Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of auxiliary equipment for copper electrolysis process, and specifically relates to a cathode plate grinding device. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of copper electrolysis, the surface finish of stainless steel cathode plates gradually declines after long-term cyclic use. This not only damages the quality of the cathode copper but also increases DC power consumption and processing costs. Grinding is a crucial step in the production and maintenance of cathode plates; however, existing cathode plate grinding equipment suffers from numerous technical shortcomings. 1. Insufficient grinding precision and adaptability: It is difficult to perform precise regional grinding on different areas such as the area near the clamping strip of the cathode plate, the entire plate surface, and the liquid level line, which affects the grinding effect and efficiency.
[0003] 2. Poor communication and power supply reliability: Multifunctional composite cables (which simultaneously provide power and data transmission) are often used between mobile equipment (such as grinding trolleys) and fixed control stations. Due to frequent movement and bending, the cables are prone to wear, breakage, and signal interference, resulting in communication interruptions or unstable power supply, which affects the stable operation of the equipment.
[0004] 3. Low level of intelligence: It lacks real-time monitoring and intelligent diagnosis of the operating status of key components of the equipment, making fault diagnosis difficult and downtime long; at the same time, it lacks effective tracking and management of the grinding status of the cathode plate, which can easily lead to repeated grinding or missed grinding.
[0005] 4. Poor dust control: low dust collection efficiency or inconvenient maintenance, harsh working environment, and failure to meet environmental protection requirements.
[0006] In summary, existing technologies are insufficient to meet the high precision, high reliability, high intelligence, and high environmental protection requirements of modern industry for cathode plate grinding operations. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-efficiency and intelligent cathode plate grinding device to address the shortcomings of existing technologies.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A cathode plate polishing device includes a plate storage frame, a polishing trolley, a dust collector, and a control system. The plate storage frame has positioning cones at one pair of opposite corners on its top and positioning seats at another pair of opposite corners. Arrangement combs are provided on the inner sides of both sides of the plate storage frame. The polishing trolley is mounted on the plate storage frame via two traveling modules, and moves back and forth on the traveling modules via a servo motor. The polishing trolley includes a liquid level line area polishing roller group, a plate surface area polishing roller group, an edge strip area polishing roller group, a lifting module, and a base plate. Two sets of each of the liquid level line area polishing roller group, plate surface area polishing roller group, and edge strip area polishing roller group are provided, symmetrically arranged on the base plate. The dust collector and control system are mounted on the polishing trolley.
[0009] In this invention, the storage rack is used to support cathode plates to be ground and those already ground. The grinding carriage is equipped with grinding roller groups for the liquid level area, the plate surface area, and the edge strip area. These roller groups are precisely adapted to the grinding requirements of different areas of the cathode plate (edge strip, plate surface, liquid level line) according to process requirements, achieving precise control of differentiated pressure parameters and significantly improving grinding quality and consistency. A dust collector is integrated into the grinding carriage to collect the dust produced during grinding.

[0012] As a further explanation of this utility model, the panel surface grinding roller assembly includes a sliding cylinder II, a motor bracket, a conveyor belt, a motor, a panel surface grinding brush roller, and a brush roller bracket; two sliding cylinders II are provided, which are respectively fixedly installed at both ends of the base plate of the grinding carriage; the motor bracket and the brush roller bracket are respectively fixedly installed on the sliding cylinder II, and holes are opened at corresponding positions on the upper part of the motor bracket and the brush roller bracket to install bearings; the motor is fixedly installed on the motor bracket; one end of the panel surface grinding brush roller is fitted into the bearing of the brush roller bracket, and the other end passes through the bearing of the motor bracket and is connected to the output end of the motor through the conveyor belt.
[0013] As a further explanation of this utility model, the grinding roller assembly for the liquid level line area comprises a left-right traveling module, a sliding cylinder I, a cylinder base, a motor base, a drive motor, and a liquid level line brush roller; the left-right traveling module is mounted on the frame of the grinding carriage, and the cylinder base is mounted on the left-right traveling module; the sliding cylinder I is fixedly mounted on the cylinder base; the motor base is fixedly mounted on the sliding cylinder I; the drive motor is fixedly mounted on the motor base; and the liquid level line brush roller is fixed to the output end of the drive motor.
[0014] In this invention, a modular grinding brush roller assembly is provided, comprising multiple dedicated brush roller units (such as edge strip brush roller group, board surface brush roller group, and liquid level line brush roller group) that can work independently or in combination. Each brush roller unit is driven by an independent servo motor and can also be equipped with a pressure sensor or displacement sensor to achieve precise pressure and position control.
