Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tube chain conveyors, in particular to a grain processing circulating tube chain conveyor. Background Art

[0002] Circulating pipe chain conveyors, also known as pipe chain conveyors or double-tube conveyors, are continuous conveying equipment specifically for bulk materials such as powders, small particles, and small blocks. They are often used to transport grain. However, the conveying pipelines of circulating pipe chain conveyors are currently prone to material jamming and blockage. In addition, when transporting grains with high moisture content (such as wheat and rice), if the downtime is long, the wheat and rice remaining in the pipeline are prone to mold and deterioration, which not only affects subsequent use but may also cause pollution and damage to the equipment.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new grain processing circulating pipe chain conveyor to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a grain processing circulating tube chain conveyor.

[0005] The grain processing circulating pipe chain conveyor provided by the present invention includes a conveying pipe, which is a ring-shaped structure, and is provided with a chain and a disc installed on the chain for pushing grain;

[0006] The conveying pipe is provided with a plurality of equally spaced vibration material components, which vibrate the grain in the conveying pipe to ensure smooth grain transportation by the pipe chain conveyor;

[0007] The outer wall of the delivery pipe is provided with a plurality of equally spaced annular grooves, and the inner wall of the delivery pipe corresponding to the annular grooves is provided with a plurality of annularly distributed installation cavities;

[0008] The vibration material assembly includes a steel ball. A slidingly connected steel ball is installed in each of the installation cavities, and a spring elastically connected to the installation cavity is installed on the steel ball.

[0009] Preferably, an L-shaped exhaust hole is opened on the steel ball, and an elastic telescopic air guide tube is fixedly installed at the opening of the L-shaped exhaust hole facing the bottom wall of the installation cavity, an annular tube is fixedly embedded in the annular groove, and the annular tube and the elastic telescopic air guide tube are connected to each other.

[0010] Preferably, the other opening of the L-shaped exhaust hole is located in the conveying pipe and faces the direction of grain conveying.

[0011] Preferably, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the side of the steel ball facing away from the axis of the delivery pipe, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the installation cavity.

[0012] Preferably, the delivery pipe is also provided with an air supply pipe for connecting the annular pipes in all the vibration material assemblies.

[0013] Preferably, the air supply pipe is fixedly connected to the output end of the air pump.

[0014] Compared with related technologies, the grain processing circulating tube chain conveyor provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. When the disc slides to the steel ball, the disc contacts the steel ball and slides along the installation cavity and compresses the spring. When the disc slides over the steel ball, the elastic force of the compressed spring drives the steel ball into the conveying pipe, thereby impacting the grain in the conveying pipe and reducing the hidden dangers of material jamming and clogging of the pipe chain conveyor.

[0016] 2. The present invention turns on the air pump so that the air supply pipe supplies air to the annular pipe in each group of vibration material components, and the annular pipe diverts the air supply to each elastic telescopic air guide pipe, so that the gas is discharged into the L-shaped exhaust hole opened by the steel ball through the elastic telescopic air guide pipe, and is blown toward the grain in the conveying pipe from the opening of the L-shaped exhaust hole in the direction of grain conveying. On the one hand, the dryness of the pipeline and the grain in the pipeline is enhanced, and on the other hand, the smoothness of the grain conveying in the pipeline is improved.

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0023] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0024] See also Figures 1 to 4 An embodiment of the present invention provides a grain processing circulating pipe chain conveyor, which includes a conveying pipe 1 and a vibrating material component 2. The conveying pipe 1 is a ring-shaped structure, and a chain and a disc installed on the chain for pushing grain are provided in the conveying pipe 1. The ring-shaped pipe chain conveyor drives the chain to rotate in the conveying pipe 1, thereby driving the disc of the chain to push the grain. This is an existing technology and will not be described in detail.

