Detailed Implementation
[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this utility model provides an adjustable receiving trough, including a receiving trough body 1. A threaded hole 2 is provided on the receiving trough body 1, and an adjusting screw 3 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 2. One end of the adjusting screw 3 is rotatably connected to a rotating seat 4, and an adjusting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating seat 4. By rotating the adjusting screw 3 within the threaded hole 2, the adjusting screw 3 rotates and moves due to the thread action. The other end of the adjusting screw 3 rotates on the rotating seat 4, driving the adjusting plate 5 to move, thereby adjusting the position of the adjusting plate 5. A first slider 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the adjusting plate 5, and a first sliding groove is provided within the receiving trough body 1. 7. The first slider 6 is slidably connected to the first slide groove 7 to ensure the linear movement of the adjusting plate 5. The receiving groove 1 is provided with a second slide groove 14. The second slider 13 is detachably connected to the second slide groove 14 so that the material plate 11 can slide into the second slide groove 14 through the second slider 13, thereby mounting the material plate 11 on the spring 9. The material plate 11 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the second slider 13. The bottom surface of the material plate 11 is provided with a locking hole 12. The inner bottom surface of the receiving groove 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 8. The upper surface of the mounting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the spring 9. The end of the spring 9 away from the mounting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the fixing block 10.
[0024] Specifically, the adjusting plate 5 is provided with a groove, and the rotating seat 4 is located in the groove.
[0025] Furthermore, the fixing block 10 and the locking hole 12 are detachably connected, and the size of the fixing block 10 is smaller than that of the locking hole 12.
[0026] Furthermore, a telescopic rod 18 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 8, and the other end of the telescopic rod 18 is fixedly connected to the fixing block 10 to ensure the linear movement of the spring 9 and prevent the spring 9 from tilting.
[0027] It is worth noting that the receiving trough 1 is provided with a lifting slot 17, and multiple mounting plates 8 are located on both sides of the lifting slot 17. When materials need to be removed, the forklift can lift the material plate 11 through the lifting slot 17 and remove the material plate 11 from the receiving trough 1.
[0028] It is worth noting that the other end of the adjusting screw 3 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 15, and a control handle 16 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting rod 15 for controlling the rotation of the screw 3.
[0029] It is worth mentioning that a guide ramp is provided on one side of the receiving trough 1 and the adjusting plate 5 to guide the material to fall onto the material plate 11. The adjusting plate 5 is slidably connected to the receiving trough 1.
[0030] It is worth emphasizing that the rightmost end of the first chute 7 is located on the left side of the material plate 11 to prevent the adjusting plate 5 from affecting the up and down sliding of the material plate 11.
[0031] The telescopic rod 18 is existing technology and will not be described in detail. Additionally, this utility model also includes a power supply, controller, and switch, which are not the main technical points of this patent and will not be described in detail. The "front, back, left, and right" perspectives of this device are... Figure 1 The direction shown in the diagram is the reference.
[0032] Working principle: In use, firstly, the material plate 11 is installed in the receiving groove 1. The second slider 13 on the material plate 11 slides into the second slide groove 14, so that the fixing block 10 fits with the locking hole 12 on the material plate 11, completing the installation of the material plate 11. Then, according to the length of the workpiece, the position of the adjusting plate 5 is adjusted. The adjusting screw 3 rotates in the threaded hole 2. Due to the action of the thread, the adjusting screw 3 rotates and moves. The other end of the adjusting screw 3 rotates on the rotating seat 4 and drives the adjusting plate 5 to move, thereby adjusting the position of the adjusting plate 5. Then, the spring 9 pops out the material plate 11 by elastic force, reducing the falling height of the material. The material falls onto the material plate 11. The weight of the material presses down on the spring 9, causing the material plate 11 to slide down slowly, thus receiving the material in sequence. When it is necessary to remove the material, the forklift inserts the material plate 11 through the lifting slot 17 and removes the material plate 11 from the receiving groove 1.
