Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an anode plate stacking device, and more specifically to an adjustable anode plate stacking device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, anode plate stacking devices are non-adjustable. These devices typically consist of a beam and columns, resembling the letter "L". The bottom of the anode plate rests on the beam of the L-shaped stack, while its sides lean against the L-shaped columns at an angle. During the tilted stacking process, bulges may appear on the contact surfaces between the anode plates due to casting defects. These bulges result in larger angles between the anode plates. Since the anode plates are generally of similar size, if the angle between one anode plate and the others differs significantly, the tops of the anode plates will become uneven, making it impossible for the hoisting clamps to hold the anode plates securely. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and provide an adjustable anode plate stacking device.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] An adjustable anode plate stacking device includes a crossbeam, two columns rotatably mounted at one end of the crossbeam, and a plurality of anode plate bodies placed on the upper end of the crossbeam and tilting as the columns rotate. The upper end of each anode plate body is provided with a lifting lug. The device also includes:

[0006] A drive mechanism is provided on the column and is used to drive the column to rotate on the crossbeam;

[0007] A constant height mechanism, in conjunction with the crossbeam, maintains a constant placement height of the anode plate body;

[0008] An adjustment mechanism is used to adjust the tilt angle of the anode plate bodies placed at a constant height so that the tilt angle of each anode plate body is the same.

[0009] Preferably, the drive mechanism includes:

[0010] A square shaft is provided on the column;

[0011] A worm gear is fitted onto the square shaft;

[0012] A worm gear meshes with and drives the worm wheel to rotate. The crossbeam is provided with a mounting base for mounting the worm gear and a power source for driving the worm gear to rotate.

[0013] Preferably, the constant height mechanism includes:

[0014] Two first rotating rods are symmetrically and rotatably located on the inner sides of the two columns;

[0015] The constant height component rotates synchronously with the column, but in the opposite direction and at the same angle. The constant height component remains parallel to the crossbeam after the column rotates.

[0016] A power component is used to drive the constant height component to rotate in the opposite direction to the rotation of the column.

[0017] Preferably, the constant height component includes:

[0018] A telescopic plate abuts against the top of the anode plate body to maintain a constant placement height of the anode plate body;

[0019] The rotating plate rotates synchronously with the first rotating rod. The rotating plate has a first sliding groove for the telescopic plate to slide in, and the rotating plate has a first cylinder for driving the telescopic plate to slide.

[0020] Preferably, the power assembly includes:

[0021] A gear meshes with the worm gear, a second rotating rod passes through the gear and is rotatably connected to the column, and a rotating ring is sleeved on the second rotating rod;

[0022] The first transmission belt has one end rotatably connected to the rotating ring and the other end rotatably connected to the first rotating rod.

[0023] Preferably, the allocation mechanism includes:

[0024] The second transmission belt is located on one side of the crossbeam, and the crossbeam is provided with a rotating shaft for driving the second transmission belt to generate transmission. A second motor for driving the rotating shaft to rotate is connected to the rotating shaft.

[0025] The adjusting assembly moves with the drive of the second drive belt to adjust the tilt angle of each of the anode plate bodies.

[0026] Preferably, the allocation component includes:

[0027] A movable seat is connected to the second transmission belt. The movable seat is provided with a second sliding groove, and the upper end of the movable seat is provided with a first fixing plate and a second fixing plate.

[0028] An adjusting plate is rotatably and slidably mounted on the movable seat. It rotates to abut against the side wall of the anode plate body to push the top of the anode plate body into contact with the telescopic plate, ensuring that the tilt angle of each anode plate body is equal and that each anode plate body abuts against the anode plate body adjacent to the right side. A U-shaped seat is rotatably mounted on the adjusting plate.

[0029] A baffle is rotatably mounted on the movable seat, and the baffle rotates coaxially with the adjusting plate to restrict the movement of adjacent anode plate bodies;

[0030] The second cylinder is used to drive the adjusting plate to slide in the second slide groove to push the anode plate body;

[0031] A driving component is used to drive the adjusting plate and the baffle to rotate.

[0035] A first motor is used to drive the outer shaft and the inner shaft to rotate.

