[0002] In the industrial production process, belt conveyors are important equipment for material transportation and are widely used in various industries such as mining, chemical industry, food processing, etc. They transport raw materials or finished products from one location to another through continuous conveyor belt movement, greatly improving production efficiency and automation level.

[0003] However, as conveyor belts operate over extended periods, various impurities, such as dust, particles, and oil, inevitably become attached and remain on the belts. These impurities can contaminate the conveyed materials and reduce product quality. For example, in the food processing industry, if residual oil or impurities on the conveyor belt are not promptly cleaned, they can directly contaminate food ingredients and endanger consumer health. Similarly, in the mining and chemical industries, the presence of impurities can alter the properties of the materials, affecting the final product quality.

[0004] Traditionally, cleaning these impurities has relied primarily on manual labor, but this approach has numerous drawbacks. First, manual cleaning is inefficient and cannot meet the needs of large-scale production. Second, manual cleaning is often not timely, causing impurities to remain on the conveyor belt for extended periods of time.

[0005] Therefore, developing an efficient, automatic, and safe material cleaning device is crucial for improving belt conveyor efficiency, ensuring material quality, and reducing production costs. While some existing material cleaning devices exist on the market, most suffer from complex structures and high maintenance costs. Therefore, developing a material cleaning device with a simple structure, convenient operation, and effective cleaning performance is a pressing need in current industrial production.

[0006] In view of the above problems, a material cleaning device for a belt conveyor is now designed. Utility Model Content

[0030] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0031] An embodiment of the present application provides a material cleaning device for a belt conveyor, which can solve the problem in the related art that, due to long-term operation of the belt conveyor, various impurities will stick to and remain on the conveyor belt, making manual cleaning inconvenient.

[0032] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 , a material cleaning device for a belt conveyor comprises; a belt conveyor 1, and two baffles 2 relatively arranged on the belt conveyor 1, the belt conveyor 1 has a conveyor belt for conveying materials, a shell 3 is provided between the two baffles 2, the bottom of the shell 3 is provided with a accommodating chamber 4, a cleaning member 5 is inserted into the accommodating chamber 4, a driving member 6 is provided on the accommodating chamber 4, the driving member 6 is connected to the cleaning member 5 and is used to drive the cleaning member 5 to rise and fall, so as to clean the conveyor belt surface of the belt conveyor 1; an adsorption mechanism 7 is provided on the belt conveyor 1; the adsorption mechanism 7 includes a recovery box 71 arranged on the belt conveyor 1 and a fan 72 arranged on the recovery box 71, the air inlet of the fan 72 is communicated with the recovery box 71, the recovery box 71 is connected with an adsorption pipe 73, the adsorption pipe 73 is Y-shaped, and the other two ends of the adsorption pipe 73 are arranged on both sides of the cleaning member 5.

[0033] When the conveyor belt of belt conveyor 1 is in operation, cleaning element 5 within housing 3, between two opposing baffles 2, is in a standby state. Drive element 6, activated according to a preset program or sensor signal, drives cleaning element 5 up and down within accommodating chamber 4. Cleaning element 5 contacts the surface of the conveyor belt, and as the belt moves, scrapers 52 remove impurities adhering to the belt.

[0034] Adsorption mechanism 7 begins operation. After fan 72 is activated, negative pressure is generated within recovery box 71, sucking in air and scraped impurities from both sides of cleaning element 5 through Y-shaped adsorption duct 73. The Y-shaped design of adsorption duct 73 effectively collects impurities from both sides of cleaning element 5, improving cleaning efficiency. The sucked impurities are then transported to recovery box 71 along with the airflow.

[0035] The dual mechanism of mechanical cleaning and adsorption cleaning can quickly and thoroughly remove impurities on the conveyor belt, avoiding impurity residue and accumulation, and improving cleaning efficiency. The collection function of the adsorption mechanism 7 effectively prevents the cleaned impurities from being scattered into the environment, reducing pollution to the production environment and ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the production workshop.

[0036] Timely cleaning of impurities on the conveyor belt prevents contamination of subsequent materials by impurities, ensuring material quality and the stability of the production process. At the same time, it reduces the wear and tear of impurities on the conveyor belt and equipment, extending the service life of the equipment and reducing maintenance costs.

[0037] The entire cleaning process is controlled by automated components such as the drive member 6 and the fan 72, and does not require manual intervention, thereby reducing labor intensity, improving the level of production automation, and increasing the timeliness of cleaning.

[0038] The two ends of the conveyor belt of the belt conveyor 1 in this embodiment are a loading end and a unloading end respectively, and the housing 3 is arranged at the loading end of the conveyor belt.

[0039] Since the housing 3 and the cleaning element 5 therein are located at the feeding end of the conveyor belt, the conveyor belt can be cleaned just before the material enters the conveyor belt. This ensures that the material remains clean throughout the entire conveying process and prevents impurities from gradually accumulating and contaminating the material during the conveying process.

