Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of anode furnace smelting technology, specifically to a feeding and replenishing device for anode furnace smelting. Background Technology
[0002] An anode furnace is a piece of equipment used for metal refining, primarily for refining crude copper into anode copper. It utilizes auxiliary heating and chemical reactions to produce high-purity oxygen and has wide applications in various fields.
[0003] When smelting in an anode furnace, a reducing agent needs to be added. The dosage of the reducing agent varies depending on the type and weight of the smelting mineral. Currently, when adding the reducing agent, it is necessary to first weigh the required amount of reducing agent using a weighing tool, and then transport the reducing agent to the feed pipe for addition. This is not only labor-intensive, but also prone to leakage during the handling and addition process, resulting in an insufficient dosage of reducing agent and affecting the smelting effect. Therefore, we propose a feeding and replenishing device for anode furnace smelting. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide a feeding and replenishing device for anode furnace smelting, which can automatically add and replenish the appropriate weight of reducing agent into the anode furnace according to the needs, and can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0006] Bracket: Reinforcing strips are fixed on the side;
[0007] Storage assembly: includes a storage tank, a guide block, a discharge pipe, and a solenoid valve. The storage tank is fixed to the side of the bracket and reinforcing strip. The guide block is fixed to the lower end of the storage tank. A discharge port is opened on the lower side of the storage tank. A discharge pipe is fixed inside the discharge port. A solenoid valve is installed on the circumference of the discharge pipe. A weighing assembly is installed on the right side of the storage tank. A feeding assembly is installed inside the weighing assembly. The feeding assembly corresponds to the storage tank. The input end of the solenoid valve is electrically connected to the output end of an external PLC controller. The storage assembly stores the reducing agent required for anode furnace smelting.
[0008] Furthermore, the weighing assembly includes a fixed frame, an electric telescopic rod, a connecting frame, a weighing bucket, and weighing sensors. The fixed frame is fixed to the right side of the storage box, and the electric telescopic rod is installed on the lower side of the fixed frame. The connecting frame is fixed to the telescopic arm of the electric telescopic rod, and the weighing bucket is fixed to the lower side of the connecting frame. Four corresponding weighing sensors are installed inside the weighing bucket. The weighing sensors are bidirectionally electrically connected to an external PLC controller, and the input end of the electric telescopic rod is electrically connected to the output end of the external PLC controller. The weighing assembly is used to weigh the reducing agent to be added.
[0009] Furthermore, the feeding assembly includes a storage tank, a motor, a rotating shaft, a scraper frame, and a spiral feeding rod. The storage tank is placed inside the weighing tank. A motor is installed at the upper end of the storage tank. A rotating shaft is fixed on the output shaft of the motor. A spiral feeding rod is fixed at the lower end of the rotating shaft. The spiral feeding rod fits against the lower end of the storage tank. A scraper frame is fixed on the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft. A guide hole is opened at the upper end of the storage tank. The guide hole corresponds to the discharge pipe. The input end of the motor is electrically connected to the output end of an external PLC controller. Feeding is performed by setting up the feeding assembly.
[0010] Furthermore, a guide pipe is fixed inside the guide hole at the upper end of the storage tank, and a tapered guide ring is fixed at the upper end of the guide pipe. The reducing agent is injected into the interior of the storage tank by setting the guide pipe and the guide ring.
[0011] Furthermore, the weighing barrel has two corresponding strip grooves inside, and limit blocks are slidably connected inside the strip grooves. The two limit blocks are fixed at the left and right ends of the circumference of the storage barrel, respectively. By setting the strip grooves and limit blocks, the rotation of the storage barrel can be effectively prevented.
[0012] Furthermore, a base plate is fixed to the lower side of the bracket, and the side of the base plate is provided with evenly distributed fixing holes, so as to fix the bracket by setting the base plate and fixing holes.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The feeding and replenishing device for this anode furnace smelting has the following advantages:
[0014] 1. By setting up a storage component to store the reducing agent required for anode furnace smelting, the external PLC controller automatically starts the solenoid valve to inject the reducing agent into the storage tank during feeding and replenishment. At this time, four weighing sensors will automatically detect the weight of the reducing agent. When the weight reaches the required value, the external PLC controller will automatically close the solenoid valve. In this way, the feeding can be completed without manual weighing, which initially improves the efficiency of reducing agent addition.
