[0027] The following description of the present invention, with reference to the accompanying drawings, is provided to facilitate a more comprehensive understanding of the various embodiments of the present invention as defined in the claims and their equivalents. The description includes various specific details to assist understanding, but these details should be construed as merely exemplary. Therefore, those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications may be made to the various embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention.

[0028] In the description of the present invention, descriptions of directions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0029] It will be understood that when one element (e.g., a first element) is “connected” to another element (e.g., a second element), the element may be directly connected to the other element or an intervening element (e.g., a third element) may be present between the element and the other element.

[0030] The embodiment of the present invention provides a replaceable material hopper installation structure, such as Figure 1 As shown, the material distribution hopper 100 and the mounting frame 200 are provided around the outside of the material distribution hopper 100 to support and fix the material distribution hopper 100. The mounting frame 200 is used to be fixed on the material distribution vehicle. The material distribution hopper 100 and the mounting frame 200 are detachably connected, so that the material distribution hopper 100 can be detachably fixed on the material distribution vehicle.

[0031] For different pipe pile molds, the distribution hopper 100 can be disassembled and replaced to adapt it to the pipe pile mold, so as to achieve accurate distribution, reduce waste of concrete materials, and reduce raw material costs; at the same time, since the distribution hopper 100 is detachable, compared with the traditional method, the time for replacing the distribution hopper 100 can be shortened, the work intensity of workers can be reduced, and production efficiency can be improved.

[0032] In this embodiment, the shape of the mounting frame 200 can be adapted to the outer contour of the distribution hopper 100. When the outer contour of the distribution hopper 100 is square, the mounting frame 200 is a square frame. When the outer contour of the distribution hopper 100 is circular, the mounting frame 200 can be a circular frame accordingly. When the outer contour of the distribution hopper 100 is other shapes, the mounting frame 200 can be other shapes that are adapted to the distribution hopper 100.

[0033] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, locking sleeves 300 are fixed to both sides of the distribution hopper 100 in the width direction, and locking mechanisms 400 are provided on the locking sleeves 300. Insertion rods 230 are slidably connected to the mounting frame 200 on both sides of the distribution hopper 100 in the width direction. The insertion rods 230 can slide relative to the mounting frame 200. During the sliding process, the insertion rods 230 can be inserted into or removed from the locking sleeves 300. After the insertion rods 230 are inserted into the locking sleeves 300, the locking mechanism 400 can lock the locking sleeves 300 to the insertion rods 230 or release the locking sleeves 300.

[0034] When the locking mechanism 400 locks the locking sleeve 300 onto the insertion rod 230, the insertion rod 230 and the locking sleeve 300 are fixedly connected, and the distribution hopper 100 is mounted and fixed to the mounting frame 200. When the locking mechanism 400 releases the locking sleeve 300, the insertion rod 230 can be withdrawn from the locking sleeve 300, and the distribution hopper 100 can be removed from the mounting frame 200, thereby achieving a detachable connection between the distribution hopper 100 and the mounting frame 200. This detachable connection is achieved through the sliding of the insertion rod 230 and the action of the locking mechanism 400, making it more convenient to operate.

[0035] Furthermore, the locking mechanism 400 includes a first connecting piece 410 and a second connecting piece 420 disposed on the locking sleeve 300, and a tensioning assembly 430 connected to both the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420. The locking sleeve 300 is provided with a gap 310, located between the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420. The presence of the gap 310 allows the locking sleeve 300 to deform, thereby changing its inner diameter. The tensioning assembly 430 is used to shorten the distance between the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420.

[0036] After the tensioning assembly 430 closes the gap between the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420, the width of the gap 310 decreases, and the inner diameter of the locking sleeve 300 decreases. The locking sleeve 300 can be tightly clamped on the insertion rod 230, restricting the insertion rod 230 from moving relative to the locking sleeve 300, and the locking mechanism 400 can lock the locking sleeve 300 to the insertion rod 230. When the tensioning assembly 430 does not close the gap between the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420, the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420 return to their original position due to the elastic deformation force of the material itself, the width of the gap 310 increases, the inner diameter of the locking sleeve 300 increases, and the locking sleeve 300 is no longer tightly clamped on the insertion rod 230. The locking mechanism 400 then releases the locking sleeve 300, allowing the insertion rod 230 to move relative to the locking sleeve 300.

[0037] Furthermore, the tensioning assembly 430 includes a pull rod 431 and a cam clamping rod 432. One end of the pull rod 431 is connected to the first connecting piece 410, and the other end passes through the second connecting piece 420 and is rotatably connected to the cam clamping rod 432. The cam clamping rod 432 abuts the second connecting piece 420. By rotating the cam clamping rod 432, different positions of the cam clamping rod 432 abut the second connecting piece 420, thereby pulling the pull rod 431 to shorten the distance between the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420.

