Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wheat lees conveying technology, and in particular to a wheat lees trough screw conveyor with anti-sticking function. Background Technology
[0002] Wheat lees refers to the residue left after wheat is used for brewing. Its main components include unfermented starch, protein, and cellulose, which play crucial roles in the brewing process. Wheat lees are rich in nutrients such as protein, vitamins, and minerals, thus having various uses in agriculture and animal husbandry. A screw conveyor belt for wheat lees is a mechanical device used to transport wheat lees, primarily using the rotation of screw blades to move the lees from one location to another.
[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent application number 201420611405.4, which discloses a spiral dewatering wheat bran conveying device. The device includes an auger shaft support, a wheat bran buffer tank mounted on the auger shaft support, an auger shaft installed inside the buffer tank, and an auger mounted on the auger shaft support. A screen is placed between the auger and the buffer tank. The outer diameter of the auger opening gradually decreases from the wheat bran inlet to the outlet. The buffer tank has a drain outlet. This spiral dewatering wheat bran conveying device has the following drawbacks: It lacks a pre-treatment device, making it impossible to dewater the wheat bran before conveying. The moisture in the wheat bran has strong adsorption properties and will adhere to the conveying device during transport, affecting normal transport and increasing unnecessary maintenance costs. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a screw conveyor with anti-sticking function for wheat bran troughs.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A screw conveyor for wheat lees with anti-adhesion function includes a dewatering assembly. The dewatering assembly includes a processing chamber with two sets of sluices symmetrically located on both sides of the inner wall of the processing chamber. A slider is slidably mounted on the sluices. A water collection box is mounted on one side of the slider, and a pull ring is mounted on the other side of the water collection box. A drain rack is installed on the inner wall of the processing chamber, with several sets of drain holes arranged sequentially on the drain rack. A hydraulic telescopic rod is installed on the top outer wall of the processing chamber. The telescopic end of the hydraulic telescopic rod can slide through the processing chamber. A connecting plate is installed at the bottom of the hydraulic telescopic rod, and multiple sets of springs are installed at the bottom of the connecting plate. A dewatering plate is installed at the bottom of the springs. A feeding port is provided on one side of the processing chamber, and a discharge assembly for discharging the dewatered wheat lees and a conveying assembly for conveying the wheat lees are also provided on one side of the processing chamber.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the discharge assembly includes a feeding bin, which is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the processing bin. A discharge port is provided on one side of the processing bin, and the position of the discharge port is adapted to the drain rack. An electric telescopic rod is provided on the outer wall of one side of the processing bin. The telescopic end of one side of the electric telescopic rod is slidably connected to the processing bin. A push plate is installed at the end of the electric telescopic rod, and the push plate is adapted to the drain rack.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the conveying assembly includes a spiral conveying chamber, which is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the processing chamber. The spiral conveying chamber is connected to the feeding chamber. A drive motor is installed on one side of the spiral conveying chamber. The output end of the drive motor is connected to a transmission shaft. One end of the transmission shaft is rotatably connected to the spiral conveying chamber. An auger is installed on the transmission shaft. A discharge port is provided at the bottom of the spiral conveying chamber.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model: a feeding pipe is installed on one side of the processing chamber, one end of the feeding pipe is inclined upwards, and the feeding pipe is connected to the feeding port.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a connecting frame is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the processing chamber by bolts, a rotary motor is installed on one side of the connecting frame, a rotary shaft is connected to the telescopic end of the rotary motor, one end of the rotary shaft is rotatably installed through the connecting frame, and a sealing baffle is installed on the rotary shaft, the size and position of the sealing baffle being adapted to the discharge port.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the bottom outer wall of the processing chamber is fixed with support legs by bolts, and several sets of support legs are provided. The bottom end of the support legs is provided with foot pads, and the bottom of the foot pads is provided with annular patterns.
[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model: a transparent observation window is provided on one side of the water collection box, the observation window is covered with a protective film, and the protective film is provided with scale lines.
[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model: the outer wall of the processing chamber is fixed with handles by bolts, and two sets of handles are provided, which are symmetrically installed on the outer walls of both sides of the processing chamber.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] 1. After entering the processing chamber, the wheat lees fall onto the draining rack. The connecting plate and the squeezing plate can be controlled to fall by the hydraulic telescopic rod. The squeezing plate squeezes the wheat lees on the draining rack to remove water. Squeezing out the water makes it easier to transport the wheat lees. This solves the problem that wheat lees with strong adsorption will stick to the conveying device and affect normal transport. It can also reduce unnecessary maintenance costs. The squeezed water flows into the water collection box through several sets of drainage holes in the draining rack for easy cleaning. When the squeezing plate falls to squeeze water, the deformation of the spring can play a buffer role to avoid the impact force from damaging the draining rack and wheat lees.
[0016] 2. When squeezing water from the wheat lees on the drain rack using the squeezing plate, the rotating motor controls the rotation of the rotating shaft and the sealing baffle. The rotation of the sealing baffle seals the discharge port, thus preventing wheat lees and wastewater from leaking out through the discharge port when water accumulates. When the squeezing is complete and the material is being discharged, the sealing baffle is rotated to open the discharge port.
