Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydraulic balers, and in particular to a multifunctional hydraulic baler for scrap metal. Background Technology
[0002] Hydraulic balers for scrap metal are key equipment in the field of scrap metal recycling and processing. Through hydraulic drive, they generate strong pressure to compress scattered and irregular scrap metal (such as scrap steel, scrap aluminum, scrap copper, etc.) into regular blocks. This reduces the storage space occupied by scrap metal and also reduces losses and costs during transportation, facilitating subsequent smelting and reuse. They are widely used in scrap recycling stations, metallurgical plants, and machinery processing enterprises.
[0003] In practical applications, after a traditional hydraulic baler completes the extrusion of scrap metal into blocks, the formed metal blocks need to be removed from the equipment. Because the extruded metal blocks are dense and heavy, significant friction occurs between the metal blocks and the support base of the hydraulic baler during removal. This friction directly increases the resistance to removal, prolonging the cycle of a single baling operation and severely impacting the overall efficiency of metal block removal. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a multifunctional hydraulic baler for waste metal, which can effectively solve the problems in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A multifunctional hydraulic baler for scrap metal includes a hydraulic baler body. A support base is fixedly installed on the lower inner wall of the hydraulic baler body. A lifting auxiliary feeding component is fixedly installed inside the support base. The lifting auxiliary feeding component consists of a movable base plate, hydraulic cylinders, U-shaped mounting brackets, and support rollers. Several hydraulic cylinders are symmetrically fixedly installed at the lower end of the movable base plate. Several U-shaped mounting brackets are symmetrically fixedly installed at the upper end of the movable base plate. Several support rollers are rotatably installed inside several U-shaped mounting brackets.
[0006] Preferably, a protective door is installed at the lower front end of the main body of the hydraulic baler, and a hydraulic component is fixedly installed on the upper part of the main body of the hydraulic baler.
[0007] Preferably, the support base has an installation receiving groove that runs through the support base from front to back, and the upper end of the support base has a plurality of symmetrical installation through slots that are connected to the installation receiving groove.
[0008] Preferably, the movable base plate on the lifting auxiliary unloading assembly is movably mounted in the mounting and receiving slot opened on the support base.
[0009] Preferably, the hydraulic cylinder on the lifting auxiliary unloading assembly is fixedly installed on the lower inner wall of the installation and receiving channel, and the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the movable base plate by bolts.
[0010] Preferably, the U-shaped mounting bracket and the support roller on the lifting auxiliary unloading assembly are movably mounted in the mounting slot opened at the upper end of the support base.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: By incorporating a lifting auxiliary feeding assembly consisting of a movable base plate, a hydraulic cylinder, a U-shaped mounting bracket, and a support roller within the support base, the hydraulic baler gains the ability to assist in removing metal blocks. The hydraulic cylinder, via the movable base plate and the U-shaped mounting bracket, lifts the support roller upwards, causing it to push the compressed metal block upwards and detach it from the support base. When removing the metal block, the support roller rotates due to friction with the block, further assisting in removal. This reduces frictional resistance during removal, effectively lowering the difficulty of removing the metal block, shortening the cycle of a single baling operation, and improving overall work efficiency. It also reduces wear between the metal block and the support base, extending the equipment's lifespan. Furthermore, the hydraulic cylinder can completely retract the support roller into the support base via the movable base plate and the U-shaped mounting bracket, ensuring that the presence of the lifting auxiliary feeding assembly does not affect the normal compression and baling of scrap metal by the hydraulic baler.

