Description
本発明は厚鋼板、形鋼等の長尺の被処理材を処理する熱処理炉に関する。 The present invention relates to a heat treatment furnace for processing a long material to be processed such as a thick steel plate or a shape steel.
長尺の被処理材を熱処理する熱処理炉として特許文献1や非特許文献1に記載の台車炉が公知である。これらの台車炉は、被処理材を積載する台車と加熱するための加熱手段(バーナ)、炉内に充満する雰囲気ガスを循環させる循環手段(循環ファン)を備えている。
特に特許文献1では、被処理材の長手方向に隔壁を形成し該隔壁には循環孔や排気孔を対称な位置に設けて、熱処理室にバーナからの燃焼ガスを噴射する筐体を左右交互に配置することで、局部的な高温部を抑えて長さ方向の温度分布を均一とする技術が開示されている。
In particular, in Patent Document 1, partition walls are formed in the longitudinal direction of a material to be processed, and circulation holes and exhaust holes are provided at symmetrical positions in the partition walls, and a casing for injecting combustion gas from a burner into a heat treatment chamber is alternately left and right. A technique is disclosed in which the temperature distribution in the length direction is made uniform by suppressing the local high-temperature portion by arranging in the above.
しかしながら、特許文献1の技術を用いて被処理材の加熱を行った場合、加熱ゾーン間に仕切りがないため、各加熱ゾーンの燃焼ガスが熱処理炉内で混合してしまい、そのため、熱処理炉の長さ方向の温度分布を目的のものとすることが困難となり、被処理材の長手方向の昇温状況を略均一にできないという問題があった。
また、被処理材を覆う筐体を設けて当該被処理材に直接燃焼ガスが当たることを防ぐ構造となっているものの、被処理材に温度上昇を測るための温度計がどの位置に配置されているか明確な開示がなく、被処理材の局部的な過加熱を完全に抑止できるものとはなっていない。
However, when the material to be processed is heated using the technique of Patent Document 1, since there is no partition between the heating zones, the combustion gas in each heating zone is mixed in the heat treatment furnace. There is a problem that it is difficult to make the temperature distribution in the longitudinal direction the target, and the temperature rise state in the longitudinal direction of the material to be treated cannot be made substantially uniform.
In addition, although it has a structure that prevents the combustion gas from directly hitting the material to be processed by providing a housing that covers the material to be processed, the thermometer for measuring the temperature rise on the material to be processed is located at any position. There is no clear disclosure, and local overheating of the material to be treated cannot be completely suppressed.
加えて、加熱手段を被処理材に対して左右交互に配置することで、当該被処理材の幅方向の温度分布均一化を狙っているが、現実として、加熱手段からの燃焼ガスの上流側に位置する被処理材の昇温が早く、下流側が遅くなるという問題があって、被処理材の幅方向の昇温状況を略均一とすることができなかった。
そこで、本発明は、上記問題を鑑み、被処理材の長手方向及び幅方向に略均一に昇温できるような熱処理炉を提供することを目的とする。
In addition, by arranging the heating means alternately left and right with respect to the material to be treated, the temperature distribution in the width direction of the material to be treated is aimed to be uniform, but in reality, the upstream side of the combustion gas from the heating means There is a problem in that the temperature of the material to be processed positioned quickly is increased and the downstream side is delayed, and the temperature increasing condition in the width direction of the material to be processed cannot be made substantially uniform.
In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a heat treatment furnace that can raise the temperature substantially uniformly in the longitudinal direction and the width direction of a material to be processed.
前記目的を達成するため、本発明においては以下の技術的手段を講じた。
すなわち、本発明にかかる熱処理炉は、雰囲気ガスで長尺の被処理材を加熱する熱処理室と、該熱処理室に連通し且つ前記雰囲気ガスを加熱する加熱室とが備えられ、前記熱処理室は、被処理材の長さ方向に設けられた複数の仕切りにより複数の制御ゾーンに区画され、該熱処理室の制御ゾーン毎に、前記雰囲気ガスを当該熱処理室と加熱室との間で循環させ且つその送風方向が正逆切り換え自在である循環手段と、前記被処理材に対して上流側での雰囲気ガスの温度を測定する温度測定手段とが備えられ、前記加熱室は、熱処理室の制御ゾーンに対応し且つ連通する制御ゾーンに区画され、該加熱室の制御ゾーン毎に雰囲気ガスを加熱する加熱手段が設けられていることを特徴とする。
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention takes the following technical means.
