[0041] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a conveyor cleaner described in the utility model cleans the residual materials on the conveyor 5 by means of air discharge.

[0042] The cleaner comprises an air knife cleaning structure 1 and a knife edge cleaning structure 2.

[0043] An air outlet 13 is provided at one end of the wind knife cleaning structure 1 for blowing air outwards to generate a concentrated airflow, effectively blowing away dust, debris and stubborn dirt attached to the conveyor belt of the conveyor 5, thereby extending the service life of the conveyor 5. The knife-edge cleaning structure 2 is provided at the air outlet 13 of the wind knife cleaning structure 1, and is used to clean the wire scraps at the air outlet 13, thereby preventing the situation in which the air outlet 13 of the traditional wind-type cleaner is blocked by debris, further improving the cleaning efficiency and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0044] The blade cleaning structure 2 includes a cleaning member 21 and a driving unit 22. The cleaning member 21 is movably disposed at the air outlet 13 of the cleaner. The driving unit 22 is in transmission connection with the cleaning member 21, and is used to drive the cleaning member 21 to move and clean the air outlet 13.

[0045] In the cleaner of the conveyor 5 of the utility model, a cleaning piece 21 and a driving roller unit are arranged, and the driving unit 22 drives the cleaning piece 21 to move to a proper position of the air outlet 13. While effectively cleaning the conveyor belt 52 of the conveyor 5, the residue at the air outlet 13 can be cleaned timely and effectively, thereby enhancing the cleaning effect and preventing the air outlet 13 from being blocked, thereby improving work efficiency. The cleaner can be cleaned regularly to ensure the normal operation of the cleaner and the conveyor 5, reduce failures and maintenance, and improve production efficiency.

[0046] Preferably, an adjustment structure 14 is installed on the outer side of the air outlet 13 for adjusting the size of the air outlet 13. The size of the air outlet 13 can be adjusted at any time to suit different cleaning scenarios.

[0047] Specifically, the adjustment structure 14 can be several adjustment screws that can tighten the air outlet 13. By tightening the screws, the size of the air outlet 13 can be adjusted, which can simply and effectively adapt to the needs of different industrial environments and provide a stable and efficient cleaning effect, thereby significantly improving the cleanliness and work efficiency of the production line. The simple operation and quick response of the adjustment structure 14 greatly reduce the work pressure of maintenance personnel and improve the efficiency of cleaning operations.

[0048] Furthermore, the air outlet 13 of the cleaner has a certain extension length, and the cleaning element 21 is movably arranged along the extension length direction of the air outlet 13. By moving along the length direction, it can ensure that the cleaning covers the entire area of ​​the air outlet 13, effectively remove residues, avoid clogging the air outlet 13, and improve cleaning efficiency.

[0049] The cleaning member 21 moves back and forth on the air knife cleaning structure 1, and can perform cleaning operations continuously and uninterruptedly, ensuring that the equipment remains clean during operation and reducing maintenance and downtime.

[0050] The air outlet 13 may also be in a strip shape, a ring shape, an arc shape, etc., and the cleaning member 21 may be movably arranged along the above shape.

[0051] Furthermore, the cleaner has a certain extended length, and has a high-pressure air chamber 12 extending along the length direction inside, and the air inlet 11 and the air outlet 13 of the cleaner are respectively connected to the high-pressure air chamber 12.

[0052] An air inlet 11 is provided at one end of the high-pressure air chamber 12 in the length extension direction, and the air outlet 13 is extended along the length direction and connected to the high-pressure air chamber 12 to effectively concentrate and accelerate the airflow inside the cleaner, thereby forming a strong airflow at the air outlet 13.

[0053] The integrated connection structure can tightly combine the various components of the air knife cleaning structure 1, improve the airtightness, stability and durability of the equipment, ensure that the high-pressure airflow can be effectively delivered to the target area, and improve the cleaning efficiency.

[0054] Furthermore, the cleaning member 21 is an annular structure, which is movably mounted on the periphery of the air knife cleaning structure 1 in the length extension direction. A brush 211 is provided at the end of the cleaning member 21 opposite to the air outlet 13 for moving and cleaning the air outlet 13.

[0055] The annular structure of the cleaning piece 21 not only increases the cleaning range, but also enables the cleaning piece 21 to move freely in the length direction of the wind knife cleaning structure 1, ensuring the comprehensiveness and efficiency of the cleaning work. At the same time, the annular cleaning piece 21 can move to cover the entire length of the wind knife cleaning structure 1, ensuring that the brush 211 can comprehensively clean the entire air outlet 13, avoiding dead corners and omissions, providing a more stable cleaning effect, and not prone to shaking or instability, ensuring the consistency of the cleaning effect, and being able to complete the cleaning of the entire air outlet 13 in one action, and being able to evenly apply cleaning force to avoid excessive local cleaning and insufficient cleaning of other parts.

[0056] Specifically, the brush 211 is a fine-bristled brush, which can effectively avoid the wear of the air outlet 13 caused by friction and extend the service life of the device. The brush 211 can be located at the air outlet 13 or extend into the air outlet 13.

[0057] The close connection between the brush 211 and the cleaning member 21 can ensure that the brush 211 is firmly fixed on the cleaning device to avoid falling off or shifting during the cleaning process.

[0058] The other end of the cleaning member 21 opposite to the air outlet 13 is transmission-connected to the driving unit 22, which can keep the cleaning member 21 moving stably, avoid the cleaning member 21 from tilting, and facilitate driving the cleaning member 21 to move.

