[0039] In order to improve the stability of the pin shaft and improve the safety of operation, a multifunctional overhead crane is proposed in the embodiments of the present application. In some embodiments, the multifunctional overhead crane is used for electrolytic aluminum operation and integrates functions such as anode transportation, loading and unloading. The multifunctional overhead crane includes a car body and an anode clamp 100, the car body is used to move along the track, and the anode clamp 100 is used to clamp and fix the anode carbon block and complete the transportation of the anode as the car body moves.
[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The anode clamp 100 proposed in the embodiment of the present application includes a connecting seat 10, a pin shaft 20, a clamping structure 30, a limiting structure 50, a driving member 40 and a shielding member 60.
[0041] In one embodiment, the vehicle body is provided with a cantilever structure extending to the space below along the direction of gravity, and the connecting seat 10 is connected to the lower end of the cantilever structure. The connecting seat 10 may be integrally arranged with the cantilever structure, or the connecting seat 10 may be detachably connected to the cantilever structure, so as to facilitate installation and maintenance and replacement. Optionally, the connecting seat 10 includes a top plate 11, at least two side plates 13 arranged below the top plate 11, and a bottom plate 15, wherein the bottom plate 15 is located at one end of at least two side plates 13 away from the top plate 11. The top plate 11 is connected to the lower end of the cantilever structure, for example, the top plate 11 may be connected to the end of the cantilever structure by bolts, and the structure is simple and reliable. At least two side plates 13 are arranged at intervals to define the above-mentioned installation space 10a with the top plate 11 and the bottom plate 15. Optionally, the bottom plate 15, the side plates 13 and the top plate 11 may be connected by welding.
[0042] The pin 20 is used to bear the weight when the clamping structure 30 clamps the anode carbon block. In the embodiment of the present application, the pin 20 is inserted into the installation space 10a. Specifically, the connection seat 10 has mounting holes 13a on both sides that are connected to the installation space 10a and are arranged opposite to each other. The pin 20 is inserted into the two mounting holes 13a in sequence, and one end of the pin 20 is exposed on one side of the connection seat 10.
[0043] The clamping structure 30 can be movably arranged and used to clamp or remove the anode carbon block. In the embodiment of the present application, the clamping structure 30 includes at least two clamping members 31, one end of the at least two clamping members 31 is rotatably connected to the pin shaft 20, and the other end is spaced apart to form a clamping space 30a. Taking two clamping members 31 as an example, the two clamping members 31 can be close to or away from each other. When the two clamping members 31 are close to each other, they can be connected to the anode carbon block. When the two clamping members 31 are away from each other, the anode carbon block can be released. Optionally, the two clamping members 31 are provided with limiting protrusions to cooperate with the anode carbon block to improve the clamping stability.
[0044] The driving member 40 is connected to the connecting seat 10 and is arranged in the installation space 10a. The driving member 40 is connected to at least two clamping members 31 to drive the at least two clamping members 31 to move. Optionally, the driving member can be a cylinder, and the cylinder is a double-acting cylinder. The output end of the cylinder is connected to the side wall of the clamping member 31, so that when the cylinder works, the output end of the cylinder will push the clamping member 31 and make the end away from the shaft pin gradually away from the center of the installation space 10a, thereby increasing the clamping opening size of the at least two clamping members 31; of course, under the driving action of the cylinder or the action of gravity, the at least two clamping members 31 can also be gradually closed to clamp the two ends of the anode carbon block.
[0045] The end of the pin 20 exposed on one side of the connecting seat 10 is defined as the limit end 21. To prevent the pin 20 from moving, the limit structure 50 of the embodiment of the present application is connected to one side of the connecting seat 10 and connected to the limit end 21 to at least limit the movement of the pin 20 along its own axial direction.
[0046] However, since the anode clamp 100 has a high frequency of use and there may be collisions or large vibrations during the operation of the multifunctional overhead crane, the limiting structure 50 may fail, which is not conducive to the stability of the component and the safety of operation. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the shielding member 60 is connected to one side of the connecting seat 10 and shields the limiting structure 50 at least in the axial direction of the pin 20. Optionally, the shielding member 60 can be a plate structure connected to the connecting seat 10, and the shielding member 60 is arranged close to the limiting end 21 and at least covers the limiting structure 50, so that the limiting structure 50 can be prevented from failing due to collision. To ensure strength, the shielding member 60 can be made of metal materials such as steel.
[0047] The embodiment of the present application provides a shielding member 60 on one side of the connecting seat 10, and the shielding member 60 at least forms a shield for the limiting structure 50 along the axial direction of the pin shaft 20, thereby protecting the limiting structure 50. During operation, objects close to the limiting structure 50 will be blocked by the shielding member 60, so as to prevent the limiting structure 50 from being damaged and failing due to collision, thereby ensuring that the pin shaft 20 does not move and improving the stability of the pin shaft 20. In addition, the shielding member 60 can also prevent the limiting structure 50 from falling off or bursting into the surrounding environment when it fails to a certain extent, making the electrolysis operation safer and more reliable.
