[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, terms such as "setting," "installing," "connecting," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.
[0020] A self-cleaning, anti-clogging conveying device for a sugar beet harvester in high-moisture clay soil, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the assembly includes a cover plate 1, a housing 2, a limiting plate 3, a first roller 8, a second roller 9, a first gearbox 10, a first motor 11, brush columns 12, a fixing plate 13, a third motor 17, a first belt 18, a second belt 19, a first conveyor belt 22, and a second conveyor belt 23. The cover plate 1 is mounted on the housing 2 and is connected to the housing 2 by screws. Limiting plates 3 are located at both ends of the feed inlet of the housing 2. A fixing plate 13 is positioned between the limiting plates 3. Multiple brush columns 12 are positioned above the fixing plate 13 and are rotatably connected to the fixing plate 13. The first gearbox 10 is connected inside the housing 2. The brush columns 12 are connected to the feed inlet of the housing 2. The output shaft of the first gearbox 10 is connected to the first gearbox 10, the output shaft of the first motor 11 is connected to the input shaft of the first gearbox 10, the first motor 11 is connected to the housing 2, the first roller 8 and the second roller 9 are rotatably arranged inside the housing 2, the first roller 8 is provided with multiple first conveyor belts 22 spaced apart, the second roller 9 is provided with multiple second conveyor belts 23 spaced apart, the third motor 17 is arranged on the inner wall of the housing 2, the output shaft of the third motor 17 is provided with a pulley, the pulley is connected to the first belt 18 and the second belt 19, the first belt 18 is connected to the first roller 8, and the second belt 19 is connected to the second roller 9.
[0021] When using this device to harvest beets, the collected beets will enter through the device's inlet. Under the constraint of the limiting plate 3, the beets will follow the fixing plate 13 into the cleaning range of the brush column 12. The first motor 11 will start, and the output shaft of the first motor 11 will rotate. The output shaft of the first motor 11 will drive the rotation of the gears inside the first gearbox 10, thereby driving the output shaft of the first gearbox 10 to rotate the brush column 12 to clean the incoming beets. The brushes on the brush column 12 will scrape off some of the soil adhering to the beets. Then, the beets will enter the first conveyor belt 22. The third motor 17 will start, and the output shaft of the third motor 17 will rotate, driving the pulley to rotate. The pulley will drive the second belt 19 to rotate, and the second belt 19 will transmit the rotation to the second roller 9. The second roller 9 will drive the second conveyor belt 23 to rotate, transporting the beets onto the first conveyor belt 22.
[0022] like Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a second motor 14, a second gearbox 15, a connecting block 16, a transmission rod 20, and a triangular vibrating block 21. The second motor 14 is provided on the inner wall of the housing 2. The output shaft of the second motor 14 is connected to the second gearbox 15. The connecting blocks 16 are provided at both ends of the second gearbox 15. The connecting blocks 16 are connected to the housing 2. The output shaft of the second gearbox 15 is connected to the transmission rod 20. The triangular vibrating block 21 is provided on the transmission rod 20. The triangular vibrating block 21 is located in the gap between the second conveyor belts 23.
[0023] When the beets are transported on the second conveyor belt 23, the second motor 14 starts and the output shaft of the second motor 14 rotates. The output shaft of the second motor 14 drives the gears inside the second gearbox 15 to rotate, thereby the output shaft of the second gearbox 15 drives the transmission rod 20 to rotate. The transmission rod 20 drives the triangular vibrating block 21 to rotate. The triangular vibrating block 21 vibrates the beets on the second conveyor belt 23 to a certain extent, and the vibration removes some of the soil adhering to the beets.
[0024] like Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, it also includes an air box 6, air nozzles 25, and fixing rods 24. The air box 6 is positioned diagonally above the second belt 19 and is connected to the box body 2. Air nozzles 25 are evenly distributed on the side of the air box 6 facing the second belt 19, and fixing rods 24 are evenly distributed on the second belt 19. After passing through the second conveyor belt 23, the beets will be conveyed to the first conveyor belt 22. Under the constraint of the fixing rods 24, the beets move with the first conveyor belt 22. The first conveyor belt 22 brings the beets to the cleaning range of the air box 6. The air box 6 is activated, and the air box 6 sprays air through the air nozzles 25 onto the beets on the first conveyor belt 22, using the airflow to clean the soil off the beets.
[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes an inclined plate 5, which is disposed below the second conveyor belt 23. The inclined plate 5 is aligned with the direction of the second conveyor belt 23, and the surface of the inclined plate 5 facing the second conveyor belt 23 is coated with an anti-sticking agent. Soil sprayed off the first conveyor belt 22 by the air nozzle 25 will fall onto the inclined plate 5 and follow its direction. Because the surface of the inclined plate 5 is coated with an anti-sticking agent, the soil does not easily stick to the inclined plate 5.
[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, a screen 4 is also included, which is installed below the first conveyor belt 22 and the second conveyor belt 23. The screen 4 installed at the bottom of the box 2 filters out soil that falls from the first conveyor belt 22, the second conveyor belt and the inclined plate 5. If beets accidentally fall from the first conveyor belt 22 or the second conveyor belt, they will not fall out of the box 2, thus keeping the inside of the box 2 clean and reducing the need for manual picking of beets.
[0027] like Figure 6 As shown, the system also includes a conveyor belt 7, a fourth motor 26, and a fixed column 27. The conveyor belt 7 is located at the discharge port of the housing 2, and the fixed column 27 is located inside the housing 2. The fourth motor 26 is mounted on the fixed column 27, and the output shaft of the fourth motor 26 is connected to the roller of the conveyor belt 7. The beets on the first conveyor belt 22 will eventually fall onto the conveyor belt 7. The fourth motor 26 is activated, and its output shaft drives the roller of the conveyor belt 7 to rotate. The rotation of the roller drives the conveyor belt 7 to move, carrying the beets away from the housing 2, thus completing the beet collection process.
[0028] The above embodiments are provided for those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make modifications or changes to the above embodiments without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, but should be the maximum scope that conforms to the innovative features mentioned in the claims.
