[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal smelting equipment technology, and in particular to a metal smelting furnace feeder. Background Technology
[0002] During metal smelting, the extremely high temperatures near the furnace cause discomfort and significant safety hazards to personnel. Therefore, transport trolleys are typically used to move the metal to the furnace, as illustrated in patent CN219713994U. Using trolleys improves both safety and efficiency; however, existing trolleys are usually unidirectional and lack lateral transport capabilities, resulting in a short overall movement trajectory and limited space. Consequently, personnel or equipment remain relatively close to the furnace, increasing the risk of danger. Therefore, a feeding device with a larger movement trajectory is needed for adding the metal. Summary of the Invention

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features described therein can be combined with each other.
[0025] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the figures only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the actual number, shape and size of the components in the actual implementation. In the actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.
[0026] Example 1:
[0027] like Figures 1-5As shown, a metal smelting furnace feeder includes a hopper 1 for holding materials, in which scrap metal to be smelted is placed and pushed into the external smelting furnace; it also includes a support member 2, a transverse component 3, a forward component 4, and a pushing component 5; wherein the transverse component 3 is slidably disposed on the support member 2, and slides above the support member 2 along a predetermined X direction; the forward component 4 is slidably disposed on the transverse component 3, and slides on the transverse component 3 along a predetermined Y direction. In this example, both the Y and X directions are located in the horizontal plane, and the Y and X directions form a 90-degree angle; the hopper 1 is fixedly disposed above the forward component 4, and the pushing component 5 is slidably disposed inside the hopper 1. The pushing component 5 is located on the side of the hopper 1 away from the discharge part, and the side of the hopper 1 near the discharge part is set as an opening to facilitate the pushing component 5 pushing the material away from the hopper 1; the sliding direction of the pushing component 5 in the hopper 1 is the predetermined Y direction.
[0028] The lateral movement component 3 includes a first slide rail 31 and a first sliding base 32. The first slide rail 31 is fixedly disposed above the support member 2. In this example, the support member 2 is provided with two parallel first slide rails 31 to achieve better support for the first sliding base 32. The first slide rail 31 is oriented in the X direction. The first sliding base 32 is slidably disposed above the first slide rail 31. A forward movement component 4 is disposed on the first sliding base 32. A first pulley 33 is also disposed between the first sliding base 32 and the first slide rail 31. The first pulley 33 is rolledly connected to the bottom of the first sliding base 32 and is also slidably disposed on the first slide rail 31. A motor 34 is disposed on the first sliding base 32 and is drivenly connected to the first pulley 33. In this example, the first sliding base 32 is generally square-shaped. A first pulley 33 is located at each of the four corners of the bottom of the first sliding base 32. The four first pulleys 33 are respectively located on two first slide rails 31. At least one of the two first pulleys 33 on each first slide rail 31 is connected to the motor 34 for transmission. In this example, the motor 34 is a servo motor 34, which facilitates control of the sliding distance of the first sliding base 32.
[0029] The forward component 4 includes a second slide rail 41 and a second sliding base 42. The second slide rail 41 is fixedly mounted above the first sliding base 32, and the second sliding base 42 is slidably mounted on the second slide rail 41. A hopper 1 is fixedly mounted on the second sliding base 42. A pushing component 5 is provided at one end of the hopper 1, and the other end is an opening. The pushing component 5 pushes the material out of the hopper 1 through the opening. A counterweight 44 is also provided on the second sliding base 42, with the end of the counterweight 44 away from the opening on the hopper 1. This ensures that the overall center of the hopper 1 remains close to the middle of the second sliding base 42 during the material pushing process, preventing one end of the second sliding base 42 from tilting upwards and ensuring the stability of the pushing device. A second pulley 43 is provided between the second sliding base 42 and the second slide rail 41. The second pulley 43 is slidably mounted below the second sliding base 42. Through the sliding engagement of the second pulley 43, it is convenient to control the movement of the second base in the Y direction towards or away from the smelting furnace.
[0030] A first hydraulic cylinder 45 for controlling the sliding of the second sliding base 42 is also provided between the second sliding base 42 and the first sliding base 32. The two ends of the first hydraulic cylinder 45 are respectively connected to the second sliding base 42 and the first sliding base 32; the first hydraulic cylinder 45 is connected to the hydraulic station 46 provided on the second sliding base 42.
[0031] The feeding assembly 5 includes a second hydraulic cylinder 51, a feeding plate 52, and a feeding slider 53; wherein the two sides of the feeding slider 53 are slidably connected to the top of the edges of the two sides of the hopper 1 via third pulleys 54; the second hydraulic cylinder 51 is provided between the feeding slider 53 and the hydraulic station 46, and the second hydraulic cylinder 51 is connected to the hydraulic station 46; the feeding plate 52 is provided on the side of the feeding slider 53 away from the hydraulic station 46; the feeding plate 52 fits the inner shape of the hopper 1; it should be noted that in this example, the overall shape of the hopper 1 is a square trough, so the feeding plate 52 is also a square plate. To improve the pushing effect of the pusher plate 52, it is designed as a V-shaped folding plate with a bending angle ranging from 90° to 180°. The side of the pusher plate 52 furthest from the bottom of the hopper 1 is vertical, while the side closest to the bottom of the hopper 1 forms an acute angle with the hopper 1. The side of the pusher plate 52 facing the opening in the hopper 1 facilitates the scooping up of material during its movement, thus promoting better material pushing. It should be noted that a cylinder protective cover is also installed on the outside of the second hydraulic cylinder to prevent it from colliding with the material being poured into the hopper 1.
[0032] Several sensing devices 6 are respectively provided on both sides of the first slide rail 31 and the second slide rail 41 to detect the movement position of the first sliding base 32 and the second sliding base 42, so as to facilitate them stopping at the set position. The sensing devices 6 can be light curtain sensors or photoelectric sensors, etc.
[0033] During implementation, by setting the transverse component 3 and the forward component 4 to move in two directions, and cooperating with the pushing component 5 in the hopper 1, it can have a larger movement space compared with the traditional single-direction pushing equipment, so that the area for adding materials and the operators can be kept away from the smelting furnace, thus improving operational safety. By setting the first pulley 33 and the second pulley 43 to slide in cooperation with the first slide rail 31 and the second slide rail 41 respectively, it is convenient to control the movement process of the first sliding base 32 and the second sliding base 42, reducing the energy consumed during transportation and improving the overall energy efficiency.
[0034] The above description is merely a specific example of this utility model and does not constitute any limitation on this utility model. Obviously, those skilled in the art, after understanding the content and principle of this utility model, may make various modifications and changes in form and details without departing from the principle and structure of this utility model. However, these modifications and changes based on the concept of this utility model are still within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
