Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of a crane shell breaking mechanism, in particular to a crane shell breaking mechanism for aluminum electrolysis. Background Art

[0002] A large number of electrolytic cells are used in the electrolytic aluminum industry. During operation, the electrolytic cells need to cover the anode and aluminum liquid with a certain thickness of electrolyte, fluoride salt and other powder materials to keep the aluminum liquid warm. Under the action of high temperature and electrolysis, these powder materials will continue to connect tightly and finally form a dense layer with a thickness of about 150mm, commonly known as the electrolyte shell. Due to the existence of this electrolyte shell, adding alumina to the electrolytic cell, replacing anode carbon blocks, and removing anode carbon slag from the electrolytic cell are greatly inconvenient. Usually, before doing these tasks, it is necessary to use a special shelling cylinder installed in the electrolytic cell or a shelling machine on the electrolytic multifunctional overhead crane to break the shell surface of the electrolytic cell before carrying out subsequent work. During the process of replacing the anode and opening the center seam of the overhead crane, the tilting cylinder rod is easy to scratch the horizontal cover of the electrolytic cell, causing scratches on the cylinder rod, damaging the smoothness of the cylinder rod, and the cylinder rod oil seal is pulled, causing the cylinder to leak oil and slide down, affecting the normal use of the shelling machine, and posing a safety hazard. In addition, the frequent replacement of the tilting cylinder of the shelling machine will increase the maintenance cost and the workload of the maintenance workers. For this reason, we proposed a shelling mechanism for an aluminum electrolytic overhead crane. Utility Model Content

It is movably connected to the lower connecting rod 9, and the lower connecting rod 9 is movably connected to the frame 1 at one end away from the support 7. When the hydraulic cylinder 3 is working, the hydraulic cylinder 3 pushes the U-shaped connecting seat 6 and the upper connecting rod 5 to rotate around the pin shaft, and the lower connecting rod 9 rotates around the lower end of the frame 1.
