[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 4 A rapid heating energy-saving vacuum furnace device includes:
[0031] A base 1 is provided, a vacuum furnace 11 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1, a support frame 12 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the vacuum furnace 11, an insulation layer 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 12, and a heating component is installed inside the insulation layer 13.
[0032] The air inlet and outlet assembly is located on one side of the vacuum furnace 11. The air inlet and outlet assembly is used to evacuate the inner cavity of the insulation layer 13, which improves the heating efficiency of the vacuum furnace 11 and can also cool the inside of the insulation layer 13.
[0033] A bracket 3 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the base 1. A drive mechanism is installed on the bracket 3. The drive mechanism is used to deliver negative pressure and airflow to the inlet and outlet air components.
[0034] When the equipment is in operation, after the device is started, the drive mechanism first provides power to the inlet and outlet air components, which quickly extract the air from the inner cavity of the insulation layer 13 to create a vacuum environment with low thermal conductivity loss. Then the heating components start to generate heat, and the vacuum environment reduces heat convection and conduction losses, achieving rapid heating. When cooling is required, the drive mechanism switches the output mode to provide airflow power to the inlet and outlet air components and introduces a cooling medium into the vacuum furnace 11, completing the function switching between heating and cooling without the need for additional drive equipment.
[0035] It should be noted that the heating ring is made of a conductive material that is resistant to vacuum and high temperature and has low volatility. It can be made of iron-chromium-aluminum alloy and can withstand temperatures of not less than 800℃, making it suitable for high-temperature heating scenarios without oxidation in vacuum furnaces.
[0036] In the example of this application, the heating assembly includes a plurality of heating rings 15 disposed on the inner wall of the insulation layer 13. The heating rings 15 are all fixedly installed on the inner wall of the insulation layer 13 by bolts, and the heating rings 15 are connected to an external power supply by wires.
[0037] As a preferred example of this utility model, the heating ring 15 is fixed to the inner wall of the insulation layer 13 by bolts, forming a distributed heating layout. After power is applied, the heating ring 15 generates heat through resistance heating. The distributed design allows heat to diffuse from multiple points on the inner wall of the insulation layer 13, quickly forming a uniform temperature field and avoiding localized high or low temperature areas. The bolt connection method does not affect heat conduction, and the heating ring 15 can be quickly inspected or replaced by removing the bolts, ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the heating component.
[0038] In the example of this application, a furnace cover 14 is mounted on the port of the vacuum furnace 11 via a hinge. A docking frame is fixedly installed in the middle of the inner wall of the furnace cover 14, and the docking frame is connected to the port of the insulation layer 13.
[0039] As a preferred example of this utility model, the furnace cover 14 is connected to the port of the vacuum furnace 11 via a hinge. The operator can easily open or close the furnace cover 14 by flipping the hinge. When closed, the mating frame on the inner wall of the furnace cover 14 fits precisely with the port of the insulation layer 13 to form a sealed structure, reducing the leakage of heat radiation from the insulation layer 13 to the outside, while blocking outside air and impurities from entering the inner cavity of the insulation layer 13, thus maintaining the stability of the vacuum environment and the cleanliness of the processing environment.
[0040] In the example of this application, a bracket 16 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the insulation layer 13, and the bracket 16 is used to place the processed parts.
[0041] As a preferred example of this utility model, the workpiece is placed on the bracket 16 at the bottom of the insulation layer 13. The bracket 16 maintains a reasonable distance between the workpiece and the inner wall of the insulation layer 13 and the heating components through the support structure. During heating, heat can flow freely around the workpiece, avoiding heat accumulation or obstruction at the contact points. During the heating and cooling process, the bracket 16 limits and fixes the workpiece to prevent it from shifting due to thermal expansion and contraction or airflow impact, thus ensuring processing accuracy.
[0042] In the example of this application, the air inlet and outlet assembly includes two negative pressure pipes 2 that penetrate through the vacuum furnace 11 and the insulation layer 13 on the same side. The negative pressure ports of the negative pressure pipes 2 are distributed in the inner cavity of the insulation layer 13. The vacuum furnace 11 is provided with two air inlet pipes 21. The air outlets of the air inlet pipes 21 are distributed between the inner cavity of the vacuum furnace 11 and the outer side of the insulation layer 13. The insulation layer 13 is provided with several connecting pipes 22. The two ends of the connecting pipes 22 are respectively connected to the inner cavity of the vacuum furnace 11 and the inner cavity of the insulation layer 13. An exhaust pipe 23 is connected and installed in the middle of the tail end of the vacuum furnace 11. The other end of the exhaust pipe 23 is vertically upward.
