Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cleaning equipment technology, and in particular to an anode plate release agent cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most electrolysis plants use relatively primitive mechanical methods to clean anode plates with anode mud, namely mechanical brushes. Because the anode plates to be cleaned are heavy, moving them manually is difficult, generally requiring the use of cranes or other mechanical equipment. After moving and fixing them, the brushes are fixed to both sides of the anode plates to be cleaned for mechanical scrubbing. This mechanical method of cleaning anode plates is time-consuming, inefficient, and does not achieve optimal cleaning results. Existing technologies address this issue by using ultrasonic cleaning to replace mechanical cleaning. For example, the utility model patent application CN 202162173 U, entitled "Ultrasonic Cleaning Machine for Electrolytic Lead Anode Plates," discloses an ultrasonic generator installed on the outer wall of the cleaning tank, and multiple sets of ultrasonic transducers installed on the left, right, and bottom sides of the cleaning tank. Lead anode plates are placed inside the cleaning tank, perpendicular to the bottom, with a distance of 80-100 mm between the lead anode plates. However, multiple sets of ultrasonic transducers are installed on the left and right sides and bottom inside the cleaning tank. Because ultrasonic waves exhibit three attenuation mechanisms during propagation: diffusion attenuation, scattering attenuation, and absorption attenuation, the ultrasonic transducers, when positioned relative to each other, reach the point of relative impulse (the midpoint)...

[0003] Ultrasonic cleaning will attenuate, thus reducing the cleaning effect. The closer to the center point, the greater the attenuation and the worse the cleaning effect. Therefore, in order to maintain a consistent cleaning effect for each anode plate, the ultrasonic cleaning position needs to be redesigned. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve or partially solve the problems existing in the related technologies, this application provides an anode plate release agent cleaning device that can make the cleaning effect of each anode plate consistent.

[0005] This application discloses an anode plate release agent cleaning device, including a cleaning tank, an ultrasonic generator, an ultrasonic transducer, and a drain outlet; a drain outlet is provided at the bottom of the cleaning tank, and an ultrasonic generator is provided on one side of the cleaning tank; it also includes: a fixed plate, an expansion joint, and connecting plates; the expansion joint is fixedly provided on one side of the cleaning tank, and the expansion end of the expansion joint is connected to the fixed plate, the fixed plate is located inside the cleaning tank, and multiple connecting plates are vertically and spaced apart on the fixed plate, each connecting plate is connected to an ultrasonic transducer, and the ultrasonic transducer is connected to the ultrasonic generator.

[0006] Optionally, the connecting plate carrying the ultrasonic transducer extends with the telescoping device and is positioned between the anode plates.

[0007] Optionally, the mounting plate may have through holes.

[0008] Optionally, the ultrasonic transducers are evenly distributed on the fixed plate so that the ultrasonic waves they emit can act uniformly on the anode plate, and the ultrasonic emission ports of two adjacent ultrasonic transducers are staggered.

[0009] Optionally, limit posts are provided on the connecting plate.

[0010] Optionally, the connecting plate is detachably connected to the fixed plate via keyways and screws.

[0011] The technical solution provided in this application may include the following beneficial effects:

[0012] This device performs ultrasonic cleaning by movably setting ultrasonic transducers between each anode plate. After cleaning, the telescopic device carries the equipment back so that the anode plates can be transported away normally. Each anode plate undergoes the same ultrasonic cleaning, and the ultrasonic waves do not attenuate significantly, resulting in a cleaner and more uniform cleaning.

[0020] Embodiments of this application will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While embodiments of this application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that this application may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make this application more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of this application to those skilled in the art.

[0021] It should be understood that although the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., may be used in this application to describe various information, this information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from one another. For example, without departing from the scope of this application, first information may also be referred to as second information, and similarly, second information may also be referred to as first information. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0022] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0023] Unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0024] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides an anode plate release agent cleaning device. The technical solution of this application embodiment is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The device shown is an anode plate release agent cleaning device, including a cleaning tank 1, an ultrasonic generator 2, an ultrasonic transducer 3, and a drain port 5. The drain port 5 is located at the bottom of the cleaning tank 1, and the ultrasonic generator 2 is located on one side of the cleaning tank 1. It also includes a fixing plate 6, a telescopic device 7, and connecting plates 8. The improvement of this device is that the width of the original cleaning tank 1 is doubled, while the original position and conveying method remain unchanged. A telescopic device 7 is fixedly installed on the enlarged side of the cleaning tank 1, and the telescopic end of the telescopic device 7 is connected to the fixing plate 6. The fixing plate 6 is located inside the cleaning tank 1. Multiple connecting plates 8 are vertically and spaced apart on the fixing plate 6, and each connecting plate 8 is connected to an ultrasonic transducer 3, which is connected to the ultrasonic generator 2.

[0026] Thus, when this device is in use, as the anode plates 4 are conveyed into the cleaning tank 1, the telescopic device 7 is activated, carrying the fixed plate 6, the connecting plate 8 on it, and the ultrasonic transducers 3 outwards. This allows the connecting plate 8, carrying the ultrasonic transducers 3, to extend and position itself between the anode plates 4. The ultrasonic generator 2 and the ultrasonic transducers 3 are then activated, ensuring that each anode plate 4 is ultrasonically cleaned by a pair of ultrasonic transducers 3 facing each other. In this way, by movably positioning the ultrasonic transducers 3 between each anode plate 4 for ultrasonic cleaning, and after cleaning, the telescopic device 7 retracts to allow the anode plates 4 to be conveyed normally, each anode plate 4 undergoes the same ultrasonic cleaning, and the direct cleaning minimizes ultrasonic attenuation, resulting in a cleaner and more uniform cleaning.

[0027] In one embodiment, the fixing plate 6 is provided with through holes to reduce some resistance when it moves within the cleaning tank.

[0028] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, multiple ultrasonic transducers 3 can be installed and evenly distributed on the fixed plate 6 according to specific needs, so that the ultrasonic waves emitted by them can act uniformly on the anode plate 4, and the ultrasonic emission ports of two adjacent ultrasonic transducers 3 are staggered. In this way, the ultrasonic waves emitted by the two opposite ultrasonic emission ports will not completely offset and attenuate.

[0029] In one embodiment, a limit post 9 is provided on the connecting plate 8 to prevent the anode plate 4 from shaking and hitting the ultrasonic transducer 3.

[0030] In one embodiment, the connecting plate 8 is detachably connected to the fixing plate 6 via keyways and screws to facilitate its disassembly, maintenance, and position adjustment.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that in this document, relationships such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "include," "contain," or any other variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0032] The units described as separate components may or may not be physically separate. The components shown as units may or may not be physical units; that is, they may be located in one place or distributed across multiple network units. Some or all of the units can be selected to achieve the purpose of this embodiment according to actual needs.

[0033] The various embodiments of this application have been described above. These descriptions are exemplary and not exhaustive, nor are they limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The terminology used herein is chosen to best explain the principles, practical application, or improvement of the technology in the market, or to enable others skilled in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
