Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of material cooling technology, and in particular relates to a portable air-cooled cooling device. Background Technology

[0002] In daily production and construction, cooling of medium and high temperature materials is a very common and crucial operation. In the existing technology, most cooling devices used to cool materials are large in size and usually fixed in location, making them inconvenient to move.

[0003] In field operations such as road construction and temporary building construction, the temporary and mobile nature of these operations—for example, in road construction, the work site changes in real time as the road is being built—makes traditional cooling equipment unsuitable for the requirements of field operations. Moreover, most existing cooling equipment relies on water cooling, and field operations often face problems such as water scarcity due to the complex environment.

[0004] Therefore, designing a mobile cooling device that does not rely on water resources is of great significance for field operations. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the related technologies, this utility model provides a portable air-cooled cooling device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0006] This utility model provides a portable air-cooled cooling device, comprising:

[0007] The frame has casters installed underneath.

[0008] The cooling cylinder is mounted on the frame and is oriented horizontally. The cooling cylinder can rotate along the horizontal axis. One end of the cooling cylinder is provided with a feed inlet, and the other end of the cooling cylinder is provided with a discharge outlet and a heat dissipation outlet. The cooling cylinder is provided with a pusher plate, which is used to convey the material from the feed inlet toward the discharge outlet.

[0009] The power unit, mounted on the frame, is used to drive the cooling cylinder to rotate;

[0010] A cooling fan is installed on the frame. The cooling fan is located at the end of the cooling cylinder where the heat dissipation port is located, and the cooling fan is positioned close to the heat dissipation port to cool the material.

[0011] When the power unit drives the cooling cylinder to rotate, the pusher blades convey the material inside the cooling cylinder toward the discharge port. During the material conveying process, the cooling fan cools the material through the heat dissipation vent.

[0012] This technical solution involves installing casters at the bottom of the frame to move the frame, thereby moving the cooling device. A cooling cylinder is installed to transport the material, and heat dissipation vents are provided within the cylinder. The heat carried by the material heats the air inside the cooling cylinder, creating hot air that dissipates through the vents, thus cooling the material. A cooling fan is installed at the vents to draw in the hot air from the cooling cylinder, accelerating its flow and further enhancing the heat dissipation effect.

[0013] In some embodiments, the heat dissipation vent is located near the top of the cooling cylinder, and the discharge port is located near the bottom of the cooling cylinder; the cooling fan absorbs hot air from inside the cooling cylinder through the heat dissipation vent.

[0014] In some embodiments, the cooling fan includes an air inlet and an air outlet, with the air inlet facing the heat dissipation port and the air outlet facing upwards.

[0015] In some embodiments, the pusher blades are positioned downwards towards the end of the cooling cylinder where the outlet is located; multiple pusher blades are provided, and the multiple pusher blades are arranged along the length of the cooling cylinder and together define a spiral structure.

[0016] This technical solution designs the pusher blades so that when the cooling cylinder rotates, the pusher blades exert a pushing force on the material towards the end of the cooling cylinder with the discharge port, thereby realizing the movement of the material. Multiple pusher blades are designed and arranged along the length of the cooling cylinder and together form a spiral structure to realize the conveying of material in the cooling cylinder.

[0017] In some embodiments, the cooling cylinder is connected to a feed funnel, which is located at the feed inlet and communicates with the inside of the cooling cylinder.

[0018] This technical solution facilitates feeding material into the cooling cylinder by setting a feeding funnel at the inlet.

[0019] In some embodiments, the cooling cylinder is connected to a discharge component, which is located at the discharge port and is inclined downwards.

[0020] This technical solution involves setting a discharge component at the discharge port, with the discharge component tilted downwards to guide the material out of the port.

[0021] In some embodiments, the power assembly is connected to a first connector, and a second connector is provided on the outer periphery of the cooling cylinder. The second connector cooperates with the first connector to enable the power assembly to drive the cooling cylinder to rotate.

[0022] In some embodiments, a counterweight mechanism is also provided at the bottom of the frame, which is located in the middle part of the frame and is used to balance the frame.

[0023] This technical solution uses a counterweight mechanism at the bottom of the frame to balance the frame, preventing accidents such as vibration and overturning, and increasing the reliability and stability of the cooling device.

