Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum rod recycling technology, and in particular to a waste aluminum rod recycling device. Background Technology

[0002] The recycling of waste aluminum rods typically involves two steps: cutting and crushing, to improve the efficiency of subsequent recycling and processing and increase the added value of the products. However, existing recycling devices still have some problems when processing waste aluminum rods, especially in the cutting process before feeding waste aluminum rods of different lengths into the crusher. The currently used cutting methods lack automation and often require manual intervention, resulting in low production efficiency and low operational safety. Therefore, we propose a waste aluminum rod recycling device. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a highly efficient waste aluminum rod recycling device that integrates cutting and crushing functions. This device can not only accommodate the length of the waste aluminum rods entering the machine, but also automatically and precisely cut them inside the machine. Furthermore, it can directly feed the cut waste aluminum rods into a crusher for crushing, greatly simplifying the entire recycling process.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A waste aluminum rod recycling device includes a conveying device, a crusher, and a first cutting chamber. The conveying device is installed on one side of the first cutting chamber. The bottom of the first cutting chamber is connected to the feed inlet of the crusher. A second cutting chamber is provided at the top of the first cutting chamber corresponding to the conveying end of the conveying device. A lifting cutting mechanism is installed in the second cutting chamber. A fixed cutting mechanism is provided at the top of the first cutting chamber near the second cutting chamber. An inclined guide frame is provided below the second cutting chamber. Both the lifting cutting mechanism and the fixed cutting mechanism are band saws. The band saw of the lifting cutting mechanism is installed on the lifting frame, and the inclined guide frame has a cutting groove corresponding to the saw blade of the band saw.

[0005] Furthermore, the conveying device is a chain conveyor or a belt conveyor, used to transport waste aluminum rods.

[0006] Furthermore, the crusher is selected as a twin-shaft shredder or a metal crusher, the crusher is installed on the equipment support, and the discharge port is equipped with an inclined discharge rack.

[0007] Furthermore, the top of the first cutting chamber is inclined from the side of the second cutting chamber toward the other side, and is parallel to the inclined guide frame, forming an inclined guide cavity to guide the sliding of the waste aluminum rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the second cutting chamber is connected to the output end of the corresponding conveying device and has an inlet.

[0009] Furthermore, a cylinder is installed at the top of the second cutting chamber, and the output end of the cylinder extends into the second cutting chamber and is fixedly connected to the lifting frame.

[0010] Furthermore, the lifting frame consists of a horizontal plate and vertical plates symmetrically installed on both sides of the bottom. The band saw is installed in two units, each installed on one of the two vertical plates.

[0011] Furthermore, the length of the cutting groove is greater than the diameter of the band saw blade.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. Integrated design simplifies the recycling process: The cutting and crushing functions are integrated into one unit. Waste aluminum rods can be cut and crushed sequentially within the device, eliminating intermediate transfer links and greatly simplifying the entire recycling process and improving recycling efficiency.

[0013] 2.

However, this utility model can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the disclosure of this utility model more thorough and complete.

[0019] It should be noted that when an element is said to be fixed to another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is said to be connected to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. The terms vertical, horizontal, left, right and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.

[0020] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention. The terminology used herein includes and / or includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0021] Example 1 like Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a waste aluminum rod recycling device, including a conveying device 1, a crusher 2 and a first cutting chamber 3. The conveying device 1 is installed on one side of the first cutting chamber 3. The bottom of the first cutting chamber 3 is connected to the feed inlet of the crusher 2. The top of the first cutting chamber 3 is provided with a second cutting chamber 31 corresponding to the conveying end of the conveying device 1. The second cutting chamber 31 is equipped with a lifting cutting mechanism 4. The top of the first cutting chamber 3 is near the second cutting chamber 31 and a fixed cutting mechanism 5 is provided. The bottom of the second cutting chamber 31 is provided with an inclined guide frame 6. Both the lifting cutting mechanism 4 and the fixed cutting mechanism 5 are band saws 7. The band saw 7 of the lifting cutting mechanism 4 is installed on the lifting frame 8. The inclined guide frame 6 is provided with a cutting groove 61 corresponding to the saw blade of the band saw 7.

[0022] In practical applications, the various components of the above-mentioned device work together to complete the recycling of waste aluminum rods. The conveying device 1 is responsible for stably and continuously conveying the waste aluminum rods to be processed into the second cutting chamber 31. After the waste aluminum rods enter the second cutting chamber 31, the lifting cutting mechanism 4 will adjust accordingly according to the length of the waste aluminum rods and work in coordination with the fixed cutting mechanism 5 to cut the longer and shorter waste aluminum rods respectively. The cut waste aluminum rods will slide down along the inclined guide frame 6 to the bottom of the first cutting chamber 3 and then enter the crusher 2 for crushing.

[0023] Example 2 like Figure 1-4 As shown, the conveying device 1 is a chain plate conveyor or a belt conveyor, used to transport waste aluminum rods. The chain plate conveyor has the characteristics of strong load-bearing capacity and stable conveying, and is suitable for conveying waste aluminum rods with large weight and irregular shape. The belt conveyor has the advantages of simple structure, stable operation and low noise, and is better for conveying some relatively light and smooth waste aluminum rods. In actual production, the choice can be made according to the specific situation of the waste aluminum rods and production needs.

