Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of high-purity aluminum production technology, and in particular relates to a high-purity aluminum production carrier. Background Technology

[0002] High-purity aluminum typically refers to metallic aluminum with a purity of 99.999% (5N) or higher. This extremely high purity endows it with excellent conductivity, ductility, and corrosion resistance, making it a core material in many high-end fields. For example, most high-purity aluminum is made into aluminum foil for manufacturing electrolytic capacitors, and it is also used as the lead wire for electrolytic capacitors and the wiring material for integrated circuits. In the semiconductor field, high-purity aluminum is a raw material for preparing semiconductor-grade sapphire and ruby ​​devices, and it is also used in the manufacture of optoelectronic storage media. High-purity aluminum is used to produce aluminum sputtering targets required for semiconductors and optoelectronic devices, and it is also used in superconducting materials.

[0003] In the production of high-purity aluminum ingots, a period of static natural cooling is required after they exit the refining furnace (at a temperature of approximately 500-600℃). Currently, most carriers used for cooling high-purity aluminum ingots on the market focus on forced cooling (such as water cooling) or conveying, such as the Chinese utility model patents CN203509007U (Copyright Announcement No. CN217223563U (Copyright Announcement No. CN222806091 ...

[0004] In existing technologies, when high-purity aluminum ingots need to be naturally cooled, they are often placed on simple supports or trolleys. However, when placing them... Figure 1 , 2 When placing a high-purity aluminum ingot 1 with a hollow U-shaped cross-section, its lower diameter is small and the carrier lacks an effective circumferential restraint mechanism, making it prone to tilting or even tipping over. This not only affects the uniformity of cooling but also poses a significant safety risk of injuring operators. Furthermore, when the high-purity aluminum ingot weighs 200-300 kg, it will generate a huge impact when placed on the carrier after being transferred from the refining furnace. The simple carrier lacks an effective buffer and shock absorption structure, and this impact force can easily cause structural damage and deformation of the carrier itself, shortening its service life. It may also cause bump damage to the bottom of the high-purity aluminum ingot. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this application provides a high-purity aluminum production carrier that can achieve cooling of high-purity aluminum ingots, stable placement, and minimal vibration during placement.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A high-purity aluminum production carrier includes a frame-type support, the support including a lower support and an upper support fixedly connected to the lower support; a support and buffer mechanism is provided on the lower support, the support and buffer mechanism including a base plate horizontally fixedly connected to the lower support, a plurality of sliding rods fixedly connected to the base plate, a support plate and a protective pad slidably sleeved on the sliding rods from bottom to top, and an elastic buffer assembly provided below the support plate; a limiting plate is fixedly connected to the upper end face of the upper support, and a limiting through hole is opened in the middle of the limiting plate for high-purity aluminum ingots to pass through and for circumferentially limiting the high-purity aluminum ingots.

[0007] Preferably, multiple sets of limiting components are provided on the limiting plate. Each set of limiting components includes two limiting blocks fixedly connected to the limiting plate and a limiting rod horizontally fixedly connected to the two limiting blocks. The limiting rod is located inside the limiting through hole.

[0008] Preferably, a limiting groove is formed on the lower end face of the limiting block, the limiting rod is inserted into the limiting groove, and the fastening bolt is rotatably inserted into the limiting block and threaded into the limiting plate to fix the limiting rod.

[0009] Preferably, the limiting plate has multiple adjustment holes that match each of the limiting blocks. The adjustment holes are opened sequentially from the inside to the outside of the limiting plate. The fastening bolts can be threaded into the required adjustment holes to adjust the position of the limiting rod.

[0010] Preferably, a base is fixedly connected to the base plate, and the slide rod is vertically fixedly inserted into the base.

[0011] Preferably, a sliding sleeve is slidably fitted onto the slide rod, and the upper end face of the sliding sleeve is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the support plate.

[0012] Preferably, a limiting plate is detachably and fixedly connected to the slide bar above the protective pad, the limiting plate being used to prevent the slide bar from detaching from the protective pad.

[0013] Preferably, the elastic buffer assembly includes a hydraulic buffer fixedly connected to the base plate, wherein the telescopic rod of the hydraulic buffer abuts against the support plate.

[0014] Preferably, a buffer pad is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the support leg of the lower bracket.

[0015] Preferably, the protective pad and the limiting rod are made of 310S stainless steel.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This utility model uses a multi-directional limiting mechanism consisting of a limiting through hole in a limiting plate and a limiting rod in a limiting component to constrain the outer circumference of a high-purity aluminum ingot from multiple directions, effectively preventing it from tipping over during placement and cooling, and eliminating the safety risks to operators and the risk of product damage from falling.

