Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grain conveying technology, and in particular to a mobile rotary conveyor with a grain baffle. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of grain storage and transportation, conveyors are among the most commonly used pieces of equipment for transporting grain into grain silos. These conveyors are typically responsible for moving grain from harvesting sites or temporary storage areas to the silos. However, existing conveyor technologies present some significant problems during the continuous accumulation of grain. Particularly during grain transport, the conveyor wheels are easily buried by the accumulating grain, affecting the conveyor's mobility and operational flexibility. Furthermore, grain may become stuck in the vehicle body, severely impacting the normal operation of the conveyor, reducing work efficiency, and even potentially causing damage to the conveyor, increasing maintenance costs and operational risks. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a mobile rotary conveyor with a grain baffle, which effectively avoids these problems and improves conveying efficiency and safety by adding a grain baffle.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a mobile rotary conveyor with a grain-blocking plate, comprising a conveyor body and a grain-blocking mechanism disposed on the conveyor body. The grain-blocking mechanism is disposed on the conveyor body at the end of the conveying direction to prevent the conveyor body from being buried by accumulated grain. The grain-blocking mechanism includes a main plate disposed on the conveyor body and side plates disposed on both sides of the main plate laterally. The two side plates can rotate horizontally relative to the main plate to form a semi-enclosed space together with the main plate, or retract to be parallel to the main plate.
[0005] Furthermore, both side plates are hinged to the main board, and the two side plates can be flipped relative to the main board to fit against the sides of the conveyor body to protect the conveyor body.
[0006] Furthermore, a first folding plate is hinged to the lower end of the motherboard. The first folding plate can be folded upward to fit against the motherboard. A first baffle is provided at the lower end of the first folding plate. The first baffle can contact the ground downward. A first fixing member is provided between the first folding plate and the motherboard.
[0007] Furthermore, the first fixing member includes a collar and a first plug. The collar is disposed on the side of the main board away from the conveyor body, and the first plug is connected to the first baffle via a long chain. The first plug can be inserted into the collar to fix the main board and the first folding plate.
[0008] Furthermore, each of the side plates is hinged to a second folding plate at its lower end. Each second folding plate can be folded upward to fit against the corresponding side plate. A second baffle is provided at the lower end of the second folding plate. The second baffle can contact the ground downward. A second fixing member is provided between the second folding plate and the corresponding side plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the second fixing member includes a socket and a second plug. The second plug is vertically mounted on the side plate by a set of elastic fixing members. The second plug can move vertically and elastically reset. The socket matches the second plug and is opened on the lower end face of the second folding plate at the position corresponding to the second plug.
[0010] Furthermore, the elastic fastener includes two horizontally arranged fixing plates and an elastic element. The two fixing plates are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, and each fixing plate has a through hole for the second plug to be inserted into. The outer periphery of the second plug has a protrusion, which is used to contact the upper end face of the fixing plate located below to limit the second plug from falling. The elastic element is located between the upper end face of the protrusion and the lower end face of the fixing plate located above.
[0011] Furthermore, the elastic element is a helical spring, which is sleeved on the outside of the second plug.
[0012] Furthermore, a locking element is provided between the two side plates. When the two side plates are joined together to be parallel to the main board, the locking element is used to fix the position of the two side plates.
[0013] Furthermore, the locking element includes a third bolt and a positioning hole. The third bolt is horizontally disposed on one of the side plates away from the motherboard, and the positioning hole is located on the other side plate away from the motherboard. When the two side plates are engaged, the third bolt can be inserted into the positioning hole to position the two side plates.
