Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of renewable resource recycling and processing technology, and in particular to a metal scrap feeding device and feeding equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Metal scrap is a recyclable resource generated during the machining of metal blanks or parts. The machining industry produces a large amount of turning metal scrap annually, which is typically handled in bulk. However, bulk metal scrap is inconvenient for transportation and reuse in furnaces. Therefore, metal scrap briquetting machines have emerged, capable of directly cold-pressing iron, steel, copper, or aluminum scraps of various shapes into briquettes for easier storage, transportation, and recycling in furnaces.

[0003] In the cold pressing stage of metal scrap, a lifting conveyor is typically used to transport the scrap to the feed end of the briquetting machine. However, due to the large hopper height of typical lifting conveyors, adding metal scrap to the hopper during actual feeding presents numerous inconveniences, especially for recycling plants with limited processing space, which usually use material carts for scrap handling and feeding. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a device or equipment that allows material carts loaded with metal scrap to directly feed the hopper of the lifting conveyor. Utility Model Content

The two tilting drive components are respectively located on both sides of the tilting bucket. The lifting drive components drive the two lifting slides to slide synchronously upwards, so that the two lifting slides drive the tilting bucket to slide to a preset height. Then, the two tilting drive components drive the tilting bucket to rotate relative to the two lifting slides to a preset angle, so that the opening of the material trolley's bucket faces the opening of the lifting conveyor's hopper.

[0009] In one embodiment, the metal scrap feeding device further includes a positioning base; the two guide columns and the lifting drive are all mounted on the positioning base.

[0010] In one embodiment, the lifting mechanism further includes an arched connecting frame, one end of which is fixedly connected to one of the lifting slides, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to another of the lifting slides. The power output end of the lifting drive is connected to the middle of the arched connecting frame.

[0012] In one embodiment, the parking space includes a tipping opening communicating with the parking space;

[0013] The metal scrap feeding device further includes at least two limiting stops, which are arranged opposite to each other at the tipping opening. One end of each limiting stop is connected to the tipping hopper, and the other end of each limiting stop extends to the tipping opening.

[0021] This utility model discloses a metal scrap feeding device. Two guide columns are spaced apart on one side of the hopper of a lifting conveyor. A lifting drive unit drives two lifting slides to slide upwards relative to the two guide columns, simultaneously causing the tipping hopper to slide upwards. Then, two tipping drive units drive the tipping hopper to rotate relative to the two lifting slides. In this way, a material cart loaded with metal scraps can be placed in a parking space.

The metal scrap feeding device includes a lifting mechanism and a tilting mechanism. The lifting mechanism includes two guide columns, two lifting slides, and a lifting drive component.

[0032] Please see Figures 1 to 4 To better understand the metal scrap feeding device 10 of this application, the following further explanation of the metal scrap feeding device 10 is provided:

[0033] A metal scrap feeding device 10, according to one embodiment, is installed on one side of the hopper of a lifting conveyor 100. The metal scrap feeding device 10 includes a lifting mechanism 200 and a tilting mechanism 300. The lifting mechanism 200 includes two guide columns 210, two lifting slides 220, and a lifting drive 230. The two guide columns 210 are spaced apart on one side of the hopper of the lifting conveyor 100. The two lifting slides 220 are slidably connected to the two guide columns 210 in a one-to-one correspondence. The lifting drive 230 is located between the two guide columns 210 and is used to drive the two lifting slides 220 to slide up and down relative to the two guide columns 210. The tilting mechanism 300 includes a tilting hopper 310 and two tilting drive 320. One end of the tilting hopper 310 is connected to the two lifting slides 220. The tipping bucket 310 is connected to a rotating joint. A parking space 3101 is provided at the other end of the tipping bucket 310. The parking space 3101 is used to accommodate and limit the material trolley 400. Two tipping drive members 320 are respectively located on both sides of the tipping bucket 310. The lifting drive member 230 drives the two lifting slides 220 to slide synchronously upwards. After the two lifting slides 220 move the tipping bucket 310 to a preset height, the two tipping drive members 320 drive the tipping bucket 310 to rotate relative to the two lifting slides 220 to a preset angle, so that the opening of the material trolley 400 faces the opening of the hopper of the lifting conveyor 100.