[0059] Furthermore, the driving unit 22 includes two rotating wheels, a driving belt 223 and a driving motor 224 .

[0060] The two rotating wheels are respectively a driving rotating wheel 222 and a driven rotating wheel 221, which are respectively located outside the two ends of the extension direction of the entire air knife cleaning structure 1. The driving belt 223 is rotatably sleeved outside the two rotating wheels for fixing with the cleaning member 21. The driving motor 224 is connected to the driving rotating wheel 222 for driving the driving rotating wheel 222 to drive the belt to rotate.

[0061] The driving motor 224 drives the active rotating wheel 222 to rotate, driving the driving belt 223 and the driven rotating wheel 221 to rotate, thereby driving the cleaning member 21 fixed to the driving belt 223, so that the cleaning member 21 moves toward the active rotating wheel 222.

[0062] There is a certain interval between the cleaning member 21 and the air knife cleaning structure 1, and part of the driving unit 22 is arranged in the interval. Specifically, the driven wheels 221 and 221 are arranged in the interval so that the cleaning member 21 can completely move from one end to the other end, so as to completely clean the entire length of the air knife cleaning structure 1.

[0063] Furthermore, a fixing buckle 212 is provided on the inner wall ring opposite to the other end of the cleaning member 21 and the brush 211, and the driving belt 223 is fixedly connected to the fixing buckle 212. The setting position is clever and the occupied volume is small, thereby achieving the fixation of the driving belt 223 and the cleaning member 21.

[0064] Preferably, the fixing buckle 212 is connected with the cleaning member 21 to form a receiving space, and the driving belt 223 is fixed in the receiving space. The fixing buckle 212 has a through opening, which is connected to the receiving space to facilitate the installation of the driving belt 223 into the receiving space.

[0065] The driven rotating wheel 221 is located between the other end of the air knife cleaning structure 1 and the fixing buckle 212 .

[0066] The cleaner further comprises a protective shell 3 having an inwardly recessed groove for protecting the driving unit 22 from being polluted by impurities in the air and from being bumped by other structures.

[0067] The driving wheel 222, the driven wheel 221 and the driving belt 223 of the driving unit 22 are arranged in the groove. The driving wheel 222 and the driven wheel 221 are rotatably arranged on the opposite side walls of the groove, and the driving belt 223 is located in the groove.

[0068] Further, at least part of the driving unit 22 is disposed in the groove. The end of the protective shell 3 opposite to the groove, that is, the bottom end of the groove is fixed to the other end of the wind knife cleaning structure 1, and is located in the gap between the cleaning member 21 and the other end of the wind knife cleaning structure 1.

[0069] There is a certain distance between the inner annular wall of the cleaning member 21 and the outer wall of the protective shell 3, so that the cleaning member 21 can smoothly reciprocate along the length direction.

[0070] The protective shell 3 is a metal shell that safely wraps the driving unit 22 inside, effectively preventing the intrusion of external pollutants, so that the cleaner can maintain stable operation even in a harsh working environment.

[0071] Furthermore, the cleaning member 21 and the protective shell 3 are provided with a limit contactor 225 and a limit switch 226 respectively, so that when the cleaning member 21 moves to one end of the active rotating wheel 222, the limit contactor 225 contacts the limit switch 226, and the driving unit 22 drives the cleaning member 21 to move in the opposite direction, so that the moving range of the cleaning member 21 is effectively controlled, thereby preventing equipment damage and accidents.

[0072] Specifically, when the driving unit 22 drives the cleaning member 21 to move to one end of the active rotating wheel 222, the limit contactor 225 moves to contact the limit switch 226, triggering the limit switch 226, so that the driving unit 22 drives the cleaning member 21 to move in the reverse direction for cleaning.

[0073] Furthermore, a support frame 4 is provided at the opposite end of the protective shell 3 and the wind knife cleaning structure 1 for fixing the cleaner so that the cleaner can be firmly fixed at the position that needs to be cleaned.

[0074] The support frame 4 is provided with a mounting portion 51 for fixing on the conveyor 5, so that the cleaner can be firmly fixed on the conveyor 5. The design of the support frame 4 takes into account the adaptability of different types of conveyors, ensuring that the cleaner can operate stably under various working conditions and providing efficient and reliable cleaning effects.

[0075] The utility model also provides a conveyor 5 having any one of the above-mentioned cleaners.

[0076] The conveyor 5 includes a conveyor belt 52 and a driving roller 53 for transporting materials, and is used to transport materials that need to be transported.

[0077] The conveyor belt 52 is rotatably wound around the driving roller 53, and the air outlet 13 of the cleaner is directed toward the conveyor belt 52 at the driving roller 53, so as to clean the residual impurities, materials and other wastes on the conveyor belt.

[0078] The cleaner is disposed below the conveyor 5 , and the air outlet 13 is disposed obliquely upward toward the conveyor belt 52 .

[0079] Furthermore, a collecting bucket 54 is installed in the direction of the impurities purged by the cleaner to collect the impurities purged. The collecting bucket 54 is in an inverted trapezoidal shape, and the upper end of the trapezoidal mouth is wider, which is convenient for collection, reduces the possibility of impurities overflowing and splashing, and is convenient for cleaning, reduces the possibility of pollutant diffusion, keeps the equipment environment clean, reduces cleaning time, and improves work efficiency.
