FIELD

The present application relates to the technical field of the vehicle engineering, in particular to a bottom door of a carriage. Furthermore, the present application further relates to a carriage.

BACKGROUND

A carriage which can automatically discharge cargos is generally used in the railway transportation. A bottom of the carriage is provided with a bottom door, and cargos are discharged under the action of gravity after the bottom door is opened.

Reference is made to FIGS. 1 to 2. FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing the structure of a typical bottom door of a carriage, and FIG. 2 is a side view of the bottom door shown in FIG. 1.

The bottom door at a bottom of the carriage includes multiple sets of door bodies 1′, and both the opening and closing of the multiple sets of the door bodies 1 are controlled by a driving mechanism. The driving mechanism includes an air cylinder 2′, a main shaft 3′ and a driving rod 4′. As shown in FIG. 1, the main shaft 3′ is arranged in the length direction of the carriage, a telescoping end of the air cylinder 2′ drives the main shaft 3′ to rotate by a rocker arm 5′, and multiple sets of driving rods 4′ are distributed in the length direction of the main shaft 3′. Each set of driving rod 4′ controls one set of door bodies 1′, and the multiple sets of door bodies 1 can be controlled to be opened or closed at the same time by the main shaft 3′ when the main shaft 3′ rotates. As shown in FIG. 2, the driving mechanism is located at a bottom of the door body 1′, the driving rod 4′ includes a short rod 41′ and connecting rods 42′, the main shaft 3′ is located at the middle of the short rod 41′, two ends of the short rod 41′ are respectively articulated to the connecting rods 42′ and control the door body 1′ by the connecting rods 42′, and the connecting rods 42′ are driven by the short rod 41′ to swing to open or close the door body 1′ when the short rod 41′ rotates.

FIG. 2 shows the status of the driving rod 4′ when the door bodies 1′ are closed. A right end of the short rod 41′ deflects upward and anticlockwise by 3 degrees to 4 degrees with respect to a horizontal position of the main shaft 3′, and a moment generated by the deflection of the short rod 41′ can act on the door bodies 1′ to prevent the door bodies 1′ from being opened.

During the extending process of the telescoping end of the air cylinder 2′, the main shaft 3′ rotates clockwise and drives the short rod 41′. During the process that the main shaft 3′ rotates by 3 degrees to 4 degrees and drives the short rod 41′ to rotate over the horizontal position, a dead point is passed and a resistance moment is overcame, and thus the door bodies are opened.

Before the door body 1′ is opened, a moment, generated by the deflection of the short rod 41′ to prevent the door body 1′ from being opened, is a resistance moment when the door body 1′ is opened. During the process of opening the door body 1′, before the short rod 41′ rotates to the horizontal position, the main shaft 3′ requires the air cylinder 2′ to provide an action force to overcome the resistance moment.

The air cylinder 2′ is required to provide a large action force when one set of door body 1′ is opened. In a case that the multiple sets of the door bodies 1′ of the bottom door are opened at the same time, the main shaft 3′ needs to overcome the resistance moments of the multiple sets of the door bodies 1′ at the same time. Therefore, the air cylinder 2′ is required to provide a very large action force, which is not easy to realize, and it is generally required to employ an air cylinder having a large diameter or multiple air cylinders to provide the action force. Moreover, because the action force is large and the impact force is also large during the opening process, the driving mechanism is apt to be broken and the reliability of the bottom door is affected.

Therefore, an urgent technical issue to be solved by the person skilled in the art is to decrease the required action force for opening the bottom door of the carriage.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

For the person skilled in the art to better understand the solutions of the present application, the present application is further described in detail in conjunction with drawings and embodiments.

Reference is made to FIGS. 3 to 5. FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing a partial structure of a bottom door of a carriage according to the present application, FIG. 4 is a side view of the bottom door shown in FIG. 3, and FIG. 5 is a schematic view of FIG. 4 viewed in direction A, wherein, a door body is not showed in FIG. 3.

In a specific embodiment, a bottom door of a carriage is provided according to the present application, which includes a telescoping cylinder 2 and at least two sets of door bodies 1. Each set of door bodies 1 is provided with one set of a driving mechanism, the driving mechanism includes a rotating shaft 3 and a driving rod 4. The rotating shaft 3 is connected with the door body 1 by the driving rod 4, thus the door body 1 is driven to rotate when the rotating shaft 3 rotates. Each rotating shaft 3 is driven to rotate by the telescoping cylinder 2, and at least two rotating shafts 3 can be driven to rotate successively by the telescoping cylinder 2.

