Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture technology, specifically to a roller self-cleaning conveyor and a manure removal device. Background Technology

[0002] In sheep farms, conveyors are installed under the sheep pen platforms to facilitate manure removal. These conveyors periodically collect and remove manure, wool, or other debris that falls from the pen platforms. Belt conveyors are commonly used. However, sheep manure can easily become entangled in the conveyor rollers, causing wool to become tangled and other debris to stick, leading to belt misalignment, wrinkles, and other problems. Therefore, regular cleaning and maintenance of the conveyors are necessary.

[0003] Some existing conveying equipment can clean the conveyor rollers, but most of them can only be operated when the machine is stopped. Otherwise, the cleaned debris cannot be discharged in time, causing the debris to re-adhere to the rollers during the conveyor belt rotation. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a roller self-cleaning conveying device, thereby providing a waste heat recovery and utilization system for municipal solid waste incineration power plants.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a self-cleaning roller conveyor device, including a driving roller, a driven roller, and a conveyor belt mounted on the driving roller and the driven roller. Cleaning rollers are arranged parallel to each other at the driving roller and the driven roller. Cleaning brushes are installed on the cleaning rollers, with the bristles of the cleaning brushes spirally distributed on the outside of the cleaning rollers. The cleaning rollers rotate relative to the corresponding driving roller or driven roller. The cleaning brushes clean the outer end face of the driving roller or driven roller and convey the brushed-off debris towards the end of the cleaning roller. By installing cleaning rollers at both the driving roller and the driven roller, the rotation of the cleaning rollers utilizes the spirally distributed bristles on the roller body to clean the driving roller and the driven roller. Furthermore, the spirally distributed bristles also effectively convey debris towards the end, effectively preventing debris from accumulating and re-adhering to the rollers.

[0006] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the cleaning roller is provided with two cleaning brushes, which are symmetrically distributed and convey the brushed-off debris to both ends of the cleaning roller. The symmetrical distribution of the two cleaning brushes conveys the brushed-off debris from the middle to both sides, reducing the distance of debris conveying and improving the efficiency of debris conveying and removal.

[0007] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, each cleaning brush includes at least two layers of bristles. The multi-layer bristle design can improve the cleaning effect on the roller.

[0008] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the cleaning roller at the active roller is driven to cooperate with the active roller, and the cleaning roller at the driven roller is driven to cooperate with the driven roller.

[0009] Based on the same concept, this utility model also provides a manure removal device, comprising a secondary conveying mechanism and at least one primary conveying mechanism. Both the primary and secondary conveying mechanisms are self-cleaning roller conveying devices. The primary conveying mechanisms are located below the sheep bed platform, and the conveying ends of each primary conveying mechanism are connected to the secondary conveying mechanism. Each primary conveying mechanism transports debris that falls off the sheep bed platform to the secondary conveying mechanism. Both the primary and secondary conveying mechanisms are self-cleaning roller conveying devices, which can clean each roller while collecting and conveying debris.

[0010] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the conveyor belt of the primary conveying mechanism and / or the secondary conveying mechanism is provided with a leakage hole.

[0011] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the rear section of the secondary conveying mechanism is tilted and raised, and a loading area is provided at the conveying end of the secondary conveying mechanism.

[0012] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the conveyor belt of the secondary conveying mechanism is provided with material conveying protrusions.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: 1. In the self-cleaning roller conveyor, cleaning rollers are provided at both the active roller and the driven roller. The cleaning roller rotates relative to the corresponding active roller or driven roller and cleans the active roller and driven roller. The bristles on the cleaning roller are spirally distributed, so that while cleaning the active roller and driven roller, the cleaning roller can also convey the brushed debris to the end of the cleaning roller, which improves the cleaning effect and effectively avoids adverse effects such as conveyor belt deviation and wrinkling caused by debris adhering to the roller; 2. The primary and secondary conveying mechanisms of the manure removal equipment both adopt the self-cleaning roller conveyor, which can effectively avoid the situation where sheep manure, wool, etc. adhere to the roller and affect the conveying effect. Each primary conveying mechanism collects sheep manure, wool, and other debris that fall off the sheep bed platform and conveys them to the secondary conveying mechanism. The secondary conveying mechanism then conveys the debris to the loading area for centralized processing. Attached Figure Description

[0020] 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.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] like Figures 2-4 As shown, the self-cleaning roller conveyor includes a drive roller 1, a driven roller 2, a conveyor belt, and a drive unit. Both the drive roller 1 and the driven roller 2 are mounted on the frame structure via bearing mounting structures. Both the drive roller 1 and the driven roller 2 can rotate relative to the frame structure and are parallel to each other. The conveyor belt is fitted onto the drive roller 1 and the driven roller 2, and the drive roller 1 and the driven roller 2 are tightly fitted with the conveyor belt. The drive unit is a motor, whose power output is driven by the drive roller shaft. The drive unit drives the drive roller 1 to rotate the conveyor belt, thereby conveying the product. During the rotation of the conveyor belt, the driven roller 2 is also rotated.

