A track-mounted conveyor with a protective structure

Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of track-mounted conveyor technology, specifically a track-mounted conveyor with a protective structure, comprising: a hopper and a track. An extension plate storage slot is provided on the protective plate, into which an extension plate is movably inserted. A support rod mounting slot is also provided on the protective plate. The beneficial effects are: the extension plate extends out of the extension plate storage slot, increasing the single-load transport capacity of the hopper; after the hopper transports materials to its destination, workers use shovels to unload materials from the hopper that are higher than the top of the protective plate, causing the end of the support rod that was originally inserted into the extension plate storage slot to retract into the support rod mounting slot. Then, the handle is released downwards, causing the extension plate to retract completely into the extension plate storage slot, thus reducing the height of the protective plate. This achieves the goal of increasing the single-load capacity of the hopper while making it easier to unload materials located at lower levels in the hopper.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of track-type conveyor technology, specifically a track-type conveyor with a protective structure. Background Technology

[0002] Track-mounted conveyors are automated material handling equipment that use a pre-set track system to transport goods in a directional manner. They are widely used in industrial manufacturing, logistics warehousing, medical transportation, and mining operations.

[0003] In the prior art, rail-mounted conveyors typically consist of a rail, a hopper, and a drive unit. The hopper is composed of a bottom plate and a protective plate. The protective plate is fixed to the top of the hopper to prevent materials piled on the bottom plate from falling off. Meanwhile, rollers are rotatably connected to the bottom of the bottom plate. Roller grooves are provided on the rail, and the rollers are rotatably connected in the roller grooves. The drive unit typically consists of two sets of winches, fixed at both ends of the rail. The steel cables on the winches are fixed to both ends of the hopper. The hopper is pulled along the rail by the raising and lowering of the winches.

[0004] However, in the existing technology, the protective plates used as protective structures for track-type conveyors are often not height-adjustable. This results in limited protective capacity when the protective plate is too low, which restricts the single-transport capacity of the truck bed. When the protective plate is too high, it makes it inconvenient to unload materials at the bottom of the truck bed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a track-type conveyor with a protective structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a track-type conveyor with a protective structure, comprising: a hopper and a track, the hopper being composed of a bottom plate and a protective plate, the protective plate being fixed to the top of the bottom plate, a roller being rotatably connected to the bottom end of the bottom plate, a roller groove being provided on the track, the roller being rotatably connected in the roller groove, an extension plate storage groove being provided on the protective plate, an extension plate being movably inserted into the extension plate storage groove, a support rod mounting groove being provided on the protective plate, one end of a support rod being movably inserted into the support rod mounting groove, the other end of the support rod being movably inserted into the extension plate storage groove, a base being fixed to the bottom end of the extension plate, and the top end of the support rod extending into the extension plate storage groove abutting against the bottom end of the base.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom end of the base is provided with a slot, and the top end of the support rod is fixed with a block. The block has a rectangular block structure, the slot and the block cooperate, and the block is movably inserted into the slot.

[0008] Preferably, the protective plate has a card block storage slot, which cooperates with the card block.

[0009] Preferably, the extension plate receiving groove is a "hui"-shaped groove body, and the extension plate receiving groove is opened on the protective plate in a circle. Both the extension plate and the base are "hui"-shaped plate structures. The base cooperates with the extension plate receiving groove, and the inner and outer ring dimensions of the extension plate are both smaller than those of the base.

[0010] Preferably, a limiting plate is fixed on the inner wall at one end of the extension plate receiving groove. The limiting plate is a "hui"-shaped plate structure, and the inner ring of the limiting plate abuts against the outer ring of the extension plate.

[0011] Preferably, a scraping plate is fixed on the inner wall at the other end of the extension plate receiving groove. The scraping plate is a "hui"-shaped plate structure, and the outer ring of the scraping plate abuts against the inner ring of the extension plate.

