Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of iron scrap hopper technology, specifically an automatic loading and unloading iron scrap hopper. Background Technology
[0002] A chip hopper is a device used to collect and store iron chips generated during metal cutting processes. It is commonly used in machining, metal casting, and other manufacturing processes.
[0003] Existing scrap hoppers are generally equipped with a tilting mechanism, which can be driven by a motor and a reducer. When unloading is required, the drive device is activated, causing the scrap hopper to tilt around a fixed axis, and the scrap will automatically pour out under the action of gravity.
[0004] However, existing scrap hoppers consist of multiple components such as a motor, reducer, shaft, and bearings, making their structure relatively complex, inconvenient to maintain, and limiting their use. To address these issues, an automatic loading and unloading scrap hopper is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate increase the stability of the iron chip hopper.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: the outer ring of the first screw is provided with a second connecting plate, and the outer ring of the second screw is provided with a second connecting plate.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the second screw is connected to the second connecting plate.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: a first reinforcing base plate is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom of both the first and second iron chip hoppers.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the first reinforcing base plate strengthens the bottom of the first and second scrap hoppers.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the second and third reinforcing bottom plates reinforce the bottom of the first scrap hopper.
[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution: a second connecting plate is provided on one side of the first nut and the second nut.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the tightness can be adjusted by rotating the first nut and the second nut respectively.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0021] This utility model provides an automatic loading and unloading iron scrap hopper, which consists of a first hook, a second hook, a lifting plate, a first iron scrap hopper, and a second iron scrap hopper. Ropes are connected between the two first hooks and between the two second hooks. When unloading is required, the rope between the two first hooks can be lifted, causing the first and second iron scrap hoppers to rotate, thereby opening the gap between the first and second iron scrap hoppers for unloading. During normal use, the rope between the two second hooks is lifted to load iron scrap. The structure is simple, the operation is convenient, and the maintenance is easy. Attached Figure Description

[0028] Combination Figures 1-3This utility model discloses an automatic loading and unloading scrap hopper, comprising a first scrap hopper 1, a second scrap hopper 2 disposed on the left side of the first scrap hopper 1, and a second scrap hopper 2 that can be loaded when the second scrap hopper 2 and the first scrap hopper 1 are combined. A first reinforcing side plate 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the first scrap hopper 1, and a second reinforcing side plate 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the second scrap hopper 2. The second reinforcing side plate 12 extends the side of the first reinforcing side plate 11. First connecting plates 9 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the outer walls of the first scrap hopper 1 and the second scrap hopper 2. A second connecting plate 10 is fixedly connected to one side of each of the two adjacent first connecting plates 9. The second connecting plates 10 are reinforced with the protective plate 3 to increase rigidity. The first connecting plates 9 and the first screw 7 are... The ring is provided with a second connecting plate 10, and the outer ring of the second screw 16 is provided with a second connecting plate 10. The first iron chip hopper 1 and the second iron chip hopper 2 are both fixedly connected to the center of the bottom of the first iron chip hopper 1 and the second iron chip hopper 2. The first reinforcing base plate 13, the second reinforcing base plate 14, and the third reinforcing base plate 15 reinforce the bottom of the iron chip hopper and increase its rigidity. The second reinforcing base plate 14 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the bottom of the second iron chip hopper 2. The third reinforcing base plate 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the second iron chip hopper 2. The first iron chip hopper 1 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the bottom of the first iron chip hopper 1. The third reinforcing base plate 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the first iron chip hopper 1. The second connecting plate 10 is provided on one side of the first nut 8 and the second nut 17.
[0029] Combination Figure 1 The first reinforcing side plate 11 has a first screw 7 that passes through and rotatably connects to both the front and rear sides of its inner wall. The second reinforcing side plate 12 has a second screw 16 that passes through and rotatably connects to both the front and rear ends of its inner wall. The second screw 16 and the first screw 7 are used to connect the lifting plate 5 to the first reinforcing side plate 11 and the second reinforcing side plate 12. The outer ring of the second screw 16 and the first screw 7 on one side both pass through and are threaded to the lifting plate 5. A second hook 6 is fixedly connected to one side of each of the two lifting plates 5. A rope is connected between the two second hooks 6. When in normal use, this rope can be lifted for loading. Protective plates 3 are fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of plate 11 and the second reinforcing side plate 12. First hooks 4 are fixedly connected to one side of each of the two protective plates 3. A rope is connected between the two first hooks 4. When unloading is required, the rope can be lifted, and the first scrap hopper 1 and the second scrap hopper 2 can be pulled to rotate and unload the material. The outer rings of the two second screws 16 are threaded with second nuts 17, and the outer rings of the two first screws 7 are threaded with first nuts 8. By rotating the first nuts 8 and the second nuts 17, the tightness of the limit on the first scrap hopper 1 and the second scrap hopper 2 can be adjusted.
[0030] Working Principle: When using the scrap hopper, ropes are connected between the two first hooks 4 and the two second hooks 6. During normal use, the tightness of the first scrap hopper 1 and the second scrap hopper 2 can be adjusted by rotating the second nut 17 and the first nut 8 as needed. Then, the ropes between the two second hooks 6 are lifted for loading. When unloading is required, the ropes between the two first hooks 4 are lifted, which pulls the first scrap hopper 1 and the second scrap hopper 2 to rotate on one side of the lifting plate 5, thus opening and unloading. The structure is simple and easy to operate. The 13, third reinforcing base plate 15, and second reinforcing base plate 14 located below the first scrap hopper 1 and the second scrap hopper 2 increase the strength of the bottom of the scrap hopper. The second connecting plate 10, the second scrap hopper 2, the first connecting plate 9, and the second connecting plate 10 located on the outer wall of the first scrap hopper 1 and the second scrap hopper 2 increase the strength of the sides of the scrap hopper.
