DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical scheme of the utility model, and cannot limit the protection scope of the utility model.

[0035] Figure 1 is the three-dimensional structure schematic diagram of the pushing device for large-specification titanium alloy electrode block in the embodiment of the utility model, Figure 2 is one of the main view structure schematic diagram of the pushing device for large-specification titanium alloy electrode block in the embodiment of the utility model, Figure 3 is the main view structure schematic diagram of the pushing device for large-specification titanium alloy electrode block in the embodiment of the utility model, Figure 4 is the side view structure schematic diagram of the pushing device for large-specification titanium alloy electrode block in the embodiment of the utility model, Figure 5 is the overhead structure schematic diagram of the pushing device for large-specification titanium alloy electrode block in the embodiment of the utility model, such as Figures 1 to 5As shown, the application provides a pushing device for large-size titanium alloy electrode blocks, which comprises a pushing platform 1, a base 2, a lifting assembly 3 and a pushing assembly 4. The pushing platform 1 is used to carry the electrode blocks 12 pressed by the press, and the base 2 is provided with a first cross beam 21 and a second cross beam 22. The lifting assembly 3 comprises a first support 31, a first motor 32, a first lead screw 33 and a first nut 34. The first motor 32 is arranged on the first cross beam 21. One end of the first lead screw 33 is connected with the output shaft of the first motor 32, and the other end of the first lead screw 33 is rotationally connected with the second cross beam 22. The first nut 34 is movably connected with the first lead screw 33 and fixedly connected with the first support 31, so as to drive the first support 31 to ascend and descend along the vertical direction. The pushing assembly 4 comprises a second motor 41, a second lead screw 42, a second nut 43 and a pushing mechanism 44. The first support 31 is provided with a third cross beam, and the second motor 41 is arranged on the third cross beam. One end of the second lead screw 42 is connected with the output shaft of the second motor 41, and the other end of the second lead screw 42 is rotationally connected with the first support 31. The second nut 43 is movably connected with the second lead screw 42 and fixedly connected with the pushing mechanism 44, so as to drive the pushing mechanism 44 to move along the horizontal direction. The pushing mechanism 44 is used to push the electrode blocks 12 to move along the horizontal direction to a stacking platform.

[0036] The pushing device for large-size titanium alloy electrode blocks provided by the application is used when the electrode blocks 12 pressed by the press are located on the pushing platform 1. The first motor 32 drives the first lead screw 33 to rotate, so that the first nut 34 drives the first support 31 to ascend along the vertical direction. The second motor 41 drives the second lead screw 42 to rotate, so that the second nut 43 drives the pushing mechanism 44 to move along the horizontal direction above the electrode blocks 12. The first motor 32 drives the first lead screw 33 to reverse, so that the first nut 34 drives the first support 31 to descend along the vertical direction to the electrode blocks 12. The second motor 41 drives the second lead screw 42 to reverse, and the second nut 43 drives the pushing mechanism 44 to move towards the stacking platform, so that the pushing mechanism 44 pushes the electrode blocks 12 to move along the horizontal direction to the stacking platform, and the splicing of the consumable electrode is completed. Compared with the prior art, the pushing device for large-size titanium alloy electrode blocks has the advantages of simple structure, low probability of electrode block 12 deviation, high speed, high use efficiency, low cost and low maintenance cost.

[0037] It should be noted that the pushing device of the application can be adapted to push large-size electrode blocks 12 with a length of 400-600 mm, a height of 100-300 mm and a weight of 100-200 kg, thereby solving the problem of difficult manual carrying. The electrode blocks 12 can be circular, square or the like.

[0038] In some embodiments, the horizontal travel of the pushing mechanism 44 is equal to the horizontal length of the electrode block 12. When the electrode block 12, pressed by the press, is located on the pushing platform 1, the first motor 32 drives the first lead screw 33 to rotate, so that the first nut 34 drives the first support 31 to rise vertically. The second motor 41 drives the second lead screw 42 to rotate, so that the second nut 43 drives the pushing mechanism 44 to move horizontally. Specifically, it moves from the stacking platform towards the electrode block 12, that is, from one side of the electrode block 12 in the horizontal direction to the other side of the electrode block 12. Since the horizontal travel of the pushing mechanism 44 is equal to the horizontal length of the electrode block 12, the second nut 43 can drive the pushing mechanism 44 to move precisely to the other side of the electrode block 12, ensuring that the pushing mechanism 44 can push the electrode block 12 from the side of the electrode block 12 to move horizontally to the stacking platform, completing the splicing of the consumable electrode.

