Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of aluminum alloy production, in particular to a slag cleaning device for aluminum alloy casting shaft. Background Art
[0002] Due to their excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and weldability, aluminum and aluminum alloys are widely used in aerospace, transportation, construction, electromechanical, light chemical, and daily necessities. During the aluminum alloy profile manufacturing process, the alloyed aluminum alloy melt is refined, degassed, and free of impurities. Deep-well casting forms aluminum alloy ingots, which are then extruded as needed to form aluminum alloy profiles. During deep-well casting, a small amount of molten aluminum inevitably leaks into the casting well, forming slag. Furthermore, after casting, large amounts of slag fall into the casting well during the cleaning of the crystallized plate surface. If this slag is not promptly removed, it will gradually accumulate in the casting well, potentially causing the aluminum alloy casting machine base to not lower properly, resulting in product lengths not meeting process requirements, equipment damage, and overflow of hot molten aluminum into the casting well, leading to explosions and other accidents. Currently, slag removal in the industry is primarily done manually, which presents challenges such as harsh working conditions, low cleaning efficiency, and high operational risks. Therefore, an automatic slag cleaning device for aluminum alloy casting shafts is urgently needed to overcome these shortcomings.
[0003] Existing shaft cleaning devices, such as one with publication number CN214169401U, reduce the number of drive mechanisms and eliminate the need for external drive mechanisms between the first and second claws. This significantly reduces the size of the shaft cleaning device, making it easier to transport and store. However, existing grabbing devices are designed for periodic capture of sludge, trash, and debris, rather than for capturing slag formed by molten aluminum. This slag adheres to the shaft walls and bottom, making existing cleaning devices unsuitable for this purpose. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an aluminum alloy casting shaft slag cleaning device to solve the technical problem that the existing shaft cleaning device is not suitable for cleaning the shaft slag formed by aluminum liquid.
[0005] The embodiments of the present invention are achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0006] A slag cleaning device for an aluminum alloy casting vertical shaft comprises a collecting box arranged at the bottom of the shaft for collecting and discharging the shaft slag and a support frame slidably connected to the collecting box for lifting it out of the shaft for slag discharge; the collecting box is slidably provided with a pusher plate for flattening the shaft slag.
[0007] Preferably, the support frame is provided with a first chute for slidingly connecting the collection box and a winch for lifting the collection box.
[0008] Preferably, it also includes a lifting rope connected to the winch, a pulley device provided at the top of the support frame for changing the direction of the lifting rope, and a lifting lug provided at the collection box and connected to the lifting rope.
[0009] Preferably, the lifting rope is provided with an anti-detachment hook for connecting to the lifting ear.
[0010] Preferably, the collecting box is further provided with a telescopic device for driving the pushing plate to slide in the horizontal direction and a connecting rod for connecting the telescopic end of the telescopic device and the pushing plate.
[0011] Preferably, the collecting box is further provided with a second sliding groove for passing the connecting rod, and the connecting rod passes through the second sliding groove to link the pushing plate.
[0012] Preferably, it also includes a base connected to the lower end of the support frame to support the collection box.
[0013] This technical solution uses a winch and support frame to lift the collection box. At the end of the work cycle, the collection box can be automatically lifted out of the deep well, eliminating the need for manual cleaning. This improves labor efficiency and allows for the quick and effective removal of slag from the well bottom from the shaft. Compared to traditional manual cleaning methods, this is more efficient, reduces labor intensity, and shortens cleaning time. A pusher plate is provided, connected via a cylinder. Once the filtrate drips into the collection box, the pusher plate pushes the aluminum slag to a horizontal position without affecting the normal descent of the casting base, ensuring the levelness of the base, improving casting accuracy, and enhancing work efficiency. The use of an anti-drop hook in conjunction with a lifting lug enhances the safety of the equipment, ensuring that the collection box does not accidentally fall off during the lifting process, thereby ensuring the safety of the operator. Centrally collecting and discharging well slag helps maintain a clean working environment and avoids contamination caused by scattered slag. The design of the telescopic device and pusher plate not only facilitates the flattening of collected slag for transportation and processing, but also makes maintenance of the entire system more convenient. In the event of a malfunction or when regular inspection is required, components are easily accessible for repair or replacement. This device is adaptable to shafts of varying sizes and depths, offering a degree of flexibility. By adjusting the height of the support frame or varying the power of the winch, it can adapt to a variety of operating conditions. This improves work efficiency, reduces labor costs, and mitigates the additional expenses associated with safety incidents, resulting in excellent overall economic benefits.
[0014] In summary, this aluminum alloy casting shaft slag cleaning device solves many problems existing in traditional methods through technological innovation, while improving work efficiency and ensuring operational safety and environmental protection.
[0015] The technical solution of the embodiment of the utility model has at least the following advantages and beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. The utility model is connected to the collection box through a winch. At the end of the working cycle, the collection box can be automatically lifted out of the deep well, eliminating the need for manual cleaning, thereby improving labor efficiency.
[0017] 2. The utility model is provided with a push plate, which is connected by a cylinder. After the filtrate drips into the collection box, the push plate pushes the aluminum slag to a horizontal state without affecting the normal fall of the casting base, thereby ensuring the level of the base, improving the casting accuracy and improving work efficiency.

[0030] A slag cleaning device for an aluminum alloy casting vertical shaft includes a collecting box 6 arranged at the bottom of the shaft for collecting and discharging the shaft slag and a support frame 3 slidably connected to the collecting box 6 for lifting it out of the shaft for slag discharge. The collecting box 6 is slidably provided with a pusher plate 11 for flattening the shaft slag.
