[0044] Combined with Figures 1 to 7 As shown in the figure, in the embodiment, the lifting mechanism 1 comprises a frame body 101 arranged in the shell, the frame body 101 is provided with oppositely arranged guide rails 102, the guide rails 102 have a vertical section, a horizontal section and an arc section connecting the vertical section and the horizontal section, the storage tank 3 is lifted along the vertical section, the horizontal section and the arc section in sequence, so that the storage tank 3 can be lifted from a low place to a horizontal state, thereby the material in the storage tank 3 can be poured.

[0046] Wherein, while setting the guide rail 102, an auxiliary guide rail 109 that is trajectory-fitted with the guide rail 102 can be set on the frame 101 relative to the guide rail 102, a pulley is set in the auxiliary guide rail 109, and the carrying wheel 106 and the pulley are used to jointly carry the storage tank 3, so that the lifting of the storage tank 3 is more stable. Understandably, the auxiliary guide rail 109 can be set at a distance from the guide rail 102 according to the size of the storage tank 3 or the size of the device supporting the storage tank 3 when being set, so that the carrying wheel 106 and the pulley can provide more uniform support force to the storage tank 3.

[0047] Before the storage tank 3 is poured, for example, after the storage tank 3 is placed on the lifting mechanism 1 or when the storage tank 3 is lifted to any position in the vertical section of the guide rail 102, the heavy cover plate of the storage tank 3 needs to be removed in order to smoothly carry out the pouring operation. In the embodiment, the cover opening mechanism 2 is combined with the lifting mechanism 1 to remove the cover plate of the storage tank 3. Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown in the drawings, the cover opening mechanism 2 includes a lifting motor 201 arranged at the top of the housing, the lifting motor 201 drives a first support shaft 203 to lift, for example, a rope can be wound around the output end of the lifting motor 201, the first support shaft 203 is arranged at the other end of the rope, a lifting lug 202 is arranged on the first support shaft 203 for the lifting motor 201 to drive, two support rods 204 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first support shaft 203, two clamping rods 206 are vertically arranged opposite to the two support rods 204, a second support shaft 207 is vertically arranged opposite to the first support shaft 203, wherein the two support rods 204 are respectively hinged to the first support shaft 203 through connecting rods, the two clamping rods 206 are hinged to the support rods 204 through connecting pieces 209, the connecting pieces 209 are rotatably installed on the second support shaft 207, that is, the second support shaft 207 penetrates the connecting pieces 209, and the two clamping rods 206 and the two support rods 204 are arranged in a scissor type after being hinged through the connecting pieces 209, a pneumatic cylinder 208 is arranged on the two support rods 204, the cylinder body of the pneumatic cylinder 208 is arranged on one support rod 204, and the extension end of the pneumatic cylinder 208 is connected to the other support rod, when the pneumatic cylinder 208 acts, the two support rods 204 can be driven to approach or move away, and in the process of the two support rods 204 approaching or moving away, the two clamping rods 206 can clamp or release the cover plate of the storage tank 3.

[0048] When clamping the cover plate of the storage tank 3, in order to make the clamping more stable and more effective, vertical extension clamping plates 205 are respectively arranged on the opposite sides of the two clamping rods 206, a high platform 108 is arranged on the frame 101, and a ladder 107 leading to the high platform 108 is arranged, so as to facilitate the maintenance of the clamping mechanism.

[0049] The two clamping levers capable of clamping each other are arranged to clamp the cover of the storage tank, and the cover of the storage tank is lifted by the lifting motor, so that compared with the existing manual or ordinary lifting for opening the cover of the storage tank, the operation is convenient, the clamping effect is good, the cover opening and lifting operations can be smoothly connected, and the material pouring operation efficiency is improved.

