DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The utility model will be further explained in detail in connection with the embodiments below.

[0020] A conveyor belt automatic cleaning device, like Figure 1 , is composed of a guide gutter 1, an air curtain sprayer 2, a connecting hose 3, a pressure regulating valve 4, a shunt valve 5, a gas transmission branch pipeline 6, a shunt 7, a gas transmission main pipeline 8, a gas storage tank 9, a pressure gauge 10, an air compressor 11, a sprayer bracket 18, and an air curtain spray head 20.

[0021] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , the utility model discloses a guide gutter 1 arranged below the conveyor belt 17 (that is, below the rack drive roller), an air curtain sprayer 2 located between the guide gutter 1 and the conveyor belt 17, a plurality of air curtain spray heads 20 arranged on the air curtain sprayer 2, a connecting hose 3 connected to the air inlet end of the air curtain sprayer 2, a pressure regulating valve 4 arranged on the connecting hose 3, a shunt 7 connected to the other end of the connecting hose 3, a plurality of gas transmission branch pipelines 6 arranged on the shunt 7, a shunt valve 5 arranged on each gas transmission branch pipeline 6, a pressure regulating valve 4 arranged at the end of each gas transmission branch pipeline 6, a gas transmission main pipeline 8 connected to the other end of the shunt 7, a gas storage tank 9 connected to the gas transmission main pipeline 8, a pressure gauge 10 arranged on the gas storage tank 9, an air compressor 11 connected to the air inlet of the gas storage tank 9, and a power line 12 electrically connected to the air compressor 11.

[0022] The power line 12 is electrically connected to the conveyor electrical control cabinet 13, and the outlet of the guide gutter 1 is located above another set of conveyor belts 17 used for collecting the ash soil, so that the falling stone ash soil can be concentrated on the lower conveyor belt and transported to the stockpile, reducing the labor intensity of cleaning the conveyor belt 17 corridor.

[0023] The guide gutter 1 is funnel-shaped, and the guide gutter 1 can realize closed transfer of the falling ash soil, preventing dust dispersion. The outlet of the guide gutter 1 is directly opposite the upper side of the lower conveyor belt, ensuring that the concentrated stone ash soil falls on the next set of conveyor belts. The guide gutter 1 finally concentrates the falling stone ash soil on the lower conveyor belt 17 and transports it to the stockpile, reducing the labor intensity of cleaning the conveyor belt 17 corridor.

[0024] The gas transmission sub-pipeline 6 is connected with a pressure regulating valve 4 at the end, and the pressure regulating valve 4 is connected with the air curtain jet 2 through a connecting hose 3, so as to facilitate equipment installation and component maintenance and replacement.

[0025] In Figure 1 , Figure 2 , the air compressor 11 is connected with the conveying belt electrical control cabinet 13 through the power line 12, and is kept in a synchronous start-stop associated state. When the conveying belt 17 starts to operate, the air compressor 11 is started by the conveying belt electrical control cabinet 13, and compressed air is rapidly delivered to the air storage tank 9, and then is transmitted to the sub-pipeline 7 through the gas transmission main pipeline 8, and then is delivered to different series of conveying belts 17. The sub-pipeline valve 5 connected in series in the gas transmission sub-pipeline 6 controls the start-stop of the sub-pipeline gas delivery. The gas transmission sub-pipeline 6 is connected with a pressure regulating valve 4 at the end, and the pressure regulating valve 4 is connected with the air curtain jet 2 through a connecting hose 3, and the connecting hose 3 is a metal bellows. The high-pressure gas forms an air curtain below the conveying belt 17 to blow the adhered stone and soil of the conveying belt 17 to the guide chute 1, and then is discharged to the conveying belt 17 below and finally is discharged to the stockpile, so as to realize automatic cleaning of the conveying belt.

[0026] The number of the gas transmission sub-pipeline 6 is 3-8, and five are selected in the device. The number is selected according to the specific situation. Each gas transmission sub-pipeline 6 is finally connected with an air curtain jet 2, and the air curtain jet 2 realizes the automatic cleaning function of the conveying belt 17 by outputting high-pressure air curtain.

[0027] In combination Figure 1 , the pressure gauge 10 can display the gas pressure in the pipeline in real time. When the device components appear to be blocked, such as the air curtain jet 20, the pressure gauge 10 will display abnormal pressure, reminding the point inspection personnel to maintain the device.

[0028] In combination Figure 3 , the pressure regulating valve 4 plays a whole adjusting role on the delivery gas pressure, realizes the average distribution of each sub-pipeline gas pressure, and guarantees the cleaning effect. The flexible connection of the connecting hose 3 realizes the flexible movement of the relatively fixed pressure regulating valve 4 relative to the air curtain jet 2, and facilitates the final debugging and installation of the whole device.

[0029] In combination Figure 3 , the guide chute 1 is located at the lowermost part of the rack closed bin 19. The rack closed bin 19 is in a fully closed state except the conveying belt inlet, so as to ensure that a small amount of stone and soil blown into the rack closed bin 19 will slowly pass and slide to the funnel-shaped guide chute 1.

[0030] In combination Figure 3 , the air curtain jet 2 is installed at a position close to the opening of the rack closed bin 19 between the conveying belt clamping wheel 16 and the conveying belt driving drum 14, and is guaranteed to be in parallel with the conveying belt driving drum 14.

[0031] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 The spray air curtain of the device air curtain nozzle 20 forms an angle of 40° to 60° with the conveyor belt 17, preferably 56°. The air curtain nozzle 20 and the air curtain sprayer 2 are fixed by threads. When part of the air curtain nozzle 20 is damaged, it can be replaced individually.

[0032] Combination Figure 4 The air curtain sprayer 2 is fixed at both ends to the end columns of the conveyor belt 17 frame via the sprayer bracket 18, meaning the air curtain sprayer 2 is fixed to the conveyor belt frame support frame 15. This fixing is achieved through welding for greater stability. The sprayer bracket 18 is L-shaped, with an arc-shaped section corresponding to the air curtain sprayer 2. The air curtain sprayer 2 is made of galvanized pipe and is installed within the arc-shaped section, fixed below the return conveyor belt near the conveyor head, and reinforced to the sprayer bracket 17 by welding.

[0033] This device uses an air compressor 11 to pressurize air, which is then transmitted to the air curtain nozzle 20 of the air curtain injector 2 through the gas transmission branch pipeline 6. A high-pressure air curtain is formed below the conveyor belt 17, and the air force blows the dust and soil adhering to the conveyor belt 17 into the closed dust guide chute 1 and then into the stone discharge outlet, thereby realizing the automatic cleaning function of the conveyor belt 17.

[0034] This device successfully solves the problem of automatically cleaning up adhering stone and soil under the conveyor belt 17, preventing soil from falling into the bearings of the conveyor belt clamping wheel 16 and conveyor belt idlers, thus avoiding increased bearing wear, extending the service life of the idlers, significantly reducing equipment failure rate, saving equipment maintenance costs, preventing soil from falling and accumulating under the conveyor belt in the corridor, reducing the cleaning work of the conveyor belt corridor, reducing the labor intensity of operators, reducing dust in the corridor, and improving the environment of the conveyor belt corridor. It has significant economic, social and environmental benefits and lays a solid foundation for the construction of green mines.
