Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum alloy profile technology, and more specifically, it relates to a water supply device for cooling aluminum alloy profiles. Background Technology
[0002] When aluminum alloy profiles exit the extruder after extrusion, their temperature is high, requiring rapid cooling to set the shape and prevent deformation.
[0003] The existing cooling and shaping methods for aluminum alloy profiles are mainly spray cooling. In the existing spray cooling structure, the installation of the spray pipes used for spraying is mostly fixed, and the spray distance cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the height of the aluminum alloy profile.
[0004] Furthermore, in existing technologies, during spraying, the spray liquid usually only makes brief contact with the aluminum alloy profile as it is conveyed on the conveyor belt to achieve cooling. In this case, the contact time between the coolant and the aluminum alloy profile is short, and the coolant cannot be fully utilized. Utility Model Content

Multiple collection boxes are mounted at the bottom of the conveyor frame in conjunction with the conveyor belt. A protective cover is mounted at the top of the conveyor frame, and an electric push rod is mounted inside the top of the protective cover. A lifting plate is mounted at the bottom of the electric push rod. Multiple sets of spray pipes are mounted on the lifting plate corresponding to each collection box. Each set of spray pipes is equipped with an atomizing nozzle. A water supply hose is connected between each collection box at the rear and the adjacent spray pipe at the front, and a pump body is mounted in conjunction with the water supply hose. A water inlet pipe is connected to the rearmost spray pipe, and a drain pipe is mounted on the frontmost collection box.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that a suction hood is provided at the front end of the lifting plate, a suction hose is connected to the suction hood, and a suction assembly is connected to the output end of the suction hose.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that the suction assembly includes a suction fan, the input end of the suction fan is connected to the output end of the suction hose, and the output end of the suction fan is provided with an exhaust pipe. When the suction fan is started, a negative pressure can be generated at the suction hood under the action of the suction fan and the suction hose, so that the water vapor generated by the contact between water vapor and the high temperature aluminum alloy profile can be sucked away in time through the suction hood, avoiding the situation of steam overflowing in the processing workshop.
[0012] The present invention is further configured such that each of the spray pipes is provided with a connecting pipe, and the top end of the connecting pipe is provided with a two-way pipe. One end of the two-way pipe is connected to a water supply hose, and the other end is connected to an air inlet pipe. An air supply component is connected to the air inlet pipe.

[0019] 1. This utility model features multiple collection boxes at the bottom of the conveyor frame, integrated with a conveyor belt. Each collection box is connected to an adjacent spray pipe via a water supply hose, and a pump is mounted on the hose. An inlet pipe is connected to the rearmost spray pipe, and a drain pipe is installed on the frontmost collection box. Cooling water is supplied to the rearmost spray pipe via the inlet pipe for spraying. Residual liquid from the spraying falls into the corresponding collection box below. Then, under the action of the pump, it is pumped out through the water supply hose and transported to the adjacent collection box. The coolant is sprayed into the spray pipe and then sprayed out through the corresponding spray pipe, and so on. This allows the residual liquid generated by the next spray to be used by the previous spray pipe. During this process, the temperature of the aluminum alloy profile that needs to be cooled gradually decreases, while the temperature of the coolant gradually increases from back to front. This allows the heated coolant to be used to cool the aluminum alloy profile at a higher temperature, and the coolant at a lower temperature to cool the aluminum alloy profile at an even lower temperature after initial cooling. This improves the utilization of the coolant and enhances the circulating cooling effect and the adequacy of the cooling of the aluminum alloy profile.
[0020] 2. This utility model has a protective cover at the top of the conveyor frame, an electric push rod at the top of the inside of the protective cover, and a lifting plate at the bottom of the electric push rod. The lifting plate has multiple sets of spray pipes corresponding to each collection box, and each set of spray pipes is equipped with an atomizing nozzle. In this way, by activating the electric push rod, the lifting plate can be raised and lowered, and the lifting plate can be raised and lowered, thereby controlling the spray height of the aluminum alloy profile during spray cooling. This allows for flexible adjustment of the spray cooling height according to the different heights of the aluminum alloy profiles, improving the cooling effect of the aluminum alloy profiles.
[0021] 3. In this utility model, a water supply hose and an air supply hose are provided in conjunction with the spray pipe. In this way, the air supply hose and the compressed air pump can supply air and water to the spray pipe, so that the water mist generated in the atomizing nozzle can be mixed with the compressed air to form an air mist cooling system. This can enhance the evaporation heat absorption efficiency and improve the cooling efficiency of the aluminum alloy profile. Attached Figure Description

[0040] In summary:
[0041] This invention features multiple collection boxes 3 at the bottom of the conveyor frame 1 in conjunction with the conveyor belt 2. Each collection box 3 is connected to an adjacent spray pipe 7 via a water supply hose 9, and a pump body 10 is installed in conjunction with the water supply hose 9. An inlet pipe 11 is connected to the rearmost spray pipe 7, and a drain pipe 12 is installed on the frontmost collection box 3. This allows cooling water to be delivered to the rearmost spray pipe 7 via the inlet pipe 11 for spraying. Residual liquid from the spraying falls into the corresponding collection box 3 below, and then, under the action of the corresponding pump body 10, is drawn out through the water supply hose 9. The coolant is fed into the adjacent spray pipe 7 and sprayed out through the corresponding spray pipe 7, and so on. This allows the residual liquid generated by the next spray to be sprayed and utilized by the previous spray pipe 7. During this process, the temperature of the aluminum alloy profile that needs to be cooled gradually decreases, while the temperature of the coolant gradually increases from the back to the front. This allows the heated coolant to be used to cool the aluminum alloy profile at a higher temperature, and the coolant at a lower temperature to be used to cool the aluminum alloy profile at a lower temperature after the initial cooling. This can improve the utilization rate of the coolant and improve the circulating cooling effect and cooling sufficiency of the aluminum alloy profile.

In this way, when the electric push rod 5 is activated, the lifting plate 6 can be raised and lowered, and the spray pipes 7 can be raised and lowered, thereby controlling the spray height of the aluminum alloy profile during spray cooling. This allows for flexible adjustment of the spray cooling height according to the different heights of the aluminum alloy profiles, thereby improving the cooling effect of the aluminum alloy profiles.
[0043] In this invention, a water supply hose 9 and an air supply hose 21 are provided in conjunction with the spray pipe 7. In this way, the air supply pump 20 and the air supply hose 21 can supply air and water to the spray pipe 7, so that the water mist generated in the atomizing nozzle 8 can be mixed with compressed air to form an aerosol cooling system.
