[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0018] like Figure 1As shown, a crucible transfer device includes a transfer trolley 1 for transferring crucibles, and a movable track 2 is provided corresponding to the transfer trolley 1. The movable track 2 is laid between the melting furnace and the die-casting machine. The transfer trolley 1 is rotatably connected to a traveling wheel 11, and the traveling wheel 11 is rollingly connected to the movable track 2. When in use, the transfer trolley 1 moves along the movable track 2 to the melting furnace, and a fully loaded crucible filled with molten aluminum is placed on the transfer trolley 1, which is then transferred to the die-casting machine by the transfer trolley 1 to complete the transfer and delivery of the molten aluminum. At the same time, the empty crucible with a lower liquid level in the die-casting machine is placed on the transfer trolley 1, which is recovered and transferred by the transfer trolley 1 to the melting furnace for refilling with molten aluminum. This embodiment realizes the fixed-point and fixed-route crucible transfer operation by providing a dedicated transfer trolley 1 and movable track 2, ensuring the smooth and reliable transfer process, and avoiding the problems of low operating efficiency and high safety risks caused by forklift transfer of crucibles.

[0019] As a preferred embodiment, the transfer cart 1 is provided with a power unit 12 corresponding to the travel wheels 11. The power unit 12 is connected to the travel wheels 11 to provide power for the travel wheels 11 to rotate and drive the transfer cart 1 to move. Furthermore, the transfer cart 1 is provided with a control room 13 for operating the transfer cart 1, which facilitates the operator to control the transfer cart 1 in real time and can follow the transfer cart 1 to ensure precise control and avoid walking to follow the transfer cart 1, saving physical effort.

[0020] In a further embodiment, the transfer cart 1 is provided with a movable guide groove 14 for lateral movement of the crucible. A support plate 3 for supporting the crucible is provided at the bottom of the crucible. The support plate 3 is rotatably connected to a movable roller 31, which is in rolling contact with the movable guide groove 14. The support plate 3 can be laterally moved through the movable guide groove 14 to facilitate loading and unloading of the crucible. During operation, a fully loaded crucible is laterally moved from the melting furnace via the movable guide groove 14 onto the transfer cart 1. The transfer cart 1 then transports the fully loaded crucible to the die-casting machine, where it is laterally dismounted via the movable guide groove 14, completing the crucible transfer operation.

[0021] Furthermore, the transfer trolley 1 is provided with a push-pull slider 4 for the crucible to provide power for the crucible to move laterally on the transfer trolley 1. The transfer trolley is provided with a transverse chute 41, and the push-pull slider 4 is slidably connected to the transverse chute 41. The push-pull slider 4 moves horizontally in the transverse chute 41, and the crucible can be driven to complete the movement of the upper and lower transfer trolleys 1. In this embodiment, the transfer trolley 1 is provided with a transverse force corresponding to the push-pull slider 4 to realize the automatic push-pull action of the push-pull slider 4. The transverse force can use the gear, rack matching mechanism or sprocket, chain mechanism in the prior art to drive the push-pull slider 4 to move horizontally in the transverse chute 41, which will not be described in detail here.

[0022] Furthermore, the crucible is connected to a clamping block 42 for clamping the push-pull slider 4, and the push-pull slider 4 is hinged with a pull-back hook 43 corresponding to the clamping block 42. The pull-back hook 43 can be buckled on the clamping block 42 to connect and fix the crucible to the push-pull slider 4, so that the push-pull slider 4 can pull the crucible onto the vehicle.

[0023] When in use, the transfer trolley 1 moves to the melting furnace, and the transverse slider moves to the edge of the transfer trolley 1 under the drive of the power device 12, and the flip-back hook 43 is snapped onto the block 42 of the crucible, and the transverse slider pulls the crucible onto the trolley; when getting off the trolley, the flip-back hook 43 is pulled to disengage the block 42, and the transverse slider pushes the crucible to move laterally out to complete the getting off action.

[0024] Furthermore, the transfer trolley 1 is provided with two or more crucible placement positions. When performing the crucible transfer operation, one transfer trolley 1 can simultaneously complete the delivery of full crucibles and the recovery of empty crucibles in one reciprocating movement, further ensuring the operation efficiency.

[0025] The above disclosure is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For ordinary technicians in this field, without departing from the principle of the present invention, any deformation made should be deemed to be protected by the present invention.
