The cross reference of related application
This non-provisional application requires on February 18th, 2005 and on September 5th, 2005 respectively in the patent application No.2005-41944 of Japan's submission and the priority of No.2005-256334 according to 35U.S.C. § 119 (a).The whole contents of each of these two patent applications is introduced by reference at this.
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of induction heating equipment that is used for such as the metallic plate of steel plate or aluminium sheet.The invention particularly relates to a kind of by utilizing induction coil in metallic plate, to produce induced current and the induction heating equipment of metal heating plate around metallic plate.The invention still further relates to a kind of induction heating equipment, this equipment is metal heating plate expeditiously, and no matter whether the thickness of metallic plate and metallic plate are magnetic or nonmagnetic.The invention still further relates to a kind of induction heating equipment, this induction heating equipment can be controlled the Temperature Distribution on horizontal (width) direction of metallic plate, and, have the metallic plate that more uniform temperature distributes thereby after heating, form no matter existing Temperature Distribution how before heating.
Background technology
Utilize the indirect heated component of gas or electricity or utilize the direct firing equipment of induction heating to be used for metal heating plate, with the quality of control metal material in Technology for Heating Processing.Because directly firing equipment does not have thermal inertia, be different from indirect heated component, reach the stable needed time of furnace temperature so direct firing equipment can be saved indirect heated component, and can easily control firing rate, for example, when plate thickness changes.So directly firing equipment does not need to change the transporting velocity of metallic plate, has avoided the productivity ratio reduction like this.
Existing two types the induction heating equipment that is used for metallic plate.One type is LF type (longitudinal flux flux type), and wherein metallic plate heats by utilizing induction coil around metallic plate to produce circular induced current in the cross section of metallic plate, and wherein induction coil applies frequency range usually from the interchange of 1KHz to 500KHz.Fig. 1 shows the schematic diagram of LF type induction heating equipment.Fig. 2 shows the circular induced current of utilizing LF type induction heating equipment to produce in cross section.In Fig. 1, the induction coil 2 that is connected in AC power supplies 3 is around metallic plate 1.When elementary electric current 5 during through induction coils 2, magnetic flux 4 penetrating metal plates 1 and around magnetic flux 4, produce induced current.In Fig. 2, the induced current 6 that produces in the cross section of metallic plate 1 flows along the direction opposite with the primary current 5 of the induction coil 2 that lays respectively at metallic plate 1 above and below of flowing through.Another kind of type is TF type (a transverse flux type), and the induction coil that wherein has magnetic core lays respectively at the above and below of metallic plate.When opening for the AC power supplies of coil power supply, magnetic flux penetrates the metallic plate between the magnetic core and produces induced current along the thickness direction of plate, makes the metallic plate heating.
Add in the TF type and to pine for, induced current concentrates on the lateral end zone of metallic plate, and near the current density this end regions reduces simultaneously, and this causes the heating back to produce uneven Temperature Distribution easily on lateral.Especially, when the magnetic core of induction coil and the relation of the position between the metallic plate because the variation of metallic plate width or metallic plate crawls preceding and then when changing, more be difficult to provide uniform heating.In background technology, proposed to use the technology of diamond-type coil, thereby by making diamond-type coil tilt to make the magnetic flux whole width of penetrating metal plate always when the change width of metallic plate.Yet this technology utilization is from induction coil leaked magnetic flux amount, and this needs metallic plate and induction coil adjacent to each other.In addition, rotating mechanism is installed and has increased the difficulty of on commercial scale, implementing this technology on the induction heating equipment of the big electric current of supply.
LF type heating is a kind of method that is used to heat the metallic plate of sensed coil encircling, and this coil can be guaranteed to produce circular induced current in metallic plate, thereby heats this plate.The induced current that produces in the cross section of metallic plate in the LF type concentrates on the degree of depth of representing with following formula " d " and locates:
d[mm]=5.03×10 +5×(ρ/μrf) 0.5(1)
Wherein d is induced current depth of penetration [mm], and ρ is resistivity [Ω m], and μ r is a relative permeability, and f is a heating frequency [Hz].
Induced current depth of penetration increases along with the increase of metal temperature, because resistivity increases when the temperature of metal increases.The relative permeability of ferrimagnet or paramagnetic material is along with temperature descends near Curie point, and finally the temperature place above Curie point becomes 1.This means that induced current depth of penetration increases with temperature.Because the relative permeability of nonmagnetic substance is 1, its induced current depth of penetration is compared bigger with magnetic material.
