Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steep-angle belt technology for feeders, and in particular to a material-pulling and cleaning device for steep-angle belts of feeders. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the feeder is one of the main conveying equipment on the cigarette manufacturing production line, suitable for buffering, conveying, and quantitatively feeding tobacco materials such as tobacco sheets, shredded tobacco, tobacco stems, and shredded tobacco stalks at different processing stages. Existing feeders mainly consist of two conveyor belts: a storage conveyor belt and a steep-angle belt with a side chain structure. In actual operation, during the continuous lifting and conveying process, the steep-angle belt often experiences material stagnation and accumulation, resulting in a decrease in the tobacco conveying capacity and fluctuations in material supply stability.

[0003] To ensure a stable supply of tobacco shreds, existing technologies use a brush-type feed roller in steep-angle belts. The brush filaments of this roller are a bundle of multiple nylon filaments arranged in a parallel circumferential array. This type of brush roller can smooth the material and prevent accumulation, while also providing some cleaning ability and reducing material adhesion in steep-angle belts. However, due to the high density and hardness of the filaments, the roller easily breaks down the material during rotation. This broken material accumulates inside the filaments, and the material inside the roller is constantly being thrown out, causing dust pollution, material waste, and a reduction in material quality. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a steep-angle belt feeding and cleaning device for a feeder, which solves the problem that the existing brush feeding rollers in the prior art are prone to crushing materials when rotating, causing dust pollution, as well as material waste and reduced material quality.

[0005] This utility model solves the above-mentioned technical problems through the following technical means: a feeder steep angle belt material guiding and cleaning device, including a bracket, the bracket being disposed above the feeder steep angle belt, the steep angle belt including a steep angle belt body and leak-proof skirts disposed on both sides of the steep angle belt body; inclined guide plates are provided at both ends of the bracket, the guide plates at both ends are in a figure-eight shape along the direction of travel of the steep angle belt, the guide plates are used to guide the material on the leak-proof skirts of the steep angle belt to the steep angle belt body;

[0006] A set of flexible material-pushing plates is also provided on the bracket located between the two guide plates, and the bottom of the flexible material-pushing plates is in contact with the steep-angle belt body.

[0007] Optionally, the front side of the flexible material-pushing sheet is a friction surface. The front side of the flexible material-pushing sheet contacts the material, and setting it as a friction surface enhances its effect of smoothing the material.

[0008] Optionally, each of the flexible material feeders has dimensions of 750×55×2mm. The use of multiple flexible material feeders, compared to a single material feeder plate, improves flexibility and adaptability to materials. Furthermore, when a single flexible material feeder experiences significant wear, it can be replaced individually, reducing costs.

[0009] Optionally, each of the flexible material scrapers has a detachable metal strip on its back for weight increase. The metal strip increases the weight of the flexible material scraper, ensuring its smoothing and cleaning effect.

[0010] Optionally, the support is positioned above the inclined starting section of the steep-angle strip. Positioning the support above the inclined starting section of the steep-angle strip prevents excessive material accumulation.

[0011] Optionally, the height of the bracket relative to the steep-angle belt body is adjustable, improving the applicability of the device.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. This utility model uses a bracket set above the inclined starting section of the steep-angle belt. The bracket is equipped with a flexible material-pushing plate and a material-guiding plate. When relatively loose material passes through the flexible material-pushing plate, the gravity of the flexible material-pushing plate is used to smooth out the material that is piled up higher, so that the material passing through the material-pushing cleaning device is evenly distributed on the steep-angle belt body. At the same time, the material-guiding plate is used to guide a small amount of material on the leak-proof skirt of the steep-angle belt to the steep-angle belt body, so as to prevent the material from accumulating on the leak-proof skirt.

[0014] 2. The flexible material feeding plate of this utility model can also pass through the rake nails or material baffles spaced apart on the steep angle belt body without obstruction. Furthermore, when passing through the rake nails or material baffles, it can also carry away the material stuck on the rake nails or material baffles, preventing the material from depositing and adhering to the rake nails or material baffles, thus playing a certain cleaning role.

[0018] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can understand the advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and represent schematic diagrams, not actual pictures.

