Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of material hoisting technology, specifically to a circular arc guide Z-type hoist based on gradual curvature. Background Technology
[0002] The Z-type elevator is a continuous conveying equipment used for conveying powdery, granular, and small lump bulk materials. Its core feature lies in its unique "Z"-shaped conveying path, achieving closed and efficient material transfer between multi-story buildings or process equipment at different heights through a combination of three stages: horizontal feeding, vertical lifting, and horizontal discharging. The equipment mainly consists of a drive unit, traction components, a carrying hopper, and a casing forming a closed "Z"-shaped channel. During operation, the hopper receives material at the bottom horizontal section, moves upwards along the vertical section driven by the traction components, and finally discharges at the top horizontal section, forming a continuous cycle. With its compact structure, small footprint, excellent sealing, and low material breakage rate, the Z-type elevator has been widely used in industrial fields such as food, chemical, pharmaceutical, and building materials, where the temperature and properties of materials are critical.
[0003] However, when applying Z-type elevators to actual working conditions of conveying pre-mixed materials, especially in situations with strict proportions such as feed transportation, the existing structural design has significant technical defects. Specifically, the curvature transition zone between the horizontal and vertical sections forming the "Z" shaped path is a critical area where the material's trajectory and stress state change drastically. When the hopper carrying the uniformly mixed material passes through this curvature section, under the action of centrifugal force, the lighter feed in the mixture is more easily thrown up, while the heavier feed is more difficult to throw up. This results in the originally well-mixed feed being in a situation where the lighter feed is on top and the heavier feed is at the bottom, requiring subsequent mixing operations during bagging, increasing the workload. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a circular arc guide Z-type elevator based on gradual curvature, which solves the problems mentioned in the background section of the prior art.
[0005] This invention provides the following technical solution: a circular arc guide Z-type elevator based on gradual curvature, comprising a base, a mounting frame fixedly mounted on the base, a shell fixedly mounted on the outer side of the mounting frame, a baffle provided inside the mounting frame, and a mixing component fixedly mounted between adjacent baffles. The curvature of the mounting frame gradually changes at the bends, and the curvature of the mounting frame gradually decreases as it moves from the vertical section to the horizontal section. Through the cooperation of the mixing component and the shell, the material in the gradually curvature section of the mounting frame can be remixed, reducing the occurrence of stratification.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the hybrid component includes a mounting shell with a sliding hole. A connecting rod is slidably mounted in the sliding hole. A contact plate is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the connecting rod. A protective pad is fixedly mounted on the contact plate. A pressure plate is fixedly mounted on the end of the connecting rod away from the contact plate. A plurality of springs are fixedly mounted on the pressure plate. One end of each spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting shell, and the other end is fixedly connected to the pressure plate.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a fixed base is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting shell, a first flipping member is rotatably installed on the fixed base, a connecting plate is fixedly installed at the end of the first flipping member, a driving plate is fixedly hinged to the end of the connecting plate away from the first flipping member, a mounting base is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the mounting shell, and the driving plate is rotatably installed on the mounting base.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the drive plate is L-shaped, with its longer section hinged to the connecting plate and its shorter section located below the pressure plate.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the contact plate is inverted U-shaped, and the protective pad is located on the flat section of the contact plate.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a structure combining a first flipping member and a second flipping member may also be provided below the mounting shell, with the first flipping member and the second flipping member symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting shell.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the first flipping component includes a fixed rod, a plurality of flipping rods are fixedly mounted on the fixed rod, a fixed block is fixedly mounted on the fixed rod, a gear is fixedly mounted on the fixed block, and the gear is rotatably mounted on a fixed seat.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, when the first and second flipping components are used in combination, the pressure plate at the lower end of the connecting rod is replaced with a rack, and the rack meshes with the gear.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a discharge port is fixedly installed on the mounting frame.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the baffle is in the shape of a quarter circle, and its arc segment faces the opposite direction of the moving direction.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: This invention addresses the issue of premixed materials. By designing the bending points of the mounting frame with a gradually changing curvature structure, the premixed materials, unlike ordinary bulk materials, are highly sensitive to mechanical disturbances during transport. Even slight abrupt changes in trajectory can lead to material stratification, thus requiring a smoother transport path than in ordinary bulk material transport. In operation, the baffle carries the premixed materials from the vertical section to the horizontal section of the mounting frame. As the curvature of the mounting frame gradually decreases, the baffle's movement trajectory transitions slowly. When the baffle passes through the gradually changing curvature section, the initial curvature matches the vertical section, preventing severe disturbance to the material. Only as the curvature gradually decreases and the baffle smoothly transitions to the horizontal section does the material's stress state change slowly. The curvature of the mounting frame gradually decreases, minimizing stress disturbance to the material as the baffle completes its turning process. Throughout the baffle's movement, the material remains stable, preventing secondary stratification, maintaining better mixing uniformity, and achieving superior transport efficiency.
