[0036] In combination Figure 1 The side wall 100 of the UAE aggregate hopper car is a circular arc cladding structure, mainly comprising a side wall plate 110, an upper side beam 120 and a hopper ridge partition plate 130. The upper side beam 120 is fixed to one side of the top of the side wall plate 110, and the hopper ridge partition plate 130 is arranged on the other side of the side wall plate 110 and has an arc surface. The assembly method of the side wall plate 110 and the hopper ridge partition plate 130 is that the side wall plate 110 is successively wrapped from below to above along the arc surface of the hopper ridge partition plate 130, so that the inside of the side wall plate 110 is extruded in the height direction, and the outside of the side wall plate 110 is stretched, so that the stress gradually increases in the process of cladding, and finally the stress is concentrated at the cladding closing position, thereby increasing the assembly difficulty of the closing position.

[0037] It should be noted that there will be a closing gap 140 between the side wall plate 110 and the arc surface of the hopper ridge partition plate 130 before closing, and the closing step is to make the side wall plate 110 completely fit the arc surface of the hopper ridge partition plate 130.

[0038] In the related art, there are two methods commonly used for closing, one is pre-bending, which has high cost, long process and affects the welding quality, and the other is manual assembly by using a jack, but this method has low efficiency, high labor intensity, and each jack will fall when the stress is uneven, which is easy to cause safety hazards.

[0039] In order to solve the problems in the related art to some extent, the embodiments of the present application provide a hopper car side wall closing device and a hopper car side wall equipment. The hopper car side wall closing device is assembled to the hopper car side wall 100, and the driving assembly 220 is started, so that the closing of the side wall plate 110 can be realized, without pre-bending or closing by using a jack in advance. The operation is simple and the labor intensity is low, and there is no safety hazard, which greatly improves the production efficiency.

[0040] The present application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments:

[0041] In combination Figures 2-4 The embodiments of the present application provide a hopper car side wall closing device, which comprises a hoisting part and a closing mechanism 200. The hoisting part is used to hoist the closing mechanism 200, and the closing mechanism 200 comprises a main body 210 and a driving assembly 220. The main body 210 has a first end and a second end. The first end of the main body 210 is supported on the hopper ridge partition plate 130, and the second end is arranged above the upper side beam 120. The driving assembly 220 is arranged at the second end of the main body 210, and the driving end of the driving assembly 220 is in contact with the upper side beam 120. The driving assembly 220 can drive the upper side beam 120 to move towards the hopper ridge partition plate 130, so that the other side of the side wall plate 110 is fitted to the arc surface.

[0042] The closing mechanism 200 is used for closing operation, and the lifting member is used for lifting the closing mechanism 200. Since the side wall plate 110 is sequentially surrounded upwards along the arc surface of the funnel ridge partition plate 130 from bottom to top, the closing position is at the upper part of the side wall plate 110, that is, the closing mechanism 200 needs to act on the upper part of the side wall plate 110, so that the lifting member needs to lift the closing mechanism 200, so that the closing structure is assembled to the upper part of the funnel car side wall 100. Of course, during the whole closing operation of the closing mechanism 200, it needs to be kept in the lifted state all the time, and specifically, the lifting member can adopt a hand-operated hoist.

[0043] The main body 210 is the basic component of the closing mechanism 200 of the application, which can provide a mounting base for other at least partial components of the closing mechanism 200, and also can play a role in protecting other at least partial components of the closing mechanism 200. The first end of the main body 210 is supported on the funnel ridge partition plate 130 under the action of the lifting force of the lifting member, to a certain extent, avoiding the deformation of the funnel ridge partition plate 130 when being stressed. The driving assembly 220 is arranged at the second end of the main body 210, and the driving end of the driving assembly 220 is in contact with the upper side beam 120, so that the driving force can be transmitted to the upper side beam 120. The driving assembly 220 drives the upper side beam 120 to move towards the funnel ridge partition plate 130, and the upper side beam 120 drives the side wall plate 110 to move towards the funnel ridge partition plate 130. Since the upper side beam 120 is arranged at the top of one side of the side wall plate 110, the closing gap 140 is located at the upper part of the side wall plate 110, and there is a closing gap 140 between the other side of the side wall plate 110 corresponding to the upper side beam 120 and the arc surface of the funnel ridge partition plate 130. Therefore, the movement of the upper side beam 120 towards the funnel ridge partition plate 130 drives the side wall plate 110 to move towards the funnel ridge partition plate 130, so that the other side of the side wall plate 110 completely fits the arc surface of the funnel ridge partition plate 130, eliminating the closing gap 140, and thus completing the closing. That is, only by assembling the funnel car side wall closing device to the funnel car side wall 100 and starting the driving assembly 220, the closing of the side wall plate 110 can be realized, without pre-bending the side wall plate 110 or using a jack for closing.

