Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of environmental protection equipment technology, and in particular relates to a bucket elevator anti-backflow bucket. Background Technology

[0002] Among related technologies, a bucket elevator anti-backflow mechanism with announcement number CN220097484U is disclosed. It includes an elevator, a feed pipe fixedly installed on one side of the elevator, and a discharge pipe fixedly installed on the other side of the elevator. A tilting plate is rotatably installed at the tail end of the discharge pipe, and a toggle assembly is installed on one side of the tilting plate. The toggle assembly is used to actuate the tilting plate. The tilting plate is inclined, and it receives material falling from the hopper that is not directly poured into the discharge pipe and guides it into the discharge pipe for output. This effectively reduces backflow, prevents material from falling back into the elevator due to lack of output, avoids material accumulation, and prevents damage to the elevator, thus improving the unloading effect. When the push rod in the toggle assembly rotates synchronously with the conveyor belt, it pushes the slider. The slider cooperates with the toggle plate on one side of the tilting plate to make the tilting plate vibrate up and down, allowing the material on the tilting plate to be guided into the discharge pipe more quickly, avoiding stagnation and further improving the unloading effect.

[0003] However, during use, materials can easily enter the spring, making it difficult to compress the spring and affecting the operation of the device. This necessitates stopping the device for cleaning, which reduces the device's operating efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a bucket elevator anti-backflow bucket. By setting an anti-backflow mechanism, the problem is solved that during the use of the device, material easily enters the spring, making the spring difficult to compress, affecting the operation of the device, requiring the device to be stopped for cleaning, and reducing the operating efficiency of the device.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model is a bucket elevator anti-backflow bucket, including a rectangular box, a discharge port on the right side of the rectangular box, and a material conveying mechanism and an anti-backflow mechanism on the rectangular box;

[0007] The material conveying mechanism includes a motor fixedly connected to the outer wall of a rectangular box. The output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft through a coupling. The rear side of the rotating shaft extends into the rectangular box. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the rectangular box. The anti-backflow mechanism includes a rectangular plate hinged inside the rectangular box. A limit groove is provided on the front inner wall of the rectangular box. A sliding plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limit groove.

[0008] Furthermore, a feed hopper is connected to the left side of the rectangular box, and a second rotating shaft is rotatably connected inside the rectangular box. Two sprockets are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both the first and second rotating shafts.

[0009] Furthermore, the rectangular box is equipped with two chains, which mesh with several sprockets. Several fixed rods are fixedly connected between the two chains, and material hoppers are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the fixed rods.

[0010] Furthermore, a fixing block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the skateboard, and the side of the fixing block away from the skateboard is rotatably connected to the rectangular plate. The rectangular block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the skateboard and is slidably connected to the limiting groove.

[0011] Furthermore, a sliding rod is fixedly connected inside the limiting slide groove. The sliding rod passes through the rectangular block and is slidably connected to the rectangular block. Two springs are sleeved on the outer wall of the sliding rod. The side of the two springs that are close to each other is fixedly connected to the rectangular block, and the side of the springs that are far apart from each other is fixedly connected to the top inner wall and the bottom inner wall of the limiting slide groove, respectively.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. By setting up a material conveying mechanism, when material is fed into the rectangular box through the feeding hopper, the motor is started. The motor drives the first rotating shaft to rotate clockwise. Under the action of two chains, the first rotating shaft drives the second rotating shaft through several sprockets. At this time, the two chains rotate on their corresponding sprockets. The two chains drive several conveying hoppers to rotate through several fixed rods, thereby discharging the material through the discharge port on the right side of the rectangular box. During material conveying, the conveying hopper throws the material onto the rectangular plate. The material then flows out through the inclined surface of the rectangular plate into the next working point, ensuring the continuous and orderly operation of the conveying hopper, making the material conveying process smooth and efficient, improving production efficiency, avoiding material spillage and flying during the conveying process, and reducing material loss.

[0014] 2. By setting up an anti-backflow mechanism, when material is fed into the rectangular box through the feed hopper, the force of the moving hopper presses the rectangular plate downwards. At this time, the rectangular plate rotates at the hinge point. The rectangular plate, through the fixed block, drives the sliding plate to move downwards within the limiting groove. The sliding plate prevents material from entering the limiting groove, causing the spring to jam and affecting the rotation of the rectangular plate. As the sliding plate moves, it drives the rectangular block to slide within the limiting groove and on the sliding rod. At this time, the rectangular block will compress the spring located below, causing deformation and generating elastic force, while the spring located above... The spring is stretched to deform and generate tension, which causes the hopper to move past the rectangular plate's restriction. When the hopper moves past the rectangular plate, the rectangular plate is reset by the combined force of the two springs. This process is repeated, effectively promoting the material to leave the hopper, reducing material residue in the hopper, preventing material backflow, improving conveying efficiency, blocking material from entering the limit chute, preventing the spring from being stuck by material, ensuring the smooth rotation of the rectangular plate, preventing equipment failure caused by mechanical component jamming, and improving the stability and reliability of equipment operation.

