Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conductive terminals, and more specifically, to an aluminum alloy conductive terminal structure for an electrolytic cell. Background Technology

[0002] An electrolytic cell consists of a cell body, an anode, and a cathode. Most electrolytic cells use a diaphragm to separate the anode and cathode chambers. Based on the electrolyte, they are classified into three types: aqueous solution electrolytic cells, molten salt electrolytic cells, and non-aqueous solution electrolytic cells. The wiring in the electrolytic cell is connected via terminals, which are used to connect wires and ensure smooth current transmission. In the electrolytic cell, terminals connect the power supply, load, and various control devices to form an electrical control circuit, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the electrolytic cell.

[0003] In some existing electrolytic cells, the conductive terminal connections are fixed with screws, and there is no protective structure on the outside. After prolonged use, dust may accumulate on the surface, and excessive dust at the screws and wire connectors may affect the current transmission efficiency, thus reducing the product's performance. Therefore, we propose an aluminum alloy conductive terminal structure for electrolytic cells. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides an aluminum alloy conductive terminal structure for an electrolytic cell, adopting the following technical solution:

[0005] An aluminum alloy conductive terminal structure for an electrolytic cell includes a housing. A groove is provided at the top of the housing, and multiple wiring areas arranged in a linear array are provided within the groove. A protective plate is hinged within the groove. Two symmetrically distributed inserts are fixedly installed at the bottom of the protective plate. A slot matching the insert on the same side is provided at the top of the housing. A receiving groove is provided on the inner wall of each of the two slots, and a fixing component is provided within each receiving groove. An ejection component is provided within each of the two slots. Multiple arc-shaped grooves arranged in a linear array are provided on the inner wall of the bottom of the protective plate and the bottom of the groove. A movable groove is provided on the inner wall of the opposite side of two corresponding arc-shaped grooves, and a clamping component is provided within each arc-shaped groove.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, when using the equipment, the operator places the equipment at the required installation location, then places the wiring inside the wiring area and secures it using the existing fastening structure. The protective plate is then flipped over so that its bottom fits against the inner wall of the groove, protecting the connection between the equipment and the wiring, helping to prevent dust adhesion and achieving a dustproof effect. When the protective plate and the inner wall of the groove are in contact, the insert at the bottom of the protective plate engages with the slot at the top of the housing. The slot contains a fixing component to secure the insert, thus securing the protective plate. Both the bottom of the protective plate and the inner wall of the groove have arc-shaped grooves to facilitate the passage of wiring, and clamping components within these grooves hold and secure the wiring, maintaining the stability of the wiring connection and preventing damage to the connection between the wiring and the equipment due to bending. When it is necessary to open the protective plate, the operator releases the fixing component from the insert. An ejector component within the slot ejects the insert, assisting in the removal of the protective plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the fixing component includes a fixing block that is slidably installed in the storage groove. A second spring is fixedly connected between the inner wall of the fixing block away from the same-side insertion block and the inner wall of the same-side storage groove. The side wall of the insertion block is provided with a fixing groove that matches the fixing block on the same side. A toggle rod is fixedly installed on the side of the two fixing blocks away from the groove. The end of the toggle rod away from the same-side fixing block penetrates the housing.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when the insert block slides into the slot on the same side, the insert block pushes the fixing block on the same side to slide into the storage groove on the same side. The fixing block squeezes the second spring on the same side. When the insert block engages with the slot on the same side, the fixing block returns to its original position under the elastic force of the second spring on the same side, and engages with the fixing groove opened on the side wall of the insert block on the same side, which can play the role of fixing the insert block, and thus play the role of fixing the protective plate. When it is necessary to open the protective plate, the operator pulls the fixing block into the storage groove on the same side by using the lever, so that the fixing block disengages from the fixing groove opened on the side wall of the insert block on the same side, and the protective plate can be flipped over again.

[0009] Furthermore, sliders are fixedly installed at the top and bottom of the two fixed blocks at the ends away from the same side of the insertion block, and the inner wall of the storage groove is provided with a groove that matches the slider on the same side.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the fixing block slides in the same side storage groove, the fixing block, along with the slider, slides in the same side sliding groove. The cooperation between the slider and the sliding groove helps to prevent the fixing block from leaving the same side storage groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the ejection assembly includes an ejection plate slidably installed in the slot, and two symmetrically distributed third springs are fixedly connected between the bottom end of the ejection plate and the inner wall of the bottom end of the slot on the same side.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the insert block slides into the slot on the same side, the insert block pushes the ejector plate to move to the bottom of the slot, and the ejector plate squeezes the third spring on the same side. When the insert block is released from its fixed position, the ejector plate pushes the insert block upward under the elastic force of the third spring on the same side, and then the insert block disengages from the slot on the same side, which plays a role in assisting in the disassembly of the protective plate and makes it easier for the staff to open the protective plate.

