Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of aluminum electrolysis equipment, and particularly relates to a device for pressing a steel sleeve onto an anode rod of aluminum electrolysis. Background Art

[0002] The anode rod is a key component of the electrolytic cell in the aluminum electrolysis system, which plays a role in conducting electricity and is widely used in aluminum electrolysis production. In the production and manufacturing of the anode rod, operations such as chamfering, milling the surface, drilling holes, and pressing the steel sleeve are required for the aluminum rod blank. However, currently, the operation of pressing the steel sleeve is carried out manually by using a hammer to press the steel sleeve into the through hole of the anode rod. The efficiency of pressing the steel sleeve is low, the tightness of the steel sleeve fit is insufficient, the efficiency is low, and the labor cost is high. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] Aiming at the problems existing in the above background art, the utility model discloses a device for pressing a steel sleeve onto an anode rod of aluminum electrolysis, which can effectively reduce the labor, improve the processing efficiency, and increase the tightening force of the interference fit of the steel sleeve.

[0004] The utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

[0005] A device for pressing a steel sleeve onto an anode rod of aluminum electrolysis includes a single-arm crane and a steel sleeve pressing mechanism. The steel sleeve pressing mechanism includes a base. One side of the base is hinged with a gravity beam, and the other side is erected with a column. A sliding sleeve that can slide up and down along the column is sleeved on the column. One side of the sliding sleeve is provided with a lifting ring connected to the single-arm crane and a bearing plate for placing the gravity beam, and the lifting ring is located above the bearing plate. The other side of the sliding sleeve is provided with a steering handle. A limit post is also arranged on the base, and the limit post is located inside the column.

[0006] When the gravity beam rotates around the hinge point, it does not interfere with the column, and when the gravity beam falls, its free end just lands on the limit post.

[0007] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0008] Firstly, a steel sleeve hammer head is made according to the size of the steel sleeve to improve the tightening force of the fit between the anode rod and the steel sleeve. Through the cooperation of the steel sleeve hammer head and the steel sleeve pressing mechanism, the rapid installation of the steel sleeve is realized, the labor intensity is reduced, the efficiency of installing the steel sleeve on the anode rod is improved, and at the same time, the drawback of damaging the surface of the anode rod due to inaccurate hammer dropping during the manual pressing of the steel sleeve is avoided. Brief Description of the Drawings

[0009] Figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of the utility model.

[0011] In the figure, 1 - single-arm crane, 2 - sliding sleeve, 3 - gravity beam, 4 - base, 5 - anode guide rod, 6 - steel sleeve hammer head, 601 - hammer handle, 602 - hammer head, 7 - column, 8 - lifting ring, 9 - load-bearing plate, 10 - limit post, 11 - steering handle. Detailed implementation mode

[0012] The following further explains and illustrates the present utility model in conjunction with the attached drawings.

[0013] As Figure 1 shown, an aluminum electrolysis anode guide rod steel sleeve pressing device includes a single-arm crane 1 and a steel sleeve pressing mechanism. The steel sleeve pressing mechanism includes an L-shaped base 4. One side of the base 4 is hinged with a gravity beam 3, and on the other side, a column 7 is erected. A sliding sleeve 2 that can slide up and down along the column is sleeved on the column 7. On one side of the sliding sleeve 2, a lifting ring 8 connected to the single-arm crane 1 and a load-bearing plate 9 for placing the gravity beam 3 are provided, and the lifting ring 8 is located above the load-bearing plate 9. On the other side of the sliding sleeve 2, a steering handle 11 is provided; a limit post 10 is also provided on the base 4, and the limit post 10 is located inside the column 7.

[0014] In the above device structure, it should be noted that when the gravity beam 3 rotates around the hinge point, it will not interfere with the column 7, and when the gravity beam 3 falls, its free end just lands on the limit post 10.

[0015] As Figure 2 shown, the present utility model also provides a steel sleeve hammer head. The steel sleeve hammer head 6 includes a hammer handle 601 and a hammer head 602 integrally provided. A flange is provided at the connection between the hammer handle 601 and the hammer head 602. The diameter of the flange is larger than the diameters of both the hammer handle 601 and the hammer head 602. The diameter of the hammer handle 601 is smaller than the diameter of the hammer head 602. The diameter of the hammer head 602 is equivalent to the inner diameter of the steel sleeve to be installed, and the diameter of the flange is equivalent to the outer diameter of the steel sleeve to be installed, so as to ensure that the surface of the anode guide rod is not damaged during the process of hitting the steel sleeve.

[0016] During use, adjust the positions of the gravity beam 3 and the load-bearing plate 9 to ensure that one end of the gravity beam 3 is hinged to the base 4 through a pin shaft, and the other end is horizontally supported on the load-bearing plate 9 of the sliding sleeve 2. Then, place the steel sleeve into the through-hole of the anode rod 5. Subsequently, connect the lifting ring 8 to the hook of the single-arm crane 1. Then, press the operation handle of the single-arm crane 1 to lift the sliding sleeve 2 upward. When it is lifted to a certain height, the gravity beam 3 will automatically fall off the load-bearing plate 9 and then fall. During the falling process, it will hit the placed steel sleeve hammer head 6, and the steel sleeve hammer head 6 will press the steel sleeve into the through-hole on the anode rod 5 under the action of gravity, completing the action of pressing the steel sleeve. After the previous steel sleeve is pressed in, operate the operation handle of the single-arm crane 1 to make the sliding sleeve 2 fall along the column 7. During the falling process, rotate the sliding sleeve 2 through the steering handle 11 to make the load-bearing plate 9 pass over the gravity beam 3. After the sliding sleeve 2 falls to the lowest point, operate the operation handle of the single-arm crane 1 again, lift and rotate the sliding sleeve 2 to make the load-bearing plate 9 return below the gravity beam 3 again, lift the gravity beam 3 and place the steel sleeve and the steel sleeve hammer head 6, and repeat the above operations to complete the next action of pressing the steel sleeve. Since the steel sleeve hammer head 6 is customized according to the size of the steel sleeve, the tightness of the fit between the steel sleeve and the anode rod can be better achieved during the pressing process. The height of the limit post 10 is higher than the horizontal placement height of the anode rod, but does not exceed the height of the steel sleeve hammer head 6 after the steel sleeve is pressed in. On the one hand, it can prevent the gravity beam 3 from accidentally falling and hitting the operator's hand when the operator takes the steel sleeve hammer head 6, and on the other hand, it can protect the surface of the anode rod 5 and prevent the gravity beam 3 from accidentally falling and damaging the anode rod.
