Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the field of hoisting device technology, and in particular to a hoisting device for transporting tin-plated anodes. Background Technology
[0002] To ensure electroplating quality, the replacement of anodes in electrochemical tin plating units must be carried out online. Because a single anode is heavy, weighing up to 50kg, and long, about 184cm in length and about 5cm in width, and because the tin material of the anode is relatively soft, it will deform if it is bumped, knocked, or placed on an uneven surface during placement, transportation, handling, or hoisting, thus affecting the electroplating quality.
[0003] Currently, tin-plated anodes are placed on wooden boards in layers and secured with straps. Adjacent tin-plated anodes are squeezed against each other, which can easily damage the surface of the tin-plated anodes. When in use, they need to be manually carried to the electroplating tank for replenishment, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and they are prone to being bumped during transportation. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to address the shortcomings of the prior art by proposing a tin-plated anode transportation and hoisting device that can place each tin-plated anode individually and transport it, thereby avoiding the squeezing, swinging and bumping of adjacent tin-plated anodes during hoisting, which would cause damage to the anode surface.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted in this application is:
[0006] A tin-plated anode transport hoisting device includes a hoisting device body, which includes a top frame, columns, movable side plates, and a bottom plate.
[0007] The top-level frame is a rectangular frame, with four corners connected to four columns. The bottom of the columns is connected to the base plate, and the inside of the columns is wrapped with flexible material. The left and right sides of the top-level frame are symmetrically equipped with lifting lugs.
[0008] A sliding column is horizontally connected between two adjacent columns on the front of the top frame, and the same sliding columns are symmetrically arranged on the back of the top frame. The sliding columns are located on the outside of the columns.
[0009] Several movable side plates are arranged inside the hoisting device body, parallel to the side of the top frame, with no less than one plate. The front and rear sides of the movable side plates are symmetrically provided with protrusions, and the protrusions are provided with through holes for the sliding column to pass through. The protrusions are provided with locking devices.
[0010] The upper edge of the movable side panel is provided with several sliders, with no less than one slider. The width of the slider is greater than the width of the side panel. The slider is covered with a flexible material and is equipped with a locking device.
[0011] An elastic device is provided on the base plate. The elastic device includes a spring and a flexible structural layer. One end of the spring is connected to the base plate, and the other end is connected to the flexible structural layer.
[0012] Preferably, the hoisting device body also includes a flip cover, which is hinged to the back of the top frame and has a flexible material inside.
[0013] Preferably, the flexible material is rubber or polyurethane.
[0014] Preferably, the flexible structural layer is a rubber layer or a polyurethane foam layer.
[0015] Preferably, the locking device includes a bolt and a bolt hole.

[0019] Preferably, the flip cover is provided with a pin, and the top frame is provided with a fixing seat. The pin is used to lock the flip cover by inserting it into the slot of the fixing seat.
[0020] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] 1. This utility model is provided with multiple movable side plates, and multiple movable sliders are provided on the movable side plates. The sliders and the movable side plates together divide the internal space of the hoisting device into separate compartments. Each compartment holds a tin-plated anode vertically. In this way, each tin-plated anode is placed and fixed separately, which can avoid left and right swinging and bumping during hoisting, and prevent adjacent tin-plated anodes from squeezing each other and causing damage.
[0022] 2. The position of the movable side plate and slider can be adjusted according to the size of the tin-plated anode, which can be adapted to different models and batches of tin-plated anodes.

[0034] The tin-plated anode is approximately 184cm long and 5cm wide, and is a long, thin strip of soft metal with mounting holes at the top.
[0035] Figures 1-4 This invention provides a schematic diagram of the hoisting device body and the flatbed railcar structure.
[0036] A tin-plated anode transport and hoisting device includes a hoisting device body 1 and a flatbed railcar 2.
