Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of power supply locking equipment, and specifically relates to a hydraulic quick disconnection locking device for electroplated nickel anode copper busbars. Background Technology

[0002] The rapid development of the cylindrical lithium battery industry for new energy vehicles has led to a continuous increase in the demand for pre-plated nickel battery steel strips, which in turn has promoted the development of the pre-plated nickel steel strip industry. During the continuous high-current (approximately 7500 amperes) electroplating process of the steel strip, it is necessary to lock the copper busbar of the positive electrode output of the rectifier cabinet to the titanium blue (anode basket) copper busbar to reduce heat loss during the high-current transmission process.

[0003] In conventional continuous nickel plating production lines, the connection between the copper busbars of the titanium baskets and the copper busbars leading out of the positive terminal of the rectifier cabinet in the plating tank is fixed with multiple large steel bolts. Up to four sets of anodes in each plating tank need to be locked and connected to their respective titanium baskets. The cathodes of the conductive rollers are connected to the negative terminal of the rectifier power supply to form an electrical circuit. If the locking force of the high-current copper busbars is insufficient, it will cause severe heating at the copper busbar connection points, affecting the plating efficiency and increasing additional consumption. Therefore, there are 4 to 6 M12 bolts at each joint, that is, more than 20 bolts are needed to lock the copper busbars of the positive terminal of the rectifier cabinet and the copper busbars of the titanium baskets in each plating tank.

[0004] The drawback of this technical solution is that, since there are many locking bolts between the positive terminal of the rectifier power supply and the anode titanium basket, and the nickel balls and nickel corners are consumables when nickel plating steel strips, and they are consumed quickly, workers need to frequently use wrenches to repeatedly install and remove these more than twenty bolts in the narrow space above the plating tank, resulting in low production efficiency and affecting the personal safety of workers.

[0005] There are currently no effective solutions to the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a hydraulic quick-break locking device for electroplating nickel anode copper busbars. The technical problem to be solved is as follows: the locking structure used in the existing nickel electroplating process takes a lot of time to disassemble and assemble, resulting in low electroplating efficiency.

[0007] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] A hydraulic quick-break locking device for electroplated nickel anode copper busbars includes clamps. A clamping frame is installed on the outside of the clamps. Two titanium blue copper busbars are installed between one end of the clamping frame and the clamps, and two rectifier copper busbars are installed between the other end of the clamps and the clamps. A jack locking component is installed at one end of the clamps. The jack locking component is used to control the locking state of the clamps on the rectifier copper busbars and the titanium blue copper busbars.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the clamping frame is disposed between the rectifier copper busbar and the titanium blue copper busbar, the middle part of the clamp is adapted to the middle part of the clamping frame, a side support plate is fixedly connected to the outside of the clamping frame, and multiple locking bolts are installed on both sides of the top.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: an inner insulating frame is provided on the inner side of the clamping frame, and the inner insulating frame is attached to the adjacent rectifier copper busbar and titanium blue copper busbar.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: an insulating top plate is installed on the adjacent surfaces of the jack locking component and the clamp.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a lock nut is sleeved on the outer side of the jack locking component, and a jack quick plug is provided at the bottom, with a locking nut provided on the outer side of the jack quick plug.

[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a copper busbar clamping plate is installed on the inner side of the titanium blue copper busbar, and a clamping pad is installed between the copper busbar clamping plate and the clamp on the adjacent side.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] By installing a clamp with an inner insulating frame between the inner sides of the two sets of rectifier copper busbars and titanium blue copper busbars, and installing a jack locking component at one end of the clamp jaws, the clamp can be quickly opened and closed by hydraulically controlling the opening and closing of the jack locking component during use. The convenient opening and closing control of the clamp enables convenient disassembly and assembly of the rectifier copper busbars and titanium blue copper busbars. Its technical advantage is that the hydraulically controlled jack locking component replaces the bolt-locking mode of the copper busbars in the existing technology, thereby reducing a lot of time for disassembling and assembling bolts, thus improving the efficiency of locking the copper busbars to meet the production needs of high-speed electroplated battery steel strips.

[0016] Furthermore, since the jack locking mechanism controls the clamping state of the copper busbar during opening and closing, it avoids the need for manual handling of disassembly tools to tighten the bolts on the copper busbar. This means that workers do not need to directly contact the copper busbar used to carry high current, reducing the risk of accidentally touching a high current and thus improving the safety of workers. It also prevents bolts or tools from falling into the electroplating tank, causing temporary interruptions to the production line, thereby further improving electroplating efficiency and work safety.

