The lifting wheel groove 210b is disposed on the main frame 100b and extends vertically. The guide wheel groove 220b is disposed on the main frame 100b, and the included angle between the guide wheel groove 220b and the lifting wheel groove 210b is greater than or equal to 90° and less than 180°. The bracket 230b is provided with a first sliding portion 231b for sliding engagement with the guide wheel groove 220b, and a second sliding portion 233b for sliding engagement with the lifting wheel groove 210b. The tipping position is disposed on the bracket 230b.

[0122] When the bracket 230b is in the initial flip position, the first sliding part 231b is above the second sliding part 233b. When the bracket 230b is flipped to the final flip position, the first sliding part 231b is below the second sliding part 233b.

[0123] Combination Figure 5 When the bracket 230b is in the initial flipping position, the first sliding part 231b is located at the first limit position of the guide wheel groove 220b, and the second sliding part 233b is located at the first limit position of the lifting wheel groove 210b. When the bracket 230b flips to the final flipping position, the first sliding part 231b is located at the second limit position of the guide wheel groove 220b, and the second sliding part 233b is located at the second limit position of the lifting wheel groove 210b.

[0124] The first and second limit positions of the guide wheel groove 220b are located at the lowest and highest positions of the guide wheel groove 220b along the vertical direction, respectively, and the first and second limit positions of the lifting wheel groove 210b are located at the lowest and highest positions of the lifting wheel groove 210b along the vertical direction, respectively.

[0125] In the initial flip position, the storage container 01 is placed on the flip position of the bracket 230b with its opening facing upwards. As the bracket 230b gradually moves from the initial flip position to the final flip position, the storage container 01 flips and finally faces downwards, allowing the material to be poured out. Finally, the storage container 01 moves back to the initial flip position along with the bracket 230b, achieving a reset.

[0126] like Figure 5As shown, the lifting wheel groove 210b is formed on a structural beam extending vertically, and the guide wheel groove 220b includes a first guide section and a second guide section. The angle between the first guide section and the lifting wheel groove 210b is greater than 90° and less than 180°. The second guide section is connected to the first guide section, and the angle between the second guide section and the lifting wheel groove 210b is equal to 90°. The second guide section is farther away from the lifting wheel groove 210b than the first guide section. The first guide section is connected to the structural beam on which the lifting wheel groove 210b is provided. The second guide section can maintain and stabilize the bracket 230b when it is flipped to the flipping termination position.

[0127] The highest position of the lifting wheel groove 210b is higher than the highest position of the guide wheel groove 220b, and the lowest position of the lifting wheel groove 210b is lower than the lowest position of the guide wheel groove 220b, so that the bracket 230b can rotate along with the lifting wheel groove 210b and the guide wheel groove 220b.

[0128] Furthermore, stop structures can be provided at both ends of the lifting wheel groove 210b and the guide wheel groove 220b to limit the sliding of the first sliding part 231b and the second sliding part 233b, and prevent the bracket 230b from disengaging from the lifting wheel groove 210b and the guide wheel groove 220b.

[0129] The main frame 100b provides an installation foundation for the tilting mechanism 200b and other structures. The main frame 100b includes a steel frame structure 110b for welding and fixing to the ground. Figure 5 The guide wheel groove 220b extends between the two steel frame structures 110b. The lifting wheel groove 210b can be a structural groove formed on the adjacent surfaces of the steel frame structures 110b, and the guide wheel groove 220b can be a structural groove formed on the structural beam, which is connected to the steel frame structure 110b.

[0130] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 6 The first sliding part 231b is a roller rotatably connected to the bracket 230b, and the second sliding part 233b is a roller or slider rotatably connected to the bracket 230b via the mounting base 232b. The rotatable connection can avoid interfering with the flipping action of the bracket 230b.

[0131] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 9The flipping mechanism 200b disclosed in this embodiment of the invention is driven by a flipping power device 300b, which includes a roller 310b, a traction rope, and a flipping power motor 320b. The roller 310b is rotatably mounted on the main frame 100b. One end of the traction rope is wound around the roller 310b, and the other end is connected to the second sliding portion 233b of the bracket 230b. The flipping power motor 320b is mounted on the main frame 100b and is drively connected to the roller 310b. The flipping power motor 320b drives the roller 310b to rotate, thereby winding the traction rope to pull the bracket 230b to slide along the lifting wheel groove 210b and the guide wheel groove 220b, thus achieving the flipping and resetting of the storage container 01.

[0132] To facilitate the winding of the traction rope, the main frame 100b is equipped with a guide wheel 331b and a fixed wheel 330b. The guide wheel 331b and the fixed wheel 330b are respectively located at the top and bottom of the main frame 100b to guide the winding position of the traction rope and avoid interfering with the flipping action of the flipping mechanism 200b. Figure 9 As shown, there are two rollers 310b and two corresponding traction ropes, which are respectively connected to both sides of the bracket 230b and respectively connected to the second sliding part 233b located on the same side of the bracket 230b to ensure the stability of the movement of the bracket 230b.

[0133] The traction rope can be a steel wire rope. For example... Figure 9 As shown, a tensioning mechanism 340b can also be installed on the main frame 100b to tension the traction rope.

[0134] Those skilled in the art will understand that the flipping action of the bracket 230b can also be driven by a drive motor. For example, the drive motor can push the second end of the bracket 230b to move up and down in the lifting wheel groove 210b, and the first end of the bracket 230b can follow in the guide wheel groove 220b, which can also realize the flipping action of the bracket 230b.

[0135] Furthermore, to ensure that all the material in the storage container 01 can be poured out, the bracket 230b is equipped with a vibration mechanism 240b for driving the storage container 01 to vibrate. The vibration mechanism 240b can be a vibration motor and is bolted to the main frame 100b.

[0136] Since the bracket 230b needs to move between the initial flipping position and the final flipping position to perform the flipping operation, a bottom guard 250b is provided at the second end of the bracket 230b to prevent collision between the bracket 230b and the main frame 100b when the bracket 230b returns to the initial flipping position. The bottom guard 250b can reduce wear between the bracket 230b and the main frame 100b. The bottom guard 250b can be welded to the bracket 230b.

[0137] In one specific embodiment, a support leg 234b is fixedly installed on the bracket 230b. The support leg 234b is arranged perpendicular to the bracket 230b and is located at the second end of the bracket 230b. The storage container 01 can be supported by the support leg 234b to form the aforementioned flip position. At the initial flip position of the bracket 230b, the bracket 230b extends vertically, and the storage container 01 is placed on the support leg 234b with its opening facing upward. When the bracket 230b moves to the flip end position, the bracket 230b and the support leg 234b drive the storage container 01 to move to the flip end position. At this time, the second end of the bracket 230b is located above the first end, and the opening of the storage container 01 faces a horizontally downward direction (i.e., the ground direction). The material in the storage container 01 can be automatically poured out along the guide channel of the protective cover 410b under the action of gravity.

[0138] When the bracket 230b is in the initial flipping position, the storage container 01 in the flipping position can be opened by the opening tool 10a so that the material can be poured out directly after the storage container 01 is flipped. In order to prevent the material in the open storage container 01 from flowing out during the flipping process, the flipping device 10b disclosed in this embodiment of the invention also includes a flow guiding device 400b.

[0139] Combination Figure 5 The flow guiding device 400b includes a cover mounting base 440b, a protective cover 410b, a gate mechanism 420b, and a lifting mechanism 430b. The cover mounting base 440b is mounted on the tilting mechanism 200b and can tilt with the bracket 230b. The protective cover 410b is provided with a flow guiding channel to guide the flow direction of materials, facilitating connection with downstream equipment. The gate mechanism 420b is located at the inlet end of the flow guiding channel and controls the connection between the storage container 01 and the flow guiding channel, preventing material from flowing out of the storage container 01 during tilting.

[0140] The lifting mechanism 430b is mounted on the cover mounting base 440b and is used to move the gate mechanism 420b and the protective cover 410b to the opening of the storage container 01, in conjunction with... Figure 7 When the bracket 230b is in the initial tilting position, the control gate mechanism 420b and the protective cover 410b descend to the opening of the storage container 01, which limits the storage container 01, preventing it from detaching from the bracket 230b during the tilting process and temporarily sealing the storage container 01. When the storage container 01 moves with the bracket 230b to the tilting termination position, the control gate mechanism 420b opens, connecting the storage container 01 to the guide channel, allowing material to flow to downstream equipment through the guide channel.

[0141] Combination Figure 7The lifting mechanism 430b is a lifting electric cylinder. The fixed end of the lifting electric cylinder is set on the cover mounting base 440b. The gate mechanism 420b and the protective cover 410b are both connected to the moving end of the lifting electric cylinder.

[0142] Both the gate mechanism 420b and the protective cover 410b can be bolted to the lifting cylinder. The lifting mechanism 430b can also be in various structural forms such as gear rack, drive shaft, and drive rod, as long as the gate mechanism 420b and the protective cover 410b can be moved to the opening of the storage container 01.

[0143] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the gate mechanism 420b includes a cover plate drive rack 422b and a protective cover plate 421b. The cover plate drive rack 422b is disposed on the protective cover 410b, and the protective cover plate 421b is in drive engagement with the cover plate drive rack 422b. In the first position where the protective cover plate 421b moves, the storage container 01 is isolated from the flow channel; in the second position where the protective cover plate 421b moves, the storage container 01 is connected to the flow channel.

[0144] The lifting mechanism 430b drives the protective cover plate 421b to seal the opening of the storage container 01, which can prevent the material from spilling during the flipping process. When the bracket 230b moves to the flipping end position, the translational movement between the cover plate transmission rack 422b and the protective cover plate 421b can connect the storage container 01 with the guide channel, so that the material in the storage container 01 can be guided by the guide channel to the downstream equipment.

[0145] To facilitate the movement of the storage container 01 to the flipping position, the flipping device 10b disclosed in this embodiment of the invention further includes a feeding device 500b, such as... Figure 8 As shown, the feeding device 500b includes a slide rail 510b, a moving platform 520b, and a moving mechanism 530b. The slide rail 510b is mounted on the main frame 100b, and the moving platform 520b slides in conjunction with the slide rail 510b. The moving mechanism 530b is mounted on the main frame 100b, and its output end is connected to the moving platform 520b. The moving mechanism 530b can push the moving platform 520b to move between the feeding position and the tilting position, thereby driving the storage container 01 to move between the feeding position and the tilting position to achieve feeding.

[0146] The loading station is used to connect with the transfer equipment, and the opening operation can also be carried out at the loading station.

[0147] The moving mechanism 530b can be a moving electric cylinder, which is bolted to the main frame 100b to drive the storage container 01 to the flip position precisely. The slide rail 510b can be set on the main frame 100b or directly welded to the ground embedded parts.

[0148] Furthermore, the feeding device 500b also includes a clamping mechanism 540b, which is mounted on the moving platform 520b. The feeding device 500b can automatically center, clamp, and position the storage container 01.

[0149] The clamping mechanism 540b can be two electric cylinders mounted on the moving platform 520b. Each of the two electric cylinders corresponds to a limit baffle, which is mounted on the moving platform 520b. The two electric cylinders are arranged in two mutually perpendicular directions and bolted to the moving platform 520b to clamp the storage container 01 onto the limit baffle.

[0150] To facilitate the movement of storage container 01 from the moving platform 520b to the tilting position of the tilting mechanism 200b, the moving platform 520b is provided with a clearance slot. When the moving platform 520b moves storage container 01 to the tilting position, the supporting legs 234b of the bracket 230b are located at the lower part of the clearance slot. Subsequently, the bracket 230b rises and supports storage container 01, with the supporting legs 234b assisting in supporting and protecting storage container 01. As the bracket 230b tilts (the second end of the bracket 230b lifts), storage container 01 is moved by the bracket 230b and detaches from the moving platform 520b. After the storage container 01 has finished emptying the material, storage container 01 returns to the initial tilting position with the bracket 230b. The bracket 230b descends to the clearance slot of the moving platform 520b, and storage container 01 can be carried away by the moving platform 520b.

