Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of self-made tools for electrolytic aluminum production, specifically to a self-made aluminum electrolytic anode tray tooling. Background Technology

[0002] In the aluminum electrolysis production process, the transfer of new anodes and residual electrodes between the electrolysis workshop and the anode assembly workshop is generally accomplished using anode trays. Since the trays are responsible for holding and transporting the anodes, and need to be tilted to remove electrolyte spilled from the residual electrodes, the anode trays must possess sufficient mechanical strength to minimize deformation. In other words, the performance of the anode tray tooling has a significant impact on production efficiency and product quality.

[0003] In current technology, aluminum electrolytic anode trays are all cast. Although the strength meets the requirements and the mechanical strength is high, the weight is relatively heavy, the structure is relatively complex, and the precision is relatively low.

[0004] Based on the aforementioned shortcomings, our company has designed a new aluminum electrolysis anode tray, as follows: Figure 1 and 2 As shown, all materials are Q235B steel. Its structure consists of: Figure 8 is the bottom plate of the aluminum electrolytic anode tray, made of Q235B steel plate; Figure 1 is the left and right side plates of the aluminum electrolytic anode tray; Figure 3 is the front and rear side plates of the aluminum electrolytic anode tray, made of channel steel; the inner sides of the left and right side plates are inclined plates 2; the inner sides of the front and rear side plates are lined with straight plates 4, which are made of Q235B steel plate respectively; 1, 2, 3, and 4 form a recessed groove structure on the bottom plate 8; the inner cavity of the groove is divided into multiple separate spaces for accommodating aluminum electrolytic anodes by longitudinal partitions 5 and transverse partitions 6; the longitudinal partitions 5 and transverse partitions 6 are made of rectangular hollow Q235B steel plates; support frames 7 are set longitudinally along the lower edge of the bottom plate 8 for forklift loading and unloading; each support frame 7 is made of two symmetrical channel steels welded to the bottom of the bottom plate. All of the above are welded from structural steel. Such materials are readily available and relatively simple to manufacture. While ensuring mechanical strength, they can also achieve the effects of light weight, simple structure, convenient manufacturing, reduced cost, and high production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a self-made aluminum electrolytic anode tray tooling for manufacturing the aforementioned aluminum electrolytic anode tray, thereby realizing the processing and manufacturing of the aforementioned aluminum electrolytic anode tray, improving production efficiency, and reducing maintenance costs.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A self-made aluminum electrolysis anode tray fixture includes a tray fixture body. The tray fixture body has a horizontal upper plane. A front limiting block and a rear limiting plate are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the upper plane. A left limiting block and a right limiting block are respectively provided on the left and right sides. A transverse partition limiting block is provided in the middle along the horizontal direction. A longitudinal partition limiting block is provided in the middle along the vertical direction.

[0008] As an improvement to the above technical solution, the rear limiting plate is a long strip limiting plate; the front limiting block is a group of three blocks, which are arranged laterally; the left limiting block and the right limiting block are each a group of three blocks, which are arranged longitudinally; the transverse partition limiting blocks are in four groups, each group consisting of four subgroups, with two blocks in each subgroup, arranged separately; the longitudinal partition limiting blocks are in three groups, each group consisting of two blocks, arranged separately.

[0010] As an improvement to the above technical solution, the pallet fixture body is a plate-like structure, and longitudinal support ribs are provided at the bottom of the pallet fixture body. The longitudinal support ribs can effectively support the pallet fixture body, effectively enhancing the load-bearing capacity and stability of the pallet fixture; the longitudinal support ribs separate the pallet fixture body from the ground, forming an effective heat dissipation space, which can quickly dissipate welding heat during pallet manufacturing, and at the same time, the setting of the longitudinal support ribs can facilitate the movement of the pallet fixture body by forklift.

[0011] As an improvement to the above technical solution, the surface of the pallet fixture body is provided with a high-temperature resistant and corrosion-resistant protective layer. The protective layer is made of a high-temperature resistant and corrosion-resistant material coated on the surface of the pallet body, extending the service life of the fixture.

[0019] See Figure 3 As shown, this utility model provides a self-made aluminum electrolysis anode tray fixture, including a tray fixture body 104. The tray fixture body 104 has a horizontal upper plane. The upper plane is provided with a front limiting block 107 and a rear limiting plate 103 on the front and rear sides, respectively. A left limiting block 101 and a right limiting block 109 are provided on the left and right sides, respectively. A transverse partition limiting block 102 is provided in the middle along the transverse direction, and a longitudinal partition limiting block 105 is provided in the middle along the longitudinal direction.

[0020] The rear limiting plate 103 is a long strip limiting plate; the front limiting block 107 is a group of three blocks, which are arranged horizontally; the left limiting block 101 and the right limiting block 109 are each a group of three blocks, which are arranged vertically; the transverse partition limiting block 102 is a group of four blocks, each group of transverse partition limiting blocks 102 includes four subgroups, and each subgroup of transverse partition limiting blocks 102 has two blocks, which are arranged separately; the longitudinal partition limiting block 105 is a group of three blocks, each group of longitudinal partition limiting blocks 105 has two blocks, which are arranged separately.

[0021] In use, the components of the aluminum electrolytic anode tray are first cut to size. During welding, the rear limiting plate 103 positions the rear plate of the aluminum electrolytic anode tray, the front limiting block 107 positions the front plate of the aluminum electrolytic anode tray, and the left limiting block 101 and the right limiting block 109 position the left and right plates of the aluminum electrolytic anode tray, respectively. After spot welding, the front and rear plates 3 and the left and right plates 1 form the frame of the aluminum electrolytic anode tray. Then, straight plates 4 are placed inside the front and rear plates, and inclined plates 2 are placed on the left and right. They are spot welded to form a frame with an inner lining. Third, longitudinal partitions 5 and transverse partitions 6 are placed in the rectangular space formed by the frame.

[0023] The pallet fixture body 104 is made of aluminum alloy with a plate-like structure. Longitudinal support ribs 108 are provided at the bottom of the pallet fixture body 104. The longitudinal support ribs 108 effectively support the pallet fixture body 104, enhancing its load-bearing capacity and stability. The longitudinal support ribs 108 also separate the pallet fixture body from the ground, creating an effective heat dissipation space, allowing welding heat to dissipate quickly during pallet manufacturing. Furthermore, the longitudinal support ribs facilitate forklift movement of the pallet fixture body.