In LF type induction heating, if induced current depth of penetration is big, and the thin thickness of metallic plate, induced current that produces in the top of metal and the induced current that produces in the lower part of metal are cancelled each other so.This causes the efficient that heats lower.
For example, if use the heating frequency of 10KHz, so at room temperature induced current depth of penetration for the aluminium of nonmagnetic substance, be about 1mm, for stainless steel 304 (SUS304) about 4.4mm, for the steel of magnetic material about 0.2mm.The about 5mm of penetration of current of the temperature steel more than Curie point (about 750 ℃).The steel plate that great majority are used for automobile and household electrical appliance has the thickness that is not more than 2mm, and wherein automobile and household electrical appliance are to use the primary commercial product of metallic plate.So being difficult to is not usually having as mentioned above to heat this metallic plate expeditiously under the faradic situation that is cancelled in the top of metallic plate and lower part.Can expect,,, thereby can avoid faradic counteracting so that the degree of depth that induced current is penetrated is more shallow with being supplied to the AC power frequency of LF type induction heating equipment to be increased to hundreds of KHz; Yet, use on commercial scale that to have high-frequency high-current supply like this be not very actual.
Proposed to use the induction heating equipment of a kind of like this employing around the induction coil of metallic plate, this equipment is metal heating plate expeditiously, even metallic plate at high temperature and/or be metal sheet.In such induction heating equipment, be positioned at the induction coil (upper induction coil) of metallic plate top and be positioned at another induction coil (lower induction coil) layout parallel to each other below the metallic plate, thereby lay respectively at along positions different on the longitudinal direction of metallic plate.In other words, two projected images of upper induction coil and lower induction coil are parallel to each other, and along positions different on the longitudinal direction of metallic plate, wherein two projected images form by these two induction coils of upright projection on metallic plate respectively.
Fig. 3 is the schematic diagram of above-mentioned induction heating equipment, another induction coil 2b (lower induction coil) that wherein is positioned at the induction coil 2a (upper induction coil) of metallic plate 1 top and is positioned at metallic plate 1 below arranges parallel to each other, and along positions different on the longitudinal direction of metallic plate.Reference numeral 7 and 8 is represented conductive component and AC power supplies 8 respectively.Fig. 4 A shows faradic the flowing in metallic plate 1 when upper induction coil and lower induction coil are arranged in positions different on the longitudinal direction of metallic plate with 4B.Fig. 4 A shows from the schematic diagram of the observed induced current state in metallic plate top.Fig. 4 B is the cross-sectional view that the line 4B-4B along Fig. 4 A makes.Faradic the flowing of Reference numeral 10 expressions in Fig. 4 A.When upper induction coil and lower induction coil were arranged in positions different on the longitudinal direction of metallic plate, the upper path of the circular induced current that produces in metallic plate also laid respectively at along positions different on the longitudinal direction of metallic plate with lower path.So when faradic penetration depth is big, even the temperature height of metallic plate and/or metallic plate be when thin, can be under the situation that the induced current in top that does not have metallic plate and the lower part is offset metal heating plate expeditiously.
Yet, be arranged in along the use of the induction heating equipment of positions different on the longitudinal direction of metallic plate in this upper induction coil and lower induction coil, compare may be overheated in the central area of metallic plate on the fringe region of metallic plate on the Width and Width.This may cause in a lateral direction the final temperature of uneven Temperature Distribution as metallic plate.
Experience this phenomenon and be because narrower than the top of metallic plate and the width of the induced current path in the lower part (corresponding to " d1 " among Fig. 4 A) at the width (corresponding to " d2 " among Fig. 4 A) of the induced current path in metal-sheet edges zone, wherein the edge region electric current flows to the lower part from the top of metallic plate.So, current density height in the current density ratio central area in metal-sheet edges zone.The reason that the current path of fringe region is narrowed down is to flow through the electric current of fringe region towards edge offset, so may reduce along the induced current that flows in the thickness direction edge region of metallic plate and the inductance that is arranged between near the primary current of the induction coil the metal-sheet edges along the thickness direction of metallic plate of flowing through.Another the overheated reason that makes fringe region is (to be defined as d3/ (gait of march of metallic plate) heating time in the metal-sheet edges zone, wherein define among d3 such as Fig. 4 A) than longer in the heating time of central area (be defined as d1/ (gait of march of metallic plate), wherein define among d1 such as Fig. 4 A).
