Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bulk cargo loading and unloading machinery and equipment at the wharf front, and in particular to a chain bucket device for a chain bucket unloader. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of port bulk cargo handling technology, chain bucket unloading equipment has emerged. This technology has the characteristics of continuous operation and large conveying capacity, and is therefore widely used in the bulk cargo unloading process at the dock front, which in turn drives the continuous demand for optimization of the working performance of chain bucket equipment.

[0003] In related technologies, the aforementioned chain bucket unloading method and related devices suffer from uneven force distribution during operation, especially when passing through corner sections. This can easily lead to increased local wear and affect the service life of the equipment and loading and unloading efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] In response to the shortcomings of the existing production technology, the applicant provides a chain bucket device for a chain bucket unloader, thereby ensuring that the chain bucket device is subjected to more uniform force when moving through corners, and avoiding the problem of wear caused by uneven force.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows: A chain bucket device for a chain bucket unloader includes a chain and a chain bucket body, wherein the chain is connected to the chain bucket body via a connecting assembly; The connection assembly includes a first connection plate and a second connection plate; The first connecting plate includes a first connecting part, a docking part, and a second connecting part. The first connecting part is connected to the chain, the docking part is fixedly connected to the chain bucket body, and the second connecting part is provided with a first connecting hole. The second connecting plate includes a third connecting part and an extension part, the third connecting part being connected to the chain, and the extension part having a second connecting hole; The second connecting portion and the extension portion are hinged through the first connecting hole and the second connecting hole.

[0006] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: In one embodiment, a first connecting tube is fixed to the first connecting part, and the first connecting tube is connected to the chain via a hinge.

[0007] In one embodiment, a second connecting tube is fixed to the third connecting part, and the second connecting tube is connected to the chain via a hinge.

[0008] In one embodiment, the docking part is provided with a plurality of docking holes, through which it is detachably connected to the chain bucket body.

[0009] In one embodiment, the detachable connection is a bolted connection.

[0010] In one embodiment, the first connecting part, the docking part, and the second connecting part are an integral structure.

[0011] In one embodiment, there are two extensions, symmetrically arranged on the top of the third connecting portion along the thickness direction, forming a connecting area between the two extensions to accommodate the second connecting portion.

[0012] In one embodiment, the second connecting portion is disposed within the connecting area, and the first connecting hole is aligned with the second connecting hole.

[0013] In one embodiment, the hinge is achieved by a hinge shaft passing through the first connection hole and the second connection hole.

[0014] In one embodiment, the docking portion is configured to extend in the horizontal direction.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model has a compact structure. By setting a first connecting plate and a second connecting plate, it makes the chain bucket body and the chain more flexible in space. When the chain bucket device runs to the corner of the drive wheel or guide wheel, it can disperse the stress that may have been concentrated at a certain connection point, so that the chain bucket device is subjected to more uniform and smooth force when passing the corner. This fundamentally avoids the problem of severe local wear caused by uneven force, and greatly extends the service life of the chain bucket and the chain.

[0016] This utility model also has the following advantages: The first connecting plate of this utility model integrates the chain connection part, the fixed chain bucket part and the hinged part into an integrated structure. The integrated structure itself has higher structural strength and rigidity, and can withstand heavy loads in bulk cargo loading and unloading, further ensuring the durability of the equipment under harsh working conditions.

[0017] The main body of the chain bucket of this utility model is connected to the docking part by bolts, and the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate are connected by a hinge shaft, which makes it easy to disassemble, replace or maintain a single chain bucket without disassembling the entire chain. When it is necessary to replace worn chain buckets or connecting parts, it can be done quickly, which significantly reduces equipment maintenance downtime, maintenance costs and workload.

[0034] Furthermore, the accompanying drawings are not drawn to a 1:1 scale, and the relative dimensions of the components are shown in the drawings only as examples and not necessarily to actual scale.

[0035] like Figures 1-10 The accompanying drawing shows a schematic diagram of the structure of a chain bucket device for a chain bucket unloader according to an embodiment of the present invention; for ease of description, the drawing only shows the structure related to the embodiment of the present invention.

[0036] This application provides a chain bucket device for a chain bucket unloader, including a chain bucket body 100, a chain 200, and a connecting assembly 300.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the chain 200 is connected to the chain bucket body 100 through the connecting component 300; the connecting component 300 includes a first connecting plate 310 and a second connecting plate 320, which work together to realize the flexible connection between the chain 200 and the chain bucket body 100.

[0038] Please combine Figures 7 to 8The first connecting plate 310 is an integral component, and three areas are defined on the first connecting plate 310: the first connecting part 311, the mating part 312, and the second connecting part 313; The first connecting part 311 is used to connect with the chain 200, and a first connecting round tube 314 is fixedly welded to this part; The first connecting tube 314 is hinged to the chain 200 by passing through its cavity with a hinge shaft; The mating portion 312 extends generally horizontally from one side of the first connecting portion 311, and has a plurality of mating holes 315 thereon; for example Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the chain bucket body 100 is detachably fixed to the docking part 312 by fasteners (preferably bolts) passing through these docking holes 315, which facilitates the individual installation and replacement of the chain bucket body 100. The second connecting part 313 is located on the other side of the docking part 312, and a first connecting hole 316 is provided thereon; Furthermore, the first connecting part 311, the docking part 312, and the second connecting part 313 are preferably made by forging or integral forming of steel plate. The integrated structure has higher structural strength and rigidity, can optimize the force transmission path, and can withstand heavy loads in bulk cargo loading and unloading operations.

[0039] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the specific structure of the second connecting plate 320 includes a third connecting part 321, on which a second connecting round tube 322 is fixedly welded.

[0040] It is understandable that, similar to the first connecting tube 314, the second connecting tube 322 is also hinged to the chain 200 via a hinge shaft, thereby connecting the second connecting plate 320 to the chain 200.

[0041] Furthermore, at the top of the third connecting portion 321, two extension portions 324 are integrally formed symmetrically along its thickness direction, forming a connecting area between the two extension portions 324, and each extension portion 324 is provided with a second connecting hole 323.

[0042] The assembly relationship between the first connecting plate 310 and the second connecting plate 320 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown.

[0043] During assembly, the second connecting portion 313 of the first connecting plate 310 is embedded in the connecting area formed by the two extensions 324 of the second connecting plate 320; At this time, the first connecting hole 316 on the second connecting part 313 is aligned with the second connecting hole 323 on the two extensions 324; The hinged connection between the first connecting plate 310 and the second connecting plate 320 is achieved by passing a hinge shaft sequentially through the second connecting hole 323 on one extension 324, the first connecting hole 316 on the second connecting portion 313, and the second connecting hole 323 on another extension 324.

[0044] This invention constructs a multi-degree-of-freedom connection component through the aforementioned structure. When the chain bucket device reaches a corner and the direction of the chain 200 changes, the first connecting plate 310 and the second connecting plate 320 can rotate relative to each other around the hinge axis. Simultaneously, the first connecting plate 310 and the second connecting plate 320 can each rotate relative to the chain 200 around the hinge axis via their connecting tubes. This multi-stage hinge design allows the chain bucket body 100 to make certain adaptive adjustments in spatial posture, thereby effectively dispersing the stress that might otherwise be concentrated at a single rigid connection point. This greatly improves the uniformity of force distribution at corners, significantly reduces localized wear, and extends the equipment's service life. Furthermore, the modular structure of the connection component 300 also makes installation, commissioning, and subsequent maintenance more convenient.

[0045] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0046] The embodiments described above merely illustrate the implementation of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