[0024] In some embodiments, the counterweight mechanism includes a slide rail, a counterweight block, and a hydraulic cylinder. The slide rail is installed at the bottom of the frame and is arranged along the length of the cooling cylinder. The counterweight block is slidably connected to the slide rail and can slide along the slide rail. The hydraulic cylinder is installed on the frame and connected to the counterweight block for driving the counterweight block to slide along the slide rail.

[0025] In some embodiments, a lifting mechanism is provided at the bottom of the frame. There are two lifting mechanisms, which are provided at the two ends of the frame along the length of the cooling cylinder. The lifting mechanisms are used to drive the frame to lift.

[0026] This technical solution increases the flexibility of the cooling device by setting up a lifting mechanism to raise and lower the frame.

[0027] Based on the above technical solution, the mobile air-cooled cooling device in this embodiment of the utility model uses air cooling to cool materials, and is easy to move, making it suitable for temporary field operations; moreover, the overall structure is simple and easy to operate.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0041] The terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first," "second," or "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0042] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0043] As attached Figures 1-4 As shown, in an illustrative embodiment of the portable air-cooled cooling device of this utility model, the portable air-cooled cooling device includes a frame 1, a cooling cylinder 2, a power component 3, and a cooling fan 7.

[0044] In the aforementioned portable air-cooled cooling device, the frame 1 is used to support the cooling cylinder 2, the power unit 3, and the cooling fan 7; the frame 1 is equipped with casters 4, which are used to drive the frame 1 to move, thereby realizing the movement of the entire cooling device.

[0045] It should be noted that the frame 1 can be connected to a tractor, which applies tension to the frame 1 to make the moving wheels 4 roll; the frame 1 can also be connected to a traction assembly, which drives the frame 1 to move, making the moving wheels 4 roll, thereby realizing the movement of the frame 1. This is a conventional technical means in this field and will not be described in detail here.

[0046] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the movable wheels 4 are configured in two sets, with the two sets of movable wheels 4 correspondingly located at both ends of the frame 1 along the direction of movement, so that the frame 1 is subjected to balanced forces, thereby ensuring the stability of the frame 1 during movement.

[0047] In the aforementioned portable air-cooled cooling device, the cooling cylinder 2 has a defined receiving cavity for accommodating materials. The cooling cylinder 2 is installed on the frame 1 and is arranged horizontally. One end of the cooling cylinder 2 is provided with a feed inlet, and the other end of the cooling cylinder 2 is provided with a discharge outlet. The feed inlet and the discharge outlet are respectively connected to the receiving cavity so that the material enters the receiving cavity through the feed inlet and exits the receiving cavity through the discharge outlet.

[0048] In some embodiments, the length direction of the cooling cylinder 2 is aligned with the movement direction of the frame 1.

[0049] In some embodiments, the cooling cylinder 2 is connected to a feeding funnel 21, which is located at the feeding port and communicates with the receiving cavity. By providing the feeding funnel 21, it is convenient for the material to enter the receiving cavity from the feeding port.

[0050] In some embodiments, the cooling cylinder 2 is connected to a discharge member 22, which is located at the discharge port and is inclined downward. The discharge member 22 is used to guide the material in the receiving cavity out of the receiving cavity.

[0051] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the cooling cylinder 2 can rotate along the horizontal axis, and the cooling cylinder 2 is provided with a pusher plate 23, which is used to transport the material from the feed port to the discharge port; there are multiple pusher plates 23, which are arranged along the length of the cooling cylinder 2, and the multiple pusher plates 23 together form a spiral structure.

[0052] like Figure 2 As shown, when the cooling cylinder 2 rotates, the spiral structure formed by multiple pusher plates 23 pushes the material from the feed port toward the end of the cooling cylinder 2 where the discharge port is located.

[0053] In some embodiments, the pusher plate 23 is disposed downward toward the end of the cooling cylinder 2 where the discharge port is located, so that when the cooling cylinder 2 rotates, the pusher plate 23 generates a pushing force on the material toward the end of the cooling cylinder 2 where the discharge port is located, thereby realizing the conveying of the material.

[0054] The cooling cylinder 2 is equipped with a heat dissipation port, which is located at the end of the cooling cylinder 2 where the discharge port is located. When medium- or high-temperature materials enter the cooling cylinder 2, the heat carried by the materials will heat the air inside the cooling cylinder 2 to form hot air, which will leave through the heat dissipation port.