[0034] In this embodiment, the metal scrap feeding device 10 of this utility model has two guide columns 210 spaced apart on one side of the hopper of the lifting conveyor 100. The lifting drive 230 drives the two lifting slides 220 to slide and rise relative to the two guide columns 210, so as to synchronously drive the tilting hopper 310 to slide and rise. Then, the two tilting drive 320 drives the tilting hopper 310 to rotate relative to the two lifting slides 220. In this way, the material cart 400 loaded with metal scraps can be placed in the parking space 3101. The lifting drive 230 drives the two lifting slides 220 to slide upward, so as to simultaneously drive the tipping bucket 310 to slide to the preset height. Then, the two tipping drive 320 drives the tipping bucket 310 to rotate to the preset angle, so that the bucket opening of the material cart 400 faces the bucket opening of the lifting conveyor 100, thereby realizing the dumping of metal scraps. That is, the material cart 400 directly feeds the bucket of the lifting conveyor 100, which improves the convenience of feeding materials using the material cart 400 and better meets the application requirements of some recycling plants with limited processing space.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, in one embodiment, the metal scrap feeding device 10 further includes a positioning base 500; the two guide columns 210 and the lifting drive component 230 are all mounted on the positioning base 500. This improves the structural stability of the guide columns 210 and the lifting drive component 230 while ensuring the structural compactness of the installed components.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the lifting mechanism 200 further includes an arched connecting frame 240. One end of the arched connecting frame 240 is fixedly connected to one of the lifting slides 220, and the other end of the arched connecting frame 240 is fixedly connected to the other lifting slide 220. The power output end of the lifting drive member 230 is connected to the middle of the arched connecting frame 240. Thus, by using one lifting drive member 230, two lifting slides 220 can be synchronously driven to slide up and down relative to the two guide columns 210. Specifically, in this embodiment, the two lifting slides 220 are welded to the arched connecting frame 240 respectively.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the lifting drive component 230 is a telescopic hydraulic cylinder. Thus, the telescopic hydraulic cylinder can provide a stable and reliable power output to drive the lifting slide 220, thereby ensuring the stability of the sliding of the lifting slide 220, and further ensuring that the lifting slide 220 can synchronously drive the tilting truck bed 310 to slide stably, while also achieving the sliding reset of the lifting slide 220.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the parking space 3101 includes a tipping opening 3102 connected to the parking space 3101; the metal scrap feeding device 10 also includes at least two limiting stops 600, the two limiting stops 600 are disposed opposite to each other at the tipping opening 3102, one end of each limiting stop 600 is connected to the tipping bucket 310, and the other end of each limiting stop 600 extends to the tipping opening 3102.

[0039] It is understood that in this embodiment, by adding two limiting stops 600 at the tipping opening 3102, and ensuring that the other end of each limiting stop 600 extends into the tipping opening 3102, the material cart 400 in the parking space 3101 can be limited. Specifically, when the tipping hopper 310 is tilted to a preset angle to tip metal scraps, the limiting stops 600 can prevent the material cart 400 from falling out of the parking space 3101, thereby ensuring the reliability and safety of the feeding. Specifically, the limiting stops 600 can be detachable long screws. By screwing one end of the long screw to the tipping hopper 310 and ensuring that the other end of the long screw extends into the tipping opening 3102, a limiting effect is formed on the tipping hopper 310. In other embodiments, the tipping hopper 310 has multiple screw holes of different heights on both sides, so that one end of a long screw can be screwed into the screw holes of different heights, thereby achieving the function of limiting the material cart 400 of different heights.

[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, two rotating supports 3110 protrude from the other end of the tipping truck bed 310. The two rotating supports 3110 are disposed opposite to each other on two sides of the tipping truck bed 310. The power output end of each tipping drive member 320 is rotatably connected to the corresponding rotating support 3110, and the end of each tipping drive member 320 away from the rotating support 3110 is rotatably connected to the corresponding lifting slide 220. In one embodiment, both tipping drive members 320 are telescopic hydraulic cylinders.