[0151] The mobile platform 520b includes a first slide 521b and a second slide 522b. The first slide 521b slides in slidable engagement with the slide rail 510b, and a clearance slot is provided on the first slide 521b. The second slide 522b is disposed on the first slide 521b and also has a clearance slot. A floating device is disposed on the second slide, and the floating device rolls in engagement with the second slide. The storage container 01 is placed on the floating device. With the clamping action of the clamping mechanism 540b, the storage container 01 moves the floating device and is clamped. When the storage container 01 is placed on the floating device and clamped, the two ends of the bottom of the storage container 01 are aligned with the clearance slot, so that when the mobile platform 520b moves the storage container 01 to the flip position, the two ends of the bottom of the storage container 01 can be supported by two supporting legs 234b, and flipped with the bracket 230b under the auxiliary protection of the supporting legs 234b.

[0152] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the feeding device 500b clamps the storage container 01 in a centering manner through the clamping mechanism 540b. After the container cover of the fuel storage container 01 is removed by the opening tool 10a, the moving mechanism 530b moves the moving platform 520b precisely from the feeding position to the flipping position along the slide rail 510b. The lifting mechanism 430b in the flow guiding device 400b drives the gate mechanism 420b and the protective cover 410b to engage with the opening of the fuel storage container 01, thereby achieving limiting and temporary sealing of the storage container 01. Under the action of the tilting power device 300b, the bracket 230b tilts along the lifting wheel groove 210b and the guide wheel groove 220b, and drives the fuel storage container 01 to be lifted and tilted. After the fuel storage container 01 is tilted into place, the protective cover 421b of the gate mechanism 420b is gradually opened, allowing the fuel element in the fuel storage container 01 to enter the downstream equipment through the protective cover 410b. During this period, the short-frequency vibration of the vibration mechanism 240b is used to completely tilt the fuel element in the fuel storage container 01. After the tilting is completed, the gate mechanism 420b is controlled to close, and the tilting mechanism 200b tilts the fuel storage container 01 and lowers it to the initial tilting position. After the moving mechanism 530b moves the fuel storage container 01 to the feeding position, the container cover is fastened to the storage container 01 by the opening tool 10a, realizing the automatic feeding and resetting of the fuel element in the fuel storage container 01.

[0153] When the storage container 01 is a fuel storage container and the material is a spherical fuel element (hereinafter referred to as a spherical element), in order to facilitate accurate feeding, a guide single-row platform 10c is provided downstream of the tilting device 10b.

[0154] Combination Figure 10 The single-row guide platform 10c disclosed in this embodiment of the invention includes a platform component 100c. The platform component 100c is provided with a movable platform 111c and a component flow channel 600c. The movable platform 111c can dock with the guide channel of the flipping device 10b and provides space for multiple spherical components to roll. The cross-sectional area of ​​the component flow channel 600c is larger than the maximum cross-sectional area of ​​the spherical components, but less than twice the maximum cross-sectional area of ​​the spherical components, so that the spherical components can only be arranged in a single row within the component flow channel 600c. The movable platform 111c and the component flow channel 600c are connected, and the movable platform 111c is tilted toward the component flow channel 600c so that the spherical components located on the movable platform 111c automatically roll toward the component flow channel 600c. Along the rolling direction of the spherical components, the component flow channel 600c is tilted downstream so that the spherical components within the component flow channel 600c can automatically roll toward the downstream device.

[0155] Under the influence of gravity, when the spherical components enter the moving platform 111c, they gradually roll into the component flow channel 600c and automatically arrange themselves in a single row. This facilitates the subsequent counting and loading of the spherical components, eliminating the need for manual operation, improving work efficiency, and reducing operating costs.

[0156] like Figure 10 As shown, in a specific embodiment of the present invention, the platform assembly 100c includes a housing 110c and a mounting bracket 120c. The bottom wall of the housing 110c serves as the aforementioned mobile platform 111c. A feed inlet 112c for spherical components is provided at the first end of the housing 110c. To facilitate feeding, the feed inlet 112c can be located on the top wall of the housing 110c, and a sealing cover can be provided at the feed inlet 112c to temporarily close the housing 110c. A mobile platform outlet for spherical components is provided at the second end of the housing 110c. To facilitate discharging, the mobile platform outlet can be located on the bottom wall of the housing 110c, and the mobile platform 111c is inclined towards the second end of the housing 110c. The component flow channel 600c is set on the housing 110c, and the outlet of the moving platform is connected to the component flow channel 600c. When the spherical component enters the component flow channel 600c from the outlet of the moving platform, the spherical component is arranged in a single row.

[0157] By setting the cross-sectional area of ​​the component flow channel 600c, spherical components can be arranged in a single row on the component flow channel 600c.

[0158] Furthermore, when the cross-sectional area of ​​the mobile platform outlet is greater than the maximum cross-sectional area of ​​the spherical element, but less than twice the maximum cross-sectional area of ​​the spherical element, the mobile platform outlet can allow only a single spherical element to pass through at a time, thereby preventing the spherical element from becoming blocked in the element flow channel 600c.

[0159] Combination Figure 11 A slide rail is provided on the top wall of the housing 110c. The closing cover can be driven by a motor to slide along the slide rail, thereby opening and closing the housing 110c. Figure 12 As shown, the housing 110c is mounted on the mounting bracket 120c so that the housing 110c can be stably supported on the ground. Furthermore, fixed feet can be provided on the mounting bracket 120c for easy fixing to the ground.

[0160] To prevent spherical components from remaining inside the housing 110c, in a specific embodiment of the present invention, the housing 110c is provided with a guide assembly 200c for guiding all spherical components located on the moving platform 111c to the component flow channel 600c, in conjunction with... Figure 10The guide assembly 200c includes a limiting baffle 210c and a disturbance plate 220c. The limiting baffle 210c is disposed on the housing 110c and forms a flow gap with the moving platform 111c, allowing only a single layer of spherical elements to pass through. The limiting baffle 210c can limit the stacked spherical elements, ensuring that only one layer of spherical elements rolling into contact with the moving platform 111c passes through the flow gap. The limiting baffle 210c is perpendicular to the rolling direction of the spherical elements and is bolted between the two side walls of the housing 110c.

[0161] The disturbance plate 220c is disposed on the moving platform 111c and is located downstream of the limiting baffle 210c along the rolling direction of the spherical element, so as to form a flow channel that guides the single-layer spherical element to the outlet of the moving platform.

[0162] Specifically, when the mobile platform outlet is located at one corner of the second end of the housing 110c, the disturbance plate 220c can be a single piece, obliquely blocking the other corner of the housing opposite the mobile platform outlet, so that the single-layer spherical element passing through the limiting baffle 210c is guided by the disturbance plate 220c into the mobile platform outlet. At this time, the flow channel is formed by the disturbance plate 220c and the side wall of the housing 110c. When the mobile platform outlet is located in the middle of the second end of the housing 110c, the disturbance plate 220c can be two pieces arranged symmetrically, obliquely blocking the two corners of the second end of the housing 110c, so that the single-layer spherical element passing through the limiting baffle 210c is guided by the disturbance plate 220c into the mobile platform outlet. At this time, the flow channel is formed by the two disturbance plates 220c.

[0163] Furthermore, a driving component is provided on the mobile platform 111c, which is connected to the disturbance plate 220c in a transmission manner. When the loading begins, the driving component drives the disturbance plate 220c to swing, thereby disturbing the spherical element.

[0164] Alternatively, both ends of the disturbance plate 220c can be movably fixed on the moving platform 111c so that it swings when it is hit by the spherical element, thereby disturbing the spherical element, so as to better guide the spherical element to the outlet of the moving platform and reduce the blockage rate of the spherical element at the outlet of the moving platform.

[0165] To prevent the spherical component from colliding with the moving platform 111c when it enters the housing 110c, a buffer pad 114c is provided on the moving platform 111c for cushioning, and the position of the buffer pad 114c corresponds to that of the feed port 112c to prevent damage to the spherical component.

[0166] The spherical element entering the housing 110c contains impurities such as graphite particles and debris. To remove these impurities, the single-row guide platform 10c disclosed in this invention also includes a purging assembly, which comprises an air tank 300c and a jet pipe 310c. The air tank 300c is mounted on the mounting bracket 120c and provides the purging airflow. The jet pipe 310c communicates with the air tank 300c and is positioned upstream of the moving platform 111c along the rolling direction of the spherical element. The outlet of the jet pipe 310c faces downstream of the moving platform 111c, so that the jet pipe 310c blows air from the highest point of the moving platform 111c, blowing particles, debris, and other impurities that fall onto the moving platform 111c towards the moving platform outlet.

[0167] like Figure 10 As shown, a horizontally placed air tank 300c is mounted on a mounting bracket 120c. A jet pipe 310c extends into the housing 110c and is located at the first end of the housing 110c, with multiple exhaust ports at the jet end. To prevent the jet pipe 310c from impacting the spherical element when it enters the housing 110c through the inlet 112c, a pipe baffle is installed on the housing 110c. One end of the pipe baffle is connected to the side wall of the housing 110c, and the other end is inclined towards the outlet of the moving platform, forming an installation angle with the housing 110c. The jet pipe 310c is positioned within this installation angle. When the spherical element enters the housing 110c, the pipe baffle provides some protection to the jet pipe 310c. An air gap is left between the pipe baffle and the moving platform 111c for the jetting airflow to pass through, allowing the jetting airflow to dislodge impurities on the moving platform 111c and improving operational reliability.

[0168] During the single-row arrangement of spherical elements, dust-containing gas is generated. To achieve the filtration and emission of this dust-containing gas, such as... Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, a fan 500c is installed on the housing 110c. An air duct connects the housing 110c and the fan 500c. The fan 500c can draw air into the housing 110c to provide negative pressure for exhaust and remove dust-containing gas from the housing 110c.

[0169] To prevent dust-laden gas from being directly discharged into the air, filters can be installed at the exhaust outlet of the duct or fan 500c to filter dust and prevent it from escaping into the external space. The duct and the housing 110c can be welded together.

[0170] In order to achieve the collection of graphite particles and debris, combined with Figure 12The component flow channel 600c is provided with a drop gap for dust to fall, and a dust collection component 301c for collecting dust is provided below the component flow channel 600c, and the dust collection component 301c is provided on the housing 110c.

[0171] Combination Figure 13 The component flow channel 600c can be formed by connecting multiple parallel guide rods, creating the aforementioned drop gap between adjacent rods, such as... Figure 13 As shown, the component flow channel 600c is located above the housing 110c. A sloped structure for guiding dust is provided in the middle of the housing 110c. Dust falling through the gap can enter the dust collection component 301c via the sloped structure for centralized collection. The dust collection component 301c can be a dust collection bin. One end of the component flow channel 600c is connected to the outlet of the moving platform, and the other end is the discharge port 113c of the guide single-row platform. A conduit can be connected at the discharge port 113c to guide the spherical component to downstream equipment.

[0172] like Figure 10 As shown, a vibration mechanism 130c for agitating the spherical elements is provided at the bottom of the mobile platform 111c. The vibration mechanism 130c can be a vibration motor to drive the mobile platform to vibrate, agitate the single-rowing process of the spherical elements, and prevent the spherical elements from clogging the mobile platform outlet. The vibration mechanism 130c can also gradually move graphite debris and particle groups that may be present on the mobile platform 111c to the mobile platform outlet, and enter the dust collection component 301c through the drop gap.

[0173] To facilitate control of the feeding process of spherical components, the single-row guide platform 10c disclosed in this embodiment of the invention further includes an isolation device 400c and a counting device. Both the isolation device 400c and the counting device are disposed on the platform assembly 100c and along the rolling direction of the spherical components. The counting device is disposed upstream of the isolation device 400c. The counting device is used to detect the number of spherical components passing through the component flow channel 600c, and the isolation device 400c is used to close the component flow channel 600c.

[0174] When a specified number of spherical components have passed through the component flow channel 600c, the control isolation device closes the component flow channel 600c, thus completing precise control of the feeding of the spherical components. By integrating counting and isolation functions, the flow-guiding single-row platform 10c disclosed in this embodiment of the invention saves floor space.

[0175] The counting device can be a proximity sensor installed on the component flow channel 600c. A guide pipe can be connected to the end of the component flow channel 600c to transport the spherical component to a designated position. An isolation device can be installed at the outlet end of the component flow channel 600c.

[0176] In one specific embodiment, the isolation device is a baffle inserted into the component flow channel 600c. The baffle is moved by a driving component mounted on the housing 110c. The baffle has a component through-hole. In a first position, the component through-hole on the baffle is aligned with the component flow channel 600c, allowing spherical components to pass through and enter downstream equipment. In a second position, the component through-hole is isolated from the component flow channel 600c, stopping the feeding of spherical components.

