Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of belt cleaning equipment, specifically a belt conveyor cleaning and sweeping mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Belt conveyors, also known as rubber belt conveyors, are widely used in various industries such as home appliances, electronics, electrical appliances, machinery, tobacco, and injection molding. When conveying materials, materials easily adhere to the surface of the conveyor, so we need to use cleaning devices to clean them.

[0003] In the existing technology, conventional belt conveyor cleaning and sweeping mechanisms mostly use simple scrapers, and they only clean the outer surface of the conveyor belt, resulting in poor cleaning effect. They cannot clean the inner side of the conveyor belt, which is not practical. Furthermore, simple spraying is not enough to effectively remove contaminants adhering to the conveyor belt, which also leads to poor cleaning effect. After spraying cleaning, the conveyor belt is wet, which reduces its service life. Utility Model Content

[0022] In this embodiment, the locking block 201 is snapped onto the front frame of the conveyor body 1, and a fastening bolt is installed in the threaded hole 202, so that the fastening bolt locks and fixes the locking block 201 to the front wall of the conveyor body 1, thereby achieving the effect of installing and fixing the first rectangular box 3. Similarly, the second fixing mechanism 6 installs the second rectangular box 7 onto the conveyor body 1, and the third fixing mechanism 11 installs the third rectangular box 12 onto the conveyor body 1.

[0023] Specifically, the first adjustment mechanism 4 includes a ball screw 401, a bearing assembly 402, a handle 403, a ball nut 404, and a rectangular opening 405. The ball screw 401 is installed at the middle position of the side wall and inner wall of the rectangular box through the bearing assembly 402. The handle 403 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the ball screw 401. The ball nut 404 is provided on the ball screw 401, and a rectangular opening 405 is opened on the rear side wall of the first rectangular box 3 corresponding to the ball nut 404. The second adjustment mechanism 8 and the third adjustment mechanism 13 have the same structure as the first adjustment mechanism 4.

[0024] In this embodiment, the handle 403 drives the ball screw 401 to rotate in the upper and lower bearing assembly 402, causing the ball screw 401 to drive the ball nut 404 to move up and down. The ball nut 404 drives the scraping mechanism 5 to move up and down along the inner wall of the rectangular opening 405. The first upper and lower adjustment mechanism 4 adjusts the position of the upper and lower scraping mechanism 5. Similarly, the second upper and lower adjustment mechanism 8 can adjust the distance between the upper and lower cleaning mechanism 9 and the spraying mechanism 10 and the belt of the conveyor body 1. The third upper and lower adjustment mechanism 13 can adjust the distance between the air blowing mechanism 14 and the belt of the conveyor body 1.

[0025] Specifically, the scraping mechanism 5 includes a mounting box 501 and a rubber scraper 502. The mounting box 501 is fixedly mounted on the rear side of the ball nut 404, and the rubber scraper 502 is embedded on the side of the mounting box 501 facing the lower belt of the conveyor body 1.

[0026] In this embodiment, the mounting box 501 has a V-shaped structure and is used to install the rubber scraper 502, which cleans the belt of the conveyor body 1.

[0027] Specifically, the cleaning mechanism 9 includes a rectangular frame 901, a cleaning roller assembly 902, and a drive motor 903. The rectangular frame 901 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the second adjustment mechanism 8. The upper and lower sides of the rectangular frame 901 are open structures. The cleaning roller assembly 902 is arranged between the front and rear inner walls of the rectangular frame 901, and the cleaning roller assembly 902 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 903. The drive motor 903 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the rectangular frame 901.

[0028] In this embodiment, the output shaft of the drive motor 903 drives the cleaning roller assembly 902 to rotate between the front and rear inner walls of the rectangular frame 901, so that the cleaning roller assembly 902 cleans the belt surface of the conveyor body 1. The cleaning roller assembly 902 is a brush roller.

[0029] Specifically, the spraying mechanism 10 includes a liquid storage tank 101, a water filter 102, a water pump assembly 103, a liquid distribution pipe 104, a first flexible hose 105, and spray heads 106. The liquid storage tank 101 is located below the cleaning mechanism 9. The upper surface of the liquid storage tank 101 is an open structure. The front side of the liquid storage tank 101 is provided with a water filter 102 and then a water pump assembly 103. The liquid storage tank 101, the water filter 102, the water pump assembly 103, and the liquid distribution pipe 104 are connected in series through the first flexible hose 105. The liquid distribution pipe 104 is respectively installed on the upper and lower rectangular frames 901, and spray heads 106 are evenly arranged on the liquid distribution pipe 104.