[0036] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0037] 1. This invention, by setting up a driving mechanism, drives a motor to drive a worm gear to rotate, which in turn drives a worm wheel to rotate, which in turn drives a square shaft to rotate, thereby driving the column to rotate. This makes the tilt angle of the anode plate body easier to lift and clamp the anode plate body in the future. The cooperation between the worm wheel and the worm gear has a self-locking effect, which makes the column stable after the angle is adjusted.

[0038] 2. By setting a constant height mechanism, the rotating plate rotates synchronously with the column, in the opposite direction, and at the same angle, so that the rotating plate is always parallel to the crossbeam. This facilitates the later unification of the height of the anode plate body and ensures that the top of the anode plate body is at the same horizontal line.

[0039] 3. By setting up an adjustment mechanism, the adjustment plate adjusts the angle of each anode plate body so that the top of each anode plate body abuts against the telescopic plate, thereby making the top of the anode plate body on the same horizontal line and avoiding unevenness of the top of the anode plate body, thus making it easier for the lifting clamp to hold the anode plate body.

[0053] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. 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.

[0054] Please see Figure 1-6 An adjustable anode plate stacking device includes a crossbeam 1, two columns 2 rotatably mounted at one end of the crossbeam 1, and multiple anode plate bodies 3 placed on the upper end of the crossbeam 1 and tilting as the columns 2 rotate. The upper end of each anode plate body 3 is provided with a lifting lug 31. The device also includes:

[0055] A drive mechanism is mounted on column 2 and is used to drive column 2 to rotate on beam 1;

[0056] The constant height mechanism, in conjunction with the crossbeam 1, maintains a constant placement height of the anode plate body 3;

[0057] An adjustment mechanism is used to adjust the tilt angle of the anode plate body 3 placed at a constant height so that the tilt angle of each anode plate body 3 is the same.

[0058] With this design, the drive mechanism drives the column 2 to rotate, and one anode plate body 3 near the column 2 tilts as the column 2 rotates, with the side of the anode plate body 3 closest to the column 2 resting against the column 2. At this time, multiple anode plate bodies 3 on the left side of the anode plate body 3 also tilt accordingly. The constant height mechanism limits the maximum height of the top of the tilted anode plate body 3 so that after the adjustment mechanism adjusts the angle of the anode plate body 3, the top ends of all the anode plate bodies 3 are in a parallel state, which solves the problem of unevenness between the tops of the anode plates and makes it easier for the hoisting clamps to hold the anode plates.

[0059] In one embodiment, the drive mechanism includes:

[0060] Square shaft 61 is mounted on column 2;

[0061] Worm gear 63 is sleeved on square shaft 61;

[0062] The worm 62 meshes with the worm wheel 63 and is used to drive the worm wheel 63 to rotate. The crossbeam 1 is provided with a mounting seat 64 for mounting the worm 62 and a power source for driving the worm 62 to rotate.

[0063] In this design, the square shaft 61 is fixedly connected to the worm gear 63, and the square shaft 61 is also fixedly connected to the column 2. The column 2 is rotatably connected to the crossbeam 1. The power source is a drive motor, which drives the worm 62 to rotate, thereby driving the worm gear 63 to rotate, which in turn drives the square shaft 61 to rotate, thus driving the column 2 to rotate. This adjusts the tilt angle of the anode plate body 3 to facilitate subsequent hoisting and clamping of the anode plate body 3. The cooperation between the worm gear 63 and the worm 62 has a self-locking function, ensuring the stability of the column 2 after the angle is adjusted.

[0064] In one embodiment, the constant height mechanism includes:

[0065] Two first rotating rods 44 are symmetrically and rotatably located on the inner side of the two columns 2;

[0066] The constant height component rotates synchronously with column 2, and the rotation direction is opposite and the rotation angle is equal. After column 2 rotates, the constant height component remains parallel to the crossbeam 1.

[0067] The power component is used to drive the constant height component to rotate in the opposite direction to the rotation of column 2.

[0068] With this design, the first rotating rod 44 is rotatably connected to the column 2.

