Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of glass bottle production, and particularly relates to a scraping device for clearing blockages in a silo. Background Art

[0002] Blockage of the glass raw material discharge port is a common problem in the glass manufacturing process. It usually occurs when the raw materials flow out of the silo and enter the next process. Since the discharge port of the upper silo is too narrow, in glass raw materials, especially fine powder materials, if their water content is too high, these particles are like sponges. These fine particles will absorb moisture in the air, causing the materials to stick to each other and form lumps. Due to the strong viscosity of these lumps, they will adhere to the discharge port of the upper silo, forming an adhesion layer that is not easy to flow. Over time, this adhesion layer will gradually thicken, occupying more space at the discharge port, thereby further reducing the material flow area, exacerbating the blockage phenomenon, affecting the continuity of production, and may also cause waste of raw materials and increase the costs of cleaning and maintenance. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a scraping device for clearing blockages in a silo, aiming to solve the technical problems that the adhesion layer will gradually thicken, occupy more space at the discharge port, thereby further reducing the material flow area, exacerbating the blockage phenomenon, affecting the continuity of production, and may also cause waste of raw materials and increase the costs of cleaning and maintenance.

[0006] When the raw materials at the discharge port flow poorly and become blocked, the transmission cylinder rotates, and the connecting arm also rotates accordingly, thereby driving the mounting seat and the scraping seat to move together. During the rotation of the scraping seat, the scraper on the scraping seat will be in close contact with the inner wall of the discharge port. Since the scraper is elastic, it can adapt to the shape of the inner wall of the discharge port and apply pressure to the raw materials adhering to the discharge port during rotation, scraping off the raw materials, effectively removing the blockage of the discharge port, maintaining the smooth flow of materials, improving production efficiency, and reducing equipment maintenance costs.

[0007] Further, in the present application, a first guiding ring groove is provided at the bottom of the supporting convex ring, the feeding part is located inside the first guiding ring groove, and the top of the transmission cylinder is in sliding fit with the first guiding ring groove.

[0030] Refer to Figures 1-4, in some specific embodiments, a scraping device for unclogging a silo includes a support frame 1. A silo body 2 is provided at the top of the support frame 1. A blanking part 3 is provided at the bottom of the silo body 2. A discharge port 4 is opened at the bottom of the blanking part 3. A support convex ring 5 is provided on the outer edge of the blanking part 3. A transmission cylinder 10 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the support convex ring 5. A plurality of connecting arms 13 are provided at the bottom of the transmission cylinder 10. The connecting arms 13 are located below the blanking part 3. An installation seat 18 is provided on one side of the connecting arm 13. One end of the installation seat 18 extends into the interior of the discharge port 4. A scraping seat 22 is provided on one side of the installation seat 18. A scraping plate 25 is provided on one side of the scraping seat 22. The scraping plate 25 abuts against the interior of the discharge port 4. The scraping plate 25 has elasticity.

[0031] Through the above technical solution, when the raw materials in the discharge port 4 flow poorly and form a blockage, the transmission cylinder 10 rotates, and the connecting arm 13 also rotates accordingly, thereby driving the installation seat 18 and the scraping seat 22 to move together. During the rotation of the scraping seat 22, the scraping plate 25 on the scraping seat 22 will be in close contact with the inner wall of the discharge port 4. Since the scraping plate 25 has elasticity, it can adapt to the shape of the inner wall of the discharge port 4 and apply pressure to the raw materials adhering to the discharge port 4 during the rotation process, scraping off the raw materials, effectively removing the blockage of the discharge port 4, maintaining the smooth flow of the materials, improving the production efficiency, and reducing the equipment maintenance cost.

[0032] In addition, the scraping plate 25 has elasticity, which can effectively reduce the wear on the discharge port 4 and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0033] Refer to Figure 3 , in some specific embodiments, a first guiding ring groove 6 is opened at the bottom of the support convex ring 5. The blanking part 3 is located inside the first guiding ring groove 6. The top of the transmission cylinder 10 is in sliding fit with the first guiding ring groove 6.

[0034] Through the above technical solution, since the top of the transmission cylinder 10 is in sliding fit with the first guiding ring groove 6, the first guiding ring groove 6 provides precise positioning, ensuring that the transmission cylinder 10 will not shift during rotation, thus guaranteeing the overall stability of the transmission cylinder 10 and the accuracy of the operation.

[0035] Refer to Figure 3 , in some specific embodiments, a second guiding ring groove 9 is opened at the bottom of the blanking part 3. A guiding rotating shaft 14 is rotatably connected to the top of the connecting arm 13. A guiding roller 15 is provided at one end of the guiding rotating shaft 14. The guiding roller 15 is in rolling fit with the second guiding ring groove 9.

[0036] Through the above technical solution, the guiding roller 15 is in rolling fit with the second guiding ring groove 9, ensuring that the connecting arm 13 can be stably installed on the blanking part 3 during the rotation of the transmission cylinder 10 and can maintain an accurate position during rotation, guaranteeing the stability and accuracy of the scraping plate 25.

A driving convex tooth 11 is provided on the outer edge of the transmission cylinder 10. The driving gear 8 meshes with the driving convex tooth 11.

[0038] Through the above technical solution, when the driving motor 7 rotates, the driving gear 8 will also rotate accordingly. Since the driving gear 8 meshes with the driving convex tooth 11, the driving convex tooth 11 will also rotate following the driving gear 8, enabling the transmission cylinder 10 to rotate, thereby driving the scraper 25 to work. The way that the driving motor 7 directly transmits power to the transmission cylinder 10 through the driving gear 8 and the driving convex tooth 11 reduces energy loss and ensures that the scraper 25 can stably and accurately perform the scraping task during rotation.

[0039] Reference Figures 2-3 Figures 2-3 , in some specific embodiments, two limiting convex rings 12 are provided on the outer edge of the transmission cylinder 10. The driving convex tooth 11 and the driving gear 8 are located between the two limiting convex rings 12.

[0040] Through the above technical solution, the driving convex tooth 11 and the driving gear 8 are located between the two limiting convex rings 12, which means that when the scraping device rotates, the meshing relationship between the driving gear 8 and the driving convex tooth 11 is restricted by the limiting convex rings 12, ensuring that the transmission cylinder 10 will not deviate from the normal rotation trajectory due to overload of the driving motor 7 or other reasons during rotation.

[0041] Reference Figure 4 Figure 4 , in some specific embodiments, the material of the scraper 25 is rubber.

[0042] Through the above technical solution, the rubber scraper 25 has good elasticity, which enables the scraper 25 to adapt to the inner walls of silos with different shapes and sizes during the scraping process, effectively removing the materials adhering to the discharge port 4 and keeping the discharge port 4 unobstructed; and the rubber material has high wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Good wear resistance can withstand the wear generated during the scraping process, thereby extending the service life of the scraper 25, and good corrosion resistance is suitable for processing different types of raw materials.
