Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic batching technology, and in particular to a fully automatic batching cart. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the batching equipment used in industrial production is almost entirely composed of metering devices such as hopper scales, belt scales, and screw scales. These batching devices are fixedly installed in the production process to weigh and transport materials via other equipment such as belts, screws, and chutes. Because the raw materials prepared according to the formula need to pass through other equipment for transportation, there may be instances of material leakage or residual material in the equipment during transportation. This can affect the actual proportion of raw materials entering the production mixing vessel, causing discrepancies between the actual proportions and the designed formula, thus leading to quality issues in the product.

[0003] In the process of batching multiple raw materials, multiple weighing and metering devices are usually used to measure each raw material separately. Due to certain differences in characteristics between the weighing and metering devices (which may be due to differences in sensor performance, installation accuracy, metering control methods, etc.), the metering standards of each raw material will be different, resulting in deviations between the actual raw material ratio and the designed process ratio, which will also affect the production quality of the product. Therefore, we provide a fully automatic batching cart. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a fully automatic batching cart.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a fully automatic batching vehicle, comprising: a frame, radars mounted on each of the four support columns of the frame, warning lights mounted on the frame, a drive motor mounted in the frame, a battery box between two drive motors, a vibrating hopper mounted on the frame, a weighing sensor mounted on the frame, a metering hopper mounted on the weighing sensor, an exhaust port mounted on the metering hopper, a feed valve mounted on the metering hopper, a telescopic device mounted on the outer surface of the feed valve, a telescopic inlet mounted on the telescopic device, a control box mounted on one side of the frame, and a discharge valve mounted at the bottom of the metering hopper.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, the radar is mounted on each pillar of the chassis, the warning light is mounted on the chassis, and the drive motor is mounted on the chassis to drive the wheels.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the battery box is fixed to the frame to supply power to the drive motor, the outer surface of the metering hopper is nested in the frame, and the weighing sensor is connected to the frame on the outer surface of the metering hopper.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, one end of the exhaust port is connected to the metering hopper, one end of the telescopic device is fixedly connected to the frame, and one end of the telescopic feed port is fixed to the telescopic device.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, one end of the feed valve is connected to the metering hopper, and one end of the retractable feed port is connected to the feed valve.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, one end of the discharge valve is connected to the bottom end of the metering hopper, and the outer surface of the control box is connected to the frame.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] This invention reduces construction investment, as one batching cart can replace multiple batching and metering devices and conveying equipment. In addition to reducing investment in process equipment, it also reduces the equipment failure rate of the production line and the connection problems between various devices. The batching accuracy is high, and the total amount and proportion of raw materials in the formula are more stable than other batching methods. The batching cart adopts a fully automatic operation mode, which reduces the labor intensity of manual batching operations and avoids batching errors caused by human factors, thereby further improving its practicality in actual use.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] like Figure 1-5As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a fully automatic batching cart, comprising: a frame 1, radar 2 mounted on each of the four support columns of the frame 1, warning lights 3 mounted on the frame 1, drive motors 4 mounted in the frame 1, a battery box 5 between two drive motors 4, a vibrating device 6 mounted on the frame 1, a weighing sensor 7 mounted on the frame 1, a metering hopper 8 mounted on the weighing sensor 7, an exhaust port 9 mounted on the metering hopper 8, a feed valve 12 mounted on the metering hopper 8, a telescopic device 11 mounted on the outer surface of the feed valve 12, a telescopic feed inlet 10 mounted on the telescopic device 11, a control box 14 mounted on one side of the frame 1, a discharge valve 13 mounted at the bottom of the metering hopper 8, and radar 2. The following components are installed on each pillar of the frame 1: a warning light 3, a drive motor 4, and a battery box 5. The outer surface of the metering hopper 8 is nested in the frame 1. The weighing sensor 7 is connected to the frame 1 on the outer surface of the metering hopper 8. One end of the exhaust port 9 is connected to the metering hopper 8. One end of the telescopic device 11 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. One end of the telescopic feed port 10 is fixed to the telescopic device 11. One end of the feed valve 12 is connected to the metering hopper 8. One end of the telescopic feed port 10 is connected to the feed valve 12. One end of the discharge valve 13 is connected to the bottom of the metering hopper 8. The outer surface of the control box 14 is connected to the frame 1.

[0027] In this embodiment, the metering hopper 8 serves as the metering device and raw material loading container of the batching vehicle. It is mounted on the main frame of the vehicle frame 1 via four semi-floating weighing sensors 7, without direct contact with the frame 1. The upper part of the metering hopper 8 is equipped with a vertically retractable feed inlet, and the retraction device 11 is driven by a cylinder or electric device. The lower part of the feed inlet is connected to the metering hopper 8 via a feed switch valve and a retractable feed inlet 10 through a telescopic bellows. The retraction and expansion of the metering hopper 8 does not affect the weighing data of the hopper. An exhaust port 9 with a filter screen is installed at the corner of the metering hopper 8. Dust collection hoods are designed at the corresponding positions of each raw material bin, which are aligned with the upper part of the exhaust port 9 to collect leaked dust and create a slight negative pressure inside the hopper. When batching materials into the metering hopper 8, the air inside the closed hopper can be discharged. The bottom of the metering hopper 8 is equipped with a discharge valve 13, and a discharge vibrating device 6 is installed in front of and behind the discharge valve 13 to discharge the raw materials in the vehicle cleanly at the designated unloading position.