[0041] It is understood that in this embodiment, the tilting drive 320 adopts a telescopic hydraulic cylinder, that is, the telescopic shaft of the telescopic hydraulic cylinder is rotatably connected to the rotating support 3110, and the end of the telescopic hydraulic cylinder away from the rotating support 3110 is rotatably connected to the lifting slide 220. In this way, multiple degrees of freedom of rotation are used. When the telescopic shaft of the telescopic hydraulic cylinder is pushed out, it will drive the tilting bucket 310 to tilt around the rotation center axis of the tilting bucket 310, which is rotatably connected to the two lifting slides 220 at one end, and gradually form a trend of tilting the bucket closer to the lifting conveyor 100. The tilting bucket 310 stops after tilting to a preset angle. At this time, the bucket opening of the material cart 400 faces the bucket opening of the lifting conveyor 100.

[0042] It should be noted that, as Figure 2 As shown, the rotational axis of the tipping truck bed 310, which is rotatably connected to the two lifting slides 220 around one end of the tipping truck bed 310, is X. During the tipping process of the tipping truck bed 310, the rotational axis of the telescopic hydraulic cylinder and the rotating support 3110 is Y, and the rotational axis of the telescopic hydraulic cylinder and the lifting slide 220 is Z.

[0043] It should also be noted that, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the tilting bucket 310 rotates within an angle range of 0-90 degrees. The method for controlling the tilting angle range of the tilting bucket 310 and its related structure of the rotating shaft are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here. This application only protects the position of each component and its connection relationship.

[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the parking space 3101 further includes a push port 3103 connected to the parking space 3101; the metal scrap feeding device 10 also includes a rotating guardrail 700, which is disposed at the push port 3103 and is hinged to the tipping hopper 310. Thus, the user can push the material cart 400 into the parking space 3101 through the push port 3103, and then fix it to the push port 3103 by rotating the guardrail 700 to restrict the movement of the material cart 400, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the process of directly feeding the hopper of the lifting conveyor 100 with the material cart 400.

[0045] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, a guide plate 3120 protrudes from the periphery of the tipping hopper 310 adjacent to the tipping opening 3102. This allows metal scraps poured from the hopper opening of the material cart 400 to slide more effectively through the guide plate 3120 into the hopper of the lifting conveyor 100, thereby improving the feeding efficiency of the material cart 400.

[0046] This application also provides a metal scrap feeding device, including the metal scrap feeding device 10 described in any of the above embodiments.

[0047] In this embodiment, the metal scrap feeding device of this invention has two guide columns spaced apart on one side of the hopper of the lifting conveyor. A lifting drive unit drives two lifting slides to slide upwards relative to the two guide columns, synchronously driving the tipping hopper to slide upwards. Then, two tipping drive units drive the tipping hopper to rotate relative to the two lifting slides. In this way, a material cart loaded with metal scrap can be placed in a parking space. The lifting drive unit drives the two lifting slides to slide upwards, synchronously driving the tipping hopper to slide to a preset height. Then, the two tipping drive units drive the tipping hopper to rotate to a preset angle, so that the opening of the material cart's hopper faces the opening of the lifting conveyor's hopper, thus realizing the dumping of metal scraps. That is, the material cart directly feeds the hopper of the lifting conveyor, improving the convenience of using the material cart for feeding and better meeting the application requirements of recycling plants with limited processing space.

[0048] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages:

[0049] This utility model discloses a metal scrap feeding device. Two guide columns are spaced apart on one side of the hopper of a lifting conveyor. A lifting drive unit drives two lifting slides to slide upwards relative to the two guide columns, simultaneously causing the tipping hopper to slide upwards. Then, two tipping drive units drive the tipping hopper to rotate relative to the two lifting slides. In this way, a material cart loaded with metal scraps can be placed in a parking space. The lifting drive unit drives the two lifting slides to slide upwards, simultaneously causing the tipping hopper to slide to a preset height. Then, the two tipping drive units drive the tipping hopper to rotate to a preset angle, ensuring that the opening of the material cart's bucket faces the opening of the lifting conveyor's hopper, thus achieving the dumping of metal scraps. This means that the material cart directly feeds the hopper of the lifting conveyor, improving the convenience of feeding using the material cart and better meeting the application requirements of recycling plants with limited processing space.

[0050] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