[0024] Crusher 2 can be a twin-shaft shredder or a metal shredder. The twin-shaft shredder has a strong shredding capacity and can shred waste aluminum rods into smaller pieces, which is convenient for subsequent smelting and other processing. The metal shredder can crush waste aluminum rods into finer particles, improving the purity and quality of recycled aluminum. In actual production, the choice can be made according to the specific situation of waste aluminum rods and production needs. Furthermore, the crusher 2 is mounted on the equipment support 21, which provides stable support for the crusher 2 and ensures the stability of the crusher 2 during operation. The discharge port of the crusher 2 is equipped with an inclined discharge rack 22, which helps to smoothly discharge the crushed aluminum material and avoid the accumulation of aluminum material at the discharge port. A belt conveyor can be added to transport the aluminum material out.

[0025] The top of the first cutting chamber 3 is inclined from the side of the second cutting chamber 31 toward the other side and is parallel to the inclined guide frame 6, forming an inclined guide cavity 32 to guide the waste aluminum rod to slide. This inclined design allows the waste aluminum rod to slide smoothly down the inclined guide cavity 32 to the feed inlet of the crusher 2 by its own gravity after cutting, without the need for additional power drive, which saves energy and improves the operating efficiency of the whole device.

[0026] The second cutting chamber 31 is connected to the output end of the corresponding conveying device 1 and has an inlet 33. The size and shape of the inlet 33 are designed according to the required size of the waste aluminum rods to ensure that the waste aluminum rods can smoothly enter the second cutting chamber 31 for cutting.

[0027] A cylinder 41 is installed at the top of the second cutting chamber 31. The output end of the cylinder 41 extends into the second cutting chamber 31 and is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 8. The cylinder 41 serves as the lifting power source for the lifting cutting mechanism 4. By controlling the extension and retraction of the cylinder 41, the lifting frame 8 can be moved up and down, thereby realizing the lifting of the band saw 7 installed on the lifting frame 8 to meet the cutting needs of waste aluminum rods of different lengths.

[0028] The lifting frame 8 consists of a horizontal plate 81 and vertical plates 82 symmetrically installed on both sides of the bottom. This structure allows the lifting frame 8 to support and install band saws 7. Two band saws 7 are installed, each on one of the two vertical plates 82. The two band saws 7 work together to cut the long waste aluminum rods into three parts, which are then fed into the crusher 2 for better crushing.

[0029] The length of the cutting groove 61 is greater than the diameter of the band saw blade 7, so that when the band saw blade 7 is cutting, the saw blade can completely pass through the cutting groove 61, ensuring that the cutting process is carried out smoothly and avoiding interference between the saw blade and the inclined guide frame 6.

[0030] Work process: When using a waste aluminum rod recycling device, the waste aluminum rod is placed at the starting end of the conveying device 1. Driven by the conveying device 1, the waste aluminum rod enters the second cutting chamber 31 through the feed port 33. Processing of longer scrap aluminum rods: If the scrap aluminum rod is too long to reach the fixed cutting mechanism 5 directly, the control cylinder 41 extends, driving the lifting frame 8 downwards, causing the band saw 7 in the lifting cutting mechanism 4 to descend to a suitable height. The band saw 7 of the lifting cutting mechanism 4 is then activated, cutting the longer scrap aluminum rod. As the cutting progresses, the scrap aluminum rod is divided into segments of suitable length. The cut segments slide down the inclined guide frame 6 to the bottom of the first cutting chamber 3. To achieve automatic control of the cutting mechanism based on the length of the scrap aluminum rod, a [missing information - likely a device or mechanism] is installed in the second cutting chamber 31. A length sensing device, such as a laser rangefinder, is used. It emits a laser beam and measures the time it takes for the laser to travel from emission to reflection, thereby accurately calculating the distance to the end of the scrap aluminum rod. After the scrap aluminum rod enters the second cutting chamber 31, the laser rangefinder continuously monitors the distance to the end of the scrap aluminum rod. Specifically, the laser rangefinder is installed on the top of the second cutting chamber 31, near the feed inlet 33. This location was chosen because it is the earliest and most accurate place to detect the end of the scrap aluminum rod after it enters the second cutting chamber 31, thus obtaining the length information of the scrap aluminum rod in a timely manner.

[0031] Handling of shorter scrap aluminum rods: If the scrap aluminum rod is short, after entering the second cutting chamber 31, due to its own length, it does not need to be cut by the lifting cutting mechanism 4. The scrap aluminum rod will slide directly along the inclined guide frame 6 to the fixed cutting mechanism 5. At this time, the band saw 7 in the fixed cutting mechanism 5 cuts the scrap aluminum rod. The cut scrap aluminum rod also slides down along the inclined guide frame 6 to the bottom of the first cutting chamber 3.

[0032] The scrap aluminum rod segments that slide down to the bottom of the first cutting chamber 3 enter the feed inlet of the crusher 2. The crusher 2 crushes the scrap aluminum rod segments, and the crushed aluminum material is discharged through the inclined discharge rack 22, completing the entire recycling process of scrap aluminum rods.

[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