[0012] Preferably, a top plate is fixed at the top end of the extension plate, and a handle is fixed at the top end of the top plate.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0014] For the rail-type conveyor with a protective structure proposed by the present utility model, when loading materials into the hopper, the extension plate extends out of the extension plate receiving groove, and one end of the supporting rod extends into the extension plate receiving groove to lift the base to a high position, so as to keep the extension plate in a state of extending out of the extension plate receiving groove, which plays a role in extending the height of the protective plate, thereby increasing the single transportation capacity of the hopper; when the hopper transports the materials to the destination, the worker uses a shovel to unload the materials in the hopper that are higher than the top end of the protective plate, and then holds the handle and lifts it upward. After the handle lifts the extension plate and the base upward by a certain distance through the top plate, the supporting rod is pulled outwards, so that the end of the supporting rod that originally extended into the extension plate receiving groove withdraws from the extension plate receiving groove and retracts into the supporting rod installation groove. Then, the handle is loosened downward to completely retract the extension plate into the extension plate receiving groove, so as to reduce the height of the protective plate and more conveniently unload the materials in the lower part of the hopper with a shovel. This achieves the purpose of more conveniently unloading the materials in the lower part of the hopper while increasing the single loading capacity of the hopper. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clear and complete, the embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only some, not all, embodiments of this utility model, and are merely used to explain the embodiments of this utility model. They are not intended to limit the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0020] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a track-type conveyor with a protective structure, comprising: a hopper 1 and a track 5. The hopper 1 is composed of a base plate 2 and a protective plate 3. The protective plate 3 is fixed to the top of the base plate 2. A roller 4 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the base plate 2. A roller groove 6 is provided on the track 5, and the roller 4 is rotatably connected in the roller groove 6. An extension plate storage groove 7 is provided on the protective plate 3, and an extension plate 8 is movably inserted into the extension plate storage groove 7. A support rod mounting groove 9 is provided on the protective plate 3, and one end of a support rod 10 is movably inserted into the support rod mounting groove 9. The other end of the support rod 10 is movably inserted into the extension plate storage groove 7. A base 11 is fixed to the bottom of the extension plate 8. The top end of the support rod 10 extending into the extension plate storage groove 7 abuts against the bottom end of the base 11. A top plate 17 is fixed to the top of the extension plate 8, and a handle 18 is fixed to the top of the top plate 17.

[0021] In actual use, winches are fixed at both ends of track 5, and the steel cables of the winches are fixed to the bucket 1. The rollers 4, which are rotatably connected to the bottom end of the base plate 2, are rolled in the roller grooves 6. The two sets of winches, one releasing and one retracting, drive the bucket 1 to move along track 5, thereby transporting the material in the bucket 1 from one end of track 5 to the other. When loading material into the bucket 1, the extension plate 8 extends out of the extension plate receiving groove 7, and one end of the support rod 10 extends into the extension plate receiving groove 7 to lift the base 11 to a high position, so that the extension plate 8 is kept in the state of extending out of the extension plate receiving groove 7, which serves to extend the height of the protective plate 3, thereby increasing the single transport capacity of the bucket 1. When the bucket 1 transports the material to the destination... Afterwards, the workers used shovels to unload the material in the truck bed 1 that was higher than the top of the protective plate 3. Then, they held the handle 18 and lifted it upwards. The handle 18 lifted the extension plate 8 and the base 11 upwards a certain distance through the top plate 17. Then, they pulled the support rod 10 outwards, so that the end of the support rod 10 that was originally inserted into the extension plate storage groove 7 exited from the extension plate storage groove 7 and retracted into the support rod mounting groove 9. Then, they released the handle 18 downwards, so that the extension plate 8 was completely retracted into the extension plate storage groove 7. This reduced the height of the protective plate 3, making it easier to unload the material in the lower part of the truck bed 1 with a shovel. This achieved the goal of increasing the single loading capacity of the truck bed 1 while making it easier to unload the material in the lower part of the truck bed 1.

[0022] Example 2: Based on Example 1, in order to prevent the support rod 10 from being shaken out of the extension plate storage slot 7 due to vibration during the movement of the truck bed 1, a slot 12 is provided at the bottom of the base 11, and a block 13 is fixed at the top of the support rod 10. The block 13 has a rectangular block structure, and the slot 12 cooperates with the block 13. The block 13 is movably inserted into the slot 12. A block storage slot 14 is provided on the protective plate 3, and the block storage slot 14 cooperates with the block 13.

[0023] When the support rod 10 is inserted into the extension plate storage slot 7, the locking block 13 at the top of the support rod 10 is inserted into the locking slot 12 at the bottom of the base 11, thereby limiting the support rod 10 and preventing it from exiting the extension plate storage slot 7 under vibration. At the same time, when the extension plate 8 needs to be lowered, the extension plate 8 and the base 11 are first lifted upwards to release the locking block 13 from the locking slot 12, thereby releasing the limiting function. The support rod 10 can then be pulled out of the extension plate storage slot 7, and the locking block 13 is stored in the locking block storage slot 14. After that, the extension plate 8 can be lowered.

[0024] Embodiment 3: On the basis of Embodiment 2, in order to prevent the extension plate 8 from being completely pulled out of the extension plate receiving groove 7, the extension plate receiving groove 7 is a "hui"-shaped groove body. The extension plate receiving groove 7 is provided on the protective plate 3 in a circle. Both the extension plate 8 and the base 11 are "hui"-shaped plate structures. The base 11 is matched with the extension plate receiving groove 7. The inner and outer ring dimensions of the extension plate 8 are both smaller than the inner and outer ring dimensions of the base 11. A limiting plate 16 is fixed on the inner wall of one end of the extension plate receiving groove 7. The limiting plate 16 is a "hui"-shaped plate structure. The inner ring of the limiting plate 16 abuts against the outer ring of the extension plate 8.

