Detailed Implementation
[0042] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will recognize that the described embodiments can be modified in various ways or combinations thereof without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings and description are illustrative in nature and not intended to limit the scope of the claims. Furthermore, in this specification, the drawings are not drawn to scale, and the same reference numerals denote the same parts.
[0043] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a detachable connection or a non-detachable connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. "Fixed connection" refers to a connection where the relative positional relationship remains unchanged after connection. "Rotary connection" refers to a connection where the components can rotate relative to each other after connection. The directional terms mentioned in the embodiments of this application, such as "upper," "lower," "front end," and "rear end," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are for better and clearer explanation and understanding of the embodiments of this application, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the embodiments of this application.
[0044] The metallurgical cooling device of this embodiment includes a chassis 5, which may be a cuboid. A moving mechanism is provided on its upper surface. The moving mechanism includes a placement plate 3, a moving roller 308, a mating roller 304, a placement groove, a loading basket 301, a support frame 302, an electric telescopic rod 303, a mating roller 304, a moving motor 305, a moving gear 306, and a mating through groove 307, all fixedly connected to the front end of the upper surface of the chassis 5. The placement plate 3 is fixed parallel to the upper surface of the chassis 5. The placement plate 3 may be installed on the upper surface of the chassis, or a section of the front end of the upper surface of the chassis may be used directly as the placement plate. The moving roller 308 and the mating roller 304 are respectively provided at the front and rear ends of the placement plate 3. Specifically, the moving roller 308 is provided at the front end of the placement plate 3, and the mating roller 304 is provided at the rear end of the placement plate 3, with the axes of the moving roller and the mating roller being parallel and spaced apart. The moving roller 308 may be motor-driven, thereby moving the metallurgical plate on the placement plate from the chassis to the front end.
[0045] A water tank 11 is also provided at the rear end of the placement plate 3, and the water tank 11 can be fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rear end of the placement plate 3. The water tank 11 is used to hold coolant, which is used to cool the metallurgical plate.
[0046] A placement groove is provided at the rear end of the water tank 11. The placement groove can be formed by a downward indentation on the upper surface of the casing 5, for example, the placement groove is a rectangular groove. A carrying basket 301 is provided in the placement groove. The carrying basket 301 is used to place metallurgical plates, which are laid flat in the carrying basket 301.
[0047] Specifically, the loading basket 301 has no baffle at the front end, but has baffles at the other three ends to constrain the position of the metallurgical plate within the loading basket 301. The front end of the loading basket 301 can receive the metallurgical plate and also transport it out from the front end.
[0048] A mating groove 307 is provided at the rear end of the upper surface of the carrying basket 301. The length of the mating groove 307 should be greater than or equal to the length of the mating roller 304, and the width of the mating groove 307 is preferably equal to the diameter of the mating roller 304. It can also be smaller than the diameter of the mating roller 304, but at least a portion of the cylinder of the mating roller 304 should be exposed therein. This allows the mating roller 304 to partially protrude from the mating groove 307 when the carrying basket 301 is placed on the placement plate 3, thereby lifting the metallurgical plate inside the carrying basket 301 and transferring the metallurgical plate out.
[0049] A support frame 302 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the carrying basket 301. For example, uprights are provided on opposite sides of the upper surface of the carrying basket 301, and the tops of the two uprights are connected by a crossbar. The uprights and the crossbar constitute the support frame 302. Of course, this is just an example, and it can also be set in other positions, as long as it is not set at the front end of the carrying basket 301. The support frame is a mechanism for supporting and driving the carrying basket 301 to move. Specifically, the upper end of the support frame 302 is fixedly connected to one end of the electric telescopic rod 303, and the other end of the electric telescopic rod 303 is fixedly connected to the moving motor 305. The output shaft of the moving motor 305 can be coaxially connected to the moving gear 306. The moving motor 305 can be a dual-shaft extension motor, with its output shafts at both ends coaxially connected to one moving gear 306. Of course, this application does not exclude the possibility of having only one output shaft, in which case it is only coaxially connected to one moving gear 306. Alternatively, two moving motors can be used to drive one moving gear respectively.
[0050] Multiple support columns 2 are fixedly connected around the chassis 5. A top plate 1 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support columns 2. The top plate 1 has a toothed groove 309. Specifically, the toothed groove can extend from the front end to the rear end. The moving gear 306 meshes with the toothed groove. Driven by the moving motor 305, the moving gear moves along the meshing toothed groove, thereby driving the carrying basket 301 to move between the front end and the rear end.
[0051] To support the moving mechanism and the electric telescopic rod, the toothed groove can be a strip-shaped groove extending from the front end to the rear end on both sides of the top plate 1. The toothed groove is machined on the upper surface of the strip-shaped groove, and the moving gear 306 is mounted on the toothed groove on the upper surface of the strip-shaped groove. While meshing with the moving gear, the toothed groove 309 also bears the weight of the moving mechanism, the electric telescopic rod, and the cargo basket 301.
[0052] Furthermore, the number of tooth slots is consistent with the number of moving gears 306. For example, if the moving motor is a dual-shaft extension motor, it has two moving gears 306, and therefore two tooth slots are provided. Similarly, if two single-shaft extension motors are used, two tooth slots are also provided. If a single-shaft extension motor is used, it has one moving gear 306, and therefore one tooth slot is provided. It should be noted that the moving gear 306 can be connected to the output shaft of the moving motor through welding, fasteners, or other methods. It is also possible that it can be integrally formed, i.e., the teeth are directly machined onto the output shaft.
