Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bulk grain bin filling equipment, and specifically to an intelligent bin filling robot. Background Art
[0002] The square bin is the dominant bin type in the grain storage industry, and its bin capacity accounts for about 85% of the total storage capacity of the storage and handling bins. The bulk grain filling into the square bin is an essential operation link. Therefore, when filling bulk grain into the bin, a conveying device is generally required to send the bulk grain into the square bin.
[0003] The devices currently used for bulk grain bin filling generally adopt the belt conveying method. By adding bulk grain onto the belt and then conveying the bulk grain to the required position through the belt. If the conveying device is not moved during the conveying process, the bulk grain will accumulate in one place, forming a heap. If the position of the conveying device needs to be adjusted, only the staff can push the conveying device to change its position. There are also some people who think of installing a driving mobile base under the conveying device and controlling the movement of the mobile base to change the position of the conveying device. However, these bin filling devices all have a common drawback, that is, the degree of automation is low, and it is easy to form heaps, and the practicality is very poor. Summary of the Invention

When the third conveying frame 103 expands and contracts, the second roller 1023 will roll, improving the stability of the expansion and contraction of the third conveying frame 103.
[0034] Working principle: During use, by conveying the bulk grain onto the belt 6, and at the same time the belt 6 rotates on the driving roller 1012, the tensioning roller 1013, the first driving roller 1011, the second driving roller 1014, the third driving roller 1021, the fourth driving roller 1022, the fifth driving roller 1031 and the sixth driving roller 1032 to convey the bulk grain. During this process, the driving motor 5 drives the conveying line 1 to rotate. The conveying line 1 uses the first distance sensor 9 and the second distance sensor 10 to detect the distance between the conveying line 1 and the inner wall of the square silo during rotation. When the detected distance reaches the preset value, the first distance sensor 9 and the second distance sensor 10 feedback the information to the control processor 18. When the control processor 18 receives the signals from the first distance sensor 9 and the second distance sensor 10, it will start the driving motor 5 to output in the reverse direction, driving the conveying line 1 to rotate in the reverse direction. Repeating this process makes the driving motor 5 drive the conveying line 1 to rotate back and forth, evenly spreading the bulk grain in the square silo. At the same time, the fourth distance sensor 12 is used to continuously detect the height of the piled bulk grain. When the piled bulk grain reaches the preset value, the fourth distance sensor 12 feeds back the detected information to the control processor 18. The control processor 18 uses this to start the third electric telescopic rod 15, causing the third electric telescopic rod 15 to push the first conveying frame 101, making the first conveying frame 101, the second conveying frame 102 and the third conveying frame 103 tilt up. At the same time, the first conveying frame 101 rotates on the bearing seat 202 to change the feeding height of the conveying frame. And when the height of the bulk material reaches the maximum value, the control processor 18 will start the walking chassis 3, causing the walking chassis 3 to retreat and continue to convey the bulk grain, so as to evenly spread the bulk grain in the square silo.
[0035] The device can also activate the first electric telescopic rod 13 to make the first electric telescopic rod 13 push the second conveyor rack 102, so that the second conveyor rack 102 slides within the first conveyor rack 101, reducing the distance between the second driving roller 1014 and the third driving roller 1021, and at the same time, the conveyor line 1 elongates. Similarly, activate the second electric telescopic rod 14 to make the second electric telescopic rod 14 push the third conveyor rack 103, so that the third conveyor rack 103 slides within the second conveyor rack 102, reducing the distance between the fourth driving roller 1022 and the fifth driving roller 1031, and at the same time, the conveyor line 1 elongates, so as to be applicable to square bins of different specifications. The third sensor 11 provided can detect whether there are obstacles in front of the protective cover 7. If the third detection sensor 11 detects an obstacle in front, the control processor 18 can be used to shorten the length of the conveyor line 1 to prevent the conveyor line 1 from colliding.