That is, a heat treatment furnace according to the present invention includes a heat treatment chamber that heats a long object to be treated with an atmospheric gas, and a heating chamber that communicates with the heat treatment chamber and heats the atmospheric gas. , Partitioned into a plurality of control zones by a plurality of partitions provided in the length direction of the material to be treated, and for each control zone of the heat treatment chamber, the atmosphere gas is circulated between the heat treatment chamber and the heating chamber, and Circulating means whose air blowing direction can be switched between forward and reverse, and temperature measuring means for measuring the temperature of the atmospheric gas upstream of the material to be treated are provided, and the heating chamber is a control zone of the heat treatment chamber And a heating means for heating the atmosphere gas is provided for each control zone of the heating chamber.
熱処理室が、被処理材の長手方向に区画されて制御ゾーンとなっているため、各制御ゾーンの高温雰囲気ガスが熱処理炉内で混合することを防止することができ、熱処理炉の長さ方向の温度分布を所定のものとすることができる。
また、循環手段により、制御ゾーン毎、雰囲気ガスを風向が正逆切り換え自在に循環させることができるようになるため、被処理材の幅方向の温度分布を均一化でき、均一な昇温を実現できる。
Since the heat treatment chamber is divided into the longitudinal direction of the material to be treated and serves as a control zone, it is possible to prevent the high-temperature atmosphere gas in each control zone from mixing in the heat treatment furnace, and the length direction of the heat treatment furnace The temperature distribution can be a predetermined one.
In addition, the circulation means can circulate the atmosphere gas in each control zone so that the wind direction can be switched between forward and reverse, so that the temperature distribution in the width direction of the material to be processed can be made uniform, and uniform temperature rise can be realized. it can.
加えて、制御ゾーン毎に備えられた温度測定手段で、被処理材のて上流側での雰囲気ガスの温度を確実に測定することができるようになるため、被処理材の局部的な過加熱を抑制できるようになる。
すなわち、本技術的手段により、被処理材の長手方向及び幅方向に略均一に昇温できるようになる。
In addition, the temperature measuring means provided for each control zone can reliably measure the temperature of the atmosphere gas upstream of the material to be treated, so that local overheating of the material to be treated is possible. Can be suppressed.
That is, by this technical means, the temperature can be increased substantially uniformly in the longitudinal direction and the width direction of the material to be processed.

May happen. In order to prevent such a situation, the control device provided in the heat treatment furnace is based on the amount of fuel supplied to the direct-fired burner, and if the amount increases, the generation of combustion gas increases. And adjusting the exhaust amount adjusting means to increase the amount of the atmospheric gas discharged from the exhaust port to the outside. Conversely, when the amount of fuel supplied to the direct-fired burner is reduced, the generation of combustion gas is reduced. Therefore, the amount of atmospheric gas discharged outside from the exhaust port is adjusted by adjusting the exhaust amount adjustment means. Try to reduce.

炉室Rの内側であってその断面右端部(図1の右側)には、上下に貫通する第1熱風通路25が形成されており、その反対側の端部(図1の左側)にも第2熱風通路26が上下に貫通して設けられ、この第2熱風通路26に循環手段4が配置されている。この循環手段4(循環ファン)として軸流ファンが例示されている。この循環手段4の正逆運転は、正逆運転可能な循環ファン電動機11により行われる。 A first hot air passage 25 penetrating vertically is formed inside the furnace chamber R at the right end of the cross section (right side in FIG. 1), and also on the opposite end (left side in FIG. 1).

