Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste collection technology, and in particular to a waste collection device with a compaction function. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of processing wood, milling machines are usually used to process wood to meet specific usage requirements. Milling machines generate waste chips during the processing of wood. In order to avoid the environmental impact of processing chips, the wood chips are cleaned up during the processing.
[0003] Currently, the most common way to clean wood chips during processing is to use a fan to adsorb the wood chips, causing them to enter and accumulate in a collection box. However, because the density of the wood chips in the collection box is low, frequent cleaning of the collection box is necessary to ensure effective collection, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a waste chip collection device with a compaction function to address the problem that the density of wood chips in the collection box is low, and that frequent cleaning of the wood chips in the collection box is required to ensure the collection effect during the collection process, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
[0005] Includes: a collection cylinder, a fan installed at the lower end of the surface of the collection cylinder, and a dust suction pipe connected to the top of the collection cylinder;
[0006] The collection mechanism includes a filter frame and an aggregating cylinder fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection cylinder. A mounting ring is connected to the middle of the bottom end of the filter frame. Threads are provided on the surface of the mounting ring and the upper surface of the aggregating cylinder. The mounting ring and the aggregating cylinder are fixedly installed by the threads. A circular ring is rotatably connected to the inner top wall of the collection cylinder. A moving rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the circular ring. A pressure plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the moving rod. Two connecting rods are fixedly connected to the surface of the circular ring. A scraper is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod away from the circular ring.
[0007] In one embodiment, the collecting mechanism further includes an electric push rod fixedly connected to the upper surface of the collecting cylinder. The telescopic end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to a mounting rod. The top end of the movable rod extends through the collecting cylinder and is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom end of the mounting rod. A spiral groove is formed on the surface of the movable rod, and a movable block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the spiral groove. The surface of the movable block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the ring. This facilitates driving the pressure plate downwards and simultaneously driving the ring to rotate synchronously with the scraper via the connecting rod, improving the consistency of the device's operation.
[0008] In one embodiment, the filter frame is funnel-shaped, and the scraper is inclined, with its bottom end fitting against the inner surface of the filter frame. The inclined surface of the filter frame facilitates better sliding of sawdust from the filter frame into the collecting cylinder.
[0009] In one embodiment, a filter plate is embedded at the bottom of the collecting cylinder, and the mesh diameter of the filter plate is the same as that of the filter frame. During the operation of the fan, the through holes of the filter plate facilitate the adsorption of sawdust inside the collecting cylinder, allowing the sawdust to be better retained within the collecting cylinder.
[0010] In one embodiment, the diameter of the pressure plate is the same as the inner diameter of the mounting ring and the inner diameter of the collecting cylinder, and the center of the pressure plate coincides with the center of the mounting ring and the center of the collecting cylinder. This ensures the compaction effect of the pressure plate on the sawdust in the collecting cylinder.
[0011] In one embodiment, a rotating ring is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the circular ring, and protective sleeves, made of rubber, are fixedly connected between the bottom end of the mounting rod and the top end of the collecting cylinder, and between the top end of the pressure plate and the bottom end of the rotating ring. This helps to protect the spiral groove, prevents debris from entering the spiral groove, and ensures the stability of the connection between the moving block and the spiral groove.
[0012] In one embodiment, the top of the pressure plate is angled. This facilitates better removal of debris from the top of the pressure plate.
[0013] In one embodiment, an operating ring is fixedly connected to the surface of the collecting cylinder, and the surface of the operating ring has multiple grooves. This facilitates easier disassembly and installation of the collecting cylinder by the operator.
[0014] Beneficial effects
[0015] 1. The aforementioned collection mechanism, through the interaction between the funnel-shaped filter frame and the collecting cylinder, effectively intercepts wood chips entering the collecting cylinder. The inclined surface of the filter frame facilitates the smooth sliding of the intercepted wood chips towards the collecting cylinder. Furthermore, the moving rod, spiral groove, and moving block drive the pressure plate downwards, driving the ring to rotate synchronously via the connecting rod, scraping away the wood chips retained on the filter frame and causing them to accumulate. The wood chips then slide down the inclined surface of the filter frame into the collecting cylinder, ensuring proper ventilation of the filter frame. The pressure plate also compacts the wood chips in the collecting cylinder, increasing their density and reducing the space occupied by the same amount of wood chips. This extends the cleaning cycle for the collected wood chips, saving time and effort.
