Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum electrolysis technology, and in particular to a two-level measuring auxiliary trolley for electrolytic cells. Background Technology

[0002] In the aluminum electrolysis production process, the two levels of the electrolytic cell are important indicators of the cell's condition. Measuring these two levels is a fundamental process in aluminum electrolysis production and a crucial step in ensuring the stability and safety of the process. Traditionally, measuring the two levels requires two people working together: one uses a measuring probe, and the other uses a steel ruler. After each measurement, the electrolyte deposited on the measuring probe must be cleaned, and the probe temperature must be reduced to below 500°C before measuring the next cell. Traditionally, three measuring probes are used alternately for each level measurement. Due to the large weight of these probes, they are often transported on a flatbed cart, where collisions can occur, affecting their quality. Furthermore, cleaning the measuring probes directly outside the electrolytic cell after measurement requires sweeping up the electrolyte residue, significantly increasing the workload for workers. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a two-level measuring auxiliary trolley for electrolytic cells, which can transport multiple measuring rods at one time, and at the same time facilitate the cleaning of electrolytes on the measuring rods, thereby reducing the labor intensity of workers.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] An auxiliary trolley for measuring two horizontally in an electrolytic cell includes a measuring probe, a frame, and a support frame. A positioning rod is provided in the middle of the measuring probe. The support frame is mounted on the frame and there are at least two sets of support frames. Several grooves are provided on the support frame. A through hole is provided on one set of support frames located in the middle of the frame. The measuring probe is mounted on the support frame and is positioned in the groove. The positioning rod is inserted into the through hole.

[0006] Preferably, a baffle is provided on the frame, and one end of the measuring rod is bent, with the bent section abutting against one side of the baffle.

[0007] Preferably, a connecting frame is provided at one end of the frame. The connecting frame includes a connecting rod and a placement frame.

[0008] Preferably, one end of the frame is provided with several handles, and a support plate is provided between the handles.

[0009] Preferably, a wheel frame is provided at one end of the frame, and a wheel is rotatably mounted on the wheel frame.

[0010] Preferably, the lower end of the placement frame is rotatably equipped with casters, which, together with the wheels, support the frame on the ground.

[0011] This utility model has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0012] In this invention, multiple measuring probes can be placed on a support frame. With the grooves and through holes provided, the measuring probes can be stably supported on the support frame without sliding, reducing the collision force between the measuring probes and the support frame. At the same time, each measuring probe is individually set in a groove, preventing the measuring probes from colliding with each other during transportation, thus affecting the quality of the measuring probes. This method ensures transportation efficiency and quality and also increases the service life of the measuring probes. Attached Figure Description

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of this utility model, but not all embodiments.

[0018] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] Example

[0020] like Figures 1-3 As shown, an auxiliary trolley for measuring electrolytic cells with two horizontal orientations includes a measuring rod 5, a frame 1, and a support frame 4. A positioning rod 5.1 is provided in the middle of the measuring rod 5. The measuring rod 5 is L-shaped, with one end bent. During measurement, the bent section of the measuring rod 5 extends into the electrolytic cell. A wheel frame 2 is provided at one end of the frame 1, and a wheel 3 is rotatably mounted on the wheel frame 2. A placement frame 7 is provided at the bottom of one side of the support frame 4, and a caster wheel 12 is rotatably mounted at the lower end of the placement frame 7. The caster wheel 12 and the wheel 3 together support the frame 1 on the ground. Several handles 10 are provided at one end of the frame 1. Workers can move the frame 1 by holding the handles 10 and pushing it. At the same time, the caster wheel 12 can also adjust the angle of the auxiliary trolley, making it convenient for workers to transport multiple measuring rods 5 at once in the factory, reducing the labor intensity of workers. A support plate 11 is provided between the handles 10, and a record book can be placed on the support plate 11 for workers to record the production status and the usage of the measuring rods 5 during operation.

[0021] like Figures 1-3 As shown, support frames 4 are mounted on the frame 1. There are at least two sets of support frames 4, which are arranged parallel to each other. Each support frame 4 has several grooves 4.1. One set of support frames 4 located in the middle of the frame 1 has several through holes 4.2 located on the bottom side of the grooves 4.1. Measuring probes 5 are mounted on the support frames 4, specifically at the positions of the grooves 4.1. Positioning rods 5.1 are inserted into the through holes 4.2. Multiple measuring probes 5 can be placed on the support frames 4. With the grooves 4.1 and through holes 4.2 provided, the measuring probes 5 are placed in the grooves 4.1, allowing the grooves 4.1 to... The measuring rod 5 is limited to prevent it from rolling on the support frame. The positioning rod 5.1 is inserted into the through hole 4.2. The connection between the positioning rod 5.1 and the through hole 4.2 fixes the measuring rod 5 in the groove 4.1, allowing it to be stably supported on the support frame 4 without sliding. This reduces the collision force between the measuring rod 5 and the support frame 4. At the same time, each measuring rod 5 is individually set in the groove 4.1, avoiding collisions between them during transportation and thus preventing any impact on the quality of the measuring rod 5. This method ensures transportation efficiency and quality while also increasing the service life of the measuring rod 5.

[0022] like Figures 1-3As shown, a baffle 9 is provided on the frame 1. The bent section of the measuring probe 5 abuts against one side of the baffle 9. The baffle 9 enables the measuring probe 5 to be more stably supported on the frame 1. A connecting frame is provided at one end of the frame 1. The connecting frame includes a connecting rod 6 and a placement frame 7. The connecting rod 6 and the placement frame 7 are connected. A waste box 8 is provided on the placement frame 7. The waste box 8 is located at the end aligned with the measuring probe 5. The short end of the measuring probe 5 is supported at the position of the baffle 9. After the measuring probe 5 finishes measuring, some electrolyte will adhere to the short end (bent section) of the measuring probe 5. The measuring probe 5 is moved onto the support frame 4, so that the positioning rod 5.1 of the measuring probe 5 is inserted into the through hole 4.2, and the bent section of the measuring probe 5 is aligned with the waste box 8. The worker can directly clean the electrolyte on the measuring probe 5. The baffle 9 can also prevent electrolyte debris from splashing. The electrolyte debris falls into the waste box 8, avoiding the situation where debris falls on the ground and requires secondary cleaning by the worker. It can also collect electrolyte debris for recycling and secondary processing, which greatly reduces the labor intensity of the workers and reduces the measurement time of the two levels of the electrolytic cell.

[0023] Working principle: First, place multiple measuring probes 5 on the support frame 4. The worker holds the handle 10 and pushes the frame 1 to move, transporting the multiple measuring probes 5 to the outside of the electrolytic cell. The worker picks up the measuring probes 5 and pulls the positioning rod 5.1 out of the through hole 4.2 to measure the two horizontal levels of the electrolytic cell. After the measurement is completed, the measuring probes 5 are placed back on the frame 1. The worker removes new measuring probes 5 to measure other positions of other electrolytic cells. At the same time, other workers can clean the electrolyte on the measuring probes 5 at the frame 1. The cleaned electrolyte residue falls into the waste box 8. After the measurement is completed, the multiple measuring probes 5 are transported out of the operating area through the frame 1.

[0024] This is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
