[0001] This invention belongs to the field of carbon product manufacturing technology, and particularly relates to a mobile granular carbon product collection system applied in carbon manufacturing plants. Background Technology
[0002] Carbon graphite, also known as graphite powder, is a mineral powder mainly composed of elemental carbon. It is soft, blackish-gray, and has an oily feel, which can stain paper. Graphite powder possesses strong refractoriness, electrical conductivity, wear resistance, and lubricity, and is widely used in metallurgy, machinery, petroleum, nuclear industry, and national defense. Graphite powder needs to be granulated before use. During the granulation process, improper operation or human error can sometimes cause granular carbon products to fall from the granulator and scatter around the equipment. These fallen granules need to be cleaned up promptly to avoid waste and prevent operators from stepping on them or slipping. Currently, the cleaning and collection are mostly done by the operators, which increases their workload and can lead to resistance and reluctance from operators to clean up properly.

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.
[0037] Please refer to Figures 1-6. This invention provides a technical solution: a mobile granular carbon product collection system applied in a carbon manufacturing plant, comprising a vehicle body 1, a collection box 2 located at the rear end of the vehicle body 1 with an open top, an elastic sealing mechanism above the collection box 2, a side plate 3 on the right side of the vehicle body 1 with a track groove 31, a guide groove 1a on the left side of the vehicle body 1, a drive frame 4 slidably installed in the guide groove 1a, a drive motor 5 connected to the drive frame 4 and mounted on the vehicle body 1, a concave through groove 16 at the front end of the vehicle body 1, and a collection mechanism slidably connected to the drive frame 4 and slidably engaged with the track groove 31 below the concave through groove 16.
[0038] As shown in Figure 1, the elastic sealing mechanism includes a pair of extension plates 21 disposed on the left and right sides of the collection box 2. Each extension plate 21 is slidably mounted with a sealing plate 7, and the sealing plate 7 is connected to a spring 8.
[0039] The elastic sealing mechanism can seal the opening of the collection box 2, and the spring 8 can ensure that the sealing plate 7 automatically and quickly closes after being opened.
[0040] As shown in Figure 2, the trajectory groove 31 consists of a parallelogram groove 311, a first extension groove 312 connected to the lower right end of the parallelogram groove 311, a second extension groove 313 connected to the upper left end of the parallelogram groove 311, and an inclined groove 314 connected to the second extension groove 313 and inclined to the left.
[0041] Initially, the collecting mechanism is located at the right end of the first extension groove 312. After collecting the granular carbon products, the collecting mechanism moves to the left along the first extension groove 312 via the movement of the drive frame 4. Then, it moves upward along the two parallel inclined sides of the parallelogram groove 311 and slides into the second extension groove 313. It then continues to move to the left into the inclined groove 314. At this time, the collecting mechanism is above the collecting box 2 and is in an inclined state, pouring the collected granular carbon products into the collecting box 2. The parallelogram groove 311 ensures that the collecting mechanism remains horizontal during its ascent and is not prone to tilting. The inclined groove 314 allows the collecting mechanism to be just above the collecting box 2 and tilted to the right after moving to the left limit position, making it convenient to pour out the granular carbon products without the need for an additional pouring mechanism. This simplifies the structure of the invention and facilitates maintenance.
[0042] As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the collecting mechanism includes a shovel plate 6 with a sloping front end. A first bending slide rod 61 and a second bending slide rod 62 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the shovel plate 6. The first bending slide rod 61 is slidably installed in the drive frame 4, and the second bending slide rod 62 is slidably installed in the track groove 31. A rotatable baffle mechanism is also provided on the shovel plate 6.
[0043] The front end of the shovel plate 6 is set as an inclined surface to ensure that the granular carbon products can be scooped up smoothly. In order to prevent the granular carbon products from falling off the sides of the shovel plate 6 when moving to the collection box 2 after being scooped up, two rows of protruding plates are set on the sides of the shovel plate 6. After the shovel plate 6 is scooped up, the baffle mechanism will rotate to the front end of the shovel plate 6 to prevent the granular carbon products from falling off. When tilting, in order to make it easier for the granular carbon products to fall off the shovel plate 6, a vibration motor 15 is set at the bottom of the shovel plate 6.
