[0005] Furthermore, the second bearing is a tapered roller bearing.

[0006] Furthermore, double-lip skeleton oil seals are respectively installed between the first bearing and the horizontal shaft and between the second bearing and the vertical shaft.

[0007] The beneficial effects of adopting the above structure are as follows: The novel L-shaped screw conveyor of the present invention only requires one power mechanism to drive it, and can change the shaft angle by different transmission ratios. Compared with two separate screws, it reduces the cost of use and can meet the user's needs when the screw angle is too large. Attached Figure Description
