Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrolysis, and in particular to an automatic inlet and outlet device that integrates inlet and outlet. Background Technology

[0002] In an electrolytic cycle of 18-24 hours, the cathode plates with deposited metal must be removed (hereinafter referred to as "removing from the tank") and then an empty cathode plate must be inserted (hereinafter referred to as "entering the tank"). This is the process of cathode plates entering and leaving the tank. Moreover, according to process requirements, after the cathode plate with metal is removed from the tank, the empty cathode plate must be quickly loaded into the tank in the shortest possible time, that is, the empty tank time must be short.

[0003] Currently, the first method of loading and unloading the electrode plates involves using a crane in the factory to remove the plates from the passivation tank, followed by manual, rapid loading of each plate into the tank. The second method uses a mechanical system that first removes the plates from the tank, places the plates with metal onto the passivation tank, then removes the empty plates and returns them to the empty position to complete the loading operation. The third method uses separate automatic loading and unloading equipment for the plate removal and loading machines. The plate removal machine first removes the plates with manganese, and once it leaves its working position, the loading machine quickly completes the loading operation.

[0004] Of the three methods above, the first method has a short emptying time, but it is almost entirely done manually. The second method has a long emptying time and low efficiency. The third method has a short emptying time, but it requires separate mechanisms for the slotting machine and the slotting machine, and the safety issues of overlapping slotting and slotting operations must be considered. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic inlet and outlet device that integrates inlet and outlet.

[0006] The innovation of this utility model lies in the fact that the inlet and outlet components are set on a connecting frame and move synchronously, which can not only meet the requirement of short empty time, but also ensure that the inlet and outlet operations do not overlap.

[0007] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: An automatic inlet and outlet device integrating inlet and outlet includes a support frame, a sliding frame and a drive mechanism for driving the sliding frame to move laterally and longitudinally on a horizontal plane, an inlet and outlet mechanism and a first drive component for driving the inlet and outlet mechanism to rotate, the inlet and outlet mechanism includes a connecting frame, an inlet component and an outlet component arranged in parallel on the connecting frame, and a second drive component for driving the inlet component to move up and down and a third drive component for driving the outlet component to move up and down on the connecting frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the support frame includes a double-rail beam, on which a movable frame is mounted. A sliding frame is arranged on the movable frame and can move along it. The sliding direction of the sliding frame is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the double-rail beam. The drive mechanism includes a fourth drive assembly for driving the movable frame to move along the double-rail beam and a fifth drive assembly for driving the sliding frame to move along the movable frame. By setting the movable frame on the double-rail beam to control the direction of the sliding frame, minute adjustments during slotting can be achieved, resulting in more precise slotting.

[0009] Furthermore, the inlet assembly includes an inlet frame and an inlet clamp detachably connected to the inlet frame, and the outlet assembly includes an outlet frame and an outlet clamp detachably connected to the outlet frame. The detachable structure allows for the replacement of the clamp during use to grip diaphragm frames, anode plates, etc.

[0010] Furthermore, a liquid receiving assembly is connected to the connecting frame for receiving liquid during tank discharge.

[0011] Furthermore, the liquid receiving assembly includes several connecting rods connected to the connecting frame and two sets of parallel movable rods located at the bottom of the connecting rods. Each movable rod has a liquid receiving tray that slides along it. The direction of movement of the liquid receiving tray is perpendicular to both the inlet and outlet components. A sixth drive component is provided on each movable rod to drive the liquid receiving tray. The liquid receiving tray has a movable structure, making operation convenient.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. In this utility model, the inlet and outlet components are set on a connecting frame, which can move horizontally and vertically and rotate synchronously on the horizontal plane. After exiting the slot, it can exit the slot with a slight movement, greatly shortening the empty slot time. Moreover, the outlet and inlet components do not cross each other, so there is no safety problem of collision.

[0013] 2. In this utility model, by setting a movable frame on the double-track beam, fine-tuning can be achieved during slotting, making slotting more precise.

