Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of deformation monitoring of concrete beams, in particular to a device capable of controlling the distance between the anode and the cathode. Background Technique
[0002] Electrochemical synthesis is an important technology widely used in the fields of electroplating, electrolysis, battery manufacturing, etc. Its core lies in realizing electrochemical reactions through an electrolysis system. However, traditional electrolysis systems face many technical challenges in laboratory test applications, which directly affect the efficiency of electrochemical reactions, the quality of products, and the energy consumption of the system.
[0003] Uneven current density distribution: During the electrolysis process, the distance between the cathode and the anode is crucial for the distribution of current density. In traditional electrolysis systems, due to the inability to precisely control the distance between the electrodes, the current density often shows an uneven distribution. This can lead to over-reaction in some areas and under-reaction in other areas, thus affecting the overall effect of the electrochemical reaction and the consistency of the product.
[0004] Consumption and lifespan of electrode materials: Due to problems such as uneven current distribution, the consumption rate of electrode materials is uneven, resulting in local over-consumption of the electrodes. This not only shortens the service life of the electrodes but also increases the maintenance and replacement costs of the system.
[0005] Low energy efficiency: Traditional electrolysis systems have low energy utilization due to the above problems, increasing the operating costs of the electrochemical process. In addition, uneven current density may also lead to side reactions, further reducing the energy efficiency and product purity.
[0006] Limitations of fixed electrode distance: In traditional electrolysis systems, the distance between the cathode and the anode is usually fixed or difficult to precisely adjust. This design limits the flexibility of the electrolysis system and cannot be optimized according to the requirements of different electrochemical reactions, restricting the application scope of the system.
[0007] To address these problems, a new type of electrolysis system design is urgently needed, which can achieve precise controllability of the distance between the electrodes while ensuring uniform current distribution and efficient gas removal, thereby improving the efficiency of electrochemical reactions and the overall performance of the system.

[0029] As follows, the embodiments will be further described with reference to the drawings.
[0030] As Figure 1 shown, as a preferred Embodiment 1, a device capable of controlling the distance between the anode and cathode includes a square hollow installation frame 1. A handle 4 is hingedly installed at the middle position on the outer side of the top of the installation frame 1. First round holes 2 and second round holes 6 are respectively provided on both sides of the top of the installation frame 1, and the first round holes 2 and the second round holes 6 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the handle 4. A sliding groove 11 is provided on the inner side of the bottom of the installation frame 1. Two moving limit mechanisms are slidably provided in the sliding groove 11, and the two moving limit mechanisms correspond to the first round holes 2 and the second round holes 6 one by one. The moving limit mechanism is used to install the conductive sample and form the anode and cathode by connecting with the corresponding wires. By controlling the relative distance between the two moving limit mechanisms, the distance between the two conductive samples can be controlled, thus facilitating the control of the electrode distance.
[0031] Each moving limit mechanism includes a limit ring 7 embedded in the sliding groove 11. The limit ring 7 forms a sliding fit with the sliding groove 11. Each limit ring 7 is provided with a sliding handle 9, and the limit ring 7 forms a fixed fit with the corresponding sliding handle 9. A sliding hole 8 is provided on one side of the installation frame 1 of the sliding groove 11. The sliding handle 9 is embedded and penetrates through the sliding hole 8, and the sliding handle 9 forms a sliding fit with the sliding hole 8. The limit ring 7 is hollow to form a limit groove 10. Moving the sliding handle 9 along the sliding hole 8 can move the limit ring 7. The limit groove 10 of the limit ring 7 is used to form a limit fit with the conductive sample, so as to form a linkage fit with the conductive sample as an electrode.
[0032] The axis of the limit ring 7 is in the vertical direction, and the bottom of the limit ring 7 is received in the sliding groove 11. It is convenient to install the conductive sample.
[0033] The sliding handle 9 is arranged along the radial direction of the limit ring 7, which is convenient for movement.
[0034] The sliding hole 8 is a long hole, and the extending direction of the sliding hole 8 is the same as the sliding direction of the limit ring 7, which is convenient for movement.
[0035] The sliding hole 8 is provided with scales, and the scales are arranged along the extending direction of the sliding hole 8, which is convenient for movement.
[0036] As Figure 2 shown, as a preferred Embodiment 2, a first wire 3 is movably embedded in the first round hole 2, and the first wire 3 forms a conductive fit with a conductive sample, and the conductive sample connected to the first wire 3 is embedded in a corresponding limit groove 10;
[0037] A second wire 5 is movably embedded in the second round hole 6, and the second wire 5 forms a conductive fit with another conductive sample, and the other conductive sample connected to the second wire 5 is embedded in another corresponding limit groove 10. Moving the sliding handle 9 along the sliding hole 8 can move the limit ring 7, and by changing the position of the corresponding conductive samples through the limit ring 7, the distance between the electrodes can be changed.
[0038] Preferably, the first wire 3 and the second wire 5 have the same size, the first round hole 2 and the second round hole 6 have the same size, and the size of the second round hole 6 is larger than the size of the second wire 5. It is convenient for the wires to be arranged obliquely in the corresponding round holes and convenient for adjusting the distance between the ends of the wires.
[0039] The first wire 3 and the second wire 5 are respectively connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the power supply. To ensure the electrolysis process, if the first wire 3 is connected to the positive electrode of the power supply, the conductive sample connected to the first wire 3 automatically serves as the electrolysis anode. If the second wire 5 is connected to the negative electrode of the power supply, the conductive sample connected to the second wire 5 automatically serves as the electrolysis cathode. By controlling the distance between the conductive samples, the distance between the anode and the cathode can be controlled.
[0040] The installation frame 1, the handle 4 and the moving limit mechanism are all made of insulating materials, so as to avoid affecting the electrolysis process after accidental contact.
[0041] The working principle of the utility model:
[0042] Step 1: First, place the corresponding conductive sample in the limit groove 10 of the corresponding moving limit mechanism, and insert the first wire 3 and the second wire 5 into the two first round holes 2 and the second round hole 6 respectively, so that the first wire 3 and the second wire 5 are respectively connected with the two conductive samples to form a conductive fit. Among them: at the initial position, the two limit rings 7 can be moved in the opposite direction and closely adhere to the ends of the sliding groove 11 to keep the electrodes away; then move the sliding handle 9 along the scale on the sliding hole 8 according to the experimental requirements to adjust the conductive sample to a suitable position;
[0043] Step 2: Adjust the distance between the conductive samples, and then gently place the whole device into a beaker filled with electrolyte solution, and wait for the electrolyte solution to flow into the inside of the installation frame 1 to ensure that the solution in the beaker is basically in a non-flowing state;
[0044] Step 3: After checking that the whole system is correct and confirming the positions and distances of the conductive samples, connect the external power supply to the first wire 3 and the second wire 5 through wires, so that the conductive samples automatically form an anode and a cathode, and then start the power supply to make the device have both positive and negative electrodes;
[0045] Step 4: When the positive and negative electrodes appear in the installation frame 1, the charged particles in the frame start to move. When the electrolysis reaches equilibrium, the current passing through the solution reaches equilibrium, that is, the value of the external ammeter is stable. At this time, the sliding handle 9 can be moved by an external insulating tool, so as to increase the distance between the two positive and negative electrodes, increase the electrolyzable electrolyte, and the current will also increase accordingly.
