Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of elevators, and particularly relates to a plate chain bucket elevator with double motors. Background Art
[0002] A plate chain elevator is a device widely used for vertically lifting materials, especially suitable for medium-sized and large-sized materials with abrasiveness. It adopts self-flow feeding and gravity discharging, has high production capacity, low energy consumption, excellent sealing performance, less environmental pollution, and meets environmental protection requirements. It consists of parts such as a motor, a reducer, a chain, a plate chain, a hopper, and a frame. The working principle is that the motor drives the chain through the reducer, and the chain drives the plate chain and the hopper to move upward together to lift the material to the required height.
[0003] The Chinese patent document with the publication number CN212638800U discloses a plastic mixing elevator, which includes a feeding part. The left side of the feeding part is communicated with a conveying pipeline. A conveying mechanism is arranged inside the conveying pipeline. The top of the conveying pipeline is fixedly connected with a discharging part. The conveying mechanism includes two motor frames. Motors are fixedly installed on the motor frames. The top inside the conveying pipeline is rotatably installed with two driving drums through two bearings respectively. The bottom inside the conveying pipeline is fixedly connected with two driven drums through a driven shaft. A conveyor belt is sleeved outside the driving drums and the driven drums. A plurality of conveying hoppers are fixedly connected to the outside of the conveyor belt. In this plastic mixing elevator, by arranging the conveying mechanism, the simultaneous conveying of two materials can be realized. Compared with the traditional single-material conveying, for the materials that need to be mixed, the working process is simplified and the working efficiency is improved.
[0004] In the above patent solution, the motors are directly installed on the elevator in a fixed manner, and the vibration of the motors will be directly transmitted to the main body structure of the elevator, which is extremely easy to cause stress concentration and result in metal fatigue damage. Especially when two motors are provided, the vibration will intensify, and at the same time, the vibration frequencies of the two motors will be superimposed, and the phenomena and hazards of stress concentration and metal fatigue will be more obvious and serious. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] In order to overcome the technical problem that in the prior art, for the two motors fixedly arranged on the elevator, the vibration generated is transmitted to the main body structure, which will cause stress concentration and then cause metal fatigue and damage; an object of the present utility model is to provide a plate chain bucket elevator with double motors. By arranging a support arm between the mounting rod for mounting the motor and the main body structure, and adopting a rotational connection mode at both ends of the support arm, the transmission effect of vibration is reduced, thereby avoiding causing metal fatigue.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present utility model adopts the following technical solutions: A plate chain bucket elevator with dual motors, including a sheet metal housing, wherein a lifting chain is rotatably connected inside the sheet metal housing; a cross bar, which is arranged at the upper part of the sheet metal housing; mounting rods, there are two mounting rods and they are respectively located on both sides of the sheet metal housing, and one end of each mounting rod is arranged on the cross bar; motors, there are two motors and they are respectively installed on the corresponding mounting rods, and the two motors are respectively in transmission connection with the lifting chain; wherein, a support arm is arranged between the mounting rod and the cross bar; both ends of the support arm are respectively rotatably connected with the cross bar and the mounting rod; the two rotating shafts of the support arm are parallel and non-coincident with the rotating shaft of the lifting chain.
[0007] The support arm fixes the mounting rod in a soft support manner, and the vibration generated by the motor is attenuated when passing through the support arm, thereby reducing the vibration transmission effect on the main structure; at the same time, the occurrence of stress concentration and metal fatigue phenomena is also avoided.
[0008] Further, mounting seats are respectively rotatably connected to both ends of the support arm; the mounting seats are installed on the mounting rod or the cross bar; a rectangular block is arranged at one end of the mounting seat facing the support arm; a locking screw for restricting the rotation of the rectangular block is detachably connected to the support arm.
[0009] Although the support arm can reduce the vibration transmission, during the assembly process of the elevator, due to the rotational connection relationship, it is not easy to position and adjust the position of the screw holes. Especially for heavy-duty motors, they are often hoisted, and the position is not easy to adjust. Therefore, during assembly, the locking screw restricts the rotation of the rectangular block, that is, restricts the degree of freedom of the support arm, which is convenient for the installation of the support arm. After the installation is completed, removing the locking screw will improve the installation convenience.
