cylinder opening 421, and the feeding module 40 includes an ejection mechanism 43, which includes a push rod 431. The push rod 431 is located below the storage cylinder 42 and is used to pass through the storage cylinder 42 to push the material 200 in the storage cylinder 42 toward the cylinder opening 421 of the storage cylinder 42.

[0086] In the above embodiment, multiple materials 200 can be stored in a storage cylinder 42. The top of the storage cylinder 42 is provided with a cylinder opening 421. The materials 200 in the storage cylinder 42 can be pushed upwards sequentially by the push rod 431 of the ejection mechanism 43. In this way, the feeding module 50 can continuously feed materials, realizing the uninterrupted movement of materials 200 from the feeding module 40 to the pushing module 20, which can save a lot of time and improve the feeding efficiency.

[0087] Specifically, the opening 421 at the top of the storage cylinder 42 is the position where the material 200 leaves the storage cylinder 42. The ejection mechanism 43 of the feeding module 40 is installed at the bottom of the storage cylinder 42 and is used to force the material 200 in the storage cylinder 42 out sequentially. The ejector rod 431 of the ejection mechanism 43 is the component that directly contacts and pushes the material 200. In some embodiments of this application, the number of ejector rods 431 can be set to four, corresponding one-to-one with the storage cylinders 42 arranged on both sides of the turntable 41. The ejector rods 431 can be driven by the third drive component 432 of the ejection mechanism 43 to move in a third direction, thereby ejecting the material 200 at the top of the storage cylinder 42. The remaining material 200 in the cylinder moves along the opening 421 of the storage cylinder 42 under the action of the ejector rods 431. After the material 200 at the first position is sent to the feeding module 50, the material 200 at the second position moves to the position where the material 200 at the first position is located. After the feeding module 50 completes the feeding of the material 200 at the first position, it immediately feeds the material 200 that was originally located at the second position.

[0088] Under the action of the ejection mechanism 43, the material 200 can be continuously moved from the feeding module 50 to the pushing module 20, ensuring that the heating module 10 can work without interruption, effectively shortening the overall working time of the heating equipment 100 and improving the working efficiency of the heating equipment 100.

[0089] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a perspective view of the feeding module 50 according to some embodiments of the present invention. In some embodiments, the feeding module 50 includes an adsorption member 51 and a three-way drive mechanism 52. The adsorption member 51 is used to adsorb the material 200 in the feeding module 40. The three-way drive mechanism 52 is connected to the adsorption member 51 and is used to drive the adsorption member 51 to move in three-dimensional space to transfer the material 200 from the feeding module 40 to the pushing module 20.

[0090] In the above embodiment, the material 200 located at the top of the storage cylinder 42, which is moved upward by the ejection mechanism 43 of the feeding module 40, is adsorbed by the adsorption member 51. The adsorption member 51 can adsorb and release the material 200. The three-way drive mechanism 52 can drive the adsorption member 51 to move in three-dimensional space, that is, the adsorption member 51 can move along the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction, i.e., the vertical direction. With the action of the adsorption member 51, the material 200 of the feeding module 40 can be smoothly transferred to the first receiving platform 211 of the pushing module 20, thereby realizing the subsequent heating of the material 200. In this way, the material 200 can be transferred from the outside to the feeding channel 111 through simple mechanical movement, realizing the preparation of the material 200 before heating, and the control of the position of the material 200 is relatively precise and fast.

[0091] Specifically, the adsorption element 51 is a component that uses vacuum negative pressure to grasp and transfer the material 200. It can generate and maintain a pressure lower than atmospheric pressure, creating a pressure difference between itself and the surface of the material 200, thereby firmly adsorbing the material 200. In some embodiments of this application, the adsorption element 51 can be in the form of a suction cup, and its material can be an elastic material such as rubber, which has good sealing properties and flexibility. The side with the larger diameter of the suction cup contacts the material 200 to adsorb the material 200, and then the material 200 is transferred to the pushing module 20 under the action of the three-way drive mechanism 52.

[0092] The three-way drive mechanism 52 combines three linear motion units—a first direction, a second direction, and a third direction—in a specific manner to achieve precise positioning in three-dimensional space. The three-way drive mechanism 52 includes a first drive member 521, a second drive member 522, and a third drive member 523. For example, there can be multiple adsorption members 51, which can be mounted on a mounting plate to simultaneously adsorb multiple materials 200. The adsorption members 51 on the mounting plate can move in the third direction through the action of the first drive member 521; the first drive member 521 is connected to the second drive member 522, which can drive the adsorption members 51 and the first drive member 521 as a whole to move along the second direction; the third drive member 523 is connected to the second drive member 522 and can drive the adsorption members 51, the first drive member 521, and the second drive member 522 as a whole to move along the first direction, thereby realizing the movement of the material 200 in three-dimensional space and accurately positioning and moving the material 200 to the pushing module 20. The third drive unit 523 can be connected to the gantry 53 to fix the three-way drive mechanism 52.

[0093] In this way, material 200 can easily reach the pushing module 20 through linear movement in three directions. The three-way drive mechanism 52 with this configuration has a clear operation process and a clear movement path, which can achieve precise positioning of material 200, thereby improving the overall working efficiency of heating equipment 100 and reducing maintenance costs.

[0094] In summary, in one embodiment, the heating device 100 can achieve precise positioning and movement of multiple materials 200, which is beneficial to improving the working efficiency of the heating device 100; the carrier 300 heated by the heating module 10 can re-enter the feeding channel 111 through the return channel, which minimizes the heat loss of the carrier 300 and can significantly reduce the energy consumption of the heating device 100.