[0177] The baffle may not have component through holes; that is, the opening and closing of the component flow channel 600 can be achieved by moving the baffle, thereby controlling the feeding action of the spherical component.

[0178] like Figure 10 As shown, an observation window 115c can also be provided on the housing 110c to facilitate observation of the single-row process of the spherical element.

[0179] Combination Figure 2 A lifting device 05 is provided at the outlet end of the component flow channel 600c. The lifting device 05 can lift the spherical component to the required height and enter the downstream equipment.

[0180] To achieve automatic assembly and disassembly of the connector 07 between the container lid and the storage container 01, the connector assembly / disassembly mechanism 200a includes an assembly / disassembly tool, a floating slide 210a, and a first drive member 240a. The output shaft of the first drive member 240a is connected to the assembly / disassembly tool to drive the connector 07 to rotate and perform assembly / disassembly of the connector 07. The floating slide 210a is floatingly mounted on the mounting bracket 100a, and the floating plane of the floating slide 210a is perpendicular to the extension direction of the assembly / disassembly tool. The first drive member 240a is connected to the floating slide 210a, which allows the assembly / disassembly tool to move within the floating plane, thereby adjusting the position of the assembly / disassembly tool and facilitating alignment between the tool and the connector 07. Figure 3 The first driving component 240a is located at the first end of the floating slide 210a, and the disassembly and assembly tool is located at the second end of the floating slide 210a.

[0181] The first driving component 240a can be a servo motor, and the output shaft of the first driving component 240a is connected to a reducer 241a. The reducer 241a is located between the first driving component 240a and the floating slide 210a. Figure 3 The output shaft of the reducer 241a passes through the floating slide 210a and is connected to the disassembly / assembly tool via a transmission. The reducer 241a is bolted to the floating slide 210a. The first drive component 240a can be fixed to the reducer 241a by connecting bolts and floats with the floating slide 210a. A bearing is installed between the floating slide 210a and the output shaft of the reducer 241a to allow relative rotation between the two, avoiding interference with the rotation of the disassembly / assembly tool.

[0182] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the disassembly and assembly tool includes a sleeve 220a, a centering member 232a, and an elastic member 231a. The sleeve 220a is drively connected to the output shaft of the first driving member 240a. Figure 3 The centering member 232a is disposed within the sleeve 220a and has a centering head for embedding into the screw groove of the connector 07. By inserting the centering member 232a into the screw groove of the connector 07, the connector 07 can be rotated. The elastic member 231a is connected between the sleeve 220a and the centering member 232a to facilitate the alignment of the centering head with the screw groove of the connector 07.

[0183] The centering head of the centering part 232a can be configured in different forms, such as a cross-shaped head or a straight head, to accommodate different shaped screw grooves. The open end of the sleeve 220a can be chamfered to facilitate the insertion of the connector 07 into the sleeve 220a.

[0184] Through the extension and retraction of the elastic element 231a, the centering element 232a can slide within the sleeve 220a, and during the tightening process, it is ensured that the centering element 232a always reliably abuts against the connecting element 07. In order to limit the sliding range of the centering element 232a, a limiting step is provided on the inner wall of the sleeve 220a, and a limiting boss is provided on the centering element 232a for abutting against the limiting step, so as to limit the first extreme position of the movement of the centering element 232a. A baffle is provided at the end of the sleeve 220a near the first driving element 240a to limit the second extreme position of the movement of the centering element 232a.

[0185] The centering member 232a and the elastic member 231a constitute a screwing mechanism 230a for driving the connecting member 07 to rotate. Those skilled in the art will understand that setting the inner wall of the sleeve 220a at the end opening away from the first driving member 240a to a profile structure for fitting against the side wall of the connecting member 07 can also allow the disassembly and assembly tool to drive the connecting member 07 to rotate.

[0186] Specifically, when the connector 07 is a bolt, the profile structure at the opening of the sleeve 220a can be nested and fitted with the head of the bolt. For example, when the connector 07 is a hexagonal bolt, the profile structure can be the inner wall of a hexagon corresponding to the head of the hexagonal bolt.

[0187] To prevent the connector 07 from falling off during the transfer process, the sleeve 220a is provided with an adsorption element 221a that can hold the connector 07. Specifically, the adsorption element 221a can be a magnet disposed on the inner wall of the opening of the sleeve 220a. The connector 07 can be moved with the mounting bracket 100a by the adsorption element 221a to temporarily store the connector 07.

[0188] like Figure 3As shown, the connector assembly / disassembly mechanism 200a includes a limiting housing, which is mounted on the mounting bracket 100a. A floating slide 210a is disposed within the limiting housing, with a floating gap between the floating slide 210a and the limiting housing. The limiting housing restricts the floating range of the floating slide 210a. Ball bearings are provided at both ends of the floating slide 210a to facilitate its floating relative to the limiting housing and the mounting bracket 100a.

[0189] In one specific embodiment, the limiting housing is provided with a floating disc adjusting pin 211a for limiting the floating of the floating slide 210a. The floating disc adjusting pin 211a includes a fixed part, a movable part, and a telescopic part. The fixed part is disposed on the limiting housing, the movable part abuts against the floating slide 210a, and the two ends of the telescopic part abut against the fixed part and the movable part, respectively. The telescopic part can be an elastic restoring element such as a spring, and the fixed part is a structural block fixedly installed on the limiting housing, and has a mounting groove for installing the spring. The first end of the movable part abuts against the spring, and the second end abuts against the floating slide 210a. In order to better position with the spring, the first end of the movable part is provided with a positioning rod for inserting into the middle of the spring; in order to avoid scratching the floating slide 210a, the second end of the movable part has a curved structure.

[0190] By adjusting the telescopic function of the floating disc adjusting pin 211a, the floating slide 210a can be moved horizontally for position adjustment to facilitate alignment with the connector 07. Multiple floating disc adjusting pins 211a, such as four, can be evenly arranged along the circumference of the limiting housing to facilitate centering of the initial position of the floating slide 210a.

[0191] Furthermore, the limiting housing is mounted on the mounting bracket 100a via the floating disk positioning pin 212a, and the floating disk positioning pin 212a passes through the floating slide 210a. A floating gap is also left between the floating disk positioning pin 212a and the floating slide 210a for floating. The floating disk positioning pin 212a can ensure the center guidance of the floating slide 210a and prevent the floating slide 210a from rotating relative to the limiting housing.

[0192] To prevent debris generated during disassembly and assembly from interfering with the process, the cover-opening fixture 10a disclosed in this embodiment of the invention further includes a purging device 400a, which includes a jet head 410a and a jet pipe 420a. The nozzle of the jet head 410a faces the end of the disassembly and assembly tool used for the disassembly and assembly operation. One end of the jet pipe 420a is connected to the jet head 410a, and the other end is connected to an air pump. The air pump can provide a blowing airflow to the jet head to prevent debris generated during screw removal and assembly from interfering with the disassembly and assembly process of the disassembly and assembly tool.

[0193] like Figure 3As shown, the jet head 410a blows air towards the end of the sleeve 220a away from the mounting bracket 100a. The blowing effect of the jet airflow can be changed by altering the structure of the jet head 410a.

[0194] Combination Figure 4 The lid-moving mechanism 300a disclosed in this embodiment of the invention includes a tray fixing plate 310a, a telescopic tray 311a, and a second driving member 320a. The tray fixing plate 310a is disposed on the mounting bracket 100a, and the telescopic tray 311a is slidably disposed on the tray fixing plate 310a, with a slot at the end of the telescopic tray 311a for engaging with the container lid. The second driving member 320a is disposed on the tray fixing plate 310a and is throttle-connected to the telescopic tray 311a to push the telescopic tray 311a to engage with the container lid.

[0195] The second driving component 320a can be a driving electric cylinder (pneumatic cylinder). A slide rail can be provided on the tray fixing plate 310a to facilitate the sliding of the telescopic tray 311a. The second driving component 320a is bolted to the tray fixing plate 310a. The telescopic tray 311a can be pushed out by the second driving component 320a, and finally the slot on the telescopic tray 311a is engaged with the container lid.

[0196] Specifically, the container lid may have a pre-set structure for engaging with the slot, such as a lifting bolt 500a installed on the container lid, and the slot may engage with the bolt head of the lifting bolt 500a. The slot may be formed by two claws provided on the telescopic bracket 311a, and the lid moving mechanism 300a and the mounting bracket 100a may be bolted together.

[0197] To facilitate the positioning of connector 07, a vision system 102a and a distance sensor 101a are installed on the mounting bracket 100a near the disassembly / assembly tool. The vision system 102a allows the moving equipment (robotic arm) to easily adjust the position of the mounting bracket 100a, thereby achieving precise positioning of the disassembly / assembly tool and connector 07. The distance sensor 101a detects the distance between the mounting bracket 100a and the container lid, thereby automating the disassembly / assembly of connector 07.

[0198] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, a sensor mounting interface 101a is provided on the mounting bracket 100a, and the sensor mounting interface 101a is located at the end of the sensor mounting interface 101a closest to the container lid. Various sensors can be mounted on the sensor mounting interface 101a to assist in automating the lid-opening operation. For example, a distance sensor can be used to determine the distance between the lid-opening fixture 10a and the container lid.

[0199] like Figure 4As shown, in order to improve the efficiency of the disassembly and assembly of the connector 07, there are two connector disassembly and assembly mechanisms 200a symmetrically arranged on the mounting bracket 100a. There are two purging devices 400a, which correspond one-to-one with the connector disassembly and assembly mechanisms 200a and are arranged between the two connector disassembly and assembly mechanisms 200a, so that the blowing airflow is directed towards the outside of the mounting bracket 100a to avoid interference between different blowing airflows.

[0200] To enable the movement of the container lid, two lid-moving mechanisms 300a are symmetrically arranged on the mounting bracket 100a. Figure 4 The connecting component disassembly and assembly mechanism 200a and the cover-moving mechanism 300a are arranged vertically in a cross shape, and the telescopic brackets 311a of the two cover-moving mechanisms 300a extend in a direction away from each other and are respectively engaged with the lifting bolts 500a.

[0201] The container cover mentioned above can be the container cover of the storage container 01 used in the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor, and the connector 07 can be the connecting bolt used to connect the container cover.

[0202] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the mounting bracket 100a is driven by a robotic arm to move above the connecting bolt and gradually approach the connecting bolt. The servo motor drives the sleeve 220a to rotate, the robotic arm gradually descends, and the floating slide 210a adaptively adjusts to the center position of the connecting bolt. The bolt head enters the sleeve 220a, and the centering part 232a of the screwing mechanism 230a automatically adjusts and embeds into the screwing groove of the connecting bolt head. As the robotic arm rises, the sleeve 220a rotates and drives the connecting bolt to rotate away from the container cover. The built-in magnet of the sleeve 220a attracts the connecting bolt and lifts it with the mounting bracket 100a. At the same time, the air pump supplies air and delivers the blowing airflow to the air nozzle 410a through the air jet pipe 420a. The air nozzle 410a of the blowing device 400a outputs planar airflow to blow away debris and debris around the connecting bolt. After the connecting bolts are detached from the container lid, the telescopic bracket 311a of the mechanical lid-moving mechanism 300a extends and locks the lifting bolts 500a fixed on the container lid, and the robotic arm drives the mounting bracket 100a to move, thereby transferring the container lid.

[0203] The mounting bracket 100a of the lid-opening tool 10a disclosed in this embodiment of the invention can be connected to a mobile device such as a robotic arm that has a moving function. For example, the mounting bracket 100a can be connected to the end section of the robotic arm to realize the transfer of the container lid through the mobile device. At the same time, the mobile device has a lifting function so that it can be lifted or lowered by rotating the connecting part 07 during the disassembly and assembly process.

[0204] In order to temporarily store the connector 07 so that the container cover can be reinstalled on the storage container 01 after the material is discharged, the fuel supply system disclosed in this invention also includes a connector storage compartment 10d.

[0205] Combination Figure 14 The connector storage compartment 10d disclosed in this embodiment of the invention includes a mounting base 100d, a storage tray 200d, and a moving device. The storage tray 200d is disposed on the mounting base 100d and has a storage chamber 211d for storing the connector 07. The moving device is disposed on the mounting base 100d and is used to move the connector 07 between the storage chamber 211d and the access start position. A cover-opening fixture 10a connected to a robotic arm can move the connector 07 to the access start position.

