Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Object of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a processing apparatus for performing stretching, cutting and tempering after extrusion of an aluminum profile extruded from an extruder.

(Prior Art) As this type of device, for example, one described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 174860/1985 is known. The technique of the publication is that after cutting the extruded long shaped members into unit lengths, the unit shaped members are arranged in a necessary arrangement at the time of the oxide film treatment in the subsequent step, and the heat treatment is performed while maintaining the state. It was developed for the purpose of promoting energy saving during heat treatment.

The configuration is such that the cut unit profiles are placed side by side on the conveyor as described above, and the required number of unit profiles are placed in a plane orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the furnace on the transport conveyor in front of the furnace inlet. After storing, the required number of unit shapes are placed on the chain conveyor installed in the furnace, sent to the exit side of the furnace, heat-treated, transferred to the discharge conveyor, and transferred to the next process. .

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) By the way, according to the above-mentioned technology, the extruded long profile is cut into a unit length, and the cut profile is put into the furnace without changing its length direction. Because it is sent to
The furnace must be installed orthogonally to the extrusion direction of the extruder. In the case of this apparatus, there is no problem in a large factory, but there is a problem that the production rate is low with respect to the factory area because it occupies a large area for processing after extrusion.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above problems and provides a processing apparatus in which the production rate with respect to a factory area is improved and the energy consumed in the furnace can be significantly reduced.

In the furnace 10, a vertical feed conveyor 18 having a length substantially the same as the length of the unit profile cut into a predetermined size by the cutting machine 7,
Specifically, a plurality of roller conveyors are arranged in a row in the longitudinal direction of the furnace 10 along the same plane, and the vertical feed conveyors 18 arranged in a row are provided in a plurality of stages with vertical intervals. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, a burner port 19 is provided on an upper part of one side wall of the furnace 10, and a partition wall 20 is provided on each side of the vertical feed conveyors 18 arranged in the furnace 10 in the longitudinal direction. Standing up at intervals, then provided in a state of surrounding a part of the upper part of the vertical feed conveyor 18 at the uppermost stage, a blower 21 for sending hot air downward is attached to the upper surface of the partition wall 20, and each stage at the rising portion of the partition wall 20. A jet port 22 is provided so as to face the vertical feed conveyor 18, and the hot air blown from the jet port 22 is circulated in the vertical direction by the blower 21.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the extruder 1, the straightener 4, the tables 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 13, 14, the cutting machine 7, and the transverse feed conveyor 12 are heat-treated. Since the furnaces 10 are arranged symmetrically with respect to each other, each of the profiles formed by the pair of extruders 1 and 1 can be processed in one heat treatment furnace 10.

The vertical feed conveyor 18 in the heat treatment furnace 10 is a roller conveyor, but is not limited to this, and may be a chain conveyor as shown in FIG. 5 to FIG.
A belt conveyor may be used as shown in the figure, and in the case of a chain conveyor, a cushion material 24 such as a heat-resistant felt material is attached to the surface of the stretcher member 23, or is made of a heat-resistant synthetic resin as shown in FIG. It is preferable to provide a cushion material 24 forming a hollow body. Further, in the case of a belt conveyor, pins 26 are provided on the outer periphery of the roller 25 at equal intervals,

〔The invention's effect〕

According to the apparatus for processing an aluminum profile according to the present invention, the heat treatment furnace is installed beside the saw table along the longitudinal direction thereof. The length is very long, 70 m, and the factory is set up to accommodate this, so it is possible to install a heat treatment furnace in the required length even in a ready-made factory. Moreover, since the cut unit profiles are transferred from the stock table to the guide table by parallel movement, and then moved in the longitudinal direction as they are and put into the heat treatment furnace, there is no need to change the method of the unit profiles, and a narrow range is possible. It is possible to greatly improve the production rate per unit area. Furthermore, a vertical feed conveyor is provided in the heat treatment furnace, and heat treatment is performed while transferring the unit profile on the conveyor, and after processing, only the unit profile is discharged outside the furnace, so the heat energy consumed is greatly reduced. It is something you can do.
