Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of food processing equipment technology, specifically to a tubular chain conveying device for raw materials of Ge Xian rice porridge. Background Technology

[0002] Nostoc commune, scientifically known as *Nostoc* spp., is a low-level, single-celled cyanobacterial algae belonging to the genus *Nostoc* in the phylum Cyanobacteria. It is rich in protein, various amino acids, active polysaccharides, and trace elements. Nostoc commune can be steamed, boiled, stir-fried, or braised, and can also be made into canned goods, sauces, and beverages; it has the effects of clearing heat and improving eyesight, and benefiting the stomach and intestines. Nostoc commune porridge is a nourishing delicacy that combines various nutritious ingredients. The ingredients typically include Nostoc commune, bird's nest, thick coconut milk, oats, white glutinous rice, tricolor quinoa, white fungus, and wild rice. Through scientific proportioning, these ingredients create a rich flavor and more comprehensive nutrition in the porridge.

[0003] The industrial processing of Ge Xian Mi porridge combines traditional agriculture with modern industrial technology. Through standardized and large-scale modern processing techniques, it transforms scattered and fragile primary raw materials into high-value-added products that are safe, controllable, of stable quality, have a long shelf life, and come in a variety of forms. This not only significantly improves production and distribution efficiency, reduces losses and costs, and expands market boundaries to meet diverse consumer demands, but also ensures food safety through full-process quality control, thereby driving the modernization of upstream agriculture such as Ge Xian Mi.

[0004] The industrial processing of Ge Xian rice porridge involves multiple steps and technologies, such as raw material harvesting and pretreatment, cleaning and soaking, and deep processing. In modern processing, conveyors are needed to efficiently transport Ge Xian rice raw materials to ensure the smooth coordination of each step. Tubular chain conveyors are devices that use a traction chain to transport powdery and granular materials and small lumps within a closed pipe. They are particularly suitable for transporting Ge Xian rice porridge raw materials, and their core advantage lies in achieving dust-free, efficient, and stable material transport in complex spatial layouts. They offer significant advantages in short-to-medium distance, complex path transport scenarios, making them an ideal choice that balances efficiency and environmental protection. Examples include the tubular chain conveyor structure in the tubular chain conveyor-type constant scale patent application CN213415205U, and the tubular chain idler wheel structure and tubular chain conveyor structure patent CN214826502U.

[0005] While tubular chain conveyors can transport materials through complex paths, the discs on the inner wall of the pipes are prone to wear and tear over long-term operation due to the curved pipe design, requiring periodic replacement. Tubular chain conveyor discs are available in carbon steel, stainless steel, and plastic. Carbon steel discs are inexpensive, have very high strength and load-bearing capacity, but are prone to rust, are not corrosion-resistant, and generate significant noise. Stainless steel discs are strong, wear-resistant, heat-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and easy to clean, but are heavy, noisy, and expensive. Therefore, plastic discs are widely used in current technology and are the most common type. Materials such as PP (polypropylene), PE (polyethylene), POM (polyoxymethylene), and PA (nylon) offer advantages such as light weight, low noise, corrosion resistance, smooth surface that prevents material adhesion, and lower cost. They are suitable for conveying lightweight, non-heat-sensitive, and non-abrasive materials such as grains, chemical powders, and electronic components. However, their heat resistance and wear resistance are relatively weaker. Therefore, plastic discs have a shorter service life and a more frequent replacement cycle compared to steel discs. Constrained by the curved pipe, the disc moves under the traction of the traction chain. The traction chain applies pressure to the inside of the curved pipe, causing friction and wear. Over time, the plastic disc wears and deforms. Because the circulation pattern of the plastic disc is relatively fixed and only one side of the disc contacts the inside of the curved pipe, the plastic disc continuously rubs against the pipe on one side, causing rapid wear on the contact side of the plastic disc and the pipe, resulting in the need for frequent disc replacement. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve at least one of the problems in the prior art mentioned above, and to provide a tube chain conveying device for raw materials of Ge Xian rice porridge.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A chain conveyor device for raw materials of Ge Xian rice porridge includes:

[0009] A ring chain is used to transport the raw materials for Ge Xian Mi porridge; the ring chain includes several discs;

[0010] A sprocket is used to drive the annular chain to rotate.

[0011] A first bevel gear is connected to the disc;

[0012] The second bevel gear is rotatably mounted on the sprocket and meshes with the first bevel gear;

[0013] A drive structure for driving the second bevel gear to rotate.

