[0002] In the homogenization process of the battery manufacturing industry, some auxiliary material solutions are not equipped with automatic feeding and metering tanks and need to be manually added to the stirring container.

[0003] In related technologies, open containers are typically used to hold the solution, which is then manually lifted and poured into a mixer. This step not only poses high safety risks, such as potential leakage during solution transfer and the risk of skin damage from corrosive solutions, but also affects the quality of the resulting slurry. For example, manual feeding can result in significant weight deviations, and foreign objects may be introduced during the feeding process. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an efficient and reliable feeding device to meet the requirements for solution transfer. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a lifting automatic feeding cart, comprising:

[0006] The material hopper has a feed inlet at the top and a discharge pipe at the bottom. The material hopper includes a cylindrical upper shell and a cone-shaped lower shell. A discharge trough is provided inside the lower shell, and the two ends of the discharge trough are respectively connected to the upper shell and the discharge pipe.

[0014] In some embodiments, a first material cover is provided at the feed inlet; the first material cover has a window, and a second material cover is provided at the window.

[0015] In some embodiments, the lifting automatic feeding vehicle further includes a display electrically connected to the controller, the display being configured to display status parameters of the lifting automatic feeding vehicle.

[0016] In some embodiments, the loading trolley body is further provided with a control component electrically connected to the controller; the control component includes a joystick and operation buttons; the joystick is configured to control the movement of the loading trolley body, and the operation buttons are configured to control the start and stop of the lifting automatic feeding trolley.

[0027] This embodiment proposes a lifting automatic feeding cart 100, referring to... Figures 1 to 2In a preferred embodiment, the lifting automatic feeding cart 100 includes:

[0028] The material barrel 1 has a feed inlet 11 at the top and a discharge pipe 2 at the bottom. The material barrel 1 includes a cylindrical upper shell 12 and a cone-shaped lower shell 13. A discharge trough 131 is provided inside the lower shell 13, and the two ends of the discharge trough 131 are respectively connected to the upper shell 12 and the discharge pipe 2.

[0029] Solenoid valve 3 is installed on the discharge pipe 2 and is used to control the opening and closing of the discharge pipe 2.

[0030] The loading car body 4 is provided with a first frame 41 and a drive mechanism that drives the first frame 41 to move up and down.

[0031] Weighing platform 6 is mounted on the first frame 41, and material bucket 1 is mounted on the weighing platform 6.

[0032] In this embodiment, the material hopper 1 is used to store the material to be added. The inlet 11 is located at the top of the material hopper 1. When the material enters the material hopper 1 through the inlet 11, it is first stored in the cylindrical upper shell 12. The material hopper 1 includes a cylindrical upper shell 12 and a cone-shaped lower shell 13. The cylindrical upper shell 12 has good mechanical stability and can withstand greater pressure and weight, which is beneficial to maintaining the stability of the structure when storing materials, preventing easy deformation or damage, and providing a large storage space. The cone-shaped lower shell 13 is used to guide the material. The material flows smoothly to the discharge pipe 2, where its inclined inner wall allows the material to naturally gather and flow downwards under the influence of gravity. The discharge trough 131 inside the lower shell 13 effectively guides the material to the discharge pipe 2, reducing the amount of material remaining in the material bucket 1. Compared to flat bottoms or other structures that are not conducive to material flow, this design allows more material to be discharged smoothly, preventing material from accumulating at the bottom of the material bucket 1. In addition, the segmented structure of the upper shell 12 and lower shell 13 of the material bucket 1 is relatively simple, making it easy to process and shape during manufacturing, thus reducing production difficulty and cost.

[0033] In this embodiment, the discharge pipe 2 is L-shaped. The vertical pipe section is connected to the discharge trough 131 of the material bucket 1, and the horizontal pipe section is equipped with a solenoid valve 3. The opening and closing of the discharge pipe 2 can be realized through the cooperation of the solenoid valve 3, thereby accurately controlling the timing and amount of discharge, and improving the automation and precision of the entire feeding process.

[0034] The loading trolley body 4 provides the foundation for the movement and support of the entire equipment, enabling it to move flexibly between different work areas, adapt to the material feeding needs of multiple workstations, and improve the versatility and efficiency of the equipment. The first frame 41 serves as a load-bearing component, used to install and fix the weighing platform 6 and the material bucket 1, ensuring the stability of the material bucket 1 during the lifting process, and providing a stable platform foundation for accurate weighing and material feeding. The mobility of the loading trolley body 4 facilitates the scheduling of the equipment in the workshop, reduces intermediate links in material handling, reduces the intensity of manual labor, and improves the overall efficiency of the production process.

