[0023] The specific embodiments are given below. Embodiment one

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, a continuous bucket elevator, including casing 11, drive mechanism, conveying mechanism and a plurality of hoppers 12, a plurality of the hopper 12 is set in the casing 11 through the conveying mechanism, the drive mechanism drives the conveying mechanism to work;The top of the casing 11 is provided with feed inlet 13, the casing 11 is fixedly connected with base 14, the bottom of the base 14 is provided with chute 17, the chute 17 is slidably connected with feeding pipe 15, the feeding pipe 15 bottom penetrates feed inlet 13 and inserts into the inside of the casing 11, the bottom of the base 14 is fixedly connected with electric push rod 16, the output end of the electric push rod 16 is fixedly connected with support 31, the support 31 and feeding pipe 15 are fixedly connected, the feeding pipe 15 is provided with switch assembly;

[0025] In use, the conveying mechanism drives the hopper 12 to move in the casing 11, when the hopper 12 moves to the feed inlet 13, the electric push rod 16 pushes the feeding pipe 15 to move down, the feeding pipe 15 slides in the chute 17, and the bottom end of the feeding pipe 15 inserts into the hopper 12, the material enters from the base 14, then is sent into the hopper 12 through the feeding pipe 15, and the feeding pipe 15 is inserted into the hopper 12 for feeding by the electric push rod 16, so that the material spillage and waste can be reduced.

[0026] Further, as shown in Figure 4 , the base 14 is provided with a through slot 21 in the middle, the through slot 21 is communicated with the chute 17, the partition plate 22 is fixedly connected to the top end of the feeding pipe 15, and the partition plate 22 and the through slot 21 correspond in position;

[0027] In use, the material enters the chute 17 from the through slot 21, so as to feed the material into the feeding pipe 15. When the feeding pipe 15 is pulled out of the hopper 12, the partition plate 22 slides to block the through slot 21, so as to close the flow of the material, thereby reducing the spilling of the material and reducing the waste of the material.

[0028] Further, as shown in Figure 4 , the base 14 is provided with a motor 41, the top of the through slot 21 is provided with a bearing seat 42, the middle of the bearing seat 42 is rotatably connected with an auger 43, the auger 43 is fixedly connected with the output end of the motor 41, and the auger 43 is located in the inside of the chute 17; a plurality of guide rods 32 are fixedly connected to the bracket 31, a plurality of sliding sleeves 33 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the base 14 and the corresponding positions of the guide rods 32, and the guide rods 32 penetrate through the sliding sleeves 33 and are slidably connected therewith;

[0029] In use, the motor 41 drives the auger 43 to rotate, the rotation of the auger 43 can facilitate the pushing and conveying of the material, so as to facilitate the conveying of the material into the hopper 12 and the stable feeding of the material. When the electric push rod 16 pushes the feeding pipe 15 to move, the motor 41 is started synchronously. The bearing seat 42 is arranged, so as to improve the stability of the rotation of the auger 43. In use, the guide rod 32 is arranged and can slide in the sliding sleeve 33, so as to improve the stability of the movement of the feeding pipe 15. The partition plate 22 is arranged, which can prevent the small particles of the material from falling from the gap of the auger 43 after the auger 43 is stopped.

[0030] Further, as shown in Figure 3 , the top of the base 14 is fixedly connected with a bin 5, a control assembly is installed in the inside of the casing 11, and the control assembly can control the electric push rod 16 to drive the feeding pipe 15 to insert into the hopper 12; the control assembly comprises a rod body 61 and a press switch 62, the rod body 61 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the hopper 12, and the press switch 62 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the casing 11 and corresponds to the position of the rod body 61.

[0031] During use, the hopper 12 moves inside the housing 11, and then the hopper 12 drives the rod 61 to move. When the rod 61 is located at the feed inlet 13, it will align with the push switch 62. Then the rod 61 presses the push switch 62, and the push switch 62 outputs an electrical signal to the electric push rod 16 controller. At this time, the electric push rod 16 drives the feeding pipe 15 to be inserted into the hopper 12 for feeding. The control component can also be an electric control box, and the motor driving the auger and the electric push rod are controlled by the electric control box. Example 2

[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the control component can also be a photoelectric sensor 7 installed inside the housing 11. The photoelectric sensor 7 is located on both sides of the hopper 12. In use, the light generator and light receiver in the photoelectric sensor 7 are installed on both sides of the hopper 12. When the hopper 12 passes through the middle, the control electric push rod 16 drives the feeding pipe 15 to move down and insert into the hopper 12, thereby facilitating the control of the feeding pipe 15 to be inserted into the hopper 12.

[0033] Working principle: During use, the conveying mechanism drives the hopper 12 to move inside the housing 11. When the hopper 12 moves to the feed inlet 13, the electric push rod 16 pushes the feeding pipe 15 downward. The feeding pipe 15 slides in the chute 17, and the bottom end of the feeding pipe 15 is inserted into the hopper 12. Material enters from the base 14 and is then fed into the hopper 12 through the feeding pipe 15. The electric push rod 16 controls the insertion of the feeding pipe 15 into the hopper 12 for feeding, thereby reducing material spillage and waste. Material enters from the through groove 21 into the chute 17, thus feeding the material into the feeding pipe 15. When the feeding pipe 15 moves upward and is pulled out of the hopper 12, its partition 22 slides to block the side of the through groove 21, thereby stopping the flow of material and reducing material spillage and waste. In use, the auger 43 is driven to rotate by the motor 41. The rotation of the auger 43 facilitates the pushing and conveying of materials, thus making it easy to deliver materials into the hopper 12 and ensuring stable material delivery. The bearing seat 42 improves the stability of the auger 43's rotation. The guide rod 32 slides within the sliding sleeve 33, improving the stability of the feeding pipe 15's movement. In use, the hopper 12 moves within the housing 11, which in turn moves the rod 61. When the rod 61 is at the inlet 13, its push rod aligns with the press switch 62. The rod 61 then presses the press switch 62, which outputs an electrical signal to the electric push rod 16 controller. At this time, the electric push rod 16 drives the feeding pipe 15 to insert into the hopper 12 for material delivery.
