Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of scrap steel sorting, and specifically to a scrap steel sorting and transfer device. Background Technology
[0002] Scrap steel refers to iron scrap that is not used as a product during the steel production process and steel materials from scrapped equipment. Utilizing scrap steel resources is a measure to overcome resource bottlenecks.
[0003] When recycling scrap steel resources, the first step is to crush the mixed scrap steel material using a crusher. After crushing, the crushed mixture is evenly fed onto a conveyor belt for transport. During transport, the scrap steel composition is complex, with some parts being magnetic and others non-magnetic. Separating the magnetic and non-magnetic scrap steel is crucial for subsequent processing and utilization. However, most existing scrap steel sorting devices are unable to effectively distinguish between magnetic and non-magnetic scrap steel, or they are structurally complex and costly.
[0004] Therefore, in order to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, it is necessary to design a scrap steel sorting and transfer device with a simple structure. Utility Model Content

The feeding bin is located above the left side of the conveyor belt, and a height limiting plate located on the right side of the feeding bin is provided above the conveyor belt. The magnetic separation component includes a collection box two, front and rear guide rail components, a fixing plate, a cylinder, a connecting plate, a front electromagnetic suction plate, and a rear electromagnetic suction plate. The collection box two is located on both sides of the conveyor belt. The fixing plate is driven by the front and rear guide rail components. The cylinder is located at the lower end of the fixing plate, and the connecting plate is located at the lower end of the cylinder. The front electromagnetic suction plate and the rear electromagnetic suction plate are located at the lower end of the connecting plate and are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt. The collection box one is located at the right end of the conveyor belt.
[0007] In a further improvement, the cylinder, connecting plate, front electromagnetic chuck, and rear electromagnetic chuck on the fixed plate are provided in two sets.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0018] The following is a description of the embodiments and appendices. Figures 1-2 The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below.
[0019] Example 1
[0020] A scrap steel sorting and transfer device includes: a conveyor belt 1, a feeding bin 2, a magnetic separation assembly 3, and a collection box 4. The feeding bin 2 is located above the left side of the conveyor belt 1, and a height limiting plate 5 is located above the conveyor belt 1 on the right side of the feeding bin 2. The magnetic separation assembly 3 includes a collection box 31, front and rear guide rail assemblies 32, a fixing plate 33, a cylinder 34, a connecting plate 35, a front electromagnetic suction plate 36, and a rear electromagnetic suction plate 37. The collection box 31 is located on both sides of the conveyor belt 1. The fixing plate 33 is driven by the front and rear guide rail assemblies 32. The cylinder 34 is located at the lower end of the fixing plate 33, and the connecting plate 35 is located at the lower end of the cylinder 34. The front electromagnetic suction plate 36 and the rear electromagnetic suction plate 37 are located at the lower end of the connecting plate 35 and are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt 1. The collection box 4 is located at the right end of the conveyor belt 1.
[0021] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the working principle of this utility model is as follows: the scrap steel mixture is fed from the feeding bin 2 onto the conveyor belt 1, the conveyor belt 1 transports the scrap steel mixture to the right, and the height limiting plate 5 limits the stacking height of the scrap steel mixture on the conveyor belt 1 to ensure that the scrap steel does not stack during quality inspection, thereby improving the accuracy of subsequent magnetic attraction.
[0022] When the scrap steel mixture passes through the magnetic separation component 3, the front electromagnetic suction plate 36 is driven by the front and rear guide rail components 32 to move backward to directly above the conveyor belt 1. The front electromagnetic suction plate 36 is energized to generate a magnetic field, and the cylinder 34 drives the connecting plate 35 to move downward so that the front electromagnetic suction plate 36 is at a suitable height from the conveyor belt 1, ensuring a suitable magnetic force to attract the magnetic scrap steel. The non-magnetic scrap steel continues to move to the right with the conveyor belt 1 and finally falls into the collection box 4.
[0023] When the electromagnetic chuck 36 has attracted a certain amount of magnetic scrap steel, the conveyor belt 1 pauses briefly. The front electromagnetic chuck 36 is driven forward to the second collection box 31 by the front and rear guide rail assemblies 32. At the same time, the rear electromagnetic chuck 37 moves to directly above the conveyor belt 1. The front electromagnetic chuck 36 is de-energized, causing the magnetic scrap steel to fall into the second collection box 31. The conveyor belt 1 starts running again. Then the electromagnetic chuck 37 is energized again to continue attracting magnetic scrap steel.
[0024] The magnetic separation component 3 effectively separates magnetic and non-magnetic scrap steel, improving the efficiency and accuracy of scrap steel sorting. Simultaneously, the alternating use of the front electromagnetic chuck 36 and the rear electromagnetic chuck 37 avoids overheating or other malfunctions caused by prolonged operation of a single electromagnetic chuck, significantly reducing downtime and improving overall efficiency. Collection boxes 4 and 31 collect non-magnetic and magnetic scrap steel respectively, facilitating subsequent classification, processing, and recycling.
[0025] As a further preferred embodiment, the cylinder 34, connecting plate 35, front electromagnetic chuck 36, and rear electromagnetic chuck 37 on the fixed plate 33 are provided in two sets. The two sets of front electromagnetic chuck 36 and rear electromagnetic chuck 37 are used simultaneously to perform two magnetic separations of the scrap steel, separating the magnetic scrap steel from the non-magnetic scrap steel, thus improving the sorting coverage and reducing the possibility of missed sorting. Furthermore, if the two sets of electromagnetic chuck 36 and rear electromagnetic chuck 37 are used alternately, the conveyor belt can continue sorting without stopping.
[0026] As a further preferred embodiment, the height limiting plate 5 includes a vertical plate 51 and an L-shaped baffle 52. The L-shaped baffle 52 is slidably disposed at the lower end of the vertical plate 51, and a locking bolt 53 for fixing the L-shaped baffle 52 is threaded onto the vertical plate 51. The L-shaped baffle 52 can be adjusted up and down according to the particle size of the scrap steel mixture. The locking bolt 53 fixes the L-shaped baffle 52 to the vertical plate 51, ensuring the stability of the height limiting plate 5.
[0027] As a further preferred embodiment, the feeding hopper 2 is provided with a conical guide opening 21. The conical guide opening 21 can evenly guide the scrap steel mixture onto the conveyor belt 1.
[0028] As a further preferred embodiment, both the first collection box 4 and the second collection box 31 are equipped with casters 6 at their bottom. The casters 6 allow the first collection box 4 and the second collection box 31 to be moved easily. After the scrap steel is sorted, the casters 6 can be used to move the collection boxes to a designated location for subsequent processing or transportation.
[0029] The preferred embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concept of this utility model without creative effort. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the concept of this utility model through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation on the basis of existing technology should be within the scope of protection defined by the claims.