[0044] The funnel car side wall closing device provided by the embodiment of the application cold-bends and forms the funnel ridge partition plate 130 and the side wall plate 110 together, which solves the problems of low production efficiency, high labor intensity and safety hazards in the process of batch production of the United Arab Emirates aggregate funnel car body when using traditional manual closing.

[0045] It should be noted that one side wall plate 110 needs to be assembled with a plurality of funnel ridge partition plates 130 arranged side by side. In order to ensure the closing effect of the side wall plate 110 and each funnel ridge partition plate 130, the side wall plate 110 and each funnel ridge partition plate 130 are closed by the closing device.

[0046] In some embodiments, the driving assembly 220 comprises a mounting base 221, a driving member 222 and a pressing head 223, the mounting base 221 is connected to the second end of the main body 210, the driving member 222 is mounted in the mounting base 221, the pressing head 223 is connected with the driving member 222, and the pressing head 223 is in contact with the upper side beam 120.

[0047] The mounting base 221 is used for mounting the driving member 222, so that the driving member 222 is stably connected to the main body 210; the pressing head 223 is connected with the driving end of the driving member 222, and is used for directly acting on the upper side beam 120, the pressing head 223 is in contact with the upper side beam 120, so that the contact area of the pressing head 223 and the upper side beam 120 can be increased, the upper side beam 120 is uniformly stressed, and the closing effect is improved.

[0048] In addition, the mounting base 221 can be provided with an ear 2211 to cooperate with a hoisting member to hoist.

[0049] Specifically, the driving member 222 can be an oil cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod, etc., and is not limited in this regard.

[0050] In some embodiments, the pressing head 223 has a first pressing surface 2231 and a second pressing surface 2232 arranged at an included angle, the first pressing surface 2231 is in contact with the top surface of the upper side beam 120, and the second pressing surface 2232 is in contact with the side surface of the upper side beam 120 away from the side wall plate 110.

[0051] That is, the pressing head 223 has two pressing surfaces in contact with the upper side beam 120, which can further increase the contact area of the pressing head 223 and the upper side beam 120, so that the upper side beam 120 is uniformly stressed, and the closing effect is improved.

[0052] Specifically, since the top surface of the upper side beam 120 can be perpendicular to the side surface, the first pressing surface 2231 and the second pressing surface 2232 are also arranged vertically.

[0053] In some embodiments, the main body 210 has an avoiding space 211 on the side relative to the side wall, and the avoiding space 211 is used for avoiding the side wall.

[0054] Since the hopper car side wall 100 is overall arc-shaped, the first end of the main body 210 is supported on the hopper ridge partition plate 130, and the second end is located above the hopper car side wall 100, therefore, the main body 210 on the side relative to the side wall necessarily needs the avoiding space 211 to avoid the hopper car side wall 100.

[0055] Specifically, the main body 210 is an arc-shaped structure, and it needs to be noted that the convex side of the arc-shaped structure is the outer side, and the concave side is the inner side. That is, the inner side of the main body 210 forms the avoiding space 211, and the arc-shaped structure is more strongly stressed and is not easy to deform. More specifically, the main body 210 can be a streamline open C-shaped half-box girder structure.

[0056] Of course, the main body 210 can also be an L-shaped structure, as long as the main body 210 is provided with a clearance space 211 on one side relative to the side wall, which is not limited.

[0057] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional width of the first end of the main body 210 is smaller than the cross-sectional width of the second end.

[0058] Since the driving assembly 220 is arranged at the second end of the main body 210, when the driving member 222 is powered, the second end of the main body 210 is relatively larger in stress, and the first end is relatively smaller in stress, so the required bending strength of the first end of the main body 210 can be smaller, and thus the cross-sectional width of the first end of the main body 210 can be smaller than the cross-sectional width of the second end.

