Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of energy storage technology, and more specifically, to a graphite rod pressing device. Background Technology

[0002] The rotor system of energy storage flywheels typically has an extremely large mass and generates enormous kinetic potential energy after operation. If the suspension system becomes unstable, the mechanical protection bearings of the flywheel energy storage device may completely fail. In this case, a protective friction disc system needs to be installed directly below the rotor flywheel. To reduce air resistance, large energy storage flywheel devices often operate in a vacuum chamber. Therefore, it is necessary to prevent debris generated during friction from contaminating the chamber or affecting the system's sealing. The protective friction disc system consists of a chassis, graphite rods, and a copper sleeve, all of which are interference-fitted. The graphite rods are less hard than the copper sleeves, and the process of pressing the graphite rods into the copper sleeves can easily cause them to break or be damaged. Inaccurate installation of the graphite rods will also affect the function of the friction disc.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a high-efficiency and high-precision pressing device to press graphite rods into copper sleeves. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention proposes a device that can simultaneously press multiple graphite rods into a copper sleeve using a pressure plate.

By applying external force to the operating rod, the pressure rod drives the pressure plate to apply external force to the graphite rod under the action of the operating rod, pressing the graphite rod into the friction disc.

[0019] Figure 1 This is a diagram showing the usage state of a graphite rod pressing device according to this utility model;

[0020] Figure 2 This is a perspective view of a graphite rod pressing device according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a graphite rod pressing device includes a support rod 1, one end of which is hinged to an operating rod 2. A pressure rod 3 is fitted onto the operating rod 2. A pressure plate 31 is located at the end of the pressure rod 3 away from the operating rod 2. The pressure plate 31 rises or falls with the swinging of the operating rod 2. A friction disc 6 is placed below the pressure plate 31. One end of a graphite rod 61 is inserted into a pre-drilled hole in the friction disc 6. By applying external force to the operating rod 2, the pressure rod 3, under the action of the operating rod 2, drives the pressure plate 31 to apply external force to the graphite rod 61, pressing the graphite rod 61 into the friction disc 6. This structure allows for simultaneous operation of multiple graphite rods 61 via the pressure plate 31, improving the pressing efficiency.

[0023] The operating lever 2 is provided with an operating groove 21, and a sliding rod 32 is provided within the operating groove 21. The sliding rod 32 is connected to the pressure rod 3. The operating groove 21 is provided along the length direction of the operating lever 2, and the sliding rod 32 is provided perpendicularly to the operating lever 2, passing through the operating groove 21. The sliding rod 32 moves within the operating groove 21, ensuring that when the operating lever 2 swings up and down, the pressure rod 3 only moves up and down with the operating lever 2.

[0024] The sliding rod 32 is provided with a first bearing 33, and the outer ring of the first bearing 33 is slidably mounted on the operating groove 21. The first bearing 33 increases the smoothness of the sliding rod 32 within the operating groove 21 and reduces the difficulty of swinging the operating rod 2.

[0025] The end of the pressure rod 3 away from the pressure plate 31 is provided with a connector 34, and the sliding rod 32 is disposed on the connector 34. The connector 34 includes a connecting body 341 and a connecting block 342, which are detachably connected. The connector 34 is used to fix the sliding rod 32, and the connecting body 341 and the connecting block 342 are detachably connected by bolts, so the fixed sliding rod 32 can be quickly disassembled.

[0026] One end of the operating lever 2 is provided with a second bearing 22, and one end of the support rod 1 is provided with a swing rod 11, which is located in the inner ring of the second bearing 22. The second bearing 22 cooperates with the swing rod 11, making the hinge between the operating lever 2 and the support rod 1 smoother. The operating lever 2 can swing at the hinge point, and the end of the operating lever 2 away from the hinge point can be raised and lowered.

[0027] It also includes a guide plate 4, which is fixedly mounted on the support rod 1. The pressure rod 3 passes through the guide plate 4 and is connected to the pressure plate 31. The guide plate 4 guides the pressure rod 31, making the process of the pressure plate 31 pressing the graphite rod 61 into the friction disk 6 more stable.

[0028] The guide plate 4 is provided with a guide sleeve 41, and the pressure rod 3 is sleeved on the guide sleeve 41. The guide sleeve 41 has a more obvious guiding effect on the pressure rod 3, and the pressure rod 31 moves up and down more smoothly.

[0029] It also includes a substrate 12, on which the support rod 1 is disposed. The substrate 12 serves to fix and support the support rod 1, and also supports the friction disk 6, ensuring that the friction disk 6 is on a plane, making the pressing of the graphite rod 61 more stable.

[0030] It also includes a positioning plate 5, which is mounted on the support rod 1 and positioned between the base plate 12 and the guide plate 4. The positioning plate 5 is provided with a plate guide groove 51, and the plate 31 is configured to cooperate with the plate guide groove 51. The positioning plate 5 guides the plate 31, and the guiding effect is better when the plate 31 passes through the plate guide groove 51.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
