Detailed Implementation
[0025] 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. Example
[0026] Please see Figure 1-6 As shown, the technical solution provided by this utility model is a waste paint bucket material grabbing device. This addresses the problem of manual cleaning of waste paint buckets, which is cumbersome due to their varying heights and the potential for clumps of material to cause harm. Manual cleaning is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and ineffective. This application uses an electric moving mechanism to move a screw-connected pallet. Different sized waste paint buckets can be manually clamped onto the pallet, aligning them with a gear lifting mechanism. The gear lifting mechanism then allows the material grabbing mechanism to grab the solidified material inside the waste paint bucket. Furthermore, the material grabbing mechanism is easily replaceable for waste paint buckets of different diameters, making it more flexible and convenient to use.
[0027] The specific structure includes a base 1, with four corners on the bottom surface of the base 1 each equipped with a movable wheel 12 featuring a wheel brake for easy movement. An electric moving mechanism 2 is internally mounted on the base 1. The electric moving mechanism 2 is used to electrically move the waste paint bucket 100 below the toothed lifting mechanism, facilitating gripping by the material gripping mechanism 5. Figure 3-4As shown, the electric moving mechanism 2 includes a transverse drive motor 21 with a drive shaft and a threaded rod 23. A motor cylinder 22 for mounting the drive motor is provided on one side of the base. The drive motor and the miniature drive motors 55 and 46 described below are all connected to motor wires. A power plug is provided at the end of the motor wire, and a knob is installed on the motor wire. This knob has forward / reverse and on / off functions; it is an existing connection structure and its model can be flexibly used. One end of the threaded rod 23 is coupled to the drive shaft of the transverse drive motor 21. A moving opening 11 is opened on the top surface of the base 1, and a clamping mechanism 3 is screwed and movable onto the threaded rod 23. The clamping mechanism 3 is used to manually clamp and fix waste paint buckets 100 of different sizes.
[0028] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the clamping mechanism 3 includes a support plate 31 screwed to the threaded rod 23. The bottom surface of the support plate 31 is provided with a threaded block 32 that is movably connected to the threaded rod 23. A fixing block 321 passing through a moving opening is provided between the threaded block and the support plate 31. A baffle 33 is provided on the support plate 31, and a clamping plate 37 is screwed to the baffle 33. A first stud 34 is provided on the outer side of the clamping plate 37. An inner threaded tube 35, which is screwed to the first stud 34, is embedded in the baffle 33. A flange nut 36 is screwed to the first stud 34. The clamping plate 37 is manually screwed on. In this embodiment, the clamping plate 37 has a circular structure, which clamps the waste paint bucket 100 and is then fixed by the flange nut 36.
[0029] The base 1 has a first vertical plate 13 and a second vertical plate 14 on its left and right sides, respectively. The inner sides of the first and second vertical plates 14 are provided with a first connecting block 15 and a second connecting block 16 with inner openings. A gear lifting mechanism 4 is axially connected inside the first and second connecting blocks 16.
[0030] like Figure 5As shown, the gear lifting mechanism 4 includes a gear 41 and a gear 42 respectively shafted within the first and second connecting blocks 16, and a tooth lifting rod 47 meshing with the gears 41 and 42. A limiting plate 48 is provided on the top surface of the tooth lifting rod 47 to prevent the top surface from disengaging from the meshing structure. Both gears 41 and 42 are fixedly mounted with axles 43, which connect them to the first and second connecting blocks 16. Pulleys 44 are mounted at the rear ends of the fixed axles 43 of both gears 41 and 42, and are rotatably connected by belts 45. A mounting cylinder 461 is provided on the back of the first connecting block 15, and a motor 46 is installed inside the mounting cylinder 461. The motor 46 has a drive shaft and a coupling with the fixed axle 43 of gear 41. Thus, the gear 41 is electrically driven to rotate. Since gears 41 and 42 are connected by belts 45, they rotate in the same direction, thereby raising and lowering the tooth lifting rod 47. The bottom surface of the toothed lifting rod 47 is screwed with a material gripping mechanism 5, which is used for electrically gripping the material inside the waste paint bucket 100. This material gripping mechanism 5 is an assembly structure, which is convenient for replacement.
[0031] like Figure 6 As shown, the material gripping mechanism 5 includes a flat plate 51 and a micro drive motor 55. A second stud 53 is provided on the top surface of the flat plate 51, and a fixing cylinder for mounting the micro drive motor 55 is provided on one side of the flat plate 51. A second internal threaded tube 54, screwed onto the bottom surface of the toothed lifting rod 47, is embedded therein, forming a screwed assembly structure. Different sizes of material gripping mechanisms can be replaced according to the required diameter of different waste paint buckets 100. A toothed plate 56 is provided on one side of the bottom surface of the flat plate 51, and a threaded shaft 59 is axially connected inside the clamping plate. One end of the threaded shaft 59 is connected to the micro drive motor 55, and a mating toothed plate 57 is screwed and movable on the bottom surface of the threaded shaft 59. A second movable opening 52 is opened on the bottom surface of the flat plate 51, and a movable block 58, screwed and movable to the threaded shaft, is provided on the top surface of the mating toothed plate 57. The movable block 58 passes through the second movable port 52, which facilitates electric screw-in movement, so that the mating toothed plate 57 and toothed plate 56 can be fitted together to grab and process the material in the waste paint bucket 100.
[0032] The threaded rod 23 and threaded shaft 59 described above are each provided with a shaft portion 24 fitted with ball bearings at both ends, and the base and plate 51 are both provided with opposing shaft tubes 25. This facilitates the rotation of the threaded rod 23 and threaded shaft 59.
[0033] The working principle of the above structure is as follows: This application uses an electric moving mechanism, through a threaded rod connected to a drive motor coupling, to move the pallet below the toothed lifting mechanism. A micro motor drives gear one to drive gear two to achieve lifting, causing the material grabbing mechanism screwed onto the bottom of the toothed rod to move into the waste paint bucket. The motor drives the mating toothed plate to move in the direction of the toothed plate to grab the solidified material in the waste paint bucket according to different types of waste paint buckets. Then, the toothed lifting mechanism moves the waste paint bucket upwards to achieve grabbing.
[0034] Although the present invention 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 the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
