Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of screw collection, specifically relating to a screw collection funnel. Background Technology

[0002] In screw production and subsequent processing, traditional collection methods often struggle to balance collection range and ease of discharge. For example, common collection devices either have narrow inlets, easily causing spillage during screw collection, leading to material waste and a cluttered working environment; or their outlets are poorly designed, failing to achieve centralized discharge to the next process, impacting production efficiency. When collecting screws with significant liquid coating (e.g., after cleaning or immersion in treatment solutions), existing collection devices often fail to effectively separate the screws from the liquid, resulting in the liquid mixing with the screws and being transferred together. This can affect screw quality and cause inconvenience to subsequent processes. Furthermore, previous collection devices struggled to quickly and efficiently concentrate and output the screws after collection, resulting in low collection and transfer efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a screw collecting funnel to address the above-mentioned problems, thereby solving the issues of low collection and transfer efficiency in existing screw collecting devices.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a screw collecting funnel, including a collecting frame, an inlet at the top of the collecting frame, a bottom plate, a back plate, and two side plates, each of the two side plates being connected to a first deflecting plate that folds towards the center from opposite sides on the side away from the back plate, a front plate being connected between the two first deflecting plates, an outlet at the lower end of the front plate, a detachable baffle plate on the outlet, an inclined surface on the upper surface of the bottom plate relative to the horizontal plane, the side of the bottom plate near the back plate being higher than the side of the bottom plate near the outlet, and several handles symmetrically arranged at the upper ends of the two side plates.

[0005] Furthermore, a second deflector plate is connected to each side of the discharge port. The deflection angle of the second deflector plate relative to the side plate is smaller than that of the first deflector plate. A guide plate is provided between the two second deflector plates. The guide plate is connected to the front side of the bottom plate, and the tilt angle of the guide plate is greater than that of the bottom plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the baffle plate includes a lower half plate for inserting between the two second deflecting plates and the discharge port, and an upper half plate connecting the upper end of the lower half plate. The shape and size of the lower half plate are adapted to the discharge port. The upper half plate is provided with a protrusion. The upper half plate and the lower half plate are integrally formed.

[0007] Furthermore, several I-shaped support bases are fixed at the bottom of the collection frame.

[0008] Furthermore, there are three I-shaped support seats, two of which are located on the bottom surfaces of the base plate near the side plates and extend and protrude relative to the base plate towards the discharge port, and the other I-shaped support seat is located in the middle of the lower surface of the base plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the edges of both the inlet and outlet are provided with inwardly bent reinforcing rings.

[0010] Furthermore, the feed inlet is provided with a reinforcing rib horizontally between the tops of the two side plates on the side away from the bottom plate.

[0011] This utility model, after the first deflection plate and the front plate work together to gather the screws, pours them out from the outlet. The screws are collected through the large-opening inlet when they arrive, which increases the collection range and avoids spillage. They are then directionally output through the small-opening outlet, which facilitates the concentrated discharge to the next process. This effectively improves the collection and transfer efficiency. It can also be used for screws with a lot of liquid on their surface, allowing them to be drained before being discharged in a concentrated manner. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The present invention will be further illustrated below with reference to specific examples and accompanying drawings.

[0018] like Figures 1-3As shown, this utility model describes a screw collecting funnel, including a collecting frame. The top of the collecting frame has an inlet 1. The collecting frame includes a bottom plate 2, a back plate 3, and two side plates 4. The side plates 4 away from the back plate 3 are each connected to a first deflecting plate 41 that is folded towards the center from both sides. A front plate 5 is connected between the two first deflecting plates 41. The lower end of the front plate 5 has an outlet 51. A baffle plate 6 is detachably provided on the outlet 51. The upper surface of the bottom plate 2 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane. The side of the bottom plate 2 near the back plate 3 is higher than the side of the bottom plate 2 near the outlet 51. Several handles 42 are symmetrically provided on the upper ends of the two side plates 4.

[0019] This utility model collects incoming materials through the inlet 1. After the materials are collected in the collection frame, a lifting device is used to fix and lift the handle 42 upwards, so that the height of the handle 42 near the back plate 3 is higher than the height of the handle 42 near the outlet 51. As a result, the screws are concentrated in the collection frame between the two first deflecting plates 41. After the first deflecting plates 41 and the front plate 5 work together to gather the screws, they are poured out from the outlet 51. The screws are collected through the large inlet 1 when they arrive, which increases the collection range and avoids spillage. Then, they are directionally output through the small outlet 51, which facilitates the concentrated output to the next process, effectively improving the collection and transfer efficiency.

