Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of metal smelting, in particular to an anode copper plate shaping unit with two working stations capable of collaborative operation. Background Art

[0002] In the field of copper electrolysis, the quality of the anode copper plate is very important, and the quality of the anode copper plate's lug has a great impact on the verticality and conductivity of the anode copper plate. Because during the electrolysis process, the lug needs to be in direct contact with the electrode for conductivity, so an uneven bottom of the lug will directly affect production efficiency. Since the cast anode copper plate has a low flatness at the bottom of the lug, it cannot meet the production requirements of high-quality electrolytic copper. Therefore, the anode copper plate needs to be reshaped.

[0003] In the prior art, anode copper plate shaping is usually performed using a single-station shaping unit. During the shaping process, that is, during the flatness treatment of the bottom of the lug, a chain plate feeder is usually used to transport the copper plate. During the transportation process, the bottom of the copper plate lug is directly milled. When used, the above situation will cause metal debris generated by milling to fall or splash into the gap between the chains. Over time, it will cause serious wear of the chain. Secondly, when milling is performed directly on the chain, the copper plate is not fixed and is in a floating state. During the milling process, large vibrations will be generated, which can easily damage the tool and cannot guarantee the milling effect. Therefore, a double-station anode copper plate shaping unit that can work together is proposed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0044] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] See also Figure 1-7 The present invention discloses a double-station anode copper plate shaping unit capable of collaborative operation, comprising:

[0046] The shaping unit 1 is used to process the copper plate 02. The shaping unit 1 is provided with a conveying group 11 for conveying the copper plate 02. The conveying group 11 is provided with a carrying card block for carrying the copper plate 02. The middle part of the carrying card block is provided with a recess for placing the copper plate 02 and preventing it from shaking and deflecting during the conveying process.

[0047] Transverse conveying unit 01, the number of the transverse conveying unit 01 is two and they are respectively arranged on both sides of the input end of the shaping unit 1. The two groups of transverse conveying units 01 are used to convey the copper plate 02 into the shaping unit 1. It should be further supplemented that the transverse conveying unit 01 includes a conveying motor 011, a conveying chain 012 and a guard plate 013 for supporting the copper plate 02;

[0048] The two groups of horizontal conveying units 01 correspond to the two sets of anode copper plate casting systems and the anode copper plate storage area system respectively. The copper plates 02 transported by the two output vehicles corresponding to the two anode copper plate casting systems can be collected on a shaping machine to realize the collaborative operation of "two in, one shaping and one storage". At the same time, the two sets of horizontal conveying units 01 can realize two operating modes: independent shaping and collaborative shaping. The operation mode is flexible and the operation efficiency is improved. Finally, the docking with the double disc casting system adopts unmanned vehicles or transport trolleys. The whole process is automatically docked without manual operation.

[0049] The top of the copper plate 02 is provided with a hanging lug 021 and a lifting lug 022 corresponding to the conveying group 11;

[0050] Bottom milling device 2, which is arranged on the top wall of the shaping unit 1 and is used to lift the copper plate 02 and perform bottom milling on its hanging ears 021;

[0051] The bottom milling device 2 includes a power unit 21, a lifting seat 22, and a lifting mechanism 23 provided on the lifting seat 22 for lifting the lifting lug 022;

[0052] The bottom milling device 2 also includes a milling device 25 and a collection box 26 arranged on both sides of the shaping unit 1;

[0053] A transmission mechanism 24 is provided between the collection box 26 and the power unit 21 , and the transmission mechanism 24 is used to make the collection box 26 run synchronously with the lifting mechanism 23 , and extend the collection box 26 to below the hanging ear 021 for collecting the debris generated by milling.

[0054] In the above structure, the two groups of horizontal conveying units 01 can perform two operating modes: independent shaping and collaborative shaping, so as to adapt to different production processes. In the shaping unit 1, when the copper plate 02 is transported to the designated position by the conveying group 11, the power unit 21 runs, and drives the copper plate 02 to be lifted toward the lifting seat 22 through the lifting mechanism 23 until the two are in contact, thereby lifting and fixing the copper plate 02. During the above lifting process, due to the setting of the transmission mechanism 24, the collecting box 26 will synchronously extend to between the hanging ear 021 of the copper plate 02 and the conveying group 11 to cover it. Finally, the milling equipment 25 is started to mill and level the bottom of the hanging ear 021. The debris generated during the milling process will fall into the inside of the collecting box 26 to avoid the adverse effects caused by the splashing of debris.