Lay respectively in the use of induction heating equipment of the diverse location on the metallic plate longitudinal direction in this upper induction coil and lower induction coil, if before the beginning induction heating, the temperature in metal-sheet edges zone is lower than the temperature of metallic plate central area, then can alleviate uneven Temperature Distribution behind the induction heating.Yet,, will obtain uneven Temperature Distribution on Width behind the induction heating if Temperature Distribution is uniformly or because last technology makes the temperature of fringe region be higher than the central area.

Embodiment
Now with reference to accompanying drawing the present invention is described.Institute's drawings attached shows the single-turn induction coil around metallic plate.Yet the number of turn of induction coil is not limited to concrete number in the present invention.
Fig. 6 is the floor map of an example of induction heating equipment of the present invention.Fig. 7 is the cross sectional representation that the line 7-7 along Fig. 6 makes.In the present invention, another induction coil that is positioned at the induction coil of metallic plate top and is positioned at the metallic plate below is set to spaced-apart along the longitudinal direction of metallic plate in a position in a lateral direction of metallic plate at least.Be the distance between two projected images of upper induction coil and lower induction coil at spaced-apart along the longitudinal direction upper induction coil and the distance definition between the lower induction coil, these two projected images are respectively to form by each induction coil upright projection on metallic plate.Distance between upper induction coil and the lower induction coil can change at horizontal diverse location place on the part of longitudinal direction at least.In Fig. 6, upper induction coil 2a and lower induction coil 2b have specific bent shapes, thereby the edge region ratio is little in the central area in a lateral direction for the distance between upper induction coil and the lower induction coil.Reference numeral 7 expression conductive components, 8 expression AC power supplies, the induction coil that 9 expressions are provided with near metal-sheet edges (end).In addition, symbol x represents the width of horizontal direction on the longitudinal direction of induction coil at metallic plate of central area along metallic plate.Symbol L is illustrated in the upper induction coil of central area and the distance between the lower induction coil.
When upper induction coil and lower induction coil when the longitudinal direction of metallic plate is provided with spaced-apartly, especially in central area as shown in Figure 6, the upper path of the circular induced current that produces in metallic plate and lower path also distribute on the longitudinal direction of metallic plate spaced-apartly.So when faradic penetration depth is big, even the temperature height of metallic plate and/or metallic plate be when thin, can be under the situation that the induced current in top that does not have metallic plate and the lower part is offset metal heating plate expeditiously.
Ultimate range between upper induction coil and lower induction coil (in Fig. 6, corresponding to the distance L of central area) can be determined according to the material of metallic plate, the temperature of metallic plate, the width of induction coil and the width of metallic plate.For heating-up temperature effectively more than the Curie point in non-magnetic region through cold rolling steel plate, consider the width of metallic plate, the width of induction coil and the gait of march of metallic plate, preferably distance L is made as 0.2 to 6 times of width of induction coil, especially preferably this distance is made as 0.6 to 4 times of width of induction coil.Offset if the top and the induced current in the lower part of metallic plate, appear less than 0.2 times of width of induction coil in distance so, this can not heat effectively.If described distance greater than 6 times of width of induction coil, is difficult to reduce the current density and increase heating time in metal-sheet edges zone so, this causes the temperature of fringe region to increase.In addition, reactance also becomes greatly, and this needs high voltage source, and is difficult to implement on commercial scale.Hereinafter, when the width of the width of upper induction coil and lower induction coil not simultaneously, unless otherwise defined, the width of the induction coil of width (along the longitudinal direction of metallic plate) expression broad.
When be provided with in metallic plate central area in a lateral direction suitable apart from the time, the central area of metallic plate can be heated effectively.Yet if at the fringe region of metallic plate same distance is set, as previously mentioned, the fringe region of metallic plate is overheated, in the uneven Temperature Distribution of formation in a lateral direction of metallic plate.
In the example depicted in fig. 6, in the distance in metal-sheet edges zone less than distance in the central area, thereby can suppress the overheated of fringe region effectively.Overheated being inhibited of fringe region is because less distance makes the top of metallic plate and the induced current of lower part offset significantly, weakened the heating of fringe region.In addition, shorten heating time, and this also causes reducing thermal transpiration, because the quadratic sum of the thermal transpiration of induction heating equipment and current density is proportional heating time.
