Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of elevator equipment, in particular to a hoist feed hopper with an adjusting function. Background Art
[0002] The bucket elevator is a commonly used material conveying equipment, which has the advantages of simple structure, high reliability and smooth operation, and is widely used. The front feed hopper of the bucket elevator is usually directly connected to the bucket elevator, and the material directly enters the bucket elevator through the feed hopper, which easily causes the phenomena of material jamming, material crushing or belt slipping in the bucket elevator. Seriously, it will damage the motor and the feeding equipment, resulting in equipment shutdown.
[0003] The existing feed hopper and the bucket elevator solve the above problems by setting a device for uniform feeding, such as a vibrating feeder, a spiral belt conveyor or a star unloader. Although these solutions solve the above problems to a certain extent, there are also obvious deficiencies, such as: the height of the equipment at the front end of the bucket elevator is increased, the space layout is more complex, and the power consumption is increased. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to solve the problem that the device for uniform feeding is arranged between the existing feed hopper and the bucket elevator, resulting in an increase in the height of the equipment at the front end of the bucket elevator and a more complex space layout, the utility model provides a hoist feed hopper with an adjusting function. The end of the adjusting rod extends into the feed hopper and contacts the adjusting plate. By changing the length of the adjusting rod extending into the feed hopper, the adjusting plate hinged in the feed hopper is driven to rotate, reducing the feeding area of the material in the feed hopper, thereby reducing the feeding speed of the material and avoiding the situations of material jamming and material crushing in the bucket elevator.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is as follows:
[0006] A hoist feed hopper with an adjusting function includes a first mounting plate, two side plates and a bottom plate that enclose a feeding space. The two ends of the bottom plate are respectively fixed to the lower ends of the two side plates, and the ends of the two side plates are both fixed to the first mounting plate. An outlet is provided on the first mounting plate, and the outlet is located on the side of the feeding space. An adjusting mechanism is arranged in the feed hopper. The adjusting mechanism includes an adjusting rod and an adjusting plate hinged to the feed hopper. The adjusting rod is arranged on the side plate, and the end of the adjusting rod extends into the feed hopper and contacts the adjusting plate. The length of the adjusting rod extending into the feed hopper is adjustable. The adjusting rod is threadedly connected to the side plate. By rotating the adjusting rod, the length of the adjusting rod extending into the feed hopper is adjusted, and then the adjusting plate hinged in the feed hopper is driven to rotate.
[0007] Furthermore, two opposite adjusting mechanisms are provided inside the feed hopper, and the two adjusting mechanisms are respectively close to the two side plates. When the adjusting plate is not subjected to the thrust of the adjusting rod, it is in a vertical state and contacts the inner side surface of the side plate.
[0008] Furthermore, the upper ends of the two side plates and the bottom plate extend upward to form an extended part, and a second mounting plate is fixed at the upper end of the extended part. The middle of the second mounting plate is open and coincides with the feed end of the feed space.
[0009] Furthermore, the adjusting mechanism further includes a hinge shaft, the hinge shaft is hinged to the adjusting plate, one end of the hinge shaft is fixed to the extended part of the bottom plate, and the other end is fixed to the side of the second mounting plate close to the first mounting plate. A sleeve is fixed at the upper end of the adjusting plate, and the sleeve is sleeved outside the hinge shaft.
[0010] Furthermore, the bottom plate is inclined, and the side of the bottom plate close to the first mounting plate is lower than the side of the bottom plate away from the first mounting plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the lower end of the adjusting plate contacts the bottom plate.
[0012] Furthermore, an inner baffle is fixed on the side of the first mounting plate away from the bottom plate, and the inner baffle is located below the discharge port. The inner baffle mainly plays a role in buffering the material.
[0013] Furthermore, the first mounting plate is provided with a plurality of screw holes for connecting with the hoist.
[0014] Furthermore, the second mounting plate is provided with a plurality of screw holes for connecting with the discharge pipe of external equipment.
