Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveyor technology, specifically to a receiving mechanism and a conveyor. Background Technology

[0002] A belt conveyor is a friction-driven machine that transports materials continuously. It mainly consists of a frame, conveyor belt, idlers, rollers, tensioning devices, and a transmission system. It can transport materials along a defined conveyor line from the initial feeding point to the final unloading point, creating a material transport flow. It can transport both bulk materials and packaged goods. Besides pure material transport, it can also be integrated with the technological requirements of various industrial production processes to form rhythmic assembly line transport operations.

[0003] CN219044625U discloses a large-angle brick and soil lifting conveyor belt, which includes a mounting frame, a drive roller inside the mounting frame, a feeding track outside the drive roller, and auxiliary feeding pushers outside the feeding track. An auxiliary unloading assembly is located inside one end of the mounting frame. Multiple pushers are provided on the feeding track and are distributed in the same direction and at equal intervals on the outer side of the feeding track. Serving as lifting ribs on the conveyor belt, the pushers can lift the material upwards, achieving effective conveying.

[0004] However, when existing elevators are conveying powder, material tends to stick to the connection between the lifting ribs and the conveyor belt. When the conveyor belt runs to the non-working section (back), the sticky powder will fall off due to gravity, causing dust and material loss. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and propose a material receiving mechanism and conveyor to solve the technical problem that materials easily adhere to the connection between the lifting ribs and the conveyor belt in the prior art, and when the conveyor belt runs to the non-working section, the adhered powder will fall off due to gravity, causing dust and material loss.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a material receiving mechanism, comprising: a material receiving component and a material collecting component. The material receiving component is disposed below a conveying structure and has a guide channel extending obliquely downward along the conveying direction of the conveying structure. The channel wall of the guide channel is curved and has a gradually expanding opening on the side facing the conveying structure. The material collecting component has a receiving cavity inside, which is connected to the guide channel for collecting materials that slide down from the guide channel.

[0008] In some embodiments, the receiving component includes at least two receiving sections and at least one guiding section. The at least two receiving sections are sequentially disposed below the conveying structure. At least one guiding section is connected to the outlet of at least one receiving section located above and the inlet of the collecting component, for guiding the material into the receiving cavity of the collecting component.

[0009] In some embodiments, the two sides of the receiving section are connected to the main body of the conveying structure through connectors, and a concave guiding surface is formed in the middle. The guiding surface extends along the length of the conveying structure to guide the material to slide down the guiding surface into the collecting component.

[0010] In some embodiments, the connector is a magnetic quick-release structure, a bolt connection structure, or a rope connection structure.

[0011] In some embodiments, the width of the receiving section is greater than or equal to the width of the working area of ​​the conveying structure.

[0012] In some embodiments, the width of the guiding section gradually decreases from the discharge port direction of the receiving section to the inlet direction of the collecting component.

[0013] In some embodiments, the collecting component includes a plurality of collecting buckets, each corresponding to a receiving section, for collecting materials that slide down from each receiving section.

[0014] In some embodiments, the receiving mechanism further includes a striking member, which is slidably mounted on one side of the receiving member, and the movement trajectory of its striking end contacts the bottom surface of the receiving section.

[0015] In some embodiments, the striking element includes a mounting base, a striking drive, and a striking rod. A mounting side plate is provided on one side of the receiving element, and the mounting side plate has a groove extending along the material guiding direction of the receiving element. The mounting base is slidably connected to the groove. The striking drive is mounted on the mounting base. One end of the striking rod is connected to the output end of the striking drive, and the other end forms a striking end for striking the bottom surface of the receiving section under the driving action of the striking drive.

[0016] Secondly, this utility model provides a conveyor, including the receiving mechanism and conveying structure described in any one of the above.

[0017] Compared with existing technologies, the material receiving mechanism and conveyor provided by this utility model, by setting up a receiving component and a collecting component, with the receiving component located below the conveyor, can collect materials falling from the conveying structure. Its guiding channel extends downward at an incline along the conveying direction of the conveying structure, effectively guiding the material to slide into the collecting component, avoiding material falling and dust problems in non-working areas. At the same time, the material collected by the collecting component can be centrally recycled and reused, reducing waste and lowering production costs. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0028] To address the technical problem of material adhering to the connection between the lifting ribs and the conveyor belt, causing dust and material loss when the conveyor belt reaches the non-working section, this utility model provides a material receiving mechanism and conveyor that can effectively collect materials and guide them to slide into the collecting device, thus avoiding material falling off and dust in the non-working area.

[0029] It should be noted that the receiving mechanism described in this utility model is used in, but not limited to, conveyors, etc. For ease of explanation, this utility model only uses the application of the receiving mechanism and conveyor in a conveyor as an example. The principle of the receiving mechanism and conveyor in other types of equipment is essentially the same as that in conveyors, and will not be described in detail here.

