Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of feeding devices, and in particular to an electrolytic cell feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] Electrolysis is a process that utilizes electrochemical reactions occurring at the interface between electrodes (which act as electron conductors) and electrolytes (which act as ion conductors) to synthesize chemicals, manufacture high-purity substances, and treat material surfaces. When an electric current is applied, cations in the electrolyte move towards the cathode, absorb electrons, undergo reduction reactions, and generate new substances; anions in the electrolyte move towards the anode, release electrons, undergo oxidation reactions, and generate new substances.

[0003] In existing electrolytic cells, feeding is typically done manually, which is labor-intensive and makes it difficult to ensure the continuity and uniformity of the feeding process. Adding large quantities of electrolytic raw materials from a single feeding point can easily affect the quality of subsequent electrolysis operations. Therefore, a uniform and continuous feeding device was designed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an electrolytic cell feeding device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is:

[0006] An electrolytic cell feeding device includes: a feeding box disposed on the top of the electrolytic cell; a feeding assembly disposed on the electrolytic cell, the feeding assembly further including: a housing fixedly disposed on one side of the top of the electrolytic cell; a threaded rod rotatably disposed inside the housing; a motor disposed at one end of the housing, with its output shaft inserted into the threaded rod and fixedly connected to the threaded rod; a threaded block fixedly disposed at the bottom of the feeding box and threadedly connected to the threaded rod through it; a perforated plate inserted at one end into the feeding box; a guide plate fixedly disposed on one side of the electrolytic cell; and a protruding rod with its top end passing through a guide groove on the guide plate and fixedly connected to one end of the perforated plate.

[0007] In some embodiments, the holes at the bottom of the feeding box are the same size as the holes on the perforated plate.

[0008] In some embodiments, the feeding assembly further includes a sealing strip fitted over the outside of the perforated plate and fixedly connected to the feeding box.

[0009] In some embodiments, the feeding assembly further includes: a vertical plate fixedly disposed on the top of one end of the perforated plate; and two ends of a spring fixedly connected to the inner sidewalls of the vertical plate and the feeding box, respectively.

[0010] In some embodiments, the feeding assembly further includes: a limiting rod disposed inside the spring, with one end penetrating the upright plate and both ends fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feeding box.

[0011] In some embodiments, the inside of the feeding box is provided with a cutting assembly, the cutting assembly including: one end of a crossbar passing through the inner sidewall of the feeding box and fixedly connected to the upright plate; and one upright fixedly disposed at the bottom of the crossbar.

[0012] In some embodiments, the slitting assembly further includes: a plate body fixedly disposed inside the feeding box; and a second upright fixedly disposed at the bottom of the plate body.

[0013] In some embodiments, the slitting assembly further includes: a groove formed on the top of the feeding box; and protrusions fixedly disposed at both ends of the plate.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] The feeding device utilizes a motor-driven threaded rod connected to a threaded block to rotate the feeding box at the top of the electrolytic cell. Simultaneously, a convex rod slides inside a guide plate, controlling the reciprocating movement of a perforated plate within the feeding box. This aligns the holes on the perforated plate with the holes in the feeding box, allowing material to pass through. The device provides uniform feeding into the electrolytic cell during movement. Compared to existing devices, this method offers continuous and uniform feeding with higher efficiency. Attached Figure Description

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0025] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0026] Given the current technology, existing electrolytic cells are generally fed manually by personnel, which places a heavy workload on the workers and makes it difficult to ensure the continuity and uniformity of the feeding process. When a large amount of electrolytic raw material is added into the electrolytic cell from a single feeding point, it can easily affect the quality of subsequent electrolysis operations.

[0027] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment of the utility model provides an electrolytic cell feeding device.

