TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the technical field of hoist, in particular, to a Z-shaped material hoist. BACKGROUND
[0002] The Z-shaped material hoist is a device that realizes the combined conveying of materials in the vertical and horizontal directions through a continuous conveying chain or belt, and is named because the overall conveying path is in the shape of Z.

[0025] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0026] like Figures 1-7 As shown, a Z-shaped material hoist according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is illustrated, including a hoist body 1, a storage bin 2 placed below the hoist body 1, a discharge hopper 3 opened at the top of the hoist body 1, and also including a dust baffle vertical plate 4, a height adjustment component, a dust baffle arc plate 5, and a collection component. The dust baffle vertical plate 4 is fixedly installed on the side of the hoist body 1, the height adjustment component is set at the top of the hoist body 1, two dust baffle arc plates 5 are provided, and both dust baffle arc plates 5 are set on the height adjustment component through an opening and closing component, which is used to simultaneously open and close the two dust baffle arc plates 5. The side of the dust baffle arc plate 5 is provided with several dust chutes, and the dust baffle arc plate 5 is bent inward towards the inside of the hoist body 1. The collection component is set at the bottom of the dust baffle arc plate 5.
[0027] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, when lifting materials, the material is first poured into the internal hopper or tray at the feed inlet of the elevator body 1. Power is provided by the motor and chain, and the rotational motion is converted into the reciprocating linear motion of the conveying components. The track is Z-shaped and divided into a horizontal turning section, an ascending section and a descending section. The inner side of the track is equipped with a guide groove to ensure that the hopper moves smoothly along a fixed path and keeps the hopper horizontal to prevent the material from spilling. After the hopper moves up to the top of the elevator body 1 and passes through the discharge hopper 3, the material in the hopper is unloaded and falls into the storage bin 2 below.
[0028] likeFigure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, during material unloading, the dust-blocking vertical plate 4 first blocks dust particles generated from the side. Then, the two dust-blocking arc plates 5 are synchronously rotated to a vertical position by the opening and closing assembly. The opening and closing assembly includes a rotating shaft 14, a support frame 15, a rotating shaft 16, a rotating gear ring 17, a rotating gear 18, a second motor 19, and a drive assembly. The rotating shaft 14 is rotatably mounted through both sides of the U-shaped frame 12, and the two dust-blocking arc plates 5 are fixedly mounted on the two rotating shafts 14. Two support frames 15 are fixedly mounted on the side of one of the U-shaped frames 12, and the rotating shaft 16 is rotatably mounted through the two support frames 15. A rotating gear ring 17 is fixedly mounted on each of the two rotating shafts 14, and a rotating gear 18 is fixedly mounted on one end of each of the two rotating shafts 16. Two rotating gears 18 mesh with two rotating gear rings 17 respectively. A second motor 19 is mounted on the side of one of the U-shaped frames 12, and the output end of the second motor 19 is coaxially connected to one of the rotating shafts 14. A drive assembly is located on the side of one of the U-shaped frames 12. The drive assembly includes a second support frame 20, a drive shaft 21, a drive gear 22, and a drive gear ring 23. The second support frame 20 is fixedly mounted on the side of one of the U-shaped frames 12. The drive shaft 21 is rotatably mounted through the second support frame 20. Drive gears 22 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the drive shaft 21. Drive gear rings 23 are fixedly mounted on the other end of each of the two rotating shafts 16, and the two drive gear rings 23 mesh with the two drive gears 22 respectively.
[0029] Specifically, the second motor 19 is started, and the output end of the second motor 19 drives one of the rotating shafts 14 to rotate. One of the rotating shafts 14 drives one of the rotating gear rings 17 to rotate. The rotating gear 18 drives the rotating gear 18 meshing with it to rotate. The rotating gear 18 drives one of the rotating shafts 16 to rotate. The rotating shaft 16 drives one of the driving gear rings 23 to rotate. The driving gear ring 23 drives one of the driving gears 22 meshing with it to rotate. The driving gear 22 drives the driving shaft 21 to rotate. The driving shaft 21 drives the driving gear 22 at the other end to rotate. The driving gear 22 drives the driving gear ring 23 meshing with it to rotate. The driving gear ring 23 drives the other rotating shaft 16 to rotate. The other rotating shaft 16 drives the rotating gear 18 to rotate. The rotating gear 18 drives the rotating gear ring 17 meshing with it to rotate. At this time, the two rotating shafts 14 rotate synchronously, thereby driving the two dust-blocking arc plates 5 to rotate synchronously to the vertical position. Since the two dust-blocking arc plates 5 are located on both sides of the discharge hopper 3 of the elevator body 1, they can block the generated dust particles.