[0037] The hoisting device body 1 includes a top frame 11, columns 12, movable side plates 14, a base plate 15, and a flip cover 16. The top frame 11 is a rectangular frame, and hoisting lugs 111 are symmetrically welded on the left and right sides of the top frame 11 for use with hoisting equipment. The hoisting lugs 111 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides, two to a group, and multiple groups can be set according to actual needs, with a quantity n≥2.
[0038] The four corners of the top frame 11 are welded and fixed to the top of the columns 12. There are four columns 12 arranged vertically. The bottom of the columns 12 is connected to the four corners of the base plate 15. The inside of the columns 12 is wrapped with flexible material. The top frame 11, columns 12 and base plate 15 together form a rectangular three-dimensional frame structure. The flip cover 16 is hinged to the rear side of the top frame 11. The flip cover 16 is equipped with a handle for easy opening and closing. The flip cover 16 is also equipped with a pin. The top frame 11 is equipped with a fixing seat 112. After the flip cover 16 is closed, the pin can be inserted into the groove of the fixing seat 112 to lock the flip cover 16.
[0039] The inner layer of the flip cover 16 is lined with flexible materials, such as rubber and polyurethane, which are elastic and flexible, and can protect the tin-plated anode from damage during hoisting.
[0040] An elastic device is provided on the base plate 15, comprising a spring 151 and a flexible structural layer 152. One end of the spring 151 is connected to the base plate 15, and the other end is connected to the flexible structural layer 152, which is a rubber layer or a polyurethane foam layer. The elastic device on the base plate 15 protects the tin-plated anode, preventing it from being squeezed against the base plate 15 and damaged at the bottom of the anode during hoisting due to gravity. The number of springs 151, n≥1, can be set as needed and evenly distributed between the base plate 15 and the flexible structural layer 152.
[0041] On the front of the hoisting device body 1, between two adjacent columns 12, a sliding column 13 is horizontally fixed. The sliding column 13 is located on the outside of the column 12 and does not affect the internal space of the hoisting device. The same sliding column 13 is also symmetrically arranged on the column 12 on the back of the hoisting device body 1. Multiple sliding columns 13 can be set as needed, with a quantity n≥2.
[0042] The movable side plate 14 is a rectangular side plate. The width of the movable side plate 14 is less than or equal to the width of the top frame 11, and the length of the movable side plate 14 is less than the length of the column 12. The movable side plate 14 is installed inside the hoisting device body 1 and is parallel to the side of the top frame 11. Symmetrically arranged on both sides of the movable side plate 14 are protrusions 141, with a quantity n≥2. Each protrusion 141 has a through hole 142 for the sliding column 13 to pass through. The protrusions 141 are arranged symmetrically on both sides, in pairs, and multiple sets can be installed to match the sliding column 13. The movable side plate 14 is slidably connected to the sliding column 13 via the protrusions 141 on both sides, allowing it to move horizontally inside the hoisting device body 1. The length of the movable side plate 14 is less than the length of the column 12, and a certain gap is left between the bottom of the movable side plate 14 and the base plate 15 to allow for elastic movement of the elastic device on the base plate 15 and to facilitate the sliding of the movable side plate 14.
[0043] A locking device 143 is provided on the protrusion 141. The locking device 143 includes a bolt and a bolt hole. The bolt hole is opened on the protrusion 141 and a bolt is installed in the bolt hole. When the movable side plate 14 moves to the set position, the bolt on each protrusion 141 is tightened to fix the position of the movable side plate 14.
[0044] Each movable side plate 14 has n sliders 144 on its upper edge, where n ≥ 1. The width of each slider 144 is greater than the width of the side plate. The sliders 144 are covered with a flexible material, such as rubber or polyurethane. The sliders 144 can slide along the upper edge of the movable side plate 14. Each slider 144 is also equipped with a locking device 143, which includes a bolt and a bolt hole. A bolt hole is formed at the top of each slider 144, and a bolt is installed in the bolt hole. When the slider 144 moves to a set position, the bolt can be tightened to lock the slider 144 in place. The number of sliders 144 can be set as needed.