[0044] The front end of each sealing plate 7 is provided with a right-angled abutment plate 71 with its hypotenuse facing inward. The hypotenuse of the right-angled abutment plate 71 forms a V-shaped groove. When the shovel plate 6 moves to the left along the second extension groove 313, the rear end of the shovel plate 6 is provided with an isosceles triangular abutment plate 10 that matches the right-angled abutment plate 71. The isosceles triangular abutment plate 10 will abut against the V-shaped groove and squeeze the sealing plate 7 to both sides, making it convenient for the shovel plate 6 to pour granular carbon products. In order for the isosceles triangular abutment plate 10 to push open the right-angled abutment plate 71 without interfering with the first bending slide bar 61, the second bending slide bar 62 and the baffle mechanism provided on both sides of the shovel plate 6, the thickness of the isosceles triangular abutment plate 10 is greater than the thickness of the right-angled abutment plate 71.
[0045] The drive frame 4 has a sliding groove 41 and a dovetail groove 42 on its left and right end faces respectively. A swing rod 9 connected to the drive motor 5 is slidably installed in the sliding groove 41, and the first bent sliding rod 61 is slidably installed in the dovetail groove 42.
[0046] Two second-bending slide rods 62 are provided. The distance between the two second-bending slide rods 62 is equal to the distance between the two hypotenuses of the parallelogram groove 311. This ensures that when the shovel plate 6 slides upward along the parallelogram groove 311, the second-bending slide rods 62 can slide exactly within the two rows of parallel hypotenuses of the parallelogram groove 311, so that the shovel plate 6 can remain horizontal when rising and does not tilt.
[0047] The baffle mechanism includes a rotating shaft 11 disposed on both sides of the shovel plate 6. Both ends of the rotating shaft 11 are connected to connecting rods 13. The ends of the connecting rods 13 are connected to baffles 14. The rotating shaft 11 is connected to a rotary motor 12.
[0048] The baffle mechanism ensures that after the shovel plate 6 scoops up the granular carbon product, it rotates clockwise to block the granular carbon product and prevent it from falling. It resets when tilting, so as not to hinder the tilting of the granular carbon product and increase its working efficiency.
[0049] Working principle and usage process of this invention:
[0050] This invention can be driven remotely or manually by a handle at the rear of the vehicle. When granular carbon products fall onto the floor of the carbon manufacturing plant, the opening of the shovel plate 6 is aligned with the granular carbon products, the trolley moves forward to scoop up the granular carbon products, the rotary motor 12 rotates clockwise, the baffle 14 blocks the granular carbon products, the drive motor 5 rotates clockwise, and the drive frame 4 slides backward along the guide slide groove 1a via the swing rod 9. The drive frame 4, through the first bent slide rod 61 slidably installed within it, drives the shovel plate 6 to move backward along the track groove 31 using the two second bent slide rods 62 on its right side. First, it moves to the left along the first extension groove 312, and after moving to the left end of the first extension groove 312... Then, it moves upward along the two parallel hypotenuses of the parallelogram groove 311 into the second extension groove 313, and then continues to move to the left. When moving along the second extension groove 313, the isosceles triangular abutment 10 at the rear end of the shovel plate 6 will abut against the right angle abutment 71 and squeeze it to both sides, thereby opening the sealing plate 7. After the shovel plate 6 moves to the left limit position of the second extension groove 313, the left one of the two second bending slide rods 62 will enter the inclined groove 314, causing the shovel plate 6 to rotate clockwise. The rotary motor 12 resets the baffle 14, and then the vibration motor 15 pours the granular carbon products in the shovel plate 6 into the collection box 2. Then, the drive motor 5 reverses the direction, so that the shovel plate 6 returns to the initial position.
[0051] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
