[0002] Baijiu brewing is gradually shifting from traditional manual labor to automated equipment. Automated equipment can greatly reduce labor intensity, increase output and production efficiency, and continuously improve quality and stability. In the automated brewing process, for automated production lines, depending on factors such as production line layout and space utilization, the materials need to be poured from a height during the transfer and brewing process to supply the next stage of equipment. Therefore, a material lifting device is required. As shown in patent CN208949242U, which discloses an automated baijiu brewing production line, the connection between the transfer bucket and the elevator is simple and lacks stability; the number of guide rails is small, resulting in low safety; the turning speed and forward travel are small, and there are many areas that need improvement and optimization. The transfer bucket and the elevator must be connected by rails. Utility Model Content

[0039] Such as Figures 1-8 , a bucket elevator and tilter includes a frame 1, a lifting and tilting frame 2, a hopper 3 and a mobile trolley 4. A lifting mechanism and a guiding track are provided on the frame 1; the lifting and tilting frame 2 is connected to the lifting mechanism, and three pairs of guiding rollers moving along the guiding track are provided on the left and right sides of the lifting and tilting frame 2 respectively. The lifting and tilting frame 2 has a feeding notch 201; the hopper 3 is placed on the lifting and tilting frame 2 and is lifted and tilted along with the lifting and tilting frame 2; the mobile trolley 4 moves to the feeding notch 201 of the lifting and tilting frame 2 to convey the hopper 3 above the lifting and tilting frame 2 or output the hopper 3 above the lifting and tilting frame 2. As an embodiment, the lifting and tilting frame 2 is in a "C" shape, and the mobile trolley 4 enters the feeding notch 201 in the middle of the lifting and tilting frame 2.
[0040] The guiding track includes a vertical guiding rail 11, a first curved guiding rail 12 and a second curved guiding rail 13. The vertical guiding rail 11, the first curved guiding rail 12 and the second curved guiding rail 13 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the frame 1. The lifting and tilting frame 2 is provided with a first guiding roller 21 cooperating with the vertical guiding rail 11, a second guiding roller 22 cooperating with the first curved guiding rail 12 and a third guiding roller 23 cooperating with the second curved guiding rail 13. The vertical guiding rail 11 includes two vertical rails, the first guiding roller 21 is located between the two vertical rails, the second curved guiding rail 13 includes two curved rails, and the third guiding roller 23 is located between the two curved rails. Left and right limiting wheels 29 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the lifting and tilting frame 2, and the left and right limiting wheels 29 contact the inner side surfaces of the vertical guiding rail 11 to achieve left and right direction limiting and ensure smooth movement and safety.
[0041] To prevent interference, the first curved guide rail 12 is provided with a notch for avoiding the mounting shaft of the first guide roller 21. The notch is small in width, just enough to allow the mounting shaft of the first guide roller 21 to pass through without affecting the rolling of the second guide roller 2 on it.
[0042] The lifting mechanism includes a chain elevator, with a first guide roller 21 rotatably connected to a mounting block, and the mounting block is fixedly connected to the chain 5 of the chain elevator.
[0043] A sensor 6 is installed on the frame 1 to detect when the first guide roller 21 moves to the uppermost position.
[0044] The lifting and tilting frame 2 is equipped with a limiting pin 24 to prevent the hopper 3 from tipping over and falling. A mounting frame 25 is fixed to the tilting frame, and the limiting pin 24 passes through a through hole in the mounting frame 25. A limiting post is fixed to the limiting pin 24 and is perpendicular to it. A spring 26 is provided between the mounting frame 25 and the limiting post. The limiting pin 24 is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the moving trolley 4. The lifting and tilting frame 2 is also equipped with a stop frame 27 to stop the hopper 3 and a stop post 28 to prevent the hopper 3 from tipping over and falling. The stop post 28 is parallel to the direction of movement of the moving trolley 4. The hopper 3 has a frame and a hopper body. During the forward transport of the hopper 3 by the moving trolley 4, the limiting pin 24 is compressed back by a vertical frame of the frame. When it reaches its final position, the limiting pin resets and is located above the horizontal frame and inside the vertical frame. Additionally, the stop post 28 also blocks the horizontal frame, thus providing a limiting function.
[0045] The mobile trolley 4 is equipped with a stop 41 to prevent the hopper 3 from slipping. The mobile trolley 4 has wheels 42 at its bottom, and the two front wheels 42 are connected to a connecting shaft via a key. The connecting shaft is connected to a motor. The mobile trolley 4 can move on a plane along a specific track, or it can move by laying guide rails.
[0046] The lower end of the frame 1 is provided with several support columns 14 for stopping and supporting the lifting and tilting frame 2.
[0047] Protective nets 15 are provided on both sides of the frame 1 and on the upper side of the side closest to the mobile trolley 4.
[0048] Working principle: such as Figure 1 The mobile trolley 4 drives the hopper 3 to move and dock with the lifting and tilting frame 2. After docking, the hopper 3 is located above the lifting and tilting frame 2. The lifting and tilting frame 2 is lifted and tilted, which drives the hopper 3 to rise and tilt, pouring out the material in the hopper 3. Then, after descending, the hopper 3 falls directly back to the mobile trolley 4, and the mobile trolley 4 takes away the empty hopper 3.
[0049] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
