Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hoist support installation, and relates to a bucket elevator support assembly. Background Technique

[0002] A bucket elevator is a continuous conveying machine that uses a series of buckets fixedly connected to an endless traction member to vertically lift materials. The bucket elevator continuously lifts bulk or crushed materials in a vertical or nearly vertical direction through a series of buckets fixed on a ring traction chain or belt.

[0003] In order to solve the problem that there is no simple installation support plate between the bucket and the bucket elevator at present, and the lower part of the bucket cannot be effectively supported and protected. As a result, it is difficult to disassemble and clean the bucket from the bucket elevator during use, and there are difficulties in the disassembly and cleaning operations of the bucket during use. The patent with the authorization announcement number CN219313742U provides a support structure for a bucket elevator. However, this support structure only supports the bottom of the bucket, has a small stress surface, and only limits the bucket by the clamping column and the sealing guide plate in the clamping groove. When the bucket is working, the clamping column and the sealing guide plate will be subjected to a large external force, which easily causes wear of the clamping column and the sealing guide plate, and then causes the bucket to loosen and work unstably. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a bucket elevator support assembly to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In view of the above technical problems existing in the prior art, a bucket elevator support assembly is provided, which effectively solves the problems that the support structure in the patent CN219313742U only supports the bottom of the bucket, has a small stress surface, and only limits the bucket by the clamping column and the sealing guide plate in the clamping groove. When the bucket is working, the clamping column and the sealing guide plate will be subjected to a large external force, which easily causes wear of the clamping column and the sealing guide plate, and then causes the bucket to loosen and work unstably.

[0019] Please refer to Figures 1-4, a further description of the embodiments of the present utility model will be given;

[0020] As Figure 1 and 2 shown, a bucket elevator support assembly includes: a lifting base plate 1, a support frame 2, a hopper 3 and a limiting member 4. The support frame 2 is fixed on the lifting base plate 1, and the installation end of the hopper 3 is embedded in the support frame 2. In order to make it easier for the hopper 3 to move in and out, a sliding member (such as a sliding guide pair) can be provided between the hopper 3 and the support frame 2. The inner wall of the support frame 2 is in contact with the hopper 3 all around. The contact surface between the hopper 3 and the support frame 2 is relatively large, which is beneficial to the stable positioning of the hopper 3 within the support frame 2. In order to further enhance the stability of the hopper 3 within the support frame 2, the width of the bottom of the support frame 2 is greater than or equal to 5 cm to ensure that the support frame 2 has a sufficient support surface for the bottom of the hopper 3. The inner wall of the support frame 2 is roughened all around, which can increase the friction between the support frame 2 and the hopper 3 and prevent the hopper 3 from sliding within the support frame 2. A positioning member is provided at the lower edge of the top of the support frame 2, and the lower end of the positioning member extends into the hopper 3 and abuts against it, so that the hopper 3 is stably positioned within the support frame 2. The limiting member 4 is installed between the positioning member and the support frame 2, and the limiting member 4 is used to limit the positioning member, which is beneficial to more stable positioning of the positioning member.

[0021] As Figure 1 and 4 shown, a U-shaped chute 22 is formed at the lower edge of the top of the support frame 2. The positioning member specifically includes a limiting strip 21 that matches the chute 22 and a plurality of springs 23 vertically fixed between the chute 22 and the limiting strip 21. The lower end of the limiting strip 21 extends into the hopper 3 and abuts against it. Under the elastic force of the spring 23 and the gravity of the limiting strip 21 itself, the lower end of the limiting strip 21 can quickly extend into the hopper 3 and abut against it to position the hopper 3. In order to fill the gap between the hopper 3 and the limiting strip 21, rubber soft pads 31 are fixed all around the inner wall of the hopper 3, and the limiting strip 21 is in contact with the rubber soft pads 31, which can further prevent the hopper 3 from being dragged within the support frame 2.

[0022] The limiting member 4 is installed between the limiting strip 21 and the support frame 2 and is used to limit the limiting strip 21. The limiting member 4 specifically includes an upper fixing plate 41, a lower fixing plate 42 and a bolt 43. The upper fixing plate 41 is fixed on the top of the support frame 2, and a screw hole 411 is formed on the upper fixing plate 41. The lower fixing plate 42 is fixed on the bottom of the limiting strip 21. The lower end of the bolt 43 passes through the screw hole 411 and is rotatably connected to the lower fixing plate 42, and the bolt 43 is threadedly connected to the screw hole 411.

[0023] Working principle: Before the hopper 3 is installed in the support frame 2 of the lifting substrate 1, turn the bolt 43 upward. The bolt 43 rotates on the lower fixing plate 42 and at the same time drives the lower fixing plate 42 to move upward. Thereby, the limiting strip 21 can be driven to move upward and slide into the chute 22. During this process, the limiting strip 21 compresses the spring 23. When the limiting strip 21 completely enters the chute 22, it is convenient to embed the hopper 3 into the support frame 2. When the hopper 3 fits the inner walls of the support frame 2, it indicates that the hopper 3 has been installed. At this time, the contact surface between the hopper 3 and the support frame 2 is relatively large, which is beneficial for the hopper 3 to be stably located in the support frame 2. Then turn the bolt 43 downward to drive the lower fixing plate 42 and the limiting strip 21 to move downward. When the limiting strip 21 slides to the bottommost part inside the chute 22, the bottom of the inner wall of the chute 22 will limit the limiting strip 21 to prevent the limiting strip 21 from continuing to slide downward. At this time, the lower end of the limiting strip 21 enters the hopper 3 to limit the hopper 3, which is beneficial for the hopper 3 to be stably installed in the support frame 2. And when the bolt 43 is no longer rotated, the support frame 2 can well fix and support the hopper 3.

[0024] If the hopper 3 needs to be cleaned or replaced after being used for a period of time, the hopper 3 can be disassembled in the reverse order of the installation steps of the hopper 3, and then the cleaned or new hopper 3 can be installed in the support frame 2. The installation and disassembly operations are simple, which is convenient for the staff to install or disassemble the hopper 3.
