Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material loading and unloading technology, specifically to a waterwheel-type loading and unloading machine that facilitates the transport of materials. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the traditional material loading and unloading method in the domestic market is to select excavators of different models and sizes according to different sites and goods for loading and unloading, and then transport them by truck. However, this method is more suitable for land operations, and in some areas with poor site conditions, it is not suitable for trucks to enter the site, and it is inconvenient to transport materials to the outside world. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a waterwheel-type loading and unloading machine that facilitates the transport of materials to the outside world and is easy to use.
[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a waterwheel-type loading and unloading machine for easy material transport, including a frame, a turntable rotatably mounted on the frame, the center line of the turntable being horizontally positioned, a drive mechanism for driving the turntable to rotate being provided on the frame, multiple buckets distributed circumferentially on one side of the turntable, and a conveyor located between the highest and lowest points of the bucket rotation on the frame.
[0005] This solution uses a turntable to drive multiple buckets to rotate circumferentially, enabling continuous loading and unloading of materials and improving operational efficiency. During bucket rotation, materials are poured onto a conveyor, which then transports the materials to the outside environment for easy transport.
[0006] As an optimization, the frame is equipped with a telescopic mechanism that drives the turntable and conveyor to move up and down synchronously. This optimized solution uses the telescopic mechanism to drive the turntable and conveyor to move up and down, ensuring that the bucket always contacts the material at the bottom when it reaches its lowest point, scooping up the material. This also ensures that the conveyor maintains synchronous operation to receive and transport materials.
[0007] As an optimization, the telescopic mechanism includes two first telescopic cylinders fixed to the frame and vertically arranged. The two first telescopic cylinders are located on both sides of the turntable and arranged opposite each other. The turntable is rotatably connected to the upper ends of the two first telescopic cylinders. This optimized solution drives the turntable to move up and down by the extension and retraction of the first telescopic rod.
[0008] As an optimization, the conveyor is hinged to the upper end of the first telescopic cylinder on the same side, and a second telescopic lever for driving the conveyor to rotate is also hinged to the upper end of the first telescopic cylinder. This optimized design allows the conveyor to be retracted by rotating via the second telescopic cylinder when not in use, reducing space occupation.
[0009] As an optimization, the conveyor is hinged to the upper end of the telescopic cylinder via a first hinge shaft, which is horizontally positioned and perpendicular to the center line of the turntable.
[0010] As an optimization, a limiting frame for engaging the conveyor is provided on the side wall of the first telescopic cylinder near the conveyor. This optimized solution uses the limiting frame to engage and limit the conveyor after it is retracted, preventing swaying.
[0011] As an optimization, the side of the bucket closest to the center of the turntable is an inclined plane, and the angle between the inclined plane and the tangent of the turntable is 30~45°. In this optimized design, when the bucket rotates to its highest point, the inclined plane of the bucket tilts downwards, facilitating the sliding and dumping of materials.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Multiple buckets rotate circumferentially via a turntable to form a waterwheel-like structure, enabling continuous loading and unloading of materials and improving operational efficiency. During bucket rotation, materials are poured onto a conveyor, which then transports the materials to the outside environment, facilitating material handling. When not in use, the conveyor is vertically retracted via a second telescopic cylinder, making storage convenient and reducing space occupation. Attached Figure Description

[0020] To clearly illustrate the technical features of this solution, the following detailed implementation method will be used to explain the solution.
[0021] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a waterwheel-type loading and unloading machine for easy material transport, such as... Figure 1 , 5As shown, the device includes a frame 1, on which a turntable 3 is rotatably mounted. The center line of the turntable 3 is horizontally positioned. The frame 1 is equipped with a drive mechanism to drive the turntable 3 to rotate. Multiple buckets 4 are distributed circumferentially on one side of the turntable 3. The frame 1 is also equipped with a conveyor 5 located between the highest and lowest points of rotation of the buckets 4.
[0022] The turntable 3 drives multiple buckets 4 to rotate circumferentially, enabling continuous loading and unloading of materials and improving operational efficiency. During the rotation of the buckets 4, the materials are poured onto the conveyor 5, which then transports the materials to the outside for easy transport.
[0023] The frame 1 is equipped with a telescopic mechanism that drives the turntable 3 and the conveyor 5 to move up and down synchronously. The telescopic mechanism drives the turntable and the conveyor to move up and down, so that when the bucket rotates to the lowest point, it can always contact the material at the bottom to scoop up the material, and the conveyor can keep moving synchronously to receive and transport the material.