[0016] 2. By setting up a protective sleeve, the spiral groove can be protected, preventing debris from entering the spiral groove and ensuring the stability of the connection between the moving block and the spiral groove during the operation of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0027] The following is combined Figures 1-6 This invention describes a waste chip collection device with a compaction function.
[0028] In one embodiment, a waste collection device with compaction function includes: a collection cylinder 100, a fan 200 installed at the lower end of the surface of the collection cylinder 100, and a dust suction pipe 300 connected to the top end of the collection cylinder 100.
[0029] The collection mechanism 400 includes a filter frame 410 and an aggregating cylinder 420 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection cylinder 100. The bottom center of the filter frame 410 is connected to an installation ring 411. The upper surface of the installation ring 411 and the upper surface of the aggregating cylinder 420 are both provided with threads. The installation ring 411 and the aggregating cylinder 420 are fixedly installed by the threads. The inner top wall of the collection cylinder 100 is rotatably connected to a ring 470. The inner wall of the ring 470 is rotatably connected to a moving rod 450. The bottom end of the moving rod 450 is fixedly connected to a pressure plate 460. The surface of the ring 470 is fixedly connected to two connecting rods 480. The end of the connecting rod 480 away from the ring 470 is fixedly connected to a scraper 481.
[0030] In this embodiment, the air inlet of the fan 200 is connected to the collection cylinder 100, and the connection is located below the collection cylinder 100. In the initial state, the pressure plate 460 is far away from the filter frame 410.
[0031] A removable cover plate is installed on the surface of the collection cylinder 100. The cover plate is installed on the collection cylinder 100 by bolts. During normal use, the cover plate and the collection cylinder 100 form a whole after installation. When it is necessary to clean the sawdust collected in the collection cylinder 420, the operator can remove the cover plate and disconnect the collection cylinder 420 from the mounting ring 411 to take out the collection cylinder 420 and clean the sawdust inside the collection cylinder 420.
[0032] It should be noted that the collection cylinder 100 is located on one side of the milling machine, and the air inlet of the dust suction pipe 300 is located above the milling machine, which ensures that the dust is sucked up during the processing without affecting the normal processing operation of the milling machine on the wood.
[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the collection mechanism 400 also includes an electric push rod 430 fixedly connected to the upper end of the surface of the collection cylinder 100. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 430 is fixedly connected to an installation rod 440. The top end of the moving rod 450 extends through the collection cylinder 100 and is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom end of the installation rod 440. A spiral groove 451 is formed on the surface of the moving rod 450. A moving block 471 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the spiral groove 451. The surface of the moving block 471 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the ring 470.
[0034] In this embodiment, when the electric push rod 430 is activated, the telescopic end of the electric push rod 430 pushes the mounting rod 440 downward and drives the moving rod 450 downward synchronously. When the mounting rod 440 moves downward to the lowest height, the mounting rod 440 pushes the pressure plate 460 downward to the lowest height through the moving rod 450. When the pressure plate 460 moves downward to the lowest height, the bottom end of the pressure plate 460 contacts the inner bottom wall of the collecting cylinder 420.
[0035] Furthermore, when the moving rod 450 moves downward, the moving block 471 will move within the spiral groove 451. Under the action of the spiral groove 451 and the moving block 471, the ring 470 will be driven to rotate synchronously. When the pressure plate 460 moves downward and enters the mounting ring 411, the rotation angle of the ring 470 is greater than 360 degrees.
[0036] It should be noted that a round rod is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the mounting rod 440. The bottom end of the round rod penetrates into the collection cylinder 100, and the surface of the round rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the collection cylinder 100. The round rod limits the movement path of the mounting rod 440 and the moving rod 450.