図2は、熱処理炉の平面図である。熱処理室2は前記長手方向に複数の制御ゾーンに区画されている。各制御ゾーンは、仮想線で示す位置に設けられた垂直仕切壁23により区画されている。この実施の形態では5個の制御ゾーンが設けられ、各制御ゾーンに前記加熱手段5と循環手段4が一つずつ設けられている。各循環手段4により熱風は前記被処理材の上下表面に沿って幅方向に流れる。
The outputs of the first and second temperature measuring means 8, 9, the circulation fan motor 11, the exhaust amount adjusting means 16, 17, and the combustion amount measuring means 18 described above are taken into the control device 20, and will be described later. The heating control is performed. A control signal from the control device 20 is input to the circulation fan motor 11, the exhaust amount adjusting means 16, 17, and the combustion amount measuring means 18.
FIG. 2 is a plan view of the heat treatment furnace. The heat treatment chamber 2 is partitioned into a plurality of control zones in the longitudinal direction. Each control zone is partitioned by a vertical partition wall 23 provided at a position indicated by a virtual line. In this embodiment, five control zones are provided, and one heating means 5 and one circulation means 4 are provided in each control zone. The hot air flows in the width direction along the upper and lower surfaces of the material to be treated by each circulation means 4.
前記制御ゾーンの区画長さは、熱処理炉の幅(炉幅)の0.1〜0.4倍とするのがよい。その根拠が図4に示されている。すなわち、図4には、区画長さを変化させた場合における制御ゾーン内の温度差を測定した結果が示されている。制御ゾーン内の温度差とは被処理材1の長さ方向に1つの制御ゾーンで3点以上測定した雰囲気ガス温度の最高値と最低値との差を示しており、第1及び第2温度測定手段8,9以外に実験用の熱電対を設置して測定を行った。実験条件は炉幅5m、循環ガス温度600℃であって、炉幅に対して0.4倍以下の区画長さでゾーン内温度差は10℃以下と均一な温度分布になっている。 The section length of the control zone is preferably 0.1 to 0.4 times the width of the heat treatment furnace (furnace width). The basis for this is shown in FIG. That is, FIG. 4 shows the result of measuring the temperature difference in the control zone when the section length is changed. The temperature difference in the control zone indicates the difference between the highest value and the lowest value of the atmospheric gas temperature measured at three or more points in one control zone in the length direction of the material 1 to be processed. Measurement was performed by installing an experimental thermocouple in addition to the measurement means 8 and 9. The experimental conditions were a furnace width of 5 m, a circulating gas temperature of 600 ° C., a zone length of 0.4 times or less of the furnace width, and a uniform temperature distribution with a temperature difference in the zone of 10 ° C. or less.
図3は、制御ゾーンの1つを長さ方向断面図として示したものである。
熱処理室2と加熱室3とを区切る水平仕切り壁19から耐熱用鋼板を被処理材1の直上まで吊り下げて熱処理室ゾーン仕切り壁7(垂直仕切壁23)を構成している。熱処理室ゾーン仕切り壁7は耐熱用鋼板に限るものではなく、その他の金属材料や耐火断熱材で構成してもよい。かかる熱処理室ゾーン仕切り壁7の設置によって隣り合うゾーンの循環ガスの熱処理室内での混合を防ぎ、制御ゾーンの独立性を高めて被処理材1を長さ方向に均一な温度分布とできる。
FIG. 3 shows one of the control zones as a longitudinal section.
A heat-resistant steel plate is suspended from the horizontal partition wall 19 separating the heat treatment chamber 2 and the heating chamber 3 to the position immediately above the workpiece 1 to form the heat treatment chamber zone partition wall 7 (vertical partition wall 23). The heat treatment chamber zone partition wall 7 is not limited to a heat-resistant steel plate, and may be composed of other metal materials or refractory heat insulating materials. By installing such a heat treatment chamber zone partition wall 7, mixing of circulating gas in adjacent zones in the heat treatment chamber can be prevented, and the independence of the control zone can be increased, so that the material to be treated 1 can have a uniform temperature distribution in the length direction.