[0014] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0015] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, a multi-functional hydraulic baler for scrap metal includes a hydraulic baler body 1. A support base 2 is fixedly installed on the lower inner wall of the hydraulic baler body 1. A lifting auxiliary unloading assembly 3 is fixedly installed inside the support base 2. The lifting auxiliary unloading assembly 3 consists of a movable base plate 8, hydraulic cylinders 9, U-shaped mounting brackets 10, and support rollers 11. Several hydraulic cylinders 9 are symmetrically fixedly installed at the lower end of the movable base plate 8. Several U-shaped mounting brackets 10 are symmetrically fixedly installed at the upper end of the movable base plate 8. Several support rollers 11 are rotatably installed inside several U-shaped mounting brackets 10. By setting the lifting auxiliary unloading assembly 3, composed of the movable base plate 8, hydraulic cylinders 9, U-shaped mounting brackets 10, and support rollers 11, inside the support base 2, the hydraulic baler has the function of assisting in the removal of metal blocks. The hydraulic cylinder 9, through the movable base plate 8 and the U-shaped mounting bracket 10, can lift the support roller 11 upwards, thereby pushing the compressed metal block upwards and detaching it from the support base 2. When the metal block is removed, the support roller 11 will rotate due to friction with the metal block, thus assisting in the removal of the metal block. This reduces the frictional resistance during removal, effectively lowers the difficulty of removing the metal block, shortens the cycle of a single baling operation, and improves the overall operating efficiency. It also reduces wear between the metal block and the support base 2, extending the service life of the equipment. Furthermore, the hydraulic cylinder 9 can completely retract the support roller 11 into the support base 2 through the movable base plate 8 and the U-shaped mounting bracket 10, so the presence of the lifting auxiliary feeding component 3 will not affect the normal compression and baling of scrap metal by the hydraulic baler.
[0016] Specifically, a protective door 4 is installed at the lower front end of the hydraulic baler body 1, and a hydraulic assembly 5 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the hydraulic baler body 1. An installation receiving groove 6 is provided on the support base 2, passing through the support base 2 from front to back. Several installation through slots 7 are symmetrically provided on the upper end of the support base 2, and the installation through slots 7 and the installation receiving groove 6 are interconnected. The movable base plate 8 on the lifting auxiliary feeding assembly 3 is movably installed in the installation receiving groove 6 on the support base 2. The hydraulic cylinder 9 on the lifting auxiliary feeding assembly 3 is fixedly installed... The hydraulic cylinder 9 is fixedly installed on the lower inner wall of the mounting and receiving slot 6. The piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 9 is fixedly connected to the movable base plate 8 by bolts. The U-shaped mounting bracket 10 and the support roller 11 on the lifting auxiliary feeding assembly 3 are installed vertically in the mounting slot 7 opened at the upper end of the support base 2. When using this hydraulic baler to compress and bale scrap metal, first close the protective door 4, and then put the scrap metal into the main body 1 of the hydraulic baler from above the protective door 4. At this time, the support roller 11 is completely retracted into the mounting slot 7 opened on the support base 2. Then start the hydraulic... Component 5, the hydraulic component 5 drives the relevant mechanism to compress and bale the scrap metal inside the main body 1 of the hydraulic baler. After the scrap metal is compressed into regular metal blocks, the relevant mechanism driven by the hydraulic component 5 is reset upwards, and then the protective door 4 is opened. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 9 in the lifting auxiliary unloading component 3 is started. At this time, the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 9 pushes the movable base plate 8 to move upwards in the mounting and receiving slot 6. The movable base plate 8 drives the upper U-shaped mounting bracket 10 and the support roller 11 to extend upwards along the mounting through slot 7. Then the support roller 11 will... The metal block is brought into contact with the support base 2 and pushed upwards to detach it from the support base 2. Then, the operator uses tools to move the metal block out of the hydraulic baler body 1. At this time, the metal block rubs against the support roller 11 and drives the support roller 11 to rotate within the U-shaped mounting bracket 10. With the assistance of the support roller 11, the metal block is successfully removed. After removal, the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 9 is controlled to retract, and the movable base plate 8 drives the U-shaped mounting bracket 10 and the support roller 11 to fall back and retract completely into the mounting slot 7, so that the next compression and baling operation can be carried out.
[0017] It should be noted that several hydraulic cylinders 9 are controlled by the same hydraulic station. This hydraulic station is connected to each hydraulic cylinder 9 through a unified hydraulic pipeline, which can synchronously output hydraulic oil with stable pressure and flow. This ensures that the piston rods of all hydraulic cylinders 9 maintain consistent movement during extension and retraction, avoiding tilting of the movable base plate 8 due to lag or stroke deviation of a single hydraulic cylinder 9. This ensures that the U-shaped mounting bracket 10 and the support roller 11 can move up and down smoothly and synchronously. This not only ensures that the lifting force of the support roller 11 on the metal block is evenly distributed, preventing the metal block from shifting or tipping during lifting, but also avoids wear or failure of internal components due to uneven force, ensuring the stability and reliability of the lifting auxiliary unloading component 3. The working principle of the hydraulic baler for compressing and baling scrap metal is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.
[0018] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