[0059] In some embodiments, the main body 210 includes a plurality of connecting plates 213, a support assembly 230, and two main plates 212 arranged opposite to each other, the plurality of connecting plates 213 are arranged in a spaced manner between the two main plates 212, the funnel ridge partition plate 130 and the support assembly 230 are arranged between the two main plates 212, and the support assembly 230 is arranged at the first end of the main plate 212. The funnel ridge partition plate 130 has a process hole 131, and the support assembly 230 is supported on the top wall of the process hole 131.

[0060] The two main plates 212 are the basic components of the main body 210, the plurality of connecting plates 213 are arranged in a spaced manner between the two main plates 212, which can enhance the structural strength of the main body 210, the funnel ridge partition plate 130 and the support assembly 230 are arranged between the two main plates 212, and the support assembly 230 is arranged at the first end of the main plate 212. The support assembly 230 is supported on the top wall of the process hole 131, so as to realize that the first end of the main body 210 is supported on the funnel ridge partition plate 130.

[0061] In some embodiments, one or more connecting plates 213 of the plurality of connecting plates 213 are provided with a handrail hole 214, and the handrail hole 214 is arranged on the side of the connecting plate 213 away from the side wall plate 110.

[0062] The connecting plate 213 is provided with a handrail hole 214, and the handrail hole 214 is arranged on the side of the connecting plate 213 away from the side wall plate 110, so that when the closing mechanism 200 is installed on the hopper car side wall 100, the hand of the operator can be inserted into the handrail hole 214 to facilitate holding the closing mechanism 200.

[0063] Of course, the connecting plate 213 without the handrail hole 214 can also be provided with a lifting hole 215 for horizontal lifting of the closing mechanism 200. That is, the lifting lug 2211 on the mounting seat 221 is used for vertical lifting, and the lifting hole 215 on the connecting plate 213 is used for horizontal lifting. When the lifting height is not enough, the closing mechanism 200 is lifted out or lifted in horizontally.

[0064] In some embodiments, the supporting assembly 230 comprises a pin shaft 231 and a pulley 232, the pin shaft 231 is arranged through the two main plates 212 of the first end of the main body 210, and the pulley 232 is assembled on the pin shaft 231 and arranged between the two main plates 212, and the pulley 232 is supported on the top wall of the process hole 131.

[0065] The top wall of the process hole 131 is arc-shaped, and the outer periphery of the pulley 232 can be matched with the top wall of the process hole 131, so that the pulley 232 is attached to the top wall of the process hole 131, thereby uniformly stressing the top wall of the process hole 131 and ensuring the supporting effect of the pulley 232 on the funnel ridge partition plate 130. In other words, the top wall of the process hole 131 forms a supporting groove, and the pulley 232 is clamped into the supporting groove to support the funnel ridge partition plate 130.

[0066] In addition, when the driving member 222 is driven, the main body 210 will also change in angle, at which time the pulley 232 can slide on the top wall of the process hole 131 to avoid abrasion of the top wall of the process hole 131.

[0067] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the process hole 131 has a guide surface 132 connected with the top wall of the process hole 131, and the pulley 232 is clamped into the top of the process hole 131 after being slid into position on the guide surface 132.

[0068] The process hole 131 is an elongated hole, and the guide surface 132 is arc-shaped. When the closing mechanism 200 is installed, the pulley 232 can first slide on the guide surface 132, and then be clamped into the top of the process hole 131 after being slid into position, and be attached to the top wall of the process hole 131. In other words, the cooperation of the pulley 232 and the guide surface 132 can realize the positioning of the supporting assembly 230, so that the supporting assembly 230 is accurately positioned, and further prevent the funnel ridge partition plate 130 from deforming under stress.

[0069] In some embodiments, the outer periphery of the pulley 232 is provided with a groove 2321, and the groove 2321 is attached to the top wall of the process hole 131.

[0070] The groove 2321 is attached to the top wall of the process hole 131, which can make the pulley 232 more stable in attaching to the top wall of the process hole 131, and improve the supporting effect of the pulley 232 on the funnel ridge partition plate 130.

