Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of train carriage cleaning equipment, and in particular to an automatic slag removal device for train carriages. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, coal transportation mainly relies on trains. During unloading, tippers are typically used to unload the coal from the train cars. However, during long-distance train transport, coal inevitably adheres and freezes, leaving behind coal residue in the cars after unloading. This residue can range from tens of kilograms to several tons, severely impacting transportation efficiency and significantly increasing transportation and coal usage costs. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the residual coal from the train cars.

[0003] Current research on debris removal devices for tipper cars mainly focuses on cleaning equipment such as high-pressure water jetting and negative pressure cleaning. However, using water to clean the car body wastes water resources and can also lead to coal loss, resulting in coal waste. Utility Model Content

[0004] To facilitate the removal of residual coal in train carriages, this application provides an automatic slag removal device for train carriages.

[0005] This application provides an automatic slag removal device for train carriages, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An automatic slag removal device for train carriages includes a cleaning mechanism for installation on a tipper. The cleaning mechanism includes a primary adjustment component, a robotic arm, a mounting frame, and a slag removal module. The mounting frame is used for installation on the tipper. The primary adjustment component is installed on the mounting frame. The robotic arm is rotatably connected to the mounting frame and is used to drive the robotic arm to rotate. The slag removal module is installed at the output end of the robotic arm and includes a shovel. The robotic arm is used to adjust the position of the shovel. The primary adjustment component cooperates with the robotic arm to move the shovel into the carriage and remove residual coal from the carriage.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when in use, the first-level adjustment component is used to move the robotic arm to a suitable position. Then, the robotic arm is used to move the slag removal module, so that the shovel extends into the car body. The robotic arm is used to move the shovel to remove the remaining coal in the car body. The first-level adjustment component is used in conjunction with the robotic arm to move the shovel, which facilitates the removal of the remaining coal in the car body. It is simple and convenient and will not cause the remaining coal to be lost.

[0008] Optionally, the primary adjustment component includes a hydraulic cylinder.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinder drives the mechanical arm to rotate, resulting in a simple structure and convenient operation.

[0010] Optionally, the slag removal module may also include a pneumatic nozzle.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, after the shovel removes large pieces of coal, a pneumatic nozzle is used to clean up some residual coal ash, preventing coal ash from forming scale and accumulating.

[0012] Optionally, the slag removal module may also include a line sweeper.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easier to locate the remaining coal, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the shovel position using hydraulic cylinders and robotic arms for rapid cleaning of the remaining coal.

[0014] Optionally, a buffer is installed between the output end of the robotic arm and the slag removal module.

[0015] The above technical solution is used to buffer the reverse impact force generated when the shovel is shoveling coal.

[0016] Optionally, the tipper is slidably connected to a slider along the length of the train car, the mounting bracket is mounted on the slider, and the tipper is provided with a drive assembly for driving the slider to slide.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy to adjust the position of the cleaning mechanism, thereby facilitating the comprehensive cleaning of the remaining coal in the car.

[0018] Optionally, the drive assembly includes a motor and a lead screw, the lead screw being rotatably connected to the tipper, the lead screw rotating to drive the slider to slide, and the motor being used to drive the lead screw to rotate.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the slider is driven to move, the motor is turned on, which drives the lead screw to rotate, thereby causing the slider to slide. The lead screw in this drive assembly has a certain limiting capability, which makes it easy to position the slider at a certain position.

[0020] Optionally, a plug rod is fixedly connected to the slider, a through hole is provided on the mounting bracket for the plug rod to pass through, a clearance groove is provided on the plug rod, a limit block is slidably connected in the clearance groove, a spring is fixedly connected in the clearance groove for driving the limit block to be partially located outside the clearance groove, and the mounting bracket is limited between the limit block and the slider.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient to connect and separate the mounting bracket and the slider. When the mounting bracket needs to be installed, press the limiting block so that the limiting block is fully inserted into the relief groove, then insert the rod out of the through hole, release the limiting block, and the limiting block partially extends out of the relief groove under the action of the spring, thereby limiting the mounting bracket between the slider and the limiting block.

[0022] Optionally, when the spring is not deformed, the portion of the limiting block away from the slider located outside the relief groove is an arc-shaped convex surface.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the arc-shaped convex surface design of the limiting block facilitates the decomposition of the force from the mounting bracket on the limiting block into a force that retracts the limiting block into the relief groove when the insertion rod passes through the through hole. This eliminates the need to press the limiting block, reduces operating steps, and makes it more convenient for operators.

[0024] In summary, this application has the following beneficial technical effects: This application utilizes a primary adjustment component in conjunction with a robotic arm to drive the shovel, thereby facilitating the removal of residual coal in the car body. This is simple, convenient, and does not cause any loss of residual coal. This application also facilitates the comprehensive cleaning of residual coal in the car body by installing the mounting bracket on the slider, which can move along the length of the tipper.