[0020] 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 scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, a hydraulic quick-break locking device for electroplated nickel anode copper busbars includes a clamp 1, a clamping frame 9 installed on the outside of the clamp 1, two titanium blue copper busbars 12 installed between one end of the clamping frame 9 and the clamp 1, and two rectifier copper busbars 11 installed between the other end of the clamping frame 9 and the clamp 1. A jack locking component 5 is installed on one end of the clamp 1, and the jack locking component 5 is used to control the locking state of the clamp 1 on the rectifier copper busbars 11 and the titanium blue copper busbars 12.

[0022] It should be noted that the clamp 1 is preferably an X-shaped jaw made of high-strength alloy steel, the rectifier copper bus 11 is a connecting copper bus that provides current from the rectifier or rectifier cabinet for high-current electroplating, and the titanium blue copper bus 12 is a high-current conductive copper bus that connects the titanium blue (anode basket) to the rectifier copper bus 11. The jack locking component 5 is preferably a thin self-locking hydraulic jack. The high current provided by the rectifier is led out through the rectifier copper bus 11 and then clamped by the clamp 1. After clamping, there is no gap between the adjacent sides of the rectifier copper bus 11 and the titanium blue copper bus 12, which can greatly reduce the energy loss in the high current transmission process. After the current is transmitted to the titanium blue copper bus 12, the nickel ball is consumed to perform electroplating on the steel strip.

[0023] The clamping frame 9 is located between the rectifier copper busbar 11 and the titanium blue copper busbar 12. The middle part of the clamp 1 is located in the middle of the clamping frame 9. The side support plate 3 is fixedly connected to the outside of the clamping frame 9, and multiple locking bolts are installed on both sides of the top.

[0024] It should be noted that the clamping frame 9 is located in the middle of the two sets of copper busbars, and the clamp 1 is also located inside the clamping frame 9. This structural distribution allows the clamp 1 to be opened by the jack locking part 5, and the opening degree of the clamp jaws of the clamp 1 is limited by the clamping frame 9, thereby achieving precise locking of each copper busbar by the clamp 1. In addition, the clamp 1 can be removed by unlocking the locking bolts on both sides of the top of the clamping frame 9, so as to inspect and adjust the clamping condition of the copper busbars. The side support plate 3 is used to improve the clamping strength of the clamping frame 9 for the four copper busbars and the clamp 1.

[0025] An inner insulating frame 4 is provided inside the clamping frame 9, and the inner insulating frame 4 is attached to the adjacent rectifier copper busbar 11 and titanium blue copper busbar 12.

[0026] Insulating top plates 6 are installed on both sides of the inner side of one end of the jack locking part 5 and the clamp 1;

[0027] It should be noted that when a large current passes through the rectifier copper busbar 11 and the titanium blue copper busbar 12, it is necessary to maintain the normal working state of the jack locking component 5 and at the same time maintain the insulation state of the clamping frame 9 set on the periphery, so as to protect the safe use of the jack locking component 5 and the clamping frame 9. Specifically, the inner insulating frame 4 is fitted on the inner ring side of the clamping frame 9. When the jaws of the clamping clamp 1 are supported on both sides of the jack locking component 5, insulation is achieved by padding with the insulating top plate 6. Both the inner insulating frame 4 and the insulating top plate 6 are high-strength fiber resin insulating partitions.

[0028] The locking part 5 of the jack is fitted with a lock nut sleeve 7 on the outside, and a quick plug 10 of the jack is provided at the bottom. A lock nut 13 is provided on the outside of the quick plug 10 of the jack.

[0029] It should be noted that the small mobile hydraulic station (not shown) uses the jack quick connector 10 to hydraulically control the jack locking component 5 to regulate the locking force of the clamp 1. During the movement, it can open and close the jaws of the multi-station clamp 1 and adjust the clamping pressure to meet the needs of copper busbar disassembly and assembly during high-speed electroplating. At the same time, the locking nut 13 can maintain the locking force for a long time after the hydraulic source is removed, so as to reduce the power loss caused by contact resistance due to insufficient locking force.

[0030] A copper busbar clamping plate 8 is installed on the inner side of the titanium blue copper busbar 12, and a clamping pad 2 is installed between the copper busbar clamping plate 8 and the clamp 1 on the adjacent side; that is, after the jack locking part 5 opens the clamp 1, the side of the clamp 1 close to the titanium blue copper busbar 12 transmits the pressure of the clamp 1 through the copper busbar clamping plate 8, and the clamping pad 2 contacts and locks the titanium blue copper busbar 12. The contact surface between the copper busbar clamping plate 8 and the clamp 1 is an arc surface, and the contact surface between the copper busbar clamping plate 8 and the titanium blue copper busbar 12 is also an anti-slip surface, thereby improving the force transmission efficiency and clamping strength.

[0031] The above description provides a detailed account of one embodiment of the present invention. However, this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. All equivalent variations and improvements made within the scope of the claims of the present invention should still fall within the patent coverage of the present invention.