[0016] This invention addresses the issue of premixed materials stratifying under centrifugal force even after passing through a curvature gradient section. During operation, a baffle carries the material through the curvature gradient section. The outer shell contacts the contact plate of the mixing component and applies pressure, pushing a connecting rod to move a pressure plate or rack. When the pressure plate or rack moves to a position matching the drive plate or gear, the spring is initially in a reset state and does not drive the flipping component. Only when the distance between the outer shell and the mixing component reaches a narrower position does the pressure plate or rack move to the corresponding position, precisely engaging with the drive plate or gear, thus rotating the first flipping component or a combination of the first and second flipping components. The flipping components on the mixing component can be flexibly adapted from single to combined components. As the material passes through the curvature gradient section, the flipping components agitate and stir the material, correcting slight stratification and further improving mixing uniformity, thus meeting more stringent material conveying requirements.
[0017] This invention utilizes a baffle designed as a quarter-circle with the arc segment facing the opposite direction of movement. Combined with the curvature gradient structure of the mounting frame, the material tends to shift to one side of the baffle due to inertia as it moves through the curvature gradient section. Unlike ordinary flat baffles, this significantly increases the requirements for material guidance and buffering compared to conventional elevators. During operation, the baffle carries the material through the curvature gradient section. The material moves towards the baffle due to inertia. When the material contacts the arc segment of the baffle, the arc structure disperses the impact force, preventing violent collisions. The synergistic effect of the baffle's arc structure and the curvature gradient section's guiding effect ensures smooth material flow during the turning process. This prevents damage and additional stratification caused by collisions, improves material conveying efficiency, and further guarantees material integrity and uniform mixing.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0021] Please see Figures 1-7 As shown, the device includes a base 1, a mounting frame 2 fixedly mounted on the base 1, a housing 3 fixedly mounted on the outside of the mounting frame 2, a baffle 4 inside the mounting frame 2, and a mixing component 5 fixedly mounted between adjacent baffles 4. The curvature of the mounting frame 2 gradually changes at the bends. As the mounting frame 2 moves from the vertical section to the horizontal section, the curvature of the mounting frame 2 gradually decreases. Through the cooperation of the mixing component 5 and the housing 3, the material in the section with the gradually changing curvature of the mounting frame 2 can be mixed again, reducing the occurrence of stratification.
[0022] Furthermore, when the equipment starts conveying materials, the user activates the drive unit, which drives the traction component to move. The traction component moves the baffle 4 along the mounting frame 2. The base 1 provides fixed support for the mounting frame 2. The mounting frame 2 provides a conveying path for the baffle 4 and materials. The outer shell 3 is fixed to the outside of the mounting frame 2 to achieve airtight protection. The mixing component 5 between adjacent baffles 4 cooperates with the outer shell 3. Once the baffle 4 carries the premixed material into the bend of the mounting frame 2, because the bend has a gradually changing curvature structure, the curvature of the mounting frame 2 gradually decreases as it moves from the vertical section to the horizontal section, and the baffle will smoothly transition, reducing material disturbance. At the same time, the outer shell... 3. The material comes into contact with the mixing component 5, which remixes the material in the curvature gradient section, thereby reducing the stratification of the material. Finally, the baffle 4 moves along the top horizontal section of the mounting frame 2 and completes the unloading, forming a complete conveying cycle. Because the curvature of this device changes gradually at the bend, the baffle commonly used in Z-type elevators is not used as the receiving component. Instead, the baffle 4 is selected as the receiving component. The baffle 4 can cooperate well with the smooth arc guide surface. Under the push of the baffle 4 and the constraint of the guide surface, the material achieves continuous sliding or guidance, rather than the baffle's filling-lifting-dumping process, which fundamentally reduces the spillage, impact and dispersion of the material at the turning point.