[0043] As a preferred example of this utility model, during vacuuming, the negative pressure pipe 2 is directly connected to the inner cavity of the insulation layer 13 to accurately extract internal air and improve vacuum acquisition efficiency; during cooling, the air inlet pipe 21 delivers cooling gas between the inner cavity of the vacuum furnace 11 and the outer side of the insulation layer 13, and the cooling gas quickly penetrates into the interior of the insulation layer 13 through the connecting pipe 22, wrapping the workpiece to achieve all-round cooling; the exhaust gas generated by heating or the gas after cooling is quickly discharged through the vertically upward exhaust pipe 23, using gravity and air pressure difference to accelerate the discharge, avoiding pipe cross-interference and ensuring smooth gas circulation.
[0044] It should be noted that when negative pressure needs to be supplied to the insulation layer 13, the drive disc 35 will drive the drive arm 34 and the extrusion rod 33 to move back and forth, causing the sealing plug 32 to move like a piston in the sealing cylinder 31. When the piston moves downward, the valves of the top negative pressure pipe 2 and the bottom inlet / outlet pipe 37 are opened. Conversely, when the piston moves upward, the valves of the bottom negative pressure pipe 2 and the top inlet / outlet pipe 37 are opened, continuously supplying negative pressure to the insulation layer 13. When it is necessary to cool the workpiece in the vacuum furnace 11, when the piston moves downward, the valves of the bottom air inlet pipe 21 and the top inlet / outlet pipe 37 are opened. Conversely, when the piston moves upward, the valves of the top air inlet pipe 21 and the bottom inlet / outlet pipe 37 are opened, allowing the compressed gas to be delivered into the vacuum furnace 11. With the help of several connecting pipes 22 that are installed through the insulation layer 13, the gas will be introduced into the interior of the insulation layer 13 along the connecting pipes 22 and finally discharged from the exhaust pipe 23, so that the external gas and the inner cavity of the vacuum furnace 11 circulate and cool the workpiece.
[0045] In the example of this application, the drive mechanism includes a sealing cylinder 31 fixedly installed on one side of the bracket 3, a sealing plug 32 movably installed inside the sealing cylinder 31, a squeezing rod 33 fixedly installed on one side of the sealing plug 32, a drive arm 34 rotatably installed on the other end of the squeezing rod 33, and the other end of the drive arm 34 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the drive disc 35. The other ends of the negative pressure pipe 2 and the air inlet pipe 21 are both connected to the sealing cylinder 31, and the two corresponding negative pressure pipes 2 and air inlet pipes 21 are distributed on the same side of the sealing cylinder 31.
[0046] As a preferred example of this utility model, when the drive disc 35 rotates, it drives the drive arm 34 to reciprocate. The drive arm 34 pulls the extrusion rod 33 to push the sealing plug 32 to make piston movement inside the sealing cylinder 31. The reciprocating movement of the sealing plug 32 causes periodic pressure changes inside the sealing cylinder 31. When the pressure decreases, a negative pressure is generated and transported to the insulation layer 13 through the negative pressure pipe 2. When the pressure increases, airflow is pushed and transported to the vacuum furnace 11 through the air inlet pipe 21.
[0047] In the example of this application, a motor 36 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the base 1. The drive output end of the motor 36 is connected to the drive shaft, and the other end of the drive shaft is fixedly connected to the center of the drive disk 35.
[0048] As a preferred example of this utility model, after the motor 36 starts, its drive output end is directly connected to the central shaft of the drive disk 35 through the transmission shaft, adopting a direct drive method without intermediate transmission links, so as to efficiently transmit the rotational power of the motor 36 to the drive disk 35.
[0049] In the example of this application, both sides of the sealing cylinder 31 are connected to the inlet and outlet pipes 37, and electric valves 24 are installed on the inlet and outlet pipes 37, the negative pressure pipe 2, the air inlet pipe 21, the connecting pipe 22 and the exhaust pipe 23.
[0050] As a preferred example of this utility model, during vacuuming, when the sealing plug 32 moves downward, the control system opens the electric valve 24 of the top negative pressure pipe 2 and the bottom inlet / outlet pipe 37; when it moves upward, it switches to open the electric valve 24 of the bottom negative pressure pipe 2 and the top inlet / outlet pipe 37, continuously extracting air from the insulation layer 13. During cooling, when the sealing plug 32 moves downward, it opens the electric valve 24 of the bottom air inlet pipe 21 and the top inlet / outlet pipe 37; when it moves upward, it switches to open the electric valve 24 of the top air inlet pipe 21 and the bottom inlet / outlet pipe 37, pushing cooling gas into the vacuum furnace 11. The cooling gas is evenly distributed inside the insulation layer 13 through the connecting pipe 22, and after fully exchanging heat with the workpiece, it is discharged from the exhaust pipe 23, forming a circulating cooling channel.
[0051] The embodiments of this application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms are within the protection scope of this application.