[0015] 2. By setting up a feeding component and a weighing component, after the reducing agent inside the storage tank is weighed, the external PLC controller automatically controls the electric telescopic rod to work. The electric telescopic rod moves the weighing tank and the storage tank downwards, allowing the lower end of the storage tank to be inserted into the filling port of the anode furnace. At this time, the external PLC controller automatically controls the motor to rotate the filter frame and the screw feeding rod. The rotation of the screw feeding rod automatically injects the reducing agent into the interior of the anode furnace. The entire process does not require manual handling, further improving the efficiency of reducing agent addition. Attached Figure Description

The weighing assembly 3 includes a fixed frame 31, an electric telescopic rod 32, a connecting frame 33, a weighing bucket 34, and a weighing sensor 35. The fixed frame 31 is fixed to the right side of the storage box 21. The electric telescopic rod 32 is installed on the lower side of the fixed frame 31. The connecting frame 33 is fixed to the telescopic arm of the electric telescopic rod 32. The weighing bucket 34 is fixed to the lower side of the connecting frame 33. Four phase sensors are installed inside the weighing bucket 34. The corresponding weighing sensor 35 is bidirectionally electrically connected to an external PLC controller. The input end of the electric telescopic rod 32 is electrically connected to the output end of the external PLC controller. The feeding assembly 4 includes a storage tank 41, a motor 42, a rotating shaft 43, a scraper frame 44, and a spiral feeding rod 45. The storage tank 41 is placed inside the weighing tank 34. The motor 42 is installed at the upper end of the storage tank 41. The rotating shaft 43 is fixed on the output shaft of the motor 42. The spiral feeding rod 45 is fixed at the lower end of the rotating shaft 43. The spiral feeding rod 45 fits against the lower end of the storage tank 41. The scraper frame 44 is fixed on the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 43. A guide hole is opened at the upper end of the storage tank 41. The guide hole corresponds to the discharge pipe 23. The input end of the motor 42 is electrically connected to the output end of the external PLC controller. The feeding assembly 4 is used for feeding. The weighing assembly 3 is used to weigh the reducing agent to be added. The storage assembly 2 is used to store the reducing agent required for anode furnace smelting.
[0024] Wherein: a guide pipe 5 is fixed inside the guide hole opened at the upper end of the storage tank 41, and a conical guide ring 6 is fixed at the upper end of the guide pipe 5. The reducing agent is injected into the interior of the storage tank 41 by setting the guide pipe 5 and the guide ring 6.
[0025] Specifically, the weighing barrel 34 has two corresponding strip grooves 7 inside, and the strip grooves 7 are slidably connected to limit blocks 8. The two limit blocks 8 are fixed at the left and right ends of the circumference of the storage barrel 41, respectively.

[0027] The working principle of the feeding and replenishing device for anode furnace smelting provided by this utility model is as follows: First, the base plate 9 is fixed by bolts through the fixing hole 10. After the base plate 9 is fixed, the storage tank 41 is positioned above the anode furnace and corresponds to the anode furnace inlet. Then, the reducing agent required for anode furnace smelting is injected into the storage tank 21 for storage. When feeding and replenishing, the user inputs the value of the reducing agent to be added into the external PLC controller. Then, the external PLC controller automatically starts the solenoid valve 24 to inject the reducing agent into the storage tank 41 through the discharge pipe 23. At this time, the four weighing sensors 35 will monitor the reducing agent inside the storage tank 41. The weight of the raw material is automatically detected. When the weight reaches the required value, the external PLC controller automatically closes the solenoid valve 24. Then, the external PLC controller automatically controls the electric telescopic rod 32 to work. The operation of the electric telescopic rod 32 causes the weighing bucket 34 and the storage bucket 41 to move downwards. In this case, the lower end of the storage bucket 41 can be inserted into the feeding port of the anode furnace. At this time, the external PLC controller automatically controls the motor 42 to work, causing the filter frame 44 and the screw feed rod 45 to rotate. The rotation of the screw feed rod 45 can automatically inject the reducing agent into the interior of the anode furnace. The whole process does not require manual handling, which improves the efficiency of reducing agent addition.