[0055] It should be noted that the heat dissipation vent is located near the top of the cooling cylinder 2 and above the discharge port. This is because hot air has a low density and tends to rise. By placing the heat dissipation vent near the top of the cooling cylinder 2, it is easier for hot air to leave the containment cavity.

[0056] It should also be noted that the discharge port is located near the bottom of the cooling cylinder 2, or the discharge port is located at the bottom of the cooling cylinder 2, so that the material in the receiving cavity can leave the receiving cavity under the action of gravity.

[0057] In the aforementioned portable air-cooled cooling device, the power component 3 is used to drive the cooling cylinder 2 to rotate; the power component 3 is installed on the frame 1, the power component 3 is connected to the first connector 31, and the outer periphery of the cooling cylinder 2 is provided with a second connector 24, the second connector 24 and the first connector 31 cooperate with each other so that the power component 3 drives the cooling cylinder 2 to rotate.

[0058] It should be noted that the power assembly 3 is a rotary motor, pneumatic motor or other components. The first connecting member 31 is located on the rotating shaft of the power assembly 3. The power assembly 3 drives the first connecting member 31 to rotate, thereby causing the second connecting member 24 to rotate, and thus realizing the rotation of the cooling cylinder 2.

[0059] In some embodiments, the first connector 31 and the second connector 24 are gears, and the power assembly 3 drives the cooling cylinder 2 to rotate through the meshing between the two gears.

[0060] In other embodiments, the first connecting member 31 is a rolling wheel, the second connecting member 24 is an annular raceway, the power component 3 drives the rolling wheel to rotate, and the rolling wheel rotates relative to the annular raceway. Since the power component 3 is installed on the frame 1, the rolling wheel can only rotate on its own axis, thereby causing the annular raceway to rotate, which in turn causes the annular raceway to drive the cooling cylinder 2 to rotate.

[0061] To ensure the stability and reliability of the rotation of the cooling cylinder 2, two second connecting parts 24 are provided, arranged along the length of the cooling cylinder 2. Two first connecting parts 31 are also provided, with each of the two first connecting parts 31 corresponding to one of the two second connecting parts 24. One first connecting part 31 is connected to the power assembly 3, and the other first connecting part 31 is connected to the frame 1 and rotates relative to the frame 1, so that the frame 1 supports the cooling cylinder 2 through the cooperation of the first connecting parts 31 and the second connecting parts 24, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the rotation of the cooling cylinder 2.

[0062] In some embodiments, two first connectors 31 are respectively mounted on the frame 1 so that the frame 1 supports the first connectors 31, thereby ensuring the stability of the rotation of the first connectors 31 and thus ensuring the stability of the rotation of the cooling cylinder 2. It should be noted that the first connectors 31 are mounted on the frame by brackets and rotate relative to the frame 1. This is a conventional technique in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0063] In the aforementioned portable air-cooled cooling device, the cooling fan 7 is used to cool the material; the cooling fan 7 is installed on the frame 1 and is located at the heat dissipation port to dissipate heat from the material inside the cooling cylinder 2.

[0064] like Figure 2 As shown, the cooling fan 7 includes an air inlet 71 and an air outlet 72. The air inlet 71 is set facing the heat dissipation port, and the air outlet 72 is set upward. When the cooling fan 7 is running, it draws out the hot air in the receiving cavity through the heat dissipation port, and enters the cooling fan 7 through the air inlet 71. Finally, the hot air is discharged upward through the air outlet 72.

[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, when the material is conveyed in the cooling cylinder 2, the hot air generated by the material also flows in the direction of material conveying. The hot air is drawn in by the cooling fan 7 through the air inlet 71 and discharged upward through the air outlet 72.

[0066] The aforementioned portable air-cooled cooling device also includes a lifting mechanism 5, which is installed at the bottom of the frame 1. The lifting mechanism 5 is used to lift the frame 1 to adjust the height of the frame 1, thereby increasing the flexibility of the cooling device in operation.

[0067] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 5 is also integrated with an anchoring mechanism to fix the frame 1, prevent the frame 1 from vibrating or overturning, and increase the reliability and stability of the cooling device.

[0068] like Figures 1-4As shown, there are two lifting mechanisms 5. The two lifting mechanisms 5 are set at both ends of the frame 1 along the length of the cooling cylinder 2 so that the frame 1 is subjected to uniform force, ensuring the lifting effect of the frame 1, and also increasing the fixing effect of the frame 1.