[0030] Firstly, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides a material receiving mechanism, including a receiving component 1 and a collecting component 2. The receiving component 1 is disposed below the conveying structure 4 and has a guide channel that extends downward at an inclination along the conveying direction of the conveying structure 4. The channel wall of the guide channel is curved and has a gradually expanding opening on the side facing the conveying structure. The collecting component 2 has a receiving cavity inside, which is connected to the guide channel to collect the material that slides down from the guide channel.

[0031] In this device, the receiving component 1 catches materials falling from the non-working area of ​​the conveying structure 4 below. The guiding channel of the receiving component 1 extends downward at an angle along the conveying direction of the conveying structure 4 and connects to the receiving cavity of the collecting component 2, allowing the material to slide down into the collecting component 2 through the guiding channel, thus collecting powdery materials and avoiding material scattering and waste. In addition, the curved channel wall and gradually expanding opening of the guiding channel can guide the material to gather, while reducing friction between the material and the receiving component 1 during the sliding process, thus reducing material wear and dust generation.

[0032] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 To reduce the scattering of powdery materials falling from a height, in some possible embodiments, the receiving component 1 includes two receiving sections and a guiding section 13. The two receiving sections are sequentially arranged below the conveying structure 4 to directly receive the material sliding down from the conveying structure 4. For ease of explanation, the two receiving sections are defined as the first receiving section 11 and the second receiving section 12, respectively. The first receiving section 11 is located above the second receiving section 12, and a gap is provided between the first receiving section 11 and the second receiving section 12 to guide the material in the first receiving section 11 to discharge. The guiding section 13 is connected to the outlet of the first receiving section 11 and the inlet of the collecting component 2, so that the material in the first receiving section 11 can be discharged through the gap and enter the guiding section 13, and slide down the guiding section 13 into the collecting component 2. By receiving the material in stages through the first receiving section 11 and the second receiving section 12, the scattering of material during the falling process is reduced, and excessive accumulation and blockage of material in the receiving component 1 can be prevented.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the first receiving section 11, the second receiving section 12, and the guiding section 13 are all conveying films. The conveying films have advantages such as good flexibility, light weight, and ease of installation and maintenance. They can effectively catch materials sliding down from the conveying structure 4 and smoothly guide the materials into the collecting unit 2. The two sides of the receiving section are connected to the main body of the conveying structure 4 via connectors 14, forming a recessed guiding surface 15 in the middle. This allows materials to converge towards the middle of the receiving section after falling. The guiding surface 15 extends along the length of the conveying structure 4, guiding the materials directly or indirectly into the collecting unit 2. Specifically, after the first receiving section 11 catches the falling material, the material gathers towards the center through the guide surface 15 and slides downwards along the inclined direction of the first receiving section 11. When the material slides to the gap between the first receiving section 11 and the second receiving section 12, the material is discharged from the first receiving section 11 and falls into the guide section 13, sliding down along the inclined direction of the guide section 13 into the receiving cavity of the collecting component 2. After the second receiving section 12 catches the falling material, the material also gathers towards the center through the guide surface 15 and slides along the inclined direction of the second receiving section 12 until the material slides out of the second receiving section 12 and falls into the receiving cavity of the collecting component 2.

[0034] In other possible embodiments, the number and arrangement of the receiving section and the guiding section 13 are not limited to this and can be adjusted according to actual needs. For example, if the length of the conveying structure 4 is long or the material falls from a great height, the number of receiving sections can be increased to reduce the risk of material scattering and blockage. At the same time, multiple guiding sections 13 can be set, with one guiding section 13 below each receiving section or below multiple receiving sections for secondary guiding, to further reduce material scattering and impact during the falling process and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of material collection.

[0035] In other possible embodiments, the receiving component 1 may also be a continuous receiving section. In this case, the receiving section is inclined as a whole. After the material slides down from the conveying structure 4, it falls directly onto the receiving section and slides down along the inclined direction of the receiving section until the material slides out of the receiving section and falls into the receiving cavity of the collecting component 2.

[0036] Please see Figure 4Both sides of the first receiving section 11 and the second receiving section 12 are connected to the body of the conveying mechanism via connectors 14. In some possible embodiments, the connectors 14 are magnetic quick-release structures, bolted connections, or rope-tethered structures. The magnetic quick-release structure includes a magnet, which is fixedly mounted on the receiving section. The corresponding position on the body is a metal material that can be attracted by the magnet. Through the interaction of the magnet and the metal material, the receiving section and the body can be quickly connected and disconnected. The bolted connection structure uses bolts and nuts to firmly connect the receiving section to the body. The rope-tethered structure uses ropes to bind the receiving section to the body; this method is simple and easy to implement, suitable for temporary or convenience-critical applications.

