Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of material storage equipment, and in particular to a weld waste storage box that is easy to unload. Background Technology

[0002] In the steel pipe production process, strip steel is gradually processed into a tubular shape through a rolling mill. Then, the edges of the steel pipe are welded into shape through a high-frequency welding process. After welding, a weld strip is formed on the surface of the steel pipe. Therefore, the excess weld strip waste needs to be scraped off cleanly with a milling cutter.

[0003] In conventional production, weld waste is uniformly packed into storage boxes, which are then hoisted to the waste disposal site by overhead crane for unloading. During unloading, the storage boxes need to be tilted to empty the waste or the waste inside needs to be removed directly using a grab handle. These methods are not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also pose safety hazards when tilting the storage boxes. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a storage box that facilitates and ensures safe unloading to meet production requirements. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a weld waste storage box that is easy to unload.

[0005] The present invention provides a weld waste storage box that is easy to unload, and adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A weld waste storage box for easy unloading includes a side plate, a lifting lug fixedly connected to the top edge of the side plate, and a bottom plate rotatably connected to the bottom edge of the side plate via a pivot. The end of the pivot protrudes from the end face of the bottom plate, and a lever plate is fixedly connected between the end of the pivot and the end face of the bottom plate. A limiting mechanism for restricting the rotation of the lever plate is provided on the side plate. The limiting mechanism includes a C-shaped clamping plate that slides on the lever plate and a driving component that drives the C-shaped clamping plate to move back and forth.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, during the loading and hoisting of weld waste, the C-shaped clamp is fitted onto the lever plate, thereby restricting the rotation of the lever plate and consequently the rotation of the bottom plate of the storage box. When unloading the waste, the drive unit drives the C-shaped clamp to detach from the lever plate. After the restriction on the lever plate is released, under the action of the gravity of the waste and the gravity of the bottom plate of the storage box, the bottom plate of the storage box flips downward along the rotating axis, thereby opening the storage box and the waste automatically falls to the unloading site. Then, the storage box is hoisted to the use site. First, the bottom plate of the storage box is manually rotated to a certain extent, and then the storage box is lowered. The bottom plate of the storage box is automatically closed by the ground support. Then, the drive unit drives the C-shaped clamp to be fitted back onto the lever plate. The unloading operation of this storage box is very convenient. The waste can be effectively unloaded without tilting the storage box. Moreover, during the unloading process, the staff can stay away from the unloading site, effectively solving the problem of safety hazards during the unloading process.

[0008] Optionally, the drive unit includes a vertical plate fixed to the top surface of the C-shaped clamp, an electric push rod horizontally mounted on the outer wall of the box side plate, the end of the electric push rod being connected to the vertical plate, and the electric push rod being equipped with a battery and a controller.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the battery powers the electric push rod, which is controlled by the controller to extend and retract, thereby driving the C-shaped clamping plate to move through the vertical plate. This driving component is convenient and efficient to control.

[0010] Optionally, a support rail is horizontally fixed to the outer wall of the side panel of the box, and a support wheel is rotatably connected to the top of the vertical plate, with the support wheel rolling and supporting the top surface of the support rail.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the C-shaped clamp plate is stabilized by the cooperation of the support rail and the support wheel.

[0012] Optionally, a protective plate is horizontally fixed to the outer wall of the box side panel, and the protective plate is located above the support wheel and parallel to the support guide rail.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the protective plate provides daily protection for the support wheels.

[0014] Optionally, a protective shell is fixed to the outer wall of the side panel of the box, and the electric push rod and the battery are located inside the protective shell.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the protective shell provides daily protection for the electric push rod and the battery.

[0016] Optionally, guide wheels are rotatably mounted on the end of the C-shaped clamp arm plate, and the guide wheels are located on the upper and lower sides of the dial plate and are in rolling contact with the dial plate.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, guide wheels are set to reduce the frictional resistance between the C-shaped clamp and the lever plate, making it easier for the C-shaped clamp to detach from or be fitted onto the lever plate. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 3 The present invention will be described in further detail below.

[0023] This utility model discloses a weld waste storage box that facilitates unloading. (See reference...) Figures 1-3 The weld waste storage box for easy unloading includes a rectangular frame-shaped side panel 1. Multiple lifting lugs 2 are evenly fixed to the top edge of the side panel 1. Two openable and closable bottom panels 3 are provided below the side panel 1. A rotating shaft 4 is fixed to the long side of the bottom panel 3. The bottom panel 3 is rotatably connected to the bottom edge of the side panel 1 through the rotating shaft 4.

