Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sludge processing technology, and in particular to ceramsite loading boxes and their conveying structures. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of new building materials, silt-ceramsite, as a material with broad application prospects, has attracted much attention in its production process. The production of silt-ceramsite involves several key steps, such as molding and steam curing, and the efficiency and effectiveness of each step directly affect the quality and performance of the final product.

[0003] Traditional ceramsite loading bins have significant shortcomings: In the discharge stage, the discharge design of traditional loading boxes is not scientific enough, often resulting in the accumulation and blockage of ceramsite at the discharge port. This makes it difficult to pour the ceramsite smoothly, greatly prolonging the unloading time, increasing the difficulty and labor intensity of manual operation, and reducing production efficiency.

[0004] In the curing process, traditional loading boxes often use enclosed side panels. This design hinders air circulation inside the loading box, making it difficult for external high-temperature and humid air to enter the ceramsite during steam curing. This results in a longer curing time and lower efficiency. This not only affects the quality and performance of the ceramsite but also increases energy consumption and production costs.

[0005] When stacked, traditional loading bins lack stability and are prone to shaking or tilting, posing safety hazards and hindering the rational use of warehouse space. Traditional conveying methods also have many drawbacks in terms of the conveying structure of ceramsite loading bins. They are often inefficient, unable to accurately convey each bin individually, and require manual operation.

[0006] In summary, existing ceramsite loading boxes and their conveying structures have many technical problems in terms of discharge, curing, stacking, and conveying, which seriously restrict the improvement of silt ceramsite production efficiency and quality.

[0007] Therefore, we propose a ceramsite loading box and its conveying structure. Utility Model Content

[0008] Therefore, it is necessary to address the technical problems existing in the discharge, curing, and stacking of traditional ceramsite loading boxes, as well as the conveying of traditional conveying structures, and to provide ceramsite loading boxes and their conveying structures. This would enable smoother discharge, higher curing efficiency, and more stable stacking of ceramsite, and allow the conveying structure of the ceramsite loading box to achieve precise and automated conveying of each ceramsite, thereby improving the production efficiency and product quality of ceramsite.

[0009] The first aspect of this utility model provides a ceramsite loading box, including a box body comprising a frame structure and a plate structure. The plate structure covers the circumferential side walls and bottom wall of the frame, and a discharge plate extending outward and inclined to the frame is provided on one of the circumferential side walls of the frame. Four corner-protecting structures are connected to the corners of one end face of the frame structure in a first direction. Each corner-protecting structure includes two connecting pieces extending in an L-shape along the first direction. A support assembly includes two sets of support structures connected to both sides of the box body and arranged opposite each other. Each set of support structures has four support units, which are distributed in a matrix at the four corners of the box body's side. This ceramsite loading box, through its inclined discharge plate design, avoids the accumulation and blockage of ceramsite at the discharge port, making the dumping of ceramsite smoother and improving discharge efficiency. The corner-protecting structures enhance the overall stability of the box body and facilitate stacking. The stable support system formed by the support assembly facilitates subsequent clamping, conveying, and dumping, and can evenly distribute the weight borne by the box body, preventing deformation. It also facilitates the stacking of the loading box and saves space.

[0010] In other embodiments, the plate structure includes a perforated plate connected to three side walls of the frame structure circumferentially, excluding the discharge plate side. By using the perforated plate, air can circulate freely inside the loading box when the sludge-ceramsite subsequently enters the curing chamber for steam curing, allowing for better contact between the hot steam and the ceramsite, improving heat transfer efficiency, significantly shortening curing time, and increasing curing efficiency.

[0011] In other embodiments, a support foot is also included, which is connected to the bottom wall of the container. The support foot separates the container from the ground by a certain distance, preventing ground moisture from affecting the ceramsite inside the container, and also facilitates the movement and handling of the container. Operators can easily lift and transport it using forklifts or other equipment, improving work efficiency.

[0012] In other embodiments, the ends of the two connecting pieces furthest from the frame are folded outwards horizontally. This design forms guide grooves during bin stacking, facilitating accurate placement of the support legs into the corner-wrapping structure, reducing stacking difficulty and time, ensuring a tight fit between the support legs and the corner-wrapping structure, preventing loosening or displacement during stacking, improving stacking safety and reliability, increasing warehouse utilization, and reducing space waste.

