Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention. Example 1
[0026] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 This embodiment provides a scraper device for a belt conveyor. The belt conveyor is mainly composed of a conveyor frame 1, a discharge roller 2 and a conveyor belt 3. The discharge roller 2 is rotatably installed at the discharge end of the conveyor frame 1. The conveyor belt 3 surrounds the discharge roller 2. A discharge funnel 4 is installed on the periphery of the discharge roller 2. The discharge funnel 4 is connected to the conveyor frame 1 by bolts.
[0027] A scraper device is installed at the bottom of the return conveyor belt below the discharge roller 2. It primarily consists of a scraper frame 5, a sprocket shaft 6, a sprocket 7, a chain 8, a scraper plate 9, and an adjustment mechanism. Two scraper frames 5 are placed at the bottom of the return conveyor belt and fixedly connected to the conveyor frame 1. Each scraper frame 5 is mounted with a sprocket shaft 6, each end of which is rotatably connected to the scraper frame 5 via bearing blocks. The sprocket shafts 6 are arranged horizontally, with sprockets 7 mounted at each end. The two sprockets 7 on the same side are connected by a chain 8.
[0028] Multiple scraper plates 9 are installed between the chains 8 on both sides. Each end of the scraper plates 9 is equipped with an adjustment structure, which mainly consists of an adjustment seat 10, an adjustment rod 11, an adjustment sleeve 12, an adjustment bolt 13, a fixing plate 14, and an adjustment nut 15. The adjustment seat 10 is U-shaped, with the open end facing inward. The two adjustment seats 10 are symmetrically arranged. The bottom plate of the adjustment seat 10 is fixedly connected to the chain 8, and the two side plates of the adjustment seat 10 are symmetrically provided with vertical adjustment holes 10-1. The ends of the scraper plates 9 are respectively placed in the U-shaped notches of the adjustment seat 10. The circular adjustment rod 11 extends through the adjustment hole 10-1 and the scraper plates 9. The ends of the adjustment rod 11 are stepped structures, and the adjustment sleeve 12 is mounted on the shaft head of the adjustment rod 11. A vertical adjusting bolt 13 is welded to the outer wall of the adjusting sleeve 12. The upper end of the adjusting bolt 13 passes through the horizontal part of the inverted L-shaped fixing plate 14. The vertical part of the fixing plate 14 is welded to the side plate of the adjusting seat 10. The adjusting bolts 13 on both sides of the horizontal part of the fixing plate 14 are respectively installed with adjusting nuts 15.
[0029] After the scraper plate 9 is worn out after long-term use, loosen the adjusting nut 15 below the horizontal part of the fixing plate 14, tighten the adjusting nut 15 above the horizontal part, and move the adjusting bolt 13 upward, thereby driving the adjusting sleeve 12 and the adjusting rod 11 to move upward. The adjusting rod 11 drives the scraper plate 9 to move upward. After the top end of the scraper plate 9 contacts the belt surface of the conveyor belt 3, tighten the adjusting nut 15. Example 2
[0030] See also Figure 5 、 Figure 6 Guide plates 16 are symmetrically positioned on the inner sides of the vertical support rods 5-1 on either side of the scraper frame 5. These guide plates 16 are arranged at a downward angle and direct scraped material into the discharge hopper 4. To accommodate belt conveyors of varying specifications and materials, the guide plates 16 feature an adjustable inclination angle. They are connected to the vertical support rods 5-1 via hinges or hinge assemblies. The lower surface of the guide plates 16 is hinged to the upper end of an adjustment rod 18 via an ear plate 17 and a pin. The adjustment rod 18 is a threaded rod, the lower end of which is inserted into an adjustment block 19. A connecting pin is welded to one side of the adjustment block 19 and hingedly connected to a connecting plate 20, which is welded to the vertical support rod 5-1. Nuts are attached to the adjustment rods 18 on either side of the adjustment block 19. The adjustment rods 18 adjust the inclination angle of the guide plates 16. A wear-resistant rubber sheet is installed on the upper surface of the guide plates 16 to enhance their service life. Example 3
[0031] See also Figure 7 、 Figure 8To prevent the chain 8 from sagging between the two sprockets 7 and affecting the scraping of the scraper 9, a support structure is installed between the two scraper frames 5. The support structure mainly consists of a support rail 21, rollers 22, and bolt pins 23. The two support rails 21 are placed at the bottom of the upper and lower horizontal parts of the chain 8, respectively. The top of the support rail 21 has a groove that runs through the support rail body. Multiple rollers 22 are installed in the groove. The rollers 22 are rotatably connected to the support rail 21 by bolt pins 23. The rollers 22 are in rolling connection with the chain 8. The rollers 22 reduce wear on the chain 8 and improve transmission stability. The support structure keeps the chain 8 in a horizontal state, so that the scraper 9 is always in contact with the belt surface of the conveyor belt 3.
