Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for heating steel components and a device therefor.
  • the existing ovens have the disadvantage that the transport system is mounted inside the oven and therefore very susceptible to failure.
  • the maintenance of the transport system can only be done when the stove has cooled down.
  • the position of the body parts is not fixed and it comes during transport through the oven to positional movements of the parts, so that the parts must first be repositioned when leaving the oven to be finally removed and transported to the press.
  • the disadvantage here is that the parts that are not properly and cleanly positioned cool down quickly during repositioning. In order to compensate for these heat losses, the components in the furnace are heated from the outset to temperatures significantly above those necessary for press hardening would.
  • the temperature required for press hardening is usually 930 ° C.
  • roller hearth furnaces are limited in their width. Since the rollers are made of ceramic or heat-resistant steel, it comes due to the influence of heat at a large width of the furnace to deflections which can not be tolerated in the present case. In addition, this leads to load change damage to the rollers.

  • the method also provides that the second and / or third transport device leads the parts to be hardened by a respective O-feneingangs- and furnace exit lock, which is opened only for the moment of passage of the part and then immediately closed. Due to the high speed of delivery or execution in or out of the oven, the locks are open only for a very short period of time, so that the energy loss is low.
  • the inventive method further provides that the components to be cured, such as blanks or preformed or already final molded component, are applied to carrier specific to the respective part and transported with the transport devices.
  • the carriers are only partially carried out in the actual furnace, the largest part is performed outside the furnace, wherein for the positionally accurate transport through the oven corresponding corresponding receiving means are provided, in which the receiving means of the first transport means, the second transport means and possibly the third Transport device can intervene.

  • the foreclosure can also be done through an air curtain.
  • the Umlenksterne or pulleys of the chain are arranged in the region of a furnace beginning or a lock area. On the chain thorns or projections are provided at regular intervals.
  • the linear drives each have a transducer which has a mandrel or a projection in the same way as the chain. This mandrel or protrusion is also formed facing the furnace bottom or pointing upwards, however, the mandrel or the projection of the linear drive is provided from and retractable.
  • the mandrel is pneumatically or hydraulically actuated.
  • carriers are provided, which are formed, for example, flat plate-like. On the underside, these flat plate-like carriers have at least one recess, which can engage a mandrel of the linear drive and / or the conveyor chain.
  • the carriers are guided laterally in u-profiles or in corresponding slide rails or the like, so that they are pushed along these slide rails or u-profiles by means of engaging in their underside thorns.

  • the linear drive is controlled such that it at a certain time zuschiebt the carrier or the plate in the u-profiles or slides on a furnace entrance lock, for example, consists of known per se two successively arranged gates.
  • the first oven door opens and closes after passing through this area.
  • the carrier is now guided through the intermediate lock until it passes through another area, which leads to an opening of the inner lock.
  • This lock then also opens and the linear drive pushes the carrier through this area.
  • the cold control is carried out such that the carrier is positioned in the region of a first Umlenksterns or a first guide roller of the conveyor chain, when a corresponding mandrel or projection of the conveyor chain is guided around the conveyor star around upwards.
  • This mandrel or projection then engages in the central recess, during which time the linear drive has already lowered its projection and is moved back to its starting position and there receives and promotes the next carrier.

Once the parts or the carriers have come out of the oven, the parts can be removed and fed into a press. The carriers are removed from the corresponding guide rail and automatically returned under or over the furnace to the furnace entrance and there re-inserted into the rails and conveyed by the linear drive.
  • the carrier is removed from the oven and introduced back into the oven at the furnace entrance, but in the transport system according to the invention only a fraction of the carrier is heated at all, so that the heat loss is considerably lower than in the prior art.
  • the invention has been explained for a conveyor chain, a slot and a single overhead part. Nevertheless, it is It is also possible to run two or more conveyor chains parallel under the oven and provide a slot for each conveyor chain. This makes it possible to promote a corresponding multiplied number of parts through the oven and then to press. On the other hand, it is also possible to synchronize the conveyor chain and the linear drives with respect to their movement and, for example, hang individual large parts on two or more carriers and lead through the oven.
  • the conveyor chain under the carrier can also attack at lateral areas of the carrier adjacent to the conveyor or slide rails or u-profiles in corresponding recesses.
  • the carrier has only one recess for the two linear drives in the center of the length.