[0206] The connector 07, located at the storage start position, can be moved by the moving device to the storage compartment 211d of the storage tray 200d for storage. When the connector 07 is needed, the moving device moves the connector 07 from the storage compartment 211d to the storage start position, facilitating its use. The connector storage compartment 10d disclosed in this embodiment of the invention can realize the automatic storage and retrieval of the connector 07 during disassembly, assembly, and maintenance, and can be applied to special working conditions where manual operation is inconvenient, thereby automating the storage and retrieval of the connector 07 and improving work efficiency.

[0207] The connector storage compartment 10d disclosed in this embodiment of the invention can also be used to store fasteners such as screws and bolts.

[0208] In order to store the connector 07, the storage compartment 211d has multiple through holes opened in the storage compartment 200d. Each storage compartment 200d is used to store one connector 07, and the connector 07 is attached to the storage compartment 211d.

[0209] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the moving device includes a push rod mechanism 400d and a clamping mechanism 300d. The push rod mechanism 400d is disposed on the lower side of the storage compartment 200d, and the clamping mechanism 300d is disposed on the upper side of the storage compartment 200d. The access start position is located on the clamping mechanism 300d. The push rod mechanism 400d is used to push the connector 07 to move between the storage compartment 211d and the access start position, and the clamping mechanism 300d is used to clamp the connector 07.

[0210] The aperture of the storage compartment 211d is larger than the outer diameter of the top rod 420d and smaller than the diameter of the head of the connector 07, so that the top rod 420d can pass freely through the storage compartment 211d and the connector 07 can be attached to the storage compartment 211d.

[0211] When it is necessary to remove the connector 07, the connector 07, which is attached to the storage compartment 211d, can be pushed to the storage start position by the push rod mechanism 400d and clamped by the clamping mechanism 300d.

[0212] When it is necessary to store the connector 07, the connector 07 clamped by the clamping mechanism 300d is held in place by the push rod mechanism, and then the clamping mechanism 300d is released from the connector 07. Finally, under the action of gravity, the connector 07 moves down with the push rod mechanism and enters the storage chamber 211d, thus realizing the storage of the connector 07.

[0213] In a fully automated fuel supply system, the clamping mechanism 300d can clamp and hold the connector 07 transported by the opening fixture 10a in the initial storage position for subsequent storage. When it is necessary to remove it, the clamping mechanism 300d can make it easy for the opening fixture 10a to move after the connector 07 is fixed, so as to carry out the subsequent installation of the container lid and the storage container 01.

[0214] like Figure 14 As shown, the push rod mechanism disclosed in this embodiment of the invention includes a push rod mechanism 400d comprising a push rod 420d and a push rod drive motor 410d. The push rod 420d is arranged parallel to the extension direction of the storage compartment 211d and corresponds to the clamping mechanism 300d to push the connecting member 07 to move between the storage compartment 211d and the access start position. The push rod drive motor 410d is mounted on the mounting base 100d, and the push rod 420d is drively connected to the push rod drive motor 410d to drive the extension and retraction of the push rod 420d and push the connecting member 07.

[0215] To ensure the pushing effect of the push rod mechanism 400d, both the push rod 420d and the storage compartment 211d extend vertically. It should be noted that the push rod 420d and the storage compartment 211d can be arranged at an angle to the vertical (i.e., tilted relative to the vertical), but this arrangement carries the risk of the connector 07 falling off. A magnetic attachment can be installed on the push rod 420d to facilitate the attraction of the connector 07 during transfer, further preventing it from falling off.

[0216] To further ensure the pushing effect of the push rod mechanism and to prevent the connector 07 from falling off during movement, a fastener tapered groove is provided at the end of the push rod 420d away from the push rod drive motor 410d. The diameter of the rod body of the connector 07 is smaller than the diameter of the large diameter end of the fastener tapered groove, but larger than the diameter of the small diameter end of the fastener tapered groove.

[0217] When the push rod 420d pushes the connector 07, the rod body of the connector 07 is embedded in the fastener tapered groove and fits against the side wall of the fastener tapered groove to guide the connector 07 and prevent it from tilting.

[0218] To ensure the accuracy of accessing connector 07, the connector access compartment 10d disclosed in this embodiment of the invention further includes a detection mechanism 500d, such as... Figure 15As shown, the detection mechanism 500d includes a photoelectric switch 520d and a proximity switch 510d. The photoelectric switch 520d is mounted on the mounting base 100d and can detect the position of the connector 07 to determine whether the corresponding storage compartment 211d contains the connector 07. The proximity switch 510d, also mounted on the mounting base 100d, can detect the specific position of the moving end of the push rod 420d. The detection mechanism 500d improves the accuracy of the storage and retrieval process.

[0219] The specific structures of photoelectric switch 520d and proximity switch 510d are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0220] The clamping mechanism 300d disclosed in this embodiment of the invention includes a clamping base 310d, a clamping device 320d, and a clamping drive motor 330d. The clamping base 310d is disposed on the mounting base 100d and is used to mount the clamping device 320d and the clamping drive motor 330d. The clamping device 320d is disposed on the clamping base 310d and is used to clamp the connecting piece 07. The clamping drive motor 330d is disposed on the clamping base 310d and is drively connected to the clamping device 320d.

[0221] like Figure 17 As shown, the gripper 320d has two grippers 321d, which together form a clamping groove for gripping the connector 07. The gripping drive motor 330d can drive the two grippers to achieve opening and closing movements.

[0222] like Figure 14 As shown, a connecting platform 311d is provided on the mounting base 100d, and a clamp fixing base 310d is provided on the connecting platform 311d, which is located in the middle of the mounting base 100d. The clamp fixing base 310d and the connecting platform 311d are bolted together. The push rod drive motor 410d of the push rod mechanism 400d is bolted to the connecting platform 311d.

[0223] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the moving device includes a clamping mechanism 300d and a lifting mechanism. The fixed end of the lifting mechanism is disposed on the mounting base 100d, and the clamping mechanism 300d is disposed on the moving end of the lifting mechanism. The clamping mechanism 300d is used to clamp the connector 07. The lifting mechanism can drive the clamping mechanism 300d to move up and down, thereby enabling the connector 07 to move between the storage compartment 211d and the access start position. At this time, the storage compartment 211d can be a non-through hole, as long as part of the connector 07 is exposed for the clamping mechanism 300d to clamp.

[0224] The lifting mechanism includes a lifting drive motor and a lifting rod. The lifting drive motor is mounted on the connecting platform 311d and is connected to the lifting rod for transmission. The clamping mechanism 300d is located at the end of the lifting rod away from the lifting drive motor.

[0225] The storage tray 200d disclosed in this embodiment of the invention includes a rotating disk 210d, a transmission rod 220d, and a storage tray drive motor 230d. The transmission rod 220d passes through the mounting base 100d, and its first end is connected to the rotating disk 210d. The rotating disk 210d has multiple storage compartments 211d arranged circumferentially along the transmission rod 220d. The storage tray drive motor 230d is driven by the second end of the transmission rod 220d and is mounted on the mounting base 100d to drive the rotating disk 210d to rotate and to align each storage compartment 211d with a moving device.

[0226] Based on the specific position of the storage compartment 211d on the rotating disk 210d, the required rotation angle of the rotating disk 210d each time can be calculated, and the rotation is directly controlled by the storage compartment disk drive motor 230d, so that the photoelectric switch 520d can determine whether the corresponding storage compartment 211d contains the connector 07, and then the moving mechanism performs the corresponding action.

[0227] like Figure 14 As shown, the first end of the transmission rod 220d is a connecting plate, which is bolted to the rotating disk 210d. The storage bin drive motor 230d and the mounting base 100d are bolted together.

[0228] Combination Figure 16 Storage compartment 211d consists of one or more rings evenly distributed around the storage compartment tray 200d. Figure 15 The diagram shows two rings, each ring containing multiple storage compartments 211d, and each ring of storage compartments 200d is equipped with a corresponding moving device to facilitate the movement of the connectors 07 located in different rings.

[0229] Furthermore, the storage compartment 211d can be designed in different sizes in conjunction with the connector 07.

[0230] like Figure 16 As shown, storage compartments 211d are two rings formed on storage compartment disk 200d, and connecting platform 311d is one ring surrounding mounting base 100d. There are two moving devices, which are respectively set at both ends of connecting platform 311d and correspond to one ring of storage compartment 211d.

[0231] Those skilled in the art will understand that the mobile device may also include a circumferential linear drive mechanism for driving the clamping mechanism 300d to move circumferentially along the rotary disk 210d, so as to realize the movement of the mobile device between different storage chambers 211d. In this case, only one mobile device is needed to access the connecting parts 07 of different chambers.

[0232] When the storage tray 200d is fixed, the moving device may also include a circumferential drive mechanism for driving the clamping mechanism 300d to rotate circumferentially around the rotating disk 210d, so as to realize the movement of the moving device on different connecting parts 07 in the same storage compartment 211d, that is, the relative rotation of the two can be achieved by selecting only one of the storage tray 200d and the moving device to rotate.

[0233] The connector storage and retrieval bin 10d disclosed in this embodiment of the invention can help automate the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor loading process, improve operational efficiency, and reduce the impact of the loading process on the health of workers under nuclear radiation conditions.

[0234] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the connector 07 is a screw. The connector storage compartment 10d is in a closed state before the clamp 320d is used to store the screw. The push rod 420d of the push rod mechanism 400d passes through a storage compartment 211d hole of the storage compartment disk 200d and rises to the top. When the screw is placed in the clamp 320d and the lower part of the screw contacts the push rod 420d, the clamp 320d is released. The screw falls down with the push rod 420d under the action of the push rod drive motor 410d. Guided by the push rod 420d, the screw falls into the corresponding storage compartment 211d hole of the rotating disk 210d, realizing the storage of this screw. The rotating disk 210d rotates to the next storage compartment 211d hole, and the push rod 420d passes through the next storage compartment 211d hole and rises to the top, waiting to receive the next bolt.

[0235] Before the screw is retrieved, the clamp 320d in the connector storage compartment 10d is in the open state. The push rod 420d of the push rod mechanism 400d is located below the screw to be retrieved and descends to the bottom. When retrieval is required, the push rod 420d rises under the action of the push rod drive motor 410d and rises together with the screw in the corresponding storage compartment 211d hole. After rising to a certain height, the clamp 320d closes, clamping the screw and waiting for the next retrieval. The push rod 420d descends to the bottom, and the rotating disk 210d rotates to the next screw position, waiting to retrieve the screw in the next position. During the screw storage and retrieval process, the photoelectric switch 520d detects whether the current storage compartment 211d hole (the storage compartment 211d hole opposite to the push rod 420d) stores a bolt, and the proximity switch 510d detects the position status of the push rod 420d.

[0236] Combination Figure 18 The storage rack 10e disclosed in this embodiment of the invention includes a storage rack module 100e, which includes a storage unit column. The storage unit column includes multiple storage units 110e stacked vertically, and each storage unit 110e forms a storage space 111e for storing storage containers 01. By stacking multiple storage units 110e vertically, multiple storage containers 01 can be stored simultaneously in the vertical direction, saving floor space.

[0237] It should be noted that, in order to effectively improve space utilization, the number of layers of storage units 110e arranged vertically in the storage unit column can be set according to actual needs, for example, 2 to 5 layers. Figure 18 The storage unit 110e has multiple layers (such as 3 layers). When the number of layers arranged in the vertical direction is large, the structural strength of the storage unit 110e will be required to be higher, which will increase the cost.

[0238] To facilitate access to and from storage containers 01, adjacent storage spaces 111e located in the same storage unit column are connected vertically. When storing storage containers 01, they can be hoisted to pass through each storage space 111e sequentially from above and finally placed on the ground or on the bottom storage unit 110e. The remaining storage containers 01 are then stacked on top of the bottom storage container 01.

[0239] When two adjacent storage spaces 111e located in the same storage unit column are not connected in the vertical direction, a lateral opening can be provided on the side wall of the storage unit 110e, and the storage container 01 can be accessed through the lateral opening. At this time, it is necessary to prevent the storage container 01 from falling out of the lateral opening.

[0240] The storage unit 110e located at the top of the same storage unit column along the vertical direction is defined as the first storage unit, and the storage unit 110e located below the first storage unit is defined as the second storage unit.

