Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum profiles, and in particular to a cooling device for aluminum profile production. Background Technology
[0002] Aluminum profiles are profiles with specific cross-sectional shapes made from aluminum alloys through processes such as extrusion, heat treatment, and surface treatment. Due to their lightweight, high strength, ease of processing, and corrosion resistance, they are widely used in many fields such as construction, industry, transportation, and new energy, and are one of the key basic materials in modern industry and people's livelihood.
[0003] Currently, in the production process of aluminum profiles, the aluminum profiles are usually cooled in cold water. However, after prolonged use, the cold water will also heat up, and the temperature difference with the surrounding water is large. This will reduce the cooling progress and is not conducive to current use. Therefore, we propose a cooling device for aluminum profile production to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cooling device for aluminum profile production, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A cooling device for aluminum profile production includes a fixed plate, a bracket fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed plate, a cylinder embedded in the upper surface of the bracket, a support frame connected to the inner wall of the cylinder, a drain basket inside the support frame, a stirring mechanism embedded in the bottom surface of the cylinder, a water tank connected to the upper surface of the fixed plate, the front of the water tank communicating with the bottom surface of the cylinder through a bent pipe, a conveying mechanism connected to the upper surface of the water tank, two first coolers embedded in the back of the water tank, and two second coolers embedded in the bottom surface of the cylinder.
[0007] In a further embodiment, the stirring mechanism includes a rolling bearing embedded in the cylinder, a connecting rod connected to the inner ring of the rolling bearing, a motor connected to the bottom end of the connecting rod, the bottom surface of the motor connected to the upper surface of the fixed plate, and a stirring plate connected to the top end of the connecting rod.
[0008] In a further embodiment, the conveying mechanism includes a pump body connected to a water tank, the output end of the pump body being connected to a connecting pipe, and the input end of the pump body being connected to the back of the water tank via a suction pipe.
[0009] In a further embodiment, a control switch is connected to the upper surface of the bracket, and the control switch is located on the right side of the cylinder.
[0010] In a further embodiment, a reinforcing plate is connected to the upper surface of the cylinder, and the upper surface of the reinforcing plate is connected to the outer surface of the connecting pipe.
[0011] In a further embodiment, a display panel is provided above the fixing plate, and the left side of the display panel is connected to the right side of the bracket.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This device, through the cooperation of a motor and a connecting rod, facilitates the rotation of the connecting rod within the inner ring of the rolling bearing. Simultaneously, the design of the connecting rod and the stirring plate ensures continuous agitation of the cooling medium within the cylinder, breaking up temperature stratification that occurs when the medium is stationary. This results in a more uniform temperature of the cooling medium around the aluminum profile, preventing localized heat buildup that could reduce cooling efficiency. It also enhances the heat exchange rate between the medium and the aluminum profile surface. The pump and suction pipe design facilitates the delivery of low-temperature water into the cylinder via a connecting pipe. A bend in the pipe connects to a water tank, allowing water to be discharged from the cylinder and circulate. This circulation not only enables the reuse of the cooling medium but also continuously replenishes the low-temperature water, carrying away the heat released by the aluminum profile and preventing heat buildup within the cylinder, thereby accelerating the cooling process of the aluminum profile.

A stirring plate 404 is connected to the top end of the connecting rod 402. The cooperation between the motor 403 and the connecting rod 402 facilitates the rotation of the connecting rod 402 within the inner ring of the rolling bearing 401. At the same time, according to the design of the connecting rod 402 and the stirring plate 404, the stirring plate 404 can continuously stir the cooling medium in the cylinder 9, break the temperature stratification of the medium when it is stationary, make the temperature of the cooling medium around the aluminum profile uniform, avoid the decrease in cooling efficiency due to local heat accumulation, and enhance the heat exchange rate between the medium and the surface of the aluminum profile.
[0024] The conveying mechanism 5 includes a pump body 501 connected to the water tank 2. The output end of the pump body 501 is connected to a connecting pipe 502, and the input end of the pump body 501 is connected to the back of the water tank 2 through a suction pipe 503. The design of the pump body 501 and the suction pipe 503 facilitates the delivery of low-temperature water to the cylinder 9 through the connecting pipe 502. A control switch 7 is connected to the upper surface of the support 3. The control switch 7 is located on the right side of the cylinder 9. The design of the control switch 7 facilitates the control of the device's start-up. A reinforcing plate 8 is connected to the upper surface of the cylinder 9. The upper surface of the reinforcing plate 8 is connected to the outer surface of the connecting pipe 502.

The left side of the display plate 6 is connected to the right side of the support 3. The design of the display plate 6 facilitates the display of the device's operation.
[0025] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0026] During use, the operator starts the first cooler 14 and the second cooler 10 by controlling switch 7. The first cooler 14 initially cools the water in the water tank 2 to ensure that the initial temperature of the circulating water source meets the cooling requirements. The second cooler 10 directly pre-cools the internal space of the cylinder 9 to provide a low-temperature environment for the subsequent cooling of the aluminum profile. After the temperature of the cooling medium in the water tank 2 and the cylinder 9 reaches the set value, the cooling process is ready to begin.
[0027] The high-temperature aluminum profile that needs to be cooled is placed in the drain basket 12, and then the drain basket 12 is placed on the support frame 11 inside the cylinder 9. At this time, the aluminum profile is completely in the cooling space of the cylinder 9, and the hollow structure of the drain basket 12 ensures that the aluminum profile can fully contact the cooling medium. Then, the stirring mechanism 4 and the conveying mechanism 5 are started by the control switch 7 to start the cooling operation.
[0028] After the stirring mechanism 4 is started, the motor 403 drives the connecting rod 402 to rotate in the inner ring of the rolling bearing 401, which in turn drives the stirring plate 404 at the top to rotate in the cylinder 9. The stirring plate 404 continuously stirs the cooling medium in the cylinder 9, breaks the temperature stratification when the medium is stationary, makes the temperature of the cooling medium around the aluminum profile uniform, avoids the cooling efficiency from decreasing due to local heat accumulation, and enhances the heat exchange rate between the medium and the surface of the aluminum profile.
[0029] In the conveying mechanism 5, the pump body 501 draws low-temperature water cooled by the first cooler 14 from the water tank 2 through the suction pipe 503, and then conveys the low-temperature water to the cylinder 9 through the connecting pipe 502. At the same time, the bottom of the cylinder 9 is connected to the water tank 2 through the bent pipe 13. The warm water that has absorbed the heat of the aluminum profile flows back to the water tank 2 through the bent pipe 13 to form a cycle. This cycle not only realizes the reuse of the cooling medium, but also removes the heat released by the aluminum profile by continuously replenishing the low-temperature water, thus preventing the heat from accumulating in the cylinder 9.
