When the auxiliary lifting ear 4 is subjected to an upward force, the baffle 2 is opened under the action of the transmission mechanism, and when the auxiliary lifting ear 4 is not subjected to a force, the baffle 2 is closed under the action of the transmission mechanism.

[0031] In actual use, the excavated slag bucket can be transported to the jacking well by the hoisting equipment, and then the auxiliary lifting lug 4 is forced upward by the hoisting equipment to open the baffle 2 for discharge; after the discharge is completed, the baffle 2 will automatically close under the action of the transmission mechanism by simply stopping the force applied to the auxiliary lifting lug 4. The whole process does not require manual intervention, which is convenient and safe.

[0032] The transmission mechanism includes: a drum assembly 5 fixed on the outer wall of the box body 1, a wire rope 6 wound on the drum assembly 5, a screw rod 7 rotatably arranged on the outer wall of the box body 1 at both ends, a moving block 8 threadedly sleeved on the screw rod 7, a connecting rod 9 hinged to the moving block 8 at one end and hinged to the side wall of the baffle 2 at the other end, and a transmission assembly 10 arranged between the drum assembly 5 and the screw rod 7, and the auxiliary lifting ear 4 is connected to the wire rope 6.
