Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of aluminum suction tube repair technology, and in particular to an aluminum suction tube repair device. Background Technology
[0002] In electrolytic production, the vacuum ladle is a key piece of equipment for transporting molten aluminum, and the aluminum suction tube is an important component of the vacuum ladle and also a major consumable material. During use, due to the corrosion of the high-temperature molten aluminum, the aluminum suction tube will experience varying degrees of damage at its tip. This damage includes holes or cracks on the surface of the suction tube, which not only affects production organization and aluminum tapping progress but also increases the consumption of aluminum suction tubes.
[0003] The existing repair method involves removing the aluminum suction tube after a period of use, grinding its surface, and then manually welding it to repair any damage. This method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also misses many tiny cracks that are difficult to find manually. When the cracks are not repaired and the suction tube is put back into use, larger cracks or even holes will appear in a short period of time. Frequent replacement and repair reduce production efficiency. Another existing technology involves removing the aluminum tube and then using components to detect and locate the cracks for repair. This method is often more expensive and takes longer. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an aluminum suction tube repair device, which reduces the repair time of aluminum suction tube and can fully repair the damaged parts of aluminum suction tube.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by the present invention is as follows:
[0006] A repair device for an aluminum suction tube includes an aluminum suction tube and a repair device disposed on the outside of the aluminum suction tube. The repair device includes a filler assembly and a clamping assembly disposed below the filler assembly. The aluminum suction tube extends into the filler assembly and the clamping assembly. A filler material is disposed between the repair device and the aluminum suction tube. The clamping assembly includes a plurality of arc-shaped clamping plates with a gap between adjacent clamping plates. A connecting groove is provided inside the clamping plate, and a connecting plate is slidably disposed in the connecting groove. A driving member I is provided at one end of the clamping plate for driving the clamping plate to move along the aluminum suction tube. The driving member I drives the clamping plate and the connecting plate to gradually approach the aluminum suction tube, squeezing and adhering the filler material to the surface of the aluminum suction tube.
[0007] Preferably, the filler is cold-mixed paste.
[0008] Preferably, the clamping assembly further includes a clamping cylinder, the clamping cylinder being hollow inside, and the clamping plate being disposed inside the clamping cylinder.
[0009] Preferably, a number of support seats are provided on the circumferential surface of the clamping cylinder, and the driving component I is detachably connected to the support seats.
[0010] Preferably, one end of the clamping cylinder is provided with an opening, and a plurality of sliding grooves are provided inside the clamping cylinder. The sliding grooves are arranged along the direction of the opening, and one end of the connecting plate is provided with a protrusion that can slide into the sliding groove.
[0011] Preferably, a support block is provided at the lower end of the support cylinder, and a channel is provided between the support block and the support cylinder. A rotating component for uniformly distributing the filler is provided in the channel.
[0012] Preferably, the rotating assembly includes a rotating ring, a connecting rod, and a connecting block. The rotating ring is rotatably disposed in the channel, and the connecting block is disposed below the connecting ring and connected by several connecting rods. The connecting block and the support block are rotatably connected.
[0013] Preferably, the rotating assembly further includes a connecting cylinder, in which the rotating ring, connecting rod, and connecting block are disposed. A driving component II is also disposed in the connecting cylinder, which is connected to the connecting block and is used to drive the connecting block to rotate, thereby driving the rotating ring to rotate.
[0014] Preferably, the packing assembly includes a feed cylinder disposed above the clamping cylinder, the feed cylinder having a through hole inside, and an inclined plate inclined toward the through hole surrounding the through hole.
[0015] Preferably, the repair device has a support column inside, which passes through the feed cylinder, the clamping cylinder and the connecting cylinder, and is located at the center of the feed cylinder, the clamping cylinder and the connecting cylinder.
[0016] The present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:
[0017] In this invention, cold-mixed paste particles are poured between the aluminum suction tube and the clamping plate, and the connecting ring is rotated to distribute the cold-mixed paste evenly on the surface of the aluminum suction tube, preventing any omissions during the repair process.