[0028] The device includes: a feeding box 12 disposed on the top of an electrolytic cell 11; a feeding assembly 2 disposed on the electrolytic cell 11, the feeding assembly 2 further including: a housing 21 fixedly disposed on one side of the top of the electrolytic cell 11; a threaded rod 22 rotatably disposed inside the housing 21; a motor 23 disposed at one end of the housing 21, with its output shaft inserted into the inside of the threaded rod 22 and fixedly connected to the threaded rod 22; a threaded block 24 fixedly disposed at the bottom of the feeding box 12 and threadedly connected to the threaded rod 22 through it; a perforated plate 25 with one end inserted into the inside of the feeding box 12; a guide plate 26 fixedly disposed on one side of the electrolytic cell 11; and a protruding rod 27 with its top end passing through a guide groove on the guide plate 26 and fixedly connected to one end of the perforated plate 25.

[0029] In use, first connect the motor 23 to an external power source, then place the material to be added into the feeding box 12 (e.g., copper, zinc, nickel, sodium chloride, sulfuric acid, etc.). Then, the motor 23 controls the threaded rod 22 to rotate. At this time, the threaded rod 22 is threadedly connected to the threaded block 24. Since the threaded block 24 is located inside the housing 21 and is restricted from rotating, when the threaded rod 22 rotates, it controls the threaded block 24 to slide inside the housing 21, thereby driving the feeding box 12 at the top to move accordingly. The protruding rod 27 at one end of the perforated plate 25 inside the feeding box 12 slides inside the guide groove on the guide plate 26, which can control the perforated plate 25 to move back and forth inside the feeding box 12. During the movement, when the holes on the perforated plate 25 are aligned with the holes on the feeding box 12, the material can fall. When they are misaligned, the material can be blocked from falling. During the movement of the feeding box 12, the material can be evenly added into the electrolytic cell 11.

[0030] In some embodiments, the holes at the bottom of the feeding box 12 are the same size as the holes on the perforated plate 25.

[0031] Consistent sizes allow for better overlap during movement.

[0032] In some embodiments, the feeding assembly 2 further includes a sealing strip 251 sleeved on the outside of the perforated plate 25 and fixedly connected to the feeding box 12.

[0033] The sealing strip 251 is designed to seal the gap between the perforated plate 25 and the feeding box 12, thereby preventing material from overflowing from the gap.

[0034] In some embodiments, the feeding assembly 2 further includes: a vertical plate 28 fixedly disposed on the top of one end of the perforated plate 25; and two ends of a spring 29 fixedly connected to the vertical plate 28 and the inner sidewall of the feeding box 12, respectively.

[0035] The design of spring 29 and vertical plate 28 allows the vertical plate 28 to compress spring 29 when the perforated plate 25 moves, and the rebound force of spring 29 can better push the perforated plate 25 to move.

[0036] In some embodiments, the feeding assembly 2 further includes: a limiting rod 291 disposed inside the spring 29, with one end penetrating through the upright plate 28, and both ends fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of the feeding box 12.

[0037] The design of the limiting rod 291 can limit the bending of the spring 29, thereby better protecting the spring 29 to a certain extent.

[0038] In some embodiments, the inside of the feeding box 12 is provided with a cutting assembly 3, the cutting assembly 3 including: one end of a crossbar 31 passing through the inner sidewall of the feeding box 12 and fixedly connected to the upright plate 28; and an upright 32 fixedly disposed at the bottom of the crossbar 31.

[0039] The horizontal bar 31 and the vertical bar 32 are designed to move back and forth with the perforated plate 25, which can cut the clumped material when adding granular material, so that it can fall more easily.

[0040] In some embodiments, the slitting assembly 3 further includes: a plate 33 fixedly disposed inside the feeding box 12; and a second upright 34 fixedly disposed at the bottom of the plate 33.

[0041] The plate 33 and the second upright 34 are designed to remain fixed. When the first upright 32 moves, it intersects with the second upright 34, which can better clamp the clumps of material and better align and cut them.

[0042] In some embodiments, the slitting assembly 3 further includes: a groove 35 formed on the top of the feeding box 12; and protrusions 36 fixedly disposed at both ends of the plate 33.

[0043] The design of the groove 35 and the protrusion 36 allows for better disassembly of the second upright 34 and the plate 33, thereby allowing materials to be added to the inside of the feeding box 12.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