[0017] 3. The transparent viewing window allows you to check the amount of water collected in the water collection box, making it easy to detect and clean up any excessive water accumulation. The protective film and the scale lines on it provide both protection and easy observation of the specific water volume. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0024] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] A screw conveyor with anti-sticking function for wheat bran troughs, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the device includes a dewatering assembly, which includes a processing chamber 1. The inner wall of the processing chamber 1 has two sets of sliding grooves 5, symmetrically located on both sides of the inner wall. A slider 20 is slidably mounted through the sliding grooves 5. A water collection box 6 is mounted on one side of the slider 20, and a pull ring 7 is mounted on one side of the water collection box 6. A drain rack 25 is installed on the inner wall of the processing chamber 1, with several sets of drain holes arranged sequentially. A hydraulic telescopic rod 12 is bolted to the top outer wall of the processing chamber 1. The telescopic end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 12 can slide through the processing chamber 1. A connecting plate 16 is mounted at the bottom of the hydraulic telescopic rod 12, and multiple sets of springs 17 are mounted at the bottom of the connecting plate 16. A dewatering plate 18 is mounted at the bottom of the springs 17. A feeding port is located on one side of the processing chamber 1, and a discharge assembly for discharging the dewatered wheat lees and a conveying assembly for transporting the wheat lees are also located on one side of the processing chamber 1.
[0027] In use, the wheat lees can be added into the processing chamber 1 through the feeding port. After entering, the wheat lees fall onto the drain rack 25. The slider 20 is slidably installed on the chute 5 to complete the installation of the water collection box 6. After installation, the water collection box 6 is located below the drain rack 25. The connecting plate 16 and the squeezing plate 18 can be controlled to fall by the hydraulic telescopic rod 12. The squeezing plate 18 falls and squeezes the wheat lees on the drain rack 25 to complete the squeezing. Squeezing out the water makes it easier to transport the wheat lees. This solves the problem that the wheat lees with water have strong adsorption and will stick to the conveying device, affecting normal transport. It can reduce unnecessary maintenance costs. The squeezed water flows into the water collection box 6 through several sets of drainage holes opened in the drain rack 25 for collection and cleaning. When the squeezing plate 18 falls and squeezes water, the deformation of the spring 17 can play a buffering role to avoid the impact force of falling too much and damaging the drain rack 25 and the wheat lees.
[0028] The discharge assembly includes a feeding bin 15, which is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the processing bin 1 by bolts. A discharge port is provided on one side of the processing bin 1, and the position of the discharge port is adapted to the drain rack 25. An electric telescopic rod 3 is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the processing bin 1 by bolts. The telescopic end of one side of the electric telescopic rod 3 is slidably connected to the processing bin 1. A push plate 19 is installed at the end of the electric telescopic rod 3, and the push plate 19 is adapted to the drain rack 25.
[0029] In use, the push plate 19 can be moved by the electric telescopic rod 3 to push the wheat lees that have been squeezed dry on the drain rack 25. The push plate 19 pushes the wheat lees out through the discharge port. The wheat lees pushed out from the discharge port enter the feeding bin 15 and are discharged through the opening at the bottom of the feeding bin 15 for conveying.
[0030] The conveying assembly includes a spiral conveying chamber 14, which is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the processing chamber 1 by bolts. The spiral conveying chamber 14 is connected to the feeding chamber 15. A drive motor 13 is installed on one side of the spiral conveying chamber 14. The output end of the drive motor 13 is connected to a transmission shaft 22. One end of the transmission shaft 22 is rotatably connected to the spiral conveying chamber 14. An auger 21 is installed on the transmission shaft 22. A discharge port is provided at the bottom of the spiral conveying chamber 14.
[0031] In use, the wheat lees entering the feeding bin 15 enter the screw conveyor bin 14 through the opening at its bottom. The drive motor 13 can control the rotation of the drive shaft 22 and the auger 21. The rotation of the auger 21 can convey the wheat lees in a screw conveyor, which can complete the conveying of the wheat lees in a convenient and efficient manner.
[0032] For easier addition of ingredients, such as Figure 1 , 4 As shown, a feeding pipe 2 is installed on one side of the processing chamber 1. One end of the feeding pipe 2 is inclined upwards and is connected to the feeding port.
[0033] When in use, wheat lees can be added through the upwardly tilted feeding pipe 2. Its large opening prevents leakage and waste when adding wheat lees.
[0034] To prevent wheat bran from spilling out during the squeezing process, such as Figure 3 , 4 As shown, a connecting frame 24 is fixed to one side of the outer wall of the processing chamber 1 by bolts. A rotary motor 26 is installed on one side of the connecting frame 24. A rotary shaft 11 is connected to the telescopic end of one side of the rotary motor 26. One end of the rotary shaft 11 is rotatably installed through the connecting frame 24. A sealing baffle 23 is installed on the rotary shaft 11. The size and position of the sealing baffle 23 are adapted to the discharge port.
[0035] When in use, the water is squeezed out of the wheat lees on the drain rack 25 by the water squeezing plate 18. The rotating motor 26 can control the rotating shaft 11 and the sealing baffle 23 to rotate. The rotating sealing baffle 23 closes the discharge port, thus preventing wheat lees and wastewater from leaking out through the discharge port when water is accumulated. When the water squeezing is completed and the material is discharged, the sealing baffle 23 can be rotated to open the discharge port.
[0036] To support the device, such as Figure 4 As shown, the bottom outer wall of the processing chamber 1 is fixed with support legs 9 by bolts. Several sets of support legs 9 are provided. Foot pads 10 are provided at the bottom of the support legs 9. The bottom of the foot pads 10 is provided with annular patterns.
[0037] When in use, the device can be supported by the support legs 9 and the foot pads 10. The support device can maintain stability, and the ring pattern on the bottom of the foot pads 10 can increase the grip, thereby avoiding unnecessary sliding displacement.
[0038] To observe the amount of water collected, such as Figure 1 As shown, a transparent observation window 8 is provided on one side of the water collection box 6. The observation window 8 is covered with a protective film, and the protective film has scale lines.
[0039] When in use, the amount of water collected in the water collection box 6 can be viewed through the transparent observation window 8, making it easy to promptly detect and clean up any excessive water accumulation. The protective film and its scale lines provide protection while facilitating observation of the specific water volume.
