Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of prebaked anode production technology, and in particular to a device for cleaning the burrs on green anodes. Background Technology

[0002] Green anodes refer to anodes that have not undergone high-temperature roasting after forming during the prebaked anode production process. Green anodes are made by mixing carbonaceous raw materials (such as calcined petroleum coke, residual anode material, etc.) with liquid asphalt, and then extruding or vibrating them. They possess a certain strength and density but have not yet undergone high-temperature roasting treatment at 1100 to 1200 degrees Celsius. During the green anode production process, there is a certain clearance between the bottom mold and the die, and between the die and the pressing mold of the vibration forming machine. This clearance forms protruding burrs (called rough edges) on the edges of the green anode surface. If these rough edges are not cleaned in time, it will affect the appearance qualification rate of the green anodes and easily cause slag shedding during the electrolysis process, affecting the quality of the electrolytic aluminum liquid. Therefore, roller conveyor workers need to manually clean the rough edges of each anode one by one using special rough edge cleaning tools. This process is labor-intensive and inefficient.

[0023] To make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment discloses a green anode burr cleaning device, including a conveying device 2 for conveying green anodes 1. The conveying device 2 has mounting brackets 3 distributed on both sides of the green anode 1. The end of the mounting bracket 3 facing the green anode 1 is rotatably connected to the middle of a cleaning arm 4. A cleaning component 5 is fixedly connected to the end of the cleaning arm 4 facing the green anode 1, and the cleaning component 5 tightly abuts against the sharp corner sidewall of the green anode 1. The end of the cleaning arm 4 away from the green anode 1 is connected to one end of an elastic mechanism 6, and the other end of the elastic mechanism 6 is connected to the end of the mounting bracket 3 away from the green anode 1. In this embodiment, the elastic mechanism 6 is a spring. The conveying device 2 is a conveying roller conveyor.

[0025] In this embodiment, the cleaning arm 4 and the green anode 1 are arranged at an acute angle in the horizontal direction, and the cleaning component 5 is located on the side of the cleaning arm 4 facing the direction of the green anode 1.

[0026] When the raw anode 1 comes into contact with the cleaning component 5 during the conveying process, the raw anode 1 squeezes the cleaning component 5 outward. Because the elastic mechanism 6 pulls the other end of the cleaning arm 4, and the mounting bracket 3 supports the rod of the cleaning arm 4, it acts as a lever, so that the cleaning component 5 is tightly attached to the edge surface of the raw anode 1. During the conveying process of the raw anode 1, the raw anode 1 and the cleaning component 5 move relative to each other, thereby cleaning away the burrs.

[0027] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a rotatably connected guide wheel 4-1 is provided at the end of the cleaning arm 4 facing the green anode 1, and the guide wheel 4-1 contacts the edge of the green anode 1. The cleaning assembly 5 includes a wire brush 5-1 and a cleaning brush 5-2, both of which are fixedly mounted on the cleaning arm 4. Both the wire brush 5-1 and the cleaning brush 5-2 are in close contact with the side wall of the green anode 1, and the wire brush 5-1 contacts the green anode 1 before the cleaning brush 5-2, and the cleaning brush 5-2 contacts the green anode 1 before the guide wheel 4-1. That is, with Figure 2As shown in the figure, the left side is the front of the conveyor for the raw anode 1. The guide wheel 4-1, cleaning brush 5-2, and wire brush 5-1 are arranged from left to right. When the raw anode 1 passes by, the harder wire brush 5-1 first scrapes off the rough edges, while the softer cleaning brush 5-2 is responsible for brushing off the rough edge debris stuck to the raw anode 1. The guide wheel 4-1 is placed on the corner of the raw anode 1 to guide the cleaning arm 4 and prevent the cleaning arm 4 from deviating in direction, so that the wire brush 5-1 and cleaning brush 5-2 always remain on the corner of the raw anode 1.

[0028] It should be noted that a suitable elastic mechanism 6, i.e., a spring, must be selected to ensure that during the conveying process of the green anode 1, the guide wheel 4-1 can be squeezed outward to contact the wire brush 5-1 and the cleaning brush 5-2, and that the elastic mechanism 6 can provide sufficient force to ensure that the wire brush 5-1 and the cleaning brush 5-2 can clean the burrs.

[0029] Mounting bracket 3 is mounted on fixed bracket 7, which is fixedly connected to both sides of conveying device 2. A reinforcing crossbeam 7-1 is mounted on fixed bracket 7, spanning above conveying device 2. The reinforcing crossbeam 7-1 is used to enhance the stability of fixed bracket 7.

[0030] In one embodiment, to achieve a rotatable connection between the end of the mounting bracket 3 facing the green anode 1 and the middle of the cleaning arm 4, a rotating shaft structure 3-1 is provided at the end of the mounting bracket 3 facing the green anode 1. The cleaning arm 4 is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 3 via the rotating shaft structure 3-1. The rotating shaft structure 3-1 includes a fixed shaft and a bushing, with the bushing rotatably connected to the fixed shaft. The fixed shaft is fixedly connected to the end of the mounting bracket 3 facing the green anode 1, and the bushing is fixedly connected to the cleaning arm 4, thereby achieving a rotatable connection between the cleaning arm 4 and the mounting bracket 3.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the working process of this utility model is as follows:

[0032] First, the device is installed on the conveyor rollers, i.e., the conveyor device 2. The raw anode 1 is transported by the conveyor device 2 to the mounting frame 3. After the raw anode 1 enters, it comes into contact with the wire brush 5-1 and the cleaning brush 5-2, and squeezes the guide wheel 4-1, the wire brush 5-1 and the cleaning brush 5-2 outward. At this time, the elastic mechanism 6 provides elastic force to pull the cleaning arm 4, and under the leverage of the mounting frame 3 supporting the cleaning arm 4, as the raw anode 1 moves continuously, the wire brush 5-1 and the cleaning brush 5-2 clean the burrs.

[0033] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model. Various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present utility model by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present utility model should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present utility model.