[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the filter frame 410 is funnel-shaped, and the scraper 481 is inclined, with the bottom end of the scraper 481 in contact with the inner surface of the filter frame 410.
[0038] In this embodiment, the two scraper rods 481 are symmetrical about the center of the filter frame 410, and the two scraper rods 481 will always be in contact with the inner surface of the filter frame 410 during rotation.
[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, a filter plate 421 is embedded in the bottom end of the collecting cylinder 420, and the mesh diameter of the filter plate 421 is the same as the mesh diameter of the filter frame 410.
[0040] In this embodiment, when the fan 200 is started by the controller to discharge the air in the collection cylinder 100, the filter plate 421 mesh and the wind force will generate suction on the wood chips gathered in the collection cylinder 420, so that the wood chips are better retained in the collection cylinder 420.
[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, the diameter of the pressure plate 460 is the same as the inner diameter of the mounting ring 411 and the inner diameter of the collecting cylinder 420, and the center of the pressure plate 460 coincides with the center of the mounting ring 411 and the center of the collecting cylinder 420.
[0042] In this embodiment, when the pressure plate 460 moves vertically downward, the pressure plate 460 will enter the collecting cylinder 420, and at this time, the surface of the pressure plate 460 will be in contact with the inner wall of the collecting cylinder 420.
[0043] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a rotating ring 472 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the ring 470. Protective sleeves 490 are fixedly connected between the bottom end of the mounting rod 440 and the top end of the collecting cylinder 100, and between the top end of the pressure plate 460 and the bottom end of the rotating ring 472. The protective sleeves 490 are rubber components.
[0044] In this embodiment, the movable rod 450 is disposed inside the protective sleeve 490. The protective sleeve 490 of the rubber component can be deformed, and under the action of rubber elasticity, it can return to the initial state after deformation.
[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, the top of the pressure plate 460 is inclined. The top of the pressure plate 460 is conical, which allows the debris at the top of the pressure plate 460 to fall off more effectively.
[0046] like Figure 3 As shown, an operating ring 422 is fixedly connected to the surface of the collecting cylinder 420, and the surface of the operating ring 422 has multiple grooves. When the operator needs to disassemble or install the collecting cylinder 420, they can hold the operating ring 422 to perform the installation and disassembly operations.
[0047] Working principle: When collecting wood chips using this device, the fan 200 is started by the controller. The fan 200 discharges the air in the collection cylinder 100, creating a negative pressure in the collection cylinder 100. This causes the suction pipe 300 to adsorb the wood chips from the wood processing process. The adsorbed wood chips enter the collection cylinder 100. The filter frame 410 and the gathering cylinder 420 intercept the wood chips. Under the action of the inclined surface of the filter frame 410, some of the wood chips retained on the filter frame 410 will slide into the gathering cylinder 420 and remain there.
[0048] When the wood chips to be collected are to be gathered and compacted, the blower 200 is turned off, and the electric push rod 430 is started by the controller. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 430 pushes the mounting rod 440 downward, thereby driving the moving rod 450 to move downward synchronously. During the downward movement of the moving rod 450, it pushes the pressure plate 460 downward, and under the action of the spiral groove 451 and the moving block 471, it drives the ring 470 to rotate synchronously. Through the connecting rod 480, it drives the scraper 481 to rotate. During the rotation, the scraper 481 scrapes off the wood chips retained on the filter frame 410. During the scraping process, the wood chips will gather. The gathered wood chips will slide down the inclined surface of the filter frame 410 towards the gathering cylinder 420 and enter the gathering cylinder 420. During this process, the pressure plate 460 continues to move downward and enter the gathering cylinder 420 to compact the wood chips gathered in the gathering cylinder 420, ensuring that the collected debris is gathered while increasing the density of the collected wood chips in the gathering cylinder 420.
[0049] It should be noted that the fan 200 and electric actuator 430 mentioned above are all devices with relatively mature existing technology. The specific model can be selected according to actual needs. At the same time, the fan 200 and electric actuator 430 can be powered by the built-in power supply or by the mains power. The specific power supply method should be selected according to the situation, which will not be elaborated here.
[0050] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