[0013] In other embodiments, the projection of the supporting unit in the second direction is L-shaped, and the discharge plate extends outward along the second direction. The L-shaped projection design of the supporting unit in the second direction facilitates the handling and operation of the loading box by clamping equipment on the subsequent automated production line, improving clamping stability and accuracy. The extension of the discharge plate along the second direction and the location of the supporting unit on both sides of the discharge plate facilitates operator control of the discharge direction and speed, making it easier to subsequently dump sludge materials.

[0014] In other embodiments, a connecting rib is also provided between the corner structure and the support structure. When the loading box is subjected to a large weight or external impact, the connecting rib can effectively disperse stress, enhance the connection strength between the corner structure and the support structure, and improve the stability and reliability of the entire loading box.

[0015] The second aspect of this utility model provides a conveying structure for ceramsite loading boxes, including a first support frame, on which first telescopic devices distributed along a first direction are respectively arranged on two opposite sides; a second support frame, nested inside the first support frame, with both sides of the second support frame connected to the telescopic devices, and multiple ceramsite loading boxes arranged in a stacked manner within the second support frame; and two swing arm structures distributed on both sides of the second support frame, each swing arm structure including a swing arm, one end of which is hinged to the second support frame, and a second telescopic device extending and retracting along a second direction is arranged on the second support frame, the second telescopic device being connected to the other end of the swing arm, and a limiting block corresponding to the shape of the support unit being connected to the other end of the swing arm. This conveying structure, through reasonable layout and design, achieves automated, one-by-one conveying of the loading boxes, meeting the demands of modern production for automation and efficiency, improving production efficiency, reducing manual intervention, and lowering production costs.

[0016] In other embodiments, the first support frame includes a plurality of first columns, each with a crossbar for fixing a first telescopic device. The plurality of first columns provide sufficient support to ensure that the first support frame does not deform when bearing the weight of the loading box and the telescopic device; the crossbar not only fixes the first telescopic device but also enhances the overall structural strength of the first support frame; the first telescopic devices are distributed along a first direction, and the height of the second support frame can be precisely adjusted according to production needs to realize the sequential conveying of the loading boxes.

[0024] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Example 1 like Figures 4-6 As shown, this embodiment discloses a ceramsite loading box, including a box body 10, and corner-wrapping structures 140 and support components 150 disposed on the box body 10, realizing the holding of silt ceramsite and facilitating subsequent steam curing. Silt ceramsite, as a new type of building material, requires multiple stages such as molding and curing during its production. This loading box not only effectively holds the ceramsite, preventing it from scattering during transportation and storage, but its unique structural design also provides convenient conditions for subsequent steam curing, helping to improve the efficiency and quality of the entire production process.

[0026] Specifically, the box 10 in this embodiment includes a frame structure 110 and a plate structure 120. The plate structure 120 covers the circumferential side walls and bottom wall of the frame structure 110, and a discharge plate 130, inclined to the frame structure 110 and extending outward, is provided on one of the circumferential side walls of the frame structure 110. The frame structure 110, as the skeleton of the box 10, provides stable support for the entire loading box, ensuring that it will not deform or be damaged when carrying ceramsite. The plate structure 120 plays a role in sealing and protecting, covering the circumferential side walls and bottom wall of the frame structure 110 to prevent ceramsite leakage. The design of the discharge plate 130, inclined to the frame structure 110 and extending outward, makes the pouring of ceramsite smoother, avoiding the accumulation and blockage of ceramsite at the discharge port, and improving the discharge efficiency.

[0027] In this embodiment, four corner-covering structures 140 are connected to the corners of one end face of the frame structure 110 in the first direction. Each corner-covering structure 140 includes two connecting pieces 141 extending along the first direction and arranged in an L-shape. The corner-covering structures 140 can also enhance the overall stability of the box 10 to a certain extent, making the loading boxes safer and more reliable when stacked.

[0028] The support assembly 150 in this embodiment includes two sets of support structures 151 connected to both sides of the box 10 and arranged opposite each other. Each set of support structures 151 has four support units 152, and the multiple support units 152 are distributed in a matrix at the four corners of the side of the box 10. The two sets of opposite support structures 151, through the matrix distribution of the four support units 152 at the four corners of the side of the box 10, form a stable support system, which facilitates subsequent clamping and conveying, as well as subsequent clamping and tilting of the box 10. This distribution can evenly distribute the weight borne by the box 10, avoiding excessive local stress that could cause deformation of the box 10. At the same time, the presence of the support units 152 also facilitates the stacking of the filling boxes during transportation and storage, allowing multiple filling boxes to be stably stacked together, saving space.

