Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum rod processing technology, and specifically to a cooling device for aluminum rod processing. Background Technology

[0002] Aluminum rods are a type of aluminum product. The casting of aluminum rods includes melting, purification, impurity removal, degassing, slag removal, and casting processes. During the aluminum rod processing, the cooled aluminum rods need to be removed before the next processing step can be carried out. However, the existing cooling devices make the process of removing aluminum rods inconvenient and affect the efficiency of the next processing step.

[0003] In the prior art, a Chinese patent document with publication number CN221695243U was proposed to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. The technical solution disclosed in the patent document is as follows: a circulating cooling device for aluminum rod processing, including an aluminum rod processing device body.

[0004] To address the inconvenience of removing aluminum rods from existing cooling devices, which affects the efficiency of subsequent processing, the current technology uses a moving component. However, this still results in situations where the aluminum rod does not rotate during cooling, leading to slow cooling speeds and uneven cooling in some areas. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cooling device for aluminum rod processing to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A cooling device for aluminum rod processing includes a cooling box, a material guiding mechanism movably installed in the middle of the inner cavity of the cooling box, a water cooling mechanism fixedly installed inside the cooling box, and an air cooling mechanism fixedly installed on the top of the cooling box.

[0008] The material guiding mechanism includes a material guiding unit and a pushing and rotating unit, wherein the pushing and rotating unit is movably mounted on the surface of the material guiding unit.

[0009] A further improvement of the present invention is that the cooling box includes a cooling box body, a feeding rack is fixedly installed on the left side of the cooling box body, and a discharging rack is fixedly installed on the right side of the cooling box body.

[0010] A further improvement of this utility model is that: the material guiding unit includes a receiving groove plate fixedly installed on the inner surface of the cooling box, a rotary drive is fixedly installed on the back of the cooling box, and a turnover bracket is sleeved on the surface of the rotating block of the rotary drive. The turnover bracket is rotated by controlling the rotary drive, which can drive the aluminum rod to move backward.

[0011] A further improvement of this utility model is that the pushing and rotating unit includes a transmission drive fixedly installed on the surface of the cooling box body, and a transmission accessory is overlapped and installed on the surface of the receiving groove plate. The transmission shaft of the transmission drive and the transmission shaft of the transmission accessory are connected by a transmission belt. The surface of the transmission belt is fixedly installed with protrusions. By setting the pushing and rotating unit, the transmission drive can be started to drive the transmission belt to rotate in conjunction with the transmission accessory, so that the protrusions can contact the aluminum rod and rotate it in the receiving groove plate through transmission, thereby preventing slow cooling speed and uneven cooling in some places.

[0012] A further improvement of this utility model is that the water cooling mechanism includes a recovery filter box fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the cooling box, a circulation pump fixedly installed on one side of the recovery filter box, and a water spray frame fixedly installed on the top of the inner cavity of the cooling box. By cooperating with the recovery filter box and the circulation pump, water resources can be effectively saved.

[0013] A further improvement of this utility model is that the air-cooling mechanism includes a cold air fan fixedly installed on the top surface of the cooling box. An air duct is fixedly installed at the output end of the cold air fan, and an air outlet hood is fixedly installed at the air outlet end of the air duct. By setting up the air-cooling mechanism, after water cooling, the cold air fan, in conjunction with the air duct, passes through the air outlet hood to cool the aluminum rod. At the same time, the cold air cooling can blow away the water droplets remaining on the surface of the aluminum rod due to the wind force, saving the cost of manual removal later.

[0014] A further improvement of this utility model is that the bearings of the rotary drive, transmission drive, and transmission accessories are all connected to the cooling box body, and the circulating pump is connected to the recovery filter box and the water spray frame through pipes. The connection by the overlapping method can support them without affecting the transmission.

[0015] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technological progress achieved by this utility model compared to the prior art is as follows:

[0016] 1. This utility model provides a cooling device for aluminum rod processing. By setting a push rotation unit, the transmission drive can be activated to drive the transmission belt to rotate in conjunction with the transmission accessories, so that the protrusion contacts the aluminum rod and rotates it in the receiving groove plate through transmission, thereby preventing slow cooling speed and uneven cooling in some parts.