The multiple sets of the door bodies 1 of the bottom door are respectively controlled by respective driving mechanisms and are distributed in the length direction of the carriage, and the rotating shaft 3 of each driving mechanism is arranged in the length direction of the carriage and is located under a center line of each door body 1. The rotating shaft 3 of each set of driving mechanisms rotates to control the door body 1 to rotate through the driving rod 4, to realize the opening or closing of the door body 1. At the same time, a linkage can be formed between the driving mechanisms, and the opening and closing of the multiple sets of door bodies 1 can be controlled by one telescoping cylinder 2.

Each set of door body 1 of the bottom door is respectively controlled by the respective driving mechanism, and each rotating shaft 3 can be driven to rotate successively by the telescoping cylinder 2. After one rotating shaft 3 rotates, a corresponding door body 1 is opened, and then the remaining rotating shafts 3 can rotate successively, to open each set of door body 1 corresponding to the rotating shafts 3 successively in a certain order. When the telescoping cylinder 2 drives one driving mechanism to act, the door body 1 corresponding to this driving mechanism is opened, and after the door body 1 overcomes the opening resistance and the driving mechanism does not require a thrust of the telescoping cylinder 2 anymore, the next driving mechanism acts and the next set of door body 1 is opened in a linked way. If there are multiple sets of door bodies 1, they can be successively opened according to this principle.

The bottom door employs the telescoping cylinder 2 to open the multiples sets of door bodies 1 successively. During the opening process, the telescoping cylinder 2 only needs to provide an acting force required for opening one set of door body 1 always. Compared with the conventional technology, the acting force required for opening the bottom door is small and the requirement for the acting force of the telescoping cylinder 2 is decreased, thus it is easy to be realized, the volume of the telescoping cylinder 2 is decreased, the space is saved and the dead weight is decreased. Furthermore, an impact force is also decreased during the opening process and the reliability of the whole bottom door is improved.

In an optional structure, an end portion of the rotating shaft 3 is provided with a rocker arm 5, one end of the rocker arm 5 is fixed at the end portion of the rotating shaft 3 and another end of the rocker arm 5 is provided with a pin hole 51. In two adjacent rocker arms 5 between the driving mechanisms, one of the two adjacent rocker arm 5 is a pre-action rocker arm 52 and the other one is a post-action rocker arm 53, and one of the two adjacent rocker arms 5 has a round pin hole and the other one has an oblong pin hole, and the two adjacent rocker arms 5 are connected by a pin shaft 6 inserted into the round pin hole and the oblong pin hole. A telescoping end is connected to the pre-action rocker arm 52 or the pin shaft 6. The driven pre-action rocker arm 52 or the driven pin shaft 6 drives a corresponding rotating shaft 3 to rotate by a predetermined angle, to move the pin shaft 6 from one end to another end with respect to the oblong pin hole and abut against an end portion of the oblong pin hole to drive an adjacent rotating shaft 3 to rotate, and thus a successive rotation is realized.

The telescoping end of the telescoping cylinder 2 is connected with the pre-action rocker arm 52 or the pin shaft 6. As shown in FIG. 4, during the telescoping process of the telescoping end, the telescoping cylinder 2 also rotates accordingly. If the telescoping end is connected with the pre-action rocker arm 52, the pre-action rocker arm 52 swings. If the telescoping end is connected with the pin shaft 6, the pin shaft 6 drives the pre-action rocker arm 52 to swing. The two connecting manners can both make the pre-action rocker arm 52 to swing and at the same time drive the corresponding rotating shaft 3 to rotate, and thus driving the corresponding door body 1 to rotate. In FIGS. 3 and 5, the telescoping end of the telescoping cylinder 2 is connected with the pin shaft 6.

In the two rocker arms 5, connected by the pin shaft 6, of two adjacent driving mechanisms, one of the two adjacent rocker arms 5 is the pre-action rocker arm 52, and the other one is the post-action rocker arm 53 which can swing later. Similarly, multiple sets of driving mechanisms are successively connected by the rocker arms 5, each post-rocker arm 53 successively swings later, and each driving mechanism successively acts later, to allow the corresponding set of door body 1 to successively act.

It should be noted that, the pre-action rocker arm 52 is distinguished from the post-rocker arm 53 by an action order of the rocker arm 5. For the same rocker arm 5 in different connecting manners, it is defined as the pre-action rocker arm 52 if it acts first and it is defined as the post-rocker arm 53 if it acts later.

When the bottom door is opened, the rocker arms 5 of the driving mechanisms successively swing and the corresponding sets of door bodies 1 are successively opened. When the bottom door is closed, the telescoping end of the telescoping cylinder 2 pulls the pre-action rocker arm 52 or drives the pin shaft 6 to pull the pre-action rocker arm 52, and at the same time the linked post-action rocker arm 53 is driven to act, thereby closing the multiples sets of door bodies 1 at the same time.