[0053] In some embodiments, a horizontally oriented placement roller is provided at the front end of the upper surface of the placement groove. This placement roller facilitates the sliding and rolling of the metallurgical plate into the carrying basket 301 when the metallurgical plate is placed on it. It should be noted that the placement roller is not powered but rolls passively.
[0054] When the metallurgical plate is placed into the carrying basket 301, the friction between the metallurgical plate and the placement roller causes the placement roller to roll, making it easier for the metallurgical plate to slide into the carrying basket. Then, the electric telescopic rod 303 retracts, causing the carrying basket 301 to rise, thus lifting the metallurgical plate. The moving motor 305 then operates, causing the moving gear 306 to move along its tooth groove towards the water tank. Once it reaches above the water tank 11, the electric telescopic rod 303 extends, placing the metallurgical plate into the water tank 11 for cooling. After cooling, the electric telescopic rod 303 retracts again, lifting the metallurgical plate, and then the moving motor 305 drives it forward to move above the placement plate 3. The electric telescopic rod 303 then extends, lowering the carrying basket 301. By engaging the roller and the slot, that is, by having part of the roller protruding from the slot, the metallurgical plate is lifted up and moved forward by the rolling of the roller, moving out of the device along the moving roller. Then, the electric telescopic rod can retract to put away the basket and return it to the placement slot.
[0055] A cooling mechanism is provided on the lower surface of the water tank 11. The cooling mechanism includes a heat-conducting plate 703 extending downward from the bottom of the water tank. Multiple honeycomb heat dissipation plates 705 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the heat-conducting plate. A base plate 10 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the inner wall of the chassis. Fixing posts 9 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the upper surface of the base plate, and supporting feet 6 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower surface of the base plate. The supporting feet and fixing posts are used to connect the base plate 10 and the chassis 5, and the chassis 5 can be supported by the supporting feet 6 and fixing posts 9.
[0056] Multiple fan housings 704 are fixedly connected to the center of the upper surface of the base plate 10. The cooling mechanism also includes fan blades 7013 and a fan motor 7014. The fan motor 7014 is fixedly connected to the center of the inner top surface of the fan housing 704, and the fan blades 7013 are fixedly connected to the output end of the fan motor 7014. The heat-conducting plate can conduct heat from the water tank and introduce it into the honeycomb heat dissipation plate, and then extract the heat through the fan housings and fan blades.
[0057] A circulation tank 709 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the outer wall at the rear end of the water tank, and the water tank and the circulation tank are internally connected. A water pump 7011 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom surface of the circulation tank 709. The inlet of the water pump 7011 is connected to a first water outlet conduit 7010, which is located inside the circulation tank 709. The outlet of the water pump is connected to a second water outlet conduit 7012. Multiple heat dissipation pipes 706 are fixedly connected to the end of the second water outlet conduit 7012 away from the water pump. The end of each heat dissipation pipe 706 away from the circulation tank 709 is connected to a cooling tank 702, through which water from the circulation tank is introduced into the cooling tank 702. A water inlet pump 708 is fixedly connected to one inner wall of the cooling tank 702. The output end of the water inlet pump 708 is fixedly connected to an inlet conduit 707, which is connected to the water tank 11. Water from the cooling tank is then introduced into the water tank via the water inlet pump.
[0058] Hot water in the circulation tank is pumped into the second outlet pipe 7012 through the outlet pump 7011 and the first outlet pipe 7010. Then, the water in the second outlet pipe 7012 flows into the heat dissipation pipe 706 and then into the cooling tank 702 through the heat dissipation pipe 706. The cooled water is then pumped back into the water tank 11 through the inlet pipe 707 by the inlet pump 708. At the same time, the heat conduction plate will also conduct the heat of the water out and introduce it into the honeycomb heat dissipation plate. The heat is extracted by the fan housing and fan blades. One inner wall of the water tank is fixedly connected to the inlet pipe, and the inner wall of the water tank away from the inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the drain port 12, through which the water in the water tank can be discharged.
[0059] The upper surface of the chassis is provided with a front movable plate 4 and a rear movable plate 8 on both sides. The front movable plate 4 and the rear movable plate 8 are sliding doors, which can be used to observe the operation of the equipment. The lower part of the middle of the outer wall of both sides of the chassis 5 is provided with a heat dissipation window 7. The upper part of the outer wall of one side of the chassis 5 is provided with a water meter 13, which can control the water volume of the water tank 11. The inner wall of one side of the loading basket 301 is provided with a first locator 14. After the material is in place, the first locator 14 transmits a signal to the existing equipment PLC controller to proceed to the next process. The inner wall of the placement slot is provided with a second locator. When the loading basket is in place, the loading basket 301 is positioned by transmitting a signal to the existing equipment PLC controller.
[0060] The metallurgical plate is placed into the carrying basket by the placement roller. Then, the metallurgical plate is lifted by the support frame and the electric telescopic rod. It is moved along the tooth groove by the moving motor and the moving gear. After moving to a certain position, the metallurgical plate is placed into the water tank for cooling. After cooling, the metallurgical plate is lifted again by the electric telescopic rod and then moved to the placement plate. Through the cooperation of the roller and the through groove, the metallurgical plate is lifted and pushed forward, and moved out of the device along the moving roller. Then, the electric telescopic rod retracts the carrying basket and returns it to the placement groove through the second positioner.
[0061] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