[0050] In the embodiment, the combination of the lifting mechanism and the material receiving mechanism is shown in the drawings. Figures 10 to 12 As shown in the drawings, the discharging mechanism includes a support frame 401 arranged in the housing, and a discharging hopper 402 arranged in the support frame 401. The discharging hopper 402 is generally in the shape of a cone, and is provided with a discharge pipe 405 at the bottom. The discharge pipe 405 is provided with a sleeve valve 406 to control the discharging operation of the discharge pipe 405. The discharging hopper 402 is arranged between the lifting mechanism 1 and the material receiving mechanism 5, and can receive the material poured out of the storage tank 3 and send the material from the discharge pipe 405 to the material receiving mechanism 5.

[0051] As described above, in the process of producing rare earth permanent neodymium iron boron alloy material in the vacuum rapid condensing furnace, the rare earth permanent neodymium iron boron alloy material falls in the form of thin sheets and is finally crushed. In the process of the rare earth permanent neodymium iron boron alloy material entering the discharge pipe 405 from the discharging hopper 402, the crushed rare earth permanent neodymium iron boron alloy material is easy to accumulate at the inlet of the discharge pipe 405 in the discharging hopper 402, and the accumulation process is easy to cause blockage. In the embodiment, a blocking prevention ball 404 is arranged in the discharging hopper 402. The blocking prevention ball 404 is located above the discharge pipe 405 and directly above the pipe opening of the discharge pipe 405 in the discharging hopper 402. A driving motor 403 is connected to the blocking prevention ball 404, that is, the output shaft of the driving motor 403 penetrates the discharging hopper 402. The blocking prevention ball 404 is fixed on the output shaft. When the driving motor 403 works, the blocking prevention ball 404 can rotate in the discharging hopper 402. The blocking prevention ball 404 forms a shielding above the discharge pipe 405, so that the material falls into the discharge pipe 405 along the gap between the blocking prevention ball 404 and the discharging hopper 402, avoiding the direct accumulation of the material at the pipe opening of the discharge pipe 405 to cause blockage. In addition, the rotating blocking prevention ball 404 can also disturb the material at the pipe opening, reducing the accumulation and blockage of the material at the discharge pipe 405 during the falling process.

[0052] When the blocking prevention ball 404 is arranged, the diameter of the blocking prevention ball 404 is preferably greater than the inner diameter of the discharge pipe 405. Understandably, the diameter of the blocking prevention ball 404 should be matched with the discharging hopper 402, that is, a certain discharging gap should be reserved between the blocking prevention ball 404 and the inner wall of the discharging hopper 402. The outer surface of the blocking prevention ball 404 can also be uniformly provided with protrusions 407 to further increase the disturbance of the material above the discharge pipe 405 and improve the fluffy space of the material above the discharge pipe 405.

[0053] The rare earth permanent magnet neodymium iron boron alloy material produced by the vacuum rapid condensing furnace is guided and discharged by using the lower hopper, so that the rare earth permanent magnet neodymium iron boron alloy material can enter the storage barrel better, and the rotating anti-blocking ball arranged above the discharge pipe in the discharging mechanism can effectively avoid the phenomenon that the rare earth permanent magnet neodymium iron boron alloy material is blocked at the discharge pipe due to accumulation.

[0054] After the lifting mechanism 1 pours out the storage tank 3, the material enters the lower hopper 402, in order to facilitate the storage barrel 501 to collect the material discharged from the lower hopper 402, in combination with Figures 13 to 16 As shown in the figure, in the embodiment, the receiving mechanism 5 includes a base 507 arranged below the lower hopper 402 in the discharging mechanism 4, and the base 507 is provided with a first conveying roller 503 capable of moving vertically to the conveying direction of the first conveying roller 503, and the receiving mechanism 5 further includes a tray 502 conveyed by the first conveying roller 503, and the tray 502 is provided with a storage barrel 501, and the storage barrel 501 is used to receive the material poured out by the storage tank 3 and guided by the lower hopper 402.

