Definitions
- the invention relates to the production of aluminum by igneous electrolysis.
- the invention relates more particularly to an electrolysis device associated with an electrolytic cell using at least one anode assembly moved vertically during electrolysis, and electrically powered by anode conductors.
- Aluminum metal is produced industrially by igneous electrolysis, namely by electrolysis of alumina in solution in a bath of molten cryolite, called electrolyte bath, according to the well known Hall Houult process.
- the electrolyte bath is contained in tanks, called “electrolysis cells", each tank comprising a steel box having an inner lining generally made from refractory and / or insulating materials.
- An electrolysis cell comprises cathode assemblies located at the bottom of the tank, each cathode assembly comprising a cathode of carbon material. Anodes are partially immersed in the electrolyte bath.
- the anodes are more particularly of the pre-baked anode type with carbonaceous anode blocks precooked, that is to say cooked before introduction into the electrolysis cell.
- the anode blocks are often suspended from an anode support to form with said blocks what is often called the anode assembly.
- the anode assembly is generally movable relative to the box and can move vertically using displacement means to compensate for the consumption of anode blocks during electrolysis and variations in the level of aluminum accumulating on the cathode.
- the electrolytic cell may generally receive a plurality of anode assemblies distributed along a longitudinal direction of the vessel and its vessel, the anode carrier of said anode assemblies extending along a transverse direction of the vessel and its vessel. .
- the assembly formed by an electrolytic cell, its anodes and the electrolyte bath is often called an electrolysis cell.
- An electrolysis installation may comprise a series of several tanks extending along the transverse direction of the tank and its caisson
- the anode assemblies and the cathode assemblies of an electrolytic cell are electrically connected by a network of electrical conductors.
- Cathode conductors are connected to the cathode sets to collect a current electrolysis at the cathode and to lead cathodic outputs through the bottom or sides of the box.
- the cathodic outputs are, for their part, electrically connected, via routing conductors, to anode conductors electrically feeding the anode assemblies of the next vessel. These routing conductors generally extend in a substantially horizontal direction.
- the anode conductors are, in turn, electrically connected to the anode assemblies of the next vessel.
- the electrolysis current is thus conveyed from the cathode of an electrolytic cell to the anode blocks of the following electrolytic cell, via cathode conductors, routing conductors, anode conductors and anodic support of anode assemblies.
- the anode assemblies can be displaced vertically using the displacement means, in order to compensate for the consumption of the anode blocks.
- the anode assemblies can also be moved vertically during anode change maneuvers by other means, such as handling tools. During these vertical displacements of the anode assemblies, the anode blocks are moved through an opening defined by the lining of the chamber of the electrolytic cell. The vertical displacements of the anode assemblies during the anode change maneuvers may be limited by the presence of electrolysis cell equipment arranged above this opening.

- the rigid beam of the superstructure also supports up-down anode mechanisms for vertically moving the anode frame and the anodes attached to said anode frame.
- Such an arrangement of the superstructure, the anode frame and the current surges above the electrolytic cell tends to reduce the available space above the vessel of said vessel, and to limit the vertical displacement of the anodes during anode change maneuvers.

- a flexible conductor is used to bring the electrolysis current to a conductor integral with the anode assembly, the latter conductor being fixed on top of the metal plate to which is suspended the anode block. It follows that, during the anode change maneuvers, the disassembly of the anode assembly seems to require first of all disconnecting the flexible conductor from the anode assembly, and in a second time to separate the anode assembly cylinders. In the same way, the mounting of the anode assembly seems to be done in two steps, by first joining the anode assembly to the cylinders and then connecting the flexible conductor to the anode assembly.
- the disconnection of the flexible conductor may leave the end of this conductor in the passage of the anode block or anode assembly, which may lead to mechanical interactions with said conductor and lead to wear or damage.
