Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of intermediate alloy production equipment, specifically to an alloy ingot free crusher system. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of master alloys for titanium alloys, the aluminothermic reduction reaction has become one of the main production methods due to its unique advantages, and the alloy ingots produced by this reaction are the key products. To ensure the quality and production efficiency of the final product, the coarse crushing of alloy ingots is a crucial step and its role cannot be ignored. Firstly, alloy ingots often have uneven coloring and porous areas on their surface. Only by coarsely crushing them into blocks can these defects be thoroughly removed, ensuring that the final product meets quality standards. Secondly, due to different production processes, the weight of alloy ingots produced by various manufacturers varies from several hundred kilograms to over one ton. Ingots that are too large cannot be directly fed into crushers. Furthermore, during alloy crushing, the ratio of feed particle size to product particle size significantly affects crushing efficiency and yield. Only by coarsely crushing the alloy ingots into appropriately sized blocks can favorable conditions be created for subsequent crushing operations.
[0003] However, most intermediate alloy manufacturers currently use manual sledgehammer crushing to process alloy ingots. This traditional method has many drawbacks. From a safety perspective, due to the hardness of the alloy ingots, alloy pieces are easily scattered during the hammering process, posing a serious threat to the personal safety of operators and creating a significant safety hazard. From a production efficiency perspective, manual crushing is time-consuming, labor-intensive, requires a large investment of manpower, and has low production efficiency, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production.
[0004] In conclusion, it is urgent to develop a system that can automatically crush alloy ingots and is safe and efficient. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a simple, safe and efficient mobile alloy ingot free crushing system, which significantly improves production efficiency and meets the market demand for large-scale production of intermediate alloys for titanium alloys.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is:
[0007] This utility model provides an alloy ingot free-crushing hammer system, comprising:
[0008] Hammer stand,
[0009] The pinwheel cycloidal reducer is mounted on the hammer frame, and its shaft is connected to a large sprocket.
[0010] A small sprocket, linked to a large sprocket via a roller chain, drives a lower sprocket shaft to drive a lower double sprocket.
[0011] An upper sprocket shaft and an upper double sprocket mounted thereon, wherein the upper double sprocket and the lower double sprocket are connected by a sleeve roller chain;
[0012] A lever disposed on a sleeve roller chain, the lever having a first boss;
[0013] The hydraulic breaker has a second boss on its side that mates with the boss, and a hammer head with a cone angle of 60°-90° at the bottom. The hydraulic breaker slides along a vertical hydraulic breaker track.
[0014] Furthermore, the breaker is equipped with a motion limiter.
[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a transparent protective cover plate covering the side uprights of the hammer frame;
[0016] Furthermore, it also includes a handrail located at the rear of the hammer frame.
[0017] Furthermore, the bottom of the hammer frame is equipped with swivel casters with braking devices.
[0018] The advantages and positive effects of this utility model are:
[0019] 1. Highly efficient and labor-saving automated crushing: This utility model innovatively adopts a gravity impact mechanism of free fall of the breaker hammer, replacing the traditional manual crushing operation mode. Through mechanical power, the breaker hammer continuously and cyclically strikes the alloy ingot, which not only effectively reduces the physical exertion of operators, but also enables long-term uninterrupted and stable operation. Compared with manual operation, it can significantly improve crushing efficiency by 3-5 times, significantly shorten the production cycle, and meet the needs of large-scale production.
[0020] 2. Scientific Design Enhances Crushing Efficiency: The unique design of the conical hammerhead is one of the core advantages of this system. Its tip-shaped energy-concentrating structure can highly concentrate the impact force in a tiny contact area, forming a local pressure several times that of ordinary hammerheads. Actual testing shows that when processing alloy ingots of the same size, the conical hammerhead can increase crushing efficiency by more than 40%, effectively overcoming the crushing challenges posed by the hardness of the alloy, while reducing the number of impacts, lowering equipment energy consumption, and improving the overall economic efficiency of the crushing operation.
[0021] 3. Flexible Mobility Ensures Operational Safety: The high-performance casters at the bottom of the system allow for flexible movement of the equipment. Operators can easily push the equipment to different work positions, eliminating the need for manual handling of heavy alloy ingots. This saves labor costs and eliminates potential safety hazards such as bumps and injuries during handling. Simultaneously, the convenient mobility allows the equipment to quickly respond to multi-station production needs, further optimizing the production process and improving space utilization.