[0014] The mobile rotary conveyor with grain baffle of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: the grain baffle mechanism on the conveyor prevents grain from accumulating and burying the conveyor, ensuring the flexibility of the conveyor's movement; it prevents grain from getting stuck in the conveyor, reducing the risk of blockage and damage to the conveyor, and improving the working efficiency and reliability of the conveyor; at the same time, the side plate, the first folding plate and the second folding plate in the grain baffle mechanism can all be stored in close contact with the main plate, making it easy to store when the conveyor is not in operation.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 The present invention relates to a mobile rotary conveyor with a grain-blocking plate, comprising a conveyor body 1 and a grain-blocking mechanism 2 disposed on the conveyor body 1. The conveyor body 1 includes a vehicle body 11 and a conveyor belt 12 disposed on the upper end of the vehicle body 11. The grain-blocking mechanism 2 is disposed on the vehicle body 11 at a position below the conveyor belt 12. Specifically, the grain-blocking mechanism 2 is disposed on the vehicle body 11 at a position corresponding to the end of the conveyor belt 12 in the conveying direction, so as to block the conveyor body 1 from grain falling due to accumulation and landslide, and prevent the conveyor body 1 from being buried by the accumulated grain.
[0025] Please refer to Figure 2 The grain blocking mechanism 2 includes a main board 21 on the conveyor body 1 and side plates 22 on both sides of the main board 21. The two side plates 22 can rotate horizontally relative to the main board 21 to form a semi-enclosed space together with the main board 21, or be folded up to be parallel to the main board 21.
[0026] The main board 21 is vertically mounted at the end of the vehicle body 11, and its width is greater than that of the vehicle body 11 to cover it. A first folding plate 211 is hinged to the lower end of the main board 21, allowing it to fold upwards to fit against the main board 21. A first baffle 212 is provided at the lower end of the first folding plate 211. When the first folding plate 211 is folded outwards to its maximum angle (i.e., flipped to vertical), the lower end of the first baffle 212 can contact the ground downwards, and its lower end tilts from near the vehicle body 11 to away from it, thus better preventing grain from sliding. A first fixing member is provided between the first folding plate 211 and the first main board 21 to maintain their contact. The first fixing member includes a collar 213 and a first plug 214. The collar 213 is disposed on the side of the main board 21 away from the conveyor body 1. The first plug 214 is connected to the first baffle 212 by a long chain 215. The first plug 214 can be inserted into the collar 213 to fix the main board 21 and the first folding plate 211.
[0027] Please refer to Figure 3 The two side plates 22 are respectively hinged to the main board 21. Both side plates 22 can rotate relative to the main board 21 to contact the sides of the vehicle body 11, thereby cooperating with the main board 21 to partially enclose the vehicle body 11 and protect it from being buried by grain. Each side plate 22 is vertically arranged, and the width of each side plate 22 is less than half the width of the main board 21. The sum of the widths of the two side plates 22 is less than the width of the main board 21 so that they can be folded to one side of the main board 21. A second folding plate 221 is hinged to the lower end of each side plate 22, allowing the second folding plate 221 to fold upwards to fit against the side plate 22. The lower end of the second folding plate 221 is provided with a second baffle 222. When the second folding plate 221 is folded outward to its maximum angle (i.e., flipped to vertical), the second baffle 222 can contact the ground downward, and the lower end of the second baffle 222 tilts from away from the other side plate 22 to closer to the other side plate 22, thus better preventing the grain from sliding. Please refer to... Figure 4A second fixing member is provided between the second folding plate 221 and the corresponding side plate 22. The second fixing member is used to fix the second folding plate 221 and the corresponding side plate 22 in a fitted state. The second fixing member includes an insertion hole 223, a second plug 224, and an elastic fixing member for fixing the second plug 224 to the side plate 22. The elastic fixing member includes two horizontally arranged fixing pieces 225 and a first elastic member 226. The two fixing pieces 225 are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, and each of the two fixing pieces 225 has a through hole for the second plug 224 to be inserted into. The second plug 224 is inserted into the two through holes. The outer periphery of the second plug 224 is provided with a protrusion 227. The protrusion 227 has several protrusions arranged at intervals around the outer periphery of the second plug 224. The protrusion 227 is used to contact the upper end surface of the fixing piece 225 located below to limit the second plug 224 from falling. In the illustrated embodiment, the first elastic element 226 is a helical spring, which is sleeved around the second plug 224. The lower end of the helical spring contacts the upper end face of the plurality of protrusions 227, and the upper end contacts the lower end face of the fixing piece 225 located above. The lower end of the second plug 224 extends downward beyond the fixing piece 225 below, and the upper end of the second plug 224 extends upward beyond the fixing piece 225 above. The insertion hole 223 matches the second plug 224 and is opened on the lower end face of the second folding plate 221 at a position corresponding to the second plug 224.
