The same number of vertical pin fixing seats 17 are provided at the corresponding positions on the side of the bottom frame. The vertical pins 4 are inserted into the vertical pin fixing seats 17; lifting lugs 16 are also fixedly provided at the four corner points of the upper part of the carriage 1; a connecting rod 15 is provided at the front of the carriage 1.

[0023] The first embodiment of this utility model is as follows:

[0024] A new type of slag unloading vehicle includes a car body 1. The car body 1 includes a bottom frame and side plates surrounding the upper part of the bottom frame. The bottom frame is composed of several cross beams and several longitudinal beams welded perpendicularly to each other, including the outermost side beam and the inner beams 8 located inside, which are used to connect the triangular plate 13, the support plate 10 and the hydraulic cylinder 7 respectively. Track wheel seats 5 are provided at the four corners of the lower part of the bottom frame. The track wheel seats 5 include slag-blocking covers. When moving, the slag-blocking covers push away the slag in front and behind the track wheels 6 to prevent the track wheels 6 from getting stuck or derailing and injuring people. The track wheels 6 are rotatably arranged inside the slag-blocking covers. A connecting rod 15 is provided at the front of the car body 1, which is connected to an excavator during operation so that the excavator can drive the car body to move and operate.

[0025] A material distribution plate 14 is also fixedly installed between the two slag-blocking covers on the same side. The material distribution plate 14 can be made by welding two narrow metal plates at a certain angle, or it can be made by bending a straight metal plate along its long axis. During installation, the bent part in the middle of the material distribution plate 14 is facing upwards. When unloading, the ballast will fall to the two inclined sides of the material distribution plate 14 and be diverted to both sides, instead of falling onto the rails, thus improving the stability of the track and ensuring the safety of train operation.

[0026] The upper part of the bottom frame has a downward-sloping ramp 18 on both sides. The middle of the ramp 18 protrudes upward. When the carriage 1 is full of ballast, the ballast will automatically gather to both sides to ensure that the ballast will not be stuck during unloading and to prevent material accumulation. All of the material will be discharged from the side unloading plate 3 and the bottom unloading plate 11. A triangular plate 13 is also provided in the space between the bottom frame and the ramp 18 to support and reinforce the ramp 18 and ensure its structural strength.

[0027] The bottom frame has open slots on both sides for unloading. These open slots are the gaps between several metal beams that make up the bottom frame, and they are connected to the foot of the ramp 18.

[0028] The bottom frame has six support plates 10 arranged in two groups, each corresponding to one of the two bottom unloading plates 11. A pad 9, slightly thicker than the bottom unloading plate 11, is placed between the support plates 10 and the bottom frame. The support plates 10, pad 9, and bottom frame are then connected as a single unit by bolts. The bottom unloading plates 11 are slidably installed between the bottom frame and the support plates 10. Four hydraulic cylinders 7 are also hinged to the lower part of the bottom frame, arranged in two groups, each corresponding to one of the two bottom unloading plates 11. The piston rod end of the material plate 11 and the hydraulic cylinder 7 is hinged to the bottom unloading plate 11 through the hydraulic cylinder seat 12. The hydraulic cylinder 7 drives the bottom unloading plate 11 to slide on the support plate 10 so that the hollow groove can switch between the open and closed states. When the hydraulic cylinder 7 is in the initial state, the bottom unloading plate 11 completely blocks the hollow groove. At this time, the ballast cannot be discharged from the hollow groove. When the hydraulic cylinder 7 is shortened, the hydraulic cylinder 7 drives the bottom unloading plate 11 to slide inward. At this time, the hollow groove cannot be blocked by the bottom unloading plate 11, and the ballast will be discharged from the hollow groove.

[0029] A synchronization valve is also installed in the middle of the bottom frame. The synchronization valve is connected to four oil cylinders 7 and is used to control the hydraulic system of the entire equipment so that the four oil cylinders 7 work synchronously.

[0030] Material discharge troughs are provided on the lower part of the side panels on both sides of the carriage 1. Hinges 2 are provided on the side panels near the material discharge troughs and are connected to the side unloading plates 3 by means of hinges 2. The side unloading plates 3 can be flipped up with the hinges 2 as the axis to expose the material discharge troughs. The side unloading plates 3 and the material discharge troughs are the same shape and the material discharge troughs can be switched between open and closed states by flipping up. When the side unloading plates 3 are flipped up, the ballast will be discharged from the material discharge troughs.

[0031] Vertical pins 4 are connected to the outer surface of the side unloading plate 3 by ropes. The same number of vertical pin fixing seats 17 are set at the corresponding positions on the side of the bottom frame. The vertical pins 4 are inserted into the vertical pin fixing seats 17. When the vertical pins 4 are inserted into the vertical pin fixing slots, they can block the side unloading plate 3 from flipping up. In order to ensure that the vertical pins 4 will not fall off and be lost, they are connected to the side unloading plate 3 by ropes.

[0032] The ballast discharged from the side unloading plate 3 leaks into the sleeper position, and the ballast discharged from the bottom unloading plate 11 leaks into the inside and outside of the rail.

[0033] Lifting lugs 16 are also fixedly installed at the four corners of the upper part of the carriage 1, which can be flexibly placed using lifting tools and hoisting equipment.

[0034] The side plates are also connected by reinforcing ribs 19 to improve the structural strength between the side plates and prevent the side plates from deforming or even cracking due to too much ballast.

[0035] It should be noted that the terms "first, second, and third" used in this utility model are for descriptive purposes only and do not indicate any order. They should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, and can be interpreted as names.

[0036] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The advantages of the present invention have been fully and effectively realized. The functional and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments.