When the telescoping cylinder 2 drives the pre-action rocker arm 52 to swing by a predetermined angle, the door body 1 corresponding to the pre-action rocker arm 52 is opened. After overcoming the opening resistance, the driving mechanism does not need the thrust of the telescoping cylinder 2 anymore and the linked post-action rocker arm 53 swings to open the next set of door body 1. If there are multiple sets of door bodies 1, they can be successively opened according to this principle. During the opening process, the telescoping cylinder 2 only needs to provide the acting force required for opening one set of door body 1 always.

In another optional structure, the end portion of the rotating shaft 3 is provided with a disc. In two adjacent discs between the driving mechanisms, one disc has a protrusion and the other one has an arc groove, and the protrusion is configured to cooperate with the arc groove. The telescoping end of the telescoping cylinder 2 is connected with one disc and the driven disc drives a corresponding rotating shaft 3 to rotate by a predetermined angle. After the protrusion and the arc groove of the driven disc and the adjacent disc moves by a predetermined distance with respect to each other, the protrusion abuts against an end portion of the arc groove to drive an adjacent rotating shaft 3 to rotate, and thus realizing the successive rotation.

The rotating shafts 3 of two adjacent driving mechanisms are connected by the discs at end portions thereof. In the two cooperating discs, one disc is provided with the protrusion and the other one is provided with the arc groove, and the protrusion is configured to cooperate with the arc groove. In a case that the rotating shaft 3 having the protrusion rotates, the protrusion moves in the arc groove, and when the protrusion moves to the end portion of the arc groove, the rotating shaft 3 having the arc groove is driven to rotate. This structure can realize a successive action of the two adjacent driving mechanisms. The telescoping end can be connected to the disc having the protrusion or also can be connected to the disc having the arc groove.

In the above embodiments, the predetermined angle is greater than 3 degrees and less than 5 degrees.

The rotating shaft 3 is connected to the door body 1 by the driving rod 4 to control the door body 1. When the door body 1 is closed, the driving rod 4 can generate a moment for preventing the door body 1 from being opened. When the door body 1 is opened, the rotating shaft 3 can rotate by 3 degrees to 4 degrees to pass a dead point, thereby overcoming a resistance moment, and if the rotating shaft 3 continues to rotate, the driving rod 4 can generate a moment for opening the door body 1.

Furthermore, in the trigonometric function, if an angle is less than 5 degrees, a sine value of the angle is approximately equal to an angle value, that is, sin α=α, which means that a straight line can be approximately considered as an arc. For example, for the oblong pin hole at the end portion of the rocker arm 5 in the first optional structure, when the pre-action rocker arm 52 swings, an arc track of the pin shaft 6 can be approximately considered as a straight line movement in the oblong pin hole. Therefore, the predetermined angle ranges from 3 degrees to 5 degrees.

Of course, in a case that two long sides of the oblong pin hole are straight lines, the predetermined angle ranges from 3 degrees to 5 degrees. In a case that the two long sides of the oblong pin hole are arc lines, a maximum value of the predetermined angle can be equal to the value of a center angle that the arc line corresponds, for example, the arc groove in the second optional structure.

Furthermore, a specific range of the predetermined angle is defined according to a specific structure of the bottom door, and the range of the predetermined angle is not limited to the above ranges.

In the first optional structure, the telescoping cylinder 2 can be connected to the rocker arm 5 or also can be connected to the pin shaft 6. However, a structure that the telescoping cylinder 2 connected to the pin shaft 6 is preferable because this structure is easy to be realized, since it can be realized only by arranging a through hole at the telescoping end and inserting the pin shaft 6 in the through hole.

In a case that the telescoping end of the telescoping cylinder 2 is connected to the pin shaft 6, the rocker arm 5 having the round pin hole rotates first and the rocker arm 5 having the oblong pin hole rotates later, the pre-action rocker arm 52 is configured to have the round pin hole and the post-action rocker arm 53 is configured to have the oblong pin hole.

Reference is made to FIG. 6, which is a schematic view showing the structure of the bottom door of the carriage according to an embodiment of the present application.

The number of the door bodies 1 of the bottom door is generally determined according to the requirement of the length of the carriage. Specifically, in a case that the bottom door includes two sets of door bodies 1, the driving mechanism of each set of door body 1 includes one rocker arm 5 and two rocker arms 5 of the two sets of door bodies 1 are adjacent and connected by the pin shaft 6.

For the two rocker arms 5, one of the two rocker arms 5 is the pre-action rocker arm 52 having the round pin hole and the other one is the post-action rocker arm 53 having the oblong pin hole. The telescoping end of the telescoping cylinder 2 has the through hole and is sleeved on the pin shaft 6. When the telescoping end acts, the pre-action rocker arm 52 swings first, the post-action rocker arm 53 swings later, and the corresponding door bodies 1 are successively opened.

