[0002] Sand-spreading braking is an important auxiliary braking method in locomotive braking systems. It increases friction by spreading sand between the wheels and the track, thereby improving the braking effect and operational safety of the locomotive. Due to the frequent and severe rain and snow in northern winter, locomotives are affected by the real-time rain and snow while pulling trains, and rain and snow will condense and freeze at the sand-spreading nozzles.
[0003] Publication No. CN221775824U discloses a locomotive sand-spreading pipe heating device comprising a curved fixing plate, a curved clamping plate, a curved heating plate, and a driving assembly.

[0004] The above-mentioned device can heat the sand-spreading pipe mouth through the arc-shaped heating plate to melt the ice at the sand-spreading pipe mouth. However, the heating speed of the heating plate is slow and cannot quickly melt the ice at the sand-spreading pipe mouth. In an emergency, the sand may not be sprinkled out in time, which poses a certain risk. In addition, the sand-spreading pipe mouth is often open, and rain and snow can easily enter the sand-spreading pipe, causing the inside of the sand-spreading pipe to be frozen. Utility Model Content

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0014] 1. In the present application, when alternating current acts on the induction heating coil, an alternating magnetic field will be generated inside the coil. This magnetic field is constantly adjusted with the periodic changes of the current, thereby forming a dynamic electromagnetic field environment. The metal sand outlet is placed in the magnetic field area generated by the induction coil. Since the metal sand outlet is conductive, when the magnetic field changes, an induced electromotive force will be induced inside it. Subsequently, the induced electromotive force excites an induced current inside the metal sand outlet. The induced current flows inside the metal sand outlet, forming an eddy current effect, which in turn generates heat, causing the metal sand outlet to heat up rapidly, thereby achieving rapid melting of the ice inside.
[0015] 2. In this application, when the electromagnet is energized, the magnetic field it generates attracts the iron end cap, sealing the metal sand outlet to prevent rain, snow, and other foreign matter from entering the sand spreading tube. When the electromagnet is de-energized, the torsion spring forces the iron end cap to rotate about its pivot, automatically opening it and facilitating sand spreading operations.

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the utility model provides a technical solution for a composite wear-resistant sand-spreading pipe, including a sand-spreading pipe body 3, on which a docking base 2 is fixedly installed, and a docking through-hole 1 is provided at the edge of the docking base 2. A metal sand outlet 4 is fixedly installed at the other end of the sand-spreading pipe body 3, and a heating component 5 is fixedly installed on the outside of the metal sand outlet 4. A sealing mechanism 6 is provided on the inside of the metal sand outlet 4. The sealing mechanism 6 can prevent rain and snow from entering the interior of the sand-spreading pipe body 3, and the heating component 5 can quickly heat up the metal sand outlet 4 and quickly melt the ice in the metal sand outlet 4.
[0023] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the heating component 5 includes a positioning cover 501 fixedly installed on the outside of the metal sand outlet 4, an induction heating coil 507 is fixedly installed in the positioning cover 501, a mounting groove 504 is provided on the positioning cover 501, a sealing ring 506 is provided in the mounting groove 504, docking legs 502 are fixedly installed at both ends of the positioning cover 501, docking legs 502 are provided with docking screw holes 505, and the docking screw holes 505 are connected with fixing bolts 503, and the docking legs 502 are docked together by the fixing bolts 503, and an inlet and outlet hole is provided on the positioning cover 501, and the power cord of the induction heating coil 507 extends out of the positioning cover 501 through the inlet and outlet hole.
[0024] Specifically, when alternating current flows through the induction heating coil 507, an alternating magnetic field will be generated inside the coil. This magnetic field continues to change with the change of current, forming a dynamic electromagnetic environment. The metal sand outlet 4 is placed within the magnetic field generated by the induction coil. Given that the metal sand outlet 4 has conductive properties, when the magnetic field changes, an induced potential will be induced inside the metal sand outlet 4, thereby prompting an induced current to be formed inside the metal sand outlet 4. The induced current flows inside the metal sand outlet 4 in the form of eddy current, thereby generating heat, causing the temperature of the metal sand outlet 4 to rise rapidly, thereby achieving rapid melting of ice cubes in the metal sand outlet 4.
[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the sealing mechanism 6 includes a mounting base 601 fixedly installed in the metal sand outlet 4, a mounting foot 602 is fixedly installed on the mounting base 601, a movable shaft 603 is fixedly installed on the mounting foot 602, an iron end cover 606 is rotatably installed on the movable shaft 603, a torsion spring 604 is provided at both ends of the movable shaft 603, a movable notch 605 is provided on the iron end cover 606, an electromagnet 607 is fixedly installed on one side of the iron end cover 606 in the metal sand outlet 4, a fixing hole is provided on the mounting foot 602, and the movable shaft 603 is fixed to the mounting foot 602 through the fixing hole.
[0026] Specifically, when the electromagnet 607 is powered on, it immediately generates a magnetic force, attracting the iron end cap 606. Under the magnetic force of the electromagnet 607, the iron end cap 606 is tightly attached to the surface of the electromagnet 607. This effectively blocks the metal sand outlet 4, preventing rainwater, snowflakes, and other foreign matter from entering the interior of the sand spreading tube body 3. This design ensures that the sand spreading tube body 3 remains dry and clean even in inclement weather, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the sand spreading equipment.
[0027] On the other hand, when sand spreading operation is required, we only need to disconnect the power supply of electromagnet 607. At this time, the torsion spring 604 will play its role, generate torque, and drive the iron end cover 606 to rotate around the movable shaft 603, so that the iron end cover 606 is released from the adsorption state. As the iron end cover 606 rotates, it will automatically open the metal sand outlet 4, facilitating the sand spreading operation.
[0028] Working principle: When in use, the sand spreading tube body 3 is installed on the sand spreading device of the machine tool through the docking base 2, and the induction heating coil 507 can be installed on the outside of the metal sand outlet 4 through the positioning cover 501. Once the metal sand outlet 4 is frozen, the power supply of the induction heating coil 507 can be turned on. When the alternating current passes through the induction heating coil 507, an alternating magnetic field will be generated in the coil. This magnetic field will continue to change with the change of current, forming a dynamic electromagnetic field. The metal sand outlet 4 is located in the magnetic field of the induction coil. Since the metal sand outlet 4 is a conductor, when the magnetic field changes, an induced potential will be generated inside the metal sand outlet 4, and then An induced current is formed inside the metal sand outlet 4, and this induced current flows inside the metal sand outlet 4 to form an eddy current. The eddy current can make the metal sand outlet 4 heat up, generate heat, and quickly heat up the metal sand outlet 4, quickly melting the ice in the metal sand outlet 4. At the same time, after the power of the electromagnet 607 is turned on, it will adsorb the iron end cover 606, so that the iron end cover 606 blocks the metal sand outlet 4 to prevent rain and snow from entering the inside of the sand spreading tube body 3. At the same time, after the power of the electromagnet 607 is turned off, the torsion spring 604 will drive the iron end cover 606 to rotate around the movable shaft 603, so that the iron end cover 606 is automatically opened, which is convenient for sand spreading operations.
[0029] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be encompassed within the present invention. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim to which it relates.