[0025] Both the inner and outer rings of the base 11 are closely attached to the inner wall of the extension plate receiving groove 7, and a limiting plate 16 is fixed at the top opening of the extension plate receiving groove 7. When the extension plate 8 moves upward to带动 the base 11 to move upward, the top of the base 11 abuts against the limiting plate 16, which can make the base 11 unable to move upward anymore and also make the extension plate 8 unable to move upward anymore, thus preventing the extension plate 8 from being completely pulled out of the extension plate receiving groove 7.

[0026] Embodiment 4: On the basis of Embodiment 3, in order to prevent materials from leaking into the extension plate receiving groove 7 during transportation, the extension plate receiving groove 7 is a "hui"-shaped groove body. The extension plate receiving groove 7 is provided on the protective plate 3 in a circle. Both the extension plate 8 and the base 11 are "hui"-shaped plate structures. The base 11 is matched with the extension plate receiving groove 7. The inner and outer ring dimensions of the extension plate 8 are both smaller than the inner and outer ring dimensions of the base 11. A scraping plate 15 is fixed on the inner wall of the other end of the extension plate receiving groove 7. The scraping plate 15 is a "hui"-shaped plate structure. The outer ring of the scraping plate 15 abuts against the inner ring of the extension plate 8.

[0027] A scraping plate 15 is fixed at the top of the inner wall of the extension plate receiving groove 7 near the inner part of the protective plate 3. The scraping plate 15 is made of rubber and has较大 elasticity. The scraping plate 15 is in a compressed state and tightly abuts against the inner wall of the extension plate 8, thereby preventing materials from leaking into the extension plate receiving groove 7 during transportation.

[0028] In actual use, winches are fixed at both ends of track 5, and the steel cables of the winches are fixed to the truck bed 1. The rollers 4, which are rotatably connected to the bottom end of the base plate 2, are rolled in the roller grooves 6. The two sets of winches, one releasing and one retracting, drive the truck bed 1 to move along track 5, thereby transporting the material in the truck bed 1 from one end of track 5 to the other. When loading material into the truck bed 1, the extension plate 8 extends out of the extension plate receiving groove 7, and one end of the support rod 10 extends into the extension plate receiving groove 7 to lift the base 11 to a high position, so that the extension plate 8 is kept in the state of extending out of the extension plate receiving groove 7, which serves to extend the height of the protective plate 3, thereby increasing the single transport capacity of the truck bed 1. When the truck bed 1. After transporting the materials to the destination, workers use shovels to unload the materials in the truck bed 1 that are higher than the top of the protective plate 3. Then, they hold the handle 18 and lift it upwards. The handle 18 lifts the extension plate 8 and the base 11 a certain distance through the top plate 17. Then, they pull the support rod 10 outwards, so that the end of the support rod 10 that was originally inserted into the extension plate storage groove 7 retracts from the extension plate storage groove 7 and into the support rod mounting groove 9. Then, they release the handle 18 downwards, so that the extension plate 8 is completely retracted into the extension plate storage groove 7. This lowers the height of the protective plate 3, making it easier to unload the materials at the lower part of the truck bed 1 with a shovel. This increases the single loading capacity of the truck bed 1 while making it more convenient to unload the materials. The purpose is to facilitate the unloading of materials located at the lower level in the truck bed 1; when the support rod 10 extends into the extension plate storage groove 7, the locking block 13 at the top of the support rod 10 is inserted into the locking groove 12 opened at the bottom of the base 11, thereby limiting the support rod 10 and preventing the support rod 10 from automatically exiting the extension plate storage groove 7 under vibration; at the same time, when it is necessary to lower the extension plate 8, first lift the extension plate 8 and the base 11 upwards to make the locking block 13 exit from the locking groove 12, thereby releasing the limitation, pulling the support rod 10 out of the extension plate storage groove 7, and storing the locking block 13 in the locking block storage groove 14, after which the extension plate 8 can be lowered; the inner and outer rings of the base 11 are tightly attached to On the inner wall of the extension plate storage groove 7, a limiting plate 16 is fixed at the top opening of the extension plate storage groove 7. When the extension plate 8 moves upward and drives the base 11 to move upward, the top of the base 11 abuts against the limiting plate 16, which prevents the base 11 from moving upward and also prevents the extension plate 8 from moving upward, thus preventing the extension plate 8 from being completely pulled out of the extension plate storage groove 7. A scraper 15 is fixed at the top of the inner wall of the extension plate storage groove 7 near the inside of the protective plate 3. The scraper 15 is made of rubber and has great elasticity. The scraper 15 is compressed and pressed tightly against the inner wall of the extension plate 8, thereby preventing materials from leaking into the extension plate storage groove 7 during transportation.
