Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal smelting accessories technology, specifically a suspension rod. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, stainless steel cathode suspension rods are commonly used in the electrolysis of copper. In order to keep the suspension rods stable and in the electrolyte for a long time, hooks are usually installed on the suspension rods for suspension support.
[0003] Chinese patent CN214937873U discloses a long-life, environmentally friendly suspension rod. Its key technical features include: a rod body with hooks detachably connected to both sides of its top end; each hook includes a lug; a connecting shaft is located at the bottom of the lug; connecting grooves for engaging the connecting shaft are formed on both sides of the top end of the rod body; locking blocks are formed on both sides of the outer peripheral wall of the bottom end of the connecting shaft; locking slots for engaging the locking blocks are formed on both sides of the inner peripheral wall of the connecting grooves along the length direction; and an annular groove communicating with the locking slots is formed around the circumference of the connecting shaft. This suspension rod is suspended at the cathode of a smelting equipment via hooks. However, the position of the hooks is fixed, and their angle cannot be adjusted arbitrarily as needed, resulting in poor applicability. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a suspension rod to solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0005] This utility model achieves the above-mentioned objective through the following technical solution: a suspension rod, including a rod body, on which two ball seats are provided, and ball heads are provided inside the ball seats. The ball heads can rotate freely inside the ball seats, and each ball head is provided with a hook. A clamping device is provided on the ball seats, and the clamping device includes a clamp and a screwing assembly connected to the clamp. The screwing assembly is used to screw in or out so that the clamp holds or releases the ball head.
[0006] As a further feature of this invention, the screwing assembly includes a threaded rod threadedly connected to a ball seat, and the clamp is rotatably connected to the threaded rod.
[0007] As a further feature of this invention, the clamp has a receiving groove at one end away from the threaded rod, and the receiving groove fits the spherical surface of the ball head.
[0008] As a further feature of this invention, a knob is fixedly connected to the end of the threaded rod away from the clamp.
[0009] As a further feature of this invention, the hook includes a threaded sleeve fixedly connected to the ball head, an adjusting screw is threadedly connected inside the threaded sleeve, and a lug is connected to the adjusting screw.
[0010] As a further feature of this invention, the threaded sleeve, adjusting screw, and lug are all made of stainless steel.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] When the angle of the hook needs to be adjusted, this utility model allows the screwing assembly to be unscrewed to release the ball head, thus releasing the ball head. Then, the hook can be turned so that the ball head rotates in any direction until the hook rotates to a suitable angle. Then, the screwing assembly can be turned inward so that the clamp abuts against the ball head, thereby clamping the ball head with the inner wall of the ball seat and locking the angle. Through this operation, the angle of the hook can be adjusted at will as needed, allowing suspension in different positions and making the suspension rod more versatile. Attached Figure Description

[0016] 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.
[0017] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, a suspension rod includes a rod body 1 with two ball seats 2 on the rod body 1. A ball head 3 is disposed inside each ball seat 2. The inner surface of the ball seat 2 is a high-precision spherical curved surface that fits tightly against the ball head 3. The ball head 3 can rotate freely inside the ball seat 2, and each ball head 3 is provided with a hook. A clamping device is provided on the ball seat 2, comprising a clamp 4 and a screwing assembly connected to the clamp 4. The screwing assembly is used to screw in or out to clamp or release the ball head 3 from the clamp 4. This allows for adjustment of the hooks as needed. When adjusting the angle, the screw assembly can be unscrewed to release the restriction on the ball head 3, thereby releasing the ball head 3. Then, the hook can be turned to allow the ball head 3 to rotate in any direction until the hook rotates to the appropriate angle. Then, the screw assembly can be turned inward to allow the clamp 4 to press against the ball head 3, thereby clamping the ball head 3 with the inner wall of the ball seat 2 and locking the angle. Through this operation, the angle of the hook can be adjusted at will as needed, allowing suspension in different positions and making the suspension bar more versatile.
[0018] Please see Figure 2 As shown, the screwing assembly includes a threaded rod 5 threadedly connected to the ball seat 2, and a clamp 4 rotatably connected to the threaded rod 5. By manipulating the threaded rod 5 to screw in or out of the ball seat 2, the clamp 4 can be moved closer to or away from the ball head 3, thereby clamping or releasing the ball head 3. The operation is relatively convenient and simple. A receiving groove is provided at the end of the clamp 4 away from the threaded rod 5, and the receiving groove fits the spherical curved surface of the ball head 3. When the clamp 4 clamps the ball head 3, the ball head 3 will be embedded in the receiving groove, thereby making the fit between the clamp 4 and the ball head 3 tighter and ensuring the firmness of the clamping of the ball head 3. A knob 6 is fixedly connected at the end of the threaded rod 5 away from the clamp 4. By holding the knob 6 and rotating it, the threaded rod 5 can be screwed. The knob 6 can be used as the force point for screwing the threaded rod 5, making the operation easier and less strenuous.
[0019] Please see Figure 2 As shown, the hook includes a threaded sleeve 7 fixedly connected to the ball head 3. An adjusting screw 8 is threadedly connected inside the threaded sleeve 7, and a lug 9 is connected to the adjusting screw 8. By screwing the adjusting screw 8 into or out of the threaded sleeve 7, the lug 9 can be raised or lowered, thereby adjusting the length of the hook and making the hook more versatile. The threaded sleeve 7, adjusting screw 8 and lug 9 are all made of stainless steel, which has high strength and hardness, is not easy to rust, and has good durability.