In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that if terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", etc. indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the figure, they are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the terms used to describe the positional relationship in the figure are only for illustrative purposes and should not be construed as limiting this utility model. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above-mentioned terms can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0020] like Figures 1-2 As shown, this utility model discloses a feeder steep-angle belt material guiding and cleaning device, which includes a support 1. The support 1 is set above the steep-angle belt of the feeder. The existing steep-angle belt includes a steep-angle belt body 21 and anti-leakage skirts 22 set on both sides of the steep-angle belt body 21. Material baffles for enhancing conveying capacity are provided at intervals on the material bearing surface of the steep-angle belt body 21. Inclined guide plates 11 are set at both ends of the support 1. The guide plates 11 at both ends are in a figure-eight shape along the direction of travel of the steep-angle belt. The guide plates 11 are used to guide the material on the anti-leakage skirts 22 of the steep-angle belt to the steep-angle belt body 21. A set of flexible material guiding pieces 12 is also provided on the support 1 between the two guide plates 11. The set consists of sixteen independent flexible material guiding pieces 12 adjacent to each other. The bottom of the flexible material guiding pieces 12 is in contact with the steep-angle belt body 21.

[0021] In the tobacco processing workshop, the feeder is used to feed materials to the shredder. Before entering the steep-angle belt of the feeder, the material (mainly tobacco leaves) is conveyed by a vibrating trough (vibrating conveyor), and the material is fully vibrated, resulting in a relatively loose state. Therefore, it is feasible to install a flexible material-pushing plate 12, which uses the gravity of the flexible material-pushing plate 12 to smooth out the material that has accumulated to a high degree, so that the material passing through the material-pushing cleaning device is more uniform.

[0022] In this embodiment, the front side of the flexible material-pushing sheet 12 is a friction surface. The front side of the flexible material-pushing sheet 12, which is the side that contacts the material, is set as a friction surface to ensure smoothing and cleaning effects. For example, the flexible material-pushing sheet 12 uses relatively safe rubber materials such as silicone rubber. Such rubber materials naturally have a certain degree of friction on their surface, and the friction of the front side of the flexible material-pushing sheet 12 can be increased by setting patterns, etc.

[0023] In this embodiment, each flexible material guide 12 is a strip with a length of 750mm × 55mm × 2mm, and its length can be adjusted according to actual needs. Compared with a single material guide plate, the arrangement of multiple flexible material guides 12 improves flexibility and adaptability to materials. At the same time, when a flexible material guide 12 is worn significantly, it can be replaced individually, reducing costs.

[0024] In this embodiment, each flexible material scraper 12 has a detachable metal strip on its back side for adding weight. A metal strip of appropriate weight is selected to increase the weight of the flexible material scraper, ensuring its smoothing and cleaning effect.

[0025] In this embodiment, the bracket 1 is positioned above the inclined starting section of the steep-angle belt, and the height of the bracket 1 relative to the steep-angle belt body 21 is adjustable. For example, the feeder bracket is symmetrically provided with arc-shaped grooves or inclined grooves, and the bracket 1 is fixed in the arc-shaped grooves or inclined grooves by threads. By adjusting the position of the bracket 1 in the arc-shaped grooves or inclined grooves by tightening or loosening the threads, the height of the bracket 1 relative to the steep-angle belt body 21 can be adjusted.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0027] In the tobacco processing workshop, tobacco leaves are vibrated and conveyed to the steep-angle belt of the feeder. When the material passes through the material-pushing and cleaning device located above the inclined starting section of the steep-angle belt body 21, the material is fully vibrated and becomes relatively loose. The material passes through the flexible material-pushing plate 12, which pushes open the bottom end of the flexible material-pushing plate 12. This allows the gravity of the flexible material-pushing plate 12 to smooth out the material that has accumulated to a high level, so that the material passing through the material-pushing and cleaning device is evenly distributed on the steep-angle belt body 21. At the same time, the guide plate 11 is used to guide a small amount of material on the anti-leakage skirt 22 of the steep-angle belt to the steep-angle belt body 21, so as to prevent the material from accumulating on the anti-leakage skirt.

[0028] During this process, the flexible material feeding plate 12 can also pass through the rake nails or material baffles spaced apart on the steep angle belt body 21 without obstruction. When passing through the rake nails or material baffles, it can also carry away the material stuck on the rake nails or material baffles, preventing the material from depositing and adhering to the rake nails or material baffles, thus playing a certain cleaning role.

[0029] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model. Technologies, shapes, and structural parts not described in detail in this utility model are all known technologies.