[0017] 2. This utility model provides a cooling device for aluminum rod processing. By setting two sets of driving and rotating units, and without using long bearings for connection, the long bearings can effectively restrict the rotation of the turnover bracket. At the same time, it can effectively improve the efficiency of transmission to promote rotation and prevent the single motor drive from being too weak to achieve rotation.

[0018] 3. This utility model provides a cooling device for aluminum rod processing. By setting up an air-cooling mechanism, after water cooling, the device can use a cold air fan and air duct to cool the aluminum rod through the air outlet hood. At the same time, the cold air cooling can blow away the water droplets remaining on the surface of the aluminum rod due to the wind force, saving the cost of manual removal later.

[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:

[0026] Example 1

[0027] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a cooling device for aluminum rod processing, including a cooling box 1. The cooling box 1 includes a cooling box body 11. A feeding rack 12 is fixedly installed on the left side of the cooling box body 11, and a discharging rack 13 is fixedly installed on the right side of the cooling box body 11. A guiding mechanism 2 is movably installed in the middle of the inner cavity of the cooling box 1. A water cooling mechanism 3 is fixedly installed inside the cooling box 1, and an air cooling mechanism 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the cooling box 1. The guiding mechanism 2 includes a guiding unit and a pushing and rotating unit. The pushing and rotating unit is movably installed on the surface of the guiding unit. By setting the pushing and rotating unit, the aluminum rod can be rotated, thereby preventing slow cooling speed and uneven cooling in some areas.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: Preferably, the material guiding unit includes a receiving groove plate 21 fixedly installed on the inner surface of the cooling box body 11, a rotary drive 22 fixedly installed on the back of the cooling box body 11, a turnover bracket 23 sleeved on the rotating block surface of the rotary drive 22, and a pushing rotation unit including a transmission drive 24 fixedly installed on the surface of the cooling box body 11, a transmission accessory 25 overlapping on the surface of the receiving groove plate 21, a transmission belt 26 drivingly connected to the transmission shaft of the transmission drive 24 and the transmission shaft of the transmission accessory 25, and a protrusion 27 fixedly installed on the surface of the transmission belt 26. By setting two sets of pushing rotation units, without using long bearings for connection, the long bearings can effectively restrict the rotation of the turnover bracket 23, and at the same time, the efficiency of transmission promoting rotation can be effectively improved, preventing the single motor drive from being too weak to achieve rotation.

[0030] Example 3

[0031] like Figure 1-5 As shown, based on embodiments 1-2, this utility model provides a technical solution: Preferably, the water cooling mechanism 3 includes a recovery filter box 31 fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the cooling box 11, a circulation pump 32 fixedly installed on one side of the recovery filter box 31, and a water spray frame 33 fixedly installed on the top of the inner cavity of the cooling box 11. The air cooling mechanism 4 includes a cold air fan 41 fixedly installed on the top surface of the cooling box 11, an air duct 42 fixedly installed at the output end of the cold air fan 41, and an air outlet hood 43 fixedly installed at the air outlet end of the air duct 42. The bearings of the rotary drive 22, the transmission drive 24, and the transmission accessory 25 are all connected to the cooling box 11. The circulation pump 32 is connected to the recovery filter box 31 and the water spray frame 33 through pipes. By setting the air cooling mechanism 4, after water cooling, the cold air fan 41, in conjunction with the air duct 42, passes through the air outlet hood 43 to cool the aluminum rod. At the same time, the cold air cooling can blow away the water droplets remaining on the surface of the aluminum rod due to the wind force, saving the cost of manual removal later.

[0032] The working principle of the cooling device for aluminum rod processing will be explained in detail below.

[0033] like Figure 1-5As shown, when the cooling device is in use, the aluminum rod is lowered by the unloading rack 12 and rolls onto the receiving trough plate 21. At this time, the circulating pump 32 draws water from the recycling filter box 31 and sprays it out through the spray rack 33 to cool it down. The rotary drive 22 drives the rotating bracket 23 to rotate, which can drive the aluminum rod to move backward. At the same time, the drive drive 24 is started and works with the drive accessory 25 to make the drive belt 26 rotate, so that the protrusion 27 contacts the aluminum rod and makes it rotate in the receiving trough plate 21. The aluminum rod moves backward and the cold air fan 41 is started again to output cold air through the air guide pipe 42 and the air outlet hood 43 to cool it down and blow away the residual water droplets. Then the aluminum rod can be discharged through the unloading rack 13.

[0034] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