[0010] Specifically, rotating holes for rotatably connecting with the rectangular block are respectively arranged at both ends of the support arm; stop holes are respectively arranged on both sides of the rotating hole on the support arm; the connection line of the rotating hole and the two stop holes on its both sides is perpendicular to the length direction of the support arm; the locking screw can be selectively located in the corresponding stop hole and abuts against the outer wall of the rectangular block.
[0011] When the locking screw abuts against the outer wall of the rectangular block, the mounting seat can still rotate within a small angle range, which is convenient for aligning the upper mounting hole of the mounting seat with the cross bar or the mounting rod.
[0012] Specifically, the locking screw can be selectively used to install the mounting seat on the mounting rod or the cross bar.
[0013] When assembling, removing the locking screw for installing the mounting seat can avoid the situation of forgetting to remove the locking screw, improving safety.
[0014] Further, the support arm includes two connecting plates and at least one rib plate disposed in the middle between the two connecting plates; the rectangular block is located between the two connecting plates.
[0015] Specifically, there are three rib plates, namely a central plate disposed along the length direction of the support arm and two limiting plates respectively located on both sides of the central plate; the rectangular block can optionally abut against the limiting plate.
[0016] When the rotation angle of the mounting seat and the support arm is too large, the rectangular block abuts against the limiting plate, restricting further rotation and improving safety. For example, when the input shaft of the lifting chain is being debugged, installed or breaks due to an accident, the mounting rod will not rotate at a large angle, causing the motor or gearbox to be thrown out or fall off.
[0017] Preferably, at least two fine-tuning threaded plates are provided on the mounting rod; the motor is disposed between the two fine-tuning threaded plates; a fine-tuning screw is threadedly connected to the fine-tuning threaded plate; the end of the fine-tuning screw abuts against the base of the motor.
[0018] By rotating the fine-tuning screw, the position of the motor is adjusted, extending the adjustment torque, that is, playing a lever role, facilitating fine-tuning of the position of the motor.
[0019] Further, a lower sprocket is longitudinally slidably connected to the lower part of the sheet metal housing; the lifting chain is drivingly connected to the lower sprocket; a counterweight is longitudinally slidably connected to the lower part of the sheet metal housing; the counterweight is disposed above the lower sprocket.
[0020] Specifically, two swing arms are symmetrically provided at the lower part of the sheet metal housing; one end of the swing arm is rotatably connected to the sheet metal housing; a synchronous groove is provided along the length direction at the other end of the swing arm; synchronous rods are respectively provided at both ends of the counterweight and are slidably connected to the corresponding synchronous grooves.
[0021] Specifically, screws are respectively provided at both ends of the lower sprocket; adjusting nuts are respectively provided at the upper and lower ends of the synchronous rod on the counterweight; the adjusting nuts are threadedly connected to the screws.
[0022] The counterweight presses down on the lower sprocket under the action of gravity to play a tensioning role. The two swing arms balance and adjust the two ends of the counterweight, so that the counterweight acts on the two ends of the lower sprocket in a horizontal posture, preventing the lifting chain from running off track during operation. And for the unequal acting forces on the two ends of the lower sprocket, fine adjustment can be carried out through the adjusting nut.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0024] 1. By providing a support arm rotatably connected to the motor base and the main structure at both ends, the transmission effect of the motor vibration to the main structure is reduced, avoiding stress concentration and metal fatigue; especially for a hoist with a dual-motor structure, the failure rate can be effectively reduced and the service life can be significantly improved.
[0025] 2. The locking screws provided between the support arm and the mounting seat can limit the rotation between the support arm and the mounting seat during assembly, facilitating assembly and fixing; and can also be used to fix the mounting seat after removing the locking screws, preventing the situation of forgetting to remove the locking screws.
[0026] 3. The rib plates provided on the support arm can strengthen the structural strength of the support arm while also limiting the rotation angle of the mounting seat, preventing the large-angle rotation of the mounting rod from damaging the main structure and improving safety.
[0027] 4. Multiple fine-adjustment screws are provided on the mounting rod, facilitating fine adjustment of the position of the motor, and the operation process is also more labor-saving.
[0028] 5. The counterweight provides a tensioning force for the lower sprocket and can finely adjust the pressing degree at both ends of the lower sprocket, preventing the lifting chain from running off track during long-term operation. Description of the Drawings
