Abstract: The present invention relates to a process of forming copper anodes (6) in a casting wheel (I) from the stage in which the copper is in liquid molten state (5) in a dumping chute (3) and is transferred to a ladle (4) until the anode (6) of solid copper is transformed into an anode (6) and is discharged from a mold (2) located in said casting wheel (I) wherein said process prevents the liquid molten copper (5) from being adhered to the edge of the ladle (4) and in the interstice (14) generated between the surfaces of the ejector rod (13) and the passing through bore (12) located on the mold (2) comprising the stages of: pouring the molten liquid copper from a distributing dumping chute (3) towards a ladle (4); (b) connecting the metallic components of the ladle (4) to the ground in order to produce positive charge (17); (c) spraying towards the edge (lip) of the ladle (4) an air jet (19) with dry dusting release agent (20) which is expelled by a nozzle (21) charging the particles of said dry dusting (20) with high voltage and negative charge the particles of said dry dusting release agent (20) with high voltage and negative charge (18); (f) pouring the molten liquid copper (5) from the ladle (4) towards the cavity (II) of a mold (2) of anodes; (g) waiting until the copper gets cold in order to form the anode (6) by means of the turn of the casting wheel (I); (h) driving the ejector rod (13) to expel the anode (6) from the cavity (II) of the mold (2); and (i) removing the anode (6) from the mold (2) by means of cranes. The nozzle (21) is moved over the ladle zone (4) and mold zone (2) by means of a robotic arm (22) which is mounted on a cart (24) suspended above the casting wheel (I).(18); (b) connecting the metallic components of the mold (2) to the ground in order to produce a positive charge (17); (e) spraying towards the cavity (II) of the mold (2) and towards the location zone of the ejector rod (13) dry dusting release agent (20) through an air jet (19) which passes through a nozzle (21) which charges the particles of said dry dusting release agent (20) with high voltage and negative charge (18); (f) pouring the molten liquid copper (5) from the ladle (4) towards the cavity (II) of a mold (2) of anodes; (g) waiting until the copper gets cold in order to form the anode (6) by means of the turn of the casting wheel (I); (h) driving the ejector rod (13) to expel the anode (6) from the cavity (II) of the mold (2); and (i) removing the anode (6) from the mold (2) by means of cranes. The nozzle (21) is moved over the ladle zone (4) and mold zone (2) by means of a robotic arm (22) which is mounted on a cart (24) suspended above the casting wheel (I).

Abstract: A hanging bar for supporting an anode (10) without lugs which is formed by a first lower portion of the body (11) and a second upper hanging portion (12) which comprises: two elongated splints (15) having a width similar to said second upper hanging portion (12); two plastic spacer pieces (33) connecting the ends of said two splints (15) being each one of said two plastic spacer pieces (33) formed by a base (28) from which two pillars (20) emerge, leaving between both pillars (20) a central housing zone (34), wherein on said base (28) and between said pillars (20) there is a planar surface (31) and on the inner portion of said base (28) there is an inclined surface (30), two pivoting supports (17), being each one of them housed in the central housing (34) of said two plastic spacer pieces (33), wherein said pivoting supports (17) are formed by a straight piece (43) which finishes in one of its ends in a bushing (27) in the center of which has a first hole (39) which matches second holes (38) of said pillars (20) and third holes (40) of said elongated splints (15) in such a way that within the holes (38, 39, 40) a short axis (21) is housed wherein said pivoting supports (17) pivot; and a pair of pivoting lugs (16) which are supported by said pivoting supports (17) being each pivoting lug (16) formed by a first elongated portion (36) and a second short portion (37) integrally connected to each other at 90° providing an L shape wherein said first portion (36) has first toothed notches (26) and wherein said second short portion (37) has second toothed notches (25).