[0241] To reduce dust accumulation on storage container 01 during storage and to physically isolate storage container 01, a dust-proof manhole cover module 200e is provided on the first storage unit. The manhole cover module 200e includes a manhole cover 230e, a transmission component 220e, and a drive component 210e. The manhole cover 230e is hinged to the end of the first storage unit away from the second storage unit. The output end of the transmission component 220e is connected to the manhole cover module 200e. The drive component 210e is disposed on the first storage unit and is drively connected to the input end of the transmission component 220e. The drive component 210e can drive the manhole cover 230e to rotate and open / close.

[0242] When accessing storage container 01, the manhole cover 230e can be opened to facilitate the vertical movement of the storage container 01 by the hoisting device. During storage, the manhole cover 230e can be closed to isolate and protect the storage container 01 and prevent dust accumulation on its top. Simultaneously, during maintenance, closing all manhole covers 230e creates a platform on top of the entire storage rack 10e, allowing personnel to walk on it and use it as a maintenance platform.

[0243] It should be noted that the well cover 230e should open in the direction away from the first storage unit to avoid interference between the well cover 230e and the storage container 01 when the storage container 01 is placed into the first storage unit, thus preventing it from closing. The drive unit 210e can be controlled by the host computer signal to drive the well cover 230e to rotate. The specific rotation angle range of the well cover 230e can be set by the user, for example, from 0 to 110°.

[0244] like Figure 21 As shown, the driving component 210e is a drive motor and is located at the side corner of the outer wall of the first storage unit to avoid interference with the access of the storage container 01. The transmission component 220e includes a transmission shaft and a transmission connecting plate. The transmission shaft is connected to the driving component 210e and is the input end of the transmission component 220e. One end of the transmission connecting plate is sleeved on the transmission shaft, and the other end is connected to the well cover 230e, which is the output end of the transmission component 220e.

[0245] Combination Figure 21 The drive motor controls the rotation of the transmission shaft, which in turn drives the transmission connecting plate to rotate, thereby causing the transmission connecting plate to rotate the well cover 230e, thus realizing the opening and closing of the well cover 230e.

[0246] The opening and closing of the manhole cover 230e can also be achieved through other transmission components, such as cam assemblies, linkage assemblies, etc., and is not limited to the aforementioned transmission components.

[0247] In the vertical direction, between two adjacent storage units 110e located in the same storage unit column, the storage unit 110e located above is the third storage unit, and the storage unit 110e located below is the fourth storage unit.

[0248] In order to achieve the connection between two adjacent storage units 110e in the vertical direction, the third storage unit is provided with a positioning groove 1121e, and the fourth storage unit is provided with a positioning protrusion 1122e for embedding in the positioning groove 1121e. The positioning groove 1121e and the positioning protrusion 1122e can be used to position the two units, which facilitates their installation and ensures the verticality of the storage rack module 100e.

[0249] The positions of the positioning groove 1121e and the positioning protrusion 1122e can be interchanged, that is, the fourth storage unit is provided with the positioning groove 1121e, and the third storage unit is provided with the positioning protrusion 1122e for embedding into the positioning groove 1121e.

[0250] To ensure reliable connection, adjacent storage units 110e can be connected by bolts for easy assembly and disassembly.

[0251] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the storage rack module 100e includes a protective crossbeam 113e and a connecting vertical beam 112e. The protective crossbeam 113e extends horizontally, and the connecting vertical beam 112e extends vertically. The protective crossbeam 113e and the connecting vertical beam 112e are connected and enclose the aforementioned storage space 111e.

[0252] Combination Figure 18 and Figure 21 Each storage unit 110e includes eight protective crossbeams 113e and four connecting vertical beams 112e. Two protective crossbeams 113e are symmetrically connected between two adjacent connecting vertical beams 112e. Reinforcing ribs can be provided between the protective crossbeams 113e and the connecting vertical beams 112e to improve the connection strength.

[0253] The protective crossbeam 113e and the connecting vertical beam 112e can be detachably connected by bolts, and the reinforcing ribs can also be detachably connected by bolts.

[0254] Combination Figure 19 The connecting vertical beams 112e of two storage units 110e located in the same storage unit column along the vertical direction are connected by connecting bolts 130e, and the positioning grooves 1121e and positioning protrusions 1122e are respectively provided on the connecting vertical beams 112e of the two storage units 110e.

[0255] The protective crossbeams 113e and connecting vertical beams 112e of each storage unit 110e can be made by welding steel profiles to form a unified welded assembly, which facilitates the pre-customization of storage units 110e, saves procurement cycle and cost, and the storage rack modules 100e are assembled after arriving at the actual site, which facilitates transportation.

[0256] Because the hoisting process of storage container 01 is unstable, in order to prevent storage container 01 from shifting into the gap between protective beam 113e and connecting vertical beam 112e during storage and retrieval, a guide 120e is provided on protective beam 113e. The guide 120e extends vertically and is used to guide the storage container 01 during storage.

[0257] like Figure 18As shown, the guide members 120e are multiple pairs on the symmetrical protective beam 113e. The storage container 01 passes through the middle of each pair of guide members 120e. Both ends of the guide members 120e are inclined away from the storage space 111e so that a pair of guide members 120e can form a guide channel that is wide at both ends and narrow in the middle.

[0258] Figure 18 In the middle, each protective beam 113e is provided with a guide component 120e, and the guide component 120e is arranged in the middle position of the protective beam 113e.

[0259] When the storage container 01 first enters between the pair of guide members 120e, the distance between the two guide members 120e is relatively large. As the guide members 120e continue to rise or fall, the storage container 01 moves to the middle of the guide members 120e, and its position is gradually corrected. The guide channel formed by the guide members 120e, which is wide at both ends and narrow in the middle, ensures that the storage container 01 moves along the guide channel during the process of being placed in or taken out, reducing the difficulty of automatic storage and retrieval of the storage container 01.

[0260] When a protective side plate is provided on the side wall of the storage unit 110e (i.e., a protective side plate connects the protective crossbeam 113e and the connecting vertical beam 112e), the protective side plate can replace the guide member 120e to perform the guiding function and prevent the storage container 01 from coming out through the gap between the protective crossbeam 113e and the connecting vertical beam 112e. Compared to a fully protective side plate, the guide member 120e can be a smaller guide rod and connected by bolts, saving costs.

[0261] To improve storage efficiency, the storage rack module 100e may include multiple rows of storage units arranged in a horizontal array, such as... Figure 21 As shown, in a specific embodiment, a storage rack module 100e includes two rows and two columns, totaling four storage unit columns. Each storage unit column has three storage units 110e arranged vertically, meaning that one storage rack module 100e can store 12 storage containers 01. The protective beams 113e of two adjacent storage units 110e along the horizontal direction can be shared.

[0262] It should be noted that the storage rack module 100e can also be designed as an MxN array other than the 2x2 array mentioned above. Here, N is the number of rows of storage unit columns included in the storage rack module 100e along the horizontal direction, and M is the number of columns of storage unit columns included in the storage rack module 100e along the horizontal direction. Both N and M are positive integers. The number of storage units 110e stacked vertically in each storage unit column can also be reasonably set.

[0263] Furthermore, there are multiple storage rack modules 100e arranged in a horizontal direction, and two adjacent storage rack modules 100e are connected by module connectors 300e.

[0264] Combination Figure 22 The module connector 300e includes a connecting body 310e and two symmetrically arranged connecting legs 320e. The two connecting legs 320e are fixed to two storage unit columns respectively to realize the connection between the two. The module connector 300e can also be a welded steel section.

[0265] Furthermore, reinforcing ribs 330e can be provided between the connecting body 310e and the connecting leg 320e to enhance structural strength. The module connector 300e is fixed to the storage unit column (connecting vertical beam 112e) by connecting bolts.

[0266] like Figure 21 As shown, each storage rack module 100e can be extended on all four sides in the horizontal direction by the module connector 300e, and in the vertical direction, the storage rack module 100e can be extended by stacking storage units 110e.

[0267] By rationally designing the structure of the storage rack module 100e and arranging it according to the actual storage room conditions, space can be fully utilized and various layout structures can be achieved, thereby improving the applicability of the storage rack 10e.

[0268] like Figure 20 As shown, in order to fix the storage grid 10e, a mounting base 114e is provided at the end of the storage unit row near the ground. The mounting base 114e can be used to fix it to the ground and resist earthquakes. Specifically, it can be detachably connected to the ground by bolts, and reinforcing ribs can be provided between the mounting base 114e and the connecting vertical beam 112e.

[0269] Furthermore, a positioning block 115e is provided on the mounting base 114e, which can position the storage container 01 located at the bottom of the storage unit row for support on the ground. Figure 18 As shown, the positioning blocks 115e are located at the four corners at the bottom of each storage unit column.

[0270] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the transfer equipment includes a transport vehicle 10h, a first lifting device, and a second lifting device. The transport vehicle 10h is used to transport the storage container 01 located at the initial position to the storage unit 110e, and to transport the storage container 01 stored in the storage unit 110e to the lifting position. The first lifting device is used to move the storage container 01 between the initial position and the transport vehicle 10h, and between the transport vehicle 10h and the storage unit 110e. The second lifting device is used to transfer the storage container 01 located at the lifting position to the tilting device.

[0271] It should be noted that, in addition to transferring the full storage container 01 from its initial position to the tilting device to complete the warehousing and loading operations, the transfer equipment can also transfer the storage container 01 from the tilting device back to its initial position to complete the outbound operation of the empty storage container 01.

[0272] The first lifting device includes a first lifting trolley 03 and a first lifting device 10g. The first lifting trolley 03 is used to move in conjunction with the lifting guide rail. The first lifting device 10g includes a lifting device connecting frame 100g connected to the first lifting trolley 03, and a clamping mechanism 200g for clamping the storage container 01. The clamping mechanism 200g is connected to the lifting device connecting frame 100g. The first lifting device can be configured as two units with similar structures, used to move the storage container 01 between the initial position and the transport vehicle 10h, and to move the storage container 01 between the transport vehicle 10h and the storage unit 110e, respectively.

[0273] Combination Figure 25 and Figure 26 The first lifting device 10g disclosed in this embodiment of the invention achieves centering and clamping of the storage container 01 through the clamping mechanism 200g. Specifically, in the first state, the clamping component 230g is connected to the storage container 01; in the second state, the clamping component 230g is separated from the storage container 01.

[0274] During hoisting, the first hoisting trolley 03 controls the rigid components to lower the first lifting device 10g to a hoisting position close to the storage container 01, and then controls the clamping mechanism 200g to be in the first state to achieve clamping connection with the storage container 01. At this time, the first hoisting trolley 03 can drive the storage container 01 to be transferred. After moving to the designated position, the clamping mechanism 200g is controlled to be in the second state to achieve separation from the storage container 01, thus completing the hoisting and transfer operation.

[0275] The clamping component 230g can be a telescopic pin, a clamping claw, or other similar structure. The storage container 01 has a corresponding clamping structure for clamping the clamping component 230g, such as lifting lugs or lifting holes. Automatic clamping and unclamping of the storage container 01 can improve lifting operation efficiency and reduce labor costs.

[0276] Since there may be a positional error between the clamping mechanism 200g and the storage container 01 when the first lifting device 10g approaches the storage container 01, making it impossible for the clamping component 230g to align with the clamping structure of the storage container 01, in a specific embodiment of the present invention, a rotating mechanism 300g is connected between the lifting device connecting frame 100g and the clamping mechanism 200g. The rotating mechanism 300g can realize the rotation of the relative positions of the lifting device connecting frame 100g and the clamping mechanism 200g, so that the clamping component 230g can be aligned with the clamping structure and realize the clamping connection between the two.

[0277] Specifically, the rotating mechanism 300g includes a first rotating part 310g, a second rotating part 320g, and a first driving member. The first rotating part 310g is connected to the lifting device connecting frame 100g, and the second rotating part 320g is connected to the clamping mechanism 200g, with the second rotating part 320g rotatably connected to the first rotating part 310g. The first driving member is drively connected to the second rotating part 320g to drive the second rotating part 320g to rotate relative to the first rotating part 310g, thereby allowing the clamping mechanism 200g to rotate relative to the lifting device connecting frame 100g and aligning the clamping component 230g with the clamping structure of the storage container 01.