[0038] In other embodiments, the tensioning assembly 430 may include a screw and two nuts, the screw passing through the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420, the two nuts are both sleeved on the screw and are respectively located on the outside of the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420. When the two nuts are tightened, the distance between the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420 can be shortened, and when the two nuts are loosened, the first connecting piece 410 and the second connecting piece 420 can be reset.

[0039] In some embodiments, as Figure 3-5 As shown, the insertion rod 230 is provided with a movable stopper 240, which can restrict the insertion rod 230 from being separated from the locking sleeve 300 or release the restriction on the insertion rod 230. When the stopper 240 restricts the insertion rod 230 from being separated from the locking sleeve 300, the insertion rod 230 remains inserted into the locking sleeve 300, stably fixing the distribution hopper to the mounting frame 200. When the stopper 240 releases the restriction on the insertion rod 230, the insertion rod 230 can be withdrawn from the locking sleeve 300.

[0040] Furthermore, the length of the limiting member 240 is greater than the inner diameter of the locking sleeve 300, and the width of the limiting member 240 is less than the inner diameter of the locking sleeve 300. When the limiting member 240 is rotated until its length is perpendicular to the axial direction of the locking sleeve 300, both ends of the limiting member 240 can abut against the end surface of the locking sleeve 300, preventing the insertion rod 230 from being withdrawn from the locking sleeve 300, thereby preventing the insertion rod 230 from being separated from the locking sleeve 300. When the limiting member 240 is rotated until its length is parallel to the axial direction of the locking sleeve 300, the limiting member 240 no longer abuts against the end surface of the locking sleeve 300, allowing the insertion rod 230 to be withdrawn from the locking sleeve 300, and the limiting member 240 releases its restriction on the insertion rod 230.

[0041] Furthermore, the limiting member 240 is provided with a through slot 241, which extends along the length direction of the limiting member 240, and the insertion rod 230 is provided with a connecting rod 231, which passes through the through slot 241 and can move in the through slot 241. Thus, the limiting member 240 can rotate relative to the insertion rod 230, and sufficient space for its movement is provided.

[0042] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, two slots 320 are provided on the end face of the locking sleeve 300. When the limit member 240 is rotated until its length direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the locking sleeve 300, the two ends of the limit member 240 can be respectively inserted into the two slots 320 to limit the rotation of the limit member 240 relative to the locking sleeve 300, so that the limit member 240 can maintain the state of limiting the insertion rod 230 from being separated from the locking sleeve 300, and the fabric hopper can be more stably fixed on the mounting frame.

[0043] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The mounting frame 200 includes two first support rods 210, which are respectively located at two sides of the width direction of the cloth hopper 100, the axial directions of the two first support rods 210 and the axial direction of the locking sleeve 300 are parallel to the length direction of the cloth hopper 100, and the first sleeve 211 is slidably sleeved on the two first support rods 210. The insertion rod 230 is connected with the first sleeve 211, and when the first sleeve 211 slides on the first support rod 210, the insertion rod 230 can be inserted into or moved out of the locking sleeve 300.

[0044] Further, the mounting frame 200 further includes two second support rods 220, which are respectively located at two sides of the length direction of the cloth hopper 100, and the axial directions of the two second support rods 220 are parallel to the width direction of the cloth hopper 100. The two ends of the first support rod 210 are fixedly connected with the second sleeve 221, and the second sleeves 221 at the two ends of the first support rod 210 are slidably sleeved with the two second support rods 220. Therefore, the first support rod 210 can move along the width direction of the cloth hopper 100 to change the distance between the two first support rods 210, thereby adapting to cloth hoppers 100 of different widths, and further enhancing the versatility of the mounting frame 200.

[0045] Further, the second sleeve 221 is further provided with a fastening mechanism, which can lock and fix the second sleeve 221 on the second support rod 220 or loosen the second sleeve 221. After adjusting the position of the first support rod 210, the fastening mechanism locks and fixes the second sleeve 221 on the second support rod 220 to limit the movement of the first support rod 210, and the distance between the two first support rods 210 can be maintained at the desired distance. When the fastening mechanism loosens the second sleeve 221, the first support rod 210 can move along the width direction of the cloth hopper 100.

[0046] The fastening mechanism can include a screw, and the second sleeve 221 is provided with a threaded hole penetrating through, and the screw is connected with the threaded hole. By tightening the screw, the screw abuts against the second sleeve 221, so that the second sleeve 221 is locked and fixed on the second support rod 220, and vice versa, by loosening the screw, the second sleeve 221 is loosened.

[0047] The terms and words used in the above description and claims are not limited by the literal meaning, but are used by the applicant to enable a clear and consistent understanding of the present application. Therefore, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that the above description of various embodiments of the present application is only for the purpose of illustration, not for the purpose of limiting the present application as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
