Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of belt cleaning, and particularly to a floating scraper and a belt cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] During the transportation of bulk materials by a belt conveyor, there will be material sticking to the return belt surface of the belt conveyor, which is simply referred to as return belt material. The return belt material first affects the service life of the redirecting roller, causing the roller surface to wear relatively quickly. If the return belt material sticks to the roller surface and accumulates more and more, it will cause the conveyor belt to deviate, increase the wear of the conveyor belt, and lead to serious consequences. The return belt material will also stick to the lower idlers in the empty running section, accelerating the wear of the conveyor belt. The material will also enter the idler housing, thereby increasing the radial load and axial load on the bearing seat and causing the bearing to wear quickly. In addition, when the material stuck to the idler housing dries, it will interact with the belt, causing dust. The vibration of the return belt material sticking to the belt when passing through each idler will also cause dust. Therefore, belt cleaning has increasingly become an indispensable part of the belt conveyor system, and the cleaning requirements for the belt are also getting higher and higher.

[0003] Generally, polyurethane scrapers, alloy scrapers or ceramic scrapers are used in belt cleaners to scrape off the materials adhered to the belt surface. However, since the scraper is generally relatively hard and needs to be close to the belt to achieve a better cleaning effect, if the shock absorption effect of the scraper is not good, it is easy to damage the belt, thereby shortening the service life of the belt. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a floating scraper and a belt cleaning device, which solve the problems that the scraper of the existing belt cleaner is easy to damage the belt, etc.

[0005] In the first aspect of this application, a floating scraper is provided, which includes a scraper, a tool holder and a fixed seat. The scraper is fixedly installed on the tool holder, and the tool holder is connected to the fixed seat through an elastic element.

[0006] In the technical solution provided by this application, by connecting an elastic element between the tool holder and the fixed seat, when the scraper abuts against the belt surface, the elastic element can play a certain buffering and shock absorption role, reducing the damage caused by the scraper to the belt surface, thereby prolonging the service life of the belt.

[0007] In some embodiments, there are two elastic elements, which are respectively located at both ends of the scraper. It can not only realize the overall up and down floating of the scraper, buffer the impact force when the scraper abuts against the belt, and reduce the damage of the scraper to the belt, but also realize the up and down floating of the left and right ends of the scraper, enabling the scraper to better fit the belt surface and improving the belt cleaning effect.

[0008] In some embodiments, the tool rest is a U-shaped frame. The distance between the opposite side walls of the U-shaped frame matches the thickness of the fixed seat. The fixed seat and the U-shaped frame are hinged by a pin shaft, enhancing the stability of the connection between the fixed seat and the tool rest.

[0009] In some embodiments, through holes for installing the pin shaft are provided oppositely on the two side walls of the U-shaped frame. A waist-shaped hole matching the through hole is provided on the side surface of the fixed seat. The length direction of the waist-shaped hole is the same as the telescopic direction of the elastic element. By providing a waist-shaped hole on the side surface of the fixed seat to cooperate with the through hole on the side surface of the U-shaped frame, on the one hand, the U-shaped frame can rotate around the pin shaft, realizing the left and right floating of the scraper, enabling the two ends of the scraper to automatically adapt to the pits on the belt surface and better fit the belt surface; on the other hand, the U-shaped frame can also slide up and down along the length direction of the waist-shaped hole, realizing the overall up and down floating of the scraper and meeting the vibration damping requirements of the scraper.

[0010] In some embodiments, a positioning hole for installing the elastic element is provided on the top surface of the fixed seat. The inner diameter of the positioning hole matches the outer diameter of the elastic element, facilitating the installation of the elastic element.

[0011] In some embodiments, the bottom end of the positioning hole penetrates the bottom surface of the fixed seat, and an adjusting screw is installed at the bottom of the positioning hole. By screwing in or out the adjusting screw, the depth of the positioning hole can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the pressing force of the elastic element on the tool rest and further adjusting the pressing force of the scraper on the belt.

[0012] In some embodiments, the cutting edge of the scraper is an arc surface that fits the belt surface, which is more likely to fit and press the belt, improving the belt cleaning effect.

[0013] The second aspect of the present application provides a belt cleaning device, including a cross beam fixedly installed below the return belt. A plurality of the above-mentioned floating scrapers are fixedly installed on the top of the cross beam. The adjacent floating scrapers are arranged at intervals, and the length direction of the scraper is perpendicular to the transmission direction of the return belt.

[0014] In some embodiments, there are multiple cross beams. The multiple cross beams are arranged at intervals along the transmission direction of the return belt, and the multiple floating scrapers on the adjacent cross beams are arranged staggeredly, forming a floating scraper array arranged in multiple rows, at intervals, and staggeredly, constituting multiple mutually complementary cleaning points on the belt surface to achieve full coverage cleaning of the belt surface and improve the belt cleaning effect.