[0278] The first rotating part 310g includes an internal gear 311g and a first mounting component. The internal gear 311g is connected to the first mounting component, and the lifting device connecting frame 100g is connected to the first mounting component. The second rotating part 320g includes a rotating gear 321g (a common gear) for meshing with the internal gear 311g and a second mounting component. The rotating gear 321g is connected to the second mounting component (engaged). Figure 27 (The rotating gear 321g is eccentrically arranged relative to the second mounting part), and the clamping mechanism 200g is connected to the second mounting part.

[0279] like Figure 27 As shown, a bearing structure 312g for reducing friction is provided between the second mounting member and the first mounting member at the portion where the second mounting member is embedded.

[0280] The first driving component is a drive motor. After the storage container 01 is locked in place, to prevent the first rotating part 310g and the second rotating part 320g from rotating relative to each other during the transfer process, the first driving component can be self-locking. The angle of mutual rotation between the first rotating part 310g and the second rotating part 320g can be set according to actual needs, for example, ±10°.

[0281] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the mounting mechanism 200g includes a mounting body 210g, a mounting component 230g, and a second driving component 220g. The mounting body 210g is connected to the second rotating part 320g, and the mounting component 230g is disposed on the mounting body 210g. The mounting component 230g is a telescopic pin. In a first state, the telescopic pin extends out of the mounting body 210g and engages with the storage container 01. In a second state, the telescopic pin retracts into the mounting body 210g and separates from the storage container 01, thus preventing collisions or snagging with other equipment during shutdown.

[0282] The second driving component 220g is disposed on the mounting body 210g and is connected to the mounting component 230g in a transmission manner to drive the mounting component 230g to switch between the first state and the second state.

[0283] Combination Figure 26 A rigid cylinder 211g is bolted to one end of the mounting body 210g near the lifting device connecting frame 100g. The rigid cylinder 211g is coaxially arranged with the second rotating part 320g, and the second driving component 220g is installed inside the rigid cylinder 211g. The second driving component 220g can be a drive motor. Furthermore, structural holes for weight reduction can be formed on the rigid cylinder 211g.

[0284] The aforementioned clamping component 230g can also be replaced with a gripper for clamping the storage container 01, or a clamping plate with a slot for supporting the storage container 01, as long as it can clamp the storage container 01. The clamping component 230g slides telescopically within the side hole of the clamping body 210g.

[0285] like Figure 28 As shown, multiple telescopic pins are symmetrically arranged on the mounting body 210g, and a synchronous transmission assembly 240g is provided between the second driving member 220g and the mounting component 230g to drive the synchronous extension and retraction of each mounting component 230g, so as to realize the synchronous switching of the telescopic pins between the first state and the second state.

[0286] The synchronous transmission assembly 240g includes a synchronous transmission gear, a first transmission member 241g, and a second transmission member 242g. The synchronous transmission gear is connected to the second driving member 220g and is driven to rotate by the second driving member 220g. Mounting components 230g are symmetrically arranged on the first transmission member 241g and the second transmission member 242g, and both the first transmission member 241g and the second transmission member 242g mesh with the synchronous transmission gear to achieve telescopic drive of each mounting component 230g.

[0287] like Figure 28As shown, the first transmission component 241g is a sliding linkage structure, and includes a first transmission part and a first mounting part. The first transmission part is provided with a first transmission rack for meshing with a synchronous transmission gear. The first mounting part is fixedly connected to a mounting component 230g. The first transmission part and the first mounting part are fixedly connected.

[0288] The first mounting part can be arranged perpendicular to the extension direction of the first transmission part, and two telescopic pins can be symmetrically arranged on the first mounting part. Furthermore, in order to guide the transmission of the first transmission component 241g, a first slide rail is provided on the mounting body 210g. The first slide rail extends along the movement direction of the first transmission part and slides in cooperation with the first transmission part.

[0289] The second transmission component 242g can be configured with the same sliding linkage structure as the first transmission component 241g. Specifically, the second transmission component 242g includes a second transmission part and a second mounting part. The second transmission part is equipped with a second transmission rack for meshing with a synchronous transmission gear, and the second mounting part is equipped with a mounting component 230g. The second transmission part and the second mounting part are connected. The second mounting part is arranged perpendicular to the extension direction of the second transmission part, and two telescopic pins are symmetrically arranged on the second mounting part. A second slide rail is provided on the mounting body 210g, extending along the movement direction of the second transmission part and slidingly engaging with it.

[0290] When the second transmission component 242g and the first transmission component 241g have the same structure, they can be arranged in a centrally symmetrical manner relative to the synchronous transmission gear. When the storage container 01 is installed, the synchronous transmission gear rotates, and the first transmission component 241g and the second transmission component 242g respectively drive the telescopic pin to extend axially at both ends and engage with the storage container 01.

[0291] To prevent the telescopic pin from retracting after the storage container 01 is secured, a safety locking element 243g is provided on the securing body 210g, and a safety groove is provided on the synchronous transmission assembly 240g. In the first state (the state where the securing component 230g is secured to the storage container 01), the safety locking element 243g is embedded in the safety groove, preventing the first transmission component 241g and the second transmission component 242g from moving, thereby preventing the synchronous transmission assembly 240g from transmitting power and achieving state locking. Specifically, the safety groove can be simultaneously provided on the first transmission component 241g and the second transmission component 242g, and there are two corresponding safety locking elements 243g to lock the states of the first transmission component 241g and the second transmission component 242g respectively.

[0292] The safety locking element 243g can also be a single unit, as long as it can simultaneously restrict the movement of the first transmission element 241g and the second transmission element 242g.

[0293] like Figure 28As shown, the mounting body 210g is also provided with an anti-torsion assembly 231g to prevent the telescopic pin from rotating. Multiple sets of anti-torsion assemblies 231g correspond one-to-one with the telescopic pin. In a specific embodiment, each set of anti-torsion assemblies 231g includes a fixed shaft and a fixed plate. The fixed shaft consists of two shafts that slide in conjunction with the mounting body 210g and are arranged parallel to the telescopic pin. Both the fixed shaft and the telescopic pin are fixedly connected to the fixed plate, and the mounting end of the telescopic pin protrudes from the fixed plate. As the telescopic pin extends and retracts, the fixed shaft and the fixed plate move synchronously, effectively preventing the telescopic pin of the cylindrical structure from torturing.

[0294] When the telescopic pin is a square shaft, the anti-torsion component 231 mentioned above can also play the role of anti-torsion, and the square hole of the mounting body 210g for sliding of the telescopic pin can also limit the torsion of the telescopic pin.

[0295] To facilitate the alignment and loading of the loading mechanism 200g with the storage container 01, such as... Figure 25 As shown, a first guide member 213g and a second guide member 215g are provided at the end of the mounting body 210g away from the lifting device connecting frame 100g. Multiple first guide members 213g form a guide channel for the storage container 01 to enter. The cross-sectional area of ​​the guide channel near the mounting body 210g is smaller than the cross-sectional area away from the mounting body 210g, so as to conform to the outer wall of the storage container 01 for alignment. When the lifting device approaches the storage container 01 from above, the storage container 01 enters through the guide channel and gradually approaches the telescopic pin. When there is a positional deviation between the mounting mechanism 200g and the storage container 01, the first guide member 213g drives the mounting body 210g to rotate or move, gradually correcting the positional deviation. The alignment of the first guide member 213g includes relative rotation and relative movement between 211g and the second rotating part 320g.

[0296] In one specific embodiment, the mounting body 210g is a square frame steel structure manufactured after double-layer welding, and the first guide member 213g consists of eight thin-walled structures evenly arranged circumferentially on the mounting body 210g. Each first guide member 213g includes a first guide section and a second guide section. The first guide section extends along the extension direction of the mounting body 210g and connects to the mounting body 210g. The second guide section connects to the first guide section, and the second guide section is inclined in a direction away from each other. The first guide member 213g can assist the first lifting device 10g in completing the positioning.

[0297] There are multiple second guide members 215g, and each second guide member 215g is used to fit against the inner wall of the hoisting part of the storage container 01. Figure 25As the lifting device approaches the storage container 01, the storage container 01 is first guided by the first guide member 213g, and then the second guide member 215g comes into contact with the inner wall of the lifting part of the storage container 01 to further guide the storage container 01.

[0298] like Figure 26 As shown, a sliding support leg 214g is provided at the end of the mounting body 210g away from the lifting device connecting frame 100g. There are four sliding supports 214g symmetrically arranged on the mounting body 210g, which facilitate the adjustment of the position of the mounting body 210g relative to the storage container 01.

[0299] Combination Figure 26 A floating gap is provided between the second mounting part of the second rotating part 320g and the rigid cylinder 211g for adjustment, which allows the clamping mechanism 200g to rotate or move relative to the storage container 01, thereby adjusting its position.

[0300] like Figure 25 As shown, a flexible chain 330g is connected between the mounting body 210g and the second rotating part 320g for flexible connection, and the flexible chain 330g is connected to the second mounting part and the mounting body 210g respectively, thereby facilitating the mounting mechanism 200g to float relative to the second rotating part 320g.

[0301] Specifically, the flexible chain 330g includes an eye bolt 331g, a link chain 332g, and a D-ring 333g. The D-ring 333g is connected to the mounting body 210g, the eye bolt 331g is connected to the second mounting component, and the link chain 332g connects the eye bolt 331g and the D-ring 333g. There are four flexible chains 330g symmetrically connected between the mounting body 210g and the second mounting component.

[0302] like Figure 26 As shown, a protective outer shell 212g is provided on the mounting body 210g. One end of the outer shell 212g is sleeved on the first rotating part 310g, and a floating gap is left between the outer shell 212g and the first rotating part 310g for adjustment with the second rotating part 320g. The second end of the outer shell 212g can be welded or bolted to the mounting body 210g.

[0303] Combination Figure 24The second lifting device includes a second lifting trolley 10f and a second lifting device 04. The second lifting trolley 10f includes a moving mechanism 100f and a lifting mechanism 200f. The lifting mechanism 200f is provided with multiple lifting points to improve the stability of the lifting process during hoisting, lifting, and transfer. The lifting mechanism 200f is mounted on the moving mechanism 100f, which is used to roll in conjunction with the lifting guide rail to realize the transfer of the storage container 01. The second lifting device 04 is connected to the lifting mechanism 200f and is used to lift the storage container 01.

[0304] The second lifting device 04 includes a lifting device connecting frame for connecting with the lifting mechanism 200f, and a clamping mechanism for clamping the storage container 01, and the clamping mechanism is connected to the lifting device connecting frame.

[0305] The clamping mechanism of the second lifting device 04 and the clamping mechanism 200g of the first lifting device 10g can have the same structure.

[0306] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the hoisting mechanism 200f includes a drum 210f, a hoisting rope fixing member 220f, and a hoisting rope 230f. The drum 210f is disposed on the moving mechanism 100f, and the hoisting rope fixing member 220f is disposed on the moving mechanism 100f. Both the drum 210f and the hoisting rope fixing member 220f can move along the hoisting guide rail with the moving mechanism 100f to transfer the storage container 01. One end of the hoisting rope 230f is wound onto the drum 210f, and the other end passes over the movable pulley assembly 231f and is connected to the hoisting rope fixing member 220f. The hoisting point is formed on the movable pulley assembly 231f.

[0307] As the hoisting rope 230f is wound up and lowered, the movable pulley assembly 231f gradually rises or falls. The hoisting point set on the movable pulley assembly 231f can approach the storage container 01 along with the movable pulley assembly 231f, driving the storage container 01 to be lifted, and the storage container 01 is transferred and lowered.

[0308] The movable pulley assembly 231f includes a movable pulley and a mounting base. The movable pulley is rotatably connected to the mounting base. The lifting rope 230f passes through the groove of the movable pulley. The mounting base is used to connect to the storage container 01, and the lifting point is formed on the bottom surface of the mounting base. Specifically, lifting hooks or other lifting devices can be installed on each mounting base for multi-point lifting, or all mounting bases can be connected to a second lifting device 04 for lifting, thereby improving the stability of the lifting through multi-point lifting.

[0309] By connecting all the mounting bases to a second lifting device 04 for hoisting, the hoisting process can be easily automated without the need for manual connection between the various lifting devices and the hoisting components.

[0310] The lifting rope 230f can be a traction rope. The lifting rope fixing component 220f can be a lifting lug or lifting ring that is welded or bolted to the moving mechanism 100f.

