[0033] To make the technical means, creative features, achieved objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to specific illustrations. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0034] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the sliding unloading gate for pits of this utility model includes a door frame 1, a flap door 3, and an unloading cylinder 4. The door frame 1 covers the upper end of the pit, with its short sides supported on the stops on both sides of the pit, and its long sides spanning between the stops on both sides of the pit. The two long sides of the door frame 1 are connected in the middle by a middle frame 2, and the two short sides of the door frame 1 are respectively hinged to the flap door 3 by door hinges 3a. The door hinges 3a have two coaxial shafts and are respectively hinged to both sides of the flap door 3 in the width direction.

[0036] Thickened door hinge guide plates 5 are provided on the upper part of both ends of the long side of the door frame, and each door hinge guide plate 5 is provided with a door hinge guide groove 5a extending obliquely downward. Door hinges 3a are respectively hinged to the upper two sides of the flip door 3, and the outer ends of the door hinges 3a are respectively inserted into the corresponding door hinge guide grooves 5a. The free ends of the two flip doors 3 extend obliquely downward towards the middle frame 2. Unloading cylinders are respectively hinged to the lower part of the two short sides of the door frame, and the free ends of the piston rods of the two unloading cylinders are respectively hinged to the middle of the back of the corresponding flip door 3.

[0037] Sliding guide plates 6 are fixed to the outer walls of the two long sides of the door frame. The sliding guide plates 6 are provided with guide grooves 6a. The guide grooves 6a extend downward along an arc with the axis of the door hinge 3a at the upper end of the door hinge guide groove 5a as the center. The upper end of the guide grooves 6a is provided with locking grooves 6b that bend horizontally away from the unloading cylinder. The middle parts of the two sides of the flip door 3 are respectively connected with outwardly extending guide pins 3b. The inner ends of the guide pins 3b are fixed to the side edges of the flip door 3 by lock nuts 3b1. The outer ends of the two guide pins 3b are respectively embedded in the corresponding guide grooves 6a.

[0038] To reduce sliding resistance, a roller 3c can be fixed to the outer end of the guide pin 3b, and the roller 3c is embedded in the corresponding guide groove 6a. The outer end of the guide groove 6a below the middle is provided with a groove chamfer 6c to prevent dust or material from accumulating at the lower edge of the guide groove 6a, so that the roller 3c will not be obstructed.

[0039] The free ends of the two flap doors 3 extend downwards towards the middle frame 2, and the angle between the top surface of the flap door 3 and the horizontal plane is 14° to 18°. In this way, the flap door 3 can be opened to obtain a larger opening angle, usually reaching 58° to 60°, which makes unloading smoother and faster.

[0040] Both sides of the top of the middle frame 2 are chamfered, which guides the material inwards, increases the opening size at the top, and reduces the material accumulation area at the top of the middle frame. The bottom of both sides of the middle frame 2 are provided with middle frame sealing stops 2a; the free end of the flip door 3 is provided with a flip door sealing flange 3d. When the flip door 3 is closed and its free end abuts against the bottom of the middle frame 2, the flip door sealing flange 3d is located below the middle frame sealing stops 2a, forming a horizontal slit, achieving natural material sealing.

[0041] After the flip door 3 is closed, there are door side baffles 1a above the gaps between the two sides and the door frame 1 to prevent material leakage on both sides. The door side baffles 1a are made of thin plate bent into shape, with triangular faces facing each other. The upper end is bent outward and fixedly connected to the upper edge of the door frame 1, while the lower end is open.

[0042] The unloading cylinders 4 on both sides operate synchronously, that is, the two flap doors 3 close and open synchronously. The figure shows the open and closed states respectively.

[0043] When the flap door 3 is fully open, the door hinge 3a is located at the upper end of the door hinge guide groove 5a, and the roller 3c is located at the lower end of the guide groove 6a. Before loading, the flap door 3 is closed. Under the control of the valve assembly 8, the piston rod of the unloading cylinder 4 extends, and the flap door 3 rotates upward around the door hinge 3a. At the same time, the roller 3c moves upward along the guide groove 6a. When it reaches the upper end of the guide groove 6a, the flap door 3 slides forward a certain distance under the push of the unloading cylinder 4, causing the roller 3c to slide into the locking groove 6b. At this time, the door hinge 3a is located at the lower end of the door hinge guide groove 5a, and the flap door 3 enters the self-locking state. The weight of the material carried by the flap door 3 does not generate a component force that causes the flap door 3 to slide upward, so the roller 3c will not automatically slide into the guide groove 6a, and the self-locking is very reliable. The lower horizontal section of the locking groove 6b bears the material pressure, and the unloading cylinder 4 does not bear the pressure generated by the material.

[0044] During unloading, as required by the material level or unloading point, the piston rod of the unloading cylinder 4 retracts, first pulling the flap door 3 backward a certain distance, causing the roller 3c to slide out of the locking groove 6b and enter the upper end of the guide groove 6a. At this time, the door hinge 3a returns to the upper end of the door hinge guide groove 5a. As the piston rod of the unloading cylinder 4 continues to retract, the flap door 3 rotates downward around the door hinge 3a and opens, starting the unloading process. When the roller 3c slides to the lower end of the guide groove 6a, the flap door 3 reaches its maximum opening angle.

[0045] The flip door 3 is provided with rotating baffles 7 on both sides, which cover the inner port of the guide groove 6a. The rotating baffles 7 are attached to the inner wall of the long side of the door frame 1. The rotating baffles 7 are semi-circular. When the flip door 3 is closed, the bottom horizontal edge of the rotating baffles 7 is parallel to the lower edge of the long side of the door frame, the arc-shaped top faces upward, and the baffle guide pin hole 7a is located below the arc-shaped top.

[0046] The guide pin 3b passes through the guide pin hole 7a on the upper part of the rotating baffle 7. The lower part of the rotating baffle 7 is provided with a baffle waist-shaped groove 7b, which extends obliquely downward. A baffle rotating pin 7c is embedded in the baffle waist-shaped groove 7b. The baffle rotating pin 7c is fixed on the long side of the door frame, forming a two-point positioning for the rotating baffle 7. The baffle rotating pin 7c is stepped with a thicker inner end and a thinner outer end, which protrudes from a small hole on the long side of the door frame. A shaft retaining ring is embedded in the outer end for axial positioning.

[0047] When the flap door 3 is closed, the guide pin 3b is in the high position, that is, the roller 3c is in the locking groove 6b, and the baffle plate rotating pin 7c is close to one end of the baffle plate waist groove 7b. The rotating baffle plate 7 laterally blocks the inner port of the guide slide 6a.

[0048] When the flap door 3 is open, the guide pin 3b is in the low position, meaning the roller 3c is at the lower end of the guide groove 6a, and the baffle plate pivot pin 7c is at the other end of the baffle plate slot 7b. The baffle plate vertically blocks the inner port of the guide groove 6a. Thus, when materials are opened and closed, the rotating baffle plate 7 can block the inner port of the guide groove 6a, preventing material leakage and material buildup at the lower edge of the guide groove 6a, ensuring smooth sliding of the roller 3c along the guide groove 6a.

[0049] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, showing and describing the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present utility model. It is not intended to limit the scope of patent protection of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. In addition to the above embodiments, the present utility model may have other implementations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model. Various changes and improvements to the present utility model are also possible. All technical solutions formed by equivalent substitutions or equivalent transformations fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present utility model. The scope of protection claimed by the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents. Technical features not described in the present utility model can be implemented by or using existing technology, and will not be elaborated here.