In another embodiment, in a case that the bottom door includes at least three sets of door bodies 1, two ends of the rotating shaft 3 of the driving mechanism located at an intermediate portion of the carriage are each provided with the rocker arm 5; and the rotating shaft 3 of each of the driving mechanisms located at two ends of the carriage is provided with one rocker arm 5 and the rocker arm 5 is located on the rotating shaft 3 at an end adjacent to other driving mechanisms.

Specifically, the telescoping end of the telescoping cylinder 2 can be connected to any pin shaft 6 or also can be connected to any pre-action rocker arm 52.

In the first embodiment, the telescoping end of the telescoping cylinder 2 is connected to the pre-action rocker arm 52 or the pin shaft 6 of the driving mechanism located at an end portion of the carriage. After the telescoping cylinder 2 drives the driving mechanism at the end portion of the carriage to act to open the door body 1, the driving mechanisms are successively driven to act from one end to another end of the carriage, and the door bodies 1 are successively opened. For the rocker arms 5 at two ends of the rotating shaft 3 of the driving mechanism located at the intermediate portion of the carriage, the rocker arm 5 at one end of the rotating shaft 3 is the pre-action rocker arm 52 and the rocker arm 5 at another end of the rotating shaft 3 is the post-action rocker arm 53, and the end of the rotating shaft 3 having the post-rocker arm 53 is close to the telescoping cylinder 2.

In the second embodiment, the telescoping end of the telescoping cylinder 2 is connected to the pre-action rocker arm 52 or the pin shaft 6 of the driving mechanism located at the intermediate portion of the carriage. After the telescoping cylinder 2 drives the driving mechanism connected to the telescoping cylinder 2 to open the door body 1, the driving mechanisms are successively driven to act from the driving mechanism at the intermediate portion of the carriage to the two ends of the carriage, and the multiple sets of door bodies 1 are successively opened.

If the driving mechanisms located at two ends of the driving mechanism connected to the telescoping cylinder 2 have the same number, two symmetric sets of door bodies 1 are opened at the same time after a first door body 1 is opened, and thus the opening time is shortened. Except for the driving mechanisms connected to the telescoping cylinder 2, in each of the rotating shafts 3 of other driving mechanisms, one end of the rotating shaft 3 having the post-action rocker arm 53 is close to the telescoping cylinder 2, and another end of the rotating shaft 3 having the pre-action rocker arm 52 drives the next driving mechanism which is located further outside.

In the above embodiments, as shown in FIG. 4, the driving rod 4 includes a short rod 41 and connecting rods 42, the rotating shaft 3 is located at the middle of the short rod 41 and can drive the short rod 41 to rotate, and two ends of the short rod 41 are respectively articulated to the connecting rods 42 and are connected to the door body 1 through the connecting rods 42.

FIG. 4 shows the status of the driving rod 4 when the door body 1 is closed. A right end of the short rod 41 deflects upward and anticlockwise by 3 degrees to 4 degrees with respect to a horizontal position of the rotating shaft 3, and a moment generated by the deflection of the short rod 41 acts on the door body 1 to prevent the door body 1 from being opened. In a case that the rotating shaft 3 rotates clockwise by 3 degrees to 4 degrees, the short rod 41 is driven to rotate to pass the horizontal position. After that, a moment, generated by the right end of the short rod 41 continuing to deflect downward and clockwise, is an opening moment of the door body 1.

Before the door body 1 is opened, a moment, generated by the deflection of the short rod 41 to prevent the door body 1 from being opened, is a resistance moment when opening the door body 1. During the process of opening the door body 1, after the short rod 41 rotates over the horizontal position and passes the dead point, the moment generated by the continual rotation of the short rod 41 is the opening moment of the door body 1.

The telescoping cylinder 2 in the above embodiments may be an air cylinder.

The bottom door uses one air cylinder to control the multiple sets of door bodies 1 to be successively opened and to be closed at the same time. At the same time, the requirement of an acting force of the air cylinder is reduced, and thus decreasing the diameter of the air cylinder, realizing the objects of saving space, decreasing the dead weight and improving the reliability.

In addition to the above bottom door, a carriage is further provided according to the present application, which includes a box body and a bottom door. The bottom door is arranged at a bottom of the box body and the bottom door is the above bottom door.

Since the bottom door has the above technical effects, the carriage having the bottom door also has a corresponding technical effect. Reference can be made to the conventional technology for the other structure of the carriage and the structure is not described herein.

The carriage and the bottom door thereof provided according to the present application have been described in detail hereinbefore. The principle and embodiments of the present application are explained by specific examples and the descriptions of the above embodiments are merely used to facilitate understanding the method and core concept of the present application. It should be noted that, for the person skilled in the art, many improvements and modifications may be made to the present application without departing from the principle of the present application, and these improvements and modifications are also deemed to fall into the scope of the present application defined by the claims.
