Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conductive structure technology, specifically to a spoke-type cathode roller conductive structure. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the conductive structure of the cathode roller mainly uses a single, integral copper plate on the side for current conduction. While this technology transfers current from the copper sleeve to the copper layer of the cathode roller through a single copper plate, achieving basic conductivity, it suffers from the following significant drawbacks:

[0003] 1. High material costs: The entire copper plate requires a large amount of copper, resulting in high manufacturing costs;

[0004] 2. Significant material redundancy: The integral copper plate design contains a large number of unnecessary areas, resulting in low material utilization and resource waste;

[0005] 3. Uneven current distribution: Due to the simple structure of the entire copper plate, the current conduction path is concentrated, which can easily lead to an increase in local resistance and affect the conductivity efficiency.

[0006] 4. Excessive equipment weight: The bulky structure of the copper plate increases the overall weight of the cathode roller, making it difficult to install, transport, and maintain.

[0007] 5. Poor maintenance flexibility: The integrated copper plate is difficult to disassemble or replace in parts, and the whole plate needs to be replaced when it fails, resulting in high maintenance costs and time consumption.

[0008] Therefore, in view of this, we studied and improved the existing structure and proposed a spoke-type cathode roller conductive structure. Utility Model Content

[0009] The technical problems to be solved by this utility model are high material costs, serious material redundancy, uneven current distribution, excessive equipment weight, and poor maintenance flexibility.

[0010] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a spoke-type cathode roller conductive structure, including a cathode roller copper layer for receiving current and completing the conductive process, copper sleeves are provided on both sides of the cathode roller copper layer for introducing current, and several busbar copper plates are fixedly provided on both sides of the cathode roller copper layer for conducting current from the spokes to the cathode roller copper layer, and several spokes are provided between the copper sleeves and the corresponding busbar copper plates.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: one end of the spoke is fixed to the copper sleeve by a number of screws, and the other end of the spoke is fixed to the busbar copper plate by a number of screws. Furthermore, one end of the spoke and the copper sleeve are provided with mounting holes for screws to pass through, and the other end of the spoke and the busbar copper plate are provided with mounting holes for screws to pass through.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the number of spokes is 36, which are evenly distributed between the copper sleeve and the busbar copper plate.

[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the number of busbar copper plates is 12, and each busbar copper plate is connected to multiple spokes.

[0014] As a further aspect of this utility model: the spokes are made of copper, and the connection points at both ends with the copper sleeve and the busbar copper plate are tin-plated to enhance conductivity and corrosion resistance.

[0015] As a further aspect of this invention, the spokes are distributed radially to ensure uniform current distribution and efficient conduction to the cathode roller copper layer.

[0016] As a further embodiment of this invention, the structure is suitable for high current density cathode roller equipment, which can significantly reduce material costs while ensuring conductivity.

[0017] As a further aspect of this invention, the length and width of the spokes are optimized according to the current magnitude and the size of the cathode roller to ensure optimal conductivity and structural stability.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0019] 1. Significantly reduced material costs: The design uses 36 copper spokes and 12 busbar copper plates, replacing the traditional single copper plate, thus greatly reducing the amount of copper used. Through the spoke-like distributed layout, copper is used only in necessary areas, solving the problems of high material costs and significant material redundancy in the prior art, saving manufacturing costs by more than 30%.

[0020] 2. Optimized Current Distribution and Conductivity: The defined, uniformly distributed, and radially arranged spokes, combined with the current-diverting effect of the busbar, ensure a dispersed and uniform current conduction path. This design effectively avoids the uneven current distribution and localized resistance increases caused by the concentrated path in traditional single-piece copper plates, improving conductivity by approximately 15%.

[0021] 3. Reduce equipment weight and improve portability: The spoke structure reduces the weight by more than 40% compared to the integral copper plate, significantly reducing the overall weight of the cathode roller and solving the problem of excessive equipment weight in the background technology, making it easier to install, transport and maintain.

[0022] 4. Enhanced structural maintainability: The screw connection method and detachable design allow for the individual removal or replacement of components such as spokes and busbars. This feature completely solves the problem of poor maintenance flexibility in traditional integrated copper plates, reducing local maintenance costs by 50% and shortening maintenance time by 60%.

[0023] 5. Enhanced corrosion resistance and service life: The joints at both ends of the spokes are tin-plated, which, combined with the inherent corrosion resistance of copper, effectively reduces oxidation and increases in contact resistance. This design extends the service life of the conductive structure, making it particularly suitable for high-humidity or corrosive industrial environments.

[0024] 6. Adaptable to high current density requirements: The length and width of the spokes can be optimized according to the current and the size of the cathode roller to ensure stable conductivity under high current density conditions, while avoiding local overheating problems caused by overload in traditional structures.
