Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of anchor chain impregnation equipment, and more specifically, it relates to an anchor chain impregnation frame. Background Technology
[0002] Anchor chains are specialized chains that connect anchors to the hull and transmit anchor holding force. Anchor chains are crucial components related to the mooring safety of various ships and marine engineering equipment. Their service conditions are harsh, often involving high temperatures, high humidity, chemicals, air pollution, and high-salt salt spray in the ocean – environments prone to corrosion. If the surface of the anchor chain is not covered with anti-corrosion materials, its service life will be significantly shortened, seriously affecting the mooring safety of ships and marine engineering equipment. Coating the anchor chain surface with a layer of asphalt paint, which has excellent water resistance, moisture resistance, corrosion resistance, and chemical resistance, can greatly slow down the degree of corrosion and extend its service life. The anchor chain processing requires dipping equipment, which is a device used to coat the surface of objects.
[0003] Currently, the commonly used method of impregnation usually involves immersing the entire anchor chain into the paint bath. Since the anchor chain is relatively heavy, this method requires a large paint bath volume and a large lifting device. Furthermore, when the anchor chain is removed from the paint bath, knots or other issues may affect the impregnation effect. Another method involves using a traction machine to move the anchor chain in the paint bath for impregnation. However, when the anchor chain is moved, it can cause scratches on the edge of the bath, which can affect the paint finish and cause wear and tear on the edge of the bath over long-term use. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an anchor chain dipping frame that is easy to operate and produces a better paint finish.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0006] An anchor chain impregnation frame includes a truss with a rectangular track mounted on it. Several trolleys are slidably connected to the track, and hydraulic rods are mounted on the trolleys. A connecting rod is connected to the output end of the hydraulic rod, and a hook is provided at the bottom of the connecting rod.
[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: the short side of one side of the track rectangle is the loading and unloading point, and the lower part of the long side of one side of the track rectangle is the paint pool.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: four mobile trolleys can be parked simultaneously above the paint tank, and the two mobile trolleys in the middle of the four mobile trolleys are paint dipping trolleys, and the hydraulic rods of the paint dipping trolleys drive the hooks to be immersed in the paint tank.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the hook is in the shape of a 3 / 4 ring, and the hook can be used to attach anchor chain links.
[0010] The advantages of this utility model are:
[0011] The track is rectangular, with the paint tank located under the long side of one side of the rectangle. Operators attach the anchor chain links to the hooks at the loading point and move them along the track to the top of the paint tank using a trolley. Four trolleys can be arranged above the paint tank. The hooks of the two middle trolleys are immersed in the paint tank to impregnate the anchor chains. After impregnation, the anchor chains are removed and the trolleys continue to move, with subsequent trolleys performing the impregnation operation. Preliminary solidification occurs during the movement of the removed anchor chains, preventing damage to the paint surface during subsequent movements. The weight on a single lifting device is not large, so the overall tonnage requirement for the lifting device is not high. Furthermore, the anchor chains do not come into contact with other structures during the process, ensuring paint quality and facilitating operation. Attached Figure Description

[0019] Please see Figure 1-3 The present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0020] An anchor chain immersion frame includes a truss 1, on which a rectangular track 2 is mounted. Several trolleys 3 are slidably connected to the track 2, and hydraulic rods 4 are mounted on the trolleys 3. A connecting rod 5 is connected to the output end of the hydraulic rod 4, and a hook 6 is provided at the bottom of the connecting rod 5. When the hook 6 is immersed in the paint bath, part of the connecting rod 5 is immersed in the paint bath, which prevents the paint from contaminating the output shaft of the hydraulic rod 4. The hook 6 is in the shape of a 3 / 4 ring and can be used to hook anchor chain links. The hook is easy to hook and is not easy to fall off during movement.
[0021] The short side of one side of the rectangular track 2 is the loading and unloading point, and the bottom of the long side of one side of the rectangular track 2 is the paint tank. Four mobile trolleys 3 can be parked above the paint tank at the same time. The two mobile trolleys 3 in the middle of the four mobile trolleys 3 are paint dipping trolleys. The hydraulic rod 4 of the paint dipping trolley drives the hook 6 to be immersed in the paint tank.
[0022] When the trolley 3 moves to the loading / unloading point, the hydraulic rod 4 pushes the hook 6 down to a position close to the ground to facilitate loading and unloading. The operator performs loading and unloading operations, attaching or removing the corresponding anchor chain links. After the hydraulic rod 4 is reset, the trolley 3 continues to move.
[0023] Four movable trolleys 3 are installed above the paint tank. The hydraulic rods 4 on the two middle movable trolleys 3 are pressed down so that the anchor chain between the two middle movable trolleys 3 can be fully immersed in the paint tank. After the immersion is completed, the hydraulic rods 4 are reset. After the anchor chain is removed, the movable trolleys 3 continue to move forward, always keeping the anchor chain section between the middle positions immersed in the paint tank. This process is repeated to complete the immersion of all anchor chain sections without omission, and to avoid contact between the anchor chain and other components, thereby improving the quality of the finished paint surface.
[0024] Specifically, track 2 is rectangular, with the paint tank located under the long side of one side of the rectangle. The operator attaches the anchor chain link to the hook 6 at the loading point and moves it along track 2 to the top of the paint tank via the moving trolley 3. Four moving trolleys 3 can be arranged above the paint tank. The hooks 6 of the two middle trolleys are immersed in the paint tank to impregnate the anchor chain. After impregnation, the anchor chain is lifted out and continues to move. Subsequent trolleys continue the impregnation operation. The anchor chain will undergo initial solidification during the movement after being lifted out, preventing damage to the paint surface during subsequent movement. The weight on a single lifting device is not large, and the overall tonnage requirement of the lifting device is not high. In addition, the anchor chain does not come into contact with other structures during the process, ensuring the quality of the paint surface and facilitating operation.
