Description

FIELD OF INVENTION

The present invention generally relates to a substance vehicle used for pyrolysis reactor, in particular to a substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor, which is used for loading carbon black to a substance tank.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

1. Description of the Related Art

In the prior art, the pyrolysis substance vehicle of the pyrolysis reactor contain only one opening on each sides of its body for loading pyrolysis substances into the pyrolysis substance vehicle and discharging pyrolysis substances from the pyrolysis substance vehicle. When the pyrolysis substance vehicle is fully loaded with pyrolysis substance, extreme weight of the pyrolysis substance creates extreme pressure on the bottom opening of the pyrolysis substance vehicle; which often time causing difficulty for the operator to open the bottom opening of the pyrolysis substance vehicle. Therefore, it is necessary to deploy additional heavy machinery to operate the bottom opening of the pyrolysis substance vehicle.

Furthermore, since there is only one bottom opening, the pyrolysis substance will always be discharged completely at once; therefore, it is impossible to control or adjust the discharging speed and volume of the pyrolysis substance.

Based on the aforementioned situation, the inventor of the present invention has researched for years with painstaking effort to create and design a substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor, in order to further improve the deficiency directed to the current art, and thus enhance the implementation in the industry.

2. Summary of the Invention

In view of the above problems of the conventional techniques, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor that is easy to discharge pyrolysis substances. Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a substance vehicle capable of discharging a small amount (or controlled amount) of pyrolysis substances at one time.

According to the purposes of the present invention, a substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor is provided, which includes a vehicle body, at least two movable doors and a movable door operation mechanism. The movable door operation mechanism is comprised of at least two fixed units. The vehicle body has at least two isolated volume spaces. The top of the volume space is in a full-open state so as to dispose the pyrolysis substances into the volume space. The movable door is movably disposed at the bottom of the volume space. The fixed unit is in L-shaped and includes a long strut and a short strut. The long strut corresponding to the volume space is disposed on a side edge of the vehicle body and an end of the long strut adjacent to the bottom of the volume space is connected with the short strut. Wherein, when the short strut is in a first position, the short strut is located below the movable door to prevent opening the movable door. When the fixed unit is rotating, the short strut is rotating to a second position and the short strut disengages from the bottom of the movable door such that the movable door is opened by gravity.

Preferably, an end of the long strut, which is adjacent to the top of the volume space, may be a non-circular structure.

Preferably, an end of the long strut, which is adjacent to the top of the volume space, may be connected to a driving unit to drive the rotation of the fixed unit.

Preferably, when the substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor which loads the pyrolysis substances displaces above a substance tank of the pyrolysis substances or the bottom of the vehicle body enters the substance tank of the pyrolysis substances, the short strut may be displaced from the first position to the second position by rotating the fixed unit to link up the opening of the movable door, such that the pyrolysis substances were discharged to the substance tank of the pyrolysis substances.

Preferably, when the discharge process terminates, the movable door may be pushed against upwardly through an external force so as to close the movable door. The short strut may be displaced from the second position to the first position by rotating the fixed unit.

Preferably, the substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor may further include a partition portion, which is disposed in the vehicle body in order to separate and form a plurality of volume spaces inside the vehicle body. The number of the movable doors corresponds to the number of the volume spaces.

Preferably, a side of the partition portion, which is adjacent to the top of the vehicle body, is disposed with an auxiliary slide portion.

Preferably, the sectional shape of the auxiliary slide portion may be an arc-shaped structure with downward opening, a triangular shape structure with downward opening or a hypotenuse shape structure with the inclined volume spaces.

According to the above, the substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor of the present invention has one or more advantages as follows:

(1) The substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor of the present invention uses the fixed unit to control the opening of the movable door or prevent its opening, thereby during the process of discharging the pyrolysis substances (e.g. carbon black) into the substance tank of the pyrolysis substances, the operators on the side of the substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor may use the auxiliary tools (e.g. wrenches, etc.) from a further distance to make the fixed unit rotating, or the fixed unit is automatically rotated by the driving module. Since the operators are not required to enter the pyrolysis reactor, the harm to the health of the operators caused by the ashes of pyrolysis substances may be effectively reduced and avoid the safety considerations for operators collecting and transporting the pyrolysis substances inside the pyrolysis reactor.