[0018] II. In this invention, the clamping plate and the connecting plate form a circle, with the connecting plate between the clamping plates to prevent cold-mixed paste particles from entering the gap between the clamping plates. When the driving component I moves the clamping plate closer to the aluminum suction tube, the clamping plate moves the connecting plate, and the gap between the clamping plates becomes smaller and smaller, squeezing the cold-mixed paste onto the surface of the aluminum suction tube. No inspection or welding is required, reducing repair time.

Detailed Implementation
[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, 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 some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments.
[0030] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the invention.
[0031] Example
[0032] like Figure 1-8As shown, an aluminum suction tube repair device includes an aluminum suction tube 1 and a repair device disposed outside the aluminum suction tube 1. The repair device includes a filler assembly and a clamping assembly disposed below the filler assembly. The aluminum suction tube 1 extends into the filler assembly and the clamping assembly. A filler material is disposed between the repair device and the aluminum suction tube 1. The filler material is cold ramming paste, which is a cathode paste that can be applied at room temperature. It is a carbon filler material for masonry. The main components of cold ramming paste are aggregate, binder, and additives. It can be used to bond gaps smaller than 2mm. Cold ramming paste has a low cost and can fill some narrow cracks. Using cold ramming paste as a repair filler not only reduces the repair cost but also eliminates the need to detect the crack location, greatly increasing the repair efficiency.
[0033] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 8, the filler assembly includes a feed cylinder 2, with a through hole 21 inside the feed cylinder 2. An inclined plate 22 is arranged around the through hole 21 and inclined towards the through hole 21. When the cold rammed paste is poured into the feed cylinder 2, it can slide towards the through hole 21 through the inclined plate 22 to prevent the cold rammed paste from clogging inside the feed cylinder 2.
[0034] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3, 4, 5, and 8, the clamping assembly also includes a clamping cylinder 3 and several arc-shaped clamping plates 4. The clamping cylinder 3 is hollow inside, and the clamping plates 4 are disposed inside the clamping cylinder 3. Several support seats 32 are also disposed on the circumferential surface of the clamping cylinder 3. An opening 31 is provided at the upper end of the clamping cylinder 3, and the opening 31 is aligned and connected with the through hole 21. The cold-mixed paste falls into the clamping cylinder 3 through the through hole 21 and the opening 31. There is a gap between adjacent clamping plates 4. A connecting groove 41 is provided inside the clamping plate 4, and a connecting plate 5 is slidably disposed in the connecting groove 41. The connecting plate 5 is disposed at the gap between the clamping plates 4 to block the gap and prevent the cold-mixed paste from entering the clamping cylinder. Inside plate 4, above the connecting plate 5, there is a protrusion 51. Inside the clamping cylinder 3, there are several sliding grooves 311. The sliding grooves 311 are arranged along the direction of the opening 31. The top of the connecting plate 5 is in contact with the inside of the clamping cylinder 3, and the protrusion 51 extends into the sliding groove 311. The sliding groove 311 restricts the movement direction of the connecting plate 5, so that it can only move away from or towards the aluminum suction tube 1. The clamping plate 4 and the connecting plate 5 form a ring. When the distance between the clamping plates 4 becomes smaller, the two sides of the connecting plate 5 gradually abut against the connecting groove 41. When the clamping plates 4 come into contact with each other, they form a ring with a smaller diameter. At this time, the connecting plate 5 is inside the clamping plate 4.
[0035] like Figure 1 , 2As shown in Figures 3, 4, 5, and 8, one end of the clamping plate 4 is provided with a driving component I for driving the clamping plate 4 to move along the aluminum suction tube 1. The driving component I is a telescopic motor 6, which is connected inside the support base 32 and fixed by bolts for easy disassembly. When the telescopic motor 6 malfunctions, it can be removed from the support base 32 and replaced. The telescopic motor 6 drives the clamping plate 4 to move towards the center of the clamping cylinder 3. When the cold ramming paste is poured into the opening 31, it is located between the clamping plate 4 and the aluminum suction tube 1. During the movement of the clamping plate 4, the connecting plate 5 also slides and gradually approaches the aluminum suction tube 1. When the gap between the clamping plates 4 closes, the clamping plate 4 is close to the surface of the aluminum suction tube 1, pressing and adhering the cold ramming paste to the surface of the aluminum suction tube 1 to repair the surface of the aluminum suction tube 1.
