[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of plate feeders, specifically a plate feeder with good stability and low energy consumption. Background Technology
[0002] Plate feeders are commonly used feeding equipment in mineral processing plants, generally divided into heavy-duty, medium-duty, and light-duty types. They have broad application prospects and development potential in mining, metallurgy, chemical and other fields. During material processing, plate feeders are used to continuously transport and move materials to suitable locations.
[0003] In operation, plate feeders use a drive unit to rotate components such as support rollers, thereby driving the chain plate for transport. However, existing plate feeders suffer from difficulties in ensuring material stability during transport when the feeder is tilted, and the drive unit's operation results in high energy consumption. Therefore, this paper proposes a plate feeder with good stability and low energy consumption to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a stable and low-energy plate feeder, comprising a support frame, wherein a motor is provided inside the support frame, and one end of the motor output shaft is connected to a main shaft via a coupling; a support roller is provided on one side of the main shaft between the support frame, and a chain plate is provided on the outer wall of the support roller; engaging grooves are respectively opened on both sides of the surface of the chain plate, and engaging blocks are inserted inside the engaging grooves; the engaging blocks are respectively located below a limiting plate; sliders are respectively provided on both sides of the limiting plate, and sliding grooves are respectively opened on the opposite sides of the support frame, with the sliders inserted into the sliding grooves;
[0006] The support frame has protective covers placed on its inner side, and the protective covers have fixing blocks on their outer walls at both ends. Bolts are inserted through the fixing blocks, and the other end of the bolts is screwed onto the support frame.
[0007] The motor has a fixed frame on the outer wall of the support frame, and the fixed frame has a solar panel on the upper surface. The solar panel has a wire at the lower end, and the other end of the wire is connected to the motor.
[0008] Preferably, the chain plate, under the action of the motor, forms a conveying structure with the main shaft, the support roller, and the support frame.
[0009] Preferably, the limiting plate is inserted into the locking groove by the locking block to form a locking and limiting structure with the chain plate, and the limiting plate is inserted into the sliding groove by the locking block and the slider to form a synchronous sliding structure with the chain plate.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a plate feeder with good stability and low energy consumption, including a support frame 1, a motor 2 is provided inside the support frame 1, and one end of the output shaft of the motor 2 is connected to the main shaft through a coupling. A belt roller is provided on one side of the main shaft between the support frame 1, and a chain plate 3 is provided on the outer wall of the belt roller. The surface of the chain plate 3 is provided with engagement grooves 7 on both sides, and engagement blocks 6 are inserted inside the engagement grooves 7. The engagement blocks 6 are respectively provided below the limiting plate 4. The limiting plate 4 is provided with sliders 5 on both sides, and the support frame 1 is provided with sliding grooves on opposite sides, and the sliders 5 are inserted into the sliding grooves.
[0020] Furthermore, under the action of the motor 2, the chain plate 3 forms a conveying structure through the main shaft, the support roller and the support frame 1, so that the motor 2 can drive the chain plate 3 to transport materials. It should be noted that the support frame 1 has openings at both ends to ensure that the slider 5 can be inserted into the groove.
[0021] Furthermore, the limiting plate 4, through the engaging block 6, is inserted into the engaging groove 7 to form an engaging and limiting structure with the chain plate 3. The limiting plate 4, through the engaging block 6 and the slider 5, is inserted into the sliding groove to form a synchronous sliding structure with the chain plate 3. Thus, the corresponding limiting plate 4 can be selected for engaging and installation according to the material conditions, so as to block the inclined feeding material through the limiting plate 4, thereby increasing the stability of the material transportation process.
[0022] The support frame 1 has protective covers 8 placed on its inner side, and the protective covers 8 have fixing blocks on their outer walls at both ends. Bolts 9 are inserted through the fixing blocks, and the other end of the bolts 9 is screwed onto the support frame 1.
[0023] Furthermore, the protective cover 8 forms a spiral locking structure with the support frame 1 through the fixing block and bolts 9, thereby preventing external impurities from affecting the rotation of the main shaft and other components inside the plate feeder, and thus preventing the main shaft assembly from being worn and reducing its rotation efficiency.
[0024] A fixing frame 10 is provided on the outer side of the motor 2 on the outer wall of the support frame 1, and a solar panel 11 is provided on the upper end of the fixing frame 10. A wire 12 is provided on the lower end of the solar panel 11, and the other end of the wire 12 is connected to the motor 2. It should be noted that the wire 12 connects the positive and negative terminals of the solar panel 11 to the corresponding positive and negative terminals of the controller or inverter, and connects its output terminal to the motor 2 to provide the motor with the required AC or DC power. The device uses a low-energy motor and controls the motor speed through an intelligent control system to ensure the energy efficiency of the device.
[0025] Furthermore, the solar panel 11 has an inclined structure, and the solar panel 11 is electrically connected to the motor 2 through the wire 12, thereby supplying power to the motor 2 through the inclined solar panel 11, thereby reducing the energy consumed during the operation of the plate feeder.
[0026] Working Principle: When using a stable and low-energy plate feeder, firstly, select the appropriate size limit plate 4 according to the required material volume. Then, place the slider 5 at the opening at one end of the support frame 1 and move the limit plate 4 upward within the opening. Simultaneously, start the motor 2. The output shaft of the motor 2 drives the main shaft to rotate through the coupling, and the rotating support roller drives the chain plate 3 for transportation. This moves the engaging groove 7 on the chain plate 3 to the engaging block 6 below the limit plate 4. At the same time, lower the limit plate 4, allowing the engaging block 6 to insert into the engaging groove 7. This ensures that the limit plate 4 can slide synchronously with the chain plate 3 via the engaging block 6, slider 5, and chain plate 3. This allows the chain plate 3 to feed the material while the engaging limit plate 4 supports the material. The support structure increases the stability of the material when the plate feeder is tilted during feeding. During the operation of the plate feeder, the protective cover 8 can be installed on both sides of the chain plate 3 using multiple sets of bolts 9. This protects the main shaft and the ends of the support rollers, preventing external impurities from affecting the internal rotating components of the plate feeder and thus avoiding wear on the rotating components, which would increase the energy consumption of the device. At the same time, the bolts 9 facilitate the periodic disassembly of the protective cover 8 for lubrication of the main shaft and the ends of the support rollers, thereby reducing the energy consumption during the operation of the device. Furthermore, during the operation of the plate feeder, the motor 2 can be powered by the tilted solar panel 11 and the wire 12, further reducing the energy consumption required by the device. This is the operation process of the plate feeder with good stability and low energy consumption.
[0027] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