なお、本実施形態では、加熱室3も熱処理室2と同様に加熱室ゾーン仕切り壁6で区切った場合を示しており、加熱室ゾーン仕切り壁6は熱処理の天井から吊り下げたパイプと耐火断熱材で構成している。
かかる構成を有する熱処理炉で、被処理材を加熱すると、(i)熱処理室2が、被処理材1の長手方向に区画されて制御ゾーンとなっているため、各制御ゾーンの高温雰囲気ガスが熱処理炉内で混合することを防止することができ、熱処理炉の長さ方向の温度分布を所定のものとすることができる。(ii)循環手段4により、制御ゾーン毎、雰囲気ガスを風向が正逆切り換え自在に循環させることができるようになるため、被処理材の幅方向の温度分布を均一化でき、均一な昇温を実現できる。(iii)制御ゾーン毎に備えられた温度測定手段,9で、被処理材1の上流側での雰囲気ガスの温度を確実に測定することができるようになるため、被処理材1の局部的な過加熱を抑制できるようになる。
In the present embodiment, the heating chamber 3 is also divided by the heating chamber zone partition wall 6 in the same manner as the heat treatment chamber 2, and the heating chamber zone partition wall 6 is formed of a pipe suspended from the ceiling of the heat treatment and fireproof insulation. It consists of materials.
When the material to be treated is heated in the heat treatment furnace having such a configuration, (i) the heat treatment chamber 2 is partitioned in the longitudinal direction of the material 1 to be a control zone. Mixing in the heat treatment furnace can be prevented, and the temperature distribution in the length direction of the heat treatment furnace can be made predetermined. (ii) The circulation means 4 allows the atmospheric gas to be circulated in each control zone so that the wind direction can be switched between forward and reverse, so that the temperature distribution in the width direction of the material to be processed can be made uniform and the temperature can be increased uniformly. Can be realized. (iii) Since the temperature measuring means 9 provided for each control zone can reliably measure the temperature of the atmospheric gas on the upstream side of the material 1 to be processed, Overheating can be suppressed.
前記熱処理炉を用いた被処理材1の加熱方法は次のとおりである。
まず、循環する雰囲気ガスが正転送風時には、第1温度測定手段8でその温度を測定し、逆転送風時には第2温度測定手段9で測定し、測定温度が設定した熱パターンとなるように加熱手段5の燃焼量を制御する。このように被処理材に対して必ず上流の循環ガス温度を測定し制御することで目標とする温度以上の高温部を生じさせることなく昇温できる。
The heating method of the to-be-processed material 1 using the said heat processing furnace is as follows.
First, when the circulating atmosphere gas is forward transfer air, the temperature is measured by the first temperature measuring means 8, and when the reversing air is blown, the temperature is measured by the second temperature measuring means 9 and heated so that the measured temperature becomes a set heat pattern. The combustion amount of the means 5 is controlled. As described above, the temperature of the circulating gas is always measured and controlled with respect to the material to be processed, so that the temperature can be increased without generating a high temperature portion higher than the target temperature.
また、制御装置20は、循環手段4の送風方向を切り換えるようにもしている。詳しくは、正逆の送風時間(T正,T逆)の比率と、正逆の送風量(Q正,Q逆)の比率のべき乗とが比例するものとして、熱処理炉を操業している。正逆の送風時間比率と、正逆の送風量の比率との関係の一例として、式(1)の関係を採用することは好ましい。
T正/T逆=(Q正/Q逆)a ・・・(1)
但し、a=0.8〜0.9
こうすることで、被処理材1の昇温時間差を可能な限り小さくすることが可能となる。
In addition, the control device 20 is configured to switch the blowing direction of the circulation means 4. Specifically, the heat treatment furnace is operated on the assumption that the ratio of the forward / reverse blowing time (T forward, T reverse) and the power of the forward / reverse blown amount (Q forward, Q reverse) are proportional. As an example of the relationship between the forward / reverse air blowing time ratio and the forward / reverse air flow rate ratio, it is preferable to adopt the relationship of Expression (1).
