Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of anode steel claw collection technology, specifically to an anode steel claw collection device. Background Technology

[0002] In the aluminum electrolysis production process, the anode steel claw is a key component connecting the anode carbon block and the aluminum electrolysis cell busbar. Its welding quality directly affects the stability and energy consumption of electrolysis production. After the welding process is completed, a large amount of heat will remain on the surface of the anode steel claw, with the temperature usually reaching hundreds of degrees Celsius. This makes the collection of anode steel claws a great challenge.

[0003] Existing anode steel claw collection equipment mostly relies on manual handling using overhead cranes and simple tools. This method of transportation is not only inefficient but also poses serious safety hazards. Therefore, further optimization is needed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an anode steel claw collection device, which solves the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: an anode steel claw collecting device, comprising a fixed platform, a conveying platform, and a collecting frame, wherein the conveying platform is located at the right end of the fixed platform, and the collecting frame is located at the right side of the conveying platform;

[0006] Several brackets are provided at the edge of the upper surface of the fixed platform. The inner wall of the bracket is provided with guide wheels. The groove of the guide wheel is provided with a push plate for pushing the anode steel claw to collect. An electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed platform. The output end of the electric telescopic rod is connected to the left end of the push plate through a pin.

[0007] The upper surface of the conveyor table is provided with a movable component, and an anode steel claw body is placed on top of the movable component. The right end of the conveyor table is provided with an adjusting component that works in conjunction with the movable component. The moving end of the adjusting component is provided with a fan for cooling the anode steel claw body.

[0008] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0009] This anode steel claw collection device abandons the traditional method of manual transportation using overhead cranes and simple tools. It adopts an electric telescopic rod to drive a push plate to push the anode steel claw body. With the help of moving parts, the steel claws are automatically transported and stacked on the conveyor table. Under their own weight, they are rotated 90° into the inside of the collection frame, which significantly improves the collection efficiency. At the same time, it avoids manual contact with the high-temperature steel claws, eliminates the safety hazards such as burns, and ensures the personal safety of operators. The adjustment part on the right end of the conveyor table is equipped with a fan, which can cool down the anode steel claws during the movement, making it convenient for subsequent transportation.

[0010] This anode steel claw collecting device features guide wheels and push plates inside the support frame that work together to reduce friction during the movement of the steel claws, making the pushing process smoother. The horizontal plate on the upper surface of the collecting frame and the top arc-shaped protrusion design facilitate the accurate placement and stacking of the anode steel claws, preventing the steel claws from sliding or tipping over in the collecting frame, thus improving the standardization and orderliness of the collection.

[0011] This anode steel claw collecting device features a bidirectional lead screw and a moving rod in the adjusting component, which allows the fan to adjust its position synchronously with the movement of the moving component, ensuring effective cooling throughout the entire steel claw conveying process.

[0018] 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.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides an anode steel claw collecting device, including a fixed platform 1, a conveying platform 2 and a collecting frame 3. The conveying platform 2 is located at the right end of the fixed platform 1, and the collecting frame 3 is located at the right side of the conveying platform 2.

[0020] Several brackets 4 are provided at the edge of the upper surface of the fixed platform 1. The inner wall of the bracket 4 is provided with guide wheels 5. The groove of the guide wheel 5 is provided with a push plate 6 for pushing the anode steel claw to collect. An electric telescopic rod 7 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed platform 1. The output end of the electric telescopic rod 7 is connected to the left end of the push plate 6 through a pin.

[0021] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the fixed platform 1 includes a bottom support frame, and the height of the fixed platform 1 is lower than the height of the conveyor platform 2, while the push plate 6 is higher than the height of the conveyor platform 2.

[0022] A curved plate is fixedly connected to the left end of the push plate 6, and a fixing hole is opened at the bottom end of the curved plate. The output end of the electric telescopic rod 7 is connected to the fixing hole through a pin, which facilitates quick disassembly and assembly and makes it easier to maintain later.

[0023] The upper surface of the conveyor table 2 is provided with a movable part 8, and an anode steel claw body 9 is placed on top of the movable part 8. The right end of the conveyor table 2 is provided with an adjusting part that works in conjunction with the movable part 8. The moving end of the adjusting part is provided with a fan 10 for cooling the anode steel claw body 9.

[0024] The movable component 8 includes a movable plate 801 slidably connected to the top of the fixed platform 1, a screw 802 disposed inside the slide rail of the fixed platform 1, and a motor 803 disposed at the right end of the fixed platform 1 for driving the screw 802 to rotate. The adjusting component includes a support rod 11 fixedly connected to the right end of the fixed platform 1, a bidirectional lead screw 12 disposed inside the support rod 11 and meshing with the screw 802, and a movable rod 13 disposed on the surface of the bidirectional lead screw 12. The fan 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the movable rod 13.

[0025] An auxiliary rod 14 is fixedly connected to the left end of the fixed platform 1. A reinforcing plate 15 is fixedly connected to the side of the auxiliary rod 14. The other end of the reinforcing plate 15 is fixedly connected to the left end of the fixed platform 1. A horizontal plate 16 is provided on the upper surface of the collection frame 3. An arc-shaped protrusion 17 is provided on the top of the horizontal plate 16, which can reduce the friction with the anode steel claw body 9 and facilitate its sliding to the right, so as to facilitate the subsequent stacking of anode steel claws. The bracket 4 includes a U-shaped plate 18 fixedly connected to the top, and a guide wheel 5 is located inside the U-shaped plate 18.

[0026] Since the two sides of the push plate 6 are conical and located in the groove of the guide wheel 5, when the electric telescopic rod 7 is started, the push plate 6 drives the guide wheel 5 to rotate, which can guide the push plate 6, reduce the resistance of the push plate 6, reduce energy consumption, and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0027] Starting the motor 803 (rotating in the forward or reverse direction) can drive the screw 802 to rotate. Since the connecting end of the moving plate 801 is threaded to the surface of the screw 802, the moving plate 801 is moved left and right synchronously. Through the moving plate 801, the anode steel claw body 9 can be moved to the fixed platform 1. Then, the electric telescopic rod 7 drives the push plate 6 to move to the right, which can push the anode steel claw body 9 into the collection frame 3, so that it automatically stacks inside the collection frame 3, which is convenient for later transportation.

[0028] Since the left end of the bidirectional lead screw 12 is connected to the helical gear on the surface of the screw 802 through the helical gear, the bidirectional lead screw 12 is rotated synchronously. Since one end of the moving rod 13 is sleeved on the surface of the bidirectional lead screw 12, the fan 10 is moved left and right with the cooperation of the moving rod 13. The fan 10 is used to cool the anode steel claw body 9, which facilitates its subsequent transportation.

[0029] All electrical components mentioned in this article are connected to an external main controller and 380V AC mains power, and the main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer that provides control.

[0030] In this invention, the working steps of the device are as follows:

[0031] In use, start the motor 803, adjust the moving plate 801 to move it to the left to the position of the auxiliary rod 14, transfer the welded anode steel claw body 9 to the top of the moving plate 801, then the moving plate 801 moves to the right, and at the same time start the fan 10. Then, start the electric telescopic rod 7 to drive the push plate 6 to move to the right. The anode steel claw body 9 then relies on its own gravity to rotate 90° into the inside of the collection frame 3. This cycle is repeated to quickly collect the anode steel claw body 9 for later hoisting.

[0032] 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.
