Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hoist buckets, in particular to a plate chain hoist bucket for alternative fuels.

Background Art

[0002] As one of the components for material transportation, the bucket mainly functions to load materials. At the same time, due to the different types of loaded materials, various characteristics of the corresponding materials need to be considered in the design of the bucket structure, such as shape and size (powder, granular, blocky, etc.), bulk density, temperature, dryness and humidity, abrasiveness, etc. According to these characteristics, the structure of the bucket is designed and optimized to avoid problems such as material accumulation, hanging, and backflow during the feeding and discharging processes.

[0003] For alternative fuels such as plastics and cloth strips, considering their relevant characteristics, therefore, a plate chain hoist bucket for alternative fuels is needed.

Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the problems in the prior art and propose a plate chain hoist bucket for alternative fuels, which can meet the requirement of smooth discharging of such materials during transportation.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model proposes a plate chain hoist bucket for alternative fuels, including a bucket body. The bottom of the bucket body is arc-shaped. A number of exhaust holes are provided on both the bottom and the front side wall of the bucket body, and the exhaust holes are waist-shaped holes.

[0006] Preferably, rib plates are provided on the front part of the inner bottom and the front side wall of the bucket body, and the width of the rib plates gradually becomes wider from top to bottom.

[0007] Preferably, the lower end of the rib plate fits with the corresponding inner bottom of the bucket body.

[0008] Preferably, a reinforcing steel plate is provided on the outer side of the upper end of the rear side wall of the bucket body, and the reinforcing steel plate is fixedly connected to the left and right side plates of the bucket body.

[0009] Preferably, a wear-resistant lip is provided at the upper end of the front side wall of the bucket body, and the wear-resistant lip is fixedly connected to the left and right side plates of the bucket body.

[0010] Preferably, uniformly distributed teeth are provided at the upper end of the wear-resistant lip.

[0011] Preferably, the outer side surface of the wear-resistant lip is flush with the outer side surface of the front side wall of the bucket body.

[0012] Preferably, the front side wall of the bucket body is inclined forward.

[0013] Advantages of the present utility model: The bottom of the hopper body of the present utility model is in an arc shape, which can effectively avoid the phenomenon of material accumulation at the bottom during unloading. At the same time, a number of exhaust holes are provided on the bottom and the front side wall body of the hopper body. The exhaust holes are waist-shaped holes. When conveying alternative fuels such as plastics and cloth strips, it is easier to discharge the internal gas, prevent the materials in the hopper from piling up too high due to characteristics such as light weight and looseness, and avoid the phenomenon of material return during unloading at the head wheel. Compared with the prior art, it can meet the requirements of smooth unloading of such materials during transportation.

[0014] The features and advantages of the present utility model will be described in detail through embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

Explanation of the Drawings

[0015] Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a bucket of a plate chain elevator for alternative fuel of the present utility model;

[0016] Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of a bucket of a plate chain elevator for alternative fuel of the present utility model.

[0017] In the figure: 1 - hopper body, 2 - exhaust hole, 3 - rib plate, 4 - reinforcing steel plate, 5 - wear-resistant lip, 6 - tooth body.

Specific Embodiments

[0018] Refer to Figure 1 、 2 A bucket of a plate chain elevator for alternative fuel of the present utility model includes a hopper body 1. The bottom of the hopper body 1 is in an arc shape. A number of exhaust holes 2 are provided on the bottom and the front side wall body of the hopper body 1. The exhaust holes 2 are waist-shaped holes.

[0019] Rib plates 3 are provided on the front part of the inner bottom and the front side wall body of the hopper body 1. The width of the rib plates 3 gradually becomes wider from top to bottom.

[0020] The lower end of the rib plate 3 fits with the corresponding inner bottom of the hopper body 1.

[0021] A reinforcing steel plate 4 is provided on the outer side of the upper end of the rear side wall body of the hopper body 1. The reinforcing steel plate 4 is fixedly connected to the left and right side plates of the hopper body 1.

[0022] A wear-resistant lip 5 is provided at the upper end of the front side wall body of the hopper body 1. The wear-resistant lip 5 is fixedly connected to the left and right side plates of the hopper body 1.

[0023] Uniformly distributed tooth bodies 6 are provided at the upper end of the wear-resistant lip 5.

[0024] The outer side surface of the wear-resistant lip 5 is flush with the outer side surface of the front side wall body of the hopper body 1.

[0025] The front side wall of the hopper body 1 is inclined forward.

[0026] The working process of the present utility model:

[0027] During the working process of a plate chain elevator hopper for alternative fuel of the present utility model, the hopper scoops up materials through the teeth 6 on its wear-resistant lip 5 at the feeding port at the tail of the elevator and guides the materials into the inner cavity of the hopper. The materials accumulate in the inner cavity of the hopper, and the gas in the gap is discharged through the exhaust holes 2, reducing the looseness of the material accumulation. Then, the chain drives the hopper to be transported to the discharging port at the head of the elevator. The hopper rotates in reverse, and the materials tilt out accordingly. Due to the special exhaust holes 2 and the arc-shaped bottom design, the phenomenon of material accumulation is avoided. The optimized design of the rib plate 3 avoids the phenomenon of material hanging.

[0028] The hopper body 1 and the reinforcing steel plate 4 are connected by welding to increase the rigidity of the hopper; the rib plate 3 is used to increase the overall strength of the hopper. The rib plate 3 is closely attached to the corresponding inner side of the hopper body 1. The design form of the rib plate 3 prevents problems such as the phenomenon of material hanging; the outer side of the wear-resistant lip 5 is flush with the outer side of the front side wall of the hopper body 1 to prevent the phenomenon of material hanging during material guiding. The wear-resistant lip 5 is provided with teeth 6, and the plate thickness is thickened to facilitate the hopper to scoop up materials.

[0029] The above embodiments are illustrative of the present utility model, not restrictive thereof. Any simple transformation of the present utility model falls within the protection scope of the present utility model.
