Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooling device technology, specifically a cooling device for the production of architectural aluminum profiles. Background Technology
[0002] Most aluminum profiles are formed by extrusion. Because the extruded aluminum profiles have a high temperature, they need to be cooled to improve their mechanical strength and performance, so as to facilitate the next processing step. In the current technology, air cooling is usually used. However, air cooling is not very uniform in heat dissipation, which can easily lead to deformation in subsequent processing. In addition, air cooling is slow and the process interval is long, which reduces production efficiency.
[0003] Application number CN202221693432.1 discloses an aluminum profile cooling device. The workbench is a hollow frame shape, with a bracket installed on the bottom edge of the frame. A connecting frame is installed on the side of the workbench, and a water tank is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting frame. A water pump is installed in the water tank. Support rollers are installed at the left and right ends of the workbench. Three L-shaped support frames are installed on the outside of the workbench. A water inlet pipe is installed on the outside of the leftmost support frame. A water outlet pipe is installed on the top of the inner side of the three L-shaped support frames. A water outlet is installed on the bottom surface of the water outlet pipe. One end of the water inlet pipe is connected to the water outlet pipe, and the other end of the water inlet pipe is connected to the water pump. The advantage of this utility model is that by installing a water outlet pipe at the top, the aluminum profile is water-cooled when it enters the cooling area, which can quickly remove the heat from the aluminum profile and improve the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0004] During operation, the cooling device requires immersing aluminum profiles in the cooling zone for water cooling. However, unsecured aluminum profiles may present the following problems during immersion: 1. Water flow impact or equipment vibration during cooling may cause the aluminum profiles to shift or even fall off, posing a risk of injuring operators or damaging the equipment; 2. When unsecured, the position of the aluminum profiles needs to be frequently adjusted manually, and operators are likely to come into contact with high-temperature components or cooling water, increasing the probability of burns; 3. When the aluminum profiles are freely immersed in the coolant, they may tilt or float, resulting in localized cooling rate differences and causing deformation; 4. When unsecured, the aluminum profiles may collide with the pool wall or other workpieces, causing scratches or damage to the oxide film, affecting the appearance and corrosion resistance of the finished product. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cooling device for the production of architectural aluminum profiles, which solves the problem of unstable operation of aluminum profiles when water-cooled.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model relates to a cooling device for the production of architectural aluminum profiles, comprising a cooling device, a lifting structure, and a clamping assembly. The lifting structure is installed on the outer walls of the left and right sides of the cooling device. The clamping assembly is fixedly installed in the middle of the lifting structure. The clamping assembly includes a double slide rail, with sliders slidably connected to the inner walls of the left and right ends of the double slide rail. A double-headed rod is provided at the bottom of the slider. A clamping rod one and a clamping rod two are respectively hinged to the two ends of the double-headed rod. The middle ends of the clamping rod one and the clamping rod two are hinged together. A hook is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the hinged end of the clamping rod one and the double-headed rod. A locking block is provided on the outer wall of the clamping rod two near the middle end of the hook. The hook is sleeved on the outside of the locking block. The purpose of this setup is that, during the use of the cooling device, the operator places the aluminum profile under the double slide rails of the clamping assembly. By pushing the slider along the double slide rails, the double-headed rods move. The hinged design of the double-headed rods causes clamping rod one and clamping rod two to retract inwards simultaneously. The hooks and locking blocks cooperate to lock the aluminum profile. The connecting strap further reinforces the clamping stability. According to the length of the aluminum profile, the height of the round locking rod is adjusted through the positioning slot on the support rod. The locking rod is inserted into the fixed position, and the lifting structure is activated. The locking rod drives the clamping assembly and the aluminum profile down into the water-cooling pool. The mesh panel unfolds to cover both sides of the pool opening to prevent cooling water from splashing. After cooling is completed, the lifting structure lifts the aluminum profile out of the water-cooling pool, and the mesh panel automatically closes with the water flow to reduce water evaporation. The clamping assembly is then released. The aluminum profile is removed and moved to the next workstation via wheels at the bottom of the support legs. Clamping rods one and two are hinged together by double-headed rods to form a four-bar linkage, which can adapt to the clamping requirements of aluminum profiles of different sizes and avoid clamping failure due to dimensional deviations. The hooks are sleeved on the outside of the clamping block to form a mechanical self-locking mechanism, preventing loosening due to vibration or external force during clamping and ensuring that the aluminum profile is firmly fixed. The two hooks move synchronously through a high-tension connecting belt, improving clamping symmetry and uniform force distribution. When the slider slides along the double slide rails, the clamping distance can be quickly adjusted to adapt to aluminum profiles with different cross-sectional shapes, reducing manual adjustment time. The hinged structure eliminates the cumbersome steps of traditional bolt tightening; clamping or releasing can be completed simply by pushing the slider, improving work efficiency.
[0008] Furthermore, a connecting strap is fixedly attached to one side of each of the two hooks, and the connecting strap is in a taut state. The purpose of this arrangement is to ensure that during the use of the cooling device, the two hooks move synchronously through the high-tension connecting strap, thereby improving clamping symmetry and uniform force distribution.