[0017] 2. By setting up a support and buffer mechanism, this utility model can convert the huge impact kinetic energy when placing high-purity aluminum ingots into the potential energy of the elastic buffer component, so as to achieve stable and flexible buffer placement, greatly reduce the instantaneous impact force on the carrier body, effectively protect the carrier structure, and significantly extend its service life.

[0018] 3. This utility model adopts a hollow frame structure (such as an upper support and a lower support), and leaves a gap between the outer circumference of the high-purity aluminum ingot and the inner wall of the limiting through hole, forming a smooth air convection channel. This creates a uniform and efficient natural convection cooling environment for the high-purity aluminum ingot, which is conducive to obtaining better material structure and properties.

[0019] 4. By setting multiple adjustment holes, the relative position of the limiting component can be adjusted, realizing adaptive adjustment for high-purity aluminum ingots of different diameters, and improving the versatility and flexibility of the carrier. Attached Figure Description

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

[0030] See appendix Figure 1-4 As shown, a high-purity aluminum production carrier includes a frame-type support 2, which includes a lower support 21 located below and an upper support 22 fixedly connected to the lower support 21.

[0031] Specifically, the lower support 21 includes four vertically arranged legs 211 and a lower support frame 212 of a rectangular frame structure horizontally welded to the upper end face of the four legs 211. The upper support 22 includes four support columns 221 vertically welded to the upper end face of the lower support frame 212 and an upper support frame 222 of a rectangular frame structure horizontally welded to the upper end face of the four support columns 221, that is, the upper support 22 has a hollow internal structure.

[0032] Furthermore, in order to improve the shock absorption effect when the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 is placed on this production carrier, a buffer pad 213 is fixedly bonded to the lower end face of the support leg 211 of the lower support 21. The buffer pad 213 can be made of existing rubber material.

[0033] A support and buffer mechanism 3 is provided on the upper support frame 222 of the lower support 21. The support and buffer mechanism 3 is used for shock absorption and buffering when the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 is placed on this production carrier.

[0034] See Figure 5 As shown, the support and buffer mechanism 3 includes a base plate 31 horizontally welded to the upper end face of the lower support frame 212 of the lower bracket 21, a plurality of slide rods 32 vertically fixedly connected to the base plate 31, a support plate 33 and a protective pad 34 slidably sleeved on the slide rods 32 from bottom to top, and an elastic buffer assembly 35 disposed below the support plate 33.

[0035] Specifically, to facilitate the vertical fixation of the slide rod 32 on the base plate 31, four bases 36 are fixedly connected to the base plate 31, and the four bases 36 are evenly distributed at the four corners of the upper surface of the base plate 31. Each base 36 has a vertically opening base connection hole, into which the slide rod 32 is vertically inserted. To detachably fix the slide rod 32 within the base connection hole, a horizontally opening locking through hole 361 is provided on the side of the base 36, penetrating the base connection hole. An existing locking bolt (not shown in the figure) is threaded into the locking through hole 361 and abuts against the outer circumference of the slide rod 32, thereby fixing the slide rod 32 within the base connection hole.

[0036] The support plate 33 can be fixed to the lower end face of the protective pad 34 by bolts. Both the support plate 33 and the protective pad 34 have coaxial through holes corresponding to the four sliding rods 32. The inner diameter of these through holes is larger than the outer diameter of the sliding rods 32. The four sliding rods 32 can slide through their respective through holes, with their upper ends extending above the protective pad 34. To prevent the sliding rods 32 from detaching from the through holes of the protective pad 34, in this embodiment, a limiting plate 37 is detachably and fixedly connected to the sliding rods 32 above the protective pad 34. The outer diameter of the limiting plate 37 is larger than the inner diameter of the through holes of the protective pad 34. Bolts can rotatably pass through the limiting plate 37 and are threaded to the upper end of the sliding rods 32, thereby fixing the limiting plate 37 to the sliding rods 32.

[0037] Furthermore, to improve the stability and smoothness of the sliding of the support plate 33 and the protective pad 34 relative to the slide rod 32, a sliding sleeve 38 is slidably fitted onto the slide rod 32, and the upper end face of the sliding sleeve 38 is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the support plate 33 by bolts. The slide rod 32 and the sliding sleeve 38 can be selected from existing linear bearing structures. The sliding sleeve 38 slides relative to the slide rod 32, thereby allowing the support plate 33 and the protective pad 34 to slide stably on the slide rod 32 through the sliding sleeve 38.

[0038] The elastic buffer assembly 35 can be a spring vertically fixed between the base plate 31 and the support plate 33. In this embodiment, the elastic buffer assembly 35 is an existing hydraulic buffer vertically fixed to the base plate 31, with its cylinder fixed to the base plate 31 and the telescopic rod of the hydraulic buffer abutting the support plate 33. When the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 is placed on the protective pad 34, the impact force drives the support plate 33 to move down and compress the elastic buffer assembly 35, thereby smoothly absorbing the huge kinetic energy and achieving effective buffering.