[0029] In this embodiment, the plate structure 120 includes a perforated plate 121, which is connected to three side walls of the frame structure 110 circumferentially, excluding the side of the discharge plate 130. The perforated side plates facilitate the curing of sludge ceramsite, as the sludge ceramsite needs to be steam-cured in a curing chamber later, and the perforated design improves the efficiency of steam curing. In the production process of sludge ceramsite, the curing stage is crucial, directly affecting the quality and performance of the ceramsite. Traditional loading boxes typically use closed side plates, making it difficult for external moisture to enter the ceramsite during curing, resulting in longer curing times and lower efficiency. The perforated plate 121 in this embodiment allows air to circulate freely inside the loading box, accelerating the curing of the ceramsite strength. Simultaneously, the perforated structure allows hot air in the curing chamber to better contact the ceramsite, improving heat transfer efficiency and significantly shortening the curing time.

[0030] In this embodiment, for ease of description, a first direction, a second direction, and a third direction are introduced, wherein the first direction is the height direction, and the second direction and the third direction are two perpendicular directions of the horizontal plane.

[0031] In this embodiment, a support foot 160 is also included, which is connected to the bottom wall of the container 10. The support foot 160 also keeps the container a certain distance from the ground, preventing ground moisture from affecting the ceramsite inside. Furthermore, the support foot 160 facilitates the movement and handling of the container; operators can easily lift and transport it using forklifts or other equipment, improving work efficiency.

[0032] In this embodiment, the ends of the two connecting pieces 141 furthest from the frame structure 110 are folded outwards horizontally. This facilitates the insertion of the support legs 160 into the corner-covering structure 140 for stacking. During stacking of the loading bins, the support legs 160 need to be accurately placed into the corner-covering structure 140 to ensure stacking stability. The horizontal outward folding of the connecting pieces 141 furthest from the frame structure 110 forms a guide groove, making it easier for the support legs 160 to enter the corner-covering structure 140, reducing the operational difficulty and time during stacking. Simultaneously, this design ensures a tight fit between the support legs 160 and the corner-covering structure 140, preventing loosening or displacement during stacking, thus improving the safety and reliability of stacking. In actual production, this design can significantly improve warehouse utilization and reduce space waste.

[0033] In this embodiment, the projection of the support unit 152 in the second direction is L-shaped, and the discharge plate 130 extends outward along the second direction. This facilitates subsequent clamping, and since the support unit 152 is located on both sides of the discharge plate 130, it facilitates the subsequent dumping of sludge material. The L-shaped projection design of the support unit 152 in the second direction facilitates subsequent clamping. On automated production lines, clamping equipment is typically used to handle and operate the loading box. The L-shaped support unit 152 can better adapt to the clamping fixtures of the clamping equipment, improving the stability and accuracy of clamping. Furthermore, the design of the discharge plate 130 extending outward along the second direction and the support unit 152 being located on both sides of the discharge plate 130 allows operators to more easily control the discharge direction and speed when dumping sludge material.

[0034] In this embodiment, a connecting rib 170 is also provided between the corner structure 140 and the support structure 151 to improve overall strength. When the loading box is subjected to a large weight or external impact, the connection between the corner structure 140 and the support structure 151 is prone to becoming a stress concentration point, leading to loosening or damage. The connecting rib 170 can effectively disperse stress, enhance the connection strength between the corner structure 140 and the support structure 151, and improve the stability and reliability of the entire loading box.

[0035] Example 2 like Figures 1-3As shown, this embodiment discloses a conveying structure for ceramsite loading boxes, enabling the individual conveying of the ceramsite loading boxes from Embodiment 1. The structure includes a first support frame 20 and a second support frame 30. This ceramsite loading box conveying structure is designed to meet the demands for automation and efficiency in modern production. In the ceramsite production process, the conveying of the loading boxes is a crucial step. Traditional conveying methods are often inefficient and struggle to achieve precise individual conveying. The conveying structure in this embodiment, through its rational layout and design, enables automated individual conveying of the loading boxes, significantly improving production efficiency, reducing manual intervention, and lowering production costs.

