Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of trench material loading technology, specifically referring to a trench material box for an electrolysis workshop. Background Technology
[0002] The current process for hoisting and transporting the trench material in the second series of electrolytic electrolysis is as follows: Workers sweep the trench material into a pile, then load it into a handcart, push the handcart to the bottom of the trench hoisting opening, place the alumina bags on the ground, and pour the trench material from the handcart into the bags. Due to the small hoisting opening, each bag can hold approximately four handcarts' worth of trench material. The bags are then hoisted out by overhead crane to be used as top covering material. This process has the following problems:
[0003] 1. When the waste material is loaded into alumina bags, employees need to tip over the handcarts filled with the material and pour it into the alumina bags. The handcarts filled with the material weigh about 200 kilograms or more. The labor intensity of the employees is high, so there are dangers such as squeezing and pinching hands during the bagging process.
[0004] 2. During the hoisting process, it is unavoidable that the crane will pull or lift at an angle, which will cause varying degrees of wear and tear on the crane hook, wire rope, and lifting equipment, posing a certain danger.
[0005] 3. Increased production costs: Based on the calculation that each shift consumes one alumina bag, the workshop consumes more than 4,000 alumina bags per year, resulting in a huge waste. Utility Model Content
[0006] This utility model aims to at least solve the problem of slanted or tilted lifting during the hoisting of trench materials, prevent various accidents, and reduce the labor intensity of employees.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: The present utility model proposes an electrolysis workshop trench material box, including a hollow box body. The lower end of the box body is a hollow frame that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. A feeding box extends from the bottom of the frame body. The bottom through hole of the feeding box is blocked by two sets of openable and closable arc-shaped valves. Two sets of rotating shafts are provided on the side wall of the feeding box. Two sets of meshing gears are connected to the rotating shafts. A connecting plate extends from the gears and is fixedly connected to the valve. A handle is also fixedly connected to one of the connecting plates.
[0008] Furthermore, four sets of hooks are fixedly extended upwards from the other side of the box to facilitate connection with mechanical equipment for transporting and unloading materials.
[0009] Furthermore, the connecting plate is provided in two sets, and the two sets of connecting plates are connected by a return spring.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model using the above structure are as follows: This utility model provides a material box for the electrolytic capacitor's trench, which is entirely made of welded stainless steel, unaffected by on-site magnetic fields. Furthermore, the structure is simple to manufacture and easy to install, reducing the labor intensity of employees and saving production costs. Attached Figure Description

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0016] Example 1
[0017] This utility model relates to a material box for an electrolysis workshop trench, comprising a hollow box body 1, which is welded from stainless steel. The lower end of the box body 1 is a hollow frame 11 that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. A feeding box 2 extends from the bottom of the frame 11. The bottom through hole of the feeding box 2 is blocked by two sets of openable and closable arc-shaped valves 3. Two sets of rotating shafts 4 are provided on the side wall of the feeding box 2. Two sets of meshing gears 5 are connected to the rotating shafts 4. A connecting plate 6 extends from the gears 5 and is fixedly connected to the valves 3. A handle 7 is also fixedly connected to one of the connecting plates 6.
[0018] First, dig a pit of suitable size and depth at the projection of the material hoisting port. Normally, the box 1 is placed in the pit. When cleaning the ditch material, the employee pushes the handcart full of material to the vicinity of the box 1. Since the upper end of the box 1 is level with the ground, the ditch material in the handcart can be easily poured into the box 1. The box 1 can hold 3 handcarts of ditch material at a time. After it is full, it is hooked to the hook 12 by the overhead crane and hoisted to the electrode changing point of the electrolytic cell. It can also be hoisted to the ground to be bagged. Hold the handle 7 and press down. At this time, the connecting plate 6 drives the gear 5 and the rotating shaft 4 to rotate on the side wall of the feeding box 2. The two sets of gears 5 mesh, causing the connecting plate 6 and the valve 3 to open in the opposite direction. The through hole 2 at the lower end of the feeding box 2 opens, and the material in the box 1 and the frame 11 flows out through the feeding box 2.
[0019] Example 2
[0020] Based on Embodiment 1, in order to facilitate the transportation of materials after connecting with mechanical equipment, four sets of hooks 12 are fixedly extended upward on the other side of the box 1.
[0021] Example 3
[0022] Based on Embodiment 1, in order to ensure that valve 3 can be closed easily, two sets of connecting plates 6 are provided, and the two sets of connecting plates 6 are connected by a return spring 8. After the valve 3 is unfolded, under the elastic action of the return spring 8, when the handle 7 loses pressure, the return spring 8 drives the two sets of connecting plates 6 to reset, the two sets of gears 5 mesh in opposite directions, and finally the valve 3 is closed.