[0311] like Figure 23 As shown, the hoisting mechanism 200f disclosed in this embodiment of the invention is driven by a drive mechanism 300f, which includes a first drive member 310f and a gearbox 330f. The first drive member 310f is disposed on the moving mechanism 100f, and the gearbox 330f is kinetically connected between the first drive member 310f and the drum 210f. The first drive member 310f can drive the drum 210f to rotate, thereby realizing the lowering and winding of the hoisting rope 230f.

[0312] The first driving component 310f can be a drive motor.

[0313] like Figure 24 As shown, there are two drums 210f symmetrically arranged on the moving mechanism 100f to form multiple lifting points. There is one gearbox 330f with two output gears. The two output gears correspond one-to-one with the drums 210f and are connected by transmission. The two output gears rotate synchronously so that the two drums 210f rotate synchronously, thereby ensuring that the multiple lifting points are raised and lowered synchronously during the lifting process.

[0314] Specifically, the gearbox 330f is equipped with an input gear and two output gears. The input gear is connected to the first drive unit 310f through the reducer 320f to input power. The two output gears have the same structural parameters and mesh with the input gear to rotate synchronously, thereby providing synchronous rotation power to the two drums 210f.

[0315] The synchronous output of gearbox 330f can synchronize the rotation of the two drums 210f, thereby achieving synchronous lifting and movement of the lifting points. When multiple lifting points are connected to the same second lifting device 04, the initial height of each lifting point can be adjusted to keep them consistent.

[0316] A protective housing can also be installed outside the gearbox 330f to prevent the transmission gears from being exposed. The synchronous output assembly (gearbox 330f) can also be other components that enable the drum 210f to rotate synchronously, such as a synchronous belt.

[0317] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, each of the two drums 210f is wound with two lifting ropes 230f, and each lifting rope 230f is provided with a movable pulley assembly 231f to form four lifting points. The four lifting points can be arranged symmetrically to ensure the balance of the center of gravity of the storage container 01.

[0318] Those skilled in the art will understand that by reasonably setting the number of drums 210f and lifting ropes 230f, the number of lifting points can be changed, achieving various lifting structure layouts such as 3 lifting points and 6 lifting points.

[0319] Combination Figure 24 The moving mechanism 100f is equipped with a support frame 302f, and a tie rod bolt 301f is connected to the support frame 302f. The first driving component 310f is connected to the tie rod bolt 301f. The tie rod bolt 301f enables the installation of the first driving component 310f, so that the drive shaft of the first driving component 310f is horizontally aligned with the axis of the gear in the gearbox 330f and the drum 210f, thus ensuring stable force distribution.

[0320] The support frame 302f and the moving mechanism 100f can be bolted together and fixed. The first driving component 310f can also be fixed in position through the mounting base that is fixedly connected to the moving mechanism 100f, and is not limited to the tie rod bolt 301f mentioned above.

[0321] To improve the stability of the storage container 01 during horizontal transport, the moving mechanism 100f is provided with a lifting device fixing frame 240f, which has a rigid connection hole. The second lifting device 04 is provided with a rigid connection part for embedding into the rigid connection hole during the lifting process and fitting against the inner wall of the rigid connection hole.

[0322] After the storage container 01 is hoisted, the second lifting device 04 is lifted by the drum 210f. The rigid connecting part of the second lifting device 04 is embedded in the rigid connecting hole to achieve circumferential limitation. During the transfer process, the second lifting device 04 cannot move horizontally due to the circumferential limitation of the rigid connecting hole, which avoids the instability caused by the flexible lifting rope 230f during the transfer process and reduces the risk of tilting and overturning of the storage container 01 during the hoisting process.

[0323] The lifting device fixing frame 240f can be a cylindrical structure with reinforcing ribs on its outer surface to improve structural strength. In the stopped state, the lifting rope 230f is wound onto the drum 210f, and the rigid connection part of the second lifting device 04 is embedded in the rigid connection hole. When lifting operations are required, the lifting rope 230f is lowered, the rigid connection part disengages from the rigid connection hole, and the storage container 01 can be lifted vertically over a long distance. After the storage container 01 is lifted, the lifting rope 230f lifts the storage container 01 until the rigid connection part of the second lifting device 04 is embedded in the rigid connection hole, and then the storage container 01 is horizontally transferred.

[0324] The rigid connection part fits into the inner wall of the rigid connection hole to ensure that the second lifting device 04 does not move horizontally relative to the lifting device fixing frame 240f during the transfer process. The flexible connection of the lifting rope 230f is changed to a rigid connection, which can realize the stable horizontal transfer of the storage container 01.

[0325] Combination Figure 23 and Figure 24 The second lifting device 04 is connected to each lifting point, and each lifting point is symmetrically arranged relative to the second lifting device 04. The synchronous lifting of multiple lifting points can drive the synchronous lifting of the second lifting device 04. The multiple lifting points and the lifting device fixing frame 240f are connected to the second lifting device 04 at multiple points, which can ensure the stability of the second lifting device 04 during lifting.

[0326] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the moving mechanism 100f includes a mounting beam 110f and a fixed bracket 120f. The mounting beam 110f is provided with rollers 114f and guide wheels 111f for rolling cooperation with the hoisting guide rail. The fixed bracket 120f is connected to the mounting beam 110f, and the hoisting mechanism 200f is disposed on the fixed bracket 120f.

[0327] like Figure 23 As shown, a first bracket 121f and a second bracket 122f are mounted on a fixed bracket 120f. A drum 210f is mounted on the first bracket 121f and the second bracket 122f, and a hoisting rope fastener 220f is mounted on the fixed bracket 120f. The gearbox 330f is bolted to the second bracket 122f, and both the first bracket 121f and the second bracket 122f are bolted to the fixed bracket 120f.

[0328] The second driving component 112f is mounted on the mounting beam 110f. Four rollers 114f are provided on one side of the mounting beam 110f. Two of the rollers 114f are directly driven by the second driving component 112f, and the other two are driven by the second driving component 112f. There are four guide wheels 111f, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the guide rail and roll in cooperation with the side wall of the hoisting guide rail for guidance.

[0329] The second driving component 112f is a drive motor, which can simultaneously drive two rollers 114f to rotate, thereby realizing the horizontal transfer of the storage container 01.

[0330] like Figure 23 As shown, an oil receiving tray 113f for receiving lubricating oil is provided on the mounting beam 110f. The oil receiving tray 113f is located below the second drive component 112f to prevent oil from falling and contaminating the storage container 01.

[0331] To improve the load-bearing capacity of the second hoisting trolley 10f, two symmetrically arranged installation beams 110f are installed, each slidingly connected to a hoisting rail. The two installation beams 110f are connected by a fixed bracket 120f.

[0332] The connecting seat 130f and the two mounting beams 110f can be bolted together, while the mounting beams 110f and the fixing bracket 120f can be welded together. The mounting beams 110f can be made of structural steel, and the lifting guide rail can be a structural steel track.

[0333] The second drive component 112f corresponding to the two mounting beams 110f can be synchronously controlled to drive rotation, so as to realize the synchronous operation of the two tracks and improve the stability of the hoisting and transportation process.

[0334] To prevent the second hoisting trolley 10f from colliding with the end of the hoisting guide rail, an end anti-collision block 101f is provided at the end of the connecting seat 130f along the moving direction of the moving mechanism 100f to reduce impact. The end anti-collision block 101f can also be a buffer rubber pad to buffer the impact force when the second hoisting trolley 10f moves to the end of the hoisting guide rail.

[0335] Combination Figure 29 and Figure 31 The transport vehicle 10h includes a transport vehicle body 100h and a transport track 200h. The transport vehicle body 100h moves along the transport track 200h, driving the storage container 01 between the storage unit 110e and the lifting hole facing the loading room. To achieve automated transport, the transport vehicle 10h also includes a control device 300h, which controls the transport actions of the transport vehicle body 100h. The transport vehicle 10h can control the movement of the transport vehicle body 100h along the track via the control device 300h, achieving automated transport of the storage container 01, improving transport efficiency and automation level, and saving labor and time costs.

[0336] like Figure 29 As shown, in order to store the storage container 01, a fixing frame 110h is provided on the transport vehicle body 100h, and the fixing frame 110h forms a storage shelf position for placing the storage container 01. During transportation, the storage container 01 is placed on the storage shelf position, and the fixing frame 110h can limit the storage container 01 in the horizontal direction to prevent the storage container 01 from tipping over during transportation.

[0337] To further secure the positions of the mounting bracket 110h and the storage container 01, the transport vehicle body 100h is equipped with a clamping device 120h and a floating slide 140h. The clamping device 120h is used to clamp the storage container 01. The storage container 01 is placed on the floating slide 140h, and the floating slide 140h rolls in conjunction with the transport vehicle body 100h to adjust the position of the storage container 01 in coordination with the clamping action of the clamping device 120h.

[0338] Combination Figure 29The clamping device 120h is set on the fixed frame 110h, and the clamping device 120h is a positioning motor set on the fixed frame 110h. The output end of the positioning motor faces the storage rack position to clamp and position the storage container 01.

[0339] The positioning motors can be symmetrically arranged at both ends of the fixed frame 110h. Figure 29 In this system, one storage rack position corresponds to four positioning motors, and the four positioning motors are respectively set on the four side walls of the storage rack position to achieve centering and positioning of the storage container 01, so as to clamp the storage container 01 between the fixed frame 110h and achieve centering, improve the stability of the transfer of the storage container 01, and facilitate the accurate positioning of automatic storage and retrieval.

[0340] In another specific embodiment of the present invention, the positioning motor is arranged on one side, thereby pressing the storage container 01 against one side of the fixing frame 110h. After transportation to the designated location, the positioning motor releases the storage container 01, which can then be removed by equipment such as a hoisting device. The clamping action of the positioning motor is controlled by the control device 300h. The clamping function of the clamping device 120h can also be achieved through other structural forms, such as a top rod assembly.

[0341] The floating slide 140h is set at the bottom of the storage rack position. The floating slide 140h and the transport vehicle 100h roll together. The transport storage container 01 is placed on the floating slide 140h. With the clamping device 120h clamping, the storage container 01 drives the floating slide 140h to move within the storage rack position.

[0342] Specifically, the upper surface of the floating slide 140h is provided with multiple positioning support blocks for supporting the storage container 01, and the lower surface is provided with multiple balls for rolling cooperation with the transport vehicle body. Multiple push rods are provided on the bottom side wall of the fixed frame 110h to push the side wall of the floating slide 140h to limit the floating slide 140h and automatically restore the floating slide 140h to the center position after the storage container 01 is moved out.

[0343] To improve transfer efficiency, multiple storage racks, such as two, are installed on the fixed rack 110h. A floating slide 140h is installed at the bottom of each storage rack to assist the positioning motor in automatically centering the storage container 01.

[0344] After the transport vehicle 10h has been used, in order to park the transport vehicle 100h on the transport track, the transport vehicle 10h disclosed in this embodiment of the invention also includes a parking device 400h. The parking device 400h includes a fixing member 411h and a parking component. The parking device 400h is set on the ground, and the fixing member 411h has a limit hole. The parking component includes a driving member and a limit rod. The driving member is set on the transport vehicle 100h and is kinetically connected to the limit rod to drive the limit rod through the limit hole to perform the parking action. The driving member can be controlled by the control device 300h.

[0345] The fixing component 411h can be installed on the ground at the end of the transport track 200h via the fixing seat 410h, serving as a parking position. The fixing component 411h can be a plate-like structure, and the parking component is located inside the transport vehicle body 100h. When the transport vehicle body 100h moves to the parking position, the fixing component 411h extends into the transport vehicle body 100h, and the control device 300h controls the drive component to drive the limit rod, so that the limit rod is inserted into the limit hole, realizing automatic parking. When the transport vehicle body 100h needs to be used for transportation, the limit rod is controlled to disengage from the limit hole, and the transport vehicle body 100h can move freely on the transport track 200h.

[0346] like Figure 30 As shown, a reinforcing rib 412h is also provided on the fixing seat 410h. The reinforcing rib 412h is connected to the fixing member 411h to improve the structural strength.