[0023] Cleaning rollers 3 are provided at both the driving roller 1 and the driven roller 2. Cleaning brushes 4 are mounted on the cleaning rollers 3, with bristles spirally distributed on the outside of the cleaning rollers 3 to form spiral blades. The cleaning roller 3 at the driving roller 1 is parallel to the driving roller 1, rotates relative to the driving roller 1, and its bristles are in contact with the driving roller 1. When the cleaning roller 3 rotates and cleans the surface of the driving roller 1 with its bristles, the spirally distributed bristles also convey the brushed-off sheep manure and other debris towards the end of the cleaning roller 3. Similarly, the cleaning roller 3 at the driven roller 2 is parallel to the driven roller 2, rotates relative to the driven roller 2, and its bristles are in contact with the driven roller 2. When the cleaning roller 3 rotates and cleans the surface of the driven roller 2 with its bristles, it also conveys the brushed-off sheep manure and other debris towards the end of the cleaning roller 3.

[0024] The cleaning roller 3 at the active roller 1 is driven by the active roller 1. When the active roller 1 rotates, it drives the cleaning roller 3 to rotate. Preferably, the active roller 1 and its corresponding cleaning roller 3 are driven by a belt. The cleaning roller 3 at the driven roller 2 is driven by the driven roller 2. When the driven roller 2 rotates, it drives the cleaning roller 3 to rotate. Preferably, the driven roller 2 and its corresponding cleaning roller 3 are driven by a gear. In this embodiment, when the conveying device is working, each active roller 1, driven roller 2, and cleaning roller 3 are rotating so that the cleaning roller 3 can thoroughly clean the outer end face of the corresponding active roller 1 or driven roller 2, causing wool, sheep manure, and other debris to fall off. Due to the continuous rotation of the spirally distributed bristles, while brushing off the debris from the roller surface, it also helps to convey the debris towards the end of the cleaning roller 3, preventing the debris from falling onto the inner surface of the conveyor belt and re-adhering to the active roller 1 or driven roller 2.

[0025] In some embodiments, the cleaning roller 3 is provided with two cleaning brushes 4, which are symmetrically arranged and the bristles of the two cleaning brushes 4 are spirally distributed around the cleaning roller 3. When the cleaning roller 3 rotates and cleans the active roller 1 or the driven roller 2, it can transport the two ends of the debris box that has been brushed off to the cleaning roller 3.

[0026] Each cleaning brush 4 can be configured with two or more layers of bristles to improve the cleaning effect on the roller and the conveying effect on the debris brushed off.

[0027] Example 2

[0028] like Figures 1-4As shown, the manure removal equipment includes a secondary conveying mechanism 20 and at least one primary conveying mechanism 10. Each primary conveying mechanism 10 is located below each sheep bed platform 30, and the conveying end of each primary conveying mechanism 10 is connected to the secondary conveying mechanism 20. Sheep manure, wool, or other debris on the sheep bed platform 30 falls from the holes on the sheep bed platform 30 onto the primary conveying mechanism 10 below. The primary conveying mechanism 10 conveys the debris to the secondary conveying mechanism 20, which then collects the sheep manure, wool, and other impurities and conveys them to a designated location.

[0029] In this embodiment, both the primary conveying mechanism 10 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20 are the self-cleaning roller conveying devices described in Embodiment 1. During operation, the cleaning rollers 3 in each conveying mechanism can clean the active roller 1 and the driven roller 2, brushing off wool, sheep droppings, and other debris adhering to the rollers. Furthermore, they can guide the brushed-off debris to the outside of the conveyor belt, preventing the conveyor belt from washing the debris back onto the rollers during rotation. During operation, the active roller 1 and the driven roller 2 are constantly cleaned by their corresponding cleaning rollers 3, effectively preventing adverse effects such as conveyor belt misalignment or wrinkles caused by excessive wool, sheep droppings, and other debris adhering to the rollers.

[0030] In some embodiments, the conveyor belts of the primary conveying mechanism 10 and / or the secondary conveying mechanism 20 are provided with leakage holes, so that liquids such as urine and rainwater in sheep manure can leak down through the leakage holes during the conveying of debris by the primary conveying mechanism 10 and / or the secondary conveying mechanism 20.

[0031] As a further implementation, the rear section of the secondary conveying mechanism 20 is inclined and raised, and a loading area is provided at the end of the secondary conveying mechanism 20. The secondary conveying mechanism 20 can also be configured to be inclined and raised as a whole from the beginning to the end of the conveying process. After the primary conveying mechanism 10 conveys sheep manure, wool, and other debris to the secondary conveying mechanism 20, the secondary conveying mechanism 20 raises and conveys the debris to the loading area, and then transfers the debris to a transfer vehicle at the loading area. Furthermore, the conveyor belt of the secondary conveying mechanism 20 is provided with a material-carrying protrusion 21. The material-carrying protrusion 21 can be a plate-shaped or strip-shaped structure placed horizontally on the conveyor belt of the secondary conveying mechanism 20. The material-carrying protrusion 21 can prevent the debris from rolling down the slope when it is raised and conveyed by the secondary conveying mechanism 20, thereby improving the conveying efficiency.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
