Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum electrolysis overhead crane technology, and more specifically, to a dust collection device for aluminum electrolysis overhead cranes. Background Technology
[0002] The electrolysis workshop continuously generates dust due to various operations, which accumulates in large quantities on the surface of the upper structure of the electrolysis cell, the crane track, the ground, and other places. This dust accumulation causes many problems. For example, when the crane moves, slight vibrations cause dust to fall from the top and pollute the environment. The upper structure of the electrolysis cell has multiple electric drive devices, and the dust increases the failure rate of these devices.
[0003] Currently, while the ground can be manually swept to remove dust, the surface of the electrolytic cell mechanism and the overhead crane track are difficult to clean. Moreover, manual sweeping of the dust is labor-intensive and ineffective. In addition, the main components of the dust are alumina and electrolyte powder, which are also raw materials for production. Excessive dust accumulation leads to a waste of these raw materials. Utility Model Content

[0026] Example 1
[0027] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a dust collection device for an aluminum electrolysis overhead crane, including a support frame 1. Rollers 2 are provided at both ends of the support frame 1, and actuating components are provided on both sides of the rollers 2. A dust collection box 3 is installed on the support frame 1, and a dust suction pump 4 is provided on the top of the dust collection box 3. The dust collection box 3 includes a first dust collection chamber 31 and a second dust collection chamber 32 that are internally interconnected. The first dust collection chamber 31 is located above the second dust collection chamber 32. A first dust suction component is horizontally arranged on both sides of the first dust collection chamber 31, and a second dust suction component is vertically arranged on both sides of the second dust collection chamber 32. A dust outlet pipe 12 is provided at the bottom of the second dust collection chamber 32.
[0028] By coordinating the actuation components, dust collection component one, dust pump 4, and dust collection chamber one 31, accumulated dust on the overhead crane track can be cleaned and collected, preventing excessive dust accumulation from affecting the stable and safe operation of the crane. The combined design of dust collection component two, dust pump 4, and dust collection chamber two 32 can absorb accumulated dust on the surface of the upper mechanism of the electrolytic cell and the ground, preventing excessive dust accumulation from affecting equipment operation. Simultaneously, dust collection components one and two, working together, can also absorb dust generated during crane loading and unloading, preventing excessive dust pollution of the workshop environment and harm to workers' health. The combined design of dust collection chamber one 31, dust collection chamber two 32, and dust outlet pipe 12 allows for effective recycling of accumulated dust, avoiding waste of production raw materials.
[0029] In a specific embodiment of this invention, the actuating component includes a fixed plate 13, and a plurality of actuating rods 14 are provided at the bottom of the fixed plate 13. When the dust removal device reciprocates on the crane track, the actuating rods 13 can repeatedly remove the dust accumulated on the crane track, and then the dust suction component is used to absorb the removed dust, thereby achieving rapid dust removal from the crane track.
[0030] In a specific embodiment of this invention, a rotating shaft 20 is installed inside the dust outlet pipe 12, and an auger plate 21 is installed on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 20. A motor 19 is installed outside the dust outlet pipe 12, and the output end of the motor 19 is connected to the rotating shaft 20 via a coupling. The motor 19, the rotating shaft 20, and the auger plate 21 work together to accelerate the dust discharge speed and achieve rapid recovery of accumulated dust.
[0031] In a specific embodiment of this example, the dust collection component includes a dust collection pipe 5 and a dust collection hood 6. One end of the dust collection pipe 5 is connected to the interior of the dust collection chamber 31, and the other end of the dust collection pipe 5 is connected to the dust collection hood 6. A solenoid valve 7 is installed on the dust collection pipe 5.
[0032] In a specific embodiment of this example, the second dust collection component includes a second dust collection pipe 8, a telescopic hose 9, and a second dust collection hood 10. One end of the second dust collection pipe 8 is connected to the interior of the second dust collection chamber 32, and the other end of the second dust collection pipe 8 is connected to the telescopic hose 9. The other end of the telescopic hose 9 is connected to the second dust collection hood 10. A second solenoid valve 11 is installed on the second dust collection pipe 8.
[0033] In this specific embodiment, an electric telescopic rod 18 is provided at the bottom of the support frame 1, and a connecting plate 17 is provided on the second dust collection hood 10. The driving end of the electric telescopic rod 18 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 17. The electric telescopic rod 18 can adjust the height of the second dust collection hood 10, thereby increasing the dust removal speed of the upper mechanism of the electrolytic cell and the ground.
[0034] In a specific embodiment of this invention, filter cartridge 311 and filter cartridge 322 are respectively provided in dust collection chamber 31 and dust collection chamber 32. The pore size of filter cartridge 311 is smaller than that of filter cartridge 321. Filter cartridge 311 and filter cartridge 321 work together to filter the dust in dust collection chambers 31 and 322, allowing the dust to be collected in the dust collection box 3.
[0035] In a specific embodiment of this invention, an air pipe 15 is provided at the top of the dust collection chamber 31, and a one-way valve 16 is installed on the air pipe 15. The air pipe 15 can discharge filtered gas, and the one-way valve 16 can realize the one-way flow of gas, preventing gas from clogging the air pipe 15 during the dust collection process and affecting the gas discharge.
[0036] The working principle is as follows: Roller 2 is movably installed inside the overhead crane track and can move back and forth within the track. As roller 2 drives support frame 1 to move back and forth along the track, lever 14 removes accumulated dust from the track. Dust pump 4 starts, allowing the dust to be absorbed through dust hood 6 and enters dust collection chamber 31 via suction pipe 5. After being filtered by filter cartridge 311, the dust falls into dust collection chamber 32 for collection, and the filtered air is discharged through air pipe 15. Simultaneously, electric telescopic rod 18 lowers connecting plate 17, causing dust hood 10 to descend, absorbing dust from the upper structure of the electrolytic cell and the ground. The dust enters dust collection chamber 32 and is filtered by filter cartridge 321. Filter cartridge 311 can also perform secondary filtration on this portion of the dust, reducing the amount of dust in the air. After dust collection, the motor 19 drives the rotating shaft 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the auger plate 21 to rotate, allowing the dust in the dust collection chamber 32 to be discharged through the dust outlet pipe 12, thus realizing the recycling of dust.
[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
