Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of aluminum ingot processing technology, and in particular relates to an aluminum ingot forming and cooling device. Background Technology

[0002] After the aluminum block is melted into a molten state, it is poured into a forming container and cooled to be cast into an aluminum ingot. The formed aluminum ingot still has a lot of heat. After the aluminum ingot is separated from the container, it needs to be cooled so that the aluminum ingot can dissipate heat quickly for subsequent work.

[0003] Currently, the cooling of aluminum ingots is mostly achieved by immersing them in a cooling pool. For example, Chinese Patent CN219817957U discloses a cooling circulation device for aluminum ingot forming, comprising: a housing with an internal cavity and an opening at the top; a cooling pool located at the top opening of the housing; a water circulation mechanism for circulating water in the cooling pool, installed at the bottom of the cooling pool; and an air cooling mechanism for cooling the water circulation mechanism. By using the water circulation mechanism to circulate and cool the cooling pool for aluminum ingot forming, and the air cooling mechanism to cool the water circulation mechanism, the device reduces the amount of cooling water used for aluminum ingot forming and significantly improves the cooling effect, thus increasing production efficiency. However, this device requires repeatedly adding and removing aluminum ingots from the cooling pool, greatly reducing work efficiency and making it impractical. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an aluminum ingot forming and cooling device to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the specific technical solution of this utility model is as follows: An aluminum ingot forming and cooling device includes a frame, on which a chain conveying assembly for conveying aluminum ingots is provided, and an intermittent drive mechanism for driving the chain conveying assembly is provided on the frame. A cooling pool is provided inside the frame below the chain conveying assembly. Support plates are provided on both sides of the upper surface of the frame, and multiple spray pipes are provided between the two support plates. Multiple nozzles are provided at equal intervals along the length of the bottom of the spray pipes. A blower hood is mounted on one side of the frame located on the support plate via a bracket, and the blower hood is connected to a blower fan via a blower pipe.

[0006] Preferably, the intermittent drive mechanism includes a motor, which is mounted on the side wall of the frame via a motor frame. The motor shaft is connected to a drive disc, and a driven disc is sleeved on the connecting shaft of the chain conveyor assembly. The surface of the driven disc is provided with a plurality of notches arranged in a circumferential array, and the side wall of the drive disc is provided with protrusions distributed corresponding to the notches.

[0007] Preferably, a convex plate is formed between each pair of adjacent notches, and the sidewall of the convex plate is provided with an arc-shaped groove, the curvature of which matches the curvature of the drive disc.

[0008] Preferably, the cooling pool is connected to a water guide pipe via a water pump, and the water guide pipe is connected to each spray pipe via a branch pipe.

[0009] Preferably, the plurality of spray pipes are distributed at equal intervals along the forward direction of the chain conveyor assembly, and the length of the spray pipes is perpendicular to the length of the chain conveyor assembly.

[0010] Preferably, a water guide plate is provided above the inner cavity of the cooling pool, and inclined surfaces are provided on both sides of the upper surface of the water guide plate, and a perforated plate is provided in the middle part of the water guide plate.

[0011] The aluminum ingot forming and cooling device of this utility model has the following advantages:

[0012] 1. This utility model, through the intermittent drive mechanism, allows the aluminum ingot to move only a short distance at a time, thereby greatly extending the time the aluminum ingot stays under the blower hood of the spray pipe machine, which is beneficial for cooling the aluminum ingot. Multiple spray pipes can spray the aluminum ingot in the direction of its movement, so that an aluminum ingot can be sprayed multiple times during its movement, thereby improving the cooling effect. At the same time, the blower hood helps to dry the water droplets on the surface of the aluminum ingot and can also air-cool the aluminum ingot, further improving the cooling effect. In addition, the device can continuously cool the aluminum ingot, greatly improving work efficiency.

[0013] 2. This utility model uses a water pump to transport cooling water from the cooling pool to the spray pipe via the water guide pipe and the branch pipe. The spray nozzles then spray the water onto the aluminum ingot, thus achieving rain cooling of the aluminum ingot. The cooling water that is rained down will re-enter the cooling pool through the water guide plate, thereby achieving the recycling of cooling water and greatly saving resources.

[0025] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, provides a more detailed account of an aluminum ingot forming and cooling device.