[0045] Multiple sliders 144 are provided on the upper edge of the movable side plate 14, which can divide the accommodating space of the hoisting device body 1 into multiple compartments. Each compartment contains a tin-plated anode, which can prevent adjacent tin-plated anodes from colliding and squeezing each other, causing damage. The sliders 144 can fix the position of each tin-plated anode, preventing it from swinging during hoisting. At the same time, the flexible material wrapped around the sliders 144 can protect the tin-plated anodes. The length of the sliders 144 is preferably the same as the length of the movable side plate 14, but it can also be 1 / 2 or 1 / 3 of the length of the movable side plate 14.
[0046] On the side of the hoisting device body 1, a crossbeam 17 is welded between two adjacent columns 12 to make the entire structure more stable. A locking buckle 171 is installed on the crossbeam 17. Figure 1As shown, three crossbeams 17 are provided: one in the middle of the column 12, one at the top of the column 12 near the top frame 11, and one at the bottom of the column 12 near the base plate 15. Locking latches 171 are provided on the crossbeams 17 at the top and bottom of the column 12. The crossbeams 17 and locking latches 171 on the left and right sides of the hoisting device body 1 are mirror images of each other.
[0047] The flatbed railcar 2 is equipped with U-shaped guide wheels, each with a load capacity of 20 tons, and is made of 304 stainless steel. The electroplating work tank's mounting platform has embedded guide rails, along which the flatbed railcar 2 can move. The size of the flatbed railcar 2 matches the base plate 15 of the hoisting device body 1, and the hoisting device body is placed vertically on the flatbed railcar 2 for transportation. The hoisting device body is locked and secured to the flatbed railcar with latches, ensuring the verticality and stability of the hoisting device body 1 during transportation and preventing tipping.
[0048] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0049] Based on the actual size and quantity of the tin-plated anodes, adjust the positions of the movable side plate 14 and the slider 144 so that the movable side plate 14 and the slider 144 together divide the internal space of the hoisting device body into separate compartments, each compartment being able to accommodate one tin-plated anode. After adjusting the positions of the movable side plate 14 and the slider 144, tighten the bolts on the protrusion 141 and the slider 144 to lock the positions of the movable side plate 14 and the slider 144.
[0050] After adjusting the positions of the movable side plate 14 and the slider 144, the tin-plated anode is placed vertically into the compartment. The tin-plated anode is provided with mounting holes, and the workshop is equipped with lifting devices that are compatible with the mounting holes. Each tin-plated anode can be lifted from the mounting holes using the lifting devices, thus completing the placement of the tin-plated anode.
[0051] After placing the tin-plated anode, close the flip cover 16 and insert the pin into the groove of the fixing seat 112 to lock the flip cover 16.
[0052] The hoisting device body 1 is lifted by the lifting lug 111 using a lifting tool and moved to the flat railcar 2 next to the installation platform of the electroplating work tank. Common hoisting tools such as electric hoists can be selected. The hoisting device body 1 is placed vertically on the flat railcar 2 and the side lock 171 is locked on the flat railcar to prevent it from tipping over during the movement.
[0053] Flatbed railcar 2 transports the tin-plated anodes.
[0054] Flexible materials are provided on the flip cover 16 and column 12 of the hoisting device body 1, and an elastic device is also provided on the base plate 15 to ensure that the tin-plated anodes will not collide with each other or be damaged during hoisting.
[0055] It should be noted that the specific dimensions of the length, width and height of each component of the hoisting device body 1 can be calculated based on the specific dimensions and quantity of the tin-plated anodes. The size and quantity of the slider 144 and the size and quantity of the movable side plates can be designed according to actual needs. The compartments of the hoisting device body 1 can be completely filled with tin-plated anodes or not, neither of which will affect the normal use of this utility model.
[0056] The preferred embodiments of this application have been described in detail above. However, this application is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of this application, various equivalent transformations can be made to the technical solution of this application, and all such equivalent transformations fall within the protection scope of this application.
