Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furnace charging technology, and in particular to a charging device for an aluminum ingot furnace. Background Technology

[0002] Aluminum is the world's second most produced and consumed non-ferrous metal after steel. Due to its light weight, aluminum is frequently used in the manufacture of automobiles, trains, subways, ships, airplanes, rockets, and spacecraft to reduce weight and increase payload. Aluminum ingots can be classified into various types, including but not limited to aluminum ingots, high-purity aluminum ingots, and aluminum alloy ingots (such as die-cast aluminum ingots, ADC1 aluminum ingots, ZL104 alloy, and ZL105 alloy). These different types of aluminum ingots differ in composition, properties, and applications. For example, die-cast aluminum ingots are mainly used in automobiles. In manufacturing, furniture industry, lighting design and other fields; ADC1 aluminum ingots are used for overhead lines, accessories, ship parts, handles, carving blanks, office equipment and aircraft electrical installation supplies, etc. In the smelting process, workers transport aluminum ingots to the furnace mouth platform and use pusher rakes to push the material into the smelting furnace. The pushing process is achieved by moving the material with a forklift. This material feeding process first requires opening the large furnace cover of the smelting furnace and then manually feeding the material, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also easily causes the smelting furnace to lose temperature.

[0003] The existing patent number CN221376287U discloses a fully automatic smelting furnace feeding device, including a chain conveyor belt and a chain conveyor belt fixing frame, as well as a fixing plate, a bottom plate, a sliding plate, and a reinforcing plate. Mounting plates are fixedly installed on the front sides of both fixing plates, and a damping plate is installed on the upper front side between the two mounting plates. This design utilizes the sliding plate in conjunction with the reinforcing plate and the bottom plate to receive and guide aluminum ingots from the chain conveyor belt into the furnace, realizing the furnace feeding operation. Furthermore, the mounting plate and damping plate ensure the guiding and limiting of the aluminum ingots during their descent. Secondly, the small gap between the sliding plate and the chain conveyor belt makes it less prone to material jamming. The entire feeding device has good structural strength, requires no rolling bearings, and can be used for long-term smelting furnace feeding operations in medium- and high-temperature environments.

[0004] Using the above method, aluminum ingots are transported to the furnace using a chain conveyor belt. However, since the aluminum ingots vary in size, larger ingots need to be manually removed, resulting in a waste of manpower. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a feeding device for an aluminum ingot smelting furnace, which solves the problem found in the use of existing devices. When using a chain conveyor belt to transport aluminum ingots into the furnace, the aluminum ingots are transported to different sizes, which requires manual removal of larger aluminum ingots, resulting in a waste of manpower.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a feeding device for an aluminum ingot smelting furnace, including a base plate, a conveyor belt, and a feeding mechanism. The conveyor belt is mounted on the base plate, and the feeding mechanism is disposed on the base plate.

[0007] The system also includes a screening mechanism, which comprises a mounting plate, a screening frame, a screening rack, a screening mesh, a sealing plate, a collecting component, and auxiliary components. The mounting plate is fixedly mounted on the base plate, the screening frame is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the mounting plate, the screening rack is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the screening frame, the screening mesh is inserted into the screening frame, the sealing plate is hinged to the screening frame, the collecting component is disposed on the screening frame, and the auxiliary components are disposed on the screening rack.

[0008] The collection component includes a bracket and a collection box. The bracket is fixedly installed on the screening frame, and the collection box is slidably installed on the bracket.

[0009] The collecting component further includes a first crushing roller and a second crushing roller, which are located inside the screening frame and are mounted on the screening frame via auxiliary components.

[0010] The auxiliary component includes a connecting rod and a drive wheel. The connecting rod is fixedly connected to the crushing roller, and the drive wheel is fixedly mounted on the connecting rod.

[0011] The auxiliary components include a driven wheel and a rotating rod. The rotating rod is fixedly connected to the second crushing roller, the driven wheel is fixedly mounted on the rotating rod, and the driving wheel meshes with the driven wheel.

[0012] This utility model discloses a feeding device for an aluminum ingot smelting furnace. First, aluminum ingots are poured into the screening rack. An external motor drives a connecting rod to rotate, which in turn drives a first crushing roller to rotate. The connecting rod then drives a driving wheel to rotate, which in turn drives a driven wheel to rotate. The driven wheel then drives a second crushing roller to rotate. The two crushing rollers work together to crush the aluminum ingots. The crushed ingots pass through the screening rack and into the screening frame, where they are screened by a screen mesh. Ingots meeting size requirements pass through the mesh and proceed to the next process, while larger ingots fall through the slots in the screening frame and are collected in a collection box. This eliminates the need for manual removal, improving work efficiency. It solves the problem found in existing devices where aluminum ingots are transported to the furnace using a chain conveyor belt, but larger ingots need to be removed due to their varying sizes, resulting in wasted manpower.

[0024] This embodiment provides a feeding device for an aluminum ingot smelting furnace, including a base plate 101, a conveyor belt 102, a feeding mechanism 103, and a screening mechanism. The screening mechanism includes a mounting plate 104, a screening frame 105, a screening rack 106, a screening mesh 107, a sealing plate 108, a collection component, and auxiliary components. The collection component includes a support 115 and a collection box 116, and also includes a first crushing roller 109 and a second crushing roller 110. The auxiliary components include a connecting rod 111 and a driving wheel 112, and also include a driven wheel 113 and a rotating rod 114. The aforementioned solution solves the problem found in the use of existing devices where, although aluminum ingots are transported to the furnace using the chain conveyor belt 102, larger ingots need to be rejected due to their varying sizes, resulting in wasted manpower.