[0023] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the mixing component 5 includes a mounting shell 51 with a sliding hole. A connecting rod 52 is slidably installed in the sliding hole. A contact plate 53 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the connecting rod 52. A protective pad 54 is fixedly installed on the contact plate 53. A pressure plate 510 is fixedly installed on the end of the connecting rod 52 away from the contact plate 53. Several springs 511 are fixedly installed on the pressure plate 510. One end of the spring 511 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting shell 51, and the other end is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 510.
[0024] Furthermore, when the mixing component 5 starts working, the mounting shell 51 provides mounting support for the entire component. The connecting rod 52 is slidably installed through the sliding hole on the mounting shell 51. Once the mixing component 5 contacts the outer shell 3, the outer shell 3 applies downward pressure to the contact plate 53. The contact plate 53 drives the connecting rod 52, which is fixed at its bottom, to slide downward along the sliding hole. The connecting rod 52 drives the pressure plate 510, which is away from the contact plate 53, to move downward synchronously. The pressure plate 510 pushes several springs 511 that are fixedly connected to it. One end of the spring 511 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting shell 51, and the other end moves synchronously with the pressure plate 510 and undergoes elastic deformation, thereby providing reset power for subsequent mixing actions. The protective pad 54 on the contact plate 53 prevents the outer shell 3 from directly colliding with the contact plate 53 and causing damage.
[0025] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 4As shown, a fixed base 55 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting shell 51, a first flipping member 56 is rotatably installed on the fixed base 55, a connecting plate 57 is fixedly installed at the end of the first flipping member 56, a drive plate 58 is fixedly hinged to the end of the connecting plate 57 away from the first flipping member 56, and a mounting base 59 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the mounting shell 51, and the drive plate 58 is rotatably installed on the mounting base 59.
[0026] Furthermore, when the mixing component 5 performs the material turning action, the fixed seat 55 is fixed to the bottom of the mounting shell 51, providing mounting support for the first turning member 56. Once the pressure plate 510 moves downward and contacts the drive plate 58, the pressure plate 510 pushes the drive plate 58 to rotate around the mounting seat 59 fixed on the inner wall of the mounting shell 51. The drive plate 58 drives the connecting plate 57 hinged to it to swing synchronously. The connecting plate 57 pulls the first turning member 56 fixed at its end to rotate around the fixed seat 55. During the rotation of the first turning member 56, the heavy material in the baffle is turned over, realizing the secondary mixing of the material.
[0027] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 As shown, the drive plate 58 is L-shaped, with its longer section hinged to the connecting plate 57, and its shorter section located below the pressure plate 510.
[0028] Furthermore, when the drive plate 58 is pushed by the pressure plate 510, since the drive plate 58 has an L-shaped structure, its longer section is hinged to the connecting plate 57, and its shorter section is located below the pressure plate 510. Once the pressure plate 510 moves downward, the pressure plate 510 will precisely act on the shorter section of the drive plate 58, pushing the drive plate 58 to rotate around the mounting base 59. The longer section of the drive plate 58 simultaneously drives the connecting plate 57 to swing, and the connecting plate 57 pulls the first flipping member 56 to rotate. Through the force arm transmission of the L-shaped structure, the driving action is ensured to be smoother and less effort, ensuring the flipping effect. At the same time, when the curvature change is small, when the contact plate 53 moves a small amount, the first flipping member 56 can rotate a large angle to flip the heavy material at the bottom, so that the light material can be better mixed with the heavy material after falling.
[0029] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the contact plate 53 is in the shape of an inverted U, and the protective pad 54 is located on the flat section of the contact plate 53.
[0030] Furthermore, when the baffle carries the material through the mixing component 5, since the contact plate 53 has an inverted U-shaped structure with its flat section facing the inside of the outer shell 3, and the protective pad 54 is fixed to the flat section of the contact plate 53, once the outer shell 3 comes into contact with the contact plate 53, the inverted U-shaped contact plate 53 can increase the contact area with the outer shell 3, making the pressure applied by the outer shell 3 more uniform. The protective pad 54 directly contacts the inside of the outer shell 3, avoiding direct impact between the contact plate 53 and the outer shell 3, while reducing the friction between the outer shell 3 and the contact plate 53, ensuring that the material passes through smoothly.
