Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of metallurgical devices, in particular to an electrode clamping device. Background Art
[0002] In the industrial processes of iron and steel metallurgy, electrolysis, smelting, electroplating, etc., electrodes are key conductive consumable materials, and their length will gradually be consumed as the production process continues. In order to ensure the continuity and efficiency of the production process, it is necessary to regularly lengthen the shortened electrodes. However, in the process of electrode lengthening, due to the gravity of the electrode itself, improper operation or external factors (such as vibration, wind, etc.), the electrodes often tilt, shake or even slip. This not only affects the quality and efficiency of electrode lengthening, but may also pose a threat to equipment and personnel safety.
[0003] Traditional electrode splicing devices usually only focus on the clamping and splicing functions of the electrode, but ignore the balance and stability of the electrode during the splicing process. Therefore, during the splicing process, operators often need to spend a lot of time and energy to adjust the position of the electrode to ensure that it remains balanced and stable during the splicing process. This not only increases the labor intensity of the operators, but also reduces the efficiency and quality of the electrode splicing.
[0004] In the process of electrode extension, there are many devices for fixing the electrodes, and many of these devices are not reasonably designed. For example, the clamping devices for fixing the electrodes often clamp too tightly or too loosely. Both of these situations will cause damage to the electrodes and the devices. Therefore, the operator needs to continuously observe and operate during the clamping process, otherwise it is difficult to avoid damage to the electrodes, which also causes the process to be time-consuming and inefficient.

At the same time, a control mechanism 30 is provided, which is different from the existing common devices, most of which are not provided with control elements. The control mechanism 30 monitors and adjusts the clamping mechanism 20, avoids various fault problems, and reduces the probability of damage to the electrode on the device.
[0020] When implementing it, Figure 1As shown, the clamping mechanism 20 includes an oil cylinder 21, a fixed column 22, a first connecting plate 23, a second connecting plate 24, a first clamping plate 25, a second clamping plate 26 and a pressing contact plate 27; the oil cylinder 21 is arranged in the outer shell 10, and a first output end and a second output end are provided on the oil cylinder 21; there are two fixed columns 22, both of which are arranged in the outer shell 10, and the tops of the two fixed columns 22 are connected to the upper part of the outer shell 10, and the lower parts of the two fixed columns 22 are connected to the lower part of the outer shell 10; the first end of the first connecting plate 23 is rotatably connected to the first output end of the oil cylinder 21; the middle of the first connecting plate 23 is provided with a The first rotary hole is rotatably mounted on a fixed column 22; the first end of the second connecting plate 24 is rotatably connected to the second output end of the oil cylinder 21; a second rotary hole is provided in the middle of the second connecting plate 24, and the second rotary hole is rotatably mounted on another fixed column 22; the first clamping plate 25 is rotatably arranged at the second end of the first connecting plate 23; the first clamping plate 25 is provided with a first contact arc corresponding to the side shape of the electrode; the second clamping plate 26 is rotatably arranged at the second end of the second connecting plate 24; the second clamping plate 26 is provided with a second contact arc corresponding to the side shape of the electrode; the pressing contact plate 27 is two The two clamping contact plates 27 are respectively arranged on the first contact arc and the second contact arc; wherein, the oil cylinder 21 pushes the first output end and the second output end from the side of the outer shell 10 to the docking groove through hydraulic pressure so that the first connecting plate 23 drives the first clamping plate 25, and the second connecting plate 24 drives the second clamping plate 26 to respectively abut against the two ends of the electrode side. When the stroke of the oil cylinder 21 reaches a preset value, the first clamping plate 25 and the second clamping plate 26 clamp the electrode tightly; the two clamping contact plates 27 respectively abut against the two ends of the electrode side to protect the side of the electrode; the oil cylinder 21 pushes the first output end and the second output end to the outer ends on both sides respectively Pushing generates an outward thrust, and the first connecting plate 23 and the second connecting plate 24 connected to the first output end and the second output end are sleeved on the two fixed columns 22 in the middle. Therefore, the first connecting plate 23 and the second connecting plate 24 both rotate inward with a fixed column 22 as the center, and the first clamping plate 25 and the second clamping plate 26 are close to each other, and generate a clamping force toward the middle to clamp the electrode.

If a failure of the cylinder 21 is not discovered, then in the specific operation of the electrode, the cylinder 21 may continue to apply force outward through the first output end and the second output end, which will cause the problem of too long strokes of the first output end and the second output end, and may cause damage to both the cylinder 21 and the electrode; and in the case where the first displacement sensor 31 and the second displacement sensor 32 are set, when the strokes of the first output end and the second output end exceed the preset value, it can be known by the operator and corresponding measures can be taken at the same time.
