Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of aluminum alloy inspection technology, and in particular relates to a rapid alkaline etching device for aluminum alloy inspection. Background Technology
[0002] Alkaline etching equipment in aluminum alloy inspection refers to a device used to treat the surface of aluminum alloys. Its main function is to remove the oxide layer, oil, and other impurities from the aluminum alloy surface through a chemical reaction, facilitating subsequent inspection or processing steps. This process typically involves immersing the aluminum alloy component in an alkaline solution of a certain concentration and reacting it under specific temperature and time conditions.
[0003] Existing equipment often places aluminum alloys directly into an alkaline tank, and after the reaction is complete, it is retrieved using simple tools. During the process of retrieving the aluminum alloys, operators may come into direct contact with alkaline solutions or other chemicals, thereby increasing the risk of operators being exposed to harmful chemicals. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model addresses the problems in the prior art by proposing the following technical solution:
[0005] This utility model provides a rapid alkaline etching device for inspecting aluminum alloys, comprising:
[0006] Several alkali tanks with openings at the top are provided. A driving component is symmetrically arranged at the top of the alkali tank. The output end of the driving component faces upward and is provided with a support plate at the output end. A support groove is opened on the support plate. A baffle is also rotatably arranged on the support plate.
[0007] The material holding frame has extension plates on both sides of its top. The bottom end of the material holding frame extends into the alkali tank from its opening. The extension plates are placed in the support grooves of the support plate on the corresponding side. The baffle rotates to the top of the extension plates. The baffle and the support plate cooperate to clamp the extension plates to fix the material holding frame. The driving component can drive the material holding frame to move longitudinally at the opening of the alkali tank.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the alkali tank is further provided with a circulation pipe communicating with its inner cavity, and the circulation pipe is provided with a pump body and a temperature controller.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, it further includes a rotating shaft, wherein the baffle is rotatably engaged with the support plate via the rotating shaft.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] This invention enables the detachable and quick-installation of the material container frame through the design of a drive component, support plate, and baffle. The quick-installation and disassembly design makes it easier to replace the material container frame.

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments.
[0020] Example
[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, Figure 1 The diagram shown is a front view of the alkaline etching device in the embodiment. Figure 2 The diagram shown is a cross-sectional view of the alkaline etching device in the embodiment.

[0023] This device includes:
[0024] Several alkali tanks 10 with openings at the top are provided. A drive unit 21 is symmetrically arranged at the top of the alkali tank 10. The output end of the drive unit 21 faces upward and is provided with a support plate 22. A support groove is provided on the support plate 22. A baffle 23 is also rotatably arranged on the support plate 22.
[0025] The material holding frame 30 has extension plates 31 on both sides of its top. The bottom end of the material holding frame 30 extends into the alkali tank 10 from the opening. The extension plates 31 are placed in the support groove of the support plate 22 on the same side. The baffle 23 rotates to the top of the extension plates 31. The baffle 23 and the support plate 22 cooperate to clamp the extension plates 31 to fix the material holding frame 30. The driving component 21 can drive the material holding frame 30 to move longitudinally at the opening of the alkali tank 10.
[0026] The material holding frame 30 is a frame structure for loading the aluminum alloy material to be processed, with an open top; the alkali pool 10 is a container for holding alkaline solution, with an opening at the top to facilitate the entry and exit of the material holding frame 30 containing the aluminum alloy material; multiple alkali pools 10 are provided, which can simultaneously conduct multiple sets of aluminum alloy tests, or different test solutions can be placed inside to conduct multiple sets of experiments.
[0027] The drive component 21 can drive the material holding frame 30 to move longitudinally up and down at the opening of the alkali tank 10, causing the aluminum alloy material in the material holding frame 30 to be immersed in or leave the solution in the alkali tank 10. Specifically, the drive component 21 can be an existing technology component that can achieve linear motion, such as an electric telescopic rod or a cylinder.
[0028] When installing the material holding frame 30, first rotate the baffle 23 to a position that does not affect the placement of the extension plate 31 into the support groove (e.g., Figure 5 (As shown), then place the extension plate 31 of the material holding frame 30 into the support groove of the support plate 22 on the same side, and then rotate the baffle 23 to a position above the extension plate 31 (as shown). Figure 4 As shown, the baffle 23 and the support plate 22 work together to clamp the extension plate 31. The baffle 23 restricts the extension plate 31 from leaving the support groove, thereby realizing the installation and fixation of the material holding frame 30.
[0029] The support plate 22 and baffle 23 enable the detachable and quick-installation of the material container 30, making it easier to replace. The drive component 21 allows the material container 30, which contains aluminum alloy material, to descend into the alkali tank 10 to react with the solution. After the reaction is complete, the material container 30 can be quickly raised, making the operation convenient and eliminating the need for manual contact with the alkali solution, thus reducing the risk of corrosion.
[0030] Specifically, it also includes a rotating shaft 24, through which the baffle 23 rotates in conjunction with the support plate 22.
[0031] The top of the material holding frame 30 is also provided with a lifting ring 32;
[0032] The lifting ring 32 makes it easy to hold the material container 30, facilitating installation and removal.
[0033] The alkali tank 10 is also provided with a circulation pipe 11 that communicates with its inner cavity. The circulation pipe 11 is equipped with a pump body 12 and a temperature controller.
[0034] The circulation pipe 11 is installed on the alkali tank 10. The pump body 12 is installed on the circulation pipe 11. The temperature controller (not shown in the figure) is also installed on the circulation pipe 11. When the pump body 12 is started, the pump body 12 transports the alkali solution through the circulation pipe 11 to the temperature controller for circulation heating, which is beneficial to the alkali etching process. The circulation pipe 11, temperature controller, pump body 12 and other components in the circulation structure are all existing technologies.
[0035] Working principle: When using this device, first rotate the baffle 23 of the corresponding alkali tank 10 to a position that does not affect the placement of the extension plate 31 into the support groove. Then, place the extension plate 31 of the material holding frame 30 into the support groove of the support plate 22 on the same side. Then rotate the baffle 23 to a position above the extension plate 31. The baffle 23 and the support plate 22 cooperate to clamp the extension plate 31, thereby realizing the installation and fixation of the material holding frame 30. Then start the drive component 21, which drives the material holding frame 30 to descend until the material holding frame 30 containing aluminum alloy material descends into the alkali tank 10 and the aluminum alloy material reacts with the solution. After the reaction is completed, start the drive component 21 again to quickly raise the material holding frame 30, so that the aluminum alloy material leaves the solution. The material holding frame 30 can be removed and taken out according to specific needs.
[0036] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