[0031] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 As shown, a structure combining a first flipping member 56 and a second flipping member 512 can also be provided below the mounting shell 51. The first flipping member 56 and the second flipping member 512 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting shell 51.
[0032] Furthermore, when it is necessary to enhance the material mixing effect, a combination structure of the first flipping component 56 and the second flipping component 512 is adopted. The first flipping component 56 and the second flipping component 512 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the mounting shell 51. The movement of the rack 513 drives the first flipping component 56 and the second flipping component 512 to rotate synchronously. The two move symmetrically and flip the material from both sides of the mounting shell 51 at the same time, expanding the mixing range and improving the mixing uniformity, which is suitable for scenarios with higher requirements for mixing effect.
[0033] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 7 As shown, the first flipping member 56 includes a fixed rod 561, a plurality of flipping rods 562 are fixedly installed on the fixed rod 561, a fixed block 563 is fixedly installed on the fixed rod 561, a gear 564 is fixedly installed on the fixed block 563, and the gear 564 is rotatably installed on the fixed seat 55.
[0034] Furthermore, when the first flipping member 56 performs the flipping action, the fixed rod 561 provides mounting support for the flipping rod 562 and the fixed block 563. Several flipping rods 562 are evenly fixed on the fixed rod 561, and the fixed block 563 is fixed on the fixed rod 561. When the rack 513 moves, it will drive the gear 564 to rotate, thereby causing the first flipping member 56 and the second flipping member 512 to flip the material and improve the mixing effect.
[0035] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 As shown, when the first flipping member 56 and the second flipping member 512 are used together, the pressure plate 510 at the lower end of the connecting rod 52 is replaced by a rack 513, and the rack 513 meshes with the gear 564.
[0036] Furthermore, when the first flipper 56 and the second flipper 512 work together, the pressure plate 510 at the lower end of the connecting rod 52 is replaced by a rack 513, which meshes with the gears 564 on the first flipper 56 and the second flipper 512. Once the housing 3 pushes the contact plate 53 to move the connecting rod 52 downward, the connecting rod 52 drives the rack 513 to move downward synchronously. The rack 513 drives the gear 564 it meshes with to rotate, and the gear 564 drives the fixed rod 561 to rotate, thereby driving the first flipper 56 and the second flipper 512 to rotate synchronously in opposite directions, realizing all-round mixing of materials. The connecting rod 52 inside this type of mounting housing 51 is also equipped with a reset mechanism, similar to the spring 511 mentioned above, so it is not described in detail.
[0037] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, a discharge port 6 is fixedly installed on the mounting bracket 2.
[0038] Furthermore, when the equipment completes material conveying and the baffle 4 moves to the discharge position along the top horizontal section of the mounting frame 2, the discharge port 6 fixedly installed on the mounting frame 2 serves as a guide and unloading mechanism. Once the baffle 4 reaches the corresponding position of the discharge port 6, the material is discharged along the discharge port 6 under the action of its own gravity and the inertia of the baffle 4, achieving orderly unloading of the material and avoiding material leakage or uneven unloading.
[0039] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, the baffle 4 is a quarter circle in shape, and its arc segment faces the opposite direction of the moving direction.
[0040] Furthermore, as the baffle carries the material along the curvature gradient section of the mounting frame 2, the baffle 4, positioned within the mounting frame 2, is a quarter-circle in shape, with its arc-shaped section facing the opposite direction of the baffle's movement. Once the material shifts to one side of the baffle 4 due to inertia, it will first contact the arc-shaped section of the baffle 4. The arc-shaped section disperses the impact force of the material, preventing violent collisions between the material and the baffle 4, while simultaneously guiding the material to flow smoothly along the arc-shaped section, conforming to the baffle's movement trajectory and reducing material breakage and stratification.
