There are two connecting blocks 3, which are arranged on both sides of the sacrificial anode body 2. A protective box 1 is arranged on the outside of the sacrificial anode body 2. A fixing box 4 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the protective box 1. There are four fixing boxes 4, which are respectively arranged at the four corners of the protective box 1. A movable mechanism 5 is arranged inside the fixing box 4. A baffle 6 is arranged above the connecting block 3. There are four baffles 6 and movable mechanisms 5 respectively. An inclined surface is arranged on the baffle 6. The movable mechanism 5 comprises a sliding box 501. The inner wall of the sliding box 501 is slidably connected to the baffle 6. A first spring 502 is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle 6. The end of the first spring 502 away from the baffle 6 is fixedly connected to the sliding box 501. The first spring 502 gives The baffle plate 6 has an elastic force that moves outward so that it can always block the connecting block 3. The upper surface of the sliding box 501 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 11. The side of the sliding box 501 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 503. The outer surface of the sliding block 503 is slidably connected to the vertical rod 504. One side of the vertical rod 504 is fixedly connected to the protective box 1. The sliding block 503 and the vertical rod 504 are used to limit one end of the sliding box 501 to prevent it from tilting. A sliding ring 505 is fixedly connected to one end of the sliding box 501. The inner wall of the sliding ring 505 is slidably connected to the fixing rod 506. The lower surface of the fixing rod 506 is fixedly connected to the fixing box 4. The other end of the sliding box 501 is limited by the sliding ring 505 and the fixing rod 506 to prevent it from tilting. The two limits make the sliding box 501 only slide up and down, thereby increasing the stability of the sliding box 501.

[0024] The outer surface of the baffle 6 is slidably connected to the protective box 1. A rectangular groove is provided on the protective box 1 to allow the baffle 6 to move up and down. A supporting mechanism 7 is provided below the connecting block 3. The supporting mechanism 7 includes a top plate 701. The upper surface of the top plate 701 is in contact with the connecting block 3. The lower surface of the top plate 701 is fixedly connected to a second spring 702.

At the same time, the connecting block 3 is supported by the second spring 702 to increase its stability.

[0025] An elastic mechanism 8 is arranged below the movable mechanism 5, and two elastic mechanisms 8 are arranged under each movable mechanism 5. The elastic mechanism 8 includes a fixed cylinder 801, and the lower surface of the fixed cylinder 801 is fixedly connected to the fixed box 4. A support rod 802 is arranged above the fixed cylinder 801, and the upper surface of the support rod 802 is fixedly connected to the sliding box 501. A third spring 803 is arranged inside the fixed cylinder 801, and the inner side of the third spring 803 is slidably connected to the support rod 802. One end of the third spring 803 is fixedly connected to the sliding box 501, and the other end of the third spring 803 is fixedly connected to the fixed box 4.

The elastic force of the third spring 803 is stronger than that of the first spring 502. When the connecting block 3 squeezes the baffle 6, the baffle 6 will move toward the inside of the sliding box 501, and the third spring 803 also allows the sliding box 501 to move up and down.

[0026] The upper part of the protective box 1 is slidably connected with a cover plate 9, and the outer surface of the protective box 1 is fixedly connected with a limiting rod 13. The outer surface of the limiting rod 13 is slidably connected to the cover plate 9, and the limiting rod 13 limits the cover plate 9 to prevent the cover plate 9 from moving upward, and at the same time increases the sealing of the cover plate 9 and the protective box 1. The inner wall of the cover plate 9 is threadedly connected with a threaded rod 10. There are four threaded rods 10. The lower surface of the threaded rod 10 is in contact with the pressure plate 11. The threaded rod 10 can be inserted into the inside of the pressure plate 11. Through the pressure plate 11, the movable mechanism 5 and the baffle 6 can be driven to move downward. At the same time, the pressure plate 11 limits the threaded rod 10 to prevent it from shifting and tilting, thereby preventing the cover plate 9 from moving horizontally. The lower surface of the protective box 1 is fixedly connected with a sealing sleeve 12, and the sealing sleeve 12 can increase the sealing effect between the protective box 1 and the metal structure.

[0027] It should be noted that in actual use of the device, the protective box 1 is first fixed to the outer surface of the metal structure by bolts, and the bolts are tightened to move the protective box 1 closer to the metal structure, thereby squeezing the sealing sleeve 12 to increase the sealing effect between the protective box 1 and the metal structure, prevent external dust or liquid from entering, and protect the internal sacrificial anode body 2.

[0028] When the sacrificial anode body 2 needs to be replaced, firstly, the four threaded rods 10 are screwed to pull the threaded rods 10 out from the cover plate 9, the cover plate 9 is slid, and the cover plate 9 is slid off the protection box 1, and then the baffle 6 is pulled to move the baffle 6 toward the inside of the sliding box 501, so that the connection block 3 is no longer restricted, and the sacrificial anode body 2 can be directly taken out, so as to achieve the effect of easy removal, and the new sacrificial anode body 2 is placed in the inside of the protection box 1, so that the connection block 3 squeezes the baffle 6 to move the baffle 6 toward the inside of the sliding box 501, and the first spring 502 is squeezed, and when the connecting block 3 completely passes over the baffle 6, the first spring 502 rebounds and drives the baffle 6 to reset. The baffle 6 limits the connecting block 3, thereby fixing the connecting block 3 and the sacrificial anode body 2 to the inside of the protective box 1, and then installing the cover plate 9, and then inserting the four threaded rods 10, so that the lower ends of the threaded rods 10 are inserted into the inside of the pressure plate 11, and the cover plate 9 is prevented from moving upward by the limit rod 13, and the cover plate 9 is prevented from sliding left and right by the pressure plate 11 and the threaded rods 10, thereby fixing the cover plate 9, achieving the effect of easy installation.

[0029] When the threaded rod 10 is screwed downward, the threaded rod 10 will press the pressure plate 11 downward, and the pressure plate 11 drives the baffle 6 to press the connection block 3 through the sliding box 501, so that the sacrificial anode body 2 moves downward, so that it is in close contact with the metal structure, increasing the applicability effect. Through the movement amplitude of the baffle 6, it can be applicable to sacrificial anode bodies 2 of different thicknesses, achieving the effect of increasing use. The elastic mechanism 8 provides the sliding box 501 with an upward elastic force, so that when the connection block 3 presses the baffle 6, the baffle 6 is prevented from moving downward, so that the baffle 6 is retracted into the sliding box 501. The lower part of the connection block 3 is supported by the supporting mechanism 7 to increase the stability of the connection block 3. By arranging the sealing sleeve 12 and the cover plate 9, the sacrificial anode body 2 is sealed to prevent external dust or liquid from entering, and to prevent the sacrificial anode body 2 from being corroded by the outside, and the sacrificial anode body 2 is only allowed to be used by contacting with the metal structure, thereby increasing the service life of the sacrificial anode body 2.
