Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste recycling equipment technology, specifically to a punching waste recycling device. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of gratings (such as metal gratings and plastic gratings), punching is required on the sheet metal, generating scrap and waste. Punching waste recycling equipment is designed to collect this waste, preventing it from scattering and piling up randomly, creating a messy workshop environment, or interfering with the normal activities of production personnel. Furthermore, scattered waste is difficult to collect, hindering recycling and resulting in waste. Currently, there are devices for recycling punching waste. To eliminate the need for manual monitoring of the waste level in the recycling bin and prevent overflow, infrared sensors are typically installed on the top inside the bin to determine the waste level. However, this identification method is often susceptible to interference, leading to inaccurate results. For example, waste falling through the sensor can affect its readings. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the problems in the background technology and improve the accuracy of identifying the amount of punching waste to be recycled, this utility model proposes a punching waste recycling device, including a recycling box and a discharge device for discharging the waste from the recycling box. A chassis is provided below the recycling box, and the recycling box is slidably connected to the chassis. The bottom of the recycling box is connected to the chassis by a spring, and the extension and contraction direction of the spring is consistent with the sliding direction of the recycling box. A sensing plate is provided on the outer wall of the recycling box, and a photoelectric sensor that cooperates with the sensing plate is provided on the chassis. The photoelectric sensor is connected to an alarm device.

[0004] Preferably, the recycling bin is provided with sliders on both sides, the chassis is fixed with upright plates on both sides, and the upright plates are provided with slide rails on the side near the recycling bin. The two sliders are slidably connected to the two slide rails respectively.

[0005] Preferably, there are four springs, which are located at the four corners of the recycling bin, and the two ends of the springs are fixedly connected to the recycling bin and the chassis, respectively.

[0006] Preferably, limit rods are fixed at the four corners of the bottom of the recycling bin, the springs are sleeved on the outside of the limit rods, and the chassis has limit holes at positions corresponding to the limit rods for the limit rods to pass through.

[0007] Preferably, the discharge device includes a vacuum feeder, a feed pipe, and a discharge pipe. One end of the feed pipe is connected to the recycling bin, and the other end of the feed pipe is connected to the input end of the vacuum feeder. The output end of the vacuum feeder is connected to the discharge pipe.

[0008] Preferably, a corrugated pipe is connected to the center of the bottom of the recycling bin, the end of the corrugated pipe away from the recycling bin is connected to the chassis, one end of the feed pipe is connected to the chassis and the position of this end of the feed pipe corresponds to the position of the corrugated pipe, and the feed pipe is connected to the recycling bin through the corrugated pipe.

[0009] Preferably, support feet are fixed at the four corners of the bottom of the chassis.

[0010] Preferably, the alarm device is a buzzer or an alarm light.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] This invention features a recycling bin slidably connected to a chassis, with the bottom of the bin connected to the chassis via a spring. A sensor plate is mounted on the recycling bin, and a photoelectric sensor, cooperating with the sensor plate, is mounted on the chassis. When the recycling bin is filled with waste, it moves downwards under the weight of the waste, causing the sensor plate to reach the photoelectric sensor. When the photoelectric sensor detects the sensor plate, it indicates that the amount of waste in the recycling bin has reached a preset level. At this point, the photoelectric sensor transmits a signal to an alarm device, alerting staff that the recycling bin is full. Staff can then activate the discharge equipment to empty the waste from the recycling bin. This invention confirms the amount of waste by weight and converts this weight into displacement for monitoring, thus achieving waste quantity monitoring. Furthermore, the sensing component of this invention is located on the outside of the recycling bin, unaffected by the falling waste, ensuring the accuracy of the monitoring.

[0017] To make this utility model clearer and more understandable, the technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the given embodiments are only one of the implementation methods and do not represent all embodiments.

[0018] In this article, terms such as "inner," "outer," "upper," and "lower" are established based on the positional relationships shown in the attached drawings. Depending on the attached drawings, the corresponding positional relationships may also change. Therefore, they should not be interpreted as an absolute limitation on the scope of protection.

[0019] Combined with appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 3 A punching waste recycling device includes a recycling bin 1 and a discharge device for discharging waste from the recycling bin 1. A base 2 is provided below the recycling bin 1. The recycling bin 1 and the base 2 are slidably connected. The bottom of the recycling bin 1 and the base 2 are connected by a spring 7. The extension and retraction direction of the spring 7 is consistent with the sliding direction of the recycling bin 1. A sensing plate 3 is provided on the outer wall of the recycling bin 1. A photoelectric sensor 4 that cooperates with the sensing plate 3 is provided on the base 2. The photoelectric sensor 4 is connected to an alarm device.

