Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of crucible trimming technology, and in particular to a crucible trimming device. Background Technology
[0002] Graphite crucibles have good thermal conductivity and high temperature resistance. During high-temperature use, they have a small coefficient of thermal expansion and a certain resistance to strain from rapid heating and cooling. They also have strong resistance to corrosion from acid and alkaline solutions and excellent chemical stability. After repeated use, small cracks may appear on the edge or rim of the graphite crucible.
[0003] Existing technologies have the following problems:
[0004] When repairing the edges of existing crucibles, the graphite crucible is usually cleaned manually before repair to ensure that there is no oil or impurities. Then, high-temperature glue is evenly applied to the crack and left to cure naturally. This manual operation is not only tedious and laborious, but also affects the efficiency of edge repair.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1-4 A crucible trimming device includes a support frame 1 and a crucible 5. First drive motors 2 are equidistantly arranged on the support frame 1, and rotating rods 3 are mounted on the output ends of multiple first drive motors 2. Support seats 4 are mounted on one end of each rotating rod 3. A support plate 11 is fixed to the support seat 4, and a guide rod 12 is provided through the surface of the support plate 11. A wedge block 14 is mounted on one end of the guide rod 12, and a limiting plate 13 is mounted on the other end of the guide rod 12. A spring 15 is sleeved between the limiting plate 13 and the support plate 11 on the outside of the guide rod 12. An electric push rod 7 is mounted on the bottom surface of the support frame 1 via a bracket, and a support frame 8 is mounted on the telescopic end of the electric push rod 7. A second drive motor 9 is mounted on one end of the support frame 8, and a cleaning roller 10 is mounted on the output end of the second drive motor 9. A glue applicator 6 is provided on the bottom surface of the support frame 1 opposite to the cleaning roller 10. The wedge block 14 is used in conjunction with the crucible 5.
[0027] In use, the worker places the crucible 5 of the corresponding size between the cleaning roller 10 and the glue applicator 6, ensuring that both the cleaning roller 10 and the glue applicator 6 are aligned with the opening edge of the crucible 5. Since the opening diameter of the crucible 5 is larger than the diameter of its bottom, the wedge block 14 allows the glue to enter the crucible 5 through its opening and clamp the inner wall of the crucible 5. Then, the first drive motor 2 is started, driving the crucible 5 to rotate. During the rotation of the crucible 5, the second drive motor 9 drives the cleaning roller 10 to rotate, thus cleaning the crucible. The rim of crucible 5 is cleaned, and then glue applicator 6 applies glue to the rim of crucible 5. This process is repeated to achieve a streamlined edge trimming process for the rim of crucible 5. By setting up multiple trimming stations, multiple crucibles 5 can be trimmed simultaneously, improving the efficiency of edge trimming. At the same time, cleaning and glue application do not require manual intervention, greatly reducing the workload of workers. It is highly practical and worth promoting. The first drive motor 2 drives the rotating rod 3 to rotate, which can make the crucible 5 rotate accordingly, so that cleaning and glue application can be completed during the rotation process.
[0028] In this embodiment: the cleaning roller 10 and the glue applicator 6 are both used in conjunction with the edge of the crucible 5.
[0029] Specifically, it can clean and apply adhesive to the rim of crucible 5, ensuring the edge trimming effect of crucible 5 and reducing labor costs.
[0030] In this implementation scheme: the first drive motor 2, the second drive motor 9, and the electric push rod 7 are all connected to an external power source via wires.
[0031] Specifically, the first drive motor 2, the second drive motor 9, and the electric actuator 7 can be connected to municipal or industrial power for operation, which is a common circuit connection structure, and will not be described in detail here.
[0032] In this embodiment, multiple wedge blocks 14 are provided, and the multiple wedge blocks 14 are arranged in a ring array on the outside of the support base 4.
[0033] Specifically, this ensures the effective clamping of crucible 5 and improves the stability of the crucible 5 during the edge trimming process.
[0034] In this embodiment, the guide rods 12 are symmetrically distributed on the surface of the support plate 11.
[0035] Specifically, when clamping crucible 5, the force is more evenly distributed, reducing the risk of crucible 5 breaking.
[0036] In this embodiment, the surface of the support plate 11 is provided with through holes that cooperate with the guide rod 12.
[0037] Specifically, this ensures that the guide rod 12 can slide on the surface of the support plate 11.
[0038] In this embodiment, the diameter of the limiting plate 13 is larger than the diameter of the guide rod 12.
[0039] Specifically, it serves as a limit to prevent the wedge block 14 from falling off the support plate 11.
[0040] Working principle: During use, the worker places the crucible 5 of the corresponding size between the cleaning roller 10 and the glue applicator 6, ensuring that both the cleaning roller 10 and the glue applicator 6 are aligned with the opening edge of the crucible 5. Since the opening diameter of the crucible 5 is larger than the diameter of its bottom, with the cooperation of the wedge block 14, the glue can enter the crucible 5 through its opening and clamp and fix its inner wall. Then, the first drive motor 2 is started, driving the crucible 5 to rotate. During the rotation of the crucible 5, the second drive motor 9 drives the cleaning roller 10 to rotate, enabling... The rim of crucible 5 is cleaned, and then glue applicator 6 applies glue to the rim of crucible 5. This process is repeated to achieve a streamlined edge trimming process for the rim of crucible 5. By setting up multiple trimming stations, multiple crucibles 5 can be trimmed simultaneously, improving the efficiency of the edge trimming process. At the same time, cleaning and glue application do not require manual intervention, greatly reducing the workload of workers. It is highly practical and worth promoting. The first drive motor 2 drives the rotating rod 3 to rotate, which can make the crucible 5 rotate accordingly, so that cleaning and glue application can be completed during the rotation process.
[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