In Fig. 6, upper induction coil and lower induction coil have the specific curvature part, state induction coil in this sweep place and stride across the metallic plate extension obliquely with respect to horizontal direction.This inclination also is to avoid one of overheated reason of metallic plate edge region.
Fig. 8 shows the schematic diagram of induced current flow state from the metallic plate of the observed Fig. 6 in metallic plate top.The induced current 10 of metallic plate upside and downside along with flow through the opposite direction of the primary current of induction coil, the wherein faradic width almost width with the projected image of induction coil is identical.
The inductance between induced current and the primary current at the induction coil of metal-sheet edges of flowing through is tending towards along the flow path of more close metallic plate central area through near the induced current the metal-sheet edges, so can reduce.In other words, attempt to be connected to each other by the top induced current of upper induction coil induction with by the bottom induced current of lower induction coil induction along the shortest path.Near the edge of metallic plate, provide the induced current flow passage of broad like this, thereby near the current density that suppresses the edge increases.Therefore, when upper induction coil and lower induction coil have edge region with respect to the part of horizontal direction diagonally extending,, can suppress the overheated of fringe region effectively with respect to the induction coil that does not have this sloping portion.
When the distance between maintenance upper induction coil and lower induction coil made that the metallic plate central area is heated efficiently, the less relatively distance of induction coil had suppressed the overheated of fringe region with being in tilted layout in the metal-sheet edges zone.As a result, in the example of Fig. 6, even heating has in a lateral direction appearred.
Diverse location place upper induction coil in a lateral direction and the optimum distance between the lower induction coil should be determined after consideration will be heated the existing Temperature Distribution of metallic plate.In metallic plate, have three kinds of different representational existing Temperature Distribution, for example, metallic plate has smooth Temperature Distribution (identical with the fringe region temperature in the central area), metallic plate has edge region Temperature Distribution or the metallic plate low slightly with respect to the central area temperature and has the edge region Temperature Distribution high slightly with respect to the central area temperature.
In the present invention, be positioned at the top of induction coil of metallic plate top and the lower part that is positioned at the induction coil below the metallic plate and be set to lay respectively at along the different position of the longitudinal direction of metallic plate in a position in a lateral direction of metallic plate at least, the distance between the wherein said diverse location changes in a lateral direction.The shape of induction coil is not limited to shown in Figure 6 the sort of.For example, shape shown in Figure 9, wherein place along opposite direction the shape top, a pair of sharp turn of induction coil and lower part, or the shape shown in Figure 10, wherein place along opposite direction a pair of arc top of induction coil and lower part, can be as the shape of induction coil.Also can use the shape of various other shapes as induction coil.For example, can use shape shown in Figure 11, wherein, only upper induction coil is a hat, and lower induction coil is straight.In addition, can use shape shown in Figure 12, wherein a pair of dogleg shapes is placed along opposite direction, but this shape longitudinal centre line symmetry of metallic plate relatively not.In Figure 12, Reference numeral 2a represents to be positioned at the upper induction coil of metallic plate 1 top, Reference numeral 2b represents to be positioned at the lower induction coil of metallic plate 1 below, and Reference numeral 7,8 and 9 is represented conductive component, AC power supplies respectively and is positioned near the induction coil of metal-sheet edges.
In the example depicted in fig. 13, the distance of central area is less, and upper induction coil has the width that narrows down and the sloping portion of edge region in the central area.Reference numeral 7,8 and 9 is represented conductive component, AC power supplies respectively and is positioned near the induction coil of metal-sheet edges.The quadratic sum of the thermal transpiration of known induction heating equipment and current density is proportional heating time.In the example of Figure 13, the current density of central area is higher than the current density of fringe region, because in the narrowed width of central area induction coil, causes the thermal transpiration of central area to increase with respect to the thermal transpiration of fringe region.
When the metallic plate of sending into induction heating equipment has existing Temperature Distribution, wherein the temperature of a little higher than central area of temperature of fringe region (temperature of central area is lower than the temperature of fringe region slightly) has the metallic plate that more uniform temperature distributes after the equipment of Figure 13 can be preferred for obtaining to heat.
In the example depicted in fig. 14, as in the example of Fig. 6, upper induction coil 2a and lower induction coil 2b edge region are arranged obliquely, thereby the distance value between the two diminishes towards the edge of metallic plate.
