Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of screw conveyors, in particular to a screw conveyor transmission system with a bearing protection mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Screw conveyor is a machine that uses a motor to drive the screw to rotate and push the material to achieve the purpose of conveying. It can convey horizontally, obliquely or vertically, and has the advantages of simple structure, small cross-sectional area, good sealing, convenient operation, easy maintenance, and convenient closed transportation. Screw conveyors are divided into two types of conveying forms: shaft screw conveyors and shaftless screw conveyors, and are divided into U-shaped screw conveyors and tubular screw conveyors in appearance. Shaft screw conveyors are suitable for non-sticky dry powder materials and small particle materials, while shaftless screw conveyors are suitable for conveyors with sticky and easily entangled materials. The working principle of the screw conveyor is that the rotating spiral blades push the material to be conveyed by the screw conveyor. The force that prevents the material from rotating with the screw conveyor blades is the weight of the material itself and the friction resistance of the screw conveyor casing to the material. The spiral blades welded on the rotating shaft of the screw conveyor have different surface shapes, such as solid surface, belt surface, and blade surface, depending on the different conveyed materials. The screw shaft of the screw conveyor has a thrust bearing at the end of the material movement direction to provide axial reaction force to the screw along with the material. When the machine is long, an intermediate hanging bearing should be added.

[0003] When the screw shaft rotates, due to the gravity of the material and the friction between the material and the trough wall, the material can only move forward along the bottom of the conveyor trough under the push of the blades, which is like a non-rotating nut moving in translation along the rotating screw. The movement of the material in the middle bearing depends on the thrust of the material moving forward from behind. Therefore, the transportation of materials in the conveyor is completely a sliding movement. When the spiral blades are conveying powder, the loose contact between the spiral blades and the channel pipe will cause the powder to be missed during transportation, resulting in waste. In addition, the transportation of powder will cause the rotating parts to be damaged by the powder, which will increase the frequency of replacing the bearings at the rotating connection.

The fixing plate 308 is fixedly installed on the left end of the mounting tube 4, and the second clip 307 is clamped with the fixing plate 308. The outer wall of the second clip 307 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting tube 4.

The left and right ends of the first transmission shaft 203 and the second transmission shaft 204 respectively penetrate the left and right ends of the gear box 1 and The third bearing is rotatably connected to the gear box 1. The number of the second speed gear 205 and the first speed gear 206 are both two. The two second speed gears 205 and the first speed gear 206 are arranged side by side on the left and right. The two second speed gears 205 are fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the first transmission shaft 203.

The output shaft 207 passes through the right end of the gear box 1 and extends to the inner wall of the gear box 1. The output gear 208 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the second transmission shaft 204. The outer wall of the output end, the left first speed gear 206 is arranged on the right side of the left second speed gear 205, and the right first speed gear 206 and the second speed gear 205 are both meshed with the output gear 208. The number of teeth of the first speed gear 206 is greater than the number of teeth of the second speed gear 205. The speed change function can be achieved by setting the first speed gear 206 and the second speed gear 205 with different numbers of teeth. The outer wall of the output shaft 207 is fixedly connected with a mounting rod, and the output shaft 207 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 304 through the mounting rod. The output shaft 207 is rotatably connected to the second buckle 307 through the first bearing, and the spiral blade 303 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the output shaft 207. The speed of the output shaft 207 can be changed without replacing the motor through the speed change mechanism 2, so that different speeds can be used when conveying different materials. The input shaft 201 is connected to the gear box 1 through a spline, and the input shaft 201 can be moved left and right, so that the input gear 202 can be meshed with the second speed gear 205 or the first speed gear 206 for transmission.

[0026] When in use, the right end of the input shaft 201 of the transmission system is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, and the transmission system is installed at the required position. The motor rotates to drive the input shaft 201, and the input shaft 201 drives the input gear 202 to rotate. The input gear 202 drives the second speed gear 205 on the left to rotate. The second speed gear 205 drives the first transmission shaft 203. The first transmission shaft 203 drives the second speed gear 205 on the right. The second speed gear 205 on the right drives the output gear 208, and the output shaft 207 is driven to rotate through the output gear 208. When the speed needs to be changed, the input shaft 201 is pushed to the right, and the input shaft 201 is rotated to make the input gear 202 mesh with the first speed gear 206 on the left. The motor is started, and the input gear 202 drives the first speed gear 206 on the left to rotate. The second transmission shaft 204 drives the output gear 208 to rotate through the first speed gear 206 on the right. By setting the speed gear, the speed of the output shaft 207 can be changed without changing the motor, so that the conveying speed can be adjusted, which is convenient for conveying various items.

[0027] Combine the slide groove on the inner wall of the auxiliary sleeve 301 with the slider on the outer wall of the spiral blade 303, put the block 302 into the groove on the inner wall of the mounting tube 4 and the outer wall of the auxiliary sleeve 301, rotate the output shaft 207, and the output shaft 207 drives the spiral blade 303 to rotate. Since the position of the auxiliary sleeve 301 is restricted by the block 302, it cannot rotate. The auxiliary sleeve 301 converts the rotation into lateral movement. The slider is combined with the slide groove. After the right wall of the auxiliary sleeve 301 is flush with the right wall of the mounting tube 4, stop rotating the output shaft 207, take out the block 302, and the output shaft 207 rotates through the spiral blade 303 to drive the auxiliary sleeve 301 to rotate. The sleeve 301 rotates, and the material enters the auxiliary sleeve 301 through the mounting tube 4 and the feed port opened on the top of the auxiliary sleeve 301. Since the powder will cause damage to the bearings at the rotating connection, the output shaft 207 rotates to drive the cover plate 304 to rotate. The cover plate 304 is clamped to facilitate the output shaft 207 to drive, and the first buckle 305 and the second buckle 307 rotate through the ball 306. While the cover plate 304 is sealed, it can also be more convenient to rotate through the roller and the second buckle 307. The second buckle 307 is fixedly connected to the mounting tube 4 through the fixing plate 308, which effectively prevents the powder from accidentally penetrating into the rotating part during transportation.
