Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of washing device technology, and in particular to a cobalt plate washing device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, finished cobalt (nickel) plates in the electrolytic cobalt (nickel) industry need to be washed after leaving the tank. To ensure a good washing effect, the washing process is generally a three-step process of acid washing, water washing and hot water washing. However, automatic washing units cannot complete the three steps of washing at the same time, so electrolytic cobalt plates are mostly washed by soaking.

[0003] Practice has shown that if the cobalt plates are directly lifted by crane to each rinsing tank after being removed from the tank, multiple storage racks are needed to store the electrolytic cobalt plates and place them separately to prevent the pickling solution from adhering to the surface. This results in the crane being used for both removing and rinsing, which affects the efficiency of removing the plates. At the same time, the copper rods will be corroded in the pickling solution and rinsing tank when the electrolytic cobalt plates are lifted and placed into the rinsing tank, which will contaminate the surface of the electrolytic cobalt plates and cause the copper content of the electrolytic cobalt to exceed the standard. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems and shortcomings, this utility model provides a cobalt plate washing device, including a frame body. The frame body is composed of three layers: upper, middle and lower, which are welded together by columns. The bottom layer is formed by welding together two symmetrical connecting rods and adjustment frames. The middle layer and the top layer are both welded together by three fences. A gate is installed on the column on the same side of the middle layer and the top layer. Several base frames are provided between the adjustment frames. Multiple straight comb teeth are welded to the inner side of the fence on one side of the middle layer.

[0005] Furthermore, the adjustment frame is hollow inside and has a limit groove, with a guide rail installed near the edge of the limit groove.

[0006] Furthermore, the base frame includes a support rod, a partition column mounted on the surface of the support rod, and an adjustment mechanism mounted at both ends of the support rod.

[0007] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism consists of a limit block, a guide wheel, a brake pad, and a bolt. The limit block is fixedly connected to the end of the support rod, and the other side of the limit block is connected to the guide wheel through a bearing. The bolt passes through the brake pad and the guide wheel in sequence and is threadedly connected to the limit block.

[0008] Furthermore, the limiting block remains within the limiting groove, and the guide wheel is mounted within the guide rail and rolls.

[0009] Furthermore, the partition column and the support rod are connected by threads.

[0010] Furthermore, the top of the uppermost fence is equipped with lifting lugs.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model can be specifically analyzed as follows:

[0012] Advantage 1: The cobalt plate after being removed from the tank can be directly loaded into the frame body for the next washing step, saving storage racks and space; at the same time, the original soaking tank can soak one tank, but after using the frame body, it can soak 1.5 tanks, improving washing efficiency.

[0013] Advantage 2: In this application, the cobalt plate is placed on the inside of the frame body, which can avoid the copper rod corrosion from contaminating the cobalt plate and the residual liquid from the lifting lugs from contaminating the plate surface, making the washing more thorough and effective; at the same time, the installation of anti-slip gates prevents the cobalt plate from slipping during hoisting, ensuring washing safety.

[0014] Advantage 3: The main frame of this application can be customized according to the size of the cobalt plate, and an adjustment mechanism is installed to effectively adjust the bottom placement position of the cobalt plate to adapt to the use of electrolytic cobalt plates of different sizes.

[0019] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, and the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. Throughout the invention, the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] It should be understood that ordinal numbers and directional descriptions, such as "first," "second," "third," "upper," "lower," "left," and "right," are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Furthermore, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly and not as limiting the scope of this utility model.

[0021] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Please refer to the attached drawings. Figure 1-3 As shown, the cobalt plate washing device provided in this application includes a frame body 1, which is composed of three layers: upper, middle and lower, welded together by columns. The bottom layer is formed by welding together two symmetrical connecting rods 11 and adjusting frames 2. The middle and top layers are both welded together by three fences 12. A door 13 is installed on the column on the same side of the middle and top layers. The door is composed of a door nose and a pin. The two door noses are φ20 stainless steel hollow tubes with a length of 50mm, which are fixed to the column by welding. Several base frames 3 are provided between the adjusting frames 2. Multiple straight comb teeth 121 are welded to the inner side of the fence 12 on one side of the middle layer.

