Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of industrial material transportation technology, and more specifically to a material transfer device adapted to forklifts. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production such as zinc smelting, chemical processing, and metallurgy, the transfer of materials (such as intermediate materials and waste residues) is a crucial step in the production process. Traditional transfer methods mainly rely on manual handling or simple trolleys, which have the following problems: manual handling is labor-intensive and slow, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production; handling heavy objects can easily lead to workplace injuries, and there is also a risk of splashing and burns when dumping mixed solid and liquid slags; the bearings and wheels of traditional trolleys are prone to corrosion in acidic and alkaline environments, severely restricting production efficiency. Ordinary forklift forks cannot stably support materials with special shapes, making them prone to slipping or tilting; customized special transfer equipment requires a large investment and is complex to maintain.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a modular transfer device that can be adapted to standard forklifts to improve efficiency, safety and versatility, while reducing modification costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a material transfer device adapted to forklifts in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a material transfer device adapted to a forklift, comprising a material box, a hinge mechanism fixedly connected to the bottom of the material box, a base plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the hinge mechanism, and strip-shaped support feet fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the base plate, with the two strip-shaped support feet located on the front and rear sides of the material box respectively. A locking structure is installed on the right side between the base plate and the material box, a gap one for flipping the material box is provided on the left side between the two strip-shaped support feet, and a gap two for forklift operation is provided on the right side between the two strip-shaped support feet.

[0006] To prevent the material box from shaking during transportation, the locking structure of this utility model preferably includes a limiting rod, a bending rod, and a second locking block that are fixedly arranged in sequence; a mounting block is fixedly connected to the right side of the upper surface of the base plate, and a mounting hole is opened on the right side of the mounting block; the left end of the limiting rod is movably connected to the mounting hole; a first locking block is fixedly connected to the right side of the material box, and the upper surface of the first locking block abuts against the lower surface of the second locking block.

[0007] To facilitate the lifting of the material box by the overhead crane, as a preferred embodiment of this invention, multiple lifting rings are fixedly connected around the top of the material box.

[0008] To facilitate the emptying of materials from the material box, as a preferred embodiment of this invention, the left side wall of the material box is tilted to the left at an angle of ∠c, where ∠c is 20-60°.

[0009] To facilitate tipping over when the material box is tilted, as a preferred embodiment of this invention, the hinge mechanism is located at the center of the bottom of the material box.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by setting up lifting rings and rationally planning the base structure, the docking process with forklifts is greatly simplified, the material transfer time is significantly shortened, and the transfer efficiency is improved; the bottom shaft base of the material box is centered and equipped with a locking structure, which effectively avoids the shaking and tilting of the material box during the transfer process, and ensures the safety of material transportation in all aspects; the transfer process is simplified, and no personnel are required to coordinate the entire process, which greatly improves the transfer efficiency of materials.

[0017] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of the present invention are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0018] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a material transfer device adapted to a forklift, comprising a material box 1, a hinge mechanism 2 fixedly connected to the bottom of the material box 1, a base plate 3 fixedly connected to the bottom of the hinge mechanism 2, and strip support legs 4 fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the base plate 3, the two strip support legs 4 being located on the front and rear sides of the material box 1 respectively, a locking structure 6 being installed on the right side between the base plate 3 and the material box 1, a gap 7 for flipping the material box 1 being provided on the left side between the two strip support legs 4, and a gap 8 for forklift operation being provided on the right side between the two strip support legs 4.

[0020] In this embodiment: the hinge mechanism 2 between the material box 1 and the base plate 3 is used to rotate the material box 1. The base plate 3 and two strip support legs 4 form a base to stably support the entire material box 1. The distance between the two strip support legs 4 is greater than the width of the material box 1, and the gap 2 8 facilitates the flipping of the material box 1. The gap 1 7 on the other side facilitates the movement of the material box 1 by the forklift forks. During transportation, the locking structure 6 locks the material box 1 to prevent it from shaking when the forklift is handling it. After transportation to the destination, the locking structure 6 is opened, and the material box 1 tilts to the left due to gravity. The tilted end flips through the gap 1 7 between the two strip support legs, and the material is dumped after flipping.