[0041] Working Principle: When the equipment starts conveying materials, the user activates the drive unit, which drives the traction component to move. The traction component moves the baffle 4 along the mounting frame 2. The base 1 provides fixed support for the mounting frame 2. The mounting frame 2 provides a conveying path for the baffle 4 and materials. The outer shell 3 is fixed to the outside of the mounting frame 2 to achieve airtight protection. The mixing component 5 between adjacent baffles 4 cooperates with the outer shell 3. Once the baffle 4 carries the premixed material into the bend of the mounting frame 2, because the bend has a gradually decreasing curvature structure, the curvature of the mounting frame 2 gradually decreases as it moves from the vertical section to the horizontal section, and the baffle will transition smoothly, reducing material disturbance. At the same time, the outer shell... 3. The material comes into contact with the mixing component 5, which remixes the material in the curvature gradient section, thereby reducing the stratification of the material. Finally, the baffle 4 moves along the top horizontal section of the mounting frame 2 and completes the unloading, forming a complete conveying cycle. Because the curvature of this device changes gradually at the bend, the baffle commonly used in Z-type elevators is not used as the receiving component. Instead, the baffle 4 is selected as the receiving component. The baffle 4 can cooperate well with the smooth arc guide surface. Under the push of the baffle 4 and the constraint of the guide surface, the material achieves continuous sliding or guidance, rather than the baffle's filling-lifting-dumping process, which fundamentally reduces the spillage, impact and dispersion of the material at the turning point.
[0042] Crucially, when the mixing component 5 starts working, the mounting housing 51 provides mounting support for the entire component. The connecting rod 52 is slidably mounted through the sliding hole on the mounting housing 51. Once the mixing component 5 contacts the housing 3, the housing 3 applies downward pressure to the contact plate 53. The contact plate 53 drives the connecting rod 52, which is fixed at its bottom, to slide downward along the sliding hole. The connecting rod 52 drives the pressure plate 510, which is away from the contact plate 53, to move downward synchronously. The pressure plate 510 pushes several springs 511 that are fixedly connected to it. One end of the spring 511 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting housing 51, and the other end moves synchronously with the pressure plate 510 and undergoes elastic deformation, thereby providing reset power for subsequent mixing actions. The protective pad 54 on the contact plate 53 prevents the housing 3 from directly colliding with the contact plate 53 and causing damage.
[0043] When the mixing component 5 performs the material turning action, the fixed seat 55 is fixed to the bottom of the mounting shell 51, providing mounting support for the first turning member 56. Once the pressure plate 510 moves downward and contacts the drive plate 58, the pressure plate 510 pushes the drive plate 58 to rotate around the mounting seat 59 fixed on the inner wall of the mounting shell 51. The drive plate 58 drives the connecting plate 57 hinged to it to swing synchronously. The connecting plate 57 pulls the first turning member 56 fixed at its end to rotate around the fixed seat 55. During the rotation of the first turning member 56, the heavy material in the baffle is turned over, realizing the secondary mixing of the material.
[0044] In addition, when the drive plate 58 is pushed by the pressure plate 510, since the drive plate 58 has an L-shaped structure, its longer section is hinged to the connecting plate 57, and its shorter section is located below the pressure plate 510. Once the pressure plate 510 moves downward, the pressure plate 510 will precisely act on the shorter section of the drive plate 58, pushing the drive plate 58 to rotate around the mounting base 59. The longer section of the drive plate 58 simultaneously drives the connecting plate 57 to swing. The connecting plate 57 pulls the first flipping member 56 to rotate. Through the force arm transmission of the L-shaped structure, the driving action is ensured to be smoother and less effortless, ensuring the flipping effect. At the same time, when the curvature change is small, when the contact plate 53 moves a small range, the first flipping member 56 can rotate a large angle to flip the heavy material at the bottom, so that the light material can be better mixed with the heavy material after falling.
[0045] Finally, as the baffle carries the material along the curvature gradient section of the mounting frame 2, the baffle 4, positioned within the mounting frame 2, is a quarter-circle in shape, with its arc-shaped section facing the opposite direction of the baffle's movement. Once the material shifts to one side of the baffle 4 due to inertia, it will first contact the arc-shaped section of the baffle 4. The arc-shaped section disperses the impact force of the material, preventing violent collisions between the material and the baffle 4, while simultaneously guiding the material to flow smoothly along the arc-shaped section, conforming to the baffle's movement trajectory and reducing material breakage and stratification.
[0046] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it.