[0014] Furthermore, the disc is a circular disc, and the disc includes two mating semicircular discs; the annular chain includes an annular traction chain, and a plurality of mounting seats are evenly spaced on the traction chain. The first bevel gear is spaced on one side of each mounting seat, and the mounting seat and the first bevel gear clamp the two semicircular discs.

[0015] Furthermore, the sprocket has a plurality of grooves corresponding to the discs evenly distributed around its circumference, and the bottom of the grooves is V-shaped; the outer ring side of the sprocket is provided with an annular groove corresponding to the traction chain.

[0016] Furthermore, the annular chain passes sequentially through the conveying pipe and the secondary pipe, the upper and lower ends of which are connected to a housing, and the sprocket is installed inside the housing.

[0017] Furthermore, the driving structure includes:

[0018] The gear ring is installed inside the chassis;

[0019] Several gears are rotatably mounted on the sprocket, and the gears are evenly circumferentially surrounded by the gear ring and mesh with the gear ring;

[0020] A transmission mechanism is connected between the gear and the second bevel gear.

[0021] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism includes:

[0022] The first pulley is connected to the second bevel gear;

[0023] The second pulley is connected to the gear;

[0024] The transmission belt has two ends that are respectively engaged with the first pulley and the second pulley;

[0025] A plurality of short brushes are evenly spaced along the transmission belt, and the short brushes clean the first side of the disc.

[0026] Furthermore, a support body is provided on the inner side of the transmission belt, and the support body is connected to the sprocket.

[0027] Furthermore, a long-bristled brush is connected to one side of the sprocket, and the long-bristled brush is attached to the second side of the disc.

[0028] Furthermore, the chassis is provided with a U-shaped guide groove, the cross-section of which is an upward-opening arc; the middle of the guide groove surrounds the lower side of the sprocket, and the two ends of the guide groove correspond to the conveying pipe and the auxiliary pipe, respectively.

[0029] Furthermore, the sprocket is provided with reinforcing ribs on both sides, and a number of weight-reducing holes are evenly distributed around the circumference of the sprocket.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0031] The driving structure of this invention causes the second bevel gear to drive the first bevel gear to rotate, which in turn causes the disc passing through the sprocket to rotate. During the rotation of the disc through the sprocket, the disc's rotation posture is changed, thereby changing the state of the disc. When the disc enters the conveying pipe, different positions of the disc contact the inside of the curved pipe, thereby avoiding continuous wear on one side of the disc, which helps to improve the service life of the disc, extend the disc replacement cycle, reduce downtime losses, improve production efficiency and enhance economic benefits.

[0032] This invention utilizes the rotational power of the sprocket to transmit the power of the sprocket to the second bevel gear and the disc through a drive structure, thereby achieving the rotation of the disc without the need for additional power equipment. The drive structure uses a fixed gear ring and a gear rotatably mounted on the sprocket. The gear meshes with the gear ring to achieve power output, and the transmission mechanism transmits the power to the second bevel gear.

[0033] The present invention provides a short brush on the outside of the transmission mechanism. As the transmission mechanism rotates in a ring, it drives the short brush to rotate. The short brush passes through the surface of the disc in sequence, which can effectively clean the impurities attached to the side of the disc, keep the disc clean, avoid the accumulation of impurities on the side of the disc, thereby reducing blockage and helping to ensure continuous and efficient conveying.

[0034] This invention utilizes the rotational characteristics of the disc while rotating it by incorporating long-bristled brushes on the sprocket. These brushes have a long, flexible space that does not interfere with the disc entering the groove, and thus does not affect the meshing of the first bevel gear of the disc with the second bevel gear of the sprocket. During the rotation of the disc, it comes into contact with multiple long-bristled brushes fixed on the sprocket, cleaning impurities on the other side of the disc and improving the comprehensiveness of the surface cleaning.

[0035] The disc of the present invention includes two semicircular pieces, which are clamped by a mounting base and a second bevel gear. The second bevel gear performs a clamping function while transmitting power, and the mounting base is connected to the second bevel gear by bolts, which can ensure the stability of the disc and facilitate the replacement of the disc.

[0036] The present invention provides a U-shaped guide groove on the outside of the sprocket to improve the stability of the disc as it passes through the sprocket, which helps the first bevel gear and the second bevel gear of the disc to mesh and promotes the self-rotation adjustment of the disc's posture.

[0049] 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 for explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention; that is, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

[0050] Specific embodiments of the tube chain conveying device for Ge Xian rice porridge provided by the present invention:

[0051] Please refer to the attached document. Figures 1-11 The chain conveyor device for raw materials of Ge Xian rice porridge includes a housing 9, a geared motor 10, a conveying pipe 11, a secondary pipe 12, a ring chain 1, a sprocket 2, a first bevel gear 5, a second bevel gear 15, and a drive structure.

