Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrolysis technology, and in particular to a cleaning device for electrolytic zinc anode plates. Background Technology

[0002] In the electrolytic zinc production process, the anode plate is a key component, and the cleanliness of its surface has a direct impact on electrolysis efficiency and product quality. With the large-scale development of the electrolytic zinc industry, the requirements for the efficiency and quality of anode plate cleaning are increasing.

[0003] Traditional methods for cleaning electrolytic zinc anode plates mostly involve manual wiping or simple mechanical cleaning. Manual wiping is labor-intensive, inefficient, and the cleaning effect is affected by the operator's experience and working conditions, making it difficult to guarantee consistency.

[0004] While simple mechanical cleaning can improve efficiency to some extent, it is not effective at cleaning stubborn dirt and impurities on the complex structure of the anode plate surface. This results in incomplete cleaning of the anode plate surface, which in turn affects the electrochemical reaction during the electrolysis process, reduces electrolysis efficiency, and lowers the quality of zinc products.

[0005] In addition, impurities generated during traditional cleaning processes cannot be effectively intercepted and treated, which can easily cause cleaning fluid contamination and equipment pipeline blockage, increasing equipment maintenance costs and failure risks. At the same time, some traditional cleaning methods require the use of large amounts of chemical cleaning agents, which not only increases production costs but also pollutes the environment. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an efficient, clean, environmentally friendly and highly automated electrolytic zinc anode plate cleaning device to meet the needs of industry development.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

The use of terms like "first" and "second" is merely for distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, or implicitly indicating the quantity or sequence of the indicated technical features.

[0029] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a cleaning device for electrolytic zinc anode plates, including a motor 1 and a frame 2. The motor 1 is located on one side of the frame 2, and a support plate 3 is fixedly connected to the frame 2. The motor 1 is mounted on the support plate 3.

[0031] A threaded rod 4 is rotatably connected between the two machine frames 2, and two guide shafts 11 are fixedly connected between the two machine frames 2;

[0032] The output end of motor 1 is fixedly connected to threaded rod 4. A slider 5 is threadedly connected to threaded rod 4. A fixed plate 6 is fixedly connected below slider 5. The front and rear ends of fixed plate 6 are slidably connected by two guide shafts 11.

[0033] A hydraulic cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 6, a hydraulic rod 12 is slidably connected to the hydraulic cylinder 7, a connecting horizontal plate 8 is fixedly connected below the hydraulic rod 12, and a hook 9 is provided below the connecting horizontal plate 8.

[0034] As the threaded rod 4 rotates, the slider 5 and the fixed plate 6 move along the guide shaft 11, thereby driving the hydraulic cylinder 7, the connecting horizontal plate 8 and the hook 9 below to move.

[0035] A cleaning cylinder 13 is provided between the two frames 2. A filter screen 18 is movably installed inside the cleaning bar 13. An ultrasonic transducer 17 is provided inside the cleaning cylinder 13. A support leg 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning cylinder 13.

[0036] The filter screen 18 inside the cleaning tank can effectively intercept impurities generated during the cleaning process, preventing impurities from circulating in the cleaning solution and affecting the cleaning effect, and making it convenient for later cleaning;

[0037] An ultrasonic generator 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the cleaning bar 13. An ultrasonic generator 14 is fixedly connected to a wire 16. The other end of the wire 16 is electrically connected to an ultrasonic transducer 17.

[0038] Two rollers 10 are rotatably connected on the side of the frame 2 away from the cleaning tank 13 between the two frames 2. The surfaces of the two rollers 10 can be covered with absorbent materials such as towels. The absorbent materials covered with the rollers 10 can quickly squeeze and absorb the residual moisture on the surface of the anode plate, achieving efficient dehydration.

[0039] A water tray 19 is fixedly connected between the cleaning tank 13 and the frame 2 on the side away from the cleaning tank 13. The dripping water is collected by the water tray 19 to avoid a damp working environment and ensure the cleanliness and safety of the working area.

[0040] Working principle: When the electrolytic zinc anode plate cleaning device is working, the motor 1 starts, and its output end drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate. Since the slider 5 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 4, and the fixed plate 6 is restricted to moving only along the axial direction by the guide shaft 11, the slider 5 and the fixed plate 6 move along the guide shaft 11 under the rotation of the threaded rod 4, which in turn drives the hydraulic cylinder 7, the connecting horizontal plate 8 and the hook 9 below to move, and hangs the electrolytic zinc anode plate to be cleaned on the hook 9. The motor 1 controls it to move to the top of the cleaning cylinder 13.

[0041] Subsequently, the hydraulic cylinder 7 operates, the hydraulic rod 12 extends, driving the connecting horizontal plate 8 and hook 9 to descend, placing the anode plate into the cleaning tank 13. The ultrasonic generator 14 in the cleaning tank 13 supplies power to the ultrasonic transducer 17 through the wire 16. The ultrasonic transducer 17 converts electrical energy into ultrasonic energy, generating high-frequency vibrations in the liquid of the cleaning tank 13. Utilizing the cavitation effect, acceleration effect, and direct flow effect of ultrasound, dirt and impurities on the surface of the anode plate are quickly peeled off and dispersed in the cleaning solution, completing the cleaning process. Impurities generated during cleaning will precipitate or suspend in the filter screen 18 in the solution, which can intercept them to prevent clogging or affecting the subsequent cleaning effect.

[0042] After cleaning, the hydraulic rod 12 retracts, lifting the anode plate from the cleaning cylinder 13. The motor 1 then operates again, moving the anode plate to the top of the two rollers 10. The hydraulic rod 12 extends to place the anode plate between the rollers 10. The absorbent materials such as towels on the surface of the rollers 10 can squeeze and absorb the residual water on the surface of the anode plate, thus achieving dehydration.

[0043] Water dripping during the movement and dehydration process falls into water tray 19 for easy collection and treatment. The entire cleaning process is automated, improving the cleaning efficiency and quality of the electrolytic zinc anode plates.

[0044] With the cooperation of components such as motor 1, threaded rod 4, and guide shaft 11, the entire process of conveying, cleaning and dehydrating the anode plate is automated, which greatly reduces the operation time and improves the cleaning efficiency compared with manual cleaning, meeting the needs of large-scale industrial production.

[0045] By using the ultrasonic transducer 17 to generate high-frequency vibrations, based on principles such as cavitation effect, it can penetrate deep into the tiny gaps of the anode plate to completely remove stubborn dirt and impurities. The cleaning effect is far superior to traditional cleaning methods, ensuring the cleaning quality of the anode plate.

[0046] The filter screen 18 inside the cleaning tank can effectively intercept impurities generated during the cleaning process, preventing impurities from circulating in the cleaning solution and affecting the cleaning effect, and making it convenient for later cleaning;

[0047] The absorbent material on the surface of roller 10 can quickly squeeze and absorb residual moisture on the surface of the anode plate, achieving efficient dehydration. The dripping water is collected by water tray 19 to avoid a damp working environment and ensure a clean and safe working area.

[0048] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