(2) The substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor of the present invention takes advantage the configuration of the auxiliary sliding portion of the arc-shaped structure, the triangular shape structure or the hypotenuse shape structure, such that after the pyrolysis of the pyrolysis substances is completed, the pyrolysis substances automatically slide into the volume space, and there is no residue on the partition portion, the pyrolysis substances may then be ensured to enter the substance tank of the pyrolysis substances.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The above and other objects, features and advantages of this disclosure will become apparent from the following detailed description taken with the accompanying drawings. In order to facilitate the understanding of the features, the contents and the advantages of the present invention, and the effectiveness thereof that can be achieved, the present invention will be illustrated in detail below through embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings. On the other hand, the diagrams used herein are merely intended to be schematic and auxiliary to the specification, but are not necessary to be true scale and precise configuration after implementing the present invention. Thus, it should not be interpreted in accordance with the scale and the configuration of the accompanying drawings to limit the scope of the present invention on the practical implementation.

The embodiments according to the substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor of the present invention will be illustrated as follows with reference to the related drawings. For the ease of understanding, the same elements in the embodiments described below are indicated by the same reference numeral.

Please refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, which are the first angle to the third angle schematic views of the substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor of the present invention respectively. A substance vehicle 1 of pyrolysis reactor of the present invention is applicable to load and transport a pyrolysis substance. As shown in the figures, the substance vehicle 1 of pyrolysis reactor of the present invention includes a vehicle body 10, at least two movable doors 20 and a movable door operation mechanism. The movable door operation mechanism is comprised of at least two fixed units 30. Wherein, the vehicle body 10 includes at least two volume spaces 11 that are isolated or non-communicating with each other. In the present embodiment, it takes four volume spaces as an exemplary aspect. However, in other embodiments, the number of the volume spaces may be even numbers such as two, four, or six, which may be easily changed by one ordinary skilled in the related art. Thus, the embodiments of the other numbers of the volume spaces will be omitted herein and may not be limited thereto. Furthermore, the vehicle body 10 generally may be substantially cylindrical structure. A partition portion 12 may be disposed inside the vehicle body 10 and the four volume spaces 11 may be separated and formed inside the vehicle body 10 by the partition portion 12. For example, the partition portion 12 may be a cross-shaped structure. Thus, when the partition portion 12 is disposed inside the vehicle body 10, the four volume spaces 11 may be separated and formed immediately inside the vehicle body 10. An end of the volume space 11 may be in a full-open state, i.e. the top is in a full-open state. Thereby, the pyrolysis substances may be placed in the volume space 11 of the vehicle body 10 via the top of the vehicle body 10 (i.e. the top of the volume space 11).

It should be mentioned that a side of the partition portion 12, which is adjacent to the top of the vehicle body, may be further disposed with an auxiliary slide portion 13. Wherein the sectional shape of the auxiliary slide portion 13 may be an arc-shaped structure with downward opening, a triangular shape structure with downward opening or a hypotenuse shape structure with the inclined volume spaces 11. Preferably, the shape of the plan view of the auxiliary slide portion 13 is disposed as a cross-shaped structure as same as the one of the partition portion 12 gone along with.

That is, when the pyrolysis substances (e.g., carbon black) were poured or filled from the top of the vehicle body 10 (or the volume space 11), the configuration of the shape (arc-shaped, triangular shape or hypotenuse shape) of the auxiliary slide portion 13 may be taken advantage, such that the pyrolysis substances may slide into the volume space 11 with respect to the shape of the auxiliary slide portion 13 without sticking to the partition portion 12.

In this embodiment, the number of the movable doors 20 corresponds to the number of the volume spaces 11 and is configured as four. Each movable door 20 is movably disposed at the bottom of the vehicle body 10 (i.e. the bottom of the volume space 11), so as to close the bottom of the vehicle body 10 which is in a full-open state, and thereby may accommodate the pyrolysis substances. Each of the movable doors 20 can be operate independently so as to discharge a portion of pyrolysis substances at different time.

In addition, the number of the fixed units 30 also corresponds to the number of the volume spaces 11 and is configured as four. The fixed unit 30 may be in L-shaped and thus the fixed unit 30 may include a long strut 31 and a short strut 32. The fixed units 30 are rotatably disposed on a side edge of the vehicle body 10 and are adjacent to each volume space 11 respectively. That is, the long struts 31 goes along with the axial direction of the vehicle body 10 and is rotatably disposed on the side edge of the vehicle body 10. In this embodiment, the short strut 32 is adjacent to the bottom of the side edge of the vehicle body 10 (i.e. the bottom of the volume space 11).

