Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of graphite processing technology, specifically to an impregnation tank for isostatic graphite processing. Background Technology

[0002] Isostatic graphite refers to graphite materials produced by isostatic pressing. It has the characteristics of high strength, high density and high purity, and is therefore also known as "three-high graphite". The processing includes impregnation, in which air pressure is used to force the impregnating agent into the open pores of the graphite material to form a network structure, which seals the pores and improves the performance of graphite. Therefore, a special impregnation tank is required.

[0003] Existing impregnation tanks generally use a submerged impregnation method, which requires graphite to be immersed in the impregnation liquid. However, traditional impregnation tanks lack a device for rapid material placement and removal. Workers need to place the graphite into the impregnation tank one by one, and then remove them one by one after the impregnation is completed. This results in low impregnation efficiency and does not help to reduce the labor intensity of workers. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an impregnation tank for isostatic graphite processing. Through the arrangement of the tank body assembly, impregnation assembly, and lifting assembly, and utilizing the connection between the support frame, motor, screw, and moving plate, the motor is started to rotate, driving the screw to rotate.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides an impregnation tank for isostatic graphite processing, including a tank assembly 1, an impregnation assembly 2 installed inside the tank assembly 1, and a lifting assembly 3 for controlling the movement of the impregnation assembly 2 installed on the outside of the tank assembly 1. The tank assembly 1 includes a tank body 11, and a sealing cover 12 is movably and sealingly installed on the top of the tank body 11. The bottom of the sealing cover 12 is connected to the impregnation assembly 2. The lifting assembly 3 includes a support frame 31 fixedly installed on the outside of the tank body 11. A motor 32 is bolted to the top of the support frame 31. A screw 33 is rotatably installed through the inside of the support frame 31. The output shaft of the motor 32 is keyed to the top of the screw 33. A moving plate 34 is threadedly connected to the middle of the screw 33. The bottom of the moving plate 34 is fixedly connected to the top of the sealing cover 12.

[0022] In use, the tank assembly 1 and the impregnation assembly 2 are designed to hold the impregnation liquid, providing more impregnation space for graphite and meeting the requirements during impregnation. The lifting assembly 3, along with the connection between the support frame 31, motor 32, screw 33, and moving plate 34, allows the motor 32 to rotate, driving the screw 33 to rotate. The screw 33 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, causing the moving plate 34 to move up and down. The moving plate 34 is fixedly connected to the sealing cover 12, and the moving plate 34 moves the sealing cover 12 up and down, thus opening or closing the impregnation tank. Simultaneously, the sealing cover 12 causes the impregnation assembly 2 to extend into or out of the tank 11, enabling the rapid placement or removal of graphite.

[0023] The inner wall of the support frame 31 is provided with a sliding groove 35. A sliding block 36 is fixedly installed at one end of the moving plate 34. One end of the sliding block 36 is slidably installed inside the sliding groove 35. Utilizing the connection relationship between the support frame 31, the sliding groove 35, the moving plate 34, and the sliding block 36, when the moving plate 34 moves inside the support frame 31, it drives the sliding block 36 to move inside the sliding groove 35. The sliding block 36 is effectively prevented from rotating by the limiting of the sliding groove 35, thereby improving the stability of the moving plate 34 moving up and down.

[0024] The impregnation assembly 2 includes a connecting rod 21 fixedly installed at the bottom of the sealing cover 12. A loading cabinet 22 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting rod 21. A cabinet door 23 is rotatably installed at one end of the loading cabinet 22. The loading cabinet 22 is fixedly connected to the sealing cover 12 by the connecting rod 21, which facilitates the movement of the loading cabinet 22 by moving the sealing cover 12. At the same time, the cabinet door 23 at one end of the loading cabinet 22 facilitates the placement and removal of graphite.

[0025] The loading cabinet 22 is fixedly equipped with a partition plate 24. The partition plate 24 divides the interior of the loading cabinet 22 into several groups of spaces, making the graphite placement more uniform and improving the graphite impregnation efficiency. Several groups of liquid inlet holes 25 are opened through the surfaces of the loading cabinet 22, the cabinet door 23, and the partition plate 24. The partition plate 24 ensures that the impregnation liquid enters the interior of the loading cabinet 22 evenly through the liquid inlet holes 25 and comes into contact with the graphite, thereby achieving the impregnation effect.

[0026] The sealing cover 12 includes an outer cover 121, an inner cover 122 fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer cover 121, a sealing gasket 123 installed inside the groove between the outer cover 121 and the inner cover 122, the outer side of the inner cover 122 fits and seals against the inner side wall of the tank body 11, and the sealing gasket 123 is used to make the outer cover 121 and the top of the tank body 11 sealed together, thereby improving the sealing performance of the tank body 11.

[0027] The top of the outer side of the tank 11 is connected to an inlet pipe 13 and an exhaust pipe 15, and the bottom of the tank 11 is connected to an outlet pipe 14. The inlet pipe 13 and the outlet pipe 14 are used to achieve the effect of the impregnation liquid being discharged and discharged. The exhaust pipe 15 is used to use an external vacuum machine to discharge the air inside the impregnation tank, thereby achieving the effect of isostatic graphite impregnation.

[0028] Several sets of support rods 16 are fixedly installed on the top of the tank body 11, and a base 17 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the several sets of support rods 16. By utilizing the connection relationship between the tank body 11, the support rods 16, and the base 17, the base 17 improves the stability of the tank body 11 and achieves the effect of stable installation of the tank body 11.

[0029] In practical use: First, place the device in the designated position using the base 17. Place the preheated graphite inside the loading cabinet 22. Using the lifting assembly 3, and the connection between the support frame 31, motor 32, screw 33, and moving plate 34, start the motor 32 to rotate, causing the screw 33 to rotate. The screw 33 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, causing the moving plate 34 to move up and down. Utilizing the fixed connection between the moving plate 34 and the sealing cover 12, the moving plate 34 moves the sealing cover 12 up and down. The impregnation tank can be opened or closed. At the same time, the sealing cover 12 drives the impregnation assembly 2 to extend into or out of the tank 11, thereby achieving the effect of quickly putting in or taking out graphite. Before impregnation, the air inside the tank 11 is discharged through an external vacuum machine to make the tank 11 a vacuum state. Then, the impregnation liquid is discharged through the liquid inlet pipe 13 to completely submerge the graphite. Then, the air inside the tank 11 is slowly discharged. The external air pressure impregnation liquid is injected into the pores of the graphite material to improve the performance of the graphite.

[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