[0024] Reference Figures 1-3 The end of the rotating shaft 4 protrudes from the outer edge of the bottom plate 3. A rectangular lever 5 is fixed between the end of the rotating shaft 4 and the outer edge of the bottom plate 3. The bottom of the side plate 1 is equipped with a limiting mechanism 6 for limiting the rotation of the lever 5, i.e., for limiting the bottom plate 3.

[0025] Reference Figures 1-3 The limiting mechanism 6 includes a C-shaped clamping plate 60 that is slidably sleeved on the ends of the lever plate 5 and the rotating shaft 4. The C-shaped clamping plate 60 is horizontally arranged and its opening faces the direction of the joint between the two bottom plates 3. A vertical plate 61 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the C-shaped clamping plate 60. The vertical plate 61 is a right-angled triangle. One right-angled side of the vertical plate 61 is connected to the C-shaped clamping plate 60. An electric push rod 62 is horizontally connected to the other right-angled side of the vertical plate 61. The electric push rod 62 is equipped with a battery 63 and a controller. By receiving signal commands, the electric push rod 62 is driven to make corresponding extension and retraction movements. The electric push rod 62, the battery 63 and the vertical plate 61 constitute the driving component that drives the C-shaped clamping plate 60 to move back and forth.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-3 The electric push rod 62 and the battery 63 are installed on the outer wall of the side panel 1. A support rail 64 is horizontally fixed to the outer wall of the side panel 1. The support rail 64 is located above the C-shaped clamp 60. A support wheel 65 is rotatably installed on the top of the vertical plate 61. The support wheel 65 rolls and supports the top surface of the support rail 64. A protective plate 66 is also horizontally fixed to the outer wall of the side panel 1. The protective plate 66 is located above the support wheel 65 and parallel to the support rail 64. The protective plate 66 provides daily protection for the support wheel 65.

[0027] Reference Figure 3A guide wheel 67 is rotatably mounted on the end of the C-shaped clamp 60 arm plate near the opening. The guide wheel 67 is located on the upper and lower sides of the lever 5 and rolls in contact with the lever 5 to reduce the frictional resistance between the C-shaped clamp 60 and the lever 5, making it easier for the C-shaped clamp 60 to detach from or be fitted onto the lever 5. A protective shell 68 for protecting the electric push rod 62 and the battery 63 is also fixed to the outer wall of the side panel 1. The electric push rod 62 and the battery 63 are both located inside the protective shell 68.

[0028] The implementation principle of the weld waste storage box for easy unloading in this utility model embodiment is as follows: During normal storage of weld waste or during lifting, the C-shaped clamp 60 is fitted onto the lever 5, thereby restricting the rotation of the lever 5 and ensuring that the bottom plate 3 of the box is in a stable closed state. The vertical plate 61, the support wheel 65 and the support guide rail 64 work together to ensure the stability of the C-shaped clamp 60.

[0029] When the storage box is unloaded, the staff controls the electric push rod 62 to extend. The electric push rod 62 drives the vertical plate 61, support wheel 65 and C-shaped clamp 60 to move synchronously, so that the C-shaped clamp 60 is disengaged from the lever 5, and the restriction on the lever 5 is released. Under the action of the gravity of the weld waste and the gravity of the box bottom plate 3 itself, the box bottom plate 3 rotates downward along the rotating shaft 4, so that the storage box is in an open state and the weld waste automatically falls into the storage yard.

[0030] The empty storage box is then hoisted back to the site of use. After manually rotating and closing the bottom plate 3 to a certain degree, such as 45°, the storage box is lowered again, so that the bottom plate 3 is automatically closed by the ground support. Finally, the electric push rod 62 is shortened, so that the C-shaped clamp 60 is re-attached to the lever plate 5, thereby limiting the bottom plate 3 again and keeping the bottom plate 3 in a stable closed state.

[0031] The unloading operation of this storage box is very convenient. Waste materials can be effectively unloaded without tilting the storage box. Moreover, during the unloading process, workers can stay away from the unloading site, which effectively solves the problem of safety hazards during the unloading process.

[0032] The above are all preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
