Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cathode carbon block technology, specifically to a cathode carbon block clamp for an aluminum electrolysis cell. Background Technology

[0002] In the aluminum electrolysis industry, the pre-anode electrolytic cells used in aluminum electrolysis plants require cathode carbon blocks of a certain size. During the manufacturing process of cathode carbon blocks, due to the requirements of different production processes, clamps are needed to lift the cathode carbon blocks. Before lifting, the carbon blocks need to be tied up and then lifted with hooks and claws.

[0003] While existing equipment can improve stability, it cannot clamp cathode carbon blocks of different sizes and quantities, resulting in low work efficiency. Furthermore, it cannot limit the position of the cathode carbon blocks during clamping, which can easily lead to unstable clamping and the risk of the cathode carbon blocks falling due to insufficient force during hoisting.

[0004] To address the above problems, the present invention provides a cathode carbon block clamp for an aluminum electrolysis cell. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cathode carbon block clamp for aluminum electrolysis cells. By activating a first motor, a first threaded rod rotates, which in turn moves a movable block. This movable block then moves a connecting block, which in turn moves an mounting block. This increases the distance between the first and second clamps, expanding the clamping range. The rubber pad increases friction with the carbon block surface, reducing the risk of the cathode carbon block falling during transport and protecting the surface from scratches, thus improving the quality of the carbon block. Activating a second motor rotates a second threaded rod, which in turn moves a lifting block. This lifting block moves an inclined block and a slider. The inclined block moves and presses against a movable wheel, which in turn moves a push plate. This push plate then moves a locking block, effectively limiting the position of the cathode carbon block and ensuring a more secure and reliable clamping. This improves safety and production efficiency during cathode carbon block manufacturing, thus solving the problems of inconvenient clamping of different numbers of cathode carbon blocks and poor clamping effect in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a cathode carbon block clamp for an aluminum electrolysis cell, comprising a first support frame, a first clamp fixedly connected to the right side of the first support frame, a first motor fixedly connected to the right side of the first clamp, a first threaded rod fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor, a movable block sleeved on the left side of the first threaded rod extending into the inner cavity of the first clamp, a connecting block fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the movable block, an mounting block fixedly connected to the side of the connecting block away from the movable block extending into the outer side of the first clamp, a second clamp movably connected to the side of the mounting block away from the connecting block via a pivot pin, a second support frame fixedly connected to the right side of the second clamp, and a limit mechanism provided at the bottom of both the first support frame and the second support frame.

[0007] Furthermore, rubber pads are fixedly connected to the surfaces of both the first and second support frames, and positioning blocks are fixedly connected to opposite sides of both the first and second support frames by bolts.

[0008] Furthermore, the surface of the first threaded rod is movably connected to the first clamp via a first bearing, and the surface of the first clamp is provided with a first sliding groove that cooperates with the connecting block.

[0009] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism includes a limiting box, a second motor is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting box, a second threaded rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor, the bottom of the second threaded rod penetrates into the inner cavity of the limiting box and is fitted with a lifting block, an inclined block is fixedly connected to one side of each of the two lifting blocks, a movable wheel is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inclined block, a push plate is fixedly connected to the side of the movable wheel away from the inclined block, and a locking block is fixedly connected to the side of the push plate away from the movable wheel.

[0010] Furthermore, the front and rear sides of the lifting block are fixedly connected to sliders, and the inner wall of the limiting box is provided with a second sliding groove that cooperates with the sliders.

[0011] Furthermore, the surface of the second threaded rod is movably connected to the limiting box via a second bearing, and the surface of the limiting box is provided with a through hole for use with the locking block.

