Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cleaning equipment, in particular to a cleaning device for electrolytic cell conductive copper bars. BACKGROUND
[0002] During electrolysis, acid mist is generated in the electrolytic cell due to electrolysis and high temperature. The traditional wind cover covers the entire electrolytic cell including the conductive copper bars. The acid mist generated during electrolysis falls on the electrolytic copper bars and corrodes the conductive copper bars, thereby reducing the electrolysis efficiency. Even if a special wind cover is used to adsorb and guide the acid mist, the acid mist will still fall on the conductive copper bars due to the gaps between the electrode plates and the conductive copper bars. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0004] The present application discloses a cleaning device for electrolytic cell conductive copper bars, which comprises a conductive copper bar and a protective cover. The upper surface of the conductive copper bar is provided with a copper bar column. The protective cover is a plate provided with a column groove matched with the copper bar column on one side. A protection groove is formed at the bottom of the protective cover, and a plurality of support columns are arranged in the protection groove. A column-shaped protrusion is arranged on the protective cover, and a pipeline is arranged in the protrusion and connected to a water source. A dropper is arranged in the protective cover and extends to the column groove and is opposite to the copper bar column after the copper bar column is clamped in the column groove.
[0005] Optionally, a plurality of arc-shaped blocks are arranged on the upper surface of the protective cover above the column groove, and a contact hole is arranged between the arc-shaped blocks.
[0006] Optionally, the upper surface of the protective cover between the column groove and the protrusion is inclined towards the column groove.

[0009] Optionally, the protective cover is made of a corrosion-resistant material.
[0010] The technical scheme provided by the present application can include the following beneficial effects:

[0021] It should be understood that, although the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. can be used in this application to describe various information, these information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, the first information can also be referred to as the second information, and similarly, the second information can also be referred to as the first information without departing from the scope of the present application. Therefore, the features defined as "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0022] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "length", "width", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer" and the like is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.
[0023] Unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connection", "connection", "fixing" and the like should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixed connection, or detachable connection, or integral; it can be mechanical connection, or electrical connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through intermediate medium; it can be the internal communication of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0024] In view of the above problems, the present application provides an electrolytic cell conductive copper bar cleaning device, which will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings.
[0025] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 and Figure 3 The electrolytic cell conductive copper bar cleaning device shown in the drawings needs to be used together with the conductive copper bar 3, which includes a protective cover 4. Specifically, a copper bar column 31 is constructed on the upper surface of the conductive copper bar 3. The protective cover 4 is set as a plate, which covers the conductive copper bar during use to avoid excessive contact with the outside world. A column groove 41 adapted to the copper bar column 31 is constructed on one side of the protective cover 4, and the column groove 41 of the protective cover 4 is buckled on the copper bar column 31 during use. As shown in Figure 4 A plurality of arc-shaped blocks 42 are arranged on the surface of the protective cover 4 above the column groove 41, and a contact hole 48 is arranged at the interval between the arc-shaped blocks 42. During use, the electrode plate 2 is embedded between these gaps and contacts the conductive copper bar 3 at the bottom through the contact hole 48.
[0026] Specifically, in this application, the acid mist condenses and drips onto the surface of the conductive copper busbar 3. Since the condensation does not accumulate in large quantities within a short time, it does not flow onto the conductive copper busbar 3 but remains there. Over time, this causes corrosion. Therefore, as... Figure 3 As shown, this application first forms a protective groove 43 at the bottom of the protective cover 4. Multiple support columns 44 are constructed inside the protective groove 43, which forms a gap between the protective cover 4 and the conductive copper busbar 3 that can both support the protective cover 4 to cover the conductive copper busbar 3 and allow liquid to flow through at the connection. Then, a columnar protrusion 45 is constructed on the protective cover 4. A pipe 46 is constructed inside the protrusion 45 and connected to a water source. A dropper 47 is constructed inside the protective cover 4, extending to the column groove 41 and facing the copper busbar 31 after the column groove 41 is engaged with the copper busbar 31.
[0027] Thus, on the one hand, a large portion of the conductive copper busbar 3 is covered by the protective cover 4, which provides a certain degree of protection and prevents it from being in contact with acid mist for a long time. On the other hand, the acid mist condensation formed at the gaps and contact points of the electrode plate 2 is diluted and washed away by the water transported through the pipe 46 and sprayed out through the dropper 47, thereby achieving the purpose of cleaning and reducing the corrosion of the conductive copper busbar 3 by the acid mist condensation.
[0028] In this application, the upper surface of the protective cover 4 between the column groove 41 and the protrusion 45 is inclined towards the column groove 41 to facilitate the acid mist on the electrode plate 2 to collect and drip back to the copper busbar 31 and be diluted and washed away.
[0029] To facilitate rinsing of the copper busbar column 31 by the dripper 47, a gap of no less than 2 mm is maintained between the copper busbar column 31 and the column groove 41 on the side closest to the dripper 47. One side of the pipe 46 is sealed, and a water inlet pipe is installed on the other side, with a water pump installed on the inlet pipe. Thus, during the process of connecting the water source to the pipe 46, the water pump pressurizes the water, causing the dripper 47 to spray water to rinse the copper busbar column 31. This also facilitates control of the spray volume and time of rinsing. In actual use, an intermittent spray method is adopted for rinsing.
[0030] In one embodiment, to avoid damage to the protective cover 4, the protective cover 4 is made of a corrosion-resistant material, such as ceramic or acrylic sheet.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the terms "first" and "second", and the like, are used herein only to distinguish one identification entity from another, and do not require or imply these entities to be in any physical or logical order. Moreover, the terms "comprising", "including", or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that processes, methods, articles, or apparatuses that comprise, include, or are otherwise encompassed by a series of elements, do not require that all of the elements be present, only that some, but not necessarily all, of the elements are present to provide the processes, methods, articles, or apparatuses.
[0032] The units described as separate components may or may not be physically separate, and the components displayed as units may or may not be physical units, i.e. may be located in one place, or may be distributed to multiple network units. Part or all of the units can be selected according to actual needs to achieve the purpose of the embodiment.
[0033] The above has described the embodiments of the present application, and the above description is exemplary, not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments.