[0021] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the locking structure 6 includes a limiting rod 601, a bending rod 602, and a second locking block 603, which are fixedly arranged in sequence; an installation block 5 is fixedly connected to the right side of the upper surface of the base plate 3, and an installation hole 501 is opened on the right side of the installation block 5, and the left end of the limiting rod 601 is movably connected to the installation hole 501; a first locking block 102 is fixedly connected to the right side of the material box 1, and the upper surface of the first locking block 102 abuts against the lower surface of the second locking block 603.

[0022] In this embodiment: When locking the locking structure 6, the material box 1 is kept balanced. The limiting rod 601 is connected to the mounting hole 501. As the locking structure 6 moves to the left, the second locking block 603 contacts the first locking block 102. The second locking block 603 prevents the material box 1 from tipping to the left during movement. At the same time, the mounting block 5 supports the material box 1 to prevent it from tipping to the right, thus achieving the effect of stable transportation of the material box 1. When opening the locking structure 6, the position of the material box 1 is kept fixed. The locking structure 6 is moved parallel to the right, thereby causing the limiting rod 601 to separate from the mounting hole 501. After the material box 1 is released from the limiting position of the locking structure 6, it automatically tilts to the left, thus facilitating the pouring of materials from the left.

[0023] As a technical optimization of this utility model, multiple lifting rings 101 are fixedly connected around the top of the material box 1. The left side wall of the material box 1 is tilted to the left with an inclination angle of ∠c, and the degree of ∠c is 20-60°. The hinge mechanism 2 is located at the center of the bottom of the material box 1.

[0024] In this embodiment: the lifting ring 101 can facilitate the overhead crane to transport the material box 1. The inclined left side wall of the material box 1 can make the material on the left side of the material box 1 more than the material on the right side. Therefore, when the locking structure 6 is opened, the box can be automatically tilted to the left, which makes it easier to pour the material box 1.

[0025] The specific manufacturing process of the material transfer device is as follows: A lifting ring 101 (made of Q235 steel, 50mm in diameter) is welded to the upper edge of the material box 1, facilitating easy vertical material transfer via a crane hook. One side of the material box 1 is designed with an outward-sloping surface (60° inclination angle) to facilitate material sliding out. A shaft base (with bearing seat) is welded to the center of the bottom of the material box 1, hinged to the base plate 3 via a hinge shaft (40mm in diameter, 45# steel). The base consists of two hollow square steel bars (100×50mm cross-section, 5mm wall thickness), i.e., two parallel strip support legs 4, with a spacing 20cm larger than the width of the material box 1 to ensure that forklift forks (standard spacing 55cm) can be inserted. The two strip support legs 4 are connected by the base plate 3 (10mm thick steel plate) to enhance torsional strength. The locking structure 6 is located on the right side of the material box 1, using a pin structure. After the fork is inserted, the locking structure 6 secures the material box, preventing dislocation during transfer.

[0026] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0027] (1) Loading stage (e.g.) Figure 5 (State shown in Figure a): The forklift drives in, the forks are aligned with the gap 7 below the base and inserted, and the material is put into the tilted material box 1 by manual labor or a robotic arm. The mounting block 5 and the locking structure 6 prevent the material box from tilting.

[0028] (2) Transfer stage: The forklift lifts the material box 1 to the transport height. The central long axis of the hinge mechanism 2 and the base form a rotation fulcrum to counteract the shaking of the box caused by road bumps. The base restricts the displacement of the fork teeth to avoid lateral tilting.

[0029] (3) Unloading stage: After the material is transferred to the unloading position, the forklift operator manually pulls out the limit rod 601 of the locking structure 4, and the material box will automatically tilt to the left by gravity, and the material box 1 will... Figure 5 As shown in figure b, the tilted position allows the material to be completely discharged. Finally, the forklift arm moves downwards and, after contacting the ground, the material box partially returns to its original position, the center of gravity shifts to the right side of the axis, and the material box will automatically return to its original position as shown. Figure 5 The initial state of a is shown in Figure a.

Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the embodiments of this utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only for helping to understand the principles of the embodiments of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the embodiments of this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