[0022] 4. Ensuring Personnel Safety: A high-strength, transparent protective cover encloses the crushing operation area. This cover boasts excellent impact resistance, effectively blocking flying alloy debris and sharp fragments during the crushing process. The transparent design allows operators to clearly observe the crushing process without needing close contact with hazardous areas, ensuring their personal safety.
[0023] 5. Simplified Design Balancing Practicality and Economy: The system's overall architecture is simple, using modular and standardized component combinations to achieve core functions. This concise structural design not only reduces equipment manufacturing costs and maintenance difficulty, but also significantly lowers equipment failure rates, shortens equipment commissioning cycles, and improves return on investment. It possesses both technological advancement and economic practicality. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The following embodiments are merely descriptive and not limiting, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0030] A free-running breaker system for alloy ingots includes: a hammer frame 1; a cycloidal pinwheel reducer 3 mounted on the hammer frame 1, the shaft of which is connected to a large sprocket 4; a small sprocket 11 linked to the large sprocket 4 via a roller chain 5, the small sprocket 11 driving a lower sprocket shaft 13 to drive a lower double sprocket 17; an upper sprocket shaft 8 and an upper double sprocket 9 mounted thereon, the upper double sprocket 9 and the lower double sprocket 17 being connected via a sleeve roller chain 10 (16A-K type auxiliary plate); a lever 6 provided on the sleeve roller chain 10, the lever 6 having a first boss 20; a breaker hammer 7, the side of which has a second boss 18 that mates with the boss 20, and a hammer head with a cone angle of 60°-90° at the bottom, the breaker hammer 7 sliding along a vertical breaker hammer track 15. A motion limiter 19 is installed on the breaker hammer 7.
[0031] To prevent injury to operators from flying alloy blocks, a transparent protective cover plate 12 is placed on the side upright plate 16 of the hammer frame 1.
[0032] For ease of movement, a braking device is provided at the bottom of the hammer frame 1. 120 cast iron swivel casters 2. Handrail 14 at the rear of the hammer frame 1.
[0033] The working principle of this utility model:
[0034] After the alloy ingot is placed onto the crushing platform, the operator uses the side handles 14 to move the free-standing breaker system to a suitable position, positioning the breaker 7 above the alloy ingot and determining the hammer's striking point. The system power is then turned on, and the pinwheel cycloidal reducer 3 begins operation, driving the large sprocket 4 to rotate. The large sprocket 4 transmits power to the small sprocket 11 via the roller chain 5. The small sprocket 11 drives the lower sprocket shaft 13 to rotate, which in turn drives the lower double sprocket 17 mounted thereon to rotate. As the lower double sprocket 17 rotates, it drives the upper double sprocket 9 to rotate via the sleeve roller chain 10. Simultaneously, the lever 6 installed on the sleeve roller chain 10 rotates. When the lever 6 reaches the bottom and continues to move upward, the first protrusion 20 of the lever 6 will overlap with the second protrusion 18 of the breaker hammer 7, driving the breaker hammer 7 to move upward. When the lever 6 reaches the position of the upper sprocket shaft 8, the lever 6 will make a circular motion along the upper sprocket shaft 8. The contact area between the second protrusion 18 of the breaker hammer 7 and the protrusion 19 of the lever 6 gradually decreases. When the two completely separate, due to the movement limit 19 on both sides of the breaker hammer 7, the breaker hammer 7 will fall freely along the breaker hammer track 15 and land on the surface of the alloy ingot to be crushed. With the continuous operation of the lever 6, the breaker hammer 7 and the lever 6 repeatedly contact and separate, and the breaker hammer rises and falls repeatedly, continuously striking the alloy ingot to achieve rapid crushing of the alloy ingot. During the crushing process, the operator can observe the crushing of the alloy ingot through the protective cover plate 12 to avoid injury to the operator from the flying alloy pieces. The operator can move the crushing system to a suitable position at any time to continue the crushing operation.
[0035] This invention is applied to the rapid crushing of aluminothermic reduction reaction alloy ingots.
[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
