Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum electrolysis technology, specifically to an anode carbon block stacking and palletizing device. Background Technology
[0002] Anode carbon blocks are electrodes used in the electrolytic aluminum production process to carry out redox reactions. A large quantity of anode carbon blocks is required during electrolytic aluminum production, and ensuring their full utilization is crucial. Existing solutions include anode grooving. This increases the anode surface area, enhances the contact volume between the anode and the electrolyte, reduces anode loss during electrolysis, and lowers energy consumption. However, due to the large size and weight of the anode carbon blocks, the production process requires significant manpower and resources, resulting in low efficiency and often necessitating mechanical equipment. Current technology involves direct conveying of the grooved anodes, which suffers from low production efficiency, difficulty in control, and reduced conveying distance. Therefore, the existing technology for conveying grooved anode carbon blocks is still insufficient and requires further improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides an anode carbon block stacking and palletizing device, which is installed after the carbon block slotting process to stack the slotted carbon blocks, thereby improving conveying efficiency and saving manpower.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an anode carbon block stacking and palletizing device, comprising a track support, a frame mounted above the track support, roller sets on both sides of the frame along the carbon block transport direction, a motor connected to the roller sets to enable the frame to reciprocate on the track support, a lifting drive assembly on each side of the frame parallel to the axis of the roller sets, the lifting drive assembly having spaced-apart cylinder supports, second sprocket bases and first sprocket bases, the cylinder supports being hinged to the drive cylinder, the first sprocket bases and second sprocket bases being respectively equipped with a first sprocket and a second sprocket, the cylinder rod of the drive cylinder being fixedly connected to a first roller chain, the first roller chain first passing over the first sprocket and then over the second sprocket and being fixedly connected to a clamping assembly, the clamping assembly being slidably connected to the frame in the vertical direction, and the clamping assembly having symmetrically arranged clamping cylinders.
[0005] The second sprockets of the two sets of lifting drive components are connected by synchronous rollers.
[0006] After the first roller chain passes around the second sprocket, it is connected to the second and third roller chains via a triangular plate. The clamping assembly is provided with a left lug and a right lug, and the second and third roller chains are fixedly connected to the left lug and the right lug, respectively.
[0007] A safety chain is provided between the frame and the clamping assembly.
[0008] The cylinder of the clamping cylinder is fixedly connected to the clamping plate.
[0009] The track support is equipped with stops at both ends for limiting the movement of the vehicle frame.
[0010] The roller assembly is divided into a follower roller assembly and a drive roller assembly along the carbon block conveying direction. The drive roller assembly is connected to the motor via a transmission shaft.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model can stack and palletize the slotted charcoal blocks, reducing transportation costs and improving production efficiency; during use, the charcoal blocks are clamped by symmetrical clamping cylinders, so that the two ends of the charcoal blocks are evenly stressed; the extension and retraction of the cylinder rod of the driving cylinder drives the roller chain to drive the clamping assembly to move up and down to achieve stacking and palletizing of the charcoal blocks, while synchronous rollers are used to ensure the synchronicity and stability of the roller chain transmission; the motor drives the roller group through the transmission shaft to drive the frame to reciprocate along the charcoal block transportation direction to achieve the transmission of the charcoal blocks.

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0018] The technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be selected to be combined or substituted with each other according to the actual situation, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. Example
[0019] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model provides an anode carbon block stacking and palletizing device, including a track support 1, a frame 2 is arranged above the track support 1, and roller groups are arranged on both sides of the frame 2 along the transport direction of carbon blocks 11. A motor 3 is connected to the roller groups to make the frame 2 reciprocate on the track support 1. A lifting drive assembly is arranged on each side of the frame 2 parallel to the axis of the roller groups. The lifting drive assembly is provided with a cylinder support 4, a second sprocket base 6 and a first sprocket base 5 arranged at intervals. The cylinder support 4 is hinged to the drive cylinder 7. The first sprocket base 5 and the second sprocket base 6 are respectively equipped with a first sprocket 8 and a second sprocket 9. The cylinder rod of the drive cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to a first roller chain 10. The first roller chain 10 first passes around the first sprocket 8 and then around the second sprocket 9 and is fixedly connected to a clamping assembly. The clamping assembly is slidably connected to the frame 2 in the vertical direction. The clamping assembly is provided with symmetrically arranged clamping cylinders 13.
[0020] The track support 1 serves as the main support, and the motor 3 drives the roller assembly to move the frame 2 back and forth on the track support 1 to transfer the carbon block 11. The drive cylinder 7, through the extension and retraction of its cylinder rod, causes the first roller chain 10 to drive the clamping assembly to move up and down to stack the carbon block 11. The clamping cylinder 13 of the clamping assembly acts as a clamping element to stably clamp the carbon block 11. By using the above technology, the slotted carbon block 11 can be stacked into four pieces for transportation, improving production efficiency and reducing labor costs.
[0021] Furthermore, the second sprockets 9 of the two sets of lifting drive components are connected by a synchronous roller 14. The synchronous roller 14 makes the second sprockets 9 rotate synchronously, thereby ensuring the synchronicity of the transmission of the two sets of lifting drive components and making the clamping components driven by the two sets of lifting drive components lift and lower synchronously.
[0022] Furthermore, after the first roller chain 10 passes around the second sprocket 9, it is connected to the second roller chain 16 and the third roller chain 17 via a triangular plate 15. The clamping assembly is provided with a left lifting lug 18 and a right lifting lug 19, and the second roller chain 16 and the third roller chain 17 are fixedly connected to the left lifting lug 18 and the right lifting lug 19, respectively. The triangular plate 15 distributes the transmission load of the first roller chain 10 to the second roller chain 16 and the third roller chain 17, reducing the load-bearing pressure on a single chain and extending its service life; it also improves the stress stability of the clamping assembly.
[0023] Furthermore, a safety chain 12 is provided between the frame 2 and the clamping assembly. The two ends of the safety chain 12 are welded and fixed to the frame 2 and the clamping assembly, respectively. When the first roller chain 10 breaks, the clamping assembly will fall rapidly, which will damage the equipment and cause safety hazards. The safety chain 12 limits the clamping assembly to prevent excessive falling.
[0024] Furthermore, the cylinder of the clamping cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 20. By setting the clamping plate 20, the clamping area of the carbon block is increased, thereby improving the stability of the clamping.
[0025] Furthermore, the track support 1 is provided with wheel stops 21 at both ends for limiting the movement of the frame 2.
[0026] Furthermore, the roller assembly is divided into a follower roller assembly 22 and a drive roller assembly 23 along the conveying direction of the carbon block 11, and the drive roller assembly 23 is connected to the motor 3 through a transmission shaft 24.
[0027] In addition to the preferred embodiments described above, there are other embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
