Detailed Implementation

[0016] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

[0017] Reference Figures 1-4 A material conveying device for a sintering furnace for new energy vehicle batteries includes a horizontal box 1 fixedly installed on a vertical box 2. A fixed groove 10 is provided in the horizontal box 1. A drive motor 14 is fixedly installed in the fixed groove 10. A drive rod is fixedly installed on the drive end of the drive motor 14. A conveyor belt 5 is installed between the drive rod and the fixed groove 10 through a transmission mechanism. A processing chamber 15 is provided in the horizontal box 1. Two linkage rollers 16 are rotatably installed in the processing chamber 15. A crushing roller 17 is fixedly installed on each of the two linkage rollers 16. The following points are worth noting: 1. The transmission mechanism includes an active roller fixedly mounted on the drive rod, a driven roller rotatably mounted in the fixed groove 10, and a conveyor belt 5 fixedly sleeved between the active roller and the driven roller. When the drive motor 14 starts, it will drive the drive rod and the active roller to rotate, and will cooperate with the driven roller to drive the conveyor belt 5 for transmission, thus enabling the material on the conveyor belt 5 to be transported horizontally over long distances.

[0018] 2. Two blocking side plates 4 are fixedly installed inside the fixed trough 10, and the two blocking side plates 4 are located on both sides of the conveyor belt 5 respectively. The material is placed to fall from both sides during the transmission. A feeding inclined plate 3 is fixedly installed between the horizontal box 1 and the fixed trough 10 to facilitate the placement of materials.

[0019] 3. Multiple drop holes 6 are provided on the conveyor belt 5. The multiple drop holes 6 on the conveyor belt 5 can screen the material during the material conveying process, so that the smaller material falls into the processing chamber 15 through the drop holes 6, thereby realizing the self-classification of the material.

[0020] 4. A linkage mechanism is installed between the two linkage rollers 16 and the drive rod. The linkage mechanism includes a transmission rod 19 rotatably installed in the processing cavity 15. A transmission belt is fixedly sleeved between the transmission rod 19 and the drive rod. A helical gear 20 is fixedly installed on the transmission rod 19. A helical gear 21 that cooperates with the helical gear 20 is fixedly installed on each of the two linkage rollers 16. The rotation of the drive rod will drive the transmission rod 19 to rotate through the transmission belt. The rotation of the transmission rod 19 will drive the helical gear 20 to rotate. Thus, under the cooperation of the two helical gears 21, the two transmission rods 19 will be driven to rotate.

[0021] 5. A drop box 18 is fixedly installed between the processing chamber 15 and the fixed groove 10. Small-diameter materials that fall to the bottom of the fixed groove 10 will fall into the processing chamber 15 through the drop box 18. At this time, the transmission rod 19 will rotate and drive the two crushing rollers 17 to rotate, which will crush the material and further reduce the volume of the material for easy conveying.

[0022] Reference Figure 3 , Figures 5-7 The vertical box 2 has a first loading chamber 22 and a second loading chamber 23. The first loading chamber 22 is equipped with an inclined plate 29 through a sliding mechanism, and a lifting mechanism is installed between the inclined plate 29 and the first loading chamber 22. The second loading chamber 23 is equipped with a blower 26, and an upper spray hood 27 is fixedly installed on the output end of the blower 26 through an upper spray pipe 28. The second loading chamber 23 is equipped with a bearing plate, and multiple transmission pipes 12 are fixedly installed between the second loading chamber 23 and the processing chamber 15. The following points are worth noting: 1. The sliding mechanism includes a trapezoidal slider fixedly installed in the feeding chamber 22. A trapezoidal groove is provided in the inclined plate 29, and the trapezoidal slider is engaged in the trapezoidal groove. Two reset spring rods 30 are fixedly installed between the inclined plate 29 and the bottom wall of the feeding chamber 22 to facilitate the reset of the inclined plate 29. The sliding mechanism is used to ensure that the inclined plate 29 can only slide vertically in the feeding chamber 22 without offset or separation from it.

[0023] 2. A material guiding mechanism is installed on the vertical box 2. The material guiding mechanism includes a material guiding port 11 opened in the horizontal box 1 and the vertical box 2. The material guiding port 11 is connected to the fixed groove 10 and the feeding chamber 22 respectively. A limiting inclined plate 13 is fixedly installed in the fixed groove 10. An electric control door is provided in the material guiding port 11. Large-diameter materials conveyed by the conveyor belt 5 will fall to the right side of the fixed groove 10. Opening the electric control door will cause the material to fall through the material guiding port 11 onto the inclined plate 29 in the feeding chamber 22 and accumulate.

