The invention provides a horizontal articulated slag pot carrier. The horizontal articulated slag pot carrier comprises two working mechanisms symmetrically arranged on a rear frame; and the working mechanisms are installed on one sides of the rear frame, and each working mechanism comprises a clamp, a connecting rod, a working big arm and a telescopic rod (64), wherein a U-shaped opening is formed in the clamp, the opening faces towards the direction of a cab and is matched with a trunnion of a slag pot, a pin locking mechanism is arranged on the clamp and is used for locking the slag pot, the bottom of the connecting rod is hinged to the rear frame, the top of the connecting rod is hinged to the outer side of the clamp, the bottom of the working big arm is hinged to the rear frame, the top of the working big arm is hinged to the outer side of the clamp, the working big arm is arranged on the inner side of the connecting rod, the fixed end of the telescopic rod is hinged to the rear frame, and the movable end of the telescopic rod is hinged to the middle part of the working big arm. According to the horizontal articulated slag pot carrier, the problems of long working time, low operation efficiency and the like of an existing slag pot carrier are solved, the safety driving feeling is improved, the whole-vehicle structure is compact, the gravity center is low, and the purposesof high safety, high efficiency, low energy consumption and low cost are achieved.
