Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of scraper conveyor technology, specifically a device for preventing material blockage at the bend of a vertical scraper conveyor. Background Technology
[0002] Scraper conveyors are widely used in the transportation and distribution of sludge, grain, oil, and feed industries. They have a long service life and high operational reliability. When the scraper conveyor is lifted vertically, materials fall from a height through gaps and the inclined scraper blades, accumulating at the bottom of the vertical scraper conveyor's bend. This can cause operational difficulties, jamming, casing deformation, and even overload after jamming, resulting in motor burnout and other consequences. This can cause large-scale production stoppages and affect the entire production line.
[0003] Based on this, a vertical scraper conveyor elbow anti-blocking device is now provided, which can eliminate the risk and problem of material accumulation at the bottom of the existing device, causing jamming. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a device for preventing material blockage at the bend of a vertical scraper conveyor, so as to solve the problems in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A device for preventing material blockage at the bend of a vertical scraper conveyor includes: double side plates;
[0007] The collection mechanism is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the double side plates and is used to collect the dropped materials.
[0008] The conveying mechanism is located on the inner surface of the double side plates and is used to lift and convey falling materials.
[0009] Based on the above technical solutions, this utility model also provides the following optional technical solutions:
[0010] In one alternative: the collecting mechanism includes an arc-shaped guide plate, which is fixedly disposed on the inner surface of the two side plates.
[0011] In one alternative: the outer surface of the arc-shaped guide plate is provided with an arc-shaped guide opening.
[0012] In one alternative: the conveying mechanism includes a material trough, which is disposed on the inner surface of the double side plates and is connected to the arc-shaped guide port. A fixed guide rail is provided on the top of the material trough, and a scraper is provided on the outer surface of the fixed guide rail.
[0013] In one alternative: the control end of the fixed guide rail is equipped with a drive motor and an alarm.
[0014] In one alternative: the outer surfaces of the two side plates are rotatably connected to observation ports, and the outer surfaces of the two side plates are slidably provided with openable guide rail covers.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] This invention uses an arc-shaped guide plate to catch falling materials, which then return to the material trough through the arc-shaped guide port and are then transported upwards by a scraper, forming a highly efficient cycle. This device can solve the problem of material blockage at the bend of most vertical scraper conveyors, reducing the risk of downtime and motor burnout caused by blockages, and ensuring the smooth operation of the entire system. It also solves the time cost caused by downtime and the problem of staff having to work on-site for extended periods, saving manpower and resources and resulting in significant economic benefits.

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0023] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, a vertical scraper conveyor elbow anti-clogging device includes: double side plates 1, a collection mechanism and a conveying mechanism; the collection mechanism is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the double side plates 1 for collecting fallen materials; the conveying mechanism is installed on the inner surface of the double side plates 1 for lifting and conveying fallen materials.
[0024] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the collection mechanism includes an arc-shaped guide plate 2, which is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the double side plate 1. An arc-shaped guide port is opened on the outer surface of the arc-shaped guide plate 2. When material falls from a height, it will fall onto the arc-shaped guide plate 2. Most of the material will be reintroduced into the material trough 4 through the arc-shaped guide port, so as to continue transporting the material.
[0025] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the conveying mechanism includes a material trough 4, which is located on the inner surface of the double-sided plate 1. The material trough 4 is connected to the arc-shaped guide port. A fixed guide rail 3 is provided on the top of the material trough 4, and a scraper is provided on the outer surface of the fixed guide rail 3. The control end of the fixed guide rail 3 is equipped with a drive motor and an alarm. The material trough 4 facilitates the storage and collection of falling materials, and the scraper on the fixed guide rail 3 facilitates the upward lifting and transportation of materials in the material trough 4.
[0026] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the outer surface of the double side plate 1 is rotatably connected to the observation port 5, and the outer surface of the double side plate 1 is slidably provided with an openable guide rail cover 6. The setting of the observation port 5 makes it easy to observe the material tank 4. If a large area of falling and blocking occurs, the current of the motor at the control end will increase, an alarm will be issued and the machine will stop. At this time, maintenance personnel need to check the blockage through the observation port 5 to confirm whether it is a hard object stuck or a material blockage. Then, open the openable guide rail cover 6 and remove the accumulated material and hard object.
[0027] The above embodiment discloses a material blocking device for the elbow of a vertical scraper conveyor. Material is transported upwards along the fixed guide rail 3 via the material trough 4. When material falls from a height through gaps and the inclined scraper, it lands on the arc-shaped guide plate 2. Most of the material is then guided back into the material trough 4 through the arc-shaped guide opening on its surface. The scraper then continues to transport the material upwards. If a large-scale blockage occurs, the current of the control motor will increase, triggering an alarm and stopping the machine. Maintenance personnel need to check the blockage through the observation port 5 to determine whether it is due to hard objects or material blockage. Then, the openable guide rail cover 6 is opened to remove the accumulated material and hard objects. Finally, the operator needs to check for deformation of the fixed guide rail 3 and the double side plates 1. If there are no problems, the openable guide rail cover 6 can be installed, and operation can continue.
[0028] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