T forward / T reverse = (Q forward / Q reverse) a (1)
However, a = 0.8-0.9
By doing so, it is possible to make the temperature increase time difference of the material 1 to be processed as small as possible.
さらに、本実施形態の如く、加熱手段5に直火式バーナが採用されている場合は、排気口14,15を介して外部に排気する雰囲気ガスの流量は、燃焼量計測手段18により測定した燃焼量にもとづいて決定し、制御装置20からの指令によって、排気量調整手段16,17を用いて調整するようにする。
具体的には、空気比mで燃焼している理論空気量A、理論排ガス量Gの燃料を使用している場合、燃焼量計測手段18で計測される燃料流量をQfとすると、燃焼によって発生するガス量Qgは、
Qg=((m−1)×A+G)×Qf ・・・(2)
と求められる。例えば、各制御ゾーンで燃料流量Qfを測定し、各々で発生するガス量Qgを算定し、排気流量Qeを次式により設定する。
Qe=K×Qg ・・・(3)
ここで、Kの値は全ての制御ゾーンで1としているが、制御ゾーン毎に変更してもよい。
Further, as in the present embodiment, when a direct-fire burner is employed as the heating means 5, the flow rate of the atmospheric gas exhausted to the outside through the exhaust ports 14 and 15 is measured by the combustion amount measuring means 18. It is determined based on the combustion amount, and is adjusted using the exhaust amount adjusting means 16 and 17 in accordance with a command from the control device 20.
Specifically, when a fuel having a theoretical air amount A and a theoretical exhaust gas amount G burning at an air ratio m is used, if the fuel flow rate measured by the combustion amount measuring means 18 is Qf, it is generated by combustion. The amount of gas Qg
Qg = ((m−1) × A + G) × Qf (2)
Is required. For example, the fuel flow rate Qf is measured in each control zone, the gas amount Qg generated in each is calculated, and the exhaust flow rate Qe is set by the following equation.
Qe = K × Qg (3)
Here, the value of K is set to 1 in all control zones, but may be changed for each control zone.
また、燃焼量を測定するために燃料流量に加えて燃焼空気流量を測定してもよい。
このように、排気量調整手段を前記加熱手段での加熱状態に応じて制御することで、「全ての制御ゾーンの排気流量を同量であって隣り合う制御ゾーンの燃焼量が異なる場合に、燃焼量の多いゾーンから少ないゾーンへ雰囲気ガスが流れ込む」といった状況が発生することを防ぐことができるようになる。そのため、長さ方向の温度分布を均一とできる。
Further, in order to measure the combustion amount, the combustion air flow rate may be measured in addition to the fuel flow rate.
In this way, by controlling the exhaust amount adjusting means according to the heating state in the heating means, "when the exhaust flow rate of all control zones is the same amount and the combustion amount of adjacent control zones is different, It is possible to prevent a situation in which the atmospheric gas flows from a zone with a large amount of combustion into a zone with a small amount of combustion. Therefore, the temperature distribution in the length direction can be made uniform.
具体的には、各制御ゾーンに排気口14,15等の排気手段を設けず、排気流量制御も行っていない設備では最大30℃あった熱処理炉内の温度差(炉内温度差)が、本発明を適用することで12℃にまで低減することができた。炉内温度差は前記ゾーン内温度差と同様に実験用熱電対によって各制御ゾーンの長さ方向に3点以上循環ガス温度を測定した時の、炉内での最高値と最低値の差を示す。 Specifically, the temperature difference in the heat treatment furnace (in-furnace temperature difference), which is 30 ° C. at the maximum in the equipment that does not provide the exhaust means such as the exhaust ports 14 and 15 in each control zone and does not control the exhaust flow rate, By applying the present invention, the temperature could be reduced to 12 ° C. The temperature difference in the furnace is the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value in the furnace when the temperature of the circulating gas is measured at three or more points in the length direction of each control zone by the experimental thermocouple in the same way as the temperature difference in the zone. Show.