[0052] The upper and lower ends of the conveying pipe 11 and the secondary pipe 12 are both connected to the housing 9. There are two housings 9, and the two housings 9 are vertically spaced. The ring chain 1 passes through the two housings 9, the conveying pipe 11, and the secondary pipe 12 in sequence. In this embodiment, the conveying pipe 11 and the secondary pipe 12 have the same structure and are arranged in parallel. The conveying pipe 11 and the secondary pipe 12 are U-shaped, and their U-shaped openings face the horizontal side.

[0053] The turning sections at the upper and lower ends of the ring chain 1 pass through the housing 9. Each housing 9 is equipped with a sprocket 2, which drives the ends of the ring chain 1 to rotate. A geared motor 10 is located on the upper side of each housing 9. The output shaft of the geared motor 10 extends into the housing 9 to drive the sprocket 2 to rotate. The sprocket 2 drives the ring chain 1 to rotate, thus causing the ring chain 1 to pass sequentially through the two housings 9, the conveying pipe 11, and the auxiliary pipe 12.

[0054] Each chassis 9 includes a detachable upper wall. The upper wall of chassis 9 is connected to the lower chassis 9 by bolts. The geared motor 10 is mounted on the upper wall of chassis 9. In some embodiments, the output shaft of the geared motor 10 passes through the sprocket 2 and drives the sprocket 2 by a key. The upper and lower walls of chassis 9 are provided with bearing seats to support the output shaft of the geared motor 10.

[0055] The annular chain 1 passes through the conveying pipe 11 to transport the raw materials for the Ge Xian rice porridge. The upper part of the lower section of the conveying pipe 11 is connected to an inlet pipe 13, and the lower part of the upper section of the conveying pipe 11 is connected to a discharge pipe 14. The annular chain 1 moves upward within the conveying pipe 11, lifting the raw materials, and the raw materials entering from the inlet pipe 13 are lifted to the discharge pipe 14 for discharge. The secondary pipe 12 contains no raw materials and is used for resetting the annular chain 1. The annular chain 1 moves downward within the secondary pipe 12.

[0056] The annular chain 1 includes several discs 3, which contact the inside of the pipe. In this embodiment, the discs 3 are made of plastic. Due to the traction force of the sprocket 2, the annular chain 1 rubs against the curved parts of the conveying pipe 11 and the secondary pipe 12, especially the inside of the curved pipe parts of the conveying pipe 11 and the secondary pipe 12, causing wear on one side of the discs 3 of the annular chain 1.

[0057] In this embodiment, both the conveying pipe 11 and the auxiliary pipe 12 have circular cross-sections. The disc 3 is a circular disc, comprising two mating semicircular discs. The two semicircular discs are mated to form a circular disc 3. Since the disc 3 in this embodiment is made of plastic, it has a circular plate-like structure.

[0058] The ring chain 1 includes a ring-shaped traction chain 101. The traction chain 101 is made of steel wire rope, which can be a complete ring or divided into several segments connected between adjacent discs 3. In some other embodiments, the steel wire rope can be replaced by a chain. A plurality of mounting seats 4 are evenly spaced on the traction chain 101. The mounting seats 4 are fixedly connected to the traction chain 101. The mounting seats 4 have a through hole in the center through which the traction chain 101 passes. The mounting seats 4 can be fixedly connected to the traction chain 101 by through-screws to achieve positioning. In some embodiments, the mounting seats 4 can also be fixedly connected to the traction chain 101 by steel wire rope buckles.

[0059] The mounting base 4 is provided with the aforementioned first bevel gears 5 at intervals on one side. The first bevel gear 5 has a through hole in its center, through which the traction chain 101 slides. The mounting base 4 and the first bevel gear 5 clamp two semicircular pieces to fix the disc 3. Specifically, the mounting base 4 and the first bevel gear 5 are connected at the middle by three through clamping bolts 6, which clamp the two semicircular pieces so that the two semicircular pieces are combined to form the disc 3.

[0060] The disc 3 has a through hole in its center for the traction chain 101 to pass through. This is manifested on two semicircular discs, each with a semicircular groove in its center, which, when combined, forms the through hole in the center of the disc 3. The disc 3 also has a through hole in its middle for the clamping bolt 6 to pass through, preventing the disc 3 from rotating loose and rubbing against the mounting base 4 and the first bevel gear 5. By removing the clamping bolt 6 and moving the first bevel gear 5, the disc 3 can be removed, allowing for replacement of the plastic disc 3.

