Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of bulk-to-container loading, and in particular to an automatic loading device and method for bulk-to-container loading. Background Art

[0002] Bulk cargo terminals often receive requests from owners to switch from water transport to road transport. In the current environment of green environmental protection, cost reduction, efficiency improvement and sustainable development, container transportation of bulk cargo is imperative.

[0003] At present, there are two conventional ways of converting bulk into container. The first is that the gantry crane or ship unloader grabs the materials through the grab bucket and unloads them into the funnel. Then the materials are concentrated into the dump truck through the funnel mouth, and unloaded into the ground belt conveyor at the rear by the truck. The ground belt conveyor unloads the materials into the container, and then the container is loaded into the container truck for road transportation. The second is that the gantry crane or ship unloader grabs the materials through the grab bucket and unloads them into the funnel. Then the materials are concentrated into the ground belt conveyor under the funnel through the funnel mouth. The ground belt conveyor unloads the materials into the container, and then the container is loaded into the container truck for road transportation.

[0004] There are many problems with these two traditional container loading methods, mainly reflected in the cumbersome transfer of materials from unloading ships to containers, which leads to material leakage and contamination during the transfer process, increasing raw material losses. At the same time, multiple transfers and equipment use bring more failure points and subsequent maintenance difficulties, especially when the transportation requirements of different materials vary greatly. Existing methods usually rely on multiple intermediate links, such as funnels, dump trucks, ground conveyors, etc., resulting in low transportation efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to ensure material safety and reduce losses while adapting to the transportation needs of different materials, unify the transportation system, and thereby improve the efficiency of bulk-to-container transportation, the present application provides an automatic loading device and method for bulk-to-container transportation.

[0006] The present application provides an automatic loading device for bulk to container loading, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An automatic loading device for converting bulk into containerized goods comprises a support frame, a plurality of weighing sensors are installed on the top of the support frame, the plurality of weighing sensors jointly support a mounting frame, a funnel is installed on the mounting frame, two vertical frames are arranged inside the support frame, the two vertical frames are slidably provided with sliding shafts, the sliding shafts can slide along the height direction of the vertical frames, the two sliding shafts are jointly hinged with a flip frame, a plurality of clamps are arranged on the flip frame, the flip frame and the vertical frame are jointly provided with an adjusting component, the adjusting component is used to control the lifting and flipping of the flip frame, so that the feed end of the container connected to the flip frame is aligned with the discharge port of the funnel.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the transport vehicle reverses into the support, then the clamp on the flip frame clamps the container, the adjustment component controls the flip frame to rise, so that the container is separated from the transport vehicle, and then the adjustment component controls the flip frame to flip, so that the feed end of the container is aligned with the discharge port of the funnel, the container door is opened, and then the funnel is loaded with materials. The weighing sensor measures the weight of the material. When the material reaches the loading weight requirement, the loading is stopped and the funnel is opened to load the container;

[0009] During the loading process of the container, another automatic loading device for converting bulk into container can be controlled to flip the container for loading, which reduces the waiting time in the middle of the transport vehicle. After the container is loaded, the container door is closed, the adjustment component controls the tipping frame to flip to the initial angle, the transport vehicle moves into the support frame again, and the tipping frame is lowered by the adjustment component. After the container falls on the transport vehicle, the clamp is released from the clamping state, completing the automatic loading of the container.

[0010] The materials do not need to be transferred multiple times, which reduces the intermediate links. The materials can directly enter the container smoothly through the funnel, avoiding the leakage and pollution problems caused by secondary or multiple transfers, and ensuring that the materials can be loaded into the container completely and effectively;

[0011] By removing multiple switching links and devices, potential failure points are reduced, thereby improving system stability.

[0012] During the loading process, the weighing sensor measures the weight of the material in the container in real time. When the material reaches the predetermined weight, the loading stops automatically. This process can be adjusted according to the transportation requirements of different materials, because the loading weight requirements for each material may be different. Weighing sensors can be used to set different loading standards according to the characteristics of different materials (such as density, weight, volume, etc.); when the container is loaded, another automatic bulk loading device can work together to realize box turning and loading, reduce vehicle waiting time, and can also be adjusted according to the characteristics of different materials. For example, if the material is lighter, the box turning speed of the loading device can be increased; if the material is heavier, the speed needs to be slowed down to ensure the safety and accuracy of the loading and unloading process, so that the equipment can automatically adapt to the transportation requirements of different materials, improve loading efficiency, and ensure the safety and accuracy of materials during transportation.