[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the height of the two dust-blocking arc plates 5 can be finely adjusted according to the height of the storage bin 2 via a height adjustment component. The height adjustment component includes a support cover 6, a reciprocating screw 7, a first motor 9, a sliding component, and a connecting component. Two support covers 6 are fixedly installed at the top of the elevator body 1. The reciprocating screw 7 is rotatably installed in one of the support covers 6, and a matching crescent-shaped slider 8 is installed on the reciprocating screw 7. The output end of the first motor 9 is installed on the support cover 6, and the output end of the first motor 9 is coaxially connected to the reciprocating screw 7. The sliding component is set in the other support cover 6, and the connecting component is set on the crescent-shaped slider 8 and the sliding component. The sliding component includes a sliding rod 10 and a sliding block 11. The sliding rod 10 is fixedly installed in the other support cover 6, and the sliding block 11 is slidably installed on the sliding rod 10. The connecting component includes a U-shaped frame 12 and a connecting rod 13. The sides of the crescent-shaped slider 8 and the sliding block 11 are both fixedly installed with U-shaped frames 12, and a connecting rod 13 is fixedly installed between the two U-shaped frames 12.
[0031] Specifically, the first motor 9 is started, and the output end of the first motor 9 drives the reciprocating screw 7 to rotate inside the support cover 6. The crescent slider 8 then moves up and down on the reciprocating screw 7. It should be noted that the shape design of the crescent slider 8 matches the spiral groove of the reciprocating screw 7. When the reciprocating screw 7 rotates, the side wall of the spiral groove will generate an axial thrust on the crescent slider 8 embedded therein. The crescent slider 8 can then move along the axial trajectory of the reciprocating screw 7, thereby moving up and down. When the crescent slider 8 reaches the end of the reciprocating screw 7, the crescent slider 8 will smoothly transition to the reverse spiral groove, thereby realizing reciprocating movement. This is a well-known technology and will not be elaborated further. The crescent slider 8 drives one of the U-shaped frames 12 to move up and down. Under the drive of the connecting rod 13, the other U-shaped frame 12 moves up and down, thereby driving the sliding block 11 to rise and fall synchronously on the sliding rod 10, and then driving the two rotating shafts 14 and the dust-proof arc plate 5 to make fine adjustments to their height.
[0032] During dust blocking, a large number of dust particles are blocked and fall into the storage chamber 2. A small number of dust particles will adhere to the side of the dust blocking arc plate 5. Because the dust chute of the dust blocking arc plate 5 is arc-shaped and the curvature of the chute matches that of the dust blocking arc plate 5, some dust particles can slide down the chute and be further collected by the collection component. The collection component includes a connecting frame 24 and a collection box 25. The connecting frame 24 can be detachably installed on the side of both the elevator body 1 and the dust blocking vertical plate 4. The collection box 25 is fixedly installed between the two connecting frames 24. Specifically, because the collection box 25 is located below the dust blocking arc plate 5, dust particles can fall into the collection box 25. After collection, the connecting frame 24 can be detached for collection. It should be noted that the collection box 25 is located below the dust blocking arc plate 5 but is not attached to it. When dust particles fall, they can fall into the collection box 25, and the collection box 25 will not block them when the height of the dust blocking arc plate 5 is adjusted.
[0033] Working principle: When blocking dust particles generated during material lifting, the second motor 19 is first started. The output end of the second motor 19 drives one of the rotating shafts 14 to rotate, which in turn drives one of the rotating gear rings 17 to rotate. The rotating gear ring 17 drives the rotating gear 18 meshing with it to rotate, which in turn drives one of the rotating shafts 16 to rotate. The rotating shaft 16 then drives one of the driving gear rings 23 to rotate, which in turn drives one of the driving gear rings 22 meshing with it to rotate. The driving gear 22 drives the driving shaft 21 to rotate, which in turn drives the other driving gear 22 to rotate. The driving gear 22 then drives the driving gear ring 23 meshing with it to rotate, which in turn drives the other rotating shaft 16 to rotate. The other rotating shaft 16 drives the rotating gear 18 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating gear ring 17 meshing with it to rotate. At this time, the two rotating shafts 14 rotate synchronously, which in turn drives the two dust-blocking arc plates 5 to rotate synchronously to the vertical position, thereby blocking the generated dust particles.
[0034] Furthermore, it can start the first motor 9. The output end of the first motor 9 drives the reciprocating screw 7 to rotate inside the support cover 6. Then the crescent slider 8 moves up and down on the reciprocating screw 7. The crescent slider 8 drives one of the U-shaped frames 12 to move up and down. Under the drive of the connecting rod 13, the other U-shaped frame 12 moves up and down, thereby driving the sliding block 11 to rise and fall synchronously on the sliding rod 10. This, in turn, drives the two rotating shafts 14 and the dust-blocking arc plate 5 to make fine adjustments to their height, thereby blocking dust particles into the storage chamber 2.
[0035] It should also be noted that the reciprocating screw is equipped with a telescopic protective sleeve to protect it, and the outer wall of the gear section can be detachably fitted with a protective cover to protect the meshing between the gears.
[0036] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this disclosure and are not intended to limit it. Although this disclosure has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this disclosure, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this disclosure.
