Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of copper smelting production technology, specifically to a through-hole gap filling device for anode copper casting mold. Background Technology

[0002] The statements in this section are merely to provide background information related to the technical solutions of this application to aid understanding, and do not necessarily constitute prior art for the technical solutions of this application.

[0003] Copper metallurgical methods refer to the technological processes and methods used to obtain metallic copper from copper concentrate. Smelting methods for producing copper from copper concentrate are divided into two main categories: pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy. Currently, over 85% of refined copper production is recovered using pyrometallurgical methods from copper sulfide concentrate and recycled copper.

[0004] Pyrometallurgy refers to the method of extracting metallic copper by removing various impurity elements from copper concentrate using a metallurgical furnace at high temperatures. The pyrometallurgical process is generally divided into three stages: the first stage is matte smelting, which refines copper concentrate into copper matte (commonly known as matte) containing 40%-70% copper; the second stage is refining the copper matte into crude copper containing more than 98% copper; and the third stage is refining the crude copper into anode copper.

[0005] After crude copper is smelted in the anode furnace, it is cast into anode plates using an anode copper casting disc system. Anode plates are a crucial raw material for electrolytically refined copper, serving as the anode in the electrolytic cell. Electrolytically refined copper is a method of separating copper through electrolysis. The anode plates, acting as the anode in the electrolytic cell, dissolve and release copper ions during the electrolytic reaction, allowing for the recovery and reuse of these ions.

[0006] The casting system for anode plates includes an anode copper casting disc with multiple casting molds. Through holes are located inside each mold, and ejector pins are inserted into these holes. When the anode plate is demolded, the ejector pins are hydraulically lifted. A gap is provided between the ejector pins and the through holes to ensure smooth movement of the ejector pins. However, this gap can lead to leakage during casting, necessitating its filling. Existing gap-filling devices typically only fill individual casting molds, and the process is cumbersome, impacting anode plate production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0007] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a through-hole gap filling device for anodized copper casting molds. The device includes a support cavity, a front support frame, a mud storage tank, a mud pump, a nozzle fixing plate, a mud discharge nozzle, a connecting frame, a telescopic cylinder, an extrusion fixing plate, an extrusion component, a top plate, an extrusion cylinder, a stirring motor, and a stirring rod. The support cavity is fixed to one side of the anodized copper casting disc. The mud storage tank is placed inside the support cavity. The bottom of the mud storage tank is connected to the mud inlet of the mud pump, and the mud outlet of the mud pump is connected to the mud discharge nozzle. The stirring motor is fixed to the top of the support cavity and connected to the stirring rod, which is located inside the mud storage tank. A front support frame is fixed to the side of the support cavity near the anode copper casting disc. A top plate is fixed to the front support frame. An extrusion cylinder is vertically fixed to the top plate. The telescopic end of the extrusion cylinder passes through the top plate and connects to the extrusion fixing plate. Multiple extrusion components are fixed below the extrusion fixing plate. Each extrusion component corresponds to a casting mold on the anode copper casting disc. Telescopic cylinders are fixed to both sides of the support cavity. A connecting frame is fixed to the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder. A nozzle fixing plate is fixed to the connecting frame. Multiple mud discharge nozzles are fixed to the nozzle fixing plate. Each mud discharge nozzle corresponds to a casting mold on the anode copper casting disc.

[0008] In one embodiment, the support cavity is provided with a mud-diverting pipe, the mud pump is connected to the mud-diverting pipe through a pipeline, the mud-diverting pipe is provided with a plurality of mud outlets corresponding to a plurality of mud-discharging nozzles, and the mud outlets are connected to the mud-discharging nozzles through pipelines.

[0009] In one embodiment, the number of mud-discharging nozzles is the same as the number of extrusion components.

[0010] In one embodiment, a feed chute is provided above the mud storage tank.

[0011] In one embodiment, the extrusion member includes a fixed block, a pressure block, a slide rod, and a spring. The fixed block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the extrusion fixing plate. The pressure block is disposed below the fixed block. The slide rod is disposed on the pressure block. The slide rod can move up and down along the movable grooves on both sides of the fixed block. The spring is sleeved on the slide rod.

[0012] In one embodiment, a plurality of first guide rods are fixed on the extrusion fixing plate, and the plurality of first guide rods can move up and down along a plurality of first sliding sleeves provided in the top plate.

[0013] In one embodiment, the connecting frame is provided with a second guide rod, which can move along a second sliding sleeve provided on the support cavity.

[0014] In one embodiment, the extrusion fixing plate, the nozzle fixing plate, and the top plate are arc-shaped plate structures.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] In this solution, a telescopic cylinder moves the sludge nozzle above the casting mold of the anode copper casting disc to discharge sludge. After discharge, the nozzle leaves the anode copper casting disc. Then, a compression cylinder controls the extrusion component to descend and compress the sludge into the pores, completing the pore sealing. This sealing method is not only faster but also allows for the sealing of more casting molds at once, improving sealing efficiency. Furthermore, the extrusion component used in this solution is an elastic component, preventing damage to the anode copper casting disc below the casting mold from rigid compression.

[0026] A front support frame 2 is fixed to one side of the support cavity 1 near the anode copper casting disc 19. A top plate 12 is fixed to the front support frame 2, and a pressing cylinder 13 is vertically fixed to the top plate 12.

Telescopic cylinders 9 are fixed to both sides of the support cavity 1. A connecting frame 8 is fixed to the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 9. A nozzle fixing plate 6 is fixed to the connecting frame 8, and multiple mud-discharging nozzles 7 are fixed to the nozzle fixing plate 6. Each mud-discharging nozzle 7 corresponds to a casting mold 18 on the anode copper casting disc 19.

[0027] In one embodiment, the extrusion fixing plate 10, the nozzle fixing plate 6, and the top plate 12 are arc-shaped plate structures, which facilitates the rotation curvature of the anode copper casting disc 19.

[0028] In one embodiment, the number of mud-discharging nozzles 7 corresponds to the number of extrusion parts 11, and each extrusion and mud discharge completes one coordination.

[0029] In one embodiment, a plurality of first guide rods 14 are fixed on the compression fixing plate 10, and the plurality of first guide rods 14 can move up and down along a plurality of first sliding sleeves 15 provided in the top plate 12.

[0033] The working principle of this solution is as follows:

[0034] After the anode copper casting disc 19 completes its first cooling, the anode plate is lifted by a cylinder below the anode copper casting disc 19 and demolded. The anode plate enters the cooling tank for a second cooling. After demolding, the casting mold 18 enters the sealing process. After reaching the position of the device, the rotation stops, and then the telescopic cylinder 9 extends, so that the mud discharge nozzle 7 is positioned above the casting mold 18 and is aimed at the sealing gap below to discharge mud. After mud discharge is completed, the cylinder resets, and the extrusion cylinder 13 descends, so that the pressing block 11.2 of the extrusion component 11 enters the mud in the casting mold 18. After extrusion is completed, the extrusion cylinder 13 resets. The above actions are repeated until all gaps on the casting disc are sealed, and casting is restarted.