[0060] During the transportation of bulk to container, the driving wheel 31 first drives the vertical frame 3, the main frame 41 and the auxiliary frame 42 to extend out of the support frame 1, and the transport vehicle reverses into the space between the two vertical frames 3, and then the two first hydraulic cylinders 51 are simultaneously activated to extend and retract, driving the two auxiliary frames 42 to move relative to each other at the same time, so that the length of the main frame 41 and the auxiliary frame 42 is adapted to the length of the container. Then the fourth hydraulic cylinder 61 is extended and retracted to drive the clamping plate 62 to move closer to the auxiliary frame 42, so that the part of the clamping plate 62 at the bottom of the auxiliary frame 42 can be pressed against the side wall of the container, and the four clamping plates 62 are pressed against the side of the container at the same time to clamp the container.

[0061] Then the second hydraulic cylinder 71 extends to drive the sliding shaft 33 to lift, and then the sliding shaft 33 drives the main frame 41, the auxiliary frame 42, the sliding sleeve 74 and the container to lift, so that the container is separated from the transport vehicle;

[0062] Then the driving wheel 31 drives the stand 3 to move, so that the container is transported into the support frame 1, and then the third hydraulic cylinder 72 retracts to drive the main frame 41 to flip, thereby realizing a 90-degree flip of the container, so that the feed end of the container is aligned with the discharge port of the funnel 22;

[0063] Then the second motor 91 drives the first screw 92 to rotate, so that the first screw 92 drives the transverse plate 93 to move, so that the transverse plate 93 drives the finger cylinder 910 to face the latch on the container, and then the hydraulic cylinder 99 drives the finger cylinder 910 to be located directly above the latch, and then the third motor 95 drives the second screw 96 to rotate, and the second screw 96 drives the second lifting plate 98 to descend, so that the finger cylinder 910 is close to the latch, and then the finger cylinder 910 clamps the latch, and the hydraulic cylinder 99 drives the finger cylinder 910 to move, so that the latch can be pulled out of the container door, and the container door is automatically unlocked. (Before the container is turned over, the latch has been manually rotated to separate the latch's buckle hole from the buckle on the container);

[0064] Then the electromagnetic clutch 83 is started, and then the first motor 81 is started. The first motor 81 controls the fifth hydraulic cylinder 82 to face the container door, and then the fifth hydraulic cylinder 82 extends until the electromagnetic suction cup 84 is in contact with the container door. Then the first motor 81 stops operating and the electromagnetic clutch 83 is disconnected. Then the electromagnetic suction cup 84 is energized to be adsorbed on the container door, and the fifth hydraulic cylinder 82 retracts the container door to flip it, thereby realizing the automatic opening of the container door.

[0065] Then, the material is loaded into the hopper 22, and the weighing sensor 11 measures the weight of the material. When the material reaches the required loading weight, the loading is stopped, the motor controls the opening and closing door, and the hopper 22 is opened to load the material into the container.

[0066] During the loading process of the container, another automatic loading device for bulk-to-container can be operated to turn over the container and load the materials, thus reducing the waiting time between transport vehicles;

[0067] After the loading of the container is completed, the fifth hydraulic cylinder 82 extends to close the container door, the finger cylinder 910 grabs the latch and reinserts it into the container, then the electromagnetic suction cup 84 releases the adsorption effect, the electromagnetic clutch 83 restarts, the first motor 81 controls the fifth hydraulic cylinder 82 to rotate, so that the electromagnetic suction cup 84 is away from the container door, the third hydraulic cylinder 72 controls the flip frame 4 to flip to the initial angle, the driving wheel 31 drives the vertical frame 3, the main frame, the support frame and the container to extend out of the support frame 1 again, the transport vehicle moves the loading position again, the second hydraulic cylinder 71 starts the falling flip frame 4, after the container falls on the transport vehicle, the fourth hydraulic cylinder 61 drives the clamping plate 62 away from the container, releases the clamping state, and completes the automatic loading of the container.

[0068] The materials do not need to be transferred multiple times, which reduces the intermediate links. The materials can directly enter the container smoothly through the funnel 22, avoiding the leakage and pollution problems caused by secondary or multiple transfers, and ensuring that the materials can be completely and effectively loaded into the container;

[0069] By removing multiple switching links and devices, potential failure points are reduced, thereby improving system stability.

[0070] During the loading process, the weighing sensor 11 measures the weight of the material in the container in real time. When the material reaches the predetermined weight, the loading stops automatically. This process can be adjusted according to the transportation requirements of different materials, because the loading weight requirements of each material may be different. Through the weighing sensor 11, different loading standards can be set according to the characteristics of different materials (such as density, weight, volume, etc.); when the container is loaded, another bulk cargo automatic loading device can work together to realize the loading of the container, reduce the waiting time of the vehicle, and can also be adjusted according to the characteristics of different materials. For example, if the material is lighter, the loading device can speed up the turning speed of the container; if the material is heavier, it is necessary to slow down the speed to ensure the safety and accuracy of the loading and unloading process, so that the equipment can automatically adapt to the transportation requirements of different materials, improve the loading efficiency, and ensure the safety and accuracy of the materials during transportation.
