DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a unloading system for transporting residual anode plates after scraping, comprising an unloading device 1, a conveying device 2 and a detaching hook assembly 3, the conveying device 2 is arranged at the feed end of the unloading device 1, the conveying device 2 comprises a conveying rail 21, a transmission structure 22 for driving the conveying rail 21 and a plurality of hooks 23, the transmission structure 22 is connected to the conveying rail 21, and a plurality of hooks 23 are arranged at intervals on the conveying rail 21, and the side of the conveying rail 21 close to the unloading device 1 forms an angle with the unloading device 1, and the detaching hook assembly 3 is located above the feed end of the unloading device 1; when the hook 23 moves to the feed end, the detaching hook assembly 3 contacts the hook 23, and as the hook 23 moves, the hook 23 is driven to flip, so that the material falls off the hook 23 and falls into the unloading device 1.

[0023] Based on the above structure, the material of this embodiment is a waste anode plate. When the hook 23 carries the waste anode plate and moves to the feed end of the unloading device 1, the unhooking assembly 3 will contact the hook 23. Since the conveying track 21 forms a certain angle with the side close to the unloading device 1, when the hook 23 continues to move along the conveying track 21, the unhooking assembly 3 will push the hook 23 to flip a certain angle, so that the waste anode plate hanging on it will naturally fall off due to gravity and enter the unloading device 1, and then continue to be transported to the next processing link. This realizes the automatic transfer of the waste anode plate from the conveying device 2 to the unloading device 1, speeds up the processing of the waste anode plates, and eliminates the need for manual handling, reducing the burden on workers and reducing occupational injuries caused by heavy physical labor.

[0024] Furthermore, there are two unhooking components 3 , and the two unhooking components 3 are arranged on two sides of the blanking device 1 opposite to each other.

[0025] When the hook 23 carries the material and moves to the feed end of the unloading device 1, the two oppositely arranged unhooking components 3 can act on the two sides of the hook 23 at the same time, thereby more effectively pushing the hook 23 to flip, ensuring that the material can smoothly detach from the hook 23 and fall into the unloading device 1. This dual force can prevent the material from being deflected or stuck during the falling process.

[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, the unhooking assembly 3 includes a first driving member 31, a mounting structure 32 and a blocking rod 33. The first driving member 31 is used to provide power and is mounted on the mounting structure 32. One end of the blocking rod 33 passes through the mounting structure 32 and is connected to the output shaft of the first driving member 31 to drive the telescopic movement through the first driving member 31.

[0027] When the hook 23, carrying the remaining anode plates, moves to the feed end of the unloading device 1, the first drive member 31 is activated, driving the attached stopper 33 to extend and retract. One end of the stopper 33 extends and contacts the hook 23. As the stopper 33 continues to extend, it exerts a tilting force on the hook 23, causing it to flip, allowing the remaining anode plates to fall off the hook 23 and onto the unloading device 1. In this embodiment, the first drive member 31 can be a motor or a cylinder, for example.

[0028] Furthermore, the mounting structure 32 includes a fixing seat 321 and a guide block 322. The fixing seat 321 is used to fix the entire unhooking assembly 3 at a predetermined position. The guide block 322 is installed on the fixing seat 321. The first driving member 31 is connected to the guide block 322, and one end of the blocking rod 33 passes through the fixing seat 321 and the guide block 322 in sequence and is connected to the output shaft of the first driving member 31, so as to provide guidance for the blocking rod 33 through the guide block 322, ensuring that the blocking rod 33 can move linearly along a predetermined path, thereby ensuring the position accuracy of the blocking rod 33 when it contacts the hook 23.

[0029] Furthermore, the unhooking assembly 3 includes a sensor for detecting whether the material has reached the feed end. This ensures that the unhooking process is initiated only when the remaining anode plate has reached the correct position, triggering the extension of the blocking rod 33 to achieve unhooking of the material. This ensures that each unhooking is performed when the material is in the optimal position, helping to improve the automation and safety of the system and ensuring that each operation step is executed as planned.

[0030] The sensors in this embodiment can be of various types, such as photoelectric sensors, ultrasonic sensors, or infrared sensors. These sensors can be installed near the feed end. When the material reaches a specified position, the sensors are triggered and send a signal to the control system. The control system determines when to initiate the extension of the blocking rod 33 based on the sensor feedback.