[0069] In one embodiment, the constant height component includes:

[0070] The telescopic plate 42 abuts against the top of the anode plate body 3 and is used to keep the placement height of the anode plate body 3 constant.

[0071] The rotating plate 41 rotates synchronously with the first rotating rod 44. The rotating plate 41 is provided with a first sliding groove 49 for the telescopic plate 42 to slide, and the rotating plate 41 is provided with a first cylinder 43 for driving the telescopic plate 42 to slide.

[0072] With this design, both ends of the rotating plate 41 are fixedly connected to the first rotating rod 44; the first cylinder 43 is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating plate 41 and the output end of the first cylinder 43 extends into the rotating plate 41 and is fixedly connected to the telescopic plate 42.

[0073] In one embodiment, the power assembly includes:

[0074] Gear 47 meshes with worm gear 63. A second rotating rod 48 passes through gear 47 and is rotatably connected to column 2. A rotating ring 46 is sleeved on the second rotating rod 48.

[0075] The first transmission belt 45 is rotatably connected at one end to the rotating ring 46 and at the other end to the first rotating rod 44.

[0076] With this design, the second rotating rod 48 is rotatably connected to the column 2, and the rotating ring 46 and gear 47 are both fixedly connected to the second rotating rod 48.

[0077] With this design, when the worm gear 63 rotates, the gear 47 rotates in the opposite direction. Under the action of the first transmission belt 45, it drives the rotating plate 41 to rotate synchronously with the column 2, in the opposite direction, and with the same rotation angle. This ensures that the rotating plate 41 is always parallel to the crossbeam 1, which facilitates the later unification of the height of the anode plate body 3 and ensures that the top of the anode plate body 3 is on the same horizontal line. Then, the first cylinder 43 drives the telescopic plate 42 to move out of the rotating plate 41. The telescopic plate 42 presses against the top of the anode plate body 3. At this time, the height of all anode plate bodies 3 is less than or equal to that of the telescopic plate 42. When it is necessary to hoist and clamp the adjusted anode plate body 3 later, the telescopic plate 42 moves into the rotating plate 41, which does not hinder the hoisting and clamping of the anode plate body 3 in the vertical direction.

[0078] In one embodiment, the allocation mechanism includes:

[0079] The second transmission belt 501 is located on one side of the crossbeam 1, and the crossbeam 1 is provided with a rotating shaft 502 for driving the second transmission belt 501 to generate transmission. A second motor 516 for driving the rotating shaft 502 to rotate is connected to the rotating shaft 502.

[0080] The adjusting assembly moves with the drive of the second drive belt 501 to adjust the tilt angle of each anode plate body 3.

[0081] In this design, there are two rotating shafts 502, located at both ends inside the second transmission belt 501. The second motor 516 is fixedly mounted on the crossbeam 1, and the output shaft of the second motor 516 is fixedly connected to one of the rotating shafts 502 via a coupling. The second motor 516 drives the rotating shaft 502 to rotate, thereby driving the second transmission belt 501 to generate power.

[0082] In one embodiment, the allocation component includes:

[0083] The movable seat 503 is connected to the second transmission belt 501. The movable seat 503 is provided with a second sliding groove 513. The upper end of the movable seat 503 is provided with a first fixing plate 504 and a second fixing plate 512.

[0084] The adjusting plate 508 is rotatably and slidably mounted on the movable seat 503. It rotates to abut against the side wall of the anode plate body 3 to push the top of the anode plate body 3 to contact the telescopic plate 42, ensuring that the tilt angle of each anode plate body 3 is equal and that each anode plate body 3 abuts against the anode plate body 3 adjacent to the right. A U-shaped seat 506 is rotatably mounted on the adjusting plate 508.

[0085] Baffle 511 is rotatably mounted on movable seat 503, and baffle 511 rotates coaxially with adjusting plate 508 to restrict the movement of adjacent anode plate body 3.

[0086] The second cylinder 505 is used to drive the adjusting plate 508 to slide in the second slide groove 513 to push the anode plate body 3.

[0087] A driving component is used to drive the adjustment plate 508 and the baffle 511 to rotate.