[0031] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0032] This application discloses an automatic slag removal device for train carriages.

[0033] Example 1;

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 An automatic slag removal device for train carriages includes a cleaning mechanism 19 for installation on a tipper 17. The cleaning mechanism 19 includes a primary adjustment component, a robotic arm 1, a mounting frame 2, and a slag removal module. The mounting frame 2 is fixed to the crossbeam 18 of the tipper 17. The primary adjustment component is installed on the mounting frame 2. The robotic arm 1 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 2. The primary adjustment component is used to drive the robotic arm 1 to rotate. The slag removal module is installed at the output end of the robotic arm 1. The primary adjustment component works in conjunction with the robotic arm 1 to move the slag removal module into the carriage to remove residual coal in the carriage.

[0035] In this embodiment, the mounting frame 2 is fixed to the crossbeam 18 of the tipper 17 by screws. The primary adjustment component is a hydraulic cylinder 3. The fixed end of the hydraulic cylinder 3 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 2, and the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 3 is rotatably connected to the robotic arm 1.

[0036] The extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinder 3 can drive the overall rotation of the robotic arm 1, thereby adjusting the position of the slag removal module.

[0037] In another embodiment, the primary adjustment component can also be a cylinder 7.

[0038] In this embodiment, robotic arm 1 is a six-degree-of-freedom robot.

[0039] In this embodiment, the slag removal module includes a shovel 5 and a buffer 4, with the buffer 4 fixedly connected to the shovel 5 and the output end of the robotic arm 1.

[0040] The slag removal module also includes a pneumatic nozzle 6. A cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the buffer 4 near the blade 5. The pneumatic nozzle 6 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 7, and the position of the pneumatic nozzle 6 is adjusted by the cylinder 7.

[0041] The slag removal module also includes a line sweeper 8, which is fixedly connected to one end of the buffer 4 near the shovel 5. The line sweeper 8 facilitates the location of residual coal, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the shovel 5 position using the hydraulic cylinder 3 and the robotic arm 1 for rapid cleaning of the residual coal.

[0042] The implementation principle of the automatic slag removal device for train carriage disclosed in this application is as follows: When in use, the hydraulic cylinder 3 is used to adjust the mechanical arm 1 to a suitable position, and then the line scanner 8 is used to scan the position of the remaining coal. Then, the mechanical arm 1 drives the shovel 5 to move to clean the remaining coal. After the large pieces of remaining coal are removed, the pneumatic nozzle is turned on to clean the coal ash.

[0043] Example 2;

[0044] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the cleaning mechanism 19 can move along the length of the tipper 17, thereby facilitating the all-round cleaning of the remaining coal in the car.

[0045] In order to enable the movement of the cleaning mechanism 19, a slide groove 9 is provided on the crossbeam 18 of the tipper 17. The length direction of the slide groove 9 is set along the length direction of the crossbeam 18 of the tipper 17. A slider 10 is slidably connected in the slide groove 9. The mounting bracket 2 is used to fix it on the slider 10. The tipper 17 is provided with a drive assembly for driving the slider 10 to slide.

[0046] The drive assembly includes a motor 15 and a lead screw 16. The lead screw 16 is rotatably connected in the slide groove 9. The rotation axis and length direction of the lead screw 16 are both set along the length direction of the slide groove 9. The motor 15 is fixed on the tipper 17 and is used to drive the lead screw 16 to rotate. The lead screw 16 passes through the slider 10 and is threadedly connected to the slider 10.

[0047] In another embodiment, the driving component can also be a gear and rack combination, that is, a rack is fixed on the crossbeam 18 of the tipper 17, and a gear is rotatably connected on the mounting frame 2 so that the gear and rack mesh, and the motor 15 drives the gear to rotate, which in turn drives the mounting frame 2 to move.

[0048] In this embodiment, to facilitate the separation and connection of the mounting bracket 2 and the slider 10, a plug rod 11 is fixedly connected to the slider 10. The mounting bracket 2 has a through hole 12 for the plug rod 11 to pass through. The plug rod 11 has a clearance groove 20. A limit block 13 is slidably connected in the clearance groove 20. A spring 14 is fixedly connected in the clearance groove 20 to drive the limit block 13 to be partially located outside the clearance groove 20. The mounting bracket 2 is limited between the limit block 13 and the slider 10. When the spring 14 is not deformed, the part of the limit block 13 away from the slider 10 that is located outside the clearance groove 20 is an arc-shaped convex surface.

[0049] The implementation principle of the automatic slag removal device for train carriage disclosed in this application is as follows: When installing the mounting frame 2, the insertion rod 11 is passed through the through hole 12, and the mounting frame 2 is limited between the limiting block 13 and the slider 10. Then, the position of the slider 10 is adjusted by the motor 15 and the lead screw 16, so that the residual coal in the carriage can be cleaned in all directions.
