Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of coal feeders and relates to a coal feeder cleaning mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the production activities of thermal power plants, coal is usually supplied to the boiler via belt feeders. Since the coal supplied by the feeders is usually wet coal with high viscosity, the portion near the belt may stick to the belt, causing blockage of the feeder, overloading the drive unit, and causing it to stop working.

[0003] Therefore, in actual production, scrapers are usually installed at the end of the feeder belt or at the bottom of the feeder to scrape off the wet coal adhering to the bottom of the feeder. However, during the scraping process, because the belt is a flexible structure, some of the firmly attached wet coal cannot be scraped off. Moreover, after a long period of use, the scrapers wear out, making it impossible to scrape them off effectively. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes a coal feeder cleaning mechanism, which effectively solves the problems in the prior art.
