Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fly ash loading, in particular to a material level indicator device for loading a fly ash tank truck. Background Art

[0002] Fly ash tankers typically have two or three loading ports. When loading fly ash, two loading ports are opened: one for loading and the other for monitoring the material level. This makes it difficult to observe the material level during loading, often leading to fly ash overflow and environmental pollution. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a material level indicator device that is easy to carry, simple in structure, and widely applicable to different fly ash tankers. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model aims to solve the deficiencies of the prior art and provides a material level indicating device for loading a fly ash tank truck.

[0004] The utility model is realized by the following technical scheme, and provides a material level indicating device for loading a fly ash tank truck, comprising an adjusting frame placed on the top of a charging port and an indicating rod with an upper end suspended on the adjusting frame and a lower end extending into the charging port; the adjusting frame comprises two adjusting rods hinged to each other at the upper ends, and the lower end of each adjusting rod is hinged to a support foot; a connecting rod is installed on the two adjusting rods, and the upper end of the indicating rod is fastened to the connecting rod by a rope, and the indicating rod is in a vertical state in a natural state.

[0005] Preferably, each support leg includes a support plate hinged to the lower end of the adjustment rod and a magnet fixed to the bottom of the support plate for attachment to the top of the loading port. The magnet securely places the device atop the loading port, eliminating the need for installation. This enhances stability and reduces installation time. The angle between the two adjustment rods, and thus the distance between the two support legs, is adjusted according to the size of the loading port, making it widely applicable to the loading of various fly ash tankers.

[0006] Preferably, a screw rod for passing through the connecting rod is fixed on each adjusting rod, and a long through hole is provided on the connecting rod. After the two screw rods pass through the long through hole, they are respectively connected to a fastening nut.

[0007] Preferably, there are two long through holes, and the two screws pass through the two long through holes in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0008] Preferably, in order to ensure that the indicator rod is in a vertical state in a natural state, a counterweight is fixed to the lower end of the indicator rod.

[0009] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0010] 1. The utility model can conveniently and intuitively display whether the tank truck is full, without the need for workers to frequently check the material level in the loading port, saving time and effort and easy operation.

[0011] 2. The utility model is easy to carry, has a simple structure and can be widely used in the loading of different fly ash tankers. Through the utility model, it is possible to observe in time whether the tanker is full, effectively avoiding the overflow of fly ash due to untimely observation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0017] In order to clearly illustrate the technical features of this solution, this solution is described below through specific implementation methods.

[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the utility model includes an adjustment frame placed on the top of the charging port 1 and an indicator rod 2 with an upper end hung on the adjustment frame and a lower end extending into the charging port 1.

[0019] The adjustment frame includes two adjustment rods 3 hinged at their upper ends. Each adjustment rod 3 is hinged at its lower end to a support leg. Each support leg includes a support plate 4 hinged to the lower end of the adjustment rod 3 and a magnet 5 fixed to the bottom of the support plate 4 for adsorption on the top of the charging port 1. The magnet 5 allows the device to be firmly placed on the top of the charging port 1, eliminating the need for installation, which enhances stability and saves installation time. The angle between the two adjustment rods 3, and thus the distance between the two support legs, is adjusted according to the size of the charging port 1. This makes it widely applicable to the loading of various fly ash tankers.

[0020] Connecting rods 6 are mounted on the two adjusting rods 3. The upper end of the indicator rod 2 is bolted to the connecting rods 6 via a rope 7. The indicator rods 2 are naturally upright. A screw 8 is fixed to each adjusting rod 3, passing through the connecting rod 6. The connecting rod 6 is provided with an elongated through-hole 9. The two screws 8 pass through the elongated through-holes 9 and are then connected to a fastening nut 10. In this embodiment, there are two elongated through-holes 9, and the two screws 8 pass through the two elongated through-holes 9 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0021] In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the indicator rod 2 is in a vertical state in a natural state, a counterweight 11 is fixed to the lower end of the indicator rod 2 .

[0022] During use, after adjusting the angle between the two adjusting rods 3 according to the size of the loading port 1, tighten the two fastening nuts 10 to fix the angle between the two adjusting rods 3. Then, place the two legs on top of the loading port 1 and fix them with magnets 5. Extend the lower end of the indicator rod 2 into the loading port 1. The length of the rope 7 can be adjusted as needed to adjust the indicator rod 2 to the appropriate length inside the loading port 1. In its natural state, the indicator rod 2 is in a vertical position. When the material level in the tank car approaches the loading port 1, the material hits the lower part of the indicator rod 2, causing the indicator rod 2 to tilt. Therefore, the loading operator can judge that the tank car is full by the tilt of the indicator rod 2 and stop loading.

[0023] The utility model can conveniently and intuitively display whether the tank truck is full, eliminating the need for workers to frequently check the material level in the loading port 1, saving time and effort, and being easy to operate. The utility model is easy to carry, simple in structure, and can be widely used in the loading of different fly ash tank trucks. The utility model can timely observe whether the tank truck is full, avoiding the situation where fly ash overflows due to untimely observation.