Please also refer to FIG. 4 to FIG. 5, which are the first angle and the second angle schematic views of the opening of the movable door of the substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor of the present invention respectively.

In detail, the fixed unit 30 may be changed between the first position and the second position during the reciprocating rotation. Wherein, when the short strut 32 is located below the movable door 20, the fixed unit 30 is located at the first position (as shown in the partial enlarged view of FIG. 2), and when the short strut 32 disengages from the bottom of the movable door 20, the fixed unit 30 is located at the second position (as shown in the partial enlarged view of FIG. 4).

The elements which fix the movable door 20 appropriately to the vehicle body 10 were not disposed on the movable door 20. Thus, in the state of nature, the movable door 20 is in an open state due to the factor of gravity. When the fixed unit 30 is located at the first position, since the short strut 32 is located below the movable door 20, the movable door 20 may be prevented from being in an open state due to gravity by the short strut 32. That is, when the fixed unit 30 is located at the first position, the short strut 32 may prevent the movable door 20 from being opened. When the fixed unit 30 is located at the second position, since the short strut 32 is not located below the movable door 20, thus the movable door 20 may be opened by gravity.

Please also refer to FIG. 6, which is a schematic view of the operation of the substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor of the present invention.

Furthermore, the long strut 31 of the fixed unit 30 is adjacent to an end of the top of the vehicle body 10 (volume space 11). The shape the long strut 31 may be disposed as a non-circular structure, e.g., triangle, quadrangle or pentagon etc. (as shown in the partial enlarged view of FIG. 3). Therefore, when the substance vehicle 1 of pyrolysis reactor is placed above a substance tank 9 of a pyrolysis reactor, or when the bottom of the vehicle body 10 enters the substance tank 9, an operator may hitch an end of the long strut 31 by an auxiliary tool (e.g., a wrench with non-circular structure corresponding to an end of the long strut 31) to rotate the fixed unit 30, such that the fixed unit 30 generates an rotational displacement. When the fixed unit 30 is located at the second position, the short strut 32 is not located below the movable door 20, thus the movable door 20 is opened by gravity, such that the pyrolysis substances may be discharged to the substance tank 9 of the pyrolysis substances.

It should be mentioned that the long strut 31 of the fixed unit 30 is adjacent to an end of the top of the vehicle body 10 (volume space 11), which may be directly connected to a driving unit (not shown in the figures), such as a motor. Therefore, when the substance vehicle 1 of pyrolysis reactor which loads the pyrolysis substances displaces above a substance tank 9 of the pyrolysis substances of pyrolysis reactor or the bottom of the vehicle body 10 enters the substance tank 9 of the pyrolysis substances, the relevant operators may operate the driving unit by electrical control to rotate the fixed unit 30, thereby the operation of discharging the pyrolysis substances into the substance tank 9 of the pyrolysis substances described above may be completed. In the present invention, the vehicle body 10 includes at least two volume spaces 11, and each of the volume spaces 11 comprises a respective movable door 20 and a fixed unit 30. Therefore, the movable doors 20 can be operated independently relative to other movable doors 20. An operator can decide to open certain movable door 20 at certain time; and thus, the volume of pyrolysis substances being discharged into the substance tank 9 can be controlled.

Besides, when the discharge process of the substance vehicle 1 of pyrolysis reactor terminates, the movable door 20 may be pushed against upwardly through an external force so as to close the movable door 20. At this moment, the relevant operators may make use of the auxiliary tool again or drive the motor by the electrical control to rotate the fixed unit 30, such that the short strut 32 (the fixed unit 30) displaces from the second position to the first position. In this way, the short strut 32 is located below the movable door 20 again. The degrees of freedom for the movable door 20 rotating downward will be restricted and the movable door 20 may be closed stably. By the way, the movable door 20 may be pushed against upwardly through pushing up the movable door 20 from the bottom to the top by use of tools or devices.

In summary, since the substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor uses the fixed unit to control the opening of the movable door or prevent its opening, the relevant operators may make use of the auxiliary tools which are longer in length to rotate the fixed unit from a further distance, or control the driving module electrically with distance to rotate the fixed unit. Thus, the operators are not required to enter the pyrolysis reactor, the harm to the health of the operators caused by the ashes of pyrolysis substances may be effectively reduced and avoid the safety considerations for operators collecting and transporting the pyrolysis substances inside the pyrolysis reactor.

The above description is only illustrative, but is not restrictive. Any disclosures without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention and its equivalent modifications or changes, should be enclosed within the scope of the appended claims.