[0035] The drive mechanism installed on the main body 4 of the feeding car can precisely control the lifting height of the first frame 41 and the material bucket 1, adapting to processing equipment or reaction vessels of different heights, and improving the compatibility and applicability of the equipment. Compared with the manual lifting method, the drive mechanism can provide stable lifting power, avoiding the instability of lifting caused by uneven manual operation force, thereby ensuring the safety and accuracy of the feeding process.

[0036] In this embodiment, the weighing platform 6 is set at the bottom of the material bucket 1, which can monitor the weight change of the material in the material bucket 1 in real time and provide key data support for precise control of the discharge amount. The weighing platform 6 is also equipped with an electronic screen 61 that displays the weight of the material in real time. Through the electronic screen 61, the operator can intuitively understand the remaining material in the material bucket 1 and make it convenient to replenish the material in a timely manner.

[0037] Furthermore, a controller 7 is installed on the main body 4 of the loading vehicle, and the weighing platform 6, the drive mechanism and the solenoid valve 3 are all electrically connected to the controller 7.

[0038] The controller 7, as the control center of the entire lifting automatic feeding cart 100, integrates key components such as the weighing platform 6, drive mechanism, and solenoid valve 3 for unified management and control. When the feeding operation is started, the controller 7 first controls the drive mechanism to lift the material bucket 1 to a suitable height according to the set feeding parameters, so that its discharge pipe 2 connects with the target equipment. The weighing platform 6 is electrically connected to the controller 7 and can transmit the weight data of the material in the material bucket 1 to the controller 7 in real time. The controller 7 analyzes and calculates this weight data to obtain the current discharge amount and the amount of remaining material. According to the preset feeding weight value, the controller 7 precisely adjusts the discharge amount by controlling the opening and closing time of the solenoid valve 3. When the actual discharge amount is close to the target value, the controller 7 can make fine adjustments based on the high-precision feedback of the weighing platform 6 to ensure that the final feeding accuracy is controlled within a very small error range. Based on the feedback adjustment mechanism of real-time data, the lifting automatic feeding cart 100 can adapt to the feeding accuracy requirements of different production processes, effectively improving the stability of product quality, the degree of automation of the feeding process, and production efficiency.

[0039] Furthermore, a buzzer 42 is also installed on the main body 4 of the loading vehicle, and the buzzer 42 is electrically connected to the controller 7.

[0040] The controller 7 also integrates multiple safety protection functions, which monitor the working status of each component of the lifting automatic feeding cart 100 in real time. For example, when the feeding is close to the preset weight, the buzzer 42 will sound and light an alarm to remind the operator that the target weight is about to be reached and that the feeding situation needs to be closely monitored. This sound and light prompt allows the operator to obtain the equipment status information in a timely manner through hearing or vision while paying attention to the operation of the equipment, which enhances the effect of human-machine interaction. Especially in noisy industrial environments, sound prompts are more important and help to achieve more efficient, stable and safe production operations.

[0041] Furthermore, multiple support columns 14 are vertically installed at the lower end of the material bucket 1, and the material bucket 1 is fixed on the weighing platform 6 by the support columns 14.

[0042] The material hopper 1 bears a significant weight when storing materials, especially when it is full, resulting in considerable pressure on its bottom. By installing multiple vertical support columns 14, the weight of the material hopper 1 can be evenly distributed onto the weighing platform 6. Compared to placing the material hopper 1 directly on the weighing platform 6, the support columns 14 increase the bearing area and reduce the pressure per unit area, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the weighing platform 6 due to excessive local pressure and ensuring the stability and accuracy of the weighing platform 6 during long-term use.

[0043] Meanwhile, the accuracy of the weighing platform 6 is crucial for precise feeding. If the material bucket 1 is in direct contact with the weighing platform 6, factors such as unevenness at the bottom of the material bucket 1, material residue, or other impurities may easily interfere with the weighing results, leading to weighing errors. However, the support column 14 separates the material bucket 1 from the weighing platform 6 by a certain distance, so that the weighing platform 6 is mainly subjected to the force transmitted by the support column 14, reducing the impact of these potential interference factors on the weighing accuracy.

[0044] In addition, during actual production, it may be necessary to replace the material bucket 1 regularly for cleaning or maintenance, or to replace the material bucket 1 with different specifications according to different material requirements. The structure of the support column 14 makes the disassembly of the material bucket 1 easier.

[0045] Furthermore, a guardrail 62 is provided around the material hopper 1, and the guardrail 62 is fixed on the weighing platform 6.

