Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of molten iron handling equipment, and more particularly to a wireless charging system for molten iron transport vehicles. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, many steel companies involve long-distance molten iron transportation. Because the molten iron transport equipment itself lacks a power source, high-performance batteries are commonly installed on these vehicles to provide power. A key characteristic is that the vehicle's power supply must cover the entire travel area. When the travel distance is long and the molten iron ladle car needs to be charged at a specific location, manual plugging and unplugging of the plug is required to receive power. For example, the molten iron bending operation of torpedo ladle cars in steel mills requires manual plugging and unplugging, which prolongs the bending time, poses personnel safety risks, and increases workload.

[0003] Faced with this situation, people have designed various solutions. For example, the invention patent "An Automatic Power Supply Connection System and Connection Control for Torpedo Tank Cars" [Application No. CN 1116601082 A] proposes a special device that can automatically connect the power supply system. This device can effectively reduce the workload of manual operation and also has the characteristics of safety and remote control. The invention patent "An Automatic Connecting and Disconnecting Current Collector" [Authorization Announcement No. CN 215681189 U] proposes a power supply method that obtains electrical energy through a sliding contact line, which can also solve the power supply problem. Although the above methods generally have advantages such as simple structure, their success rate and safety are difficult to guarantee. With the development of intelligent transmission and information technology, especially the large-scale popularization of 5G signals, there is an urgent need for us to apply advanced intelligent technologies in molten iron transportation to improve the level of production and transportation.

[0004] Wireless charging systems require no manual operation, occupy no ground space, and can charge while stationary or moving, making them particularly suitable for medium-distance charging and environmentally friendly applications. Compared to other wired charging methods, they offer advantages such as safer operation, smarter charging, and more flexible configuration options, and are expected to reduce battery usage and energy consumption. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the technical problems mentioned in the background section, a wireless charging system for molten iron transport vehicles is provided. This invention transmits electrical energy wirelessly to molten iron transport equipment at a certain distance, thereby achieving the purpose of charging the molten iron tank car during transport.

[0006] The technical means employed in this invention are as follows: A wireless charging system for molten iron transport vehicles, comprising: At least one charging area is set up in the waiting area during the travel of molten iron transport vehicles; Each of the charging areas is equipped with a charging device and a sliding positioning pairing device; The molten iron transport vehicle is equipped with a fast-charging battery. The charging equipment, the sliding positioning pairing device, and the molten iron transport vehicle are all communicatively connected to the charging equipment control system.

[0007] Furthermore, when the molten iron transport vehicle enters the charging area, it sends a charging request to the charging equipment control system.

[0008] Furthermore, after receiving the charging request, the charging equipment control system sends a charging code to the molten iron transport vehicle and the sliding positioning pairing device respectively according to the system balance state.

[0009] Furthermore, after receiving the charging code, the sliding positioning pairing device automatically moves to a matching position with the molten iron transport vehicle and pairs with the charging code of the molten iron transport vehicle.

[0010] Furthermore, both the charging device and the fast-charging battery are equipped with an audible and visual alarm device, which is activated when charging begins and deactivated when charging ends.

[0011] Furthermore, the molten iron transport vehicle, once fully charged, leaves the charging area, and all onboard actions of the molten iron transport vehicle are completed within the charging area.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: This invention proposes a method for wirelessly charging the onboard batteries of molten iron transport vehicles, regardless of time or location. This method effectively solves the problem of frequent battery charging required on existing molten iron transport equipment, thereby improving energy efficiency and reducing power consumption. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Among them, 1 is the charging equipment; 2 is the charging equipment control system; and 3 is the sliding positioning pairing device. Detailed Implementation

[0017] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0019] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the present invention provides a wireless charging system for molten iron transport vehicles, comprising: at least one charging area set in the waiting area during the movement of the molten iron transport vehicle; each charging area is provided with a charging device and a sliding positioning pairing device; the molten iron transport vehicle is provided with a fast-charging battery; the charging device, the sliding positioning pairing device, and the molten iron transport vehicle are all communicatively connected to the charging device control system.

[0020] Charging areas are selected in the waiting areas of molten iron transport vehicles during their travel, and each charging area is equipped with charging equipment and sliding positioning pairing devices.

[0021] When the molten iron transport vehicle enters the charging area within the waiting zone, it sends a charging request to the charging equipment control system. Subsequently, the charging equipment control system sends a charging code to both the molten iron transport vehicle and the sliding positioning pairing device based on the system's balance status. Upon receiving the charging code, the sliding positioning device automatically moves to the appropriate position on the molten iron transport vehicle and pairs with the vehicle's charging code.

[0022] Once the charging code of the sliding positioning device is successfully paired with the charging code of the molten iron transport vehicle, both the transport vehicle and the sliding positioning device send a confirmation signal to the charging equipment control system. The control system then sends a charging command to the charging equipment to begin charging the fast-charging battery on the molten iron transport vehicle. Simultaneously, both the charging equipment and the charging battery on the molten iron transport vehicle activate audible and visual alarms to alert relevant operators. Once the battery is fully charged, it sends a special feedback signal to the charging equipment. Upon receiving this signal, the charging equipment stops charging the battery and simultaneously deactivates the audible and visual alarms.

[0023] Once fully charged, the molten iron transport vehicle leaves the charging area, where all its onboard actions are completed.
