[0020] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0021] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, a bucket elevator for additive production with an auxiliary cleaning structure includes a bucket elevator housing 1, a traction belt 2 inside the bucket elevator housing 1, and a bucket structure 3 fixedly installed on the traction belt 2. The bucket structure 3 consists of a bucket body 8 and a movable base plate 12, which is slidably installed inside the bucket body 8. Two sliding connection components 4 are installed on the bucket body 8 and the movable base plate 12. The sliding connection components 4 are slidably connected to the bucket body 8 and fixedly connected to the movable base plate 12. The sliding connection components 4 are supported by U-shaped supports. The bucket elevator consists of a frame 13, a mounting plate 14, and drag-reducing ball bearings 16. The mounting plate 14 is fixedly installed at one end of the U-shaped bracket 13. There are four drag-reducing ball bearings 16, all of which are rotatably installed inside the mounting plate 14. Two vibration components 5 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the bucket body 8. The vibration components 5 consist of vibration springs 17 and impact plates 18. There are two vibration springs 17, each fixedly installed at one end of the impact plate 18. A feed hopper 6 is fixedly installed at the lower part of the bucket elevator shell 1, and a discharge pipe 7 is fixedly installed at the upper part of the bucket elevator shell 1. In use, the material to be conveyed can be placed into the feed hopper. 6. The material falls into the bucket structure 3. Then, as the drive equipment inside the bucket elevator housing 1 operates, the traction belt 2 drives the bucket structure 3 to rise. When the bucket structure 3 is lifted to the top of the bucket elevator, it tilts down to dump the material, which then falls out from the discharge pipe 7. At the same time, under the influence of gravity, the movable base plate 12 moves towards the inlet and outlet of the bucket body 8. At this time, the movable base plate 12 scrapes and cleans the inner wall of the bucket body 8, thereby removing the material adhering to the inner wall of the bucket body 8. Simultaneously, the sliding contact... The sliding connection component 4 slides on the hopper body 8. Finally, the sliding connection component 4 will collide with the impact plate 18 on the vibration component 5. Under the action of this impact force and the elastic force of the vibration spring 17, the movable base plate 12 will vibrate, and the material attached to the movable base plate 12 will be shaken off, thus completing the automatic cleaning of the hopper structure 3. When the hopper structure 3 moves to the bottom of the bucket elevator, the hopper structure 3 will flip up. At this time, the movable base plate 12 and the sliding connection component 4 will be reset by gravity, thus starting the next cycle.
[0022] Furthermore, two anti-detachment guide grooves 9 are symmetrically opened at the left and right ends of the hopper body 8 on the hopper structure 3, and two connecting grooves 10 are symmetrically opened at the bottom of the hopper body 8. The connecting grooves 10 are connected to the anti-detachment guide grooves 9. Two ball grooves 11 are symmetrically opened on the inner wall of the anti-detachment guide grooves 9. When the hopper structure 3 is flipped up or down, the movable bottom plate 12 will slide inside the hopper body 8 under the influence of gravity. When the movable bottom plate 12 slides inside the hopper body 8, the movable bottom plate 12 will scrape against the inner wall of the hopper body 8.
[0023] Furthermore, the U-shaped bracket 13 on the sliding connection assembly 4 is fixedly installed at one end of the movable base plate 12. The U-shaped bracket 13 is simultaneously inserted into the connecting groove 10 and the anti-detachment guide rail groove 9. The mounting plate 14 on the sliding connection assembly 4 is slidably installed in the anti-detachment guide rail groove 9. Four spherical grooves 15 are symmetrically opened at both ends of the mounting plate 14. The drag-reducing balls 16 are rotatably installed in the spherical grooves 15, and the drag-reducing balls 16 are also located in the ball grooves 11. When the hopper structure 3 is tilted up or down, the sliding connection assembly 4 will slide on the hopper body 8. At the same time, the drag-reducing balls 16 will generate friction and rotate with the hopper body 8. Thus, the presence of the drag-reducing balls 16 can reduce the sliding resistance of the sliding connection assembly 4.
[0024] Furthermore, the vibration component 5 is located inside the anti-detachment guide groove 9, and the vibration spring 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the anti-detachment guide groove 9. When the impact plate 18 on the vibration component 5 is impacted by the sliding connection component 4, the vibration spring 17 will generate elastic deformation, which will help the sliding connection component 4 and the movable base plate 12 to generate violent vibration.