[0012] Furthermore, a fixing block is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the bottom of the limiting box cavity, and a sliding rod is fixedly connected to the opposite side of the two fixing blocks. The end of the sliding rod away from the fixing block passes through the push plate and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the limiting box. A spring is sleeved on the surface of the sliding rod.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0014] This invention provides a cathode carbon block clamp for an aluminum electrolysis cell. By activating a first motor, a first threaded rod can be rotated, which in turn moves a movable block, which in turn moves a connecting block, which in turn moves an mounting block. This increases the distance between the first and second clamps, allowing for the clamping of different quantities and specifications of cathode carbon blocks. It is highly versatile and avoids the drawbacks of manually inserting and removing positioning pins, reducing labor costs and improving the efficiency of carbon block hoisting. Furthermore, the limiting mechanism effectively limits the position of the cathode carbon blocks, ensuring a more secure and reliable clamping. This improves safety and production efficiency during the cathode carbon block manufacturing process. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] To solve the technical problem of inconvenience in clamping different numbers of cathode carbon blocks, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the following preferred technical solutions are provided:

[0022] A cathode carbon block clamp for an aluminum electrolytic cell includes a first support frame 1. A first clamp 2 is fixedly connected to the right side of the first support frame 1. A first motor 3 is fixedly connected to the right side of the first clamp 2. A first threaded rod 4 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 3. The left side of the first threaded rod 4 extends into the inner cavity of the first clamp 2 and is fitted with a movable block 5. Connecting blocks 6 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the movable block 5. The side of the connecting block 6 away from the movable block 5 extends into the outer side of the first clamp 2 and is fixedly connected to an mounting block 7. A second clamp 8 is movably connected to the side of the mounting block 7 away from the connecting block 6 via a shaft pin. A second support frame 9 is fixedly connected to the right side of the second clamp 8. Limiting mechanisms 10 are provided at the bottom of both the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 9.

[0023] Specifically, in use, the user can rotate the first threaded rod 4 by turning on the first motor 3. The first threaded rod 4 drives the movable block 5 to move, the movable block 5 drives the connecting block 6 to move, and the connecting block 6 drives the mounting block 7 to move. This increases the distance between the first clamp 2 and the second clamp 8, expanding the clamping range. By setting the rubber pad 11, the friction between the pad and the carbon block surface is increased, reducing the risk of the cathode carbon block falling during hoisting and protecting the carbon block surface from scratches, thus improving the quality of the carbon block. By turning on the second motor... Machine 1002 can drive the second threaded rod 1003 to rotate. The second threaded rod 1003 drives the lifting block 1004 to move. The lifting block 1004 drives the inclined block 1005 and the slider 1009 to move. The inclined block 1005 moves and squeezes the movable wheel 1006 to move. The movable wheel 1006 drives the push plate 1007 to move. The push plate 1007 drives the clamping block 1008 to move. This can limit the position of the cathode carbon block, ensuring that the cathode carbon block is clamped more firmly and reliably, and improving the safety factor and production efficiency in the cathode carbon block manufacturing process.

[0024] To solve the technical problem of inconvenience in clamping different numbers of cathode carbon blocks, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the following preferred technical solutions are provided:

[0025] Rubber pads 11 are fixedly connected to the surfaces of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 9. Positioning blocks 12 are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 9 by bolts. The surface of the first threaded rod 4 is movably connected to the first clamp 2 through the first bearing. The surface of the first clamp 2 is provided with a first sliding groove 13 that cooperates with the connecting block 6.

[0026] Specifically, by setting the rubber pad 11, the friction between the pad and the carbon block surface is increased, reducing the risk of the cathode carbon block falling during hoisting and protecting the carbon block surface from being scratched, thus improving the quality of the carbon block. By setting the positioning block 12, the stability of the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 9 can be improved. By setting the first bearing, the use of the first threaded rod 4 is facilitated. By setting the first sliding groove 13, the use of the connecting block 6 is facilitated.