[0039] Figure 6 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the pusher component 4 in an embodiment of this utility model. Figure 7 This is a front view schematic diagram of the pusher component 4 in an embodiment of this utility model. Figure 8 This is a top view of the pusher assembly 4 in an embodiment of this utility model. Figure 9 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the pushing mechanism 44 in an embodiment of this utility model, as shown below. Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the pushing mechanism 44 includes a connecting plate 45 and multiple pushing plates 46. The second nut 43 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 45, and the multiple pushing plates 46 are spaced apart along the length of the connecting plate 45. The predetermined distance between two adjacent pushing plates 46 is equal to the length of the electrode block 12 in the horizontal direction.

[0040] First, when the electrode block 12 pressed by the press is located on the pushing platform 1, the first motor 32 drives the first lead screw 33 to rotate, so that the first nut 34 drives the first bracket 31 to rise vertically. The second motor 41 drives the second lead screw 42 to rotate, so that the second nut 43 drives the connecting plate 45 to move from the stacking platform toward the electrode block 12. The pushing plate 46, which is closest to the electrode block 12, is located on the side of the electrode block 12 away from the stacking platform. The first motor 32 drives the first lead screw 33 to reverse, so that the first nut 34 drives the first bracket 31 to descend vertically toward the electrode block 12. The second motor 41 drives the second lead screw 42 to reverse, and the second nut 43 drives the pushing plate 46, which is closest to the electrode block 12, to move toward the stacking platform. The first movement stroke is the length of the electrode block 12 in the horizontal direction.

[0041] Then, the first motor 32 drives the first screw rod 33 to rotate again, so that the first nut 34 drives the first support 31 to rise in the vertical direction. The second motor 41 drives the second screw rod 42 to rotate again, so that the second nut 43 drives the connecting plate 45 to move from the stacking platform to the direction of the electrode block 12. The pushing plate 46 located on the side of the stacking direction and farthest from the electrode block 12 moves to the side of the side surface of the electrode block 12 away from the stacking platform. The first motor 32 drives the first screw rod 33 to rotate reversely, so that the first nut 34 drives the first support 31 to descend to the electrode block 12 in the vertical direction again. The second motor 41 drives the second screw rod 42 to rotate reversely, and the second nut 43 drives the pushing plate 46 to move towards the stacking platform, and the second moving stroke is still the length of the electrode block 12 in the horizontal direction.

[0042] The above process is repeatedly performed, and the multiple pushing plates 46 alternately push the electrode block 12 to move towards the stacking platform until the electrode block 12 moves to the stacking platform in the horizontal direction, and the splicing of the consumable electrode is completed.

[0043] In some embodiments, the pushing plate 46 includes a first pushing plate 47 and a second pushing plate 48, the top of the first pushing plate 47 is fixedly connected with the connecting plate 45, and the side surface of the first pushing plate 47 is detachably connected with the second pushing plate 48.

[0044] When the height of the electrode block 12 changes, the first nut 34 drives the first support 31 to descend to the lower limit in the vertical direction, and the first pushing plate 47 cannot push the electrode block 12 to move in the horizontal direction when the first pushing plate 47 still does not abut against the side surface of the electrode block 12 away from the stacking platform. At this time, the first pushing plate 47 is connected with the second pushing plate 48, the vertical downward length of the pushing mechanism 44 is extended, so that the second pushing plate 48 abuts against the side surface of the electrode block 12 away from the stacking platform, and pushes the electrode block 12 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0045] In some embodiments, the side surface of the first pushing plate 47 is provided with a positioning hole 49 in the vertical direction, and the positioning hole 49 is used for connecting with the second pushing plate 48, so as to adjust the height of the second pushing plate 48 in the vertical direction. According to the different heights of the electrode block 12, the second pushing plate 48 slides along the positioning hole 49 to adjust the height of the second pushing plate 48 in the vertical direction, so as to ensure that the second pushing plate 48 abuts against the side surface of the electrode block 12 away from the stacking platform, and pushes the electrode block 12 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0046] In some embodiments, the first support 31 is provided with a second sliding rail in the horizontal direction, and the connecting plate 45 is further slidably connected with the second sliding rail through a second sliding block.

