Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of auxiliary mechanical equipment for conveyor belts, and in particular to a conveyor belt cleaner. Background Technology

[0002] Belt conveyors, commonly known as conveyor belts, are frequently used in industrial and agricultural applications for loading and unloading materials. They offer high transport efficiency, simple structure, and easy maintenance. For materials that easily adhere to the conveyor belt, a conveyor belt cleaner is required to scrape away the material adhering to the belt in real time. Otherwise, this material may fall outside the discharge port, and some highly adhesive materials may accumulate on the conveyor belt, making it increasingly heavy and eventually unable to operate.

[0003] To ensure the blades on the conveyor belt cleaner adhere to the conveyor belt, a flexible mechanism is needed to continuously press or maintain the scraper against or near the conveyor belt. Mechanical devices such as torsion springs are commonly used. However, common flexible mechanisms are relatively complex. Maintaining the torsion spring and applying its elastic torque to the scraper requires a series of mounting and transmission structures. Simplifying the structure of the flexible mechanism, making it easier to manufacture, assemble, and disassemble, would have a positive impact on the use and maintenance of material handling equipment.

[0028] The technical solution of this utility model and how the technical solution solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments.

[0029] The conveyor belt cleaner provided in the embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a scraper assembly 100, a connecting seat 200, and a support rod 300; the connecting seat 200 is an integrally molded polyurethane elastic seat, the scraper assembly 100 is detachably connected to the connecting seat 200, and one end of the support rod 300 is connected to the connecting seat 200.

[0030] The conveyor belt cleaner provided by this utility model has a key feature: the connecting seat 200, which provides elastic pressure resistance, is an integrated elastic seat made of polyurethane, an elastic material. The entire connecting seat 200 is a single, integral structure, which can be formed by injection molding or hot pressing. This significantly reduces the structural complexity of the connecting seat 200 and improves its production efficiency, as it differs from previous methods that involved incorporating torsion spring structures and corresponding cavity structures within the connecting seat 200. The scraper assembly 100 is connected to the connecting seat 200. When pressed close to the conveyor belt, the connecting seat 200 undergoes elastic deformation, applying an elastic reaction force to the scraper assembly 100, enabling the scraper assembly 100 to continuously and stably scrape away residual material from the conveyor belt.

[0031] The conveyor belt cleaner provided by this utility model adopts an integrally molded polyurethane elastic seat. The entire polyurethane elastic seat is the core elastic generating unit and has no complicated internal structure, which is convenient for manufacturing and easy to connect with the scraper assembly 100 and the support rod 300. This reduces the cost of using the conveyor belt cleaner while ensuring ease of use.

[0032] Optionally, in one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the connecting seat 200 includes an integrally formed main body 210 and an extension 220. The extension 220 has a through hole 221 through which the scraper assembly 100 is connected. The main body 210 of the connecting seat 200 is cylindrical, and the extension 220 extends tangentially from a position on the main body 210. The through hole 221 in the extension 220 allows a portion of the scraper assembly 100 to pass through and be securely connected to the connecting seat 200. This structure allows the main body 210 to function as an elastically deformable body, while the extension 220 primarily transmits force to the main body 210, forming an elastic force on the main body 210 that resists torsion.

[0033] In conjunction with the foregoing embodiments, in one specific implementation, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the main body 210 has several hollowed-out slots 211 along the rotation direction of the scraper assembly 100; a reinforcing rib 230 is provided between the main body 210 and the extension 220. By providing hollowed-out slots 211, on the one hand, the amount of material used in the connecting seat 200 can be reduced, making the connecting seat 200 lighter; on the other hand, it can also facilitate the elastic deformation of the connecting seat 200 and increase the range of elastic deformation.

[0034] Optionally, in another embodiment of this application, such as Figure 2As shown, the scraper assembly 100 includes a connecting rod 110, a clamping frame 120, and a scraper 130; the first end of the connecting rod 110 is connected to the connecting seat 200; the scraper 130 is connected to the clamping frame 120, and the clamping frame 120 is disposed at the second end of the connecting rod 110. Specifically, in one implementation, the second end of the connecting rod 110 is provided with a threaded portion, and the clamping frame 120 is provided with a threaded hole that matches the threaded portion.

[0035] Optionally, in conjunction with the foregoing embodiments, in one implementation, the clamping frame 120 is provided with a blade groove, and the scraper 130 is interference-fitted with the blade groove. The interference fit between the blade groove and the scraper 130 ensures a secure connection and allows for disassembly during replacement, facilitating the use and maintenance of the scraper 130.

[0036] Specifically, in another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, a connecting post 310 is provided at one end of the support rod 300, and several protrusions 311 are evenly distributed on the circumferential surface of the connecting post 310. The end of the support rod 300 that connects to the connecting seat 200 is set in a cylindrical shape, which facilitates the setting of the circumferentially distributed protrusions 311, increases the contact area with the connecting seat 200, improves the firmness between the two, prevents the support rod 300 from coming out of the connecting seat 200, and also ensures that the connecting seat 200 undergoes elastic deformation rather than relative positional change.

[0037] In another embodiment of this utility model, in conjunction with the foregoing embodiments and implementations, one end of the support rod 300 is injection molded to the connecting seat 200, and the connecting post 310 is disposed within the connecting seat 200. Specifically, when one end of the support rod 300 is provided with a connecting post 310, and the connecting post 310 is provided with a protruding strip 311, injection molding can be used to achieve the connection between the support rod 300 and the connecting seat 200 during the production process of the connecting seat 200.

[0038] Those skilled in the art will understand that the terms "first" and "second" discussed in this application are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0039] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0040] In the description of this specification, specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0041] The above description is only a partial embodiment of this application. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this application, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this application.
