Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of auxiliary tools for electrolytic cell production, specifically an auxiliary tool for aligning the lid of a vacuum lifting bag. Background Technology
[0002] In industries such as metallurgy and casting, vacuum ladles, or steel ladles, are crucial equipment for transporting and unloading high-temperature molten metal. Precise alignment of the ladle lid and body is essential for ensuring production safety and process stability. However, current alignment processes generally rely on manual adjustment of the ladle lid, which presents the following significant problems: Safety hazards: Operators need to be in close contact with the high-temperature cover (the surface temperature can reach hundreds of degrees Celsius), which poses a risk of burns; during manual intervention, if the cover suddenly shifts due to mechanical vibration or operational errors, it can easily lead to accidents such as pinching or collisions.
[0003] Efficiency and precision bottlenecks: Manual alignment relies on experience, resulting in poor consistency. Visual errors can easily cause the cap to tilt or misalign, affecting sealing and causing heat loss or metal oxidation. Repeated adjustments prolong the production cycle, especially in continuous operation scenarios, becoming a bottleneck in efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design an auxiliary tool specifically for aligning the lid of a vacuum bag to eliminate manual intervention and improve alignment accuracy and operational safety.
[0005] The announcement number is CN204953885U, and the name is: A tool for straightening an aluminum molten ladle, comprising a collar and a handle, one end of which is fixedly connected to the collar. In the process of transporting the aluminum molten ladle, the operator places the collar onto a specific part of the cast iron suction pipe of the ladle and rotates the ladle by pulling the handle. This allows for rapid adjustment of the ladle's spatial position, reducing the time required to place the ladle on the base to more than half the original time. This significantly improves work efficiency, reduces the labor intensity of operators, and ensures safety and reliability, preventing accidents. This invention has a simple structure, is convenient and quick to use, and is highly practical, improving the efficiency of aluminum molten metal extraction and the transport efficiency of the aluminum molten ladle, thus possessing significant practical value.
[0006] During the transportation of the aluminum vacuum ladle, the aforementioned straightening tool involves the operator attaching a collar to a specific part of the cast iron suction pipe of the aluminum vacuum ladle and rotating and adjusting the ladle by pulling the handle to ensure that the ladle cover is aligned. However, the collar is inconvenient to use during operation, which prolongs the operation time. Utility Model Content

[0008] This utility model discloses an auxiliary tool for aligning the lid of a vacuum lifting bag, comprising a connecting rod, a horizontal bar fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting rod, and two vertical bars fixedly connected to the side wall of the horizontal bar, the vertical bars being symmetrically arranged along the center of the horizontal bar.
[0009] The included angle between the connecting rod and the vertical rod is 150°-170°.
[0010] The connecting rod allows for handheld operation during vacuum bag lifting, facilitating bag lifting. The horizontal bar securely holds the vertical rods, increasing their strength and extending the tool's lifespan. Two vertical rods are included, with an angle of 150°-170° between the connecting rod and the vertical rods. During bag lifting, the vertical rods can be directly engaged with the bag lid's surface, fitting snugly into the lid's mounting brackets. The semi-enclosed structure formed by the horizontal and vertical rods ensures a better fit to the lid and its mounting brackets, providing a secure and stable hold. The lid's position can be adjusted using the mounting brackets as the stress point. This tool quickly and accurately aligns the bag lid with the ladle, assisting in precise alignment during vacuum lifting and quickly securing the lid to the ladle. Due to the length of the connecting rod, operators can maintain a safe distance from the ladle during operation. Through the precise positioning and guidance of the connecting rod, horizontal bar, and vertical bar, the tool quickly guides the lid into place, significantly reducing alignment time. Alignment work that previously required multiple people and considerable time can now be completed by a single person in a short time, effectively improving production efficiency.
[0011] A handle is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod.
[0012] The handle is designed to assist operators in aligning the bag lid during the alignment process. The handle can be used as an auxiliary tool to help operators precisely adjust the position of the bag lid. By operating the handle, the angle and position of the bag lid can be finely adjusted to ensure the seal between the bag lid and the bag body, ensuring the normal operation of the vacuum lifting system, and improving the convenience and safety of operation.
[0013] The handle is arranged parallel to the crossbar.
[0014] The two vertical bars are flush with the edges of both ends of the horizontal bar.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1) The connecting rod can be held by hand during vacuum bag lifting, facilitating bag lifting. The horizontal bar is used to fix the vertical bar, improving its strength and extending the overall tool lifespan. Two vertical bars are provided, with an angle of 150°-170° between the connecting rod and the vertical bars. During bag lifting, the vertical bars can be directly engaged with the bag lid surface. The two vertical bars fit snugly into the fixing brackets on the bag lid surface. The semi-enclosed structure formed by the horizontal bar and the two vertical bars ensures a better fit to the bag lid and its fixing brackets, providing a secure and stable fixation. The position of the bag lid can be adjusted using the fixing brackets on the bag lid surface as the force point. This tool enables rapid and precise alignment of the bag lid with the ladle, assisting in accurate alignment during vacuum lifting and quickly securing the lid to the ladle. Due to the length of the connecting rod, operators can maintain a safe distance from the ladle during operation. Through the precise positioning and guidance of the connecting rod, horizontal bar, and vertical bar, the tool quickly guides the lid into place, significantly reducing alignment time. Alignment work that previously required multiple people and considerable time can now be completed by a single person in a short time, effectively improving production efficiency.
[0016] 2) The handle is designed to assist operators in aligning the bag lid during the alignment process. The handle can be used as an auxiliary tool to help operators accurately adjust the position of the bag lid. By operating the handle, the angle and position of the bag lid can be finely adjusted to ensure the seal between the bag lid and the bag body, ensure the normal operation of the vacuum lifting system, and improve the convenience and safety of operation.
[0017] 3) This auxiliary tool features a more rational structural design, is easier to process, has lower manufacturing costs, and is convenient to operate. It adapts to high-temperature and dusty working environments while meeting the technical requirements of lightweight and corrosion resistance. Operation is safer and more reliable, avoiding the safety risks of manual operation. Alignment accuracy is improved, and operational efficiency is also increased. Currently, this tool is in use with good results, significantly improving alignment accuracy. Manual alignment is easily affected by operator fatigue and distraction, leading to lower alignment accuracy and potentially significant deviations between the bag cap and the vacuum lifting opening, affecting subsequent use. However, with this tool, these problems are eliminated. In traditional manual alignment methods, the operator... Close contact with operating vacuum bag lifting equipment poses safety hazards such as injury from being pinched or burned by equipment parts. This auxiliary tool enables automated or semi-automated alignment operations, allowing operators to control and monitor from a safe distance, avoiding direct contact with dangerous areas, greatly reducing the probability of accidents and ensuring operator safety. Traditional alignment methods usually require multiple operators to work together, increasing labor costs for enterprises. This auxiliary tool can complete the alignment work independently or with only a small number of personnel, reducing labor input and lowering operating costs. At the same time, the simpler and faster operation also reduces the workload of operators and improves job satisfaction.
[0018] 4) During daily use, if parts wear out or malfunction, operators can easily repair and replace them without complicated operations and high maintenance costs. At the same time, regular maintenance is also easier to perform, which can extend the service life of the auxiliary tool and reduce the company's equipment maintenance costs.