[0036] like Figure 1 , 6 As shown in Figures 7 and 8, a rotating assembly for evenly distributing the filler is provided at the bottom end of the clamping cylinder 3. A connecting cylinder 9 is fixed to the bottom end of the clamping cylinder 3. The rotating assembly includes a rotating ring 8, a connecting rod 81, a connecting cylinder 9, a support block 83, and a connecting block 82. A driving component II, which is a rotary motor 84, is also provided inside the connecting cylinder 9. The rotary motor 84 is connected to the connecting block 82. The support block 83 is rotatably mounted on the connecting block 82, and the bottom of the aluminum suction tube 1 is supported on the support block 83. The bottom of the clamping cylinder 3 is through-hole, and the support block 83 is set inside the clamping cylinder 3. There is a certain distance between the support block 83 and the clamping cylinder 3, which is a channel 7. The channel 7 is set between the clamping plate 4 and the aluminum suction tube 1. The rotating ring 8 is rotatably set in the channel 7. The connecting block 82 is set below the rotating ring 8. The connecting block 82 and the rotating ring 8 are connected by several connecting rods 81. The rotating ring 8, the connecting rods 81 and the connecting block 82 are set inside the connecting cylinder 9. The connecting block 82 and the support block 83 are rotatably connected. The rotary motor 84 is used to drive the connecting block 82 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating ring 8 to rotate. When the cold paste is poured into the clamping cylinder 3, it falls onto the rotating ring 8. The rotary motor 84 rotates, causing the rotating ring 8 to rotate, and the cold paste on the rotating ring 8 is evenly dispersed onto the surface of the aluminum suction tube 1.
[0037] like Figure 1-8 As shown, the repair device is equipped with a support column 101. The support column 101 passes through the feed cylinder 2, the clamping cylinder 3 and the connecting cylinder 9, and is located at the center of the feed cylinder 2, the clamping cylinder 3 and the connecting cylinder 9. The bottom of the support column 101 is supported on the support block 83. After the aluminum suction tube 1 is removed, it can be directly inserted into the support column 101. The support column 101 supports the aluminum suction tube 1, and the repair work can be carried out without manual positioning. At the same time, it prevents the aluminum suction tube 1 from deforming during the squeezing process of the clamping plate 4.
[0038] Working principle: The aluminum suction tube 1, with its damaged end as the bottom, is inserted into the surface of the support column 101. Cold ramming paste is poured into the feed cylinder 2. The cold ramming paste falls into the clamping cylinder 3 through the inclined plate 22, through the through hole 21 and the opening 31, and is positioned between the clamping plate 4 and the aluminum suction tube 1. At this time, the drive motor 84 rotates, which drives the connecting block 82 to rotate. The connecting block 82 drives the connecting rod 81 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating ring 8 to rotate. The rotating ring 8 is also positioned between the clamping plate 4 and the aluminum suction tube 1. As the rotating ring 8 rotates, it will cause the aluminum suction tube 1 to fall and accumulate. The accumulated cold ramming paste is broken up and evenly distributed on the surface of the aluminum suction tube 1. The rotary motor 84 is turned off, and the telescopic motor 6 is driven to move, pushing the clamping plate 4 closer and closer to the aluminum suction tube 1. During the pushing process, the clamping plate 4 drives the connecting plate 5 to move synchronously, and the distance between the clamping plates 4 gradually decreases, squeezing the cold ramming paste onto the surface of the aluminum suction tube 1 and adhering it to the aluminum suction tube 1. After squeezing for a period of time, the telescopic motor 6 is driven to reverse, so that the clamping plate 4 returns to its original position and the aluminum suction tube 1 is pulled out from the support column 101, thus completing the repair work.
[0039] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