[0047] When the electrode block 12 pressed by the press is located on the pushing platform 1, the first motor 32 drives the first screw rod 33 to rotate, so that the first nut 34 drives the first support 31 to ascend along the vertical direction. The second motor 41 drives the second screw rod 42 to rotate, and the connecting plate 45 moves along the second sliding rail from the stacking platform to the electrode block 12 through the second sliding block. The pushing plate 46 closest to the electrode block 12 is located on the side of the electrode block 12 away from the stacking platform. The first motor 32 drives the first screw rod 33 to reverse, so that the first nut 34 drives the first support 31 to descend along the vertical direction to the electrode block 12. The second motor 41 drives the second screw rod 42 to reverse, and the connecting plate 45 moves along the second sliding rail towards the stacking platform through the second sliding block. The second sliding rail is arranged to improve the stability of the movement of the connecting plate 45. Two second sliding rails can also be arranged symmetrically along the horizontal direction to further improve the stability of the movement of the connecting plate 45, reduce mechanical vibration, and prolong the service life of the equipment.

[0048] In some embodiments, the ascending and descending stroke of the first support 31 along the vertical direction is equal to the height of the electrode block 12 along the vertical direction. When the electrode block 12 pressed by the press is located on the pushing platform 1, the first motor 32 drives the first screw rod 33 to rotate, so that the first nut 34 drives the first support 31 to ascend along the vertical direction. Since the ascending and descending stroke of the first support 31 along the vertical direction is equal to the height of the electrode block 12 along the vertical direction, on the one hand, it ensures that the pushing mechanism 44 can move to the other side of the electrode block 12, and ensures that the pushing mechanism 44 can push the electrode block 12 along the horizontal direction from the side of the electrode block 12 to the stacking platform, completing the splicing of the consumable electrode. On the other hand, the vertical movement stroke is shortened, and the pushing efficiency is improved.

[0049] In some embodiments, the base 2 is further provided with a first sliding rail along the vertical direction, and the first support 31 is further connected with the first sliding rail through a first sliding block. When the electrode block 12 pressed by the press is located on the pushing platform 1, the first motor 32 drives the first screw rod 33 to rotate, so that the first support 31 ascends along the vertical direction through the first sliding block. The second motor 41 drives the second screw rod 42 to rotate, so that the second nut 43 drives the connecting plate 45 to move from the stacking platform to the electrode block 12. The pushing plate 46 closest to the electrode block 12 is located on the side of the electrode block 12 away from the stacking platform. The first motor 32 drives the first screw rod 33 to reverse, so that the first support 31 descends along the vertical direction to the electrode block 12 through the first sliding block. The first sliding rail is arranged to improve the stability of the movement of the first support 31. Two first sliding rails can also be arranged symmetrically along the vertical direction to further improve the stability of the movement of the first support 31.

[0050] In some embodiments, the second motor 41 and the second lead screw 42 are arranged in a vertical direction, and the output shaft of the second motor 41 is connected to the second lead screw 42 via a belt. Because the second motor 41 and the second lead screw 42 are arranged in a vertical direction, the length of the fixing device in the horizontal direction is reduced, thereby reducing the space occupied by the fixing device.

[0051] Figure 10 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the pushing platform 1 in this embodiment of the present invention. Figure 11 This is a front view structural diagram of the pushing platform 1 in this embodiment of the utility model. Figure 12 This is a top view of the pusher platform 1 in an embodiment of this utility model, as shown below. Figures 10 to 12 As shown, the feeding platform 1 is provided with multiple parallel support rollers 11, which are used to support the electrode blocks 12. When the electrode blocks 12 pressed by the press are located on the feeding platform 1, the friction between the feeding platform 1 and the electrode blocks 12 is reduced due to the multiple parallel support rollers 11 supporting the electrode blocks 12, which makes the feeding mechanism 44 push the electrode blocks 12 to move to the stacking platform more smoothly.

[0052] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
