Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a conveyor belt cleaning mechanism and conveying device, belonging to the field of conveyor belt cleaning technology. Background Technology
[0002] During prolonged use, conveyor belts accumulate dust, debris, and other contaminants on their surface. To prevent these contaminants from interfering with material transport, the conveyor belts need to be cleaned periodically. Typically, cleaning is done manually by workers using cloths or brushes to remove these contaminants. However, this manual cleaning not only disrupts the normal operation of the conveyor belt but is also inefficient. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a conveyor belt cleaning mechanism and conveying device that can improve the cleaning efficiency of the conveyor belt surface.
[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution.
[0005] A conveyor belt cleaning mechanism includes a first mounting frame and a rotating component rotatably mounted on the first mounting frame. The outer peripheral surface of the rotating component is provided with at least one cleaning component for contacting the surface of the conveyor belt. When the conveyor belt moves, the rotating component can be driven to rotate relative to the conveyor belt, and the rotation direction of the rotating component is opposite to the movement direction of the conveyor belt.
[0006] As a further improvement of this utility model, the cleaning assembly includes a plurality of cleaning components, which are arranged sequentially along the axial direction of the rotating component. The cleaning components are used to contact the surface of the conveyor belt to remove contaminants from the surface of the conveyor belt.
[0007] As a further improvement of this invention, one of the cleaning components comprises a plurality of closely arranged filaments.
[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, the cleaning components are provided in multiple ways, and the multiple cleaning components are arranged sequentially along the circumference of the rotating component.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the first mounting bracket includes two spaced-apart first mounting plates, and the two ends of the rotating component are respectively rotatably mounted on the two first mounting plates.
[0010] A conveying device, characterized in that it includes a conveyor belt cleaning mechanism as described above, a second mounting frame, a plurality of conveyor rollers rotatably mounted on the second mounting frame, a conveyor belt driven to move by the conveyor rollers, and a drive assembly that drives at least one of the conveyor rollers to rotate.
[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, at least one power transmission component is provided between one of the conveying rollers and the rotating component, so that the rotating component rotates synchronously when the conveying roller rotates.
[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, the power transmission assembly includes two sprockets and a chain meshing on the two sprockets, with the two sprockets respectively disposed on the conveying roller and the rotating component.
[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model, the rotating component is located below the conveyor belt.
[0014] As a further improvement of this utility model, the first mounting bracket is disposed on the second mounting bracket.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] 1. The rotation of the rotating component drives the cleaning assembly mounted on it to contact the surface of the conveyor belt. The rotating cleaning assembly can quickly remove contaminants from the conveyor belt surface, resulting in high cleaning efficiency. Simultaneously, the rotation direction of the rotating component is opposite to the movement direction of the conveyor belt. When the cleaning assembly contacts the conveyor belt, a large frictional force is generated between them, which helps to improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning assembly on the conveyor belt surface.
[0017] 2. The rotating parts are driven by the rotation of the conveyor rollers in the conveying device, which eliminates the need for an additional power source to drive the rotating parts. This simplifies the structure of the cleaning mechanism and saves space. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] The directional terms such as up, down, left, right, front, back, front, back, top, and bottom mentioned or possibly used in this specification are defined relative to the construction shown in the accompanying drawings. The terms "inner" and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively. These are relative concepts and may therefore vary depending on their location and usage. Therefore, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive.
[0025] Example 1:
[0026] A conveyor belt cleaning mechanism is used to clean the surface of a conveyor belt 6. It includes a first mounting frame 1 and a rotating component 2 rotatably mounted on the first mounting frame 1. At least one cleaning component 3 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating component 2 for contacting the surface of the conveyor belt 6. When the conveyor belt 6 moves, the rotating component 2 can be driven to rotate relative to the conveyor belt 6 and the rotation direction of the rotating component 2 is opposite to the movement direction of the conveyor belt 6.
[0027] In this embodiment, the rotation of the rotating component 2 causes the cleaning component 3 mounted on the rotating component 2 to come into contact with the surface of the conveyor belt 6. The rotating cleaning component 3 can quickly remove contaminants from the surface of the conveyor belt 6, resulting in high cleaning efficiency. Simultaneously, the rotation direction of the rotating component 2 is opposite to the movement direction of the conveyor belt 6. When the cleaning component 31 contacts the conveyor belt 6, a large frictional force is generated between them, which helps to improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning component 3 on the surface of the conveyor belt 6. Furthermore, cleaning the conveyor belt 6 does not require stopping the conveyor belt 6, thus not interfering with its normal operation.