[0040] Placing the cleaning device at the feeding end means that the cleaned impurities will be immediately collected by the adsorption mechanism 7, reducing the possibility of impurities spreading on the conveyor belt. This helps to keep the production environment clean and reduce the potential impact on subsequent production links.

[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, the driving member 6 includes: a plurality of electric push rods 61 arranged on the shell 3; a transmission rod 62 connected to the piston rod of the electric push rod 61; the other end of the transmission rod 62 extends into the interior of the accommodating chamber 4 and is connected to the cleaning member 5.

[0042] The electric push rod has advantages such as simple structure, convenient control, stable thrust, and can accurately adjust the telescopic length of its piston rod according to the control signal. This characteristic makes the electric push rod very suitable for driving the cleaning part 5 to carry out lifting motion.

[0043] The interaction between the electric push rod 61 and the transmission rod 62 forms a highly efficient linkage mechanism. When the control system issues a cleaning command, the electric push rod 61 quickly responds and pushes the transmission rod 62 to move, thereby driving the cleaning unit 5 down to a position where it contacts the conveyor belt surface. As the conveyor belt moves, the scraper 52 on the cleaning unit 5 begins to scrape away impurities. When cleaning is complete, the electric push rod 61 activates again, and the transmission rod 62 lifts the cleaning unit 5 back to its original position, awaiting the next cleaning cycle.

[0044] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of guide rods 8 are further provided inside the accommodating cavity 4 , and a sliding hole adapted to the guide rods 8 is opened on the transmission rod 62 , and the guide rods 8 are arranged inside the sliding hole.

[0045] The guide rod 8 is installed inside the accommodating cavity 4 to play a guiding and stabilizing role.

[0046] Specifically, the sliding hole on the transmission rod 62 is adapted to the guide rod 8, that is, the shape, size and position of the sliding hole are closely matched with the guide rod 8. In this way, when the transmission rod 62 is raised or lowered under the drive of the electric push rod 61, the sliding hole can slide smoothly along the guide rod 8, ensuring that the movement trajectory of the transmission rod 62 is accurate.

[0047] In one embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the recovery box 71 includes a box body 711, and a filter bag 712 is detachably provided inside the box body 711. The top of the box body 711 is open and has a hinged cover.

[0048] Box 711 is responsible for containing impurities drawn in by the adsorption mechanism. Inside box 711 is a removable filter bag 712, which facilitates regular cleaning and replacement. The primary function of filter bag 712 is to filter impurities from the drawn-in airflow, preventing them from entering fan 72 or other subsequent equipment and causing damage or blockage.

[0049] The opening above the box body 711 is convenient for installing the filter bag 712 and performing routine maintenance and inspection. Meanwhile, a cover plate is hingedly connected to the opening to close the opening when not in use to prevent dust and impurities from entering the box body 711 from the outside.

[0050] Through the negative pressure generated by the fan 72 and the guidance of the adsorption pipe 73, the impurities on both sides of the cleaning member 5 are effectively sucked into the recovery box 71. The filtering effect of the filter bag 712 ensures that the impurities are trapped inside the box body 711, preventing the diffusion of impurities and secondary pollution.

[0051] To further explain, Figure 5As shown, the adsorption pipe 73 includes L-shaped pipes 731 arranged relatively on both sides of the cleaning piece 5, and an adsorption cover 732 is provided at one end of the L-shaped pipe 731 close to the cleaning piece 5. An L-shaped transfer pipe 733 is connected between the other ends of the two L-shaped pipes 731, and the other end of the L-shaped transfer pipe 733 is connected to the box body 711.

[0052] The L-shaped pipes 731 on both sides ensure that no matter how the cleaning member 5 moves, the impurities on both sides thereof can be covered and adsorbed by the corresponding L-shaped pipes 731 .

[0053] L-shaped duct 731 is provided with adsorption cover 732 near one end of cleaning part 5. Adsorption cover 732 has larger opening area and suitable shape usually, so that better catch and adsorb the impurity that scrapes off from conveyor belt.

[0054] The design of the L-shaped transfer tube 733 allows the two pipes to smoothly merge into a single airflow channel, thereby transporting impurities to the recovery box 71. The L-shaped shape also helps reduce resistance and turbulence in the airflow during the turn, improving adsorption efficiency. The other end of the L-shaped transfer tube 733 is connected to the recovery box 71. In this way, impurities captured by the adsorption hood 732 and transported along the L-shaped pipe 731 ultimately enter the recovery box 71, where they are filtered and collected by the filter bag 712.

[0055] The coordinated use of the L-shaped pipe 731 and the adsorption cover 732 allows the impurities on both sides of the cleaning member 5 to be effectively captured and adsorbed, thereby reducing the escape and diffusion of the impurities.

[0056] The design of the L-shaped transfer tube 733 ensures that the airflow and impurities can be smoothly merged from the two L-shaped pipes 731 and transported to the recovery box 71, avoiding the problems of airflow blockage and impurity accumulation.