[0014] 3. The clamp of this utility model is a detachable structure. Since there are no other mechanisms in this utility model and the rotation radius is slightly large, this utility model can also be used to clamp diaphragm frames, anode plates, etc. after the clamp is replaced.

[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Example 1: An automatic inlet and outlet device integrating inlet and outlet, comprising a support frame 1, a sliding frame 2 and a drive mechanism for driving the sliding frame 2 to move laterally and longitudinally on a horizontal plane, an inlet and outlet mechanism 4 and a first drive assembly 5 for driving the inlet and outlet mechanism 4 to rotate, the inlet and outlet mechanism 4 comprising a connecting frame 4.1, an inlet assembly 4.2 and an outlet assembly 4.3 arranged in parallel on the connecting frame 4.1, a second drive assembly 4.4 for driving the inlet assembly 4.2 to move up and down and a third drive assembly 4.5 for driving the outlet assembly 4.3 to move up and down on the connecting frame 4.1.

[0020] The support frame 1 includes a double-track beam 1.1, on which a movable frame 1.2 is mounted and moves. A sliding frame 2 is arranged on the movable frame 1.2 and can move on the movable frame 1.2. The sliding direction of the sliding frame 2 is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the double-track beam 1.1. The drive mechanism 3 includes a fourth drive assembly 3.1 for driving the movable frame 1.2 to move on the double-track beam 1.1 and a fifth drive assembly 3.2 for driving the sliding frame 2 to move on the movable frame 1.2.

[0021] The inlet assembly 4.2 includes an inlet frame 4.21 and an inlet clamp 4.22 detachably connected to the inlet frame 4.21. The outlet assembly 4.3 includes an outlet frame 4.31 and an outlet clamp 4.32 detachably connected to the outlet frame 4.31.

[0022] A liquid receiving assembly 4.6 is connected to the connecting frame 4.1. The liquid receiving assembly 4.6 includes several connecting rods 4.61 connected to the connecting frame 4.1 and two sets of parallel moving rods 4.62 located at the bottom of the connecting rods 4.61. The moving rods 4.62 are provided with a liquid receiving tray 4.63 that slides on the moving rods 4.62. The moving direction of the liquid receiving tray 4.63 is perpendicular to the inlet assembly 4.2 and the outlet assembly 4.3. The moving rods 4.62 are provided with a sixth driving assembly 4.64 that drives the liquid receiving tray 4.63 to move.

[0023] During operation: The inlet / outlet mechanism 4 takes a set of empty cathode plates arranged with equal spacing from the plate stacking machine via the inlet assembly 4.2 (the number of plates in one set is the same as the number of plates in one outlet operation). Carrying the empty cathode plates, the inlet / outlet mechanism 4 moves along the support frame 1 to precisely position itself above the electrolytic cell from which the outlet operation is about to begin, while rotating to align the plate orientation with that of the electrolytic cell. The outlet assembly 4.3 aligns with the electrolytic cell from which the outlet operation is about to begin, lifting and removing a set of plates with metal, moving the liquid receiving tray 4.64 downwards to receive the liquid, and simultaneously, the sliding frame 2 moves rapidly laterally on the moving frame 1.2, causing the outlet assembly 4.3 to leave the electrolytic cell from which the outlet operation has already begun, and the inlet assembly 4.2 to align with the electrolytic cell.

[0024] The loading assembly 4.2 quickly inserts a set of empty cathode plates into the electrolytic cell, completing the loading operation, and opens the clamps of the loading mechanism. While the loading assembly 4.2 is raised, the loading / unloading mechanism 4 rotates and moves, eventually aligning the unloading mechanism with the electrode plates in the passivation tank. The unloading assembly 4.3 places the electrode plates with metal onto the passivation tank, and the clamps on the unloading assembly 4.3 open. This completes one loading / unloading cycle. The loading assembly 4.2 then takes another set of empty cathode plates to begin the next loading / unloading operation.

[0025] The described embodiments are merely some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
