Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of impregnation devices, and more specifically, to a graphite electrode impregnation device. Background Technology

[0002] The raw graphite electrode, after being pressed and molded, has very low porosity. However, after roasting, some of the coal tar pitch decomposes into gas and escapes, while the rest cokes into pitch coke. The volume of the pitch coke generated is much smaller than the original volume occupied by the coal tar pitch. Although there is slight shrinkage during roasting, many irregular micropores of varying sizes are still formed inside the product. The presence of a large number of pores will inevitably have a certain impact on the physical and chemical properties of the product. Impregnation is a process that reduces the porosity of the product, increases its density, increases its compressive strength, reduces its resistivity, and changes its physical and chemical properties.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese Patent Publication No. CN219898822U discloses a "graphite electrode impregnation device," comprising a base, an impregnation tank slidably connected to the upper end of the base, and universal pulleys fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower end of the base. The drive mechanism includes a dual-head motor, with drive rods connected to the front and rear ends of the dual-head motors via couplings. The ends of the drive rods that are furthest apart pass through the middle of a bearing seat and are fixedly connected to a pulley. Each pulley is connected to a second pulley via a transmission belt. A gear is fixedly connected to the furthest side of each pulley, and a drive gear is meshed with the upper end of each gear. A drive assembly is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the furthest end of the drive rod. This utility model's graphite electrode impregnation device, through a drive mechanism driving a fixed mechanism to perform intermittent movement and simultaneously causing the impregnation tank to shake, improves impregnation efficiency and achieves better impregnation results, but still has the following drawbacks:

[0004] (1) The existing graphite electrode plate impregnation device mounting frame cannot adjust the installation size of each frame individually, so it can only place graphite electrode plates of fixed size. Graphite electrode plates will be produced in various sizes during production, so multiple models of impregnation devices are required to impregnate electrode plates of different sizes, which reduces the versatility of the impregnation device.

[0005] (2) The existing impregnation device only has the impregnation function. After the electrode plate is impregnated, the impregnation liquid needs to be dried, so a separate place is needed to place the electrode plate, which takes up more space and reduces the functionality of the impregnation device.

[0006] Therefore, we have made improvements to this by proposing a graphite electrode impregnation device. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems of insufficient versatility and functionality of existing impregnation devices.

[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0009] A graphite electrode impregnation device is provided to improve the above-mentioned problems.

[0010] The present invention is as follows:

[0011] The tank includes a pool body, with uprights symmetrically arranged on the upper sides of the front and rear ends of the pool body. A motor is installed at the front end of the front upright, a soaking assembly is installed between the front and rear uprights, and a drying assembly is installed on the outer right side of the pool body.

[0012] The soaking assembly includes a rotating frame arranged between upright plates, a telescopic groove is provided inside the rotating frame, a telescopic plate is telescopically arranged inside the telescopic groove, a side groove is provided on the side wall of the telescopic groove, and a side plate that cooperates with the side groove is provided on the side wall of the telescopic plate.

[0013] The air-drying assembly includes brackets symmetrically installed on the outer right side of the pool body. A sliding groove is opened on the upper surface of the bracket, and a sliding plate is movably installed inside the sliding groove. A second spring is fixedly connected to the right side wall of the sliding plate.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a telescopic rod is provided on the side wall of the side plate, and a first spring is fitted on the outer wall of the telescopic rod.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a connecting frame is provided between the telescopic plates on both sides. A central groove is provided in the center of the connecting frame. A first bevel gear is provided on the inner wall of the central groove away from the rotating frame. A knob is connected to the outer end of the first bevel gear. Second bevel gears that cooperate with the first bevel gear are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the central groove.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, slots are provided on the outer sides of the central groove, and a screw is provided inside the slot, with a sleeve plate fitted on the outer wall of the screw.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the outer wall of the sleeve is fitted with a clamping plate.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the side wall of the slide groove is provided with a side groove, and the side wall of the slide plate is provided with a side plate that cooperates with the side groove.

