Detailed Embodiment

[0024] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0025] The present utility model provides a docking and discharging device for barrel-shaped materials, which aims to automatically complete the process of material docking and discharging between barrel-shaped materials such as ton barrels, thereby reducing the manual labor intensity and improving the production efficiency.

[0026] As Figures 1-7 shown, the docking and discharging device for barrel-shaped materials includes a ton barrel fixing platform 1, a valve opening mechanism 2, and a docking mechanism 3. The ton barrel fixing platform 1 is used to firmly fix the ton barrel 4 to be discharged. The valve opening mechanism 2 is installed on the ton barrel fixing platform 1 and is used to automatically control the opening and closing of the discharge valve of the ton barrel 4 to be discharged. The docking mechanism 3 is located below the ton barrel fixing platform 1 and is connected to the platform 1, and is used to realize the docking between the ton barrel 4 to be discharged and the receiving ton barrel 5.

[0027] Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the ton barrel fixing platform 1 includes a first support frame 11 and a ton barrel positioning component. A limit railing 12 is provided on the first support frame 11, and one end of the railing is designed to be open, facilitating the placement of the ton barrel 4 to be discharged. The ton barrel positioning component is composed of a first positioning block 13 and a second positioning block 14, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the first support frame 11, and can firmly clamp the ton barrel 4 to be discharged through the control of a driving cylinder.

[0028] Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the valve opening mechanism 2 is composed of a horizontal movement module 21, a vertical movement module 22, and a valve opening module 23. The horizontal movement module 21 is installed on the first support frame 11 and includes a first motor 211, a first guide rail 213, and a first support seat 212, and realizes precise movement in the horizontal direction through a gear-rack mechanism. The vertical movement module 22 realizes movement in the vertical direction through a second motor 221, a second guide rail 223, and a second support seat 222. The valve opening module 23 is equipped with a third motor 231, a speed reducer 233, and a valve opening rocker arm 232, and can precisely control the opening and closing of the discharge valve of the ton barrel 4 to be discharged through the drive of the third motor 231.

[0029] Figure 4As shown in the figure, the docking mechanism 3 includes a second support frame 31, a docking pipe 32, and a clamping assembly 33. The docking pipe 32 is vertically installed on the second support frame 31 and is used to connect the material-discharging ton barrel 4 and the material-receiving ton barrel 5. The clamping assembly 33 is composed of a plurality of clamping units arranged circumferentially along the docking pipe 32. Each clamping unit includes a telescopic cylinder 331, a hinge seat 332, and a clamping claw 333. Driven by the telescopic cylinder 331, the clamping claw 333 can firmly clamp the outlet of the material-discharging ton barrel 4 to ensure the sealing and stability of the material docking.

[0030] Working principle:

[0031] First, the operator places the material-discharging ton barrel 4 within the limit railing 12 of the ton barrel fixing platform 4. Then, the first positioning block 13 and the second positioning block 14 are controlled by the driving cylinder to clamp and fix the material-discharging ton barrel 4, ensuring its stable position and preparing for the subsequent valve opening and material docking. Once the ton barrel is fixed, the valve opening mechanism 2 starts to work. The horizontal movement module 21 drives the gear-rack mechanism through the first motor 211, causing the vertical movement module 22 and the valve opening module 23 to move horizontally as a whole to the position of the ton barrel valve. Subsequently, the vertical movement module 22 drives the valve opening module to accurately move vertically to the operating height of the valve through the second motor 221 and the lead screw mechanism. Finally, the third motor 231 of the valve opening module 23 drives the valve opening block through the speed reducer 233 and the valve opening rocker arm 232 to swing the valve opening rod, thereby opening the outlet valve of the ton barrel. Before the valve is opened, the docking mechanism 3 is ready. The telescopic cylinder 331 of the clamping assembly 33 drives the clamping claw 333, and the telescopic cylinder 331 contracts to drive the clamping claw 333 to clamp the inlet of the material-receiving ton barrel, ensuring the sealing and stability of the docking. Once the valve is opened and the material docking is completed, the material in the material-discharging ton barrel 4 flows into the material-receiving ton barrel 5 through the docking pipe. When the discharging is completed, the valve opening mechanism 2 operates again to close the outlet valve of the ton barrel through the reverse operation, and the clamping assembly of the docking mechanism releases the inlet of the material-receiving ton barrel. Finally, each module and assembly return to the initial position, waiting for the next discharging operation.

[0032] With the above structure, the barrel material docking and discharging device of the present utility model can automatically complete the processes of fixing the ton barrel, opening and closing the valve, and material docking, thereby significantly improving the production efficiency and reducing the labor intensity of workers.

[0033] Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.
