Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rotary kiln with a heating chamber, in which a feed opening is formed, can be introduced by the objects to be heated in the heating chamber, and with a rotationally driven, circulating transport device, by means of which the objects are transported through the heating chamber to a removal opening to the objects are removable from the heating chamber, wherein the heating chamber has one or more side walls, a floor and a ceiling.
  • Such a rotary kiln which is also referred to as rotary hearth furnace, serves to heat various objects, such as metal circuit boards, in a continuous process to a predetermined temperature of, for example, about 900 ° C to 1100 ° C.
  • the rotary kiln has a heating chamber, which is heated in the usual way by direct or indirect heating to a predetermined temperature and kept at the temperature by means of a conventional control.
  • a circulating transport device is arranged, for example in the form of an endless conveyor, on which the objects can be placed.
  • a lateral feed opening is provided, through which the objects are introduced into the interior of the heating chamber and deposited on the transport device.
  • the transport device guides the objects through the heating chamber, wherein after removal of approximately 310 ° to 340 ° of the circumference of the heating chamber or the transport path of the transport device in the side wall, a removal opening is formed through which the objects are removed from the transport device and out of the Heating chamber can be removed. Subsequently, the objects are sent for further processing in other stations or machines.
  • a particular disadvantage of this known rotary kiln on the one hand that through the side feed opening and the side removal opening, a relatively large heat loss occurs, whereby the energy consumption is very high, to keep the interior of the heating chamber at the predetermined, relatively high temperature.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a rotary kiln of the type mentioned, which has a compact structure and are avoided in the excessive heat loss and, where appropriate, protective gas losses.
  • the objects are preferably introduced by means of a first Gelenkarmroboters from below through the feed opening in the heating chamber and placed on the lid formed on the holder. In their seated on the holders Position pass through the objects as a result of the rotation of the lid, the heating chamber over a circumferential range of about 310 ° to 340 ° until they reach the removal opening.
  • the aforementioned articulated-arm robot or another second articulated-arm robot engages the discharge opening from below through the bottom of the heating chamber and takes the objects from the holders and out of the heating chamber through the removal opening.
  • the heat loss and optionally also the protective gas loss is relatively low, so that the operating costs of the rotary kiln are substantially reduced.
  • the charging opening and / or the removal opening are formed in the bottom of the heating chamber as slots, wherein the slots preferably extend substantially perpendicular to the direction of movement of the objects in the heating chamber. Due to this relatively small size of the feed opening and the removal opening, the heat loss and possibly also the protective gas loss can continue to be kept low.
  • the rotary kiln according to the invention has a supporting central support, which is surrounded by the annular heating chamber. After the objects are introduced into the heating chamber through the feed opening, they pass through the annular heating chamber about the center support through a circumferential angle from 310 ° to 340 °, until they reach the discharge opening.
  • the charging opening and the removal opening are thus arranged offset in the circumferential direction of the heating chamber by an angle in the range of 20 ° to 50 °.
  • FIG. 1 shows a rotary kiln 10, which has a central support 11, which carries at its upper end a transversely to the longitudinal extent of the central support 11 cantilevered ceiling plate 12.
  • the heating chamber 19 is supported on its underside via supports 24 on the ground, so that below the heating chamber 19, a free space 25 is formed.
  • This space 25 is used in the rotary kiln 10 according to the invention for introducing the objects P into the heating chamber 19 and to be taken from this.
  • two slots 20 and 21 each extending radially to the central support 11 are provided which are offset by an angle of approximately 30 ° to 40 ° in the circumferential direction and thus offset in the transport direction of the heating chamber 19 it out Fig. 2 is apparent.
  • the interior of the heating chamber 19 is heated in a conventional manner and maintained at a desired, predetermined temperature, which is not shown in detail in the figures.