[0028] In this embodiment, the cleaning component 3 includes multiple cleaning parts 31 arranged sequentially along the axial direction of the rotating component 2. The cleaning parts 31 are used to contact the surface of the conveyor belt 6 to remove contaminants from the surface of the conveyor belt 6, where contaminants refer to dust and dirt located on the surface of the conveyor belt 6. Specifically, the cleaning part 31 includes multiple closely arranged filaments, one end of which is connected to the rotating component 2, and the other end contacts the surface of the conveyor belt 6. When the filaments contact the surface of the conveyor belt 6, they carry away the contaminants, thereby cleaning the surface of the conveyor belt 6. The filaments can be bristles made of abrasion-resistant material, and the shape of the cleaning part 31 can be circular or elliptical.
[0029] In this embodiment, multiple cleaning components 3 are arranged sequentially along the circumference of the rotating component 2. The arrangement of cleaning components 31 along the circumference of the rotating component 2 ensures that during rotation, the cleaning components 31 continuously and evenly contact the surface of the conveyor belt 6, thus improving the cleaning speed and efficiency of the conveyor belt 6. Simultaneously, this structure reduces blind spots during the cleaning process because the cleaning components 31 continuously change their contact points with the surface of the conveyor belt 6 as they rotate, thereby achieving more comprehensive coverage of the entire conveyor belt 6.
[0030] In this embodiment, the first mounting frame 1 includes two spaced-apart first mounting plates 11. The two ends of the rotating component 2 are rotatably mounted on the two first mounting plates 11 respectively to facilitate the rotation of the rotating component 2 relative to the conveyor belt 6. In addition, the rotating component 2 can be mounted on the first mounting plates 11 by bearings to ensure the normal rotation of the rotating component 2 relative to the mounting base.
[0031] Example 2:
[0032] A conveying device includes a conveyor belt cleaning mechanism as described in Embodiment 1, a second mounting frame 4, a plurality of conveyor rollers 5 rotatably mounted on the second mounting frame 4, a conveyor belt 6 driven to move by the conveyor rollers 5, and a drive assembly 7 that drives at least one conveyor roller 5 to rotate. The conveyor belt 6 simultaneously surrounds the outer surface of the plurality of conveyor rollers 5. When one of the conveyor rollers 5 rotates under the drive of the drive assembly 7, it drives the conveyor belt 6 to move through the action of tension and can drive the other conveyor rollers 5 to rotate, thereby realizing the movement of the conveyor belt 6.
[0033] In this embodiment, at least one power transmission component 8 is provided between one of the conveying rollers 5 and the rotating component 2, so that when the conveying roller 5 rotates, it drives the rotating component 2 to rotate synchronously with the conveying roller 5. In this structure, the rotating component 2 is driven to rotate synchronously with the conveying roller 5 by the conveying roller 5 in the conveying device. Therefore, there is no need to configure an additional power source to drive the rotating component 2 to rotate, which simplifies the structural composition of the cleaning device and saves space. The driving mechanism in this embodiment can be a stepper motor, which is connected to one of the conveying rollers 5 to drive the conveying roller 5 to rotate.
[0034] In this embodiment, the power transmission assembly 8 includes two sprockets 81 and a chain 82 meshing on the two sprockets 81. The two sprockets 81 are respectively mounted on the conveyor roller 5 and the rotating component 2. When the conveyor roller 5 rotates, it drives the chain 82 mounted on the conveyor roller 5 to rotate, and then the chain 82 drives the rotating component 2 to rotate.
[0035] In this embodiment, the rotating component 2 is located below the conveyor belt 6. Therefore, when materials are transported on the conveyor belt 6, the cleaning mechanism will not interfere with the conveying of materials on the conveyor belt 6.
[0036] In this embodiment, the first mounting frame 1 is mounted on the second mounting frame 4. The second mounting frame 4 includes two spaced second mounting plates 41. The two ends of the conveying roller 5 are rotatably mounted on the two second mounting plates 41 to facilitate the rotation of the conveying roller 5. The two first mounting plates 11 of the first mounting frame 1 are respectively mounted on the two second mounting plates 41 by bolts, so that the first mounting frame 1 is fixed on the second mounting frame 4, ensuring the structural stability of the conveying device.
[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