[0046] In this embodiment, the guardrail 62 is integrally formed with the weighing platform 6. The guardrail 62 does not directly contact or support the material bucket 1. However, when the equipment is subjected to external vibration or impact during operation, or when the material bucket 1 is unevenly distributed and causes the material bucket 1 to sway, the guardrail 62 can provide additional lateral support force for the material bucket 1, limit the lateral displacement of the material bucket 1, and maintain the relative stability of the material bucket 1. The guardrail 62 can also prevent external objects from accidentally hitting the weighing platform 6 and the material bucket 1.

[0047] Furthermore, a first material cover 9 is provided at the feed inlet 11; a window 91 is provided on the first material cover 9, and a second material cover 10 is provided at the window 91.

[0048] The first material cover 9, as the main sealing component of the feed inlet 11, can effectively prevent external impurities from entering the material barrel 1, protect the material from contamination, and ensure the purity and quality of the material. A window 91 is opened on the first material cover 9 and a second material cover 10 is provided, so that when it is necessary to feed material or check the condition inside the material barrel 1, only the smaller second material cover 10 can be opened. Compared with fully opening the first material cover 9, the area of ​​material in contact with the external environment is greatly reduced, further reducing the risk of impurities entering the material barrel 1.

[0049] Furthermore, the lifting automatic feeding cart 100 also includes a display 71 electrically connected to the controller 7, the display 71 being configured to display the status parameters of the lifting automatic feeding cart 100.

[0050] The display 71 can acquire and display various status parameters of the lifting automatic feeding cart 100 in real time, such as the real-time weight data of the material in the bucket 1 provided by the sensor of the weighing platform 6, the opening and closing status of the solenoid valve 3 on the discharge pipe 2, and the power status of the lifting automatic feeding cart 100. By observing the display 71, the operator can have a comprehensive understanding of the current operating status of the equipment, which greatly improves the intuitiveness and convenience of monitoring the equipment status. For example, during the lifting of the bucket 1, the operator can clearly see the height value of the bucket 1 rising or falling, as well as the corresponding speed information, on the display 71 to ensure that the bucket 1 can accurately reach the predetermined position for feeding. During the feeding process, the real-time display of material weight changes can help the operator intuitively grasp the feeding progress. This greatly improves the intelligence level, operational convenience, production management efficiency, and equipment maintenance performance of the lifting automatic feeding cart 100, enabling it to better adapt to the development needs of automation, informatization, and intelligence in modern industrial production.

[0051] Furthermore, the loading trolley body 4 is also equipped with a control component electrically connected to the controller 7; the control component includes a control lever 43 and an operation button 44; the control lever 43 is configured to control the movement of the loading trolley body 4, and the operation button 44 is configured to control the start and stop of the lifting automatic feeding trolley 100.

[0052] The control lever 43, as the main component controlling the movement of the feeding trolley body 4, is designed based on ergonomic principles, allowing operators to operate it in a natural and comfortable manner. By moving the control lever 43 forward, backward, left, and right, operators can precisely control the horizontal movement of the feeding trolley body 4, such as moving forward, backward, and turning. The setting of the operation buttons 44 makes the start-up and shutdown of the lifting automatic feeding trolley 100 quick and convenient, improving the efficiency of the equipment.

[0053] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes a second frame 5 and a linear drive that drives the second frame 5 to rise and fall; the second frame 5 is disposed on the movable end of the linear drive, and the second frame 5 also includes a horizontally disposed extension 51, on which the first frame 41 is fixed.

[0054] The second frame 5 effectively distributes the weight of the material bucket 1, avoiding excessive pressure on individual components due to concentrated force. The linear drive mainly bears the vertical lifting force, while the second frame 5 provides stable support for the first frame 41 in the horizontal direction. The structural design of the second frame 5 increases the overall rigidity, making it less prone to deformation when subjected to large loads. Through the support and distribution effect of the second frame 5, the entire drive mechanism can be kept stable during lifting, reducing swaying and deviation, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the lifting automatic feeding cart 100.

[0055] In this embodiment, the linear driver is a stepper motor. A guide rail is vertically installed on the loading trolley body 4. The stepper motor can drive the second frame 5 to rise and fall vertically along the guide rail. The stepper motor has precise position control capability and good speed control capability. In some other embodiments, other linear drive modules can also be used.

[0056] Furthermore, the lower end of the extension 51 is provided with multiple movable wheels 511, which are configured to drive the loading trolley body 4 to move. The multiple movable wheels 511 enable the loading trolley body 4 to have better mobility in the horizontal direction and can also share part of the load of the loading trolley body 4 during horizontal movement, reducing the force on the drive mechanism in the horizontal direction.

[0057] The above description is only a part or preferred embodiment of this utility model. Neither the text nor the drawings should limit the scope of protection of this utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made using the content of this utility model specification and drawings under the overall concept of this utility model, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