[0020] By setting a detachable baffle plate 6 installed on the discharge port 51, the baffle plate 6 can be installed at the discharge port 51 before the collection frame is used. After the collection frame has been used for a period of time, the baffle plate 6 can be removed and the material can be discharged in one go. Thus, this utility model can also be applied to the collection of screws with a lot of liquid on their surface (such as after cleaning or immersion in treatment liquid). When the screws are collected in the collection frame, the liquid on their surface will naturally flow downwards under the action of gravity after a period of time. Through the height difference of the bottom plate 2, it will flow towards the discharge port 51. The baffle plate 6 can block larger solid screws, but the liquid will flow out from the edge gap between the baffle plate 6 and the discharge port 51. At this time, directional collection can be carried out. After draining for a period of time and no liquid flows out, the baffle plate 6 can be opened to discharge the screws in a directional manner.

[0021] like Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment of the present invention, the two sides of the discharge port 51 are respectively connected to the second deflection plate 52. The deflection angle of the second deflection plate 52 relative to the side plate 4 is smaller than the deflection angle of the first deflection plate 41. A guide plate 53 is provided between the two second deflection plates 52. The guide plate 53 is connected to the front side of the bottom plate 2, and the tilt angle of the guide plate 53 is greater than the tilt angle of the bottom plate 2. This makes the screws gathered by the first deflection plate 41 have a large internal pressure. If they are poured directly out of the discharge port 51, they may spray out and splash to the side, causing spillage. Therefore, after being flushed out of the discharge port 51, the screws are buffered by the second deflection plate 52 to release the pressure and reduce the impact of the concentrated pouring of the material. The larger tilt angle of the guide plate 53 is conducive to the concentrated flow of liquid.

[0022] Furthermore, the second deflecting plate 52 and the guide plate 53 can be installed, fixed, or disassembled in conjunction with the baffle plate 6. Specifically, the baffle plate 6 includes a lower half plate 61 for inserting between the two second deflecting plates 52 and the discharge port 51, and an upper half plate 62 connecting the upper end of the lower half plate 61. The shape and size of the lower half plate 61 are adapted to the discharge port 51. The upper half plate 62 is provided with a protrusion 63. The upper half plate 62 and the lower half plate 61 are integrally formed. The baffle plate 6 is fixed by inserting the lower half plate 61 between the two second deflecting plates 52 and the discharge port 51. Since the deflection angle of the second deflecting plate 52 is the widest at this point, the baffle plate 6 is restricted from moving outward and can only be inserted and removed up and down. When it is necessary to remove the baffle plate 6, by pressing the protrusion 63 on the upper half plate 62 upward, the baffle plate 6 can be moved to slide until it is disengaged from the discharge port 51.

[0023] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment of the utility model, the bottom of the collection frame is fixed with several I-shaped support seats 21. The height of the bottom plate 2 is raised by the I-shaped support seats 21, so that the bottom end of the guide plate 53 will not touch the ground after it is tilted, ensuring that there is enough space for the guide plate 53 to be placed.

[0024] Furthermore, there are three I-shaped support seats 21. Two of the I-shaped support seats 21 are located on the bottom surfaces of the base plate 2 near the side plate 4 and extend and protrude relative to the base plate 2 toward the discharge port 51 to keep the overall center of gravity of the collection frame stable. The other I-shaped support seat 21 is located in the middle of the lower surface of the base plate 2 and plays a role in distributing the load on the two I-shaped support seats 21 to prevent the base plate 2 from sinking and deforming.

[0025] like Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment of the present invention, the edges of the inlet 1 and the outlet 51 are provided with inwardly bent reinforcing rings 7. By setting the reinforcing rings 7, the thickness and rigidity of the edges of the inlet 1 and the outlet 51 are increased, effectively dispersing the impact force and pressure during feeding and discharging, and preventing the inlet 1 and the outlet 51 from being deformed or damaged due to long-term impact from the material.

[0026] Furthermore, the feed inlet 1 is provided with a horizontal reinforcing rib 11 between the top ends of the two side plates 4 on the side away from the bottom plate 2. The horizontal reinforcing rib 11 between the top ends of the two side plates 4 on the side away from the bottom plate 2 further enhances the overall structural strength of the feed inlet 1, enabling the feed inlet 1 to withstand greater external forces, such as the pulling force on the feed inlet 1 when the collection frame is lifted by the handle 42, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0027] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are only used to explain the present utility model, not to limit the present utility model. Any changes, substitutions, combinations, simplifications, modifications, etc., made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