[0015] As a further explanation of this utility model, the dust collector includes a vacuum emitter, a sealing cover, and a dust collection bag; the vacuum emitter is fixedly installed on the base plate of the grinding carriage; the dust collection bag is fixed to one end of the vacuum emitter with a pipe clamp; and the sealing cover is fixedly installed on the frame around the grinding carriage.
[0016] As a further explanation of this utility model, the control system is a distributed control system, adopting a distributed control architecture (DCS). It includes an onboard drive substation installed on the grinding trolley and a central operating station with an operator's cab. The central operating station includes a human-machine interface (HMI) for parameter setting, status monitoring, task start / stop, and alarm handling. The onboard drive substation includes an electrical control box and electrical components; the microprocessor in the electrical control box is electrically connected to the servo motors of the traveling module, the servo motors of the lifting module, the sliding cylinder III and pneumatic motor of the edge-grinding roller group, the sliding cylinder II and motor of the panel area grinding roller group, the sliding cylinder I and drive motor of the liquid level line area grinding roller group, the servo motors of the left and right traveling modules, and the vacuum emitter of the dust collector, directly controlling the working status of the traveling module, lifting module, each grinding brush roller group, and dust collector.
[0017] Dedicated Wireless Data Channel: A full-duplex, high-real-time data link is established between the ground central control station and the vehicle-mounted drive substation via an industrial-grade high-speed wireless communication module, handling the transmission of all control commands, status feedback, and sensor data; completely avoiding the risks of communication cable damage and signal transmission instability caused by physical dragging.

Embedded Intelligent Diagnostic System: Deployed at the vehicle-mounted substation and / or ground control station, it collects real-time data on the position of key component lifting devices and brush roller pressure.
[0018] The working process of this utility model is as follows: (1) Loading and parameter setting: Place the entire cathode plate in the storage rack; the operator sets the target cathode plate, grinding area (edge strip, plate surface, liquid level line or combination thereof), grinding pressure and grinding speed parameters corresponding to each area through the ground central operating station. The system marks the entire cathode plate as "to be ground".
[0019] (2) Cart positioning: Under the drive of the traveling module, the grinding trolley moves precisely to the top of the target cathode plate according to the positioning information.
[0020] (3) Cathode plate height adjustment: The cathode plate lifting module is started to lift the target cathode plate to the preset polishing height.
[0021] (4) Precise grinding and synchronous dust collection in different areas: The modular grinding brush roller assembly automatically adjusts the corresponding brush roller unit to the working position according to the set grinding area. Each brush roller unit is driven independently by its servo motor and grinds the designated area of each cathode plate according to the set pressure.
[0022] (5) Completion and transfer: After the current cathode plate is polished in the set area, the lifting module lowers it back to its original position; the polishing trolley moves to the position of the next target cathode plate for polishing, and the dust collection device runs throughout the process, collecting and efficiently removing the generated dust through negative pressure.
[0023] (6) Cycle and End: Repeat steps 2 to 5 until the grinding operation of the entire cathode plate in the tank is completed; the grinding trolley returns to its original position on the storage rack. When the entire cathode plate in the tank is removed, the system updates the status of the cathode plate in the tank to "grinded and removed" and records the grinding details.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. High-precision zoned grinding: The modular brush roller assembly, combined with independent servo drive and closed-loop control, can accurately adapt to the grinding requirements of different areas of the cathode plate (edge strip, plate surface, liquid level line) according to process requirements, realize precise control of differentiated parameter pressure, and significantly improve grinding quality and consistency.
[0025] 2. High-Reliability Communication and Power Supply: Utilizing a dual-channel physically isolated architecture of "wireless data channel + dedicated cable power supply channel": The dedicated wireless data channel completely resolves communication interruptions and signal interference issues caused by physical damage to the cable in mobile devices, ensuring real-time control commands and accurate status feedback. The dedicated cable power supply channel solely handles power supply, featuring a simplified structure, high mechanical strength, and stable impedance characteristics, significantly improving power supply reliability and durability.
[0026] 3. Highly efficient and environmentally friendly dust removal: The integrated dust collection device can efficiently capture grinding dust and improve the working environment.
[0027] 4. Stable and efficient operation: The application of industrial bus protocols such as servo drive, high-precision encoder positioning, and PROFINET ensures high stability, high precision, and high efficiency in the overall operation of the equipment. Attached Figure Description