[0027] To solve the technical problem of poor clamping effect, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the following preferred technical solutions are provided:

[0028] The limiting mechanism 10 includes a limiting box 1001. A second motor 1002 is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting box 1001. A second threaded rod 1003 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 1002. The bottom of the second threaded rod 1003 penetrates into the inner cavity of the limiting box 1001 and is fitted with a lifting block 1004. An inclined block 1005 is fixedly connected to one side of each of the two lifting blocks 1004. A movable wheel 1006 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inclined block 1005. A push plate 1007 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable wheel 1006 away from the inclined block 1005. A locking block 1008 is fixedly connected to the side of the push plate 1007 away from the movable wheel 1006. The front and rear sides of the lifting blocks 1004 are fixedly connected to... A slider 1009 is fixedly connected to the limit box 1001. The inner wall of the limit box 1001 is provided with a second sliding groove 1010 that cooperates with the slider 1009. The surface of the second threaded rod 1003 is movably connected to the limit box 1001 through a second bearing. The surface of the limit box 1001 is provided with a through hole 1011 that cooperates with the locking block 1008. Fixing blocks 1012 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the bottom of the inner cavity of the limit box 1001. A sliding rod 1013 is fixedly connected to the opposite side of the two fixing blocks 1012. The end of the sliding rod 1013 away from the fixing block 1012 passes through the push plate 1007 and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the limit box 1001. A spring 1014 is sleeved on the surface of the sliding rod 1013.

[0029] Specifically, by activating the second motor 1002, the second threaded rod 1003 can be rotated. The second threaded rod 1003 drives the lifting block 1004 to move. The lifting block 1004 drives the inclined block 1005 and the slider 1009 to move. The inclined block 1005 moves and presses the movable wheel 1006 to move. The movable wheel 1006 drives the push plate 1007 to move. The push plate 1007 drives the locking block 1008 to move, which can limit the position of the cathode carbon block. The second slide groove 1010 facilitates the use of the slider 1009. The second bearing facilitates the use of the second threaded rod 1003. The through hole 1011 facilitates the use of the locking block 1008. The spring 1014 facilitates the reset of the push plate 1007. The fixing block 1012 limits the position of the push plate 1007.

[0030] Working principle: During use, the user turns on the first motor 3, which drives the first threaded rod 4 to rotate. The first threaded rod 4 drives the movable block 5 to move, the movable block 5 drives the connecting block 6 to move, and the connecting block 6 drives the mounting block 7 to move. This increases the distance between the first clamp 2 and the second clamp 8, expanding the clamping range. The rubber pad 11 increases the friction between the pad and the carbon block surface, reducing the risk of the cathode carbon block falling during hoisting and protecting the carbon block surface from scratches, thus improving the quality of the carbon block. Turning on the second motor... Machine 1002 can drive the second threaded rod 1003 to rotate. The second threaded rod 1003 drives the lifting block 1004 to move. The lifting block 1004 drives the inclined block 1005 and the slider 1009 to move. The inclined block 1005 moves and squeezes the movable wheel 1006 to move. The movable wheel 1006 drives the push plate 1007 to move. The push plate 1007 drives the clamping block 1008 to move. This can limit the position of the cathode carbon block, ensuring that the cathode carbon block is clamped more firmly and reliably, and improving the safety factor and production efficiency in the cathode carbon block manufacturing process.

[0031] In summary, this aluminum electrolysis cell cathode carbon block clamp, through the coordinated use of the first support frame 1, the first clamp 2, the first motor 3, the first threaded rod 4, the movable block 5, the connecting block 6, the mounting block 7, the second clamp 8, the second support frame 9, the limiting mechanism 10, the limiting box 1001, the second motor 1002, the second threaded rod 1003, the lifting block 1004, the inclined block 1005, the movable wheel 1006, the push plate 1007, the locking block 1008, the slider 1009, the second sliding groove 1010, the through hole 1011, the fixing block 1012, the sliding rod 1013, the spring 1014, the rubber pad 11, the positioning block 12, and the first sliding groove 13, solves the problems of existing cathode carbon block clamps being inconvenient to clamp different numbers of cathode carbon blocks and having poor clamping effect.