[0026] like Figure 1-4As shown, this utility model discloses an aluminum ingot forming and cooling device, including a frame 1. A chain conveyor assembly 2 for conveying aluminum ingots is mounted on the frame 1. An intermittent drive mechanism for driving the chain conveyor assembly 2 is also mounted on the frame 1. The intermittent drive mechanism includes a motor 5, which is mounted on the side wall of the frame 1 via a motor frame. A drive disc 20 is connected to the shaft of the motor 5. A driven disc 16 is sleeved on the connecting shaft 15 of the chain conveyor assembly 2. The surface of the driven disc 16 has multiple notches 17 arranged in a circumferential array, and the side wall of the drive disc 20 has protrusions 21 corresponding to the notches 17. By starting the motor 5, the drive disc 20 rotates, while the driven disc 16 remains stationary, i.e., the chain conveyor assembly 2 does not move. When the protrusions 21 on the drive disc 20 engage... When the protrusion 21 enters the notch 17 of the passive disk 16, it will drive the passive disk 16 to rotate, thereby causing the passive disk 16 to drive the chain conveyor assembly 2 forward. When the protrusion 21 moves out of the notch 17, the passive disk 16 stops again, and the chain conveyor assembly 2 stops moving forward. When the protrusion 21 on the active disk 20 rotates back into the notch 17 of the passive disk 16, the chain conveyor assembly 2 continues to move forward, thereby realizing the intermittent forward movement of the chain conveyor assembly 2. This allows the aluminum ingot to stop for a while each time it moves with the chain conveyor assembly 2, which greatly extends the time the aluminum ingot stays under the blower hood 11 of the spray pipe 7, which is beneficial for cooling the aluminum ingot. At the same time, it is beneficial for the blower hood 11 to dry the water droplets on the surface of the aluminum ingot and to perform air cooling on the aluminum ingot, further improving the cooling effect. A protruding plate 18 is formed between each pair of adjacent notches 17. The side wall of the protruding plate 18 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 19. The curvature of the arc-shaped groove 19 matches the curvature of the driving disk 20. Through the cooperation between the arc-shaped groove 19 and the driving disk 20, the driving disk 20 can be tightly fitted with the driven disk 16 when it rotates.

[0027] Inside the frame 1, below the chain conveyor assembly 2, is a cooling pool 3. Support plates 6 are installed on both sides of the upper surface of the frame 1. Multiple equally spaced spray pipes 7 are arranged between the two support plates 6. Multiple equally spaced nozzles are arranged along the length of the bottom of each spray pipe 7. The cooling pool 3 is connected to a water guide pipe 8 via a water pump. The water guide pipe 8 is connected to each spray pipe 7 via a branch pipe 9. By starting the water pump, the water guide pipe 8 and branch pipe 9 transport cooling water from the cooling pool 3 to the spray pipes 7, and then spray the water onto the aluminum ingots, thus achieving rain cooling of the aluminum ingots. The cooled water that falls down will re-enter the cooling pool 3 through the water guide plate 4, thus achieving the recycling of cooling water and greatly saving resources. The cooling pool 3 is equipped with equipment for cooling the water, which is existing cooling pool technology and will not be described in detail here. Multiple spray pipes 7 are evenly spaced along the forward direction of the chain conveyor assembly 2, and the length of the spray pipes 7 is perpendicular to the length of the chain conveyor assembly 2. This allows the spray pipes 7 to spray along the length of the aluminum ingot, and multiple spray pipes 7 can spray the aluminum ingot in the forward direction, so that an aluminum ingot can be sprayed multiple times during its forward movement, thereby improving the cooling effect. A blower hood 11 is mounted on one side of the support plate 6 on the frame 1 via a bracket. The blower hood 11 is connected to a blower 12 via a blower pipe 10.

[0028] A water guide plate 4 is provided above the inner cavity of the cooling pool 3. Inclined surfaces 13 are provided on both sides of the upper surface of the water guide plate 4, and a mesh plate 14 is provided in the middle part of the water guide plate 4. Through the setting of the inclined surfaces 13 on the water guide plate 4, the cooling water that is rained down will flow along the inclined surfaces 13 to the mesh plate 14, and then enter the cooling pool 3 through the mesh plate 14. The mesh plate 14 is used to filter impurities.

[0029] The working principle of this aluminum ingot forming cooling device is as follows: When in use, the aluminum ingot is placed on the chain conveyor assembly 2. By starting the motor 5, the aluminum ingot moves forward intermittently with the chain conveyor assembly 2. When the aluminum ingot is conveyed to the bottom of the spray pipe 7, the spray pipe 7 sprays cooling water onto the aluminum ingot to cool it. When the aluminum ingot moves to the bottom of the blower hood 11, the blower 12 is started, so that the blower hood 11 blows air onto the aluminum ingot. This not only dries the water droplets on the surface of the aluminum ingot, but also cools the aluminum ingot with air, further achieving the cooling effect.

[0030] It is understood that this utility model has been described through some embodiments, and those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes or equivalent substitutions can be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Furthermore, under the teachings of this utility model, these features and embodiments can be modified to adapt to specific situations and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are within the protection scope of this utility model.