[0015] Through the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: In the present utility model, the adjusting rod is threadedly connected to the side plate. By rotating the adjusting rod to adjust the length of its extension into the feed hopper, the adjusting plate hinged inside the feed hopper is driven to rotate, reducing the feed area of the material in the feed hopper, thereby reducing the feed speed of the material, realizing the stable transportation of the material, and reducing the probability of material jamming and material breakage in the bucket elevator. Compared with the existing devices for increasing uniform feeding, the structure is relatively simple, reducing energy consumption and production costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Detailed implementation manners
[0023] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and detailed implementation manners:
[0024] As Figures 1 to 6 shown, this embodiment provides a hoist feed hopper with an adjustment function, including a first mounting plate 1, two side plates 2 and a bottom plate 3 that enclose to form a feed space. Both ends of the bottom plate 3 are respectively fixed to the lower ends of the two side plates 2, and the ends of the two side plates 2 are both fixed to the first mounting plate 1. A discharge port 4 is provided on the first mounting plate 1, and the discharge port 4 is located on the side of the feed space. The first mounting plate 1 is provided with a plurality of screw holes for fixedly connecting with the hoist. The bottom plate 3 is inclined, and the side of the bottom plate 3 close to the first mounting plate 1 is lower than the side of the bottom plate 3 away from the first mounting plate 1. The lower end of the adjusting plate 6 contacts the bottom plate 3.
[0025] Furthermore, an adjustment mechanism is provided inside the feed hopper. The adjustment mechanism includes an adjusting rod 5 and an adjusting plate 6 hinged to the feed hopper. The adjusting rod 5 is arranged on the side plate 2, and the end of the adjusting rod 5 extends into the feed hopper to contact the adjusting plate 6, and the length of the adjusting rod 5 extending into the feed hopper is adjustable.
[0026] In this embodiment, two opposite adjustment mechanisms are provided inside the feed hopper, and the two adjustment mechanisms are respectively close to the two side plates 2. When the adjusting plate 6 is not subjected to the thrust of the adjusting rod 5, it is in a vertical state and contacts the inner side surface of the side plate 2. In this state, the rotation range of the adjusting plate 6 is determined by the distance between the upper end of the adjusting plate 6 and the connection point of the adjusting rod 5 and the side plate 2. At this time, the connection point of the adjusting rod 5 and the side plate 2 is located in the middle of the side plate 2, and the rotation range of the adjusting plate 6 is 0-70 degrees.
[0027] Furthermore, the upper ends of the two side plates 2 and the bottom plate 3 extend upward to form an extension part, and a second mounting plate 7 is fixed to the upper end of the extension part. The middle of the second mounting plate 7 is open and coincides with the feeding end of the feeding space. A plurality of screw holes are provided on the second mounting plate 7 for connecting with the discharge pipe of external equipment. In this embodiment, the upper ends of the two side plates 2 and the bottom plate 3 extend vertically to form an extension part.
[0028] Specifically, the adjusting mechanism further includes a hinge shaft 8. The hinge shaft 8 is hinged to the adjusting plate 6. One end of the hinge shaft 8 is fixed to the extension part of the bottom plate 3, and the other end is fixed to the side of the second mounting plate 7 close to the first mounting plate 1. A sleeve is fixed on the adjusting plate 6, and the sleeve is sleeved outside the hinge shaft 8.
[0029] In this embodiment, wear-resistant plates can also be fixed to the sides of the two adjusting plates 6 close to each other to improve the strength of the adjusting plates 6 and extend the service life of the adjusting plates 6.
[0030] As an implementable mode, two wear-resistant plates 12 are fixed at the middle opening of the second mounting plate 7 to prevent the material from directly impacting the feed hopper when falling.
[0031] As an implementable mode, an inner baffle 9 is fixed to the side of the first mounting plate 1 away from the bottom plate 3, and the inner baffle 9 is located below the discharge port 4.
[0032] This device first installs the feed hopper on the bucket elevator through the screw holes on the first mounting plate 1. The discharge port 4 on the first mounting plate 1 coincides with the feeding end of the bucket elevator. Then, the feed hopper is connected to the material conveying pipe of external equipment through the screw holes on the second mounting plate 7. When the material is transported to the elevator through this feed hopper, rotate the adjusting rods 5 on the two side plates 2, and the length of the adjusting rods 5 entering the feed hopper continuously increases. At this time, the two adjusting plates 6 rotate towards each other (as Figure 6 ), reducing the feeding area of the material in the feed hopper, thereby reducing the feeding speed of the material and avoiding the situation of material jamming and material breakage in the bucket elevator; compared with the existing devices for increasing uniform feeding, this device has the advantages of no power consumption, space saving, uniform feeding, convenient adjustment, and long service life.
[0033] The above embodiments are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the implementation scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made according to the structure, features, and principles described in the scope of the present invention patent should be included in the scope of the patent application of the present invention.
