Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cement sample storage containers, and more specifically, to a cement sample storage container. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of cement sample storage containers, the ease of installation, disassembly, and discharge of the container lid are key factors affecting the effectiveness of use. However, the sample storage containers currently on the market still have many technical defects in practical applications. These problems not only affect the efficiency of use but may also reduce the convenience of use and the safety of operation.
[0003] The primary problem is the significant shortcomings of the existing sample storage container installation method. First, traditional container lid installation requires specialized tools such as wrenches and screwdrivers. Second, the complex installation steps take a long time, reducing work efficiency. Third, the cumbersome operation process is prone to improper installation or damage to parts. These shortcomings of the traditional installation method not only increase the workload of operators but may also lead to equipment damage due to improper operation, failing to meet the efficiency requirements of modern industrial production.
[0004] More notably, there is a significant flaw in the ease of disassembling the lid. Although some equipment has achieved rapid lid installation through design improvements, this design still has significant problems: First, the simple connection structure does not take disassembly into account, resulting in inconvenient disassembly. Some equipment even cannot disassemble the lid at all, seriously affecting the maintenance and cleaning of the equipment. Second, the difficulty in disassembly increases the operating cost of the equipment. This design deficiency not only limits the maintainability of the equipment but may also affect the accuracy of sample retention due to the inability to clean in a timely manner.
[0005] Most critically, the discharge structure design is seriously inadequate, and the discharge method in the existing technology has obvious defects: First, the commonly used small-diameter discharge port design results in slow discharge speed; second, the valve control method is prone to clogging; third, clogged valves are not only difficult to clean, but may also cause equipment to be scrapped. This structural design deficiency not only affects work efficiency, but may also lead to additional maintenance costs and equipment replacement expenses due to clogging. Utility Model Content

[0031] Please see Figures 1-5 A cement sample retention container includes a sample retention container 1, a detachable lid 2 on the sample retention container 1, and a quick-release device installed on the lid 2. The quick-release device includes a snap-fit sleeve 3, a top block 4, a rotating shaft 5, a snap-fit block 6, a snap-fit rod 7, a snap-fit groove 8, a movable groove 9, and a connecting plate 10. The snap-fit sleeve 3 is detachably fitted onto the outside of the snap-fit rod 7. The top block 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the snap-fit rod 7. The connecting plate 10 is rotatably installed in the movable groove 9 via the rotating shaft 5. The snap-fit block 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 10. The snap-fit groove 8 is formed between the top block 4 and the snap-fit rod 7. Multiple movable grooves 9 are formed on the side wall of the snap-fit sleeve 3. A quick-release mechanism is provided on the outside of the snap-fit rod 7. The sample container includes an unlocking sleeve 11, a push block 12, a push spring 13, and a top plate 14. The unlocking sleeve 11 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the snap-fit sleeve 3. The push block 12 is fixedly connected to the other side of the connecting plate 10. The two ends of the push spring 13 are respectively connected to the top plate 14 and the unlocking sleeve 11. The top plate 14 is fixedly installed on the top of the snap-fit sleeve 3. A discharge device is installed below the sample container 1. The discharge device includes a sealing frame 15, a discharge port 16, and a mounting frame 17. The mounting frame 17 is set on the outside of the sample container 1. The sealing frame 15 is rotatably installed on the outside of the discharge port 16, and the two sealing frames 15 are symmetrically arranged. The discharge port 16 is fixedly set at the bottom of the sample container 1, and the discharge port 16 has a widened structure.
[0032] A gear 18 is connected to one side of the sealing frame 15, and the two gears 18 mesh with each other.
[0033] The mounting bracket 17 is detachably equipped with a fixing bracket 19, and the fixing bracket 19 is detachably equipped with a limiting bracket 20. The sealing bracket 15 is symmetrically equipped with guide rails 21 on both sides, and the guide rails 21 and the limiting brackets 20 are slidably connected.
[0034] A motor 22 is detachably mounted on the fixed frame 19, and the motor 22 is connected to one end of one of the limiting frames 20.
[0035] The lid 2 is detachably equipped with a handle 23.
