Example

[0021] like Figure 1-4 As shown;

[0022] A recycling cart in a cigarette factory's tobacco processing workshop.

[0023] This implementation plan addresses the technical problems existing in the prior art, such as those disclosed in the background section above: "During the production process in the cigarette manufacturing workshop, waste materials such as tobacco dust and broken tobacco leaves are generated. These waste materials need to be recycled and processed in a timely manner to ensure the cleanliness of the production environment and the smoothness of the production process. Currently, the commonly used waste recycling methods in the workshop are manual collection or simple cart collection, which have many shortcomings. For example, manual collection is inefficient and labor-intensive; existing recycling carts are usually simple in structure, requiring manual operation when dumping waste, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also easily causes waste to spill, polluting the environment, and also poses certain safety hazards. In addition, existing recycling devices lack flexibility in height adjustment and dumping angle control, making it difficult to adapt to the waste discharge requirements of different production equipment, resulting in incomplete waste recycling and affecting production efficiency and material utilization." In practical terms, this problem is obviously a real and difficult-to-solve issue. Therefore, to solve this technical problem, a recycling cart for the cigarette manufacturing workshop is provided.

[0024] Structural composition:

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the waste recycling trolley in the cigarette manufacturing workshop of this utility model mainly consists of a mobile trolley 1, a guide rail 2, a guide sleeve 3, a mounting base 4, a cylinder 5, a tilting mechanism 6, and a collection hopper 7. The mobile trolley 1 has multiple wheels at its bottom, at least two of which are universal wheels with brakes, facilitating the trolley's movement and positioning within the workshop. The guide rail 2, fixed to the mobile trolley 1, is a rectangular strip structure with limiting blocks at both ends. The guide sleeve 3 is slidably connected to the outer perimeter of the guide rail 2, and the mounting base 4 is fixed to the guide sleeve 3. The cylinder 5 is fixed to the bottom of the guide rail 2 via a cylinder mounting base, and its piston rod tip is fixedly connected to the guide sleeve 3, with a buffer pad at the connection point.

[0026] Working principle of the tilting mechanism:

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, the tilting mechanism 6 includes a fixed base 61, a shaft seat 62, a rotating base 63, a geared motor 64, a lead screw 65, a threaded sleeve 66, a movable base 67, and a push rod 68. The fixed base 61 is fixed to the mounting base 4. One end is movably connected to the rotating base 63 via a pair of shaft seats 62, and the other end is fixed to the geared motor 64. The geared motor 64 is connected to the fixed base 61 via a motor mounting bracket, and its output shaft is connected to one end of the lead screw 65 via a coupling. The lead screw 65 is positioned between the two ends of the fixed base 61. The threaded sleeve 66 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 65. The movable base 67 is fixed to the bottom of the rotating base 63. The two side walls of the threaded sleeve 66 are movably connected to the movable base 67 via the push rod 68. The two ends of the push rod 68 are connected by pins. The rotating base 63 is fixed to the collecting hopper 7. The inner wall of the collecting hopper has an anti-stick coating, and an inclined guide plate is provided at the bottom, with the lower end facing the discharge port.

[0028] Work process:

[0029] When waste needs to be recycled, the mobile trolley 1 is pushed below the waste discharge port. By controlling the extension and retraction of the cylinder 5, the guide sleeve 3 moves the mounting base 4, the tilting mechanism 6, and the collection hopper 7 up and down to adjust to a suitable height to receive the waste. After the waste is full, the reduction motor 64 is started, and its output shaft drives the lead screw 65 to rotate. The threaded sleeve 66 moves on the lead screw 65, pushing the movable seat 67 through the push rod 68, causing the rotating seat 63 to rotate around the shaft seat 62, which in turn tilts the collection hopper 7, realizing the automatic dumping of the waste. After dumping is completed, the reduction motor 64 reverses, the collection hopper 7 is reset, and the cylinder 5 lowers the collection hopper 7, pushing the trolley to the next waste recycling point or waste processing area.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