[0061] The first bevel gear 5 has bevel teeth distributed in a conical ring on its outer side. In this embodiment, the mounting base 4 has a similar external structure to the first bevel gear 5, but without bevel teeth. Instead, the outer side of the mounting base 4 has a smooth conical ring surface.

[0062] The sprocket 2 has several grooves 7 evenly distributed around its circumference, corresponding to the discs 3. The bottom of the grooves 7 is V-shaped, and the two sides of the groove opening are rounded to facilitate the discs 3 entering the grooves 7. During the process of the discs 3 entering the grooves 7, the V-shaped bottom of the grooves allows the discs 3 to align with the center of the grooves 7, thus limiting the discs 3 and reducing their deflection. After the discs 3 enter the grooves 7, the inner ends of the mounting base 4 and the first bevel gear 5 are located inside the rounded corners of the groove opening. There are small gaps between the two side walls of the grooves 7 and the mounting base 4 and the first bevel gear 5. The two side walls of the groove opening limit the mounting base 4 and the first bevel gear 5, thereby limiting the discs 3, further ensuring the centered position and positional stability of the discs 3, and reducing the deflection of the discs 3.

[0063] The outer ring side of the sprocket 2 is provided with an annular groove 8 corresponding to the traction chain 101. The annular groove 8 is used to limit the traction chain 101, so that the traction chain 101 stably passes around the sprocket 2 and prevents the annular chain 1 from disengaging from the sprocket 2. With the sprocket 2 having the groove 7 and the annular groove 8, when the sprocket 2 rotates, the sprocket 2 can accurately drive the annular chain 1 to rotate without misalignment or disengagement.

[0064] The sprocket 2 has reinforcing ribs 25 on both sides. Each reinforcing rib 25 includes a ring rib and several radial ribs. The reinforcing ribs 25 enhance the structural strength of the sprocket 2 and prevent deformation under heavy loads. Several weight-reducing holes 26 are evenly distributed around the circumference of the sprocket 2. The weight-reducing holes 26 are located between the radial ribs and can reduce the weight of the sprocket 2 itself.

[0065] The first bevel gear 5 is bolted to the disc 3 via clamping bolts 6, thereby enabling the first bevel gear 5 and the disc 3 to move together. The second bevel gear 15 is rotatably mounted on the sprocket 2 and meshes with the first bevel gear 5. The second bevel gear 15 has a central axle. The sprocket 2 is provided with a bearing 18 that supports the rotation of the axle of the second bevel gear 15. The bearing 18 is located on one side of the groove 7. The number of second bevel gears 15 and the number of bearings 18 are the same as the number of grooves 7.

[0066] The drive structure drives the second bevel gear 15 to rotate. After the disc 3 enters the groove 7, the second bevel gear 15 directly contacts the first bevel gear 5. The second bevel gear 15 pushes the first bevel gear 5 and the disc 3 to move. Driven by the drive structure, the second bevel gear 15 rotates and meshes with the first bevel gear 5, causing the first bevel gear 5 and the disc 3 on the outer side of the sprocket 2 to rotate, thereby changing the state of the disc 3 and forcing the traction chain 101 to rotate. When the disc 3 enters the conveying pipe 11, different positions of the disc 3 contact the inner side of the curved pipe section, thereby avoiding continuous wear on one side of the disc 3, helping to improve the service life of the disc 3, extend the replacement cycle of the disc 3, and thus reduce downtime losses, improve production efficiency, and enhance economic benefits.

[0067] The drive structure includes a gear ring 17, several gears 16, and a transmission mechanism 19. The gear ring 17 is installed inside the housing 9; the several gears 16 are rotatably mounted on the sprocket 2, and the gears 16 are evenly arranged around the gear ring 17 and mesh with it. The number of gears 16 is the same as the number of second bevel gears 15, and they correspond one-to-one; the transmission mechanism 19 connects the gears 16 and the second bevel gears 15. The gear ring 17 is connected to the upper wall of the housing 9 and cannot rotate. During the rotation of the sprocket 2, the gears 16 revolve. Because the gears 16 mesh with the gear ring 17 during their revolution, the gears 16 also rotate on their own axis during their revolution. The rotation of the gears 16 causes the second bevel gear 15 to rotate through the transmission mechanism 19, thereby realizing the rotation of the second bevel gear 15 and the disc 3. The rotation and state change of the disc 3 can be achieved without the need for additional power equipment and by selecting a suitable geared motor 10.