[0071] In some embodiments, the supporting assembly 230 further comprises a handle 233 arranged at one end of the pin shaft 231 to facilitate the operator to hold the pin shaft 231, thereby facilitating the assembly of the supporting assembly 230 on the process hole 131 of the funnel ridge partition plate 130 and the main plate 212 when the closing mechanism 200 is installed on the side wall 100 of the hopper car.

[0072] Specifically, the pin shaft 231 comprises a pin shaft body 2311 and a stopper 2312 arranged at both ends of the pin shaft body 2311, and the two main plates 212 are provided with connecting holes, the size of the connecting holes is greater than that of the stopper 2312, and the stopper 2312 is arranged outside the connecting holes on the same side.

[0073] The stopper 2312 surrounds the outer circumferential surface of the pin shaft body 2311, and since the size of the connecting hole is greater than that of the stopper 2312, the stopper 2312 can pass through the connecting hole, so that the connection and disassembly of the support assembly 230 on the main plate 212 can be realized; when the support assembly 230 is assembled on the main plate 212, under the action of gravity, the pin shaft body 2311 is located at the bottom wall of the connecting hole on the same side, and part of the stopper 2312 coincides with the main plate 212, so that under the limiting of the stopper 2312, the support assembly 230 can be prevented from being separated from the main plate 212. Of course, when the support assembly 230 needs to be disassembled, the support assembly 230 is slightly lifted, so that the stopper 2312 is located in the connecting hole on the same side, and then the stopper 2312 can be taken out of the connecting hole on the same side, so that the disassembly of the support assembly 230 is realized.

[0074] In some embodiments, a reinforcing ring 234 is arranged at the connecting hole.

[0075] The area where the main plate 212 is provided with the connecting hole has relatively weak structural strength, and therefore the reinforcing ring 234 can be arranged to enhance the structural strength. The reinforcing ring 234 is connected with the main plate 212, and can be arranged outside or inside the connecting hole, which is not limited.

[0076] Next, the assembly steps of the gondola car side wall closing device are described.

[0077] 1) The closing mechanism 200 is hoisted by a hoisting member and transported to the gondola car side wall 100 to be closed;

[0078] 2) One end of the support assembly 230 is assembled in the connecting hole on the same side, and the other end is separated from the connecting hole on the same side;

[0079] 3) The pulley 232 is aligned with the top wall of the process hole 131 of the gondola ridge partition plate 130 to support the gondola ridge partition plate 130, and the other end of the support assembly 230 is assembled in the connecting hole on the same side;

[0080] 4) The position of the pressure head 223 is adjusted to be attached to the upper side beam 120;

[0081] 5) The driving member 222 is started to perform cold bending forming closing, and the driving member 222 is closed until the side wall plate 110 is completely attached to the gondola ridge partition plate 130;

[0082] 6) Positioning welding is performed;

[0083] 7) disconnect one end of the support assembly 230 from the same side of the connecting hole, so that the closing mechanism 200 is disconnected from the side wall 100 of the hopper car, and the lifting member lifts the closing mechanism 200 away.

[0084] The hopper car side wall closing device provided by the application comprises a lifting member and a closing mechanism 200. The lifting member lifts the closing mechanism 200, so that the closing mechanism 200 can be stably assembled to the side wall 100 of the hopper car. The closing mechanism 200 comprises a main body 210 and a driving assembly 220. The first end of the main body 210 is supported on the hopper ridge bulkhead 130, and the second end is arranged above the upper side beam 120. The driving assembly 220 is arranged at the second end of the main body 210, and the driving end of the driving assembly 220 is in contact with the upper side beam 120. During the assembly process of the side wall plate 110 and the hopper ridge bulkhead 130, when closing is needed, the driving assembly 220 drives the upper side beam 120 to move towards the hopper ridge bulkhead 130 until the other side of the side wall plate 110 is attached to the curved surface, thereby completing the closing. That is, only the hopper car side wall closing device is assembled to the side wall 100 of the hopper car, and the driving assembly 220 is started, so that the closing of the side wall plate 110 can be realized. The side wall plate 110 does not need to be pre-bent or closed by a jack in advance. The operation is simple, the labor intensity is low, there is no safety hazard, and the production efficiency is greatly improved.