[0088] With this design, the movable seat 503 is fixedly installed on the second transmission belt 501. It is worth noting that the movable seat 503 adjusts each anode plate body 3 from right to left as the second transmission belt 501 drives it.

[0089] In one embodiment, the driving element includes:

[0090] An external shaft 509 is connected to an adjustment plate 508, and a groove 514 is provided on the external shaft 509;

[0091] An inner shaft 510 is connected to a baffle 511, and the inner shaft 510 is provided with a protrusion 515 that slides in a groove 514;

[0092] The first motor 507 is used to drive the rotation of the outer shaft 509 and the inner shaft 510.

[0093] In this design, the outer shaft 509 is sleeved on the inner shaft 510, and the inner shaft 510 slides within the outer shaft 509; the first fixed plate 504 and the second fixed plate 512 are both fixedly installed on the upper end of the movable seat 503; the second cylinder 505 is fixedly installed on the first fixed plate 504, and the output end of the second cylinder 505 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped seat 506; the first motor 507 is fixedly installed on the U-shaped seat 506, and the output shaft of the first motor 507 is fixedly connected to the outer shaft 509 through a coupling; the outer shaft 509 is fixedly connected to the adjusting plate 508, and the outer shaft 509 is rotatably connected to the U-shaped seat 506; the inner shaft 510 is fixedly connected to the baffle 511; and the inner shaft 510 is rotatably connected to the second fixed plate 512.

[0094] With this design, the initial state of the adjusting plate 508 and the baffle 511 is perpendicular to the moving seat 503. The moving seat 503 moves with the second transmission belt 501 to the side of the anode plate body 3 whose angle needs to be adjusted. The first motor 507 drives the adjusting plate 508 and the baffle 511 to rotate towards the anode plate body 3. The adjusting plate 508 abuts against the side of the anode plate body 3 whose angle needs to be adjusted, and the baffle 511 restricts the adjacent anode plate body 3 on the right side of the anode plate body 3 from sliding to the left. The second cylinder 505 drives the U-shaped seat 506 to slide to the right in the second slide groove 513, so that the adjusting plate 508 pushes the bottom end of the anode plate body 3 to slide to the right. The acute angle of the anode plate body 3 gradually increases until the top of the anode plate body 3 abuts against the telescopic plate 42. The adjusting plate 508 repeats this process, adjusting the angle of each anode plate body 3 so that the top of each anode plate body 3 abuts against the telescopic plate 42, thereby ensuring that the tops of the anode plate bodies 3 are on the same horizontal line and avoiding unevenness at the tops of the anode plate bodies 3.

[0095] It is worth noting that the cooperation between the protrusion 515 and the groove 514 allows the outer shaft 509 to move along the inner shaft 510 when the movable seat 503 slides in the second slide groove 513, and at the same time ensures that the inner shaft 510 is driven to rotate when the first motor 507 drives the outer shaft 509 to rotate.

[0096] It is worth noting that the length, width, and height of the baffle 511 should be as small as possible, so as to limit the adjacent anode plate body 3 on the right side, and avoid the large gap between the two adjacent anode plate bodies 3 due to excessive size.

[0097] Working principle: During use, the drive mechanism drives the column 2 to rotate. As the column 2 rotates, one anode plate body 3 near the column 2 tilts and the side of the anode plate body 3 closest to the column 2 rests against the column 2. At this time, multiple anode plate bodies 3 on the left side of the anode plate body 3 also tilt accordingly. The constant height mechanism limits the maximum height of the top of the tilted anode plate body 3 so that after the adjustment mechanism adjusts the angle of the anode plate body 3, the top of all the anode plate bodies 3 are in a parallel state. This solves the problem of unevenness between the tops of the anode plates and makes it easier for the hoisting clamps to hold the anode plates.

[0098] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indications are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0099] Furthermore, if the embodiments of this invention involve descriptions such as "first," "second," etc., these descriptions are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the meaning of "and / or" throughout the text includes three parallel solutions; for example, "A and / or B" includes solution A, solution B, or a solution where A and B are simultaneously satisfied. Furthermore, "multiple" refers to two or more. Moreover, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this invention. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and that this invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalents of the claims be included within the invention.