[0013] Furthermore, limit blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the two ejector plates, and limit grooves matching the limit blocks on the same side are opened on the inner walls of the two slots.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the ejector plate slides in the slot, the ejector plate, along with the limiting block, slides in the limiting groove on the same side. Through the cooperation of the limiting block and the limiting groove, the rising height of the ejector plate is limited, which helps to prevent the ejector plate from affecting the movement of the fixed block.

[0015] Furthermore, the clamping assembly includes a support rod slidably installed in the movable groove, with a first spring fixed between one end of the support rod and the inner wall of the movable groove on the opposite side, and a clamping plate fixedly installed at the end of the support rod away from the first spring on the same side.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the protective plate is attached to the inner wall of the bottom of the groove, the two corresponding arc grooves are aligned, which facilitates the passage of the line. Furthermore, through the cooperation of the first spring, the support rod and the clamping plate, the line is clamped and fixed, which helps to maintain the stability of the line during use.

[0017] Furthermore, two symmetrically distributed support blocks are fixedly installed on the side wall of the first spring end of the support rod, and the inner wall of the movable groove is provided with a support groove that matches the support block on the same side.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the support rod slides in the movable groove on the same side, the support rod and the support block slide in the support groove on the same side. Through the cooperation of the support block and the support groove, it is beneficial to maintain the stability of the support rod sliding and to help prevent the support rod from leaving the movable groove.

[0019] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0020] (1) In this utility model, the protective plate serves to prevent dust and protect the lines connected to the equipment. A clamping component is provided between the protective plate and the groove to clamp and position the lines, which helps to maintain the stability of the line splicing.

[0021] (2) In this utility model, the setting of the fixing component plays the role of fixing the insert block, thereby playing the role of fixing the protective plate, which is conducive to maintaining the stability of the fit between the protective plate and the shell.

[0031] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 The present invention will be described in further detail below.

[0032] Please see Figure 1-4 An aluminum alloy conductive terminal structure for an electrolytic cell includes a housing 1. The top of the housing 1 has a groove, and the groove has multiple wiring areas 4 arranged in a linear array. A protective plate 2 is hinged in the groove. Two symmetrically distributed inserts 5 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the protective plate 2. The top of the housing 1 has a slot 6 that matches the insert 5 on the same side. The inner walls of the two slots 6 are provided with a storage groove 14. Each storage groove 14 has a fixing component. The fixing component includes a fixing block 13 that is slidably installed in the storage groove 14. A second spring 11 is fixedly connected between the inner wall of the fixing block 13 away from the insert 5 and the inner wall of the opposite side of the storage groove 14. The side wall of the insert 5 has a fixing groove that matches the fixing block 13 on the same side. A toggle rod is fixedly installed on the side of the two fixing blocks 13 away from the groove. The end of the toggle rod away from the fixing block 13 on the same side passes through the housing 1.

[0033] When using the device, the operator places it at the desired installation location, then places the wiring inside the wiring area 4 and secures it using the existing fastening structure. Next, the protective plate 2 is flipped over so that its bottom fits against the inner wall of the groove bottom, protecting the connection between the device and the wiring and helping to prevent dust adhesion, thus achieving a dustproof effect. The insert 5 installed at the bottom of the protective plate 2 engages with the slot 6 opened at the top of the housing 1, initially stabilizing the protective plate 2. When the insert 5 slides into the slot 6 on the same side, it pushes the fixing block 13 on the same side into the receiving groove 1 on the same side. 4. Slide inward, fixing block 13 presses the second spring 11 on the same side. When the insert 5 engages with the slot 6 on the same side, fixing block 13 returns to its original position under the elastic force of the second spring 11 on the same side, and engages with the fixing groove opened on the side wall of the insert 5 on the same side, thus fixing the insert 5 and the protective plate 2. When the protective plate 2 needs to be opened, the operator pulls the fixing block 13 into the storage slot 14 on the same side by using the lever, so that the fixing block 13 disengages from the fixing groove opened on the side wall of the insert 5 on the same side, and the protective plate 2 can be flipped over again.

