Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a graphite electrode impregnation device with a movable support structure. Background Technology

[0002] Patent document CN116443870B discloses a graphite impregnation device, which includes an impregnation shell, an ink brushing assembly, an ink discharge assembly, a stamping assembly, and a pressurizing assembly. When the impregnating agent in the impregnation cylinder is completely filled, air is filled into the air bladder and pressurizing bladder to occupy the storage space of the impregnating agent, thereby increasing the pressure of the impregnating agent in the impregnation cylinder. When there are pores or cavities in the graphite rod, the impregnating agent under pressure will quickly penetrate the graphite rod, so that the graphite rod impregnation will not leave pores. Because the impregnating agent is pressurized, the penetration of the impregnating agent will be more uniform when impregnating the graphite rod, and it will not cause problems such as holes, cracks, and internal stress in the impregnated graphite rod, thus affecting the use effect of the graphite rod. However, the aforementioned impregnation device lacks a structure for treating the purity and uniformity of the impregnating agent. The purity of the impregnating agent has a decisive impact on the impregnation process of the graphite electrode and the performance of the final product. Suspended particles carried in the impregnating agent can cause physical blockages, creating unimpregnated areas. Inconsistent impregnating agent uniformity can lead to uneven impregnation of the graphite electrode. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the structure of this impregnation device to overcome the above-mentioned defects. Utility Model Content

[0016] The discharge end pipe is installed in the middle of the feeding tank. It is located on both sides of the feeding tank along with the inlet end pipe. It is connected to the filter carrier assembly through a pipeline. The impregnated material after sedimentation in the feeding tank can be transported to the filter carrier assembly through the discharge end pipe.

[0017] The discharge end pipe is installed at the bottom of the sedimentation cone. After the impregnation process is completed, the remaining impregnation material in the feeding tank can be discharged through the discharge end pipe.

[0018] The filter carrier assembly includes:

[0019] A vertical filter tank, which is arranged vertically and has filter legs at the bottom to support the filter tank;

[0020] The inlet pipe is installed at the bottom of the filter tank and is connected to the outlet pipe through a pipeline.

[0023] The filter cartridge has a conical structure. Its large-diameter bottom end is installed at the bottom of the filter tank. The inlet pipe is connected to the inner cavity of the filter cartridge. The filter cartridge filters the impregnated material that enters the filter tank through the inlet pipe. Impurities formed during the filtration process fall off from the inwardly inclined inner cavity of the filter cartridge under the action of gravity.

[0024] A vent valve is installed at the bottom of the filter tank and corresponds to the position of the filter cartridge cavity. The impregnating material carrying impurities in the filter cartridge cavity can be discharged to the outside through the vent valve.

[0033] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0034] The impregnation device's feeding and storage assembly is equipped with a sedimentation cone. After the impregnation material enters the feeding tank, it undergoes sedimentation in the sedimentation cone, effectively removing some large particles or denser insoluble substances. This improves the quality of the impregnation material in advance, providing purer material for subsequent filtration and impregnation processes. It also reduces the adverse effects of impurities on the impregnation effect and electrode quality. The impregnation material enters the filter tank from the feeding tank via the discharge pipe, where it undergoes fine filtration at the filter core to further remove minute impurities. This ensures high purity of the impregnation material entering the impregnation support assembly, contributing to the improvement of graphite... The quality of electrode impregnation ensures stable electrode performance. The workpiece support assembly adopts a movable structure and is installed in the impregnation support assembly. The support frame can move in the impregnation tank via traveling casters, making the loading and unloading of graphite electrodes more convenient. The position of the support frame can be flexibly adjusted according to actual production needs to improve production efficiency. The stirring blades extend into the support frame, which allows the impregnation material to flow fully within the support frame, avoiding local concentration differences and ensuring that all parts of the graphite electrode receive uniform impregnation treatment, further optimizing the electrode impregnation effect and improving product quality stability.
