Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electrolytic aluminum, in particular to an aluminum oxide dumping device. Background Art

[0002] During the electrolysis of aluminum, a large amount of aluminum oxide is added into the electrolytic cell through mechanical equipment for electrolysis. During the electrolysis process, a certain amount of aluminum oxide needs to be continuously added to ensure the stability of the electrolysis in the electrolytic cell.

[0003] There are many feeding ports on the electrolytic cell. Due to the high temperature and strong magnetic field next to the electrolytic cell, the existing method of adding alumina is that workers first use electronic scales to quantify the alumina, then transport the quantified alumina to the electrolytic cell, and pour the alumina into the feeding port. Alumina is in powder form, and some of it will be lost during transportation. In addition, the transportation distance is long, which makes the electrolysis efficiency low. In addition, during the pouring process, workers need to get close to the electrolytic cell, which will cause harm to the workers' health after working for a long time. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments.

[0026] Example

[0027] like Figure 1-5 As shown, an alumina pouring device, the pouring device includes a pouring assembly and a connecting assembly, the pouring assembly includes a pouring box 1 and a support rod 2 arranged at one end of the pouring box 1, the connecting assembly includes a sensor 5, a support frame 4 and a connecting rod 3, the support rod 2 and the connecting rod 3 are arranged in parallel, the sensor 5 is arranged between the support rod 2 and the connecting rod 3, the sensor 5 is the prior art, and a parallel beam sensor 5 is adopted, the sensor 5 is respectively provided with a thread groove Ⅰ51 and a thread groove Ⅱ52, the thread groove Ⅰ51 and the thread groove Ⅱ52 are respectively arranged at both ends of the sensor 5, the support rod 2 is provided with a threaded hole Ⅰ21, the connecting rod 3 is provided with a threaded hole Ⅱ31, the threaded hole Ⅰ21 and the thread groove Ⅰ51 are aligned, the threaded hole Ⅱ31 and the thread groove Ⅱ52 are aligned, the threaded hole Ⅰ21 and A bolt Ⅰ511 is detachably provided in the threaded groove Ⅰ51, and a bolt Ⅱ521 is detachably provided in the threaded hole Ⅱ31 and the threaded groove Ⅱ52. The lower end of the sensor 5 is detachably connected to the support rod 2, and the upper end is detachably connected to the connecting rod 3. When there is alumina in the pouring box 1, the end of the support rod 2 continuously abuts against the sensor 5, so that the sensor 5 can undergo a certain degree of deformation. The detachable connection is not only convenient for installation, but also can be promptly removed and repaired and replaced when a part of the structure in the dumping device is damaged. The worker holds the end of the connecting rod 3, uses the pouring box 1 to shovel up the alumina and dumps it into the electrolytic cell. The length of the connecting rod 3 is relatively long, so that the worker can be kept at a certain distance from the high-temperature and strong-magnetic electrolytic cell to protect the worker's health.

[0028] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figure 5, the support frame 4 is arranged in a "U" shape, and the upper end of the support frame 4 is detachably connected to the connecting rod 3. The support rod 2 is inserted into the support frame 4. The support frame 4 can strengthen the connection between the support rod 2 and the connecting rod 3, and the lower end of the support rod 2 and the support frame 4 are in contact. When there is alumina on the pouring box 1, the support frame 4 can become the fulcrum of the support rod 2, which can not only limit the support rod 2 so that it can only rotate with the support frame 4 as the center, but also prevent the pouring box 1 from having too much alumina, which will cause the connection point between the support rod 2 and the sensor 5 to be damaged.

[0029] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figures 6 and 7, a feedback component is provided at the end of the connecting rod 3, and the feedback component includes a media box 7 and a detachable support 6 arranged at one end of the media box 7. The support 6 is connected to the connecting rod 3. A plurality of fixing holes Ⅰ32 are provided on the connecting rod 3, and a plurality of fixing holes Ⅱ61 are provided on the support 6. The support 6 is sleeved on the connecting rod 3, and the fixing holes Ⅰ32 and the fixing holes Ⅱ61 are aligned. Bolts Ⅲ62 are detachably provided in the fixing holes Ⅰ32 and the fixing holes Ⅱ61. The interior of the connecting rod 3 is hollow, and the sensor 5 is electrically connected to the media box 7. The connecting wire on the sensor 5 passes through the interior of the connecting rod 3 and is connected to the media box 7. The deformation of the sensor 5 will provide feedback to the media box 7. A screen 71 is provided on the surface of the media box 7. Every time the material box 1 scoops up alumina, the sensor 5 will be deformed. The worker can observe the weight change of the alumina on the screen 71. The dumping device brings the weighing and transportation together, which saves a lot of electrolysis time and increases the electrolysis efficiency.