Reference numeral 7,8 and 9 is represented conductive component, AC power supplies respectively and is positioned near the induction coil of metal-sheet edges.In the example of Figure 14, yet the distance between upper induction coil and the lower induction coil is greater than upper induction coil among Fig. 6 and the distance between the lower induction coil.So in the equipment of Figure 14, the temperature that can be expected at fringe region increases and increases greater than the temperature in equipment shown in Figure 6.Therefore, the example of Figure 14 is applicable to the temperature metallic plate low with respect to the temperature of central area of heating fringe region.
Figure 15 shows a kind of equipment, and wherein with regard to the projected image of two coils, upper induction coil and lower induction coil edge region intersect.In this example, being desirably in the central area has bigger thermal transpiration, and edge region has less thermal transpiration.This orientation is applicable to the metallic plate that the temperature of heated center region is lower with respect to fringe region.
Figure 16 shows a kind of equipment, upper induction coil 2a and the lower induction coil 2b sweep that has edge region respectively wherein, wherein each induction coil of edge region all strides across the metallic plate extension obliquely with respect to horizontal direction, and the width of induction coil is greater than the width in the central area.Reference numeral 7,8 and 9 is represented conductive component, AC power supplies respectively and is positioned near the induction coil of metal-sheet edges.In this example, the current density of metallic plate central area is higher than the current density of the metallic plate central area among Fig. 6.Therefore, the thermal transpiration of central area is greater than the thermal transpiration of the central area among Fig. 6, because the quadratic sum of thermal transpiration and current density is proportional heating time.
Figure 17 shows a kind of equipment, upper induction coil 2a and the lower induction coil 2b sweep that has edge region respectively wherein, wherein each induction coil of edge region all strides across the metallic plate extension obliquely with respect to horizontal direction, and the inclination angle of upper induction coil and lower induction coil is different, thereby the distance between two induction coils can reduce gradually from the central area to fringe region and edge.
In Figure 17, metallic plate is wide more, and the thermal transpiration of fringe region is more little.When the width of metallic plate increased, as increasing to II-II ' from width I-I ' in Figure 17, or the temperature difference of metal { (temperature in metal-sheet edges zone)-(temperature of metallic plate central area) } was when increasing, and this example is suitable.
Figure 18 shows a kind of equipment, upper induction coil 2a and the lower induction coil 2b sweep that has edge region respectively wherein, wherein each induction coil of edge region all strides across the metallic plate extension obliquely with respect to horizontal direction, and the inclination angle of upper induction coil and lower induction coil is different, thereby the distance between two induction coils can increase gradually from the central area to fringe region and edge.In Figure 18, metallic plate is wide more, and the thermal transpiration of fringe region is big more.When the width of metallic plate increased, as increasing to II-II ' from width I-I ' in Figure 18, or the temperature in metal-sheet edges zone was with respect to the temperature step-down of central area, and this example is suitable.After using this equipment heating, can expect that obtaining more uniform temperature distributes.
In the actual motion of firing equipment of the present invention, in order to obtain necessary thermal transpiration, can determine the width of described distance and/or induction coil in advance to each position in a lateral direction by electromagnetic field analysis.Yet because the fluctuation in last technology, the metallic plate of sending in the induction heating equipment of the present invention may have initial variations in temperature.So,, also may can not get necessary thermal transpiration even adopted the predetermined distance and/or the width of induction coil.
If the distance between upper induction coil and the lower induction coil increases, then help avoid the counteracting of metallic plate induced currents and increased heating time, this causes thermal transpiration to increase.In another embodiment of the present invention, its middle distance is adjustable, for the variations in temperature of the metal of sending into, can obtain required temperature by regulating this distance, and irrelevant with the existing state of temperature that is caused by last technology.

Control thermal transpiration by the distance value that changes between upper induction coil and the lower induction coil as mentioned above.So for example, distance value can be according to the temperature change of the metallic plate of the thermometer measure that is positioned at the induction heating equipment upstream.
In order to obtain in a lateral direction the thermal transpiration that each position needs, can determine the width of described distance and/or induction coil in advance to each position in a lateral direction by electromagnetic field analysis.Yet,, may not obtain to have the metallic plate of uniform temperature distribution, even above-mentioned preset distance value is adopted in induction coil each position in a lateral direction when the width of metallic plate changes when changing according to manufacture.
Figure 21 shows and is used to make another embodiment of the distance variable of each position in a lateral direction, and this embodiment can obtain even temperature and distribute, even during the change width of the metallic plate of carrying.
