Description

Plasma Chemical heat-treatment stove vacuum pressure autocontrol method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of vacuum pressure autocontrol method and device thereof of equipment for Heating Processing, method and device thereof that especially in the stove of glow ion chemical heat treatment furnace, vacuum pressure closed loop is controlled automatically.
Background technology
Plasma Chemical heat-treatment comprises ionitriding, carburizing, carbonitriding, sulfurizing, metallic cementation, plasma activated chemical vapour deposition etc.It is that the workpiece that wish is processed is placed in the vacuum oven of plasma Chemical heat-treatment stove, and workpiece connects the negative pole of direct current glow discharge power supply, and body of heater connects positive pole.Under DC electric field effect, furnace gas generation glow discharge, the surface of the positive ion bombardment workpiece (negative electrode) generating, workpiece is heated to needed thermo-chemical treatment temperature (generally between 400~600 ℃), gas glow discharge has activated reactant gases simultaneously, at workpiece surface, there is a series of physical-chemical reaction, reach the object that workpiece surface modification is processed.
In plasma Chemical heat-treatment process, gas pressure intensity in vacuum oven is an important processing parameter, requires in whole processing engineering, and in stove, vacuum pressure remains in certain pressure range, and reduce fluctuation of pressure as far as possible, to guarantee the quality conformance of processed workpiece.
In existing plasma Chemical heat-treatment stove, pressure regulates to control and conventionally adopts following three kinds of methods:
(1) opening angle that is arranged on the high vacuum butterfly valve on pump-line by manual adjustment changes the flow resistance bleed, and the pumping speed of vacuum pump is changed along with the variation of flow resistance, finally makes charge flow rate and pumping speed reach a kind of transient equilibrium.The drawback that this control method exists is that the open degree of manual setting butterfly valve repeatedly just can reach predetermined pressure, and control accuracy is lower, once and change the flow of air inlet, need again carry out again manual setting.
(2) opening angle that is arranged on the electric butterfly valve on pump-line by the automatic adjustment of pressure instrument is realized pressure in stove and is automatically controlled.Due to butterfly valve opening angle when smaller pressure regulate obviously, now angle slightly changes and will cause that pressure has larger fluctuation, therefore lower with automatic pressure instrument control ratio of precision processed, the interior fluctuation of pressure of stove is larger.
(3) by the closed-loop control of vacuumometer and frequency transformer, make suction motor according to the difference of actual pressure value in default vacuum pressure value and stove, change the rotating speed (namely changing the pumping speed of vacuum pump) of suction motor, realize pressure in vacuum oven and automatically control (as patent of invention 200410013266.6 and utility model patent 200420064865.6).But, if less toward the interior logical gas flow of vacuum oven, and default vacuum pressure is higher, the rotating speed of vacuum pump just may be very low, even may stop operating, and at this moment likely causes normal atmosphere that vacuum pump oil is pressed in vacuum oven, pollutes vacuum chamber.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome above-mentioned deficiency, provide a kind of can avoiding in stove, to return oily phenomenon because of the too low vacuum pump causing of rotating speed of vacuum pump, and can extend plasma Chemical heat-treatment stove vacuum pressure autocontrol method and the device thereof in the work-ing life of vacuum pump.
Technical solution of the present invention is:
