Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of device for cooling object, it comprises at least one first and second compartment of one, cooling bath (it comprises the first cooling grooved rail (Kuehlbadbahn) with cooling agent) for holding object, these two compartments can be contained in cooling bath and can travel therein, wherein, the first cooling grooved rail has at first end place for the entrance in compartment relative with first end and the second end that put place has the outlet for it.In addition, the present invention relates to a kind of corresponding method for cooling object.
Background technology
The present invention relates to the cooling of object, especially soft molding (Formkoerper), as it for example occurs as intermediate product when producing electrode.
When producing anode, for example, for aluminium manufacture, the anode of petroleum coke (Petrolkok), recirculation and coal tar asphalt are mixed and be heated to about 140 to 180 ℃.This material is forged and is finally formed so-called green anode (Gruenanode).Therefore in this state, green anode is soft and must transports carefully and cooling especially controllably before it is directed in kiln, to do not emit the risk of green anode damage.
When being configured to the cooling device of anode, pursue in addition following target:
1. the favourable structure of cost
2. the operation of low maintenance
3. less space requirement
4. effectively cooling
If green anode when cooling too rapidly, can form crackle and stress, it affects the quality of anode negatively.And cooling too be slowly complicated and expensive.In cooling procedure slowly, until the resting period of the raising of burning extends, need larger space requirement, especially because hot green anode because its compatibility (Konsistenz) does not allow to be stacked.Because green anode can have the quality of about 1500kg often, it deposits and operates very complicated.
For the cooling known three kinds of methods in principle of green anode, tank is cooling, water sprays cooling and air is cooling.
Middle green anode is immersed in tank tank is cooling.The method has the highest efficiency, because glassware for drinking water has higher thermal capacity and the groove by green anode is cooling, contacts completely with water.At the cooling middle green anode of injection, be conducted through injection tunnel, with water, spray it there.At the cooling middle green anode of air, be conducted through air duct on conveyer belt, it can comprise ventilation blower.
Yet known cooling system has following shortcoming:
1. cooling system has very large space requirement.
2. cooling system is very expensive.
3. green anode can suffer cold shock (Kaelteschock) and damaged in the time of in immersing tank or when spraying.In order to reduce this effect, can be to water temperature adjustment, but this expending of causing again improving because this need to be in cooling procedure larger time of staying of green anode.The cooling water of larger amount is therefore also contaminated in addition.
4. when spraying with water, form steam and condensate, its contaminated environment.This is especially also uncomfortable for worker.
5. spray tunnel aborning and expensive especially in maintenance.
In order to carry the known dish type band of green anode, to roll band and annular conveyer, especially traditional annular conveyer and Power & Free conveyer.In traditional annular conveyer (suspender) for loading and unloading must make respectively conveyer stop, and each form fit ground, compartment is connected with conveyer in Power & Free conveyer (loop pulling conveyer), each compartment can be released and abduct.
These known conveyers have respectively shortcoming, and it is structurally complicated and therefore expensive.
