Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a self-ejecting chain conveyor and a chain-plate chip conveyor, belonging to the field of machine tool accessories technology. Background Technology
[0002] In traditional chain-plate chip conveyor applications, during continuous operation, fine debris and impurities can easily seep into the spaces between the upper and lower chain plates due to gaps in the connections. Accumulated debris is not only difficult to remove using conventional methods, but it also gradually increases, raising the risk of chain plate jamming. Once chain plate jamming occurs, it not only directly affects the normal operation of the chip conveyor and reduces production efficiency, but may also lead to more serious mechanical failures, thereby shortening the overall service life of the chain-plate chip conveyor.
[0003] Furthermore, traditional chain-plate chip conveyors lack a self-cleaning mechanism, requiring operators to perform regular manual cleaning. This not only increases maintenance costs but also affects the automation level of the production line. Improper operation during manual cleaning can further damage the chain plates or other components of the chip conveyor, accelerating equipment wear.
[0004] In summary, existing chain plate chip conveyors have significant shortcomings in chip handling and self-cleaning capabilities. There is an urgent need for a self-ejecting chain plate and chain plate chip conveyor that can automatically and effectively discharge fine chips, reduce the risk of jamming, and extend the service life of the equipment. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a new technical solution to improve or solve the technical problems existing in the prior art as described above.
[0006] The technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows: A self-ejecting chain conveyor includes multiple chain plate bodies connected end to end. Each chain plate body has a chain plate edge bushing at both its front and rear ends. Adjacent chain plate bodies are connected by the chain plate edge bushings and pins. The chain conveyor also includes an opening and closing chain plate, which includes a middle chain shaft cylinder and a baffle. A portion of the chain plate body has a chain plate notch. The opening and closing chain plate is movably and closably disposed at the chain plate notch via the middle chain shaft cylinder and pins. The baffle is capable of blocking the chain plate notch.
[0007] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.
[0008] Furthermore, the bushings of two adjacent chain plates are arranged in a cross pattern.
[0009] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the cross-arranged pin sleeves enable the chain plate to better distribute stress when bearing load, improve the overall stability and load-bearing capacity of the chain plate, and thus extend the service life of the chain plate conveyor chain.
[0010] Furthermore, the baffle is a straight-line structure.
[0011] The advantages of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are that the straight-line baffle design is simple and easy to manufacture, and can effectively prevent material leakage from the gap of the chain plate, thus ensuring the conveying efficiency and accuracy of the conveyor chain.
[0012] Furthermore, one end of the baffle is connected to the intermediate chain shaft cylinder, and the other end of the baffle is provided with an arc-shaped baffle plate, the shape of which is adapted to the shape of the chain plate edge bushing.
[0013] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the arc-shaped baffle can be tightly attached to the edge pin sleeve of the chain plate when the opening and closing chain plate is closed. This not only ensures that the gap of the chain plate is effectively blocked during the conveying process to prevent material leakage, but also improves the sealing performance and stability of the opening and closing chain plate.
[0014] A chain plate type chip conveyor includes the aforementioned self-ejecting chain plate conveyor chain.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: The self-ejecting chain conveyor of this utility model can effectively discharge some small debris that enters the upper and lower chain plates through the gaps in the chain plate connection during the operation of the chain plate chip conveyor, realize the self-cleaning of the chain plates, reduce the risk of jamming, and extend the service life of the chain plate chip conveyor.

Furthermore, the concepts of "connection" and "linkage" mentioned in this application, unless otherwise specified, are considered to include both direct connection (linkage) and indirect connection (linkage).
[0024] When interpreting the description of this application, it should be clarified that terms such as "upper," "lower," "front," "back," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "clockwise," and "counterclockwise," indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the perspective and layout shown in the accompanying drawings. They are intended to facilitate explanation and simplify the description process, and are not absolute limitations on the actual location, construction method, or operating mode of the described device or element. Therefore, these terms should not be construed as restrictive interpretations of the content of this application.
[0025] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to examples. The examples are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0026] like Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, a self-ejecting conveyor chain includes multiple chain plate bodies 1 connected end to end. Each chain plate body 1 has a chain plate edge bushing 2 at both ends. Adjacent chain plate bodies 1 are connected by the chain plate edge bushing 2 and a pin to form a continuous conveyor chain. The chain chain chain chain 3 also includes an opening and closing chain plate 3, which includes an intermediate chain shaft cylinder 31 and a baffle 32. A portion of the chain plate body 1 has a chain plate notch 4. The opening and closing chain plate 3 is movably and closably disposed at the chain plate notch 4 by the intermediate chain shaft cylinder 31 and the pin. The baffle 32 can block the chain plate notch 4.
[0027] The bushings of two adjacent chain plates 1 are arranged in a cross pattern. The cross-arranged bushings allow the chain plates to better distribute stress when bearing load, improving the overall stability and load-bearing capacity of the chain plates, thereby extending the service life of the chain plate conveyor chain.
[0028] The baffle 32 is a straight-line structure baffle 32. The straight-line structure baffle 32 is simple in design and easy to manufacture. It can effectively prevent material from leaking from the chain plate notch 4, ensuring the conveying efficiency and accuracy of the conveyor chain.
[0029] In another embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, one end of the baffle 32 is connected to the intermediate chain shaft cylinder 31, and the other end of the baffle 32 is provided with an arc-shaped baffle 33. The shape of the arc-shaped baffle 33 is adapted to the shape of the chain plate edge bushing 2. The arc-shaped baffle 33 allows the opening and closing chain plate 3 to be tightly mounted on the chain plate edge pin bushing when the chain plate 3 is closed. This not only ensures that the chain plate notch 4 is effectively blocked during the conveying process of the opening and closing chain plate 3 to prevent material leakage, but also improves the sealing performance and stability of the opening and closing chain plate 3.
[0030] The working method of the self-ejecting conveyor chain of this utility model is as follows:
[0031] When the opening / closing chain plate 3 moves to the lower position with the conveyor chain, it will naturally droop due to its own weight, opening the chain plate notch 4. Under the flushing action of the cutting fluid, tiny debris hidden between the chain plate bodies 1 is washed to the area of the chain plate notch 4 by the cutting fluid. The debris accumulated between the upper and lower chain plates falls into the bottom of the chip conveyor through the chain plate notch 4, effectively removing the debris and maintaining the cleanliness and efficient operation of the conveyor chain. When the opening / closing chain plate 3 continues to move with the conveyor chain and reaches the upper position, it will fall and automatically close due to its own weight, blocking the notch on the chain plate and preventing other debris or impurities from entering between the upper and lower chain plates, maintaining the cleanliness and smooth operation of the chain plate interior.
[0032] A chain plate type chip conveyor includes the aforementioned self-ejecting chain plate conveyor chain.
[0033] This utility model's self-discharging chain conveyor changes the traditional chain plate form by adding an opening and closing chain plate 3, which can effectively discharge some small debris that enters the gaps between the upper and lower chain plates during the operation of the chain plate chip conveyor. This effectively achieves chain plate self-cleaning, reduces the risk of jamming, and extends the service life of the chain plate chip conveyor.
[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