[0030] In this embodiment, the water pump assembly 103 draws water from the water filter 102 through the first hose 105, so that the water in the storage tank 101 flows into the upper and lower distribution pipes 104 after being filtered by the water filter 102, and is then sprayed out through the upper and lower spray nozzles 106. The upper and lower spray nozzles 106 spray and wash the inner and outer sides of the belt of the conveyor body 1 and the upper and lower cleaning roller assemblies 902.

[0031] Specifically, the air blowing mechanism 14 includes an air filter 141, a fan assembly 142, an air distribution pipe 143, a second hose 144, and a jet nozzle 145. The air filter 141 and the fan assembly 142 are installed on the front side of the liquid storage tank 101. The air filter 141, the fan assembly 142, and the air distribution pipe 143 are connected through the second hose 144. The air distribution pipe 143 is installed on the upper and lower third adjustment mechanism 13. Jet nozzles 145 are evenly arranged on the lower surface of the air distribution pipe 143.

[0032] In this embodiment, the fan assembly 142 draws in outside air through the air filter 141. The air filtered by the air filter 141 enters the upper and lower air distribution pipes 143 and is then sprayed out through the jet nozzles 145 on the upper and lower air distribution pipes 143 to remove water stains from the belt of the conveyor body 1.

[0033] In use, the locking block 201 in the first fixing mechanism 2 is snapped onto the front frame of the conveyor body 1, and a fastening bolt is installed in the threaded hole 202. The fastening bolt locks the locking block 201 to the front wall of the conveyor body 1, thus achieving the effect of installing and fixing the first rectangular box 3. Similarly, the second rectangular box 7 is installed on the conveyor body 1 through the second fixing mechanism 6, and the third rectangular box 12 is installed on the conveyor body 1 through the third fixing mechanism 11. The ball screw 401 is rotated in the upper and lower bearing assemblies 402 by the handle 403 in the upper and lower first adjusting mechanism 4. The ball screw 401 drives the ball nut 404 to move up and down. The ball nut 404 moves along the inner wall of the rectangular opening 405, causing the mounting box 501 in the scraping mechanism 5 to move towards the lower belt of the conveyor body 1, so that the rubber scrapers 502 in the upper and lower scraping mechanisms 5 respectively come into contact with the inner and outer sides of the belt of the conveyor body 1. Similarly, the upper and lower second adjustment mechanism 8 can adjust the distance between the upper and lower cleaning mechanisms 9 and the spraying mechanism 10 and the belt of the conveyor body 1, so that the cleaning roller assembly 902 in the upper and lower cleaning mechanisms 9 comes into contact with the lower belt of the conveyor body 1. The air blowing mechanism can be adjusted through the third adjustment mechanism 13. The distance between the belt of the conveyor body 1 and the belt of the upper and lower rubber scrapers 502 is adjusted. The upper and lower rubber scrapers 502 scrape off the impurities on the belt of the conveyor body 1. The output shaft of the drive motor 903 in the cleaning mechanism 9 drives the cleaning roller assembly 902 to rotate between the front and rear inner walls of the rectangular frame 901, so that the cleaning roller assembly 902 cleans the surface of the belt of the conveyor body 1. Then, the water pump assembly 103 in the spraying mechanism 10 draws water from the water filter 102 through the first hose 105, so that the water in the storage tank 101 flows into the upper and lower liquid distribution pipes 104 after being filtered by the water filter 102, and is then sprayed out through the upper and lower water spray heads 106. The upper and lower water spray heads 106 spray and wash the inner and outer sides of the belt of the conveyor body 1 and the upper and lower cleaning roller assemblies 902. Then, the blower assembly 142 in the air blowing mechanism 14 draws in external air through the air filter 141. The air filtered by the air filter 141 enters the upper and lower air distribution pipes 143 and is then sprayed out through the air jets 145 on the upper and lower air distribution pipes 143 to remove water stains on the belt of the conveyor body 1. In this way, the inner and outer sides of the belt of the conveyor body 1 can be scraped, cleaned, sprayed and blown, so as to achieve better cleaning effect, effectively avoid moisture damage to the belt and extend the service life of the belt.

[0034] In summary, this belt conveyor cleaning and sweeping mechanism scrapes, cleans, sprays, and blows air onto both the inner and outer sides of the conveyor body 1 belt, achieving the effect of limiting the belt's movement and improving the cleaning effect. After cleaning, it can remove water from the belt, effectively preventing moisture damage and extending the belt's service life.
