Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an aluminum ingot demolding device, and more particularly to an aluminum ingot casting demolding detection device, belonging to the field of detection and alarm technology. Background Technology
[0002] During aluminum ingot (including alloy aluminum ingot) casting, the molten aluminum from the holding furnace flows into the mold through chutes and distribution plates. As the molten aluminum is transferred through the mold, it gradually solidifies into a solid aluminum ingot. After the mold has been transferred a certain distance, it flips over and the aluminum ingot automatically falls onto the conveyor belt. However, due to factors such as the shape and temperature of the aluminum ingot, some ingots fail to fall out of the mold after it flips over, posing a significant risk to production safety and continuity. Currently, this is generally monitored manually at the mold end, which is labor-intensive and involves high working temperatures. Although the workload is relatively small, the safety risks are significant. Utility Model Content

[0008] A through hole is provided in the middle of the connecting rod, and a laser rangefinder is provided below the through hole. The laser rangefinder is fixedly connected to the connecting rod by a U-shaped frame.

[0017] The present invention will be further explained and described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0018] Example 1, see Figures 1-2 An aluminum ingot casting stripping detection device includes a fixed plate 1, a movable rod 3, and an arc-shaped support arm 8. The movable rod 3 is rotatably connected to both sides of the fixed plate 1 via a support 2. A cylinder 6 is provided on the outside of the movable rod 3, and a hammer head 4 is provided at the bottom of the movable rod 3. Two arc-shaped support arms 8 are provided on the fixed plate 1 inside the support 2, and a connecting rod 12 is provided between the two arc-shaped support arms 8. A laser rangefinder 15 is provided in the middle of the connecting rod 12, and the laser rangefinder 15 is electrically connected to a controller.
[0019] A screw 7 is provided on the fixing plate 1, and an arc-shaped support arm 8 is sleeved on the screw 7 and fixed by a nut.
[0020] There are two arc-shaped support arms 8, and a connecting rod 12 is provided between the two arc-shaped support arms 8. The arc-shaped support arms 8 are distributed in an "L" shape, and the bottom of the arc-shaped support arms 8 is distributed in a sloping shape. A through groove 10 is dug at the bottom of the arc-shaped support arm 8, and a guide wheel 11 is provided in the through groove 10.
[0021] A through hole 13 is provided in the middle of the connecting rod 12, and a laser rangefinder 15 is provided below the through hole 13. The laser rangefinder 15 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 12 through a U-shaped frame 14.
[0022] Supports 5 are respectively installed on the top of both sides of the fixed plate 1. A cylinder 6 is hinged to the bottom of the front end of the support 5. The push rod of the cylinder 6 is hinged to the movable rod 3.
[0023] The mounting plate 1 is located at the front end of the frame, and an alarm 16 is located at the top of the frame. The alarm 16 is electrically connected to the controller.
[0024] In the above description, the U-shaped frame passes through the connecting rod and is clamped and fixed to the laser rangefinder with nuts. At this time, the upper end of the U-shaped frame is located below the top surface of the bottom of the arc-shaped support arm.
[0025] In the above description, the hammer head is located in front of the aluminum ingot casting equipment. Under the action of the cylinder, it can strike the aluminum ingot in the mold in front of the equipment, which facilitates the rapid removal of the aluminum ingot.
[0026] In the above description, the bottom of the arc-shaped support arm is located below the front end of the aluminum ingot casting equipment. The aluminum ingot inside the mold can quickly fall onto the arc-shaped support arm after being struck by the hammer, and then fall onto the conveyor belt along the arc-shaped support arm.
[0027] In the above description, the top of the connecting rod is located below the top surface of the bottom of the arc-shaped support arm. In other words, the connecting rod does not affect the falling of the aluminum ingot. When the aluminum ingot falls, it is in conjunction with the laser rangefinder.
[0028] In the above description, the position of the light output port of the laser rangefinder corresponds to the position of the through hole.
[0029] In the above description, when the aluminum ingot does not fall in time, the laser rangefinder can quickly measure the distance between the aluminum ingot and the mold, avoiding the subjective errors and misjudgments of traditional manual inspection, and ensuring that the aluminum ingot will only enter the subsequent process after it is completely demolded, which greatly improves the success rate of demolding.
[0030] This invention features movable rods rotatably connected to both sides of a fixed plate, which, in conjunction with a cylinder, can strike the mold inside the aluminum ingot casting equipment, facilitating rapid demolding of the aluminum ingot. A laser rangefinder mounted on the connecting rod transmits the measured distance data to the controller in real time, determining whether the aluminum ingot has been completely demolded. This achieves automatic detection and judgment of the aluminum ingot's demolding status without manual intervention, significantly improving production efficiency and automation.