[0055] In the vacuum rapid condensing furnace production, the specification of the storage tank 3 is generally 550-1000kg, and generally, 3-4 storage barrels 501 are needed for receiving and collecting the material poured out by one storage tank 3, and the tray 502 can be arranged in the specification of four storage barrels 501, and the four storage barrels 501 are arranged in square shape on the tray 502, and the first conveying roller 503 can move vertically to the conveying direction of the first conveying roller 503, so that the tray 502 can move in XY two degrees of freedom at the bottom of the lower hopper 402, and in the moving process, the four storage barrels 501 can be arranged to face the pipe orifice of the discharge pipe 405 respectively, and when collecting the material, the four storage barrels 501 can be quickly switched, specifically, when the first conveying roller 503 is arranged, the base 507 is arranged below the lower hopper 402, the linear slide rail 508 is arranged vertically to the conveying direction of the first conveying roller 503 on the base 507, and the first conveying roller 503 is slidably arranged on the linear slide rail 508, the double-shaft air cylinder 509 is arranged on the base 507, and the movable end of the double-shaft air cylinder 509 is connected with the first conveying roller 503, and in the action process of the double-shaft air cylinder 509, the first conveying roller 503 can be pushed to move along the linear slide rail 508.

[0056] The second cylinder 510 is vertically installed, and the movable end of the second cylinder 510 can be vertically extended to be arranged on the first conveying roller 503. Specifically, the second cylinder 510 can be arranged on the frame of the first conveying roller 503 through a connecting plate, so that the second cylinder 510 is relatively fixed with the first conveying roller 503. Understandably, the movable end of the second cylinder 510 can be extended from the gap between the adjacent rollers in the first conveying roller 503 to vibrate the tray 502 upward. After the tray 502 is vibrated by the second cylinder 510, the material in the storage barrel 501 is more compact under vibration, thereby improving the loading density in the barrel, saving transportation and land occupation costs, and the like. Understandably, the second cylinder 510 can be uniformly distributed in the base 507. For example, in the embodiment, six second cylinders 510 are arranged in the base 507.

[0057] After the four storage barrels 501 collect the materials poured by the storage tank 3, the first conveying roller 503 is started to convey the tray 502 as a whole, so that the storage barrel 501 moves out of the bottom of the discharging mechanism 4. In order to facilitate accurate and rapid weighing of the storage barrel 501 collecting the material, a second conveying roller 504 and a third conveying roller 506 are arranged in sequence in the conveying direction of the first conveying roller 503. The second conveying roller 504 is arranged on the weighing unit 504, and the weighing unit 504 can be a weighbridge. The tray 502 is conveyed after collecting the material along the first conveying roller 503, the second conveying roller 504 and the third conveying roller 506. Understandably, when the tray 502 carries the empty storage barrel 501 into the bottom of the discharging mechanism 4, the tray 502 can move along the third conveying roller 506, the second conveying roller 504 and the first conveying roller 503.

[0058] The tray on which the storage barrels are placed is arranged to have two degrees of freedom in X and Y directions. When a plurality of storage barrels are placed, the position of each storage barrel can be adjusted, so that the storage barrel can be aligned with the discharge pipe of the discharging mechanism to perform efficient discharging operation. The weighing unit is arranged on the conveying line, so that the weighing operation can be quickly performed when the storage barrel is conveyed after loading, and efficient connection of each operation link in the entire device is realized.

[0059] As described above, during the lifting process of the lifting mechanism 1 on the storage tank 3, the storage tank 3 can be directly fixed with the bearing wheel 106 and the pulley by using the fixing part. In order to make the lifting process more stable and further improve the operation safety and convenience, the tank loading frame 6 for bearing the storage tank 3 is used in the embodiment. The storage tank 3 is placed on the tank loading frame 6, the tank loading frame 6 is lifted by the lifting mechanism 1 to lift the storage tank 3 to a high place, and the lifting mechanism 1 is combined with the discharging mechanism 4 to realize the lifting and discharging of the storage tank 3.