[0036] In this embodiment, when the device is needed, firstly, the fixing between the lid 2 and the sample container 1 is released. Then, the lid 2 is opened using the handle 23, and cement is stored in the sample container 1. The lid 2 is then reinstalled on top of the sample container 1 to achieve cement sample storage. When the cement needs to be discharged, firstly, the external container is placed inside the mounting frame 17 and aligned with the discharge port 16. Then, the motor 22 is turned on, causing it to rotate forward. The motor 22 then drives one of the sealing frames 15 to rotate outward. The sealing frame 15 drives the gear 18 installed on the other side to rotate. Since the gear 18 here and the gear 18 on the other side of the sealing frame 15 mesh with each other, the two gears 18 will rotate in opposite directions, causing the two sealing frames 15 to open outwards synchronously. The two sealing frames 15 also drive the guide rails 21 on both sides to slide along the limiting frame 20, thereby opening the discharge port 16. Since the discharge port 16 is a widened structure design, the cement stored inside the sample container 1 will fall directly from the discharge port 16 into the container at the bottom.
[0037] Please see Figures 3-5 As a further implementation of the overall device, multiple push springs 13 are provided.
[0038] A fixing plate 24 is fixedly provided on the outside of the snap sleeve 3, and one side of the unlock sleeve 11 is attached to one side of the fixing plate 24.
[0039] Both the outer side of the snap-fit block 6 and the inner wall of the snap-fit groove 8 are arc-shaped structures with the rotating shaft 5 as the center.
[0040] More specifically, when the lid 2 needs to be removed, the unlocking sleeve 11 is pushed upwards, causing it to slide upwards. The unlocking sleeve 11, in conjunction with the top plate 14, simultaneously compresses multiple push springs 13. At the same time, the inner wall of the unlocking sleeve 11 pushes the push block 12, pressing it inwards so that it enters the movable groove 9. The push block 12 then causes the connecting plate 10 to rotate around the pivot 5. The other end of the connecting plate 10 then causes the locking block 6 to gradually rotate out of the locking groove 8, so that the locking block 6 no longer engages with the locking groove 8. The inner side of the push block 12 then contacts the outer wall of the top block 4. Touch and press the top block 4 downwards, causing the top block 4 and the locking rod 7 to move the locking groove 8 downwards. Then, pull the locking sleeve 3 and the locking rod 7 up and down respectively to remove the locking sleeve 3 and the locking rod 7. Then remove the other locking sleeves 3 and locking rods 7 one by one. Then the barrel lid 2 can be removed. When it is necessary to install the barrel lid 2, first install the barrel lid 2 on top of the sample barrel 1, making the reserved installation hole on the barrel lid 2 concentric with the reserved installation hole on the sample barrel 1. Then, let the locking rod 7 pass through the reserved installation hole on the sample barrel 1 and the barrel lid 2 from the bottom. Then, release the unlocking sleeve 11 and push the spring. 13. Pushing the unlocking sleeve 11 causes the inner wall of the unlocking sleeve 11 to press against the outer side of the locking block 6. Then, the locking block 6 drives the connecting plate 10 to rotate along the rotating shaft 5 in the movable groove 9, causing the connecting plate 10 to drive a portion of the push block 12 connected to the other end to rotate out to the outside of the locking sleeve 3. At this time, one side of the unlocking sleeve 11 is in contact with one side of the fixing plate 24. Then, the locking sleeve 3 is re-fitted onto the outside of the locking rod 7. During the fitting process, the outer wall of the top block 4 will contact the arc surface of the locking block 6, pushing the locking block 6 outward. This causes the locking block 6 to drive the mating block to rotate along the rotating shaft 5 in the movable groove 9 again through the connecting plate 10. The inner wall of the unlocking sleeve 11 has a chamfered structure design. Then, the outer wall of the connecting plate 10 pushes the unlocking sleeve 11, so that the unlocking sleeve 11 cooperates with the top plate 14 to press the push spring 13. When the snap-fit sleeve 3 is fully fitted onto the outside of the snap-fit rod 7, the push spring 13 pushes the unlocking sleeve 11 to slide and reset. Then, the unlocking sleeve 11 presses the snap-fit block 6 into the inside, so that the snap-fit block 6 drives the push block 12 to rotate and reset along the rotating shaft 5 through the connecting plate 10. Then, the snap-fit block 6 will snap into the inside of the snap-fit groove 8, so that the snap-fit sleeve 3 is engaged with the outside of the snap-fit rod 7 through the cooperation of the snap-fit block 6 and the snap-fit groove 8, thereby realizing the convenient installation of the bucket lid 2.
