Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrolytic cell material transportation, specifically to an electrolytic cell unloading and transfer lifting vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] During daily production, various materials will spill into the bottom of the electrolytic cell. Workers need to use trolleys to push these spilled materials back to the main surface of the electrolysis workshop and return them to the production process. In this process, because the outer perimeter of the electrolysis plant is designed with a 30° slope, it is very time-consuming and laborious for workers to push and transport these materials, resulting in a lot of wasted time and low work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an electrolytic cell unloading and transfer lifting vehicle to solve the problem of time-consuming and labor-intensive unloading of materials from the transfer cell.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] An electrolytic cell unloading and transfer lifting vehicle includes a support frame and a hopper. The support frame is equipped with a pulley block and a winch. A steel wire rope is wound on the winch and connected to the hopper through the pulley block. The winch drives the hopper to move up and down.

[0006] Furthermore, the winch is located on one side of the support frame, and the support frame is also equipped with a limit wheel. The limit wheel and the winch are located on the same side of the support frame, and the wire rope passes around the inside of the limit wheel.

[0007] Furthermore, the pulley block includes a first stationary pulley, a second stationary pulley, and a movable pulley. The first and second stationary pulleys are arranged laterally, with the first stationary pulley located on the side closer to the limiting wheel and the second stationary pulley located on the side farther from the limiting wheel. The movable pulley is connected to the hopper.

[0008] Furthermore, the wire rope passes sequentially through a limiting pulley, a first stationary pulley, a second stationary pulley, and a movable pulley. The end of the wire rope is fixedly connected to a support frame, and the wire rope is arranged vertically between the movable pulley and the second stationary pulley.

[0009] Furthermore, the hopper includes a bottom plate and three baffles. The bottom plate is square, and the three baffles are arranged around the circumference of the bottom plate. Side plates are arranged on both sides of the bottom plate, and a rear panel is arranged behind the bottom plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the hopper is equipped with a transfer vehicle, and a stabilizing component is provided in the hopper. The transfer vehicle has a handle, and the stabilizing component improves the stability of the transfer vehicle by restricting the handle.

[0011] Furthermore, the upper part of the support frame is provided with a fence, which surrounds the outside of the support frame, and the fence is provided with a door for technicians to pass through.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial technical effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This invention enables technicians to move spilled material from the bottom of the electrolytic cell into a transfer cart, which is then pushed into a hopper. Stabilizing components enhance the cart's stability, preventing tipping and ensuring the material is properly contained within the hopper. After the cart is positioned in the hopper, a winch is activated, raising the hopper to the target height. Once the target height is reached, the cart is pushed back out, returning the material to the production process. This invention significantly reduces the workload of technicians and improves work efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0015] Figure 2 This is a side view of an electrolytic cell unloading and transfer lifting vehicle.

[0016] Figure 3 This is a top view of an electrolytic cell material unloading and transfer lifting vehicle.

[0017] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the stabilizer. Detailed Implementation

[0018] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an electrolytic cell unloading and transfer lifting vehicle includes a support frame 1 and a hopper 2. The support frame 1 is equipped with a pulley system and a winch 3. A steel wire rope 4 is wound around the winch 3 and connected to the hopper 2 via the pulley system. The winch 3 drives the hopper 2 to move up and down along the support frame 1. A first platform and a second platform are provided in the workshop. Both platforms have passageways. The support frame 1 is located in the passageway, with the second platform at the bottom and the first platform in the upper-middle part of the support frame 1. The second platform has a groove for collecting unloaded material. When technicians add materials to the production line, some material falls through the gaps into the groove on the second platform. Currently, to reduce material costs, technicians need to go to the second platform to transfer the spilled material back up. However, the passageway between the first and second platforms is sloping, which increases the labor intensity of technicians and affects work efficiency. This device only requires technicians to transport the spilled material from the second platform to the first platform via the hopper 2, thus achieving the purpose of reusing the unloaded material for production.

[0019] The winch 3 is mounted on one side of the support frame 1. The support frame 1 also has a limiting wheel 5, which is located on the same side as the winch 3. The wire rope 4 passes over the inside of the limiting wheel 5. The limiting wheel 5 is connected to the support frame 1 via a bracket and can rotate on the bracket. The wire rope 4 passes over the inside of the limiting wheel 5, increasing the tension of the wire rope 4 and preventing relative slippage between the wire rope 4 and the limiting wheel 5. The pulley block includes a first stationary pulley 6, a second stationary pulley 7, and a movable pulley 8. The first stationary pulley 6 and the second stationary pulley 7 are arranged laterally, with the first stationary pulley 6 located closer to the limiting wheel 5 and the second stationary pulley 7 located further away from the limiting wheel 5. The movable pulley 8 is rotatably connected to the hopper 2. The first stationary pulley 6 changes the direction of force, facilitating transition. The second stationary pulley 7 and the movable pulley 8 have the same tangent, so that the force applied to the movable pulley 8 is vertically upward, thereby enabling the hopper 2 to move vertically upward. The wire rope 4 passes sequentially through the limit wheel 5, the first stationary pulley 6, the second stationary pulley 7, and the movable pulley 8. The end of the wire rope 4 is fixedly connected to the support frame 1, and the wire rope 4 between the movable pulley 8 and the second stationary pulley 7 is arranged vertically.

[0020] like Figure 4 As shown, the hopper 2 includes a base plate and three baffles. The base plate is square, and the three baffles are arranged circumferentially around the base plate. Side plates are formed on both sides of the base plate, and a rear panel is formed at the back of the base plate. The hopper 2 is equipped with a transfer cart. Technicians first load the material from the trough into the transfer cart, and then push the transfer cart into the hopper 2. The transfer cart is a single-wheeled cart with a bucket for transporting materials. A stabilizing component 9 is installed in the hopper 2. The transfer cart has a handle. The stabilizing component 9 improves the stability of the transfer cart by limiting the movement area of ​​the handle, preventing the transfer cart from tipping over in the hopper 2. After the hopper 2 rises to the first platform, technicians only need to push the transfer cart out to deliver the material to the production location, without having to unload it from the hopper 2, thus reducing labor intensity. The upper part of the support frame 1 is equipped with a fence 11, which surrounds the outside of the support frame 1. The fence 11 has a door for technicians to pass through, allowing technicians to place or push out the transfer cart.

[0021] Of course, the above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, and the present utility model is not limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