[0025] In the embodiments of the present invention, see Figures 1 to 4 The outer wall of the conveying pipe 1 is provided with a number of equidistant annular grooves 1a, and the inner wall of the conveying pipe 1 corresponding to the annular grooves 1a is provided with a number of annular installation cavities 1b, and the conveying pipe 1 is provided with a plurality of groups of equidistantly distributed vibration material components 2, which vibrate the conveying pipe 1 through the vibration material components 2 to achieve smooth grain transportation by the pipe chain conveyor, and the vibration material components 2 include steel balls 21, each of the installation cavities 1b is installed with a slidingly connected steel ball 21, and a spring 22 elastically connected to the installation cavity 1b is installed on the steel ball 21, and one end of the spring 22 is fixedly connected to the side of the steel ball 21 away from the axis of the conveying pipe 1, and the other end of the spring 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the installation cavity 1b.

[0026] It should be noted that: when the disc pushes the grain in the conveying pipe 1, when the disc slides to the steel ball 21, the disc presses against the steel ball 21 and slides along the installation cavity 1b and compresses the spring 22. After the disc slides over the steel ball 21, the elastic force of the compressed spring 22 drives the steel ball 21 to slide into the conveying pipe 1, thereby colliding with the grain in the conveying pipe 1, reducing the hidden dangers of material jamming and blockage of the pipe chain conveyor.

[0027] In the embodiments of the present invention, see Figures 1 to 4 The steel ball 21 is provided with an L-shaped exhaust hole 21a, and an elastic telescopic air guide tube 23 is fixedly installed on the opening of the L-shaped exhaust hole 21a facing the inner bottom wall of the installation cavity 1b. An annular tube 24 is fixedly embedded in the annular groove 1a, and the annular tube 24 is connected to the elastic telescopic air guide tube 23. The other opening of the L-shaped exhaust hole 21a is located in the conveying pipe 1 and faces the direction of grain conveying.

[0028] The delivery pipe 1 is also provided with an air supply pipe 3 for connecting the annular pipes 24 in all the vibrating material components 2, and the air supply pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the output end of the air pump.

[0029] It should be noted that: the air pump of the present application adopts a hot air pump, and by turning on the hot air pump, the air supply pipe 3 supplies air to the annular tube 24 in each group of vibration material components 2, and the annular tube 24 diverts the air supply to each elastic telescopic air guide tube 23, so that the gas is discharged into the L-shaped exhaust hole 21a opened by the steel ball 21 through the elastic telescopic air guide tube 23, and is blown toward the grain in the conveying pipe 1 from the opening of the L-shaped exhaust hole 21a in the direction of grain conveying. On the one hand, the dryness of the pipeline and the grain in the pipeline is enhanced, and on the other hand, the smoothness of the grain conveying in the pipeline is improved.

[0030] The working principle of the grain processing circulating tube chain conveyor provided by the present invention is as follows:

[0031] When the disc pushes the grain in the conveying pipe 1, when the disc slides to the steel ball 21, the disc hits the steel ball 21 and slides along the installation cavity 1b and compresses the spring 22. When the disc slides over the steel ball 21, the elastic force of the compressed spring 22 drives the steel ball 21 to slide into the conveying pipe 1, thereby impacting the grain in the conveying pipe 1, reducing the hidden dangers of material jamming and clogging of the pipe chain conveyor. The air pump of this application adopts a hot air pump, and by turning on the hot air pump, the air supply pipe 3 supplies air to the annular tube 24 in each group of vibrating material components 2, and the annular tube 24 diverts the air supply to each elastic telescopic air guide tube 23, so that the gas is discharged into the L-shaped exhaust hole 21a opened by the steel ball 21 through the elastic telescopic air guide tube 23, and is blown to the grain in the conveying pipe 1 from the orifice of the L-shaped exhaust hole 21a toward the direction of grain conveying. On the one hand, it enhances the dryness of the pipeline and the grain in the pipeline, and on the other hand, it improves the smoothness of grain transportation in the pipeline.

[0032] The circuits and controls involved in the present invention are all prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0033] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present invention description and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
