Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of multimodal transport and loading and unloading transportation, and relates to a device for unloading bulk materials in containers by using a railway dumper. Background Art
[0002] For companies with large bulk material needs (such as steel mills and power plants), which need to transport millions or even tens of millions of tons of raw materials annually, these companies generally consider rail or water transportation as their primary means of transport, supplemented by road. Conventional enterprise master plans designate bulk materials arriving by rail as being unloaded by a car dumper before entering the raw material yard. Bulk materials arriving by road are unloaded by truck chutes before entering the raw material yard.
[0003] For bulk materials delivered by existing vans, regardless of whether the van is tipped sideways or backwards, the unloading process requires the driver to operate the vehicle on-site. This creates significant dust and creates a harsh environment, impacting the health of the driver and passengers. With the advancement of container technology and increased human intervention, vans are gradually being replaced by containerized trucks, which no longer require driver operation during the unloading process.
[0004] However, in newly built and existing railway dumper systems, due to uneven arrival of railway cargo, insufficient railway transport capacity, and long arrival intervals of heavy vehicles, the dumper operation efficiency is low and even affects the production scale of the enterprise. Summary of the Invention
[0005] An object of the present invention is to solve at least the above problems or disadvantages and to provide at least the advantages to be described below.
[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a device for unloading bulk materials from containers by utilizing a railway dumper.

[0012] At least one container transshipment railway line is set up, which is arranged behind the heavy vehicle railway line and connected to the two-way car shunting machine trolley movable on the transfer platform. When the bulk container is placed on the railway flatbed car of the container transshipment railway line, the bulk container is pushed into the tipping machine through the transshipment shunting machine and the two-way car shunting machine trolley movable on the transfer platform.
[0013] Preferably, the device for unloading bulk materials from containers using a railway dumper further comprises:

[0023] Explanation of related terms
[0024] A car dumper is a large mechanical equipment used to unload bulk materials from railway open cars.
[0025] Shunting machines and car shifting machines are driving devices used to push and stop vehicles from moving or stopping.

The railway flatbed car enters the transfer platform under the push of the transfer and empty car shunting machine, and finally enters the tipping machine in the reverse direction. After the tipping machine completes unloading, it returns to the transfer platform and the container transfer railway line.
[0028] The utility model utilizes the tail space of an existing dump truck to set up a system device for unloading container bulk materials, so as to achieve the goal of road container bulk materials. Alternatively, when planning and constructing the facility, the two can be built together, which not only improves the driver's working environment, but also reduces the number of operating positions in the vehicle receiving trough, thereby saving the company's operating costs.

[0052] In one of the solutions of the present utility model, preferably, two heavy vehicle railway lines 2 are provided, two empty vehicle railway lines 3 are provided, and two empty vehicle shunting tracks 5 are provided.
[0053] During the time interval after the car tipper 4 has finished unloading the railway heavy goods, the system is activated to transfer the bulk containers transported by road to the car tipper 4 for unloading after being transferred by crane or forklift. This effectively improves the operating efficiency of the car tipper 4, reduces the need for facilities such as car unloading chutes, and improves the environmental purity of the work site.
[0054] The device of the utility model comprises a container transshipment system, a system overall plan layout, a two-way vehicle shifting machine, and an interlocking control system.
[0055] 1Container transshipment system:
[0056] The bulk containers transported by the cars are hoisted onto the railway flatbed cars 11 kept on the empty railway line 3 or the container transfer line by using equipment such as bridge cranes, gantry cranes, and forklifts; and the empty containers unloaded from the railway flatbed cars 11 are hoisted onto the cars.
[0057] 2. System general layout:
[0058] The system layout includes 1-3 railway lines and a supporting shunting locomotive system. Of these, one is an extension of the empty-carriage railway line 3, and two are container-transfer railway lines 8. The shunting locomotive system supporting the extension line utilizes an empty-carriage shunting locomotive, simply extending the empty-carriage shunting locomotive line and towing cables. The shunting locomotive system supporting container-transfer railway line 8 requires additional shunting locomotives for both transfer and empty cars, shunting locomotive tracks, and towing cables.
[0059] 3 two-way car shifter
[0060] After the railway flatbed car 11 enters the two-way car shifting machine trolley of the car transfer platform 6, the two-way car shifting machine on the two-way car shifting machine trolley is activated when the existing shunting machine is unable to function, and the railway flatbed car 11 is pushed toward the tipping machine 4 or the container transshipment railway line 8.
[0061] 4 interlocking control system
[0062] On the dispatching platform of the information management center of the car tipper 4, through the microcomputer interlocking signal control system and online monitoring, the working conditions of the heavy vehicle railway line 2, the two-way car shunting trolley 14, the empty vehicle railway line 3, the container transshipment railway line 8 and the extension line of the empty vehicle railway line 3 can be controlled in real time, and at the same time, a mutually unified but various independent operation processes can be formed.
[0063] After the car tipper 4 completes the unloading of the entire train and all empty cars enter the empty railway line 3; before the next train arrives with a loaded car and enters the car tipper 4 for operation, the car tipper 4 and the two-way car shunting machine trolley 14 are ensured to be in an idle state; only then can the shunting machine of the extension line of the empty railway line 3 or the container transshipment railway line 8 be started to push the flatbed car loaded with containers into the transfer platform 6. Based on the overall layout of the system, it is determined whether the two-way car shunting machine needs to be activated before entering the car tipper 4 for operation. The unloaded containers and flatbed cars then pass through the transfer platform 6 and enter the extension line of the empty railway line 3 or the container transshipment railway line 8.
[0064] The utility model combines the railway dumper 4 with the container transshipment system arrived by road transport through a plane combination of the railway line and the dumper 4. Under the push of the shunting machine, the resource sharing of the dumper 4 is realized, the operation rate of the dumper 4 is improved, the working environment of the car driver is optimized, the dust emission concentration is controlled, and the operation cost is saved.
[0065] The innovations of this utility model are mainly reflected in: 1. The overall layout of the system: the empty car railway line 3 is extended at the rear of the car transfer platform 6 of the car dumper 4, and one or more container transfer lines are added. 2. The two-way car shifter trolley: a two-way car shifter is added to the two-way car shifter trolley 14 of the car transfer platform 6 to push the cars on the two-way car shifter trolley 14.
[0066] The utility model is provided with an interlocking control system. Under the control of the existing interlocking system of the tipper 4, multiple container transshipment lines and the interlocking system of the transfer platform 6, the two-way car transfer trolley 14 and the tipper 4 are added.