[0019] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a pressure plate is connected between the two sliding plates on both sides, and a support plate is provided at the center of the right side of the pool body.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0021] In the solution of this utility model:

[0022] 1. Using a telescopic plate, a first bevel gear, a second bevel gear, and a clamping plate, when it is necessary to impregnate graphite electrode plates of different sizes, turning the knob drives the first bevel gear connected to it to rotate, which in turn drives the second bevel gear to rotate, which in turn drives the screw connected to it to rotate. This meshes and drives the sleeve plate to slide stably in the slot, which in turn drives the two sets of symmetrical clamping plates to move synchronously apart. The clamping plate spacing is adjusted according to the thickness of the graphite electrode plate. Pulling the connecting frame outward drives the telescopic plate to slide in the telescopic groove, which in turn drives the side plate to slide in the side groove, compressing the telescopic rod and the first spring to retract them. The spacing between the connecting frame and the rotating frame is adjusted according to the length of the graphite electrode plate. After adjustment, the electrode plate is clamped on both sides by the symmetrical clamping plates. At the same time, the tension on the connecting frame is released, and the telescopic rod and the first spring push the side plate, which drives the connecting frame to clamp the electrode plate between the crossbeam of the connecting frame and the rotating frame. This completes the stable clamping of graphite electrode plates of different sizes. Controlling the motor to drive the rotating frame to rotate allows for efficient impregnation of graphite electrode plates of different sizes.

[0023] 2. By using the slide plate, the second spring, the pressure plate, and the support plate, pulling the pressure plate to the right causes the slide plate to move to the right within the slide groove, which in turn causes the side plate to move to the right within the side groove, compressing the second spring and increasing the lateral distance between the pressure plate and the support plate. The impregnated graphite electrode plate is then placed flat on the upper side of the support, supported by the support plate. Releasing the tension on the pressure plate causes the second spring to push the side plate to the left, causing the slide plate to move to the left, which in turn moves the pressure plate to the left, clamping the electrode plate to the left side of the pressure plate. This process allows for the air drying of the impregnated liquid under the perforated support, improving the functionality of the impregnation device. Attached Figure Description

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model.

[0033] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely to illustrate some embodiments of the utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0034] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0035] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0036] like Figure 1-6 As shown, this embodiment proposes a graphite electrode impregnation device, including a pool body 1, with upright plates 2 symmetrically arranged on the upper sides of the front and rear ends of the pool body 1, a motor 3 arranged at the front end of the front upright plate 2, an immersion assembly arranged between the front and rear upright plates 2, and a drying assembly arranged on the outer right side of the pool body 1.

[0037] The soaking assembly includes a rotating frame 401 disposed between the upright plates 2. The rotating frame 401 has a telescopic groove 402 inside. A telescopic plate 403 is telescopically disposed inside the telescopic groove 402. A side groove 404 is provided on the side wall of the telescopic groove 402. A side plate 405 that cooperates with the side groove 404 is provided on the side wall of the telescopic plate 403.

[0038] The air-drying assembly includes a bracket 501 symmetrically installed on the outer right side of the pool body 1. A groove 502 is provided on the upper surface of the bracket 501. A slide plate 503 is movably installed inside the groove 502. A second spring 504 is fixedly connected to the right side wall of the slide plate 503.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, a telescopic rod 406 is provided on the side wall of the side plate 405. A first spring 407 is fitted on the outer wall of the telescopic rod 406. The side plate 405 slides in the side groove 404 and squeezes the telescopic rod 406 and the first spring 407 to make them contract. The distance between the connecting frame 408 and the rotating frame 401 is adjusted according to the length of the graphite electrode plate.

[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, a connecting frame 408 is connected between the two telescopic plates 403. A central groove 409 is provided in the center of the connecting frame 408. A first bevel gear 410 is provided on the inner wall of the central groove 409 away from the rotating frame 401. A knob 411 is connected to the outer end of the first bevel gear 410. Second bevel gears 412 that cooperate with the first bevel gear 410 are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the central groove 409. Twisting the knob 411 drives the first bevel gear 410 connected to it to rotate, which in turn drives the second bevel gear 412 to rotate, which in turn drives the screw 414 connected to it to rotate. This meshing causes the sleeve plate 415 to slide stably in the slot 413, which in turn drives the two sets of symmetrical clamping plates 416 to move synchronously away from each other.

