In the case of long conveying distance, multi-stage screw conveyors are specifically used. The upper screw conveyor and the lower screw conveyor are connected through a closed connection box. Due to the complexity of the materials, solid materials such as large pieces of vegetable leaves, plastics, branches, etc. are easily unstable in the conveying capacity of the screw conveyor.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The following is combined with Figure 1-2 This application is described in further detail.
[0020] The embodiment of the present application discloses a congestion warning device.
[0021] Reference Figure 1 The blockage warning device includes a first screw conveyor 1 and a second screw conveyor 2. A connecting box 3 is installed between the first screw conveyor 1 and the second screw conveyor 2. The connecting box 3 is connected to the discharge port of the first screw conveyor 1 and the feed port of the second screw conveyor 2. An elastic plate 4 is arranged on the inner box wall of the connecting box 3 facing the discharge port of the first screw conveyor 1. The elastic plate 4 in the embodiment of the present application can be made of a metal material with good elastic properties. The elastic plate 4 is inclined toward the discharge port of the first screw conveyor 1, and the solid material is located between the elastic plate 4 and the discharge port of the first screw conveyor 1. An observation hole 5 is provided on the connecting box 3. An observation rod 6 arranged perpendicular to the elastic plate 4 is fixedly connected to the surface of the elastic plate 4 facing away from the first screw conveyor 1. The observation rod 6 passes through the observation hole 5 and partially extends out of the connecting box 3.
[0022] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The outer edge of the observation rod 6 is provided with a plurality of marking areas 9 in sequence along the length direction of the observation rod 6. In the embodiment of the present application, three marking areas 9 can be set, and the three marking areas 9 can be set to different colors respectively. The three marking areas 9 can also be engraved with different numbers, which is convenient for the operator to observe the marking area 9 from the outside and intuitively observe that the observation hole 5 is located in the marking area 9 on the observation rod 6, thereby inferring the accumulation of garbage in the connection box 3.
[0023] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2, a disc 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the observation rod 6 facing away from the elastic plate 4. In the embodiment of the present application, the disc 10 can be made of a transparent material, such as acrylic material. The transparent disc 10 can reduce the obstruction of the observation rod 6. The disc 10 plays a limiting role, reducing the possibility of the observation rod 6 being offset, and improving the stability of the placement of the observation rod 6. At the same time, the disc 10 can block some raindrops from falling into the observation hole 5, reducing the possibility of the garbage in the connection box 3 being damp and corrupted. An annular sealing gasket 11 is bonded to the hole wall of the observation hole 5. In the embodiment of the present application, the annular sealing gasket 11 can be made of rubber material. The annular sealing gasket 11 is pressed tightly between the observation rod 6 and the observation hole 5 to play a sealing role, reducing external water vapor and dust from falling into the connection box 3, and at the same time reducing the possibility of odor escaping from the connection box 3, so as to achieve the overall fully enclosed transportation of solid material garbage.
[0024] Reference Figure 1 , the two side edges of the elastic plate 4 are in contact with the two inner box walls of the connection box 3 respectively, and the inner area of the connection box 3 is divided by the elastic plate 4 into a drop area 7 located between the elastic plate 4 and the first screw conveyor 1 and a detection area 8 located between the elastic plate 4 and the observation hole 5. In the embodiment of the present application, one end of the elastic plate 4 close to the first screw conveyor 1 extends to the top of the discharge port of the first screw conveyor 1, reducing the possibility of solid materials accidentally entering the detection area 8 when falling from the first screw conveyor 1 into the connection box 3, causing garbage jams, and facilitating the subsequent cleaning and maintenance of the connection box 3.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 A sensing rod 13 is installed on the surface of the elastic plate 4 facing the observation hole 5, and a trigger 14 corresponding to the sensing rod 13 is arranged on the inner wall of the connection box 3. In the embodiment of the present application, the trigger 14 can adopt a pressure sensor or a button sensor. Therefore, when the solid material garbage in the blanking area 7 is accumulated to be about to be full, the elastic plate 4 is deformed by the force and drives the sensing rod 13 to resist the trigger 14, so that the trigger 14 feeds back an alarm signal to the control terminal, so that the operator can solve the blockage problem of the connection box 3 in time, thereby improving the continuity and production efficiency of garbage treatment.
[0026] Reference Figure 1, an elastic member is arranged on the surface of the elastic plate 4 facing the observation hole 5, and the elastic member includes two compression springs 12 respectively arranged on the elastic plate 4, and the ends of the two compression springs 12 facing away from the elastic plate 4 are connected to the inner box wall of the connection box 3. The two compression springs 12 in the embodiment of the present application are respectively located on both sides of the observation rod 6. Therefore, the compression spring 12 supports the elastic plate 4 and improves the stability of the placement of the elastic plate 4. The compression spring 12 has a strong elastic deformation ability, and when subjected to external pressure from the elastic plate 4, it can be compressed and deformed and store energy. When the external pressure of the elastic plate 4 disappears, the compression spring 12 will release the stored energy and return to its original form, so that the compression spring 12 can act as a buffer element in the connection box 3, absorb and release energy, and facilitate the resetting of the elastic plate 4.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 , the end of the elastic plate 4 facing the first screw conveyor 1 is connected to a flexible belt 15 that matches the size of the elastic plate 4. The flexible belt 15 can be a cloth belt. The flexible belt 15 is located at the top of the detection area 8, and the end of the flexible belt 15 away from the elastic plate 4 is connected to the end face of the connecting box 3 facing the outlet end of the first screw conveyor 1, so that the detection area 8 forms a relatively closed space, reducing the solid material from accidentally entering the detection area 8 when falling from the first screw conveyor 1 into the connecting box 3. The related technology uses cameras, radars, voice-controlled sensors and other measures to monitor the material position in the connecting box 3. Due to the large amount of volatile substances in the garbage transportation process, the sensor will malfunction or fail for a long time. In the present application document, the trigger 14 and the sensing rod 13 are centrally arranged in the detection area 8, which reduces the impact of material volatilization on the equipment and improves the service life of the trigger 14.
[0028] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: solid materials fall into the connecting box 3 from the discharge port of the first screw conveyor 1. When the materials in the connecting box 3 are accumulated, the accumulated materials squeeze the elastic plate 4, providing a force on the elastic plate 4 to cause the elastic plate 4 to deform under the force, thereby pushing the observation rod 6 on the elastic plate 4 to pass through the observation hole 5 and partially extend out of the connecting box 3. The operator can judge the degree of blockage of the solid materials in the connecting box 3 by observing the degree to which the observation rod 6 extends out of the connecting box 3 from the outside, which is convenient for the operator to adjust the conveying capacity of the first screw conveyor 1 and the second screw conveyor 2, and then promptly solve the blockage problem of the connecting box 3, thereby improving the continuity and production efficiency of garbage disposal.
