(54) CONTAINER FOR BULK CARGOES

one

The invention relates to the transport of goods and relates to the design of containers intended for the accumulation, transportation and automatic unloading of bulk cargoes (e.g., gravel, sand, etc.).

A container for bulk cargo is known, comprising a housing with rotatable lower flaps associated with a locking device and angled to each other, supports of the housing 1.

However, in a known container, the locking device of the valves is complicated in design and unreliable in operation.

The purpose of the invention is to increase efficiency.

This goal is achieved by the fact that the container is equipped with adjustable tipping rods connecting the sash with the housing pivotally fixed in the upper part of the latter in grooves that are made in its end walls, and the locking device is designed as a two-sided flap located in the lower part a lever with a latch on the end interacting with a wedge fixed on the other leaf.

In order to adjust the shutter adjoining in the closed state, it is desirable to supply the container with an adjusting screw mechanism tg located in the indicated grooves of the end walls.

For the purpose of manual remote opening of the valves, it is preferable to provide the container with guide rollers with a cable for engagement with the locking device lever.

FIG. 1 shows the container, a general view, in axonometric view; in fig. 2 - a general view of a container with open doors;

 in fig. 3 - shut-off device of the valves; in fig. 4 - view of the container from the end; in fig. 5 is a side view adjustment control mechanism; in fig. 6 - the same longitudinal section.

20 The container includes a housing 1 with rotary lower flaps 2. angled and attached to an attendant ct 3, connecting the doors 2 with the housing 1. / Rotating t; and: rotate

in fastening assemblies 4 in such a way that the axes of rotation tg can be displaced with respect to the vertical axis of the center of gravity of the valves 2 in either direction, thereby increasing or decreasing the force acting on the flaps when opening them.

The locking device of the valves 2 is made in the form located in the lower part of one of the valves of the two shoulders of the lever 5 with the latch 6 on the end. The lever 5 has a folding arm 7 and is placed in the guide bracket 8. The shoulder 7 in the folded state covers the lower part of the guide bracket 8, is fixed on it, thereby preventing the flaps from self-opening. On the other shutter is fixed wedge 9.

On the outside of the valves 2 attached L-shaped supports 10.

Loops 11 are attached to the body 1 at the corners in the upper part to grip hooks on the lifting mechanism when the container is moved and unloaded. In the end walls of the housing 1 there are grooves 12 in which the axles 13 are fixed, on the axles the rotary rods 3 are rotatably mounted. Through the gaskets 14 of the nuts 15 and 16, the attachment position of the axes 13 can be changed, thereby adjusting the fit of the flaps 2 to housing 1 in the closed state.

On the side walls of the housing 1, rollers 17 with a cable 18 are fixed to cooperate with the lever 5 of the locking device during manual remote opening of the container doors.

The container works as follows.

After loading the container with a bulk load, it is captured by a lifting mechanism, lifted to a certain height and moved to the place of unloading. When unloading, the container is lowered by a lifting mechanism and guided to the receiving container so that the folding arm 7 of the lever 5 of the shutter 2 of the valves 2 rests on the side of the receiving container. Under the action of the receiving vessel side, the lever 5 rotates and disengages the latch 6, after which both flaps 2 under the action of the load are moved apart, and the cargo is poured out, releasing the container. In the empty container, the flaps 2 converge under their own weight, and the latch 6 engages them. If, for any reason, the latch 6 did not adhere the doors, then when the container is installed on the platform, the L-shaped supports 10, under the weight of the container, reduce the doors 2 to the clutch 6. These same supports ensure the stability of the container. Further, the unloading process is repeated.

If it is necessary to unload the container in a small container or on an open area, the operator attaches the lead to the cable 18 and removes the latch 6 from engagement with the wedge 9 and unloads it.

In the case of unloading of a thrashing load and easily-damaged product, the container can be provided with slings connected to the casement flaps and a lifting mechanism, with the possibility of first spreading the container to the sides and then smoothly lifting the case. When unloading low-bulk and plastic loads, the container doors can be equipped with live rolls with the possibility of closing them with plates in case of unloading bulk cargo.

The use of a container of the proposed design allows reducing the costs of its manufacture and use, to ensure reliable operation of the container in industry and agriculture.

The container can be used for re-collection of loose, piece, easily damaged cargo. In agriculture, it can be used as a storage bunker.