[0022] The frame body 1, connecting rod 11 and fence 12 are made of φ40 or φ50 hollow stainless steel pipe with a wall thickness of 3 to 5 mm and the length of the column is 1.2 m. The fence 12 can design the entire frame body 1 into a rectangle of any size to accommodate cobalt plates of different sizes. The adjustment frame 2 serves as the supporting base 3 and carries the cobalt plate. It adopts a square hollow stainless steel pipe structure with slots on both sides to accommodate the adjustment mechanism 4 for movement.

[0023] For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 As shown, the adjusting frame 2 is hollow inside and has a limiting groove 201. A guide rail 202 is installed near the edge of the limiting groove 201. The limiting block 401 is kept in the limiting groove 201 and moves. The guide wheel 402 is mounted in the guide rail 202 and keeps rolling. The guide rail 202 allows the guide wheel 402 to be locked inside it and roll. The limiting groove 201 is used to keep the limiting block 401 inside it and limit its movement, preventing the supporting base frame 3 from shifting.

[0024] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 As shown, the base frame 3 includes a support rod 31, a partition column 32 installed on the surface of the support rod 31, and an adjustment mechanism 4 installed at both ends of the support rod 31. The adjustment mechanism 4 consists of a limit block 401, a guide wheel 402, a brake pad 403, and a bolt 404. The limit block 401 is fixedly connected to the end of the support rod 31, and the other side of the limit block 401 is connected to the guide wheel 402 through a bearing. The bolt 404 penetrates the brake pad 403 and the guide wheel 402 and is connected to the limit block 401 through a thread.

[0025] The adjustment mechanism 4 is used to adjust the distance between the base frames 3, so as to carry different sizes of electrolytic cobalt. When it is necessary to adjust the base frame 3, simply loosen the bolts 404 at both ends of the base frame 3 to separate the brake pads 403 from the adjustment frame 2. Then move the base frame 3 to keep it on the adjustment frame 2. At this time, the guide wheel 402 is kept in the guide rail 202 and keeps rolling. At the same time, the limit block 401 is kept in the limit groove 201 and keeps it in the limit, forming a double limit. Then tighten the bolts 404 to make the brake pads 403 fit tightly against the outside of the adjustment frame 2 and lock it, thereby locking the base frame 3.

[0026] The partition column 32 and the support rod 31 are connected by threads. The partition column 32 can be detachably connected to the support rod 31 by threads. The positions of the partition column 32 on the support rod 31 and the comb teeth 121 on the intermediate layer fence 12 are kept in correspondence. After the electrolytic cobalt plate is removed from the tank, the copper rod is removed in advance and it is manually loaded into the washing device. The electrolytic cobalt plate is side-mounted and placed between the partition column 32 and the comb teeth 121 on the same longitudinal plane in an orderly manner. Each comb tooth 121 is separated by a space to put one electrolytic cobalt plate. Each frame body 1 can hold 0.5 slots of cobalt plate. Each soaking tank can hold three washing devices at the same time for soaking and washing.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the top of the uppermost fence 12 is equipped with a lifting lug 14. The lifting lug 14 is designed in a flat and streamlined shape and is equipped with a special hook to lift the frame body 1 into the washing tank for washing.

[0028] In summary, this utility model of a cobalt electrolytic plate washing device allows the electrolytic cobalt plates, after the copper rods have been removed from the tank, to be immediately placed into the frame body for the next operation. The frame body allows the electrolytic cobalt plates to be side-mounted, with each plate placed at intervals by a dividing comb to prevent adhesion between the plates. The cleanliness of the plate surface reaches Sa2.5 level, while greatly reducing residual liquid contamination of the plate surface, with residual liquid content ≤0.1mL / m².

[0029] The above are merely embodiments of this utility model. Common knowledge such as specific structures and characteristics in the solutions are not described in detail here. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the structure of this utility model. These modifications and improvements should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model, and they will not affect the implementation effect of this utility model or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application shall be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
