Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of copper crucibles, in particular to a copper crucible turning mechanism. Background Art

[0002] A copper crucible is a container used to melt, heat or store copper and other metals. It is usually made of high-temperature resistant materials such as pure copper, graphite or other refractory materials. Copper crucibles play an important role in metal smelting, casting, alloy preparation and other high-temperature processes.

[0003] A copper crucible flipping mechanism is a mechanical device used to flip or dump a copper crucible. It is typically used in metal smelting, casting, or other industrial processes that require handling high-temperature copper liquid. This mechanism needs to be able to operate safely and precisely to avoid splashing of the high-temperature metal liquid or other safety risks.

[0004] At present, the existing copper crucible flipping mechanism cannot achieve efficient and safe control of the copper crucible flipping process, which reduces the stability and accuracy of the flipping, resulting in increased operational difficulty and reduced production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art that the copper crucible flipping process cannot be efficiently and safely controlled, the stability and accuracy of the flipping are reduced, the operation difficulty is increased and the production efficiency is reduced, and a copper crucible flipping mechanism is proposed.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A copper crucible turning mechanism, comprising:

[0008] A fixing frame, wherein a connecting seat is fixedly provided on one side of the top of the fixing frame, a bracket is hingedly provided on the top of the connecting seat, and a crossbeam is fixedly provided on the top of the fixing frame;

[0009] A flip assembly is provided on the fixing frame and the bracket and is used to push the bracket to flip;

[0010] The clamping mechanism is arranged on the bracket and is used for clamping the copper crucible.

[0011] In a possible design, the flip assembly includes two mounting frames symmetrically fixed on the top of the fixing frame, a double-sided seat is fixed on the top of the crossbeam, the two mounting frames 1 are respectively rotatably provided with rotating rods on both sides of the double-sided seat, and hydraulic cylinders are fixedly provided in the gaps between the two rotating rods and the double-sided seat, and two mounting frames 2 are symmetrically fixed on the bottom of the bracket, and the output ends of the two hydraulic cylinders are respectively hinged to the two mounting frames 2.

[0012] In one possible design, the clamping mechanism includes a plurality of evenly distributed fixing seats fixedly provided on the top of the bracket, a connecting frame 1 is hingedly provided on both sides of the top of the fixing seat, a clamping frame is fixedly provided on the top of the two connecting frames 1, a connecting frame 2 is fixedly provided on both sides of the fixing seat, an electric push rod is hingedly provided on the inner sides of the two connecting frames 2, and the output ends of the two electric push rods are respectively hinged to the rear sides of the two clamping frames.

[0013] In a possible design, two supporting legs are symmetrically fixed at the bottom of the bracket, a sliding column is slidably provided at the bottom of the two supporting legs, a support plate is fixedly provided at the bottom of the two sliding columns, a buffer spring is sleeved on the outside of the two sliding columns, one end of the buffer spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the supporting leg, and the other end of the buffer spring is fixedly connected to the support plate, and a rubber sleeve is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the two support plates.

[0014] In a possible design, a placement rack is fixedly provided on the top of the bracket.

[0015] In a possible design, a support base is fixedly provided at the bottom of the fixing frame, and connecting plates are fixedly provided on both sides of the fixing frame, and both connecting plates are fixedly connected to the support base.

[0016] In this application, when starting to use, first ensure that the copper crucible flip mechanism has been correctly installed in a stable working area, the support base at the bottom of the fixed frame is firmly fixed to the ground, and the connecting plates on both sides are tightly connected to the support base to enhance the overall stability, and then the electrical components and hydraulic components on the device are connected accordingly;

[0017] The copper crucible to be flipped is then placed on the placement rack on the top of the bracket to ensure that the copper crucible is centered and stable, and then the clamping mechanism is started. First, multiple electric push rods are started to work by controlling the switch. The output ends of multiple electric push rods push the corresponding clamping racks on the connecting rack 2, so that the clamping racks on the same fixed seat are brought closer to the center. As the electric push rods push, the clamping racks gradually clamp the copper crucible to ensure that the copper crucible will not fall off or shake during the flipping process. When the copper crucible is firmly clamped, check whether the hydraulic cylinder of the flipping assembly is in the initial state, that is, the state without applying pressure, and then start the two hydraulic cylinders of the flipping assembly. The two hydraulic cylinders work at the same time, and their output ends extend at the same time to push the mounting rack 2 at the bottom of the bracket, so that the bracket starts to flip with the connecting seat as the axis. According to needs, the hydraulic cylinder can control the flipping angle to ensure that the copper crucible can be flipped to the required position. When the copper crucible is flipped to the specified position, the hydraulic cylinder stops working and the bracket remains in this position.

[0018] During the bracket resetting process, the support plate at its bottom first contacts the top of the fixing frame through the rubber sleeve. At this time, the support plate slides in the support leg through the sliding column. At this time, the buffer spring is under force and absorbs and disperses the vibration and impact through its own elastic principle, playing a certain buffering and shock-absorbing role, reducing the vibration and impact transmitted to the fixing frame and the entire mechanism, and protecting the equipment from damage. The rubber sleeve serves as a buffer layer between the support plate and the fixing frame. The softness and elasticity of the rubber not only reduces direct contact between metals, reduces friction and wear, but also prevents noise and potential damage caused by hard collisions.

[0019] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] The utility model adopts the arrangement of the turning assembly and the two synchronously working hydraulic cylinders to provide stable and powerful power, and accurately controls the turning of the bracket and the copper crucible thereon, which not only ensures the stability and accuracy of the turning process, but also allows the turning angle to be adjusted according to actual needs, thereby meeting the requirements of different processes and operations. In addition, during the turning process, the copper crucible can be firmly maintained on the predetermined track, effectively preventing shaking, thereby improving the safety and efficiency of production.

[0021] The utility model adopts the setting of the clamping mechanism and drives the clamping frame to move closer to the center through multiple electric push rods, so as to achieve a firm clamping of the copper crucible, which not only simplifies the clamping operation but also improves the stability and reliability of the clamping. During the clamping process, the precise control of the electric push rods ensures the uniform distribution of the clamping force, effectively preventing the copper crucible from being deformed or damaged due to uneven force. At the same time, the flexibility and adjustability of the clamping assembly also enable it to adapt to copper crucibles of different specifications and shapes, thereby enhancing the versatility and adaptability of the equipment. During the flipping process, the firm clamping of the clamping assembly provides a solid support for the copper crucible, ensuring the smooth flipping, and further improving the production efficiency and product quality.

[0022] In the utility model, the combined effect of the buffer spring and the rubber sleeve improves the stability and safety of the bracket during the resetting process, and can effectively prevent the bracket from suddenly hitting the fixing frame and causing damage to the equipment even when external conditions change or operation is improper.

[0023] The utility model realizes efficient and safe control of the copper crucible turning process through the coordinated arrangement between the turning component and the clamping component, which not only ensures the stability and accuracy of the turning, but also improves the production efficiency, while reducing the operation difficulty and maintenance cost, and enhancing the overall performance and adaptability of the equipment.
