[0027] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0028] Example:

[0029] like Figures 1-2 As shown, this utility model provides a storage device for heat-treated wear-resistant cast balls.

[0030] include:

[0031] Lifting mechanism 1, whose input end is connected to the discharge end of the heat treatment tempering line, is used to vertically lift the heat-treated steel balls to a predetermined height;

[0032] The inclined chute mechanism 2 is located below the output end of the lifting mechanism 1 and is equipped with a ramp structure to guide the rolling of steel balls;

[0033] The ball storage bin 3 is connected to the end of the inclined chute mechanism 2 through the ball inlet 7, and the bottom of the ball storage bin 3 is provided with a tiltable unloading mechanism.

[0034] The lifting mechanism 1 vertically transports the steel balls to the inclined chute mechanism 2, where they roll along the slope and enter the ball storage bin 3. Once the ball storage bin 3 is full, the balls are unloaded by the flip-over unloading mechanism.

[0035] The heat-treated steel balls are vertically lifted to a predetermined height by the lifting mechanism 1, and then guided to roll into the ball storage bin 3 by the inclined chute mechanism 2. Finally, the unloading is completed by the flip-over unloading mechanism. This realizes the automated storage process of steel balls from the discharge end of the heat treatment tempering line to the ball storage bin 3, reducing manual intervention, improving production efficiency, and reducing labor intensity and production costs.

[0036] Optionally, the lifting mechanism 1 includes:

[0037] Feed chute 4 receives the steel balls output from the tempering line;

[0038] The lifting hopper 6 is vertically lifted and lowered via a hydraulic drive device 5.

[0039] The hydraulic drive device 5 drives the lifting hopper 6 to periodically lift and lower, transferring the steel balls from the feed chute 4 to the inclined chute mechanism 2.

[0040] The lifting mechanism 1 includes a feeding chute 4 and a lifting bucket 6 that achieves vertical lifting and lowering through a hydraulic drive device 5. The hydraulic drive device 5 drives the lifting bucket 6 to perform periodic lifting and lowering, transferring the steel balls from the feeding chute 4 to the inclined chute mechanism 2, making the vertical lifting process of the steel balls more stable and reliable. The hydraulic drive device 5 can provide greater power to ensure that the lifting bucket 6 can successfully complete the transfer task of the steel balls.

[0041] Optionally, the lifting hopper 6 is equipped with an automatic tilting structure, which automatically tilts the steel balls into the tilting chute mechanism 2 when the hopper is lifted to the highest position.

[0042] The lifting hopper 6 is equipped with an automatic tilting structure. When it is lifted to the highest position, it automatically tilts the steel balls into the tilting chute mechanism 2, which further improves the automation level of the device, avoids the tedious process of manually operating the lifting hopper 6 to tilt the steel balls, reduces human error, and improves production efficiency.

[0043] Optionally, the inclined chute mechanism 2 has a wear-resistant liner on its slope surface, with an inclination angle of 15°-35°.

[0044] The inclined chute mechanism 2 is equipped with wear-resistant liners on its slope surface, with an inclination angle of 15° - 35°. The wear-resistant liners can increase the service life of the inclined chute mechanism 2 and reduce the wear of the steel balls on the slope surface. The appropriate inclination angle can ensure that the steel balls roll smoothly into the ball storage bin 3, and also avoid collision damage caused by the steel balls rolling too fast.

[0045] Optionally, the reversible unloading mechanism includes:

[0046] The ball storage chute 9 is hinged to the bottom of the ball storage bin 3;

[0047] The hydraulic tilting cylinder 8 has its piston rod connected to the ball hopper chute 9 via a transmission connection.

[0048] When the ball storage bin 3 is fully loaded, the hydraulic tilting cylinder 8 drives the ball bin chute 9 to rotate around the hinge point to form a discharge channel.

[0049] The tiltable unloading mechanism includes a ball chute 9 hinged to the bottom of the ball storage bin 3 and a hydraulic tilting cylinder 8 that is connected to the ball chute 9 in a transmission manner. When the ball storage bin 3 is full, the hydraulic tilting cylinder 8 drives the ball chute 9 to rotate around the hinge point to form an unloading channel. The unloading method is simple and convenient to operate, and can quickly and effectively unload the steel balls in the ball storage bin 3, thereby improving the unloading efficiency.

[0050] Optionally, a material level detection device is provided on the side wall of the ball storage silo 3, and the material level detection device is connected to the control system of the lifting mechanism 1.

[0051] In this application, the control system adopts a PLC system, and the material level detection device adopts a weighted level gauge, specifically the Kaihang H-Li-MKP-AIL30 silo material level detection weighted level gauge.