[0055] In this application, it should be supplemented that a progressive unit 03 is provided between the two groups of the lateral conveying units 01, and the progressive unit 03 is used to receive the copper plates 02 on the two groups of the lateral conveying units 01 and send them into the shaping unit 1 or remove unqualified copper plates 02;

[0056] Among them, the progressive unit 03 includes a carrying platform, a transfer robot arm and a waste storage part (not shown in the figure). After receiving the copper plate 02, the carrying platform can screen it according to the results of the pressure thickness measurement of the copper plate 02. For qualified copper plates 02, the transfer robot arm will lift them and send them into the shaping unit 1, while unqualified copper plates 02 will be transported to the waste storage part corresponding to the shaping unit. The transfer robot arm is in a retracted state during the transfer process of the copper plate 02 on the carrying platform to avoid the transfer of the copper plate. It should be noted that the above-mentioned mechanisms are all commonly used technical means in the existing technology, so they are not explained and described in detail.

[0057] In order to carry out the lifting process of the copper plate 02, the output end of the power unit 21 is provided with a transmission rod 211 extending into the interior of the lifting seat 22;

[0058] The transmission rod 211 is provided with a transmission gear 212;

[0059] The transmission rod 211 is further provided with a transmission worm 213 .

[0060] Furthermore, the lifting mechanisms 23 are provided in two groups and are symmetrically distributed in the lifting seat 22;

[0061] The lifting mechanism 23 includes a rotating disk 231 hinged to the lifting seat 22, and the rotating disk 231 is provided with a lifting tooth 232 engaged with the transmission worm 213. The rotating disk 231 is also provided with a lifting hook 233. The transmission worm 213 is engaged with the lifting tooth 232 to drive the rotating disk 231 to rotate under the output of the power unit 21 and drive the copper plate 02 to rise and fall through the lifting hook 233.

[0062] Through the above-mentioned structural arrangement, when the equipment is in use, the operation of the power unit 21 drives the transmission worm 213 to rotate, and the transmission worm 213 engages with the lifting teeth 232 on the rotating disks 231 on both sides thereof, so that it can drive the lifting hooks 233 on the two rotating disks 231 to rotate. When the lifting hooks 233 rotate, the copper plate 02 can be driven to be lifted.

[0063] During the above-mentioned lifting process, a roller is provided at the end of the lifting hook 233 , and the roller is used to contact the lifting ear 022 and reduce the friction between the two during the process of lifting the copper plate 02 .

[0064] In the present application, a spray marking mechanism 27 is provided at the bottom of the lifting seat 22. The spray marking mechanism 27 is used to spray the copper plate 02 with the plate production date, furnace number, and mold position information to be marked on the top of the copper plate 02 during the shaping process of the copper plate 02 by the shaping unit 1, so as to realize the information traceability of the plate production. Subsequently, the furnace number and mold position corresponding to the abnormal anode plate can be judged according to the feedback information of the waste plate rack and the electrolytic cell surface, so as to timely adjust the refining furnace and the anode plate casting production process to improve the quality of the anode plate.

[0065] The spray marking mechanism 27 is used to contact the top of the copper plate 02 when the copper plate 02 is lifted, and to spray code the copper plate. It should be noted that the spray marking mechanism 27 is provided with a telescopic end and a trigger mechanism. The telescopic end is used to contact the copper plate 02 and cover the spraying surface to prevent the spraying process from being affected by the bottom milling process, and the trigger mechanism can control the equipment to start spraying after the copper plate 02 is fixed in the specified position.

[0066] It should be further explained that the transmission mechanism 24 includes a transmission horizontal rod 241 and a transmission vertical rod 242;

[0067] The transmission crossbar 241 is provided with a driven gear which is in transmission connection with the transmission gear 212;

[0068] A transmission bevel gear meshing with each other is provided between the transmission horizontal rod 241 and the transmission vertical rod 242;

[0069] The transmission vertical rod 242 is provided with a driven gear that is transmission-connected to the collection box 26 .

[0070] In the present application, the collection box 26 includes a collection chamber 261 and a driven extension plate 262 provided on the side of the collection chamber 261 , and also includes an adsorption tube 263 connected to the collection chamber 261 ;

[0071] The driven extension plate 262 is provided with driven teeth that mesh with the driven gear on the transmission vertical rod 242 .

[0072] In the above structure, the transmission mechanism 24 can transmit the output of the power unit 21 to the collection box 26, so that when the power unit 21 drives the copper plate 02 to rise, the collection box 26 is synchronously extended to under the copper plate 02. Conversely, when the power unit 21 runs in the reverse direction, the collection box 26 will synchronously retract and reset during the process of the copper plate 02 descending.

[0073] Finally, it should be added that the milling equipment 25 includes a telescopic unit fixedly connected to the side wall of the shaping unit 1, and the output end of the telescopic unit is provided with a milling tool 252 and a power motor 251 for driving it. The telescopic unit operates synchronously with the spray marking mechanism 27 to perform spraying and bottom milling after the equipment detects that the copper plate 02 is completely fixed.

[0074] This application also has a control unit, which is connected to the signals of various electrical components proposed in this application, and is used to coordinate the orderly operation of each component. Since the control unit is a conventional technical means used in this field, it is not described in detail in this application document.
