[0025] refer to Figures 1 to 5 A screw conveying device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below. The screw conveying device includes a supporting body 10, a mounting mechanism 20 and a conveying mechanism 30.

[0026] The mounting mechanism 20 is fixedly mounted on the supporting body 10. The mounting mechanism 20 has a first end 2001 and a second end 2002, wherein the first end 2001 is located at a higher level than the second end 2002, and at least a portion of the mounting mechanism 20 extends upward in a spiral. The conveying mechanism 30 includes a conveying member 31. The mounting mechanism 20 forms a sliding groove 2003 on both upper and lower sides, and the sliding groove 2003 allows the conveying member 31 to pass through. In this way, an object can be placed on the upper surface of the conveying member 31, and the conveying mechanism 30 can convey the object in a spiral upward or spiral downward direction along the extension direction of the mounting mechanism 20.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the spiral conveying device can meet the needs of conveying items from top to bottom or from bottom to top, and can also make full use of the vertical space, thereby reducing the use of horizontal space and saving the installation space required for the equipment.

[0028] Specifically, the support body 10 includes at least one vertical support member 11 and at least one horizontal support member 12. The vertical support member 11 extends in the vertical direction, and the horizontal support member 12 is mounted on the vertical support member 11 and extends in the horizontal direction. The mounting mechanism 20 is fixedly mounted on the horizontal support member 12, so that the support body 10 provides a supporting force for the mounting mechanism 20.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of the horizontal support members 12 are provided, and the plurality of the horizontal support members 12 are installed at intervals on the vertical support member 11, so that the support body 10 can provide a plurality of support sites for the installation mechanism 20, so that a stable connection is formed between the two.

[0030] It is worth mentioning that the plurality of horizontal support members 12 are arranged at different levels at intervals, thereby ensuring the stability of the object transportation.

[0031] Preferably, the support body 10 further includes a base 13. The base 13 is installed at the bottom of the vertical support member 11. It is worth mentioning that the base 13 has a preset weight, thereby lowering the center of gravity of the screw conveying device so that the screw conveying device can be stably placed on the ground.

[0032] Specifically, the mounting mechanism 20 includes a first mounting component 21. The first mounting component 21 includes two stoppers 211 and a connecting member 212. The two stoppers 211 are arranged opposite to each other, and the stoppers 211 extend upward in a spiral. The connecting member 212 is arranged between the two stoppers 211 and is used to connect the two stoppers 211. The stoppers 211 and the connecting member 212 together form the sliding groove 2003.

[0033] In one embodiment, the two stoppers 211 and the connecting member 212 are integrally formed.

[0034] As a deformable form, the connecting member 212 is detachably installed between the two stoppers 211 .

[0035] Specifically, the connecting member 212 includes two connecting parts 2121 and an assembly structure 2122. The two connecting parts 2121 together form a mounting groove 212101 with an adjustable radial size on one side facing the stopper 211. The assembly structure 2122 is detachably mounted between the two connecting parts 2121 in a manner capable of adjusting the radial size of the mounting groove 212101. The stopper 211 forms an assembly protrusion 2111 on one side facing the connecting member 212, and the assembly protrusion 2111 is detachably mounted in the mounting groove 212101. That is, when the radial direction of the mounting groove 212101 is increased, the assembly protrusion 2111 can be mounted in the mounting groove 212101, and then the assembly structure 2122 locks the two connecting parts 2121 to reduce the radial direction of the mounting groove 212101, so that the stopper 211 and the connecting member 212 are firmly connected.

[0036] In one embodiment, the assembly structure 2122 includes a bolt and a threaded hole formed in the two connecting parts 2121. The bolt is screwed into and out of the threaded hole to disassemble and assemble the two connecting parts 2121.

[0037] As a variant, the assembly structure 2122 includes a screw 21221, a through hole 21222 formed in the two connecting parts 2121, and a nut 21223. The screw 21221 passes through the through hole 21222 and is configured to be screwed into and out of the nut 21223 to disassemble and assemble the two connecting parts 2121.

[0038] It is understandable that the staff can replace the connecting member 212 of different specifications according to the needs to adjust the width of the sliding groove 2003. The larger the width of the connecting member 212, that is, the larger the width of the sliding groove 2003, the spiral conveying device can be used to convey wider objects.

[0039] It is worth mentioning that the mounting mechanism 20 is made of aluminum alloy material, which meets the predetermined strength while reducing the overall weight of the mounting mechanism 20 .

[0040] Preferably, the two connecting portions 2121 together form a communication port 212102 communicating with the mounting groove 212101 on one side facing the stopper 211. The radial size of the mounting groove 212101 gradually decreases along the direction extending toward the communication port 212102. The width of the assembly protrusion 2111 gradually increases in the direction extending from the stopper 211 toward the connecting member 212, so that when the assembly structure 2122 locks the two connecting portions 2121, the assembly protrusion 2111 can be stably inserted into the mounting groove 212101, and the assembly protrusion 2111 is difficult to be separated from the mounting groove 212101.

[0041] As a preferred embodiment, the vertical support member 11 is coaxially arranged with the first mounting member 21, thereby reducing the radial space of the screw conveying device, and the structure is compact and occupies a small area.

[0042] Preferably, the screw conveying device further comprises a transition installation component 22. The transition installation component 22 is connected to the end of the first installation component 21, and the transition installation component 22 extends in the horizontal direction to provide a transition buffer for the conveyed articles.

[0043] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism 30 further includes a driving mechanism 32 , and the conveying member 31 is drivingly connected to the driving mechanism 32 .

[0044] In one example, the driving mechanism 32 is implemented to include a motor.

[0045] Furthermore, the screw conveying device also includes a plurality of rollers 40 .

[0046] The plurality of rollers 40 are mounted on the bottom wall of the base 13 so as to move the screw conveying device as a whole.

[0047] It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are only examples and do not limit the present invention. The advantages of the present invention have been fully and effectively realized. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been demonstrated and explained in the embodiments, and the embodiments of the present invention may be deformed or modified in any way without departing from the principles.