[0034] Two fixed blocks 13 are fixedly mounted with sliders at the top and bottom of the end away from the same side insertion block 5. The inner wall of the storage groove 14 is provided with a sliding groove that matches the slider on the same side. When the fixed block 13 slides in the same side storage groove 14, the fixed block 13 slides in the same side sliding groove with the slider. The cooperation between the slider and the sliding groove helps to prevent the fixed block 13 from falling out of the same side storage groove 14.

[0035] Both slots 6 are equipped with ejection assemblies, each including an ejection plate 12 slidably mounted within the slot 6. Two symmetrically distributed third springs 15 are fixedly connected between the bottom end of the ejection plate 12 and the inner wall of the bottom end of the slot 6 on the same side. Limiting blocks are fixedly mounted on both sides of the ejection plates 12. Limiting grooves matching the limiting blocks on the same side are formed on the inner walls of the two slots 6. When the insert block 5 slides into the slot 6 on the same side, the insert block 5 pushes the ejection plate 12 towards the bottom of the slot 6, and the ejection plate 12 compresses the third springs 15 on the same side. 5. When the insert block 5 is released from its fixed position, the ejector plate 12 pushes the insert block 5 upward under the elastic force of the third spring 15 on the same side. Then, the insert block 5 disengages from the slot 6 on the same side, which helps to disassemble the protective plate 2 and makes it easier for the staff to open the protective plate 2. When the ejector plate 12 slides in the slot 6, the ejector plate 12 slides in the limiting groove on the same side with the limiting block. Through the cooperation of the limiting block and the limiting groove, the rising height of the ejector plate 12 is limited, which helps to prevent the ejector plate 12 from affecting the movement of the fixed block 13.

[0036] Multiple arc-shaped grooves 3 arranged in a straight line array are provided on the inner wall of the bottom end of the protective plate 2 and the bottom end of the groove. On the opposite side of the inner wall of two corresponding arc-shaped grooves 3, there are movable grooves 9. A clamping assembly is provided in the arc-shaped groove 3. The clamping assembly includes a support rod 7 slidably installed in the movable groove 9. A first spring 10 is fixed between one end of the support rod 7 and the inner wall opposite to the movable groove 9 on the same side. A clamping plate 8 is fixedly installed on the end of the support rod 7 away from the first spring 10 on the same side. Two symmetrically distributed support blocks are fixedly installed on the side wall of the end of the support rod 7 close to the first spring 10 on the same side. The inner wall of the movable groove 9 is provided with a support groove that matches the support block on the same side.

[0037] When the protective plate 2 is in contact with the inner wall of the bottom of the groove, the corresponding two arc-shaped grooves 3 are aligned, which facilitates the passage of the line. The cooperation of the first spring 10, the support rod 7 and the clamping plate 8 plays a role in clamping and fixing the line, which helps to maintain the stability of the line. When the support rod 7 slides in the movable groove 9 on the same side, the support rod 7 slides in the support groove on the same side with the support block. The cooperation of the support block and the support groove helps to maintain the stability of the sliding of the support rod 7 and helps to prevent the support rod 7 from falling out of the movable groove 9.

[0038] The implementation principle of this utility model embodiment is as follows: When using the device, the operator places the device at the required installation location, then places the wire inside the wiring area 4 and fixes it using the existing fastening structure. Then, the protective plate 2 is flipped over so that the bottom of the protective plate 2 fits against the inner wall of the bottom of the groove, which serves to protect the connection between the device and the wire, helping to prevent dust adhesion and achieving a dustproof effect. When the protective plate 2 and the inner wall of the bottom of the groove fit together, the plug 5 installed at the bottom of the protective plate 2 engages with the slot 6 opened at the top of the housing 1. The slot 6 is provided with a fixing component, which serves to fix the plug 5, thereby fixing the protective plate 2. The bottom of the protective plate 2 and the inner wall of the bottom of the groove are both provided with arc-shaped grooves 3 to facilitate the passage of the wire. The arc-shaped grooves 3 are provided with clamping components, which serve to clamp and fix the wire, which helps to maintain the stability of the wire splicing and helps to prevent damage to the connection between the wire and the device due to bending. When it is necessary to open the protective plate 2, the operator releases the fixing component from fixing the plug 5. The slot 6 is provided with an ejection component, which can push out the plug 5, thus assisting in the disassembly of the protective plate 2.

[0039] The above are all preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of this utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
