[0003] Such as Figure 1 The feeding structure shown is one of the most widely used feeding forms in the field of bulk material transportation. This feeding structure can be used for pressure feeding operation. However, when used on a flexible scraper conveyor, it often causes blockage of materials, resulting in the situation that the equipment cannot be pulled. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model to solve the above technical problems is as follows: a feeding structure of a scraper conveyor, including a feeding box with an open top, a partition structure is fixed inside the feeding box, and there are gaps between the periphery of the partition structure and each side wall of the feeding box;
[0006] Partial regions of the two side walls of the partition structure are recessed inward to form a replenishing channel, and a blocking plate for blocking the replenishing channel is slidably installed on the side wall of the partition structure.
[0007] On the basis of the above technical solution, the utility model can be further improved as follows.
[0008] Further, a loading cavity for transporting materials is formed between the partition structure and the bottom wall of the feeding box, a feeding channel is formed between the two sides of the partition structure and the side walls of the feeding box, and the loading cavity is communicated with the transportation channel of the submerged scraper conveyor.
[0009] Further, inclined guide walls are provided between the two side walls of the feeding box and the bottom wall of the feeding box, and the distance between the two inclined guide walls gradually decreases towards the direction close to the bottom wall of the feeding box.
[0010] Further, the partition structure includes a cavity and an empty-load cavity, the cavity is located between the empty-load cavity and the loading cavity, and the bottom wall of the replenishing channel is inclined and recessed towards the inside of the cavity.
[0011] Further, the bottom wall of the partition structure is arranged in a horizontal state.

[0013] Further, the top wall of the partition structure includes a connected first inclined plate and a second inclined plate, and the distance between the first inclined plate and the second inclined plate gradually increases in the direction close to the cavity.
[0014] Further, the width of the partition structure is the same as the width of the bottom wall of the feed box.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present application has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0016] 1. The present application is provided with feeding channels on both sides of the partition structure, so that the material can flow through the feeding channels to the bottom of the feed box, and the space between the partition structure and the bottom wall of the feed box is filled, ensuring the conveying capacity of the conveyor; at the same time, the feeding channels are only arranged in local areas on the side walls on both sides of the partition structure, so that the material filled in the cavity area is less, thereby reducing the extrusion force on the chain and reducing the load of the equipment.

[0026] To facilitate the understanding of the present application, the present application will be described more comprehensively below with reference to the relevant drawings. Embodiments of the present application are shown in the drawings. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive.
[0027] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which this application belongs. The terms used in the specification of this application herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.
[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , the present utility model provides a feeding structure of a scraper conveyor, including a feed box 1, and a partition structure 2 is fixed inside the feed box 1. Specifically, the feed box 1 is in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped box, and the top of the feed box 1 is open. Both ends of the partition structure 2 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feed box 1, and there are gaps between the peripheral side of the partition structure 2 and the inner wall of the feed box 1.
[0029] A loading cavity 5 for transporting materials is formed between the partition structure 2 and the bottom wall of the feed box 1, and the loading cavity 5 is communicated with the scraper conveyor; feeding channels 6 are formed between both sides of the partition structure 2 and the side walls of the feed box 1. When transporting materials, after pouring the materials from the top of the feed box 1, the materials fall from the feeding channels 6 and gather in the loading cavity 5, and are transported into the scraper conveyor through the loading cavity 5 to achieve the transportation of the materials.
[0030] Further, the partition structure 2 is an independent and closed box body, and an unloaded cavity 9 and a cavity 8 are sequentially formed inside the partition structure 2 from top to bottom. The cavity 8 is located between the unloaded cavity 9 and the loading cavity 5. Partial areas of both side walls of the partition structure 2 are recessed inward to form feeding channels 3. Specifically, partial plates of the partition structure 2 are inclined and recessed into the cavity 8, and the side walls of the partition structure 2 are closed, so that the materials can flow along the feeding channels 3 into the loading cavity 5, thereby facilitating the materials to fill the space in the loading cavity 5.
[0031] Meanwhile, the bottom wall of the partition structure 2 is horizontally arranged, making it easier for the loading cavity 5 to be filled with materials, and at the same time, it is not easy for the materials to accumulate in the cavity 8. The conventional feeding structure does not have a replenishing channel 3. When the materials flow from the feeding channel 6 into the loading cavity 5, the side wall of the partition structure 2 affects the movement of the materials, and it is easy to form an unfilled area in the middle area of the bottom wall of the partition structure 2, which makes it difficult for the loading cavity 5 to be completely filled and cannot meet the conveying capacity. At the same time, the replenishing channel 3 of the present application is only opened in a partial area of the partition structure 2. If the replenishing channel 3 is arranged longitudinally along the length of the partition structure 2, it is easy for more materials to accumulate in the loading cavity 5, and then more materials accumulate in the scraper conveyor, increasing the transportation resistance of the scraper chain. Therefore, the replenishing channel 3 is locally arranged in the present application, which can not only make the materials completely fill the loading cavity 5 to meet the demand of the carrying capacity, but also make the accumulation amount of the materials appropriate and not easily cause a large running resistance to the scraper chain.
[0032] Furthermore, inclined guide walls 7 are arranged between the side walls on both sides of the feed box 1 and the bottom wall of the feed box 1, and the distance between the two inclined guide walls 7 gradually decreases in the direction close to the bottom wall of the feed box 1. In addition, the width of the partition structure 2 is the same as the width of the bottom wall of the feed box 1.
[0033] The arrangement of the inclined guide walls 7 enables the materials to move along the inclined guide walls 7 into the loading cavity 5 when flowing through the feeding channel 6, making the flow of the materials smoother and not easily blocked and accumulated. Limiting the width of the partition structure 2 can limit the space of the loading cavity 5, making the area of the loading cavity 5 not too large, which will increase the running resistance of the scraper chain, nor making the area of the loading cavity 5 too small, resulting in insufficient transportation capacity.
[0034] In a preferred embodiment, a blocking plate 4 for blocking the replenishing channel 3 is also slidably installed on the side wall of the partition structure 2. Specifically, the blocking plate 4 can slide and be locked along the height direction of the partition structure 2. By moving the position of the blocking plate 4, different degrees of blocking of the replenishing channel 3 can be achieved, thereby adjusting the transportation capacity of the scraper conveyor.
[0035] Furthermore, the top wall of the partition structure 2 includes a connected first inclined plate 21 and a second inclined plate 22, and the distance between the first inclined plate 21 and the second inclined plate 22 gradually increases in the direction close to the cavity 8, so that when adding materials into the feed box 1 from the top of the feed box 1, the materials can flow along the first inclined plate 21 and the second inclined plate 22 to the feeding channel 6 and are not easily accumulated on the top wall of the partition structure 2.
[0036] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