[0036] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first support frame 20 includes multiple first columns 210, each with a crossbar 220 for fixing a first telescopic device 230. First telescopic devices 230 distributed along a first direction are respectively arranged on two opposite sides of the first support frame 20. As the foundation of the entire conveying structure, the stability of the first support frame 20 is crucial. The multiple first columns 210 provide sufficient support force to ensure that the first support frame 20 does not deform when bearing the weight of the loading box and the telescopic device. The crossbar 220 not only fixes the first telescopic device 230 but also enhances the overall structural strength of the first support frame 20. The first telescopic devices 230 are distributed along the first direction, and their working principle is to control the lifting and lowering of the second support frame 30 through telescopic movement. In practical applications, the first telescopic devices 230 can precisely adjust the height of the second support frame 30 according to production needs, thereby realizing the sequential conveying of the loading boxes.

[0037] In this embodiment, the second support frame 30 is nested inside the first support frame 20, and both sides of the second support frame 30 are connected to the first telescopic device 230. Multiple ceramsite loading boxes are stacked within the second support frame 30. This nested design makes the entire conveying structure more compact and saves space. Its connection to the first telescopic device 230 ensures that the second support frame 30 can stably rise and fall under the action of the first telescopic device 230. The stacking of multiple ceramsite loading boxes within the second support frame 30 fully utilizes space and increases warehouse storage capacity. Simultaneously, the stacking method facilitates centralized management and conveying of the loading boxes, reducing confusion and errors during the conveying process. In actual operation, operators can stack the corresponding number of loading boxes within the second support frame 30 according to the production plan, and then convey them one by one through the conveying structure, improving production efficiency.

[0038] Two swing arm structures 300 are distributed on both sides of the second support frame 30. Each swing arm structure 300 includes a swing arm 310, one end of which is hinged to the second support frame 30. A second telescopic device 320, which extends and retracts in a second direction, is provided on the second support frame 30. The second telescopic device 320 is connected to the other end of the swing arm 310, and a limiting block 330, corresponding to the shape of the support unit 152, is connected to the other end of the swing arm 310. The swing arm structures 300 can achieve precise support for the loading box. The two swing arm structures 300 are distributed on both sides of the second support frame 30, forming a symmetrical support system, ensuring the stability of the loading box during transportation. The hinged connection of one end of the swing arm 310 to the second support frame 30 allows the swing arm 310 to rotate around the hinge point, thereby realizing the telescopic movement of the limiting block 330. The telescopic device 320 extends and retracts in the second direction, providing power for the movement of the swing arm 310. The design of the limiting block 330, corresponding to the shape of the supporting unit 152, allows the limiting block 330 to accurately engage with the supporting unit 152 on the loading box, achieving stable support for the loading box. In actual operation, when the loading box needs to be transported, the second telescopic device 320 extends, driving the swing arm 310 to rotate, bringing the limiting block 330 closer to the supporting unit 152 of the loading box. When the limiting block 330 and the supporting unit 152 are in close contact, the loading box is supported. Then, the first telescopic device 230 extends and retracts along the first direction, moving the stacked loading boxes downwards. After the loading box contacts the contact surface, the second telescopic device 320 retracts, and the limiting block 330 moves away from the supporting unit 152. Immediately, the first telescopic device 230 moves upwards. After reaching the height of one loading box, the second telescopic device 320 extends again, and the limiting block 330 supports the loading box again, moving together with the first telescopic device 230. This cycle repeats, achieving the transport of loading boxes one by one.

[0039] In terms of specific working principle, the second telescopic device 320 drives the swing arm 310 to extend and retract towards the ceramsite loading box. At this time, the limiting block 330 cooperates with the support component 150 on the ceramsite loading box to support it. Then, the first telescopic device 230 extends and retracts along the first direction, causing the stacked ceramsite loading boxes to move downwards. After the ceramsite loading box contacts the contact surface, the second telescopic device 320 retracts, and then the first telescopic device 230 moves upwards. After reaching the height of one ceramsite loading box, the second telescopic device 320 extends to support the ceramsite loading box and moves together with the first telescopic device 230, realizing the one-by-one conveying of ceramsite loading boxes. By precisely controlling the extension distance and time of the telescopic device, the automated one-by-one conveying of loading boxes is achieved. In actual production, this conveying structure can be seamlessly connected with other equipment on the production line to achieve continuous and automated production.
