Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cathode carbon block production equipment, and in particular to a transition feeding device. [Background Technology]

[0002] Cathode carbon blocks refer to carbon blocks made from high-quality anthracite, coke, graphite, and other raw materials. Cathode carbon blocks are an important component of aluminum electrolytic cells, specifically serving as the cathode and acting as both conductors of electricity and the lining of the electrolytic cell.

[0003] In the production of cathode carbon blocks, a cutting device is needed to machine two grooves on the top surface of the cathode carbon block. Since the cathode carbon block is relatively long, a main conveyor trolley is required to move it during the cutting process. However, in actual processing, manually moving the cathode carbon block onto the main conveyor trolley is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also significantly reduces production efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a transition feeding device that can automatically transport the cathode carbon block onto the main conveyor trolley. [Utility Model Content]

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a transition feeding device that can automatically transport cathode carbon blocks to the main conveyor, which helps to improve production efficiency.

[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows: a transition feeding device, including a main conveyor, a transition conveyor, a transition conveyor vehicle, and a lifting mechanism;

[0006] The transition conveyor is located on either side of the main conveyor, and the conveying directions of the main conveyor and the transition conveyor are perpendicular to each other. The transition conveyor has a first clearance channel in the middle of the end near the main conveyor along the conveying direction. The transition conveyor is movably installed in the first clearance channel, and the lifting mechanism is installed on the top of the transition conveyor. The middle of the main conveyor has a second clearance channel that is connected to the first clearance channel to allow the transition conveyor to enter. Material support platforms are formed on both sides of the second clearance channel.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the second clearance channel is provided with a traveling boss at the position of the first track wheel on both sides, and the traveling boss is flush with the bottom of the first track wheel.

[0012] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism includes a fixed plate, a lifting plate, and a lifting cylinder;