[0024] 3. The lifting mechanism includes a hoisting motor fixedly installed on the top wall of the feeding chamber 22. A winding roller 24 is fixedly installed on the drive end of the hoisting motor, and a traction rope 25 is fixedly connected between the winding roller 24 and the inclined plate 29. A control button 31 that cooperates with the hoisting motor is fixedly installed at the bottom of the feeding chamber 22, and a contact rod 32 that cooperates with the control button 31 is fixedly installed on the inclined plate 29. When the material gradually accumulates, it will press the inclined plate 29 to gradually descend. When the inclined plate 29 descends to the point where the contact rod 32 touches the control button 31, the hoisting motor will start.

[0025] 4. An inclined discharge slot is provided between the feeding chamber 22 and the vertical box 2, and a discharge box 7 that matches the inclined discharge slot is fixedly installed on the vertical box 2. When the hoisting motor is started, it will drive the winding roller 24 to rotate and wind up the traction rope 25, which will pull the inclined plate 29 and the large-diameter material on it to rise. When the inclined plate 29 rises to the inclined discharge slot, the large-diameter material on the inclined plate 29 will be discharged through the inclined discharge slot and the discharge box 7, thus realizing the independent feeding of large-diameter material. The opening and closing of the guide port 11 can be controlled by controlling the electric control door to realize intermittent material conveying.

[0026] 5. When the blower 26 starts, it will draw in small-diameter materials in the processing chamber 15 through the transmission pipe 12, and after being adsorbed by the blower 26, it will be sprayed upward through the upper spray pipe 28 and the upper spray hood 27.

[0027] 6. A discharge structure is installed between the feeding chamber 23 and the vertical box 2. The discharge structure includes multiple discharge pipes 9 fixedly installed between the feeding chamber 23 and the vertical box 2. An inclined guide groove is opened between the feeding chamber 23 and the vertical box 2. A discharge box 28 that cooperates with the inclined guide groove is fixedly installed on the vertical box 2. The small-diameter material sprayed out by the upper spray hood 27 will rise in the feeding chamber 23 and be discharged through the inclined guide groove and the discharge box 28, realizing the independent conveying operation of small-diameter material.

[0028] 7. Multiple discharge pipes 9 are located on the support plate. Small-diameter material debris that does not pass through the inclined guide groove will fall onto the support plate. The discharge pipes 9 can be opened periodically to remove and clean the debris.

[0029] In this invention, the operator places different kinds of materials on the conveyor belt 5, starts the drive motor 14 to drive the conveyor belt 5, and thus realizes the horizontal conveying of materials. Large-diameter materials conveyed by conveyor belt 5 fall to the right side of fixed trough 10. Opening the electric control door allows the material to fall through the guide port 11 onto the inclined plate 29 in the feeding chamber 22 and accumulate. As the material gradually accumulates, it will press the inclined plate 29 down. When the inclined plate 29 descends to the point where the contact rod 32 touches the control button 31, the hoisting motor will start and drive the winding roller 24 to rotate and rewind the traction rope 25, which will pull the inclined plate 29 and the large-diameter material on it to rise. When the inclined plate 29 rises to the inclined discharge trough, the large-diameter material on the inclined plate 29 will be discharged through the inclined discharge trough and discharge box 7, thus realizing the independent feeding of large-diameter materials. The opening and closing of the guide port 11 can be controlled by controlling the electric control door to realize the intermittent conveying of large-diameter materials. When the material is conveyed on the conveyor belt 5, the smaller particles fall into the fixed groove 10 through the drop hole 6 and into the processing chamber 15 through the drop box 18. When the material falls, the crushing roller 17 rotates with the help of the linkage mechanism to cut and crush the small particles, further reducing the volume of the material. The crushed material will gradually accumulate in the processing chamber 15. When feeding, the blower 26 is started to suck the small particles in the processing chamber 15 into the transmission pipe 12. After being adsorbed by the blower 26, the material is sprayed out through the upper spray pipe 28 and the upper spray cover 27. The small particles sprayed out by the upper spray cover 27 will rise in the feeding chamber 23 and be discharged through the inclined guide groove and the discharge box 28, realizing the independent conveying operation of small particles.