[0028] The main body of the chassis 1 is designed with steel profiles. The upper part of the chassis 1 is equipped with a support bracket for the drive device of the hopper telescopic feed inlet, preventing the feed inlet from touching external objects and affecting the batching and metering when it extends upwards for loading. The chassis 1 is equipped with red rotating warning lights 3 at the front and rear, which flash as the batching vehicle moves. Two radars 2 are installed at the front and rear of the chassis 1, with the installation height determined according to the site conditions. These radars are used to detect obstacles changing during movement. When an obstacle is detected in the direction of travel, the batching vehicle automatically stops and waits, emitting a flashing alarm signal on the indicator light of the control box 14. The batching vehicle can be driven by a drive motor 4, enabling free movement. The actual configuration depends on the power supply method of the production environment. Mains power is preferred, supplied via a sliding contact line or cable. When AC mains power is unavailable, the batching vehicle can be powered by batteries. Battery boxes 5 are installed at both the front and rear ends of the chassis 1, where two sets of batteries can be sealed and housed. The battery boxes have an IP65 protection rating.

[0029] Working principle:

[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the metering hopper 8 is an important component of the batching vehicle. Serving as both the metering device and the raw material loading container, it is mounted on the main frame of the chassis 1. Precise measurements are achieved using four semi-floating load cells 7. These sensors are cleverly designed to not directly contact the chassis 1, preventing any external interference from affecting weighing accuracy. The upper part of the metering hopper 8 is equipped with a retractable feed inlet. The retractable device 11 is driven by a cylinder or electric actuator to adapt to different loading requirements. A feed switch valve is installed at the connection between the feed inlet and the metering hopper 8, and it is connected to the retractable feed inlet 10 via a telescopic bellows, ensuring that the weighing accuracy of the hopper is not affected during loading.

[0031] To ensure proper air discharge from the hopper, exhaust ports 9 with filters are located at the corners of the metering hopper 8. These exhaust ports 9 are equipped with dust collection hoods above corresponding positions in each raw material bin to effectively collect leaked dust and create a slight negative pressure environment inside the hopper, thus expelling air from the enclosed hopper during material feeding. The bottom of the metering hopper 8 is also equipped with a discharge valve 13, with discharge vibrating devices 6 installed before and after the discharge valve 13 to ensure that the raw materials inside the vehicle are completely discharged at the designated unloading position.

[0032] The main body of the chassis 1 is constructed with robust steel profiles, providing stable support. A drive unit bracket for the hopper's telescopic feed inlet is located on the upper part of the chassis 1 to prevent the feed inlet from contacting external objects when extending upwards for loading, ensuring the safety of batching and metering. To enhance driving safety, the chassis 1 is equipped with red rotating warning lights 3 at the front and rear, emitting flashing warnings when the batching vehicle is in motion. Furthermore, two radars 2 are installed at the front and rear of the chassis 1 respectively to detect obstacles during travel and adjust their installation height according to the site conditions. When an obstacle is detected in the direction of travel, the batching vehicle automatically stops, and a flashing alarm signal is emitted on the indicator lights of the control box 14.

[0033] The mixing vehicle's walking power system can be configured with drive motor 4 according to site conditions, enabling the mixing vehicle to move freely. Power supply is preferentially based on AC mains power, supplied via a sliding contact line or cable; if AC mains power is not feasible, the mixing vehicle can use battery power. Battery boxes 5 are installed at both ends of the frame 1, with an IP65 protection rating, and can safely seal two sets of batteries.

[0034] The batching vehicle is equipped with an advanced 5G communication module, supporting multiple communication methods such as WiFi, 4G, and 5G for data exchange with the central control room. The on-board system can transmit the vehicle's location, load, operating status, and other collectable data to the central control room in real time, and can also receive production instructions from the central control room.

[0035] Depending on the site environment requirements, the batching vehicle can be equipped with either a 5G positioning system or a fixed landmark wireless radio frequency positioning system to achieve precise target guidance and location positioning. The on-board electronic control system I / O module is responsible for collecting signals from the hopper weighing sensor 7 and processing them into valid measurement data. In addition, the electronic control system receives input signals such as the status of the motor drive device, the status of the walking motor, the on / off status of the feed valve 12, signals from the obstacle detection radar 2, and laser alignment signals from the batching port.

[0036] The CPU of the batching cart's controller can calculate and process these input signals and output corresponding control commands. Combined with the production commands issued by the central control room, the batching cart can automatically position and move, opening and closing the raw material silo valves in the required sequence to achieve precise quantitative batching. After batching is completed, the batching cart automatically travels to the mixing and kneading equipment for feeding. The entire production process is autonomously controlled by the batching cart without manual intervention.

[0038] This utility model is intended to cover all such substitutions, modifications, and variations that fall within the broad scope of the appended claims. Therefore, any omissions, modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