[0024] Specifically, the telescopic mechanism includes two first telescopic cylinders 2 fixed on the frame 1 and vertically arranged. The two first telescopic cylinders 2 are located on both sides of the turntable 3 and are arranged opposite to each other. The turntable 3 is rotatably connected to the upper ends of the two first telescopic cylinders 2. In this embodiment, the two first telescopic cylinders 2 are fixed on the base 11.
[0025] Specifically, in this embodiment, rotating shafts are fixedly connected to both sides of the turntable 3, and the rotating shafts and the center line of the turntable are coaxially arranged. Bearing seats 6 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two first telescopic cylinders 2, and the two rotating shafts and the two bearing seats 6 are rotatably connected one by one.
[0026] Specifically, the opening directions of the plurality of buckets 4 are the same, the buckets 4 are fixedly installed on one side of the turntable 3, the buckets 4 rotate circumferentially with the turntable 3, the buckets 4 scoop up the material when the buckets 4 rotate to the lowest point, and the material is dumped when the buckets 4 rotate to the highest point.
[0027] Preferably, the side of the bucket 4 closest to the center of the turntable 3 is an inclined plane, and the angle between the inclined plane and the tangent of the turntable 3 is 30~45°. When the bucket rotates to its highest point, the inclined plane of the bucket tilts downwards, facilitating the sliding and dumping of materials. Figure 4 As shown, the angle between the inclined plane and the tangent of the turntable in this embodiment is 30°.
[0028] Specifically, the conveyor 5 and the bucket 4 are arranged on the same side. The conveyor 5 is hinged to the upper end of the first telescopic cylinder 2 on the same side. The upper end of the first telescopic cylinder 2 is also hinged to a second telescopic cylinder 9 that drives the conveyor 5 to rotate.
[0029] Specifically, the conveyor 5 is hinged to the upper end of the first telescopic cylinder 2 via a first hinge shaft 8. The first hinge shaft 8 is horizontally positioned and perpendicular to the center line of the turntable 3. In this embodiment, a mounting bracket 7 is fixedly connected to the bearing seat 6 on the same side as the bucket 4. The first hinge shaft 8 is fixed to the middle of the conveyor 5 and rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 7, thereby rotatably connecting the conveyor 5 and the mounting bracket 7. In this embodiment, the fixed end of the second telescopic cylinder 9 is hinged to the mounting bracket 7, and the telescopic end of the second telescopic cylinder 9 is hinged to the upper end of the bottom of the conveyor 5. When the second telescopic cylinder 9 extends, it can drive the conveyor 5 to rotate to a vertically retracted state, reducing the space occupied. When the second telescopic cylinder 9 retracts, it can drive the conveyor 5 to rotate to an inclined or horizontal state. At this time, the input end of the conveyor 5 is located between the highest and lowest points of the bucket 4 rotation, thereby receiving the material dumped from the bucket.
[0030] Preferably, the first telescopic cylinder 2 has a limiting frame 10 for engaging the conveyor 5 on its side wall near the conveyor 5. In this embodiment, the limiting frame 10 includes two limiting plates, which are located on both sides of the conveyor 5 to clamp the conveyor. The two limiting plates 10 are fixedly connected to the bearing seat 6.
[0031] Specifically, in this embodiment, the driving mechanism is a drive motor 13. The drive motor 13 is fixed on the bearing seat 6 on the side of the turntable 3 away from the bucket 4. The output end of the drive motor 13 is fixed to the rotating shaft on the same side of the turntable 3, thereby driving the rotation of the turntable.
[0032] Working principle: such as Figure 5 As shown, during use, the first telescopic cylinder 2 extends and retracts, causing the turntable 3 to move up and down so that the bucket 4 can contact the material at the bottom when it rotates to its lowest point. The second telescopic cylinder 9 retracts, driving the conveyor 5 to rotate, positioning the input end of the conveyor 5 between the highest and lowest points of the bucket 4's rotation to receive material. The turntable 3 is driven to rotate by the drive motor 13, causing the bucket 4 to rotate circumferentially. When the bucket 4 rotates to its lowest point, it scoops up the material; when the bucket 4 rotates to its highest point, the material slides down the inclined surface of the bucket 4 and falls onto the conveyor 5, which then transports the material to the outside. As the operation progresses and the material height decreases, when the bucket can no longer scoop up the material, the first telescopic cylinder 2 can be driven to retract, causing the turntable 3 to move downwards, thus ensuring that the bucket 4 remains in contact with the material, making it convenient to use. When not in use, the second telescopic cylinder 9 extends, driving the conveyor 5 to rotate to a vertical position, reducing space occupation.