[0041] like Figure 4 As shown, slots 413 are provided on the outer sides of the central groove 409. Screws 414 are provided inside the slots 413. Sleeves 415 are fitted on the outer wall of the screws 414. The engagement of the sleeves 415 causes them to slide stably within the slots 413, thereby driving the two sets of symmetrical clamps 416 to move synchronously apart. The spacing between the clamps 416 can be adjusted according to the thickness of the graphite electrode plate.

[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, the outer wall of the sleeve 415 is fitted with a clamping plate 416. When the screw 414 rotates, it engages and drives the sleeve 415 to slide stably within the slot 413, which in turn drives the two sets of symmetrical clamping plates 416 to move synchronously away from each other. By adjusting the spacing of the clamping plates 416 according to the thickness of the graphite electrode plate, stable clamping of graphite electrode plates of different sizes can be achieved.

[0043] like Figure 6As shown, the side wall of the slide 502 is provided with a side groove 505, and the side wall of the slide plate 503 is provided with a side plate 506 that cooperates with the side groove 505. The side plate 506 is driven to move to the right in the side groove 505 to squeeze the second spring 504 and make it contract, thereby increasing the lateral distance between the pressure plate 507 and the support plate 508. The impregnated graphite electrode plate is placed flat on the upper side of the bracket 501 to obtain the support of the support plate 508.

[0044] like Figure 6 As shown, a pressure plate 507 is connected between the two sliding plates 503. A support plate 508 is provided at the center of the right side of the pool body 1. The graphite electrode plate after being impregnated is placed flat on the support 501 and supported by the support plate 508. When the tension on the pressure plate 507 is released, the second spring 504 pushes the side plate 506 to the left, causing the sliding plate 503 to move to the left, so that the pressure plate 507 moves to the left and clamps the electrode plate at the left side of the pressure plate 507, thereby performing the air drying treatment of the impregnated liquid under the hollow support.

[0045] Specifically, when using this impregnation device: when impregnating graphite electrode plates of different sizes, turning the knob 411 rotates the first bevel gear 410 connected to it, which in turn rotates the second bevel gear 412, which in turn rotates the screw 414 connected to it. This rotation causes the sleeve plate 415 to slide stably within the slot 413, which in turn causes the two sets of symmetrical clamping plates 416 to move synchronously apart. The spacing between the clamping plates 416 is adjusted according to the thickness of the graphite electrode plate. Pulling the connecting frame 408 outward causes the telescopic plate 403 to slide within the telescopic groove 402, which in turn causes the side plate 405 to slide within the side groove 404, compressing the telescopic rod 406 and the first spring 407 to contract. The spacing between the connecting frame 408 and the rotating frame 401 is adjusted according to the length of the graphite electrode plate. After adjustment, the electrode plate is clamped on both sides by the symmetrical clamping plates 416. At the same time, the tension on the connecting frame 408 is released, and the telescopic rod 406 and the first spring 407... Pushing the side plate 405 causes the connecting frame 408 to clamp the electrode plate between the crossbeam of the connecting frame 408 and the rotating frame 401, thus achieving stable clamping of graphite electrode plates of different sizes. Controlling the motor 3 to rotate the rotating frame 401 enables efficient impregnation treatment of graphite electrode plates of different sizes. Pulling the pressure plate 507 to the right causes the sliding plate 503 to move to the right within the sliding groove 502, causing the side plate 506 to move to the right within the side groove 505, compressing the second spring 504. The shrinkage increases the lateral distance between the pressure plate 507 and the support plate 508, allowing the impregnated graphite electrode plate to be placed flat on the upper side of the bracket 501 and supported by the support plate 508. The tension on the pressure plate 507 is released, and the second spring 504 pushes the side plate 506 to the left, causing the slide plate 503 to move to the left, so that the pressure plate 507 moves to the left and clamps the electrode plate on the left side of the pressure plate 507. This allows for the air drying treatment of the impregnated liquid under the hollow support, improving the functionality of the impregnation device.

[0046] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0047] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