[0039] With the support and buffer mechanism 3, when the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 is placed on the protective pad 34, the protective pad 34 and the support plate 33 are subjected to force and move downward along the slide bar 32 to compress the hydraulic buffer, thereby realizing the shock absorption and buffering effect when the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 is placed on this production carrier.

[0040] See Figure 3 , 4 As shown, in order to prevent the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 from tilting or overturning when placed on the support and buffer mechanism 3, a limiting plate 4 is horizontally welded to the upper end face of the upper support frame 222 of the upper bracket 22. A limiting through hole 41 is provided in the middle of the limiting plate 4, which allows the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 to pass through and circumferentially limits the high-purity aluminum ingot 1.

[0041] In order to facilitate the handling of high-purity aluminum ingot 1, the inner diameter of the limiting through hole 41 can be larger than the maximum diameter of high-purity aluminum ingot 1. Therefore, it is also necessary to set a limiting component 5 to limit the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 in the circumferential direction.

[0042] Multiple sets of limiting components 5 are provided on the upper end face of the limiting plate 4. In this embodiment, three sets of limiting components 5 are evenly distributed on the limiting plate 4 with the axis of the limiting through hole 41 as the center, that is, the included angle between the three sets of limiting components 5 is 120°.

[0043] See Figure 6 As shown, each set of limiting components 5 includes two limiting blocks 51 fixedly connected to the limiting plate 4, and a limiting rod 52 horizontally fixedly connected to the two limiting blocks 51. The limiting rod 52 is located inside the limiting through hole 41, so that when the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 is placed on the support buffer mechanism 3 and the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 and the support buffer mechanism 3 reach a stable and static state, the outer circumference of the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 abuts against the outer circumference of the limiting rod 52, thereby preventing it from overturning in any direction.

[0044] To facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the limiting rod 52, an arc-shaped limiting groove 511 is provided on the lower end face of the limiting block 51. The limiting rod 52 is inserted into the limiting groove 511. A limiting block through hole 512 is vertically provided on the upper end face of the limiting block 51. The fastening bolt 512 is rotatably inserted into the limiting block through hole 512 and threaded into the limiting plate 4. By tightening the fastening bolt 512, the limiting block 51 presses the limiting rod 52 onto the limiting plate 4, thereby fixing the limiting rod 52.

[0045] See Figure 7 As shown, in order to adjust the distance of the space formed by the three limiting rods 52 to accommodate high-purity aluminum ingots 1 with different outer diameters, in this embodiment, a plurality of adjustment holes 42 matching each limiting block 51 are provided on the upper end face of the limiting plate 4. The three adjustment holes 42 are sequentially provided from the inner side of the limiting plate 4 to the outer side. The two fastening bolts 512 of each group of limiting components 5 can be threaded into the required adjustment hole 42 as needed to adjust the position of the limiting rod 52.

[0046] It should be noted that the parts in contact with the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 must be made of materials capable of withstanding temperatures above 600℃ for extended periods. For example, the limit rod 52 and the protective pad 34 can be made of heat-resistant alloy steel, such as 310S stainless steel, which has good high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance. Of course, to prevent or reduce the heat from the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 from being conducted to the support plate 33 via the protective pad 34, thus preventing thermal deformation of the iron support plate 33, the protective pad 34 can also be made of existing heat-insulating materials. The protective pad 34 is preferably a high-temperature resistant ceramic fiber pad or a high-temperature silicone rubber pad, which combines cushioning and heat insulation functions, effectively protecting the bottom of the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 and reducing heat conduction to the structure below.

[0047] The working principle and process of this embodiment are as follows: Install each component as described above. Figure 3 As shown, the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 is transferred from the purification furnace to above the limiting through hole 41 using the existing internal support fixture. After adjusting its position, the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 slowly descends through the limiting through hole 41 onto the protective pad 34. Then, the internal support fixture detaches from the high-purity aluminum ingot 1, and the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 moves downward under gravity, compressing the elastic buffer component 35. This causes the support plate 33 and the protective pad 34 to slowly move downward to a balanced state, at which point the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 can abut against the limiting rod 52. Cooling of the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 can then be achieved. Since the upper support 22 of the high-purity aluminum production carrier in this embodiment has a hollow structure and there is still a gap between the outer circumference of the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 and the limiting through hole 41, only the protective pad 34 and the limiting rod 52 are in contact with the high-purity aluminum ingot 1, thus enabling the high-purity aluminum ingot 1 to have good ventilation and cooling effects.

[0048] 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.