[0048] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the limiting end 21 is provided with a limiting groove 21a, and the limiting groove 21a is extended along the radial direction of the pin shaft 20. The limiting structure 50 includes a limiting plate 51 and a fastener 53. The limiting plate 51 has any shape and can be a rectangular plate with high strength. The limiting plate 51 is inserted in the limiting groove 21a, and the fastener 53 connects the limiting plate 51 and the connecting seat 10. Optionally, the fastener 53 can be a screw to connect the limiting plate 51 with the connecting seat 10, which has high connection reliability. In this embodiment, the limiting plate 51 is inserted and limited with the limiting groove 21a of the limiting end 21, and the movement of the pin shaft 20 along its own axial direction is constrained by the interaction between the limiting plate 51 and the groove wall of the limiting groove 21a. The structure is simple and effective, and the contact area between the limiting plate 51 and the connecting seat 10 is large and reliable. Of course, in other embodiments, the fastener 53 can also be connected to the limiting plate 51 and the connecting seat 10 in a clamping manner.
[0049] The limiting structure 50 is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, and it can also use other methods such as interference fit to limit the movement of the pin shaft 20. For the other end of the pin shaft 20, a limiting ring 23 is provided at the other end of the pin shaft 20. The limiting ring 23 is attached to the outer wall surface on the other side of the connecting seat 10 so that it can cooperate with the limiting structure 50 to limit the bidirectional movement of the pin shaft 20 along its own axial direction, thereby further improving stability.
[0050] In some embodiments, the clamping structure 30 is provided with two clamping members 31, and the anode clamp 100 is provided with two pin shafts 20 arranged side by side, each pin shaft 20 is provided with a limiting end 21, and a clamping member 31 is rotatably connected to a pin shaft 20. In this way, it is convenient to drive the two clamping members 31, and the load-bearing capacity of the anode clamp 100 is improved, and the stability of the pin shaft 20 and the clamping structure 30 is improved. Among them, the two limiting ends 21 can be arranged on the same side or both sides of the connecting seat 10. Taking the two limiting ends 21 arranged on the same side of the connecting seat 10 as an example, two limiting structures 50 can be set corresponding to the two limiting ends 21, or a limiting structure 50 can be set to limit the two limiting ends 21 at the same time, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this.
[0051] Among them, for the two limiting structures 50, two shielding members 60 can be respectively provided to correspond to the two limiting structures 50 one by one, so as to provide targeted protection. Alternatively, one shielding member 60 can be used to shield the two limiting structures 50, and the shielding member 60 can be opened to inspect and maintain the two limiting structures 50 at the same time, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0052] like Figure 3 As shown, specifically in one embodiment, the anode clamp 100 further includes a guide plate 70, which is rotatably mounted on a side of the connection seat 10 away from the limiting structure 50, and the lower end portion of the guide plate 70 extends into the clamping space 30a to assist in clamping and fixing the anode. In this embodiment of the present application, the limiting structure 50 is disposed on a side of the connection seat 10 away from the guide plate 70, which can prevent the limiting structure 50 from being blocked by the guide plate 70, and facilitate observation of the limiting structure 50. That is, in this embodiment, the working state of the limiting structure 50 can be observed through the shielding member 60 or by removing the shielding member 60, which is convenient for inspection, maintenance and replacement, ensuring safety while improving work efficiency.
[0053] Please refer to Figure 4 In one embodiment, the shielding member 60 may be a cover-shaped structure. The shielding member 60 is covered on the side surface of the connecting seat 10 and defines a shielding cavity 60a with the connecting seat 10, and at least the limiting structure 50 is located in the shielding cavity 60a. The cover-shaped shielding member 60 can not only protect the limiting structure 50 more comprehensively, but also prevent the limiting structure 50 from falling off or bursting out of the shielding cavity 60a, thereby improving safety and facilitating recycling.
[0054] Furthermore, the limiting structure 50 and the limiting end 21 are both disposed in the shielding cavity 60 a , and the shielding member 60 can more comprehensively protect the limiting structure 50 and the limiting end 21 .
[0055] For ease of disassembly and maintenance, in some embodiments, the shielding member 60 is detachably connected to the connection base 10. Optionally, the shielding member 60 can be connected to the connection base 10 by a buckle, or the shielding member 60 can also be connected to the connection base 10 by a screw, which has higher structural stability.
[0056] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, one end of the shielding member 60 can be rotatably connected to the connection seat 10 via a rotating shaft 61, and the end of the shielding member 60 away from the rotating shaft 61 can be detachably connected to the connection seat 10. This embodiment of the present application can not only improve the connection tightness between the shielding member 60 and the connection seat 10, but also open the shielding member 60 when one end is disassembled, complete the maintenance work of the limiting structure 50, and further improve the work efficiency.
[0057] Optionally, the shielding member 60 can rotate around an axis perpendicular to the pin shaft 20. One end of the shielding member 60 is connected to the connecting seat 10 through a rotating shaft 61, and the rotating shaft 61 is extended along an axis parallel to the side of the connecting seat 10. By rotating the shielding member 60 around the rotating shaft 61, the shielding member 60 can be easily opened to expose the limiting structure 50. Furthermore, a connecting hole is provided at one end of the shielding member 60 away from the rotating shaft 61, and a screw is passed through the connecting hole and connected to the connecting seat 10. The screw connection is not only convenient for disassembly and assembly, but also has a high connection strength, making the shielding member 60 more stable. Of course, the embodiment of the present application does not limit the fixed connection method and position of the shielding member 60 and the connecting seat 10, and multiple screws can also be provided on the circumference of the shielding member 60 to further improve the stability of the shielding member 60.
[0058] The above is an explanation of the specific implementation of the anode clamp 100 of the present application. It can be understood that since the multifunctional overhead crane of the present application adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here one by one.