[0347] Those skilled in the art will understand that the interchange of the positions of the fixing member 411h and the parking member (i.e., the fixing member 411h is set on the transport vehicle body 100h, and the parking member is set on the transport track 200h) will not affect the parking function. The parking device 400h can also be of other structural forms, such as designing the parking member as a gripper structure. When the transport vehicle body 100h moves to the parking position and the fixing member 411h extends between the two grippers, the grippers clamp the fixing member 411h under the drive of the drive member, thereby stopping the transport vehicle body 100h. When the transport vehicle body 100h needs to be used for transportation, the grippers can be controlled to release the fixing member 411h.

[0348] The fixed base 410h can be installed at the end of the transport track 200h for convenient parking, and the driving component can be a drive motor. The drive motor can be controlled by the control device 300h. The power distribution box 130h installed on the transport vehicle body 100h can supply power to the transport action of the transport vehicle body 100h and the clamping action of the clamping device 120h.

[0349] like Figure 29 As shown, the transport vehicle body 100h is equipped with multiple transport rollers 150h that roll in coordination with the transport track 200h. Figure 29The document shows eight rubber rollers, symmetrically arranged on the transport vehicle body 100h.

[0350] To ensure that the transport vehicle 100h runs along the transport track 200h without derailing, a guide device 160h is installed on the transport vehicle 100h. The guide device 160h consists of multiple guide wheels that roll in cooperation with the side wall of the transport track 200h. The guide wheels can be rubber wheels.

[0351] Combination Figure 31 and Figure 32 The transport track 200h includes two parallel guide rails 201h, each set within a track groove in the ground. The cross-section of each guide rail 201h is I-shaped. Guide wheels are attached to the two side walls of each guide rail 201h to guide movement and prevent the transport vehicle 100h from derailing. Along the transport direction, guiding devices can be installed at the front and rear ends of the transport vehicle 100h to ensure guidance during both forward and reverse movement.

[0352] Depending on the different forms of the transport track 200h, the guide device 160h can be designed in various forms, such as a roller groove on the rigid transport roller 150h. During transportation, the guide track 201h is embedded in the roller groove to achieve guidance and prevent derailment.

[0353] To facilitate track laying according to the actual site conditions, the transport track 200h consists of multiple track units, with adjacent track units connected together. The modular structure of the track units allows for easy adjustment of the length of the transport track 200h to suit specific needs; specifically, adjacent track units can be overlapped or bolted together.

[0354] The control device 300h can control the transport vehicle 10h to achieve automatic transfer and conveying of storage container 01. The control device 300h can be installed on a control cabinet, which can be installed on the ground at the end of the transport track 200h.

[0355] In order to remove impurities from the surface of the storage container 01, the fuel supply system disclosed in this embodiment of the invention further includes a dust removal device 10i. The dust removal device 10i is disposed on the transfer path of the transfer device, and the dust removal device 10i forms a first through channel 201i through which the storage container 01 passes. The dust removal channel is provided with a jetting airflow that can remove impurities from the surface of the storage container 01.

[0356] Specifically, such as Figure 33As shown, the dust removal device 10i disclosed in this embodiment of the invention includes an air supply box 200i and an air supply device 100i. The air supply box 200i is provided with the aforementioned first through-hole 201i, and the air supply box 200i has an air outlet 202i facing the first through-hole 201i. The air outlet of the air supply device 100i is connected to the air supply box 200i and is used to provide a purging airflow to the air supply box 200i.

[0357] During the impurity removal process, the storage container 01 passes through the first through-hole 201i, and the purging airflow provided by the air supply device 100i can be blown from the air outlet 202i of the air supply box 200i towards the first through-hole 201i, thereby achieving automatic removal of impurities from the surface of the storage container 01. The dust removal device 10i disclosed in this embodiment of the invention can not only achieve automatic removal of impurities from the surface of the storage container 01, but also, by setting the dust removal device 10i on the transfer path of the storage container 01, can achieve simultaneous operation of transfer and dust removal operations, thereby improving operational efficiency.

[0358] The air supply device 100i can be a fan.

[0359] In order to guide the purging airflow, the dust removal device 10i disclosed in this invention also includes a return air box 300i. The return air box 300i has a return air inlet and a guide air inlet. The return air inlet is connected to the first through channel 201i, and the guide air inlet is connected to the air inlet of the air supply device 100i, so as to realize the circulation of the purging airflow through the negative pressure suction of the air supply device 100i.

[0360] like Figure 33 As shown, the guide air outlet is connected to the air inlet of the air supply device 100i, meaning that the purge airflow provided by the air supply device 100i can return to the air supply device 100i for recycling after passing through the first through-hole 201i. Furthermore, a filter 400i is installed between the return air box 300i and the air supply device 100i. The filter 400i can filter impurities and harmful substances in the purge airflow, ensuring the purity of the purge airflow provided by the air supply device 100i.

[0361] A filter element for filtering impurities can also be added inside the return air box 300i.

[0362] The air supply device 100i and the filter 400i can be connected via a third fastening assembly 410i, which includes a connecting bolt and a sealing gasket. The sealing gasket is disposed between the air supply device 100i and the filter 400i to achieve a sealed connection between the two.

[0363] Furthermore, a return air duct 310i is connected between the air vent and the filter 400i. The return air duct 310i is connected to the filter 400i via a first fastening assembly 311i, which includes a connecting bolt and a sealing gasket. The sealing gasket is positioned between the return air duct 310i and the filter 400i to achieve a sealed connection between them. The return air duct 310i and the air vent can be welded together.

[0364] To ensure the circulation effect of the purging airflow, the return air box 300i is arranged parallel to the supply air box 200i, and there are two return air boxes 300i along the extension direction of the first through-hole 201i, symmetrically connected to both ends of the supply air box 200i. Figure 33 As shown, the return air box 300i and the supply air box 200i are three parallel and independent layers. The supply air box 200i is located in the middle, and the return air boxes 300i are located at both ends.

[0365] The return air box 300i forms a second through-hole through which the storage container 01 passes. The second through-hole is connected to the first through-hole 201i, and the return air box 300i is connected to the supply air box 200i. Figure 33 As shown, the return air box 300i and the supply air box 200i are connected by multiple connectors 220i to ensure the reliability of the connection. The connectors 220i can be fasteners such as connecting bolts.

[0366] To prevent impurities from accumulating in the return air box 300i after prolonged operation, the return air box 300i is equipped with a dust collection port 301i for dust removal. For example... Figure 34 As shown, there are multiple dust removal ports 301i located on the outer wall of the return air box 300i. By opening the dust removal ports 301i, impurities inside the return air box 300i can be cleaned periodically.

[0367] An air supply duct 210i is connected to the air supply device 100i and the air supply box 200i. The air supply duct 210i is connected to the air supply device 100i via a second fastening assembly 211i. The second fastening assembly 211i includes a connecting bolt and a sealing gasket. The sealing gasket is disposed between the air supply duct 210i and the air supply device 100i to achieve a sealed connection between the two. The air supply box 200i and the air supply duct 210i can be welded together.

[0368] The aforementioned storage container 01 can be a fuel storage container (fuel storage tank) used in high-temperature gas-cooled reactors.

[0369] The cross-sections of the first through-hole 201i and the second through-hole can be designed into different shapes according to the shape of the storage container 01, such as square cross-section, circular cross-section, etc., as long as the storage container 01 can pass through.

[0370] In order to enable automatic cleaning of the fuel storage container 01 used for high-temperature gas-cooled reactors before use, the cross-section of the first through-hole 201i can be designed to be square, and correspondingly, the cross-section of the second through-hole is also square.

[0371] The fuel storage container 01, which is lifted by the hoisting device, can pass through the first through-hole 201i and the second through-hole, and impurities are removed during the passage.

[0372] like Figure 34 As shown, the return air box 300i and the supply air box 200i can be designed as rectangular box structures.

[0373] To ensure reliable removal of impurities, multiple air outlets 202i are evenly arranged around the first through-hole 201i. Correspondingly, multiple return air outlets are evenly arranged around the second through-hole to ensure uniform return of the purging airflow.

[0374] like Figure 33 As shown, the air distribution element 203i installed inside the air supply box 200i allows the purging airflow provided by the air supply device 100i to reach all parts of the air supply box 200i evenly, and is evenly blown into the first through-hole 201i through each air outlet 202i for dust removal. The air distribution element 203i can be an air distribution plate.

[0375] When using the dust removal equipment 10i disclosed in this embodiment of the invention for dust removal, the air supply device 100i is turned on, and the purging airflow enters the air inlet box 200i through the air supply duct 210i, and then enters the first through-hole 201i through the air outlet 202i of the air inlet box 200i to clean impurities. The cleaned airflow enters the return air box 300i through the return air inlet of the return air box 300i through the second through-hole, and flows to the filter 400i through the air guide outlet and the return air duct 310i, and finally returns to the air supply device 100i, realizing the circulation of the purging airflow. During this process, the storage container 01 passes through the first through-hole 201i and the impurities attached to its surface are carried away by the purging airflow.

[0376] Combination Figure 1The transport track 200h of the transport vehicle 10h starts from the room where the external transport vehicle is located, passes through the storage warehouse where the storage rack 10e is located, and extends to the lower room of the loading room. The external transport vehicle transports the storage container 01 to the initial position, where the transport vehicle 10h waits. The storage container 01 is transferred to the transport vehicle 10h by the first hoisting crane 03 and the first lifting device 10g. The transport vehicle 10h transports the storage container 01 to the pre-stored storage rack 10e, and the first hoisting crane 03 and the first lifting device 10g place the storage container 01 from the transport vehicle 10h into the corresponding storage rack 10e. The storage process is completed by storing the empty containers in the storage rack 110h of the transport vehicle 10h to save time. To save time, two storage rack positions can be set on the fixed frame 110h of the transport vehicle 10h. The first hoisting crane 03 and the first lifting device 10g in the storage warehouse can lift the empty storage containers in the storage rack 10e to the empty storage rack position in the transport vehicle 10h. Then, the full storage container 01 on the transport vehicle 10h is placed into the pre-stored storage rack 10e. The transport vehicle 10h carries the empty storage container to the initial position of the external transport vehicle, and the first hoisting crane 03 and the first lifting device 10g at this position lift the empty storage container onto the external transport vehicle to complete the outbound operation of the empty storage container 01.

[0377] During loading, the transport vehicle 10h first runs to the vicinity of the storage rack 10e where the pre-loaded storage container 01 is located. The first hoisting crane 03 and the first lifting device 10g here hoist the storage container 01 stored in the storage rack 10e onto the transport vehicle 10h. The transport vehicle 10h then moves the storage container 01 to below the loading room 02 (the loading room 02 is vertical and located above the warehouse). The floor of the loading room 02 has a hoisting hole. The second hoisting crane 10f, located at the top of the loading room 02, lowers the second lifting device 04 through the hoisting hole until it is clamped to the storage container 01 on the transport vehicle 10h. After clamping, the storage container 01 is lifted. During the lifting process, the second lifting device 04 and the storage container 01 pass through the dust removal equipment 10i and remove surface impurities. After being lifted to the loading room 02, the second lifting crane 10f and the second lifting device 04 drive the storage container 01 to the loading position of the tilting device 10b for opening. During the opening process, the connector 07 and the container cover are stored in the connector storage and retrieval bin 10d. After the opening is completed, the tilting device 10b lifts and tilts the storage container 01 for discharge. The poured-out spherical components enter the guide single-row platform 10c and are discharged in a single row. The discharged spherical components are lifted to the required height by the lifting device 05 and lead to the downstream channel, completing the automated loading process.

[0378] After the empty storage container 01 has completed the loading operation, it returns to the loading position of the tilting device 10b for capping. Then, it is lifted by the second hoisting crane 10f and the second lifting device 04 onto the fixed frame 110h of the transport vehicle 10h in the lower room. The transport vehicle 10h moves it to the vicinity of the designated storage rack 10e, and then the first hoisting crane 03 and the first lifting device 10g in the storage warehouse place the empty storage container 01 from the transport vehicle 10h into the corresponding storage rack 10e for storage, awaiting subsequent outbound operations. The second lifting device 04 is different from the first lifting device 10g. To ensure the cleanliness of the loading room 02 and reduce impurities during the loading process, a hoisting hole cover device 06 is installed at the hoisting hole to achieve a sealed loading room 02.

[0379] The fuel supply system disclosed in this invention can automate the entire process from storage and transfer of fuel storage container 01 to opening and loading operations and delivery, thereby enabling fuel supply to high-temperature gas-cooled reactors.