[0020] The punching waste recycling device is placed below the punching equipment, allowing the punching waste to fall into the recycling bin 1. After waste falls into the recycling bin 1, it moves downwards under the force of gravity. When the recycling bin 1 is full, the sensing element 3 moves with the recycling bin 1 to the photoelectric sensor 4. The photoelectric sensor 4 then transmits a signal to the alarm device to alert the staff that the bin is full. The distance between the sensing element 3 and the photoelectric sensor 4 is set according to the weight of different waste materials and the volume of the recycling bin 1, ensuring that the photoelectric sensor 4 detects the sensing element 3's position when the recycling bin 1 reaches a preset full capacity. After the discharge device discharges the waste from the recycling bin 1, the recycling bin 1 automatically returns to its original position under the action of the spring 7.

[0021] Specifically, the sensor plate 3 can be detachably connected to the recycling bin 1. For example, the sensor plate 3 can be fixed to a fixed plate. The side wall of the recycling bin 1 has threaded holes at different heights. The fixed plate with the sensor plate 3 is fixed to the recycling bin 1 by bolts and threaded holes. The different heights of the holes represent the positions required for the sensor plate 3 when processing different materials (plastic materials have a small mass, so the sensor plate 3 needs to be at a higher position when processing plastic grids; metal materials usually have a larger mass, so the sensor plate 3 needs to be at a relatively lower position when processing metal grids). The position of the sensor plate 3 can be adjusted to adapt to the processing of grids of different materials.

[0022] Specifically, the recycling bin 1 is provided with sliders 6 on both sides, and the base 2 is fixed with upright plates 5 on both sides. The upright plates 5 are provided with slide rails on the side closest to the recycling bin 1, and the two sliders 6 are slidably connected to the two slide rails respectively. The cooperation between the slide rails and sliders 6 can improve the stability of the movement of the recycling bin 1.

[0023] Specifically, there are four springs 7, located at the four corners of the recycling bin 1, with each end of the spring 7 fixedly connected to the recycling bin 1 and the base 2. More specifically, limit rods 8 are fixed at the four corners of the bottom of the recycling bin 1, with the springs 7 sleeved on the outside of the limit rods 8. The base 2 has limit holes corresponding to the positions of the limit rods 8, allowing the limit rods 8 to pass through. The limit rods 8 restrict the extension and retraction path of the springs 7, further improving the stability of the recycling bin 1's movement. When the recycling bin 1 moves downwards and the springs 7 are compressed, the bottom end of the limit rod 8 can pass through the limit hole into the base 2, preventing the base 2 from interfering with the movement of the limit rod 8.

[0024] Specifically, the discharge equipment includes a vacuum feeder 12, a feed pipe 11, and a discharge pipe 13. One end of the feed pipe 11 is connected to the recycling bin 1, and the other end of the feed pipe 11 is connected to the input end of the vacuum feeder 12. The output end of the vacuum feeder 12 is connected to the discharge pipe 13. During discharge, the waste material in the recycling bin 1 is discharged by the vacuum feeder 12, eliminating the need for manual cleaning of the recycling bin 1.

[0025] More specifically, a corrugated pipe 10 is connected to the center of the bottom of the recycling bin 1. The end of the corrugated pipe 10 furthest from the recycling bin 1 is connected to the chassis 2. One end of the feed pipe 11 is connected to the chassis 2, and this end of the feed pipe 11 corresponds to the position of the corrugated pipe 10. The feed pipe 11 communicates with the recycling bin 1 through the corrugated pipe 10. The feed pipe 11, located at the center of the bottom of the recycling bin 1, improves the comprehensiveness of waste discharge from the recycling bin 1 and enhances the discharge efficiency. The corrugated pipe 10 can extend and retract with the recycling bin 1.

[0026] Support feet 9 are fixed at the four corners of the bottom of the chassis 2. The support feet 9 are used to support the chassis 2 and the recycling box 1, and can maintain a certain distance between the chassis 2 and the ground for the feeding pipe 11 to be placed.

[0027] Specifically, the alarm device is a buzzer or an alarm light, which sounds an alarm or flashes a light.

[0028] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will be able to make various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