[0028] Please refer to Figure 5A locking member 23 is provided between the two side plates 22. When the two side plates 22 are engaged to be parallel to the main board 21, the locking member 23 is used to fix the position of the two side plates 22. The locking member 23 includes a third pin 231 and a positioning hole 232. Two first vertical pieces 233 are provided on the side of one of the side plates 22 away from its connection with the main board 21. The two first vertical pieces 233 are both vertically arranged and spaced apart in the horizontal direction. Each of the two first vertical pieces 233 has a through hole for the third pin 231 to be inserted into. The third pin 231 is horizontally inserted into the two through holes. The third plug 231 has abutment blocks 234 protruding outward from its outer periphery. Several abutment blocks 234 are spaced apart around the outer periphery of the third plug 231. These abutment blocks 234 are used to contact the first vertical piece 233 located closer to the motherboard 21. A second elastic element 235 is provided between the abutment blocks 234 and one of the first vertical pieces 233 located further away from the motherboard 21. In the illustrated embodiment, the second elastic element 235 is a helical spring, which is sleeved on the outside of the third plug 231, with both ends of the helical spring abutting against the several abutment blocks 234 and the first vertical piece 233 located further away from the motherboard 21. When the second elastic element 235 naturally extends, two of the first vertical pieces 233 extend from both ends of the third plug 231. A second vertical piece 236 is provided on the side of the other side plate 22 away from its connection point with the motherboard 21. The second vertical piece 236 is vertically arranged and its position corresponds to the two first vertical pieces 233. The positioning hole 232 is provided on the second vertical piece 236 for the insertion of the third plug 231.
[0029] The working method of one embodiment of the mobile rotary conveyor with grain baffle of this utility model is as follows: In the initial state, both second folding plates 221 are folded upward to fit against the corresponding side plates 22, and the second plugs 224 are inserted into the corresponding plug holes 223 to fix the second folding plates 221; the first folding plate 211 is folded upward to fit against the main plate 21, and the first plugs 214 are inserted into the collar 213 to fix the first folding plate 211; the two side plates 22 are folded towards the main plate 21 to fit against the main plate 21, and the third plugs 231 are inserted into the positioning holes 232 to fix the two side plates 22.
[0030] When conveying grain, the conveyor body 1 is moved to the desired position, and the third bolt 231 is pulled to move out of the positioning hole 232. At this time, the two side plates 22 can be folded open away from the main plate 21. Releasing the pull on the third bolt 231 causes it to reset under the restoring force of the second elastic member 235. The two side plates 22 are then folded outwards until they contact the sides of the vehicle body 11.
[0031] Pull the first plug 214 out of the collar 213, and fold the first folding plate 211 downward so that the first baffle 212 contacts the ground. Pull the second plug 224 upward to move it out of the insertion hole 223. At this time, the second folding plate 221 is no longer fixed. Fold the second folding plate 221 downward so that the second baffle 222 contacts the opposite side. Release the pull on the second plug 224, and the second plug 224 returns to its original position downward under the rebound force of the first elastic member 226.
[0032] At this time, the conveyor belt 12 can be turned on to transport grain. As the grain accumulates into a mound, the grain continuously transported from the conveyor belt 12 will not only make the mound higher, but will also slide down the slope of the mound. This sliding grain will be blocked by the main board 21 and the two side plates 22, so that the wheels of the vehicle body 11 will not be buried.
[0033] Compared with the prior art, the mobile rotary conveyor with grain baffle of this utility model is equipped with a grain baffle mechanism on the conveyor to prevent grain from accumulating and burying the conveyor, ensuring the flexibility of the conveyor's movement; it prevents grain from getting stuck in the conveyor, reducing the risk of conveyor blockage and damage, and improving the working efficiency and reliability of the conveyor; at the same time, the side plate, the first folding plate and the second folding plate in the grain baffle mechanism can all be stored in close contact with the main plate, making it easy to store when the conveyor is not in operation.