[0009] Furthermore, the cooling device includes a water-cooled pool, with wire mesh panels hinged to the inner walls of both sides of the top of the pool, and two of the wire mesh panels covering the inner walls of the top of the water-cooled pool. The purpose of this arrangement is that during the use of the cooling device, the clamping assembly lowers the aluminum profile into the water-cooled pool, the wire mesh panels unfold to cover both sides of the pool opening to prevent cooling water from splashing, and after cooling is complete, the lifting structure raises the aluminum profile away from the water-cooled pool, and the wire mesh panels automatically close with the water flow to reduce water evaporation.
[0010] Furthermore, support legs are fixedly installed on the outer walls of both sides of the bottom surface of the water-cooled pool, and wheels are rotatably connected to the bottom ends of the support legs. The purpose of this arrangement is to allow the cooling device to be moved to the next work station during use by means of the wheels at the bottom of the support legs.
[0011] Furthermore, support rods are welded to the outer walls of both sides of the water-cooling pool. A vertical row of positioning slots is respectively opened on the front and rear outer walls of each support rod. Limiting grooves are respectively opened on the opposing sides of the two support rods, and round locking rods are slidably connected to the inner walls of the limiting grooves. The purpose of this arrangement is that, during the use of the cooling device, the height of the round locking rods is adjusted according to the length of the aluminum profile through the positioning slots on the support rods. The rods are then inserted into their fixed positions, and the lifting structure is activated. The locking rods then drive the clamping assembly and the aluminum profile down into the water-cooling pool for cooling.
[0012] Furthermore, both ends of the dual slide rails are fixedly connected to two circular locking rods, and a plug is inserted into one of the positioning slots of the support rod near the circular locking rod, with the plug positioned at the bottom of the circular locking rod. The purpose of this arrangement is to allow the height of the circular locking rod to be adjusted via the positioning slot on the support rod and the plug inserted to secure its position during use of the cooling device.
[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] (1) This utility model uses clamping rods, hooks and locking blocks. Clamping rod one and clamping rod two are hinged by double-headed rods to form a four-bar linkage mechanism, which can adapt to the clamping requirements of aluminum profiles of different sizes and avoid clamping failure due to size deviation. The hook is sleeved on the outside of the locking block to form a mechanical self-locking mechanism. The hinged structure eliminates the cumbersome steps of traditional bolt fastening. Only the slider needs to be pushed to complete the clamping or release.
[0015] (2) By setting up hooks and connecting belts, the hooks are sleeved on the outside of the clamping block to form a mechanical self-locking mechanism, preventing loosening caused by vibration or external force during clamping, and ensuring that the aluminum profile is firmly fixed. The two hooks move synchronously through the high-tension connecting belt, improving the clamping symmetry and uniform force distribution.

A locking block 306 is provided on the outer wall of the side of the clamping rod 2 305 near the middle end of the hook 307. The hook 307 is sleeved on the outside of the locking block 306. The purpose of this setup is that, during the use of the cooling device 1, the operator places the aluminum profile under the double slide rail 301 of the clamping assembly 3, and pushes the slider 302 to slide along the double slide rail, causing the double-headed rod 303 to move. The hinged design of the double-headed rod 303 allows the clamping rod 1 304 and clamping rod 2 305 to retract inward simultaneously. The hook 307 cooperates with the locking block 306 to lock the aluminum profile. The connecting strap 308 further reinforces the clamping stability. According to the length of the aluminum profile, the height of the round locking rod 205 is adjusted through the positioning slot 202 on the support rod 201, and the insertion rod 203 is fixed in place. The lifting structure 2 is activated, and the locking rod 205 drives the clamping assembly 3 and the aluminum profile to descend into the water cooling pool 101. The mesh plate 102 unfolds to cover both sides of the pool opening to prevent cooling water from splashing. After cooling is completed, the lifting structure 2 lifts the aluminum profile out of the water cooling pool, and the mesh plate 102 automatically closes with the water flow, reducing... With minimal moisture evaporation, the clamping assembly 3 is released, and the aluminum profile is removed. It is then moved to the next workstation via the wheels 104 at the bottom of the support leg 103. Clamping rod 1 304 and clamping rod 2 305 are hinged together by double-headed rod 303 to form a four-bar linkage mechanism, which can adapt to the clamping requirements of aluminum profiles of different sizes and avoid clamping failure due to size deviation. The hook 307 is sleeved on the outside of the locking block 306 to form a mechanical self-locking mechanism, preventing loosening due to vibration or external force during clamping and ensuring that the aluminum profile is firmly fixed. The two hooks 207 move synchronously through the high-tension connecting belt 308 to improve clamping symmetry and uniform force distribution. When the slider 302 slides along the double slide rail 301, the clamping distance can be quickly adjusted to adapt to aluminum profiles with different cross-sectional shapes, reducing manual adjustment time. The hinged structure eliminates the cumbersome steps of traditional bolt tightening. Clamping or releasing can be completed simply by pushing the slider, improving work efficiency.

The purpose of this arrangement is that during the use of the cooling device 1, the two hooks 207 move synchronously through the high-tension connecting strap 308, thereby improving the clamping symmetry and uniform force distribution.
[0027] The cooling device 1 includes a water-cooled pool 101, with wire mesh panels 102 hinged to the inner walls of both sides of the top of the water-cooled pool 101. The two wire mesh panels 102 cover the inner walls of the top of the water-cooled pool 101. The purpose of this arrangement is that during the use of the cooling device 1, the clamping assembly 3 lowers the aluminum profile into the water-cooled pool 101, and the wire mesh panels 102 unfold to cover both sides of the pool opening to prevent cooling water from splashing.