[0052] A weight is suspended by a steel cable or wire rope driven by a motor and allowed to fall freely within the hopper. When the weight touches the material surface, the motor stops, and the height of the fall is recorded to determine the material level. After measurement, the weight automatically returns to its original position, awaiting the next measurement. The advantages are accurate measurement, directly measuring the actual material level with high precision; it is unaffected by factors such as material density, humidity, and particle size, and the measurement results are reliable for materials with relatively stable physical properties, such as wear-resistant cast balls.

[0053] The side wall of the ball storage bin 3 is equipped with a material level detection device, which is connected to the control system of the lifting mechanism 1. The material level detection device can monitor the steel ball level in the ball storage bin 3 in real time. When the ball storage bin 3 is full, it transmits the signal to the control system of the lifting mechanism 1, so that the lifting mechanism 1 stops working and prevents the steel balls from overflowing from the ball storage bin 3, thereby improving the automation and intelligence level of the device.

[0054] This application utilizes a lifting mechanism 1 to vertically lift the heat-treated steel balls from the outlet of the tempering line to a certain height. Then, the inclined chute mechanism 2 guides the steel balls to roll into the ball storage bin 3. When the ball storage bin 3 is full, the steel balls are unloaded by a flip-over unloading mechanism. At the same time, a material level detection device monitors the material level of the ball storage bin 3 in real time to achieve automatic control of the lifting mechanism 1.

[0055] In the process of using this application, the heat-treated steel balls first enter the feed chute 4 of the lifting mechanism 1 from the outlet of the tempering line. The hydraulic drive device 5 drives the lifting bucket 6 to perform periodic lifting and lowering movements, transferring the steel balls from the feed chute 4 to the lifting bucket 6. When the lifting bucket 6 is lifted to the highest position, the automatic tilting structure tilts the steel balls into the inclined chute mechanism 2. The steel balls roll along the inclined surface of the inclined chute mechanism 2 and enter the ball storage bin 3. The wear-resistant liner on the inclined surface can reduce wear, and the appropriate tilt angle ensures that the steel balls roll smoothly. The material level detection device on the side wall of the ball storage bin 3 monitors the material level of the steel balls in real time. When the ball storage bin 3 is full, the material level detection device transmits the signal to the control system of the lifting mechanism 1. When the ball storage bin 3 is fully loaded, the hydraulic tilting cylinder 8 drives the ball storage chute 9 to rotate around the hinge point to form a discharge channel, unloading the steel balls in the ball storage bin 3. After unloading, the device can re-enter the cycle of feeding, lifting, and storage, realizing the continuous storage and unloading of steel balls.

[0056] This application effectively solves the problem of manually changing the storage bins after steel balls are poured into the designated bins using overhead cranes. It eliminates the need for manual labor in the process of transferring the steel balls to transport vehicles via overhead cranes or loaders, reducing manual labor intensity, improving labor efficiency, and lowering production costs. The storage device has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and performs well.

[0057] This application realizes an automated process from the discharge end of the heat treatment tempering line to the storage bin 3. The lifting mechanism 1 automatically lifts the steel balls vertically, and the tilting chute mechanism 2 guides the steel balls to roll into the bin. After the storage bin 3 is full, it is automatically unloaded by the flip-over unloading mechanism. This reduces manual operation and avoids tedious and time-consuming procedures such as manually changing the material bucket and hoisting and transferring the materials. It greatly shortens the storage and unloading time of steel balls and significantly improves production efficiency.

[0058] The material level detection device is connected to the control system signal of the lifting mechanism 1. When the ball storage bin 3 is not full, the lifting mechanism 1 continues to work, continuously transporting steel balls to the ball storage bin 3, realizing continuous storage operations, reducing production interruptions caused by manual intervention or equipment adjustment, ensuring the continuity and stability of production, and further improving production efficiency.

[0059] Traditional heat treatment and storage methods for wear-resistant cast balls require manual labor to continuously change the material buckets using a crane to store the steel balls in the ball pool. Then, the balls need to be transferred to transport vehicles using a crane or loader, which is labor-intensive. In contrast, the device proposed in this application automates most of the process. Operators only need to perform simple equipment monitoring and necessary maintenance, eliminating the need for heavy physical labor and effectively reducing labor intensity.

[0060] The operation of the device is relatively simple. The operation of each component, such as the lifting mechanism 1, the tilting chute mechanism 2, and the tilting unloading mechanism, is automatically controlled by the control system. Operators only need to master the basic operating procedures and equipment monitoring methods, which reduces the skill requirements for operators and also reduces the increase in labor intensity caused by improper operation.

[0061] In traditional storage methods, steel balls are prone to collision and wear during manual hoisting and transfer, affecting product quality. However, in the device of this application, steel balls are vertically lifted by the lifting mechanism 1 and rolled into the storage bin by the inclined chute mechanism 2, which reduces the violent collision and friction between steel balls. The appropriate inclination angle of the inclined chute mechanism 2 can ensure that the steel balls roll smoothly into the storage bin 3, and avoid collision damage caused by excessive rolling speed, thereby improving the product quality of steel balls.

[0062] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
