[0028] 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.
[0029] To further understand the content of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0030] Referring to Figures 1-3, a vacuum lifting ladle for molten aluminum includes a vacuum lifting ladle body 1 and a cover body 2 detachably mounted on the top of the vacuum lifting ladle body 1. A lifting arm body 3 is fixedly connected to the outside of the vacuum lifting ladle body 1. Placement boxes 11 are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the vacuum lifting ladle body 1. An ejector assembly 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the cover body 2. The placement box 11 is equipped with a removable assembly, which facilitates the opening of the vacuum lifting ladle body 1 by the operator. The removable assembly includes a connecting groove 111 on the top of the placement box 11. A sealing groove 12 is also provided on the top of the vacuum lifting ladle body 1. A telescopic cylinder 13 is fixedly connected inside the placement box 11. A discharge pipe 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the vacuum lifting ladle body 1.
[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.
[0032] Example 1:
[0033] To address the issue that vacuum lifting bags often require cleaning after prolonged use, but existing vacuum lifting bags are generally integrated, making it inconvenient for workers to open and clean them, this embodiment discloses the following technical solution, as shown in Figures 1-3. Extension blocks 22 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bag cover body 2. A connecting block 221 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the extension block 22, and the connecting block 221 slides into the connecting groove 111. A sealing block 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the bag cover body 2, and the sealing block 23 slides into the sealing groove 12. An ejector block 131 is fixedly connected to the output end of the telescopic cylinder 13, and the ejector block 131 slides inside the connecting groove 111, matching the connecting block 221. When using the device, one end of the ejector assembly 21 can be extended into the interior of the molten aluminum to be transported, and the ejector assembly 21 can be activated. The ejector assembly 21 can lift the vacuum lifting bag... A negative pressure is generated inside the vacuum lifting bag body 1, which draws molten aluminum into the vacuum lifting bag body 1. When the operator moves the vacuum lifting bag body 1, the molten aluminum can be discharged through the discharge pipe 14. When it is necessary to clean the inside of the vacuum lifting bag body 1 after long-term use, the telescopic cylinder 13 inside the placement box 11 can be activated. The telescopic cylinder 13 drives the ejector block 131 to move, which in turn moves the connecting block 221 inside the placement box 11, so that the bag cover body 2 is away from the vacuum lifting bag body 1. At this time, the vacuum lifting bag body 1 and the bag cover body 2 can be opened and cleaned. When it is necessary to install the bag cover body 2, the connecting block 221 is aligned with the top of the connecting groove 111 and inserted. At this time, due to the setting of the sealing groove 12 and the sealing block 23, the connection between the vacuum lifting bag body 1 and the bag cover body 2 is tighter, which realizes the function of facilitating the operator to clean the inside of the vacuum lifting bag body 1 and improving the use effect of the device.
[0034] Example 2:
[0035] To address the issue that existing vacuum ladle systems often require manual opening of the discharge pipe 14 when pouring molten aluminum, significantly impacting efficiency and safety, this embodiment discloses the following technical solution, as shown in Figures 4 and 5. A flip cover 141 is rotatably connected to one end of the discharge pipe 14. A connecting box 142 is fixedly connected to one side of the discharge pipe 14. A geared motor 15 is fixedly connected inside the connecting box 142. A transmission block 151 is fixedly connected to the output end of the geared motor 15. The flip cover 141 is rotatably connected to one end of the discharge pipe 14 via the transmission block 151. A cross groove 152 is provided on one side of the transmission block 151. A spring rod 153 is fixedly connected inside the connecting box 142. A locking block 155 is fixedly connected to one end of the spring rod 153, slidingly engaging with the cross groove 152. An electromagnet 154 is fixedly connected inside the connecting box 142 and electrically connected to the geared motor 15. When needed... When molten aluminum needs to be poured out, the geared motor 15 located inside the connecting box 142 can be activated. The geared motor 15 drives the transmission block 151 to rotate, which in turn causes the flip cover 141 to rotate. The flip cover 141 opens the pouring tube 14, allowing the molten aluminum to be poured out from the inside of the vacuum lifting bag body 1. After the flip cover 141 is opened, the power to the geared motor 15 can be turned off. At this time, under the action of the electromagnet 154, the spring rod 153 moves the locking block 155 and moves the locking block 155 into the cross groove 152 to prevent the flip cover 141 from rotating. After the pouring is completed, the geared motor 15 is activated, the electromagnet 154 is energized, and the electromagnet 154 attracts the locking block 155, causing the locking block 155 to move out from the inside of the cross groove 152. The geared motor 15 can then be activated to reset the flip cover 141, closing the pouring tube 14. This achieves the function of stably pouring out the molten aluminum from the inside of the vacuum lifting bag body 1, improving the safety factor during use.