[0041] In summary, when using or operating the entire equipment: First, release the fixing between the lid 2 and the sample container 1. Then, open the lid 2 using the handle 23. Store the cement in the sample container 1. Then, reinstall the lid 2 onto the top of the sample container 1 to store the cement sample. When discharging the cement, first place the external container inside the mounting frame 17, aligning it with the discharge port 16. Then, turn on the motor 22 to rotate it forward. The motor 22 then drives one of the sealing frames 15 to rotate outward. Simultaneously, the sealing frame 15 drives the gear 18 installed on the other side to rotate. Since the gear 18 here and the gear 18 on one side of the other sealing frame 15 mesh with each other, the two gears 18 will rotate in opposite directions, causing the two sealing frames 15 to open outwards synchronously. The two sealing frames 15 also drive the guide rails 21 on both sides to slide along the limiting frame 20, thereby opening the discharge port 16. Since the discharge port 16 is a widened structure design, the cement stored inside the sample container 1 will fall directly from the discharge port 16 into the container at the bottom.
[0042] When the lid 2 needs to be removed, push the unlocking sleeve 11 upwards, causing it to slide upwards. The unlocking sleeve 11, in conjunction with the top plate 14, simultaneously compresses multiple push springs 13. At the same time, the inner wall of the unlocking sleeve 11 pushes the push block 12, pressing it inwards so that it enters the movable groove 9. The push block 12 then drives the connecting plate 10 to rotate around the pivot 5. The other end of the connecting plate 10 then causes the locking block 6 to gradually rotate out of the locking groove 8, so that the locking block 6 no longer engages with the locking groove 8. The inner side of the push block 12 then contacts the outer wall of the top block 4, and... Pressing the top block 4 downwards causes the top block 4 and the locking rod 7 to move the locking groove 8 downwards. Then, the locking sleeve 3 and the locking rod 7 are pulled up and down respectively to remove them. Then, remove the other locking sleeves 3 and locking rods 7 one by one. The lid 2 can then be removed. When the lid 2 needs to be installed, first install the lid 2 above the sample container 1, ensuring the pre-drilled mounting holes on the lid 2 and the sample container 1 are concentric. Then, pass the locking rod 7 through the pre-drilled mounting holes on the sample container 1 and the lid 2 from below. Finally, release the unlocking sleeve 11 and the push spring 13. Pushing the unlocking sleeve 11 causes its inner wall to press against the outer side of the locking block 6. The locking block 6 then drives the connecting plate 10 to rotate along the rotating shaft 5 in the movable groove 9. This causes the connecting plate 10 to rotate a portion of the push block 12 connected to the other end out to the outside of the locking sleeve 3. At this time, one side of the unlocking sleeve 11 is in contact with one side of the fixing plate 24. Then, the locking sleeve 3 is re-fitted onto the outside of the locking rod 7. During the fitting process, the outer wall of the top block 4 contacts the arc surface of the locking block 6, pushing the locking block 6 outwards. This causes the locking block 6 to again drive the mating block to rotate along the rotating shaft 5 in the movable groove 9 via the connecting plate 10. Due to the unlocking... The chamfered structure design of the inner wall of the locking sleeve 11 allows the outer wall of the connecting plate 10 to push the unlocking sleeve 11, causing the unlocking sleeve 11 to cooperate with the top plate 14 again to press the push spring 13. When the snap-fit sleeve 3 is fully fitted onto the outside of the snap-fit rod 7, the push spring 13 pushes the unlocking sleeve 11 to slide back to its original position. Then, the unlocking sleeve 11 presses the snap-fit block 6 into the inner side, causing the snap-fit block 6 to drive the push block 12 to rotate and reset along the rotating shaft 5 through the connecting plate 10. Then, the snap-fit block 6 will snap into the inner side of the snap-fit groove 8, so that the snap-fit sleeve 3 can be snapped onto the outside of the snap-fit rod 7 through the cooperation of the snap-fit block 6 and the snap-fit groove 8, thereby realizing the convenient installation of the bucket lid 2.