[0069] When the aforementioned portable air-cooled cooling device is in operation, the lifting mechanism 5 adjusts the frame 1 to the required height, and then the anchoring mechanism fixes the frame 1 at the required height, which can ensure the stability of the frame 1 when the cooling cylinder 2 and the cooling fan 7 are working.

[0070] It should be noted that the lifting mechanism 5 and the anchoring mechanism are conventional technical means in this field, and will not be described in detail here.

[0071] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the aforementioned portable air-cooled cooling device also includes a counterweight mechanism 6, which is located in the middle part of the frame 1 and is used to maintain the balance of the frame 1. When the material is conveyed in the cooling cylinder 2, the cooling cylinder 2 may become uneven, which will cause the frame 1 to be subjected to uneven force along the material conveying direction, and thus cause the frame 1 to tilt. By installing the counterweight mechanism 6 on the frame 1, the balance of the frame 1 can be maintained, preventing the frame 1 from vibrating, overturning or other accidents, and increasing the reliability and stability of the cooling device.

[0072] like Figure 4 As shown, the counterweight mechanism 6 includes a slide rail 63, a counterweight block 61, and a hydraulic cylinder 62. The slide rail 63 is installed at the bottom of the frame 1 and is arranged along the length of the cooling cylinder 2. The counterweight block 61 is slidably connected to the slide rail 63 and can slide along the slide rail 63. The hydraulic cylinder 62 is installed on the frame 1 and is connected to the counterweight block 61, and is used to drive the counterweight block 61 to slide along the slide rail 63.

[0073] The working principle of the counterweight mechanism 6 is as follows: when the material is conveyed in the cooling cylinder 2, if the material is concentrated at the end of the cooling cylinder 2 near the feed port, resulting in a larger weight at the feed port end, the hydraulic cylinder 62 drives the counterweight block 61 to move towards the end of the cooling cylinder 2 near the discharge port, so that the frame 1 is subjected to balanced force; similarly, if the material is concentrated at the end of the cooling cylinder 2 near the feed port, resulting in a larger weight at the discharge port end, the hydraulic cylinder 62 drives the counterweight block 61 to move towards the end of the cooling cylinder 2 near the feed port.

[0074] like Figure 4 As shown, the aforementioned portable air-cooled cooling device also includes a gravity sensor 9, which is used to detect the weight of the cooling cylinder 2; two gravity sensors 9 are provided, with the two weight sensors corresponding to the two ends of the cooling cylinder 2.

[0075] In some embodiments, two gravity sensors 9 are provided corresponding to two first connectors 31.

[0076] By setting a gravity sensor 9 to detect the weight of the cooling cylinder 2, the counterweight mechanism 6 can work better based on the detection results of the gravity sensor 9.

[0077] In some embodiments, the gravity sensor 9 is connected to a controller 8, which is also connected to a hydraulic cylinder 62. The controller 8 is configured to control the hydraulic cylinder 62 to operate based on the detection result of the gravity sensor 9, so as to automate the operation of the counterweight mechanism 6.

[0078] The working principle of the above-mentioned portable air-cooled cooling device is as follows: the material enters the receiving cavity through the feed hopper 21 and the feed port. The power component 3 drives the cooling cylinder 2 to rotate. The material in the receiving cavity is conveyed to the discharge port under the action of the pusher plate 23. The heat generated by the medium and high temperature material causes hot air to be generated in the receiving cavity. As the material is conveyed, the hot air also moves towards the end of the cooling cylinder 2 where the discharge port is set. The cooling fan 7 absorbs the hot air in the receiving cavity from the heat dissipation port, thereby cooling the material in the receiving cavity. The cooled material is discharged from the receiving cavity through the discharge component 22 from the discharge port.

[0079] The aforementioned portable air-cooled cooling device uses air to cool materials, eliminating the need for water resources. It features a simple overall structure, easy operation, low failure rate, convenient maintenance, easy mobility, and high operational stability.

[0080] Finally, it should be noted that the various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, with each embodiment focusing on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other.

[0081] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the specific implementation of this utility model or equivalent substitutions can be made to some technical features without departing from the spirit of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the technical solution claimed by this utility model.