[0068] The transmission mechanism 19 includes a first pulley 191, a second pulley 192, and a transmission belt 193. The first pulley 191 is connected to the second bevel gear 15. In this embodiment, the first pulley 191 and the second bevel gear 15 are an integral structure, and the bearing 18 supports the rotation of the second bevel gear 15 and the first pulley 191. The second pulley 192 is connected to the gear 16, and the second pulley 192 and the gear 16 are coaxially connected, with their axles rotatably mounted on the sprocket 2. The two ends of the transmission belt 193 are respectively meshed with the first pulley 191 and the second pulley 192. The transmission belt 193 is preferably a synchronous belt. The transmission mechanism 19 realizes the torque transmission between the gear 16 and the second bevel gear 15. In this embodiment, the transmission mechanism 19 adopts belt drive. In some other embodiments, belt drive can be replaced by traditional chain drive.

[0069] A number of short brushes 20 are evenly spaced along the transmission belt 193, and the short brushes 20 clean the first side of the disc 3. A support body 21 is provided on the inner side of the transmission belt 193, and the support body 21 is connected to the sprocket 2. The support body 21 is supported between two straight sections of the transmission belt 193, and the pulley is supported on the inner side of the arc-shaped section at the end of the transmission belt 193. The support body 21 can prevent the straight section of the transmission belt 193 from deforming, thereby allowing the short brushes 20 to contact the first side of the disc 3, cleaning the impurities attached to the side of the disc 3. The impurities are raw material fragments, keeping the disc 3 clean and preventing the accumulation of impurities on the disc 3. When the disc 3 passes through the conveying pipe 11, it reduces blockage and helps to ensure continuous and efficient conveying.

[0070] On the other hand, under the stable support of the support body 21, the transmission belt 193 and the short brush 20 are attached to one side of the disc 3, so that the disc 3 is kept in the radial state of the sprocket 2, avoiding the deflection of the disc 3 and the misalignment of the first bevel gear 5, ensuring the stability of the meshing of the first bevel gear 5 and the second bevel gear 15, which is conducive to the stable rotation of the disc 3.

[0071] A long brush 22 is connected to one side of the sprocket 2. The long brush 22 extends to the upper side of the groove 7, and the end of the long brush 22 is attached to the second side of the disc 3. The sprocket 2 is connected to a support plate 23 by bolts. The number of support plates 23 is the same as that of the grooves 7 and they correspond one-to-one. The support plate 23 and the bearing seat 18 are located on both sides of their corresponding grooves 7. At least two long brushes 22 facing the disc 3 are provided on the upper side of the support plate 23.

[0072] The support plate 23 and the long-bristled brushes 22 are fixedly mounted on the sprocket 2 by bolts. Due to the rotation of the second bevel gear 15, the first bevel gear 5 and the disc 3 rotate. The rotating disc 3 comes into frictional contact with the multiple long-bristled brushes 22 on the support plate 23, thus cleaning the impurities on the second side of the disc 3 and improving the comprehensiveness of the cleaning of the disc 3 surface. In some embodiments, the long-bristled brushes 22 extend obliquely to the outer ring side of the disc 3 and contact the outer ring side of the disc 3 to clean the outer ring side of the disc 3. At the same time, the long-bristled brushes 22 contact the outer edge of the mounting base 4, further improving the comprehensiveness of the cleaning.

[0073] The short brush 20 is provided on the first side of the disc 3 to fit the disc 3 and limit the position of the disc 3. The long brush 22 is provided on the second side of the disc 3 because: the long brush 22 has a longer flexible space. When the disc 3 enters the groove 7, the long brush 22 is deformed. The long brush 22 does not affect the disc 3 from entering the groove 7. The disc 3 can enter the groove 7 smoothly, and thus does not affect the meshing of the first bevel gear 5 of the disc 3 with the second bevel gear 15 of the sprocket 2.

[0074] The housing 9 is equipped with a U-shaped guide groove 24, which is installed on the upper side of the lower wall of the housing 9. The cross-section of the guide groove 24 is an arc shape with an upward opening. The middle part of the guide groove 24 surrounds the lower side of the sprocket 2, and the two ends of the guide groove 24 correspond to the conveying pipe 11 and the auxiliary pipe 12, respectively. The guide groove 24 further prevents the disc 3 from deflecting, improves the stability of the disc 3 as it passes through the sprocket 2, and helps the first bevel gear 5 and the second bevel gear 15 of the disc 3 to mesh, promoting the self-rotation adjustment posture of the disc 3. On the other hand, the guide groove 24 collects the cleaned impurities. After the impurities attached to the disc 3 fall into the guide groove 24, the disc 3 carries the impurities, i.e., raw material fragments, back into the pipeline.

[0075] Finally, it should be noted that the above descriptions are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still make modifications to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments without creative effort, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