[0025] 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.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-6 As shown, this utility model is a bucket elevator anti-backflow bucket, including a rectangular box 1. A conveying mechanism 2 and an anti-backflow mechanism 3 are provided on the rectangular box 1. The conveying mechanism 2 includes a motor 211 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rectangular box 1. The output shaft of the motor 211 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 212 via a coupling. The rear side of the rotating shaft 212 extends into the rectangular box 1, and the rotating shaft 212 is rotatably connected to the rectangular box 1. A feed hopper 111 is connected to the left side of the rectangular box 1. A rotating shaft 213 is rotatably connected inside the rectangular box 1. The outer side of the rotating shaft 212... Two sprockets 214 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the wall and the rotating shaft 213. Two chains 215 are installed inside the rectangular box 1. The two chains 215 mesh with several sprockets 214. Several fixed rods 216 are fixedly connected between the two chains 215. The outer walls of the several fixed rods 216 are fixedly connected to the conveying hoppers 217. By setting up the conveying mechanism 2, the continuous and orderly operation of the conveying hoppers 217 is ensured, making the material conveying process smooth and efficient, improving production efficiency, avoiding spillage and flying of materials during the conveying process, and reducing material loss.

[0027] The anti-return mechanism 3 includes a rectangular plate 311 hinged inside a rectangular box 1. A limiting groove 312 is formed on the inner front wall of the rectangular box 1. A sliding plate 313 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 312. A fixing block 314 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding plate 313. The side of the fixing block 314 away from the sliding plate 313 is rotatably connected to the rectangular plate 311. A rectangular block 315 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding plate 313. The rectangular block 315 is slidably connected to the limiting groove 312. A sliding rod 316 is fixedly connected inside the limiting groove 312. The sliding rod 316 passes through the rectangular block 315 and is slidably connected to the rectangular block 315. Two springs 317 are fitted on the outer wall of the 6. The side of the two springs 317 that are close to each other is fixedly connected to the rectangular block 315, and the side of the springs 317 that are far from each other is fixedly connected to the top inner wall and the bottom inner wall of the limiting slide 312 respectively. By setting the anti-backflow mechanism 3, the material is effectively detached from the conveying hopper 217, reducing the material residue in the hopper, thereby preventing backflow, improving conveying efficiency, blocking the material from entering the limiting slide 312, preventing the springs 317 from being stuck by the material, ensuring the smooth rotation of the rectangular plate 311, preventing equipment failure caused by mechanical parts jamming, and improving the stability and reliability of equipment operation.

[0028] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: During use, material is added to the rectangular box 1 through the feeding hopper 111. At this time, the motor 211 is started, and the motor 211 drives the rotating shaft 212 to rotate clockwise. Under the action of two chains 215, the rotating shaft 212 drives the rotating shaft 213 to rotate through several sprockets 214. At this time, the two chains 215 rotate on their corresponding two sprockets 214. At this time, the two chains 215 drive several conveying hoppers 217 to rotate through several fixed rods 216, thereby discharging the material through the discharge port on the right side of the rectangular box 1. During material conveying, the conveying hoppers 217 throw the material onto the rectangular plate 311. At this time, the material will flow out through the inclined surface of the rectangular plate 311 and enter the next working point. Under the action of the moving force of the conveying hoppers 217, the rectangular plate 311 is pressed downward. The rectangular plate 311 rotates at the hinge point. At this time, the rectangular plate 311 drives the sliding plate 313 to move downward in the limiting slide groove 312 through the fixing block 314. Under the action of the sliding plate 313, the material is prevented from entering the limiting slide groove 312, causing the spring 317 to be stuck, thus affecting the rotation of the rectangular plate 311. When the sliding plate 313 moves, it drives the rectangular block 315 to slide in the limiting slide groove 312 and on the sliding rod 316. At this time, the rectangular block 315 will squeeze the lower spring 317 to generate deformation and elastic force, while the upper spring 317 will be stretched to generate deformation and tension, thereby causing the conveying hopper 217 to move past the restriction of the rectangular plate 311. When the conveying hopper 217 moves past the rectangular plate 311, the rectangular plate 311 is reset under the action of the elastic force and tension of the two springs 317. This process is repeated.
