Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of maintenance racks, and in particular to a maintenance rack for a mixer discharge hopper. Background Technology

[0002] In highly automated concrete production processes, mixers are typically fixed inside mixing towers and installed several stories high. The discharge hopper is the last component for discharging the mixed concrete. To allow the concrete to directly enter the mixer truck, the discharge hopper is usually positioned at a high location to match the height of the mixer truck. Therefore, when inspecting and maintaining the discharge hopper, maintenance personnel need to work at a height, typically using an adjustable-height maintenance frame.

[0003] In related technologies, there are two types of maintenance frames: fixed and mobile. To facilitate periodic maintenance of the discharge hopper and prevent interference between the maintenance frame, the discharge hopper, and the transport vehicle that may affect production, a mobile maintenance frame is generally selected. When performing maintenance, the staff must first climb onto the working platform of the maintenance frame and then raise the working platform so that its height is close to that of the discharge hopper, so that the staff can perform maintenance on the discharge hopper.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, mixers are often large mixers with correspondingly large discharge hoppers, while the area of ​​the maintenance frame's working platform is small. This makes it impossible to fully inspect the discharge hopper at once, requiring the maintenance frame to be moved. For the safety of maintenance personnel, personnel must first descend from the maintenance frame before it can be moved, making the maintenance process cumbersome and inefficient. Therefore, this application proposes a maintenance frame for a mixer discharge hopper. Utility Model Content
