Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of zinc smelting technology, and in particular to a semi-automatic rejection device for zinc electrowinning units. Background Technology
[0002] In the zinc electrowinning industry, the cathode plates used are mostly pure aluminum plates. Because pure aluminum plates are relatively soft, they are prone to localized deformation during production. To meet the quality requirements of subsequent production, cathode plates requiring repair or correction are currently mainly handled manually using the rejection function of equipment. However, existing rejection devices have significant limitations: their plate storage capacity is limited, holding only a small number of plates at a time; and the operation often requires two people working together multiple times, which not only severely impacts production efficiency but also increases the frequency of hoisting, leading to a significant increase in safety hazards. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing zinc electrowinning rejection devices by providing a semi-automatic rejection device for zinc electrowinning units. This device includes two main bodies located on either side of a conveyor chain. From front to back, each main body comprises a transition support, a storage rod, and a limiting rod. This invention effectively optimizes the zinc electrowinning production process, improves production efficiency, and reduces safety risks.
[0004] A semi-automatic rejection device for a zinc electrowinning unit, comprising two device bodies located on opposite sides of a conveyor chain 4, wherein the device bodies consist of a transition support 1, a storage rod 2, and a limiting rod 3 from front to back.
[0005] Advantages of this utility model:
[0006] 1. This utility model effectively solves the problem of insufficient productivity of the original equipment, reduces the need for frequent auxiliary operations by personnel, greatly liberates labor, and improves production efficiency.
[0007] 2. This utility model has strong adaptability and can be well adapted to zinc electrowinning units with different production scales and production environments.
[0008] 3. The device of this utility model has a simple structure and is easy to operate. A single person can complete the removal operation, which reduces the difficulty and labor intensity of manual operation. Attached Figure Description

[0012] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0013] Example 1
[0014] A semi-automatic rejection device for a zinc electrowinning unit includes two device bodies located on both sides of a conveyor chain 4. The device bodies consist of a transition support 1, a storage rod 2, and a limiting rod 3 from front to back.
[0015] During operation, the cathode plates are transported via a conveyor chain. When a cathode plate requires repair or correction, the two main units of the device move closer to the conveyor chain, transferring the cathode plate to a transition support. Under the pressure of subsequent cathode plates, the plate reaches the storage rod and the limiting rod, with the rejected cathode plates tightly packed together in sequence. As this process continues, the cathode plates are automatically concentrated without manual stacking, ultimately achieving the desired rejection target.
[0016] The above embodiments are illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. It is understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
