A clamping mechanism 9 is provided on the other side of the support arm 3, and the clamping mechanism 9 adjusts the clamping spacing according to the diameter of the cathode rod to meet the positioning of cathode rods of different diameters and drives the cathode rod to be rotated and installed.
[0023] In this embodiment, the distance adjustment mechanism 4 includes a support arm 3, a support plate 5, a transverse support arm 6, a guide bar 7 and a guide rail 13. The top of the support arm 3 is connected to the support plate 5, and the top of the support plate 5 is symmetrically provided with a guide rail 13. The outer side of the guide rail 13 is connected to the guide bar 7, and the guide bar 7 is symmetrically provided on both sides of the transverse support arm 6.
[0024] In this embodiment, the inner guide seat 2 is connected to the bottom end of the support arm 3 through an electric cylinder 16 provided inside. The electric cylinder 16 pushes the bottom end of the support arm 3, thereby dynamically adjusting the height of the support arm 3.
[0025] In this embodiment, the guide rail 13 is connected to one side of the transverse support arm 6 through a guide bar 7 connected on one side. The outer side of the guide bar 7 is positioned by the guide rail 13, thereby facilitating the sliding of the transverse support arm 6 on the outer side of the guide rail 13.
[0026] In this embodiment, the clamping mechanism 9 includes a transverse support arm 6, an outer sleeve 8, a rolling bearing 10, a motor 11, a transverse guide rod 12, a spring column 14 and a clamp 15. One side of the transverse support arm 6 is connected to the rolling bearing 10, the outer side of the rolling bearing 10 is connected to the outer sleeve 8, one end of the spring column 14 is symmetrically arranged inside the outer sleeve 8, the other end of the spring column 14 is connected to the clamp 15, one side of the clamp 15 is connected to the transverse guide rod 12, the transverse guide rod 12 is symmetrically connected to both sides of the outer sleeve 8, the motor 11 is installed on one side of the transverse support arm 6, and the output end of the motor 11 is connected to the tail end of the outer sleeve 8.
[0027] In this embodiment, the transverse support arm 6 is connected to the outer side of the outer sleeve 8 through a rolling bearing 10 provided on the outer side. The outer side of the outer sleeve 8 is positioned by the rolling bearing 10 to prevent the outer sleeve 8 from being offset during rotation.
[0028] In this embodiment, the outer sleeve 8 is connected to one side of the clamp 15 via a symmetrically penetrating transverse guide rod 12 , and the clamp 15 is guided and positioned by the transverse guide rod 12 .
[0029] The practical application of this plasma maintenance cathode auxiliary replacement device for power plants includes the following work contents:
[0030] Step 1: During the replacement process, first, according to the height of the horizontal equipment, the operator opens the electric cylinder 16 and pushes the bottom end of the support arm 3 through the electric cylinder 16, thereby dynamically adjusting the height of the support arm 3 and adjusting the height of the clamp 15 at the same time. Then, the horizontal support arm 6 is pushed to slide on the outside of the guide rail 13 through the guide strips 7 provided on both sides, and the position of the horizontal support arm 6 is adjusted so that the outer sleeve 8 provided on one side of the horizontal support arm 6 is wrapped with the outside of the cathode rod;
[0031] Step 2: When the cathode rod is inserted into the outer sleeve 8, the clamp 15 moves outward according to the diameter of the electric rod, and the spring columns 14 provided on both sides are used to perform corresponding expansion and contraction processing. At the same time, the transverse guide rod 12 is used to move outside the outer sleeve 8, and then the clamps 15 provided on both sides are used to wrap the outside of the cathode rod. According to the length of the cathode rod, the cathode rod is clamped by two groups or one group of clamps 15;
[0032] Step 3: The operator can then remove the bolts connecting the bottom end of the cathode rod and the ignition device, and then turn on the motor 11 to drive one end of the outer sleeve 8 to rotate. The clamp 15 provided on the outside of the outer sleeve 8 drives the cathode rod to rotate, thereby separating the cathode rod from the device. At the same time, the rolling bearing 10 is used to limit the outer side of the outer sleeve 8 and rotate it.
[0033] Step 4: The operator then pulls the horizontal support arm 6 in the opposite direction. The horizontal support arm 6 slides on the outside of the guide rail 13 through the guide bars 7 set on both sides, and the electrode rod is taken out from the inside of the horizontal equipment. The new electrode rod is then inserted into the inside of the outer sleeve 8. The outer side of the electrode rod is clamped by the clamp 15 set inside the outer sleeve 8, and the new electrode rod is then inserted into the inside of the equipment. The outer sleeve 8 and the electrode rod are driven to rotate by the motor 11, and the electrode rod is assembled with the equipment.
[0034] Therefore, the embodiments disclosed above are only illustrative in all respects and are not exclusive. All changes within the scope of the present invention or within the scope equivalent to the present invention are included in the present invention.