[0031] Furthermore, the unloading device 1 includes a support frame 11, a sprocket 12, a first transmission chain 13 and a second driving member 14. The support frame 11 is used to fix and support other components, such as the second driving member 14, the sprocket 12 and the first transmission chain 13 are installed on the support frame 11, the second driving member 14 is connected to the sprocket 12, and the sprocket 12 is engaged with the first transmission chain 13.

[0032] After the second driving member 14 of this embodiment is started, it is connected to the sprocket 12 through its output shaft, driving the sprocket 12 to rotate. The rotation of the sprocket 12 drives the first transmission chain 13 engaged with it to move, thereby driving the components connected to the chain (such as the remaining anode plate) to move, so that it is transferred from the conveying device 2 to the specified position.

[0033] Furthermore, the transmission structure 22 includes a driving shaft wheel assembly 221, multiple driven shaft wheel assemblies 222 and a third driving member. The driving shaft wheel assembly 221 and the multiple driven shaft wheel assemblies 222 are arranged at intervals along the running track of the material. The transmission track 21 is mounted on the driving shaft wheel assembly 221 and the driven shaft wheel assembly 222. The third driving member is connected to the driving shaft wheel assembly 221 to drive the material to move in a counterclockwise direction.

[0034] When the third drive member of this embodiment is activated, its output shaft connects to the driving shaft wheel assembly 221, driving the driving shaft wheel assembly 221 to rotate. The rotation of the driving shaft wheel assembly 221 drives the conveyor track 21 in a counterclockwise direction. A plurality of hooks 23 are spaced apart on the conveyor track 21. These hooks 23 move with the movement of the conveyor track 21, thereby moving the remaining anode plates attached to the hooks 23. The driven shaft wheel assembly 222 is distributed along the path of the conveyor track 21, providing support and guidance, ensuring that the conveyor track 21 does not deviate or wobble during operation, thus ensuring smooth material transfer.

[0035] Furthermore, the conveying track 21 includes two conveyor belts 211 arranged at intervals. In this embodiment, the two conveyor belts 211 carry the materials together, which can disperse the weight and enable the system to withstand heavier loads. At the same time, the two conveyor belts 211 can provide a better support surface to prevent the materials from tipping over or sliding during the transmission process.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the hook 23 includes a connecting portion 231, a connecting shaft 232 and a hook portion 233. The two ends of the connecting shaft 232 are respectively connected to the connecting portions 231. The connecting portion 231 is connected to the conveying track 21, ensuring that the hook 23 can be firmly installed on the conveying track 21. The hook portion 233 is connected to the connecting shaft 232 to ensure that the remaining anode plate can be safely hung thereon.

[0037] In practice, hook 23 is fixed to conveyor track 21 via its connecting portion 231. When conveyor track 21 begins to operate, hook 23 moves along with the track. The material is hooked on hook 233. The shape of hook 233 ensures that the remaining anode plates are securely suspended on hook 23 and transported to the designated location as conveyor track 21 moves. This reduces the need for manual handling and improves production efficiency.

[0038] Furthermore, it also includes a mounting frame, and the unhooking component 3 and the transmission structure 22 are installed on the mounting frame to ensure that these components will not be displaced or shaken during operation, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the system. In addition, it ensures that the relative position between the unhooking component 3 and the transmission structure 22 is accurate, ensuring that the residual anode plate can accurately reach the unhooking hook 23 position during the transmission process and fall off smoothly.

[0039] In summary, the embodiment of the present invention provides a feeding system, in which when the hook 23 carries the residual anode plate and moves to the feed end of the feeding device 1, the hook-off assembly 3 will contact the hook 23. Since the conveying track 21 forms a certain angle with the side of the feeding device 1 close to it, when the hook 23 continues to move along the conveying track 21, the hook-off assembly 3 will push the hook 23 to flip a certain angle, so that the residual anode plate hanging on it will naturally fall off due to gravity and enter the feeding device 1, and then continue to be transported to the next processing link, thereby realizing the automatic transfer of the residual anode plate from the conveying device 2 to the feeding device 1, speeding up the processing of the residual anode plate, and at the same time eliminating the need for manual handling, reducing the burden on workers and reducing occupational injuries caused by heavy physical labor.

[0040] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and replacements can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and replacements should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