[0025] In this embodiment, the conveyor belt 102 is installed on the base plate 101, and the feeding mechanism 103 is disposed on the base plate 101. The feeding mechanism 103 includes existing structures such as side plates, fixed plates, base plate 101, reinforcing plates, sliding plates, damping plates, and damping components. This existing structure adopts the connection method and principle in the prior art document. The aluminum ingots are screened by the screening mesh 107, thereby removing larger aluminum ingots without the need for manual removal.

[0026] The mounting plate 104 is fixedly mounted on the base plate 101. The screening frame 105 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the mounting plate 104. The screening rack 106 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the screening frame 105. The screening mesh 107 is inserted into the screening frame 105. The sealing plate 108 is hinged to the screening frame 105. The collecting component is disposed on the screening frame 105. The auxiliary component is disposed on the screening rack 106. There are two mounting plates 104, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the conveyor belt 102. The screening frame 105 is located directly above the input end of the conveyor belt 102. The screening rack 106 and the screening frame 105 are connected. The screening frame 105 has a matching insertion groove for the screening mesh 107. The screening mesh 107 forms a 30° angle with the screening frame 105. To facilitate aluminum ingot screening, the sealing plate 108 is located at the insertion slot of the screening frame 105. A sealing gasket is installed on the sealing plate 108, which matches the insertion slot. The sealing gasket increases the sealing performance between the sealing plate 108 and the screening frame 105. The screening mesh 107 is easy to maintain and replace later through the insertion method. In use, after the aluminum ingot enters the screening frame 105 through the screening rack 106, it is screened by the screening mesh 107. Aluminum ingots that meet the size requirements pass through the mesh of the screening mesh 107 and enter the next process, while larger aluminum ingots are rejected. This eliminates the need for manual rejection, improves work efficiency, and solves the problem found in the use of existing devices. The chain conveyor belt 102 transports aluminum ingots to the furnace, but due to the different sizes of aluminum ingots, larger aluminum ingots need to be rejected, resulting in a waste of manpower.

[0027] Secondly, the bracket 115 is fixedly installed on the screening frame 105, and the collection box 116 is slidably installed on the bracket 115. The screening frame 105 has a slot that connects to the interior of the screening frame 105 and corresponds to the screening mesh 107. The collection box 116 is located in the slot of the screening frame 105. After large aluminum ingots roll through the screening mesh 107, they fall through the slot of the screening frame 105 and are collected in the collection box 116.

[0028] Furthermore, the first crushing roller 109 and the second crushing roller 110 are located inside the screening frame 106. The first crushing roller 109 and the second crushing roller 110 are set on the screening frame through auxiliary components. The first crushing roller 109 and the second crushing roller 110 work together to crush aluminum ingots. At the same time, they can also crush aluminum ingots in the collection box 116.

[0029] Meanwhile, the connecting rod 111 is fixedly connected to the crushing roller 109, the drive wheel 112 is fixedly installed on the connecting rod 111, the connecting rod 111 is installed on the screening frame 106 through bearings, the connecting rod 111 is connected to an external motor, and the external motor drives the connecting rod 111 to rotate, and the rotation of the connecting rod 111 drives the crushing roller 109 to rotate.

[0030] In addition, the rotating rod 114 is fixedly connected to the second crushing roller 110, the driven wheel 113 is fixedly installed on the rotating rod 114, the driving wheel 112 meshes with the driven wheel 113, the rotating rod 114 is connected to the screening frame 105 through a bearing, the driving wheel 112 is driven to rotate by the rotation of the connecting rod 111, the driving wheel 112 is driven to rotate by the rotation of the driving wheel 112, the driven wheel 113 is driven to rotate by the rotation of the driven wheel 113, and the second crushing roller 110 is driven to rotate by the rotation of the first crushing roller 109 and the second crushing roller 110, so that the aluminum ingot is crushed by the cooperation of the first crushing roller 109 and the second crushing roller 110.

[0031] When using the aluminum ingot smelting furnace feeding device of this embodiment, the aluminum ingot is first poured into the screening rack 106. Then, an external motor drives the connecting rod 111 to rotate. The rotation of the connecting rod 111 drives the first crushing roller 109 to rotate. The rotation of the connecting rod 111 drives the driving wheel 112 to rotate. The rotation of the driving wheel 112 drives the driven wheel 113 to rotate. The rotation of the driven wheel 113 drives the second crushing roller 110 to rotate. The aluminum ingot is crushed by the cooperation of the first crushing roller 109 and the second crushing roller 110. The crushed aluminum ingot passes through the screening rack 106. After entering the screening frame 105, the aluminum ingots are screened by the screening mesh 107. Aluminum ingots that meet the size requirements pass through the mesh of the screening mesh 107 and enter the next process, while larger aluminum ingots fall into the collection box 116 through the slots of the screening frame 105 and are collected without manual removal, thus improving work efficiency. This solves the problem found in the use of existing devices, where aluminum ingots are transported to the furnace by the chain conveyor belt 102, but due to the different sizes of aluminum ingots, larger aluminum ingots need to be removed, resulting in a waste of manpower.

[0032] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely one or more preferred embodiments of this application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this application. Those skilled in the art can understand that all or part of the processes for implementing the above embodiments and equivalent changes made in accordance with the claims of this application still fall within the scope of this application.