[0037] Furthermore, to ensure that the falling material falls accurately into the receiving component 1, in some possible embodiments, the width of the receiving section is greater than or equal to the width of the working area of ​​the conveying structure 4. In addition, the width of the guiding section 13 gradually decreases from the discharge direction of the receiving section to the inlet direction of the collecting component 2, so that the material can gradually concentrate during the sliding process and smoothly enter the receiving cavity of the collecting component 2.

[0038] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some possible embodiments, the collecting component includes a plurality of collecting buckets 21, each corresponding to a receiving section. The collecting buckets 21 are directly connected to the discharge port of the receiving section, or connected to the discharge port of the receiving section through the guiding section 13, in order to collect the material that slides down from each receiving section.

[0039] Please see Figures 2 to 4 To prevent material from accumulating on the collecting member 2, in some possible embodiments, a striking member 3 is also provided on one side of the receiving member 1. The striking member 3 is slidably installed on one side of the receiving member 1, and the movement trajectory of its striking end contacts the bottom surface of the receiving section. The striking member 3 can periodically strike the receiving section, causing the material on the receiving section to be vibrated and fall off, thus preventing the material from accumulating and sticking on the receiving section.

[0040] In one embodiment, the striking element 3 includes a mounting base 31, a striking drive element 32, and a striking rod 33. The striking drive element 32 is a motor. A mounting side plate 16 is provided on one side of the receiving element 1. The mounting side plate 16 is fixedly mounted on the frame of the conveying structure 4. The mounting side plate 16 has a groove 161 extending along the material guiding direction of the receiving element 1. The mounting base 31 is slidably connected to the groove 161. The striking drive element 32 is mounted on the mounting base 31. One end of the striking rod 33 is connected to the output end of the striking drive element 32. The other end forms a striking end and is eccentrically positioned on one side of the striking drive 32. The striking end can rotate around the output end of the striking drive 32 under the drive of the striking drive 32. At the same time, since the striking rod 33 is eccentrically positioned on one side of the striking drive 32, when the striking drive 32 is working, the striking rod 33 will generate a certain striking force while rotating. This striking force acts on the bottom surface of the receiving section through the striking end, which can pat the receiving section and thus effectively shake off the material on the receiving section.

[0041] The mounting base 31 can slide on the chute 161, thereby driving the striking rod 33 and the striking drive 32 to move back and forth along the material guiding direction of the receiving section, so that the striking rod 33 can strike different positions of the receiving section. In addition, when striking the receiving section, the striking rod 33 moves in a downward direction, which can strike the material downward, further promoting the material to slide down the guiding channel into the collecting component 2.

[0042] It should be noted that the sliding and stopping of the mounting base 31 can be controlled manually or mechanically. When manually controlled, the mounting base 31 is equipped with a limit fixing structure, which can fix the mounting base 31 onto the slide groove 161 when it reaches the end of the slide groove 161 or the desired position. The mechanical structure can be a ball screw structure, etc. When using mechanical control, the automatic positioning and stopping of the mounting base 31 can be achieved by setting sensors and a controller. When the mounting base 31 slides to the preset position, the sensor sends a signal, and the controller, upon receiving the signal, controls the mounting base 31 to stop sliding.

[0043] Of course, in other possible embodiments, the striking drive 32 can also adopt a pneumatic device or the like. The pneumatic device uses the compression and release of gas to generate striking force, and has a simple structure and fast action.

[0044] Secondly, this application also provides a conveyor, including the receiving mechanism and conveying structure 4 described in any of the above embodiments.

[0045] To better understand this utility model, the following is combined with... Figures 1 to 4The technical solution of this utility model is described in detail as follows: When conveying materials, the materials slide down from the conveying end of the conveying structure 4. The materials adhering to the connection between the lifting rib and the conveyor belt will fall off in the non-working area of ​​the conveyor belt due to gravity. The falling materials will be caught by the first receiving section 11 or the second receiving section 12. The materials falling on the first receiving section 11 will slide down along the inclined direction of the first receiving section 11 until the materials slide to the gap between the first receiving section 11 and the second receiving section 12 and are discharged from the first receiving section 11. Then, they fall onto the guiding section 13 and continue to slide down along the inclined direction of the guiding section 13. Finally, the materials slide into the receiving cavity of the collecting component 2. The materials falling on the second receiving section 12 will slide along the inclined direction of the second receiving section 12 until the materials completely slide out of the second receiving section 12 and fall directly into the receiving cavity of the collecting component 2.

[0046] This invention features a receiving component 1 and a collecting component 2. The receiving component 1 is located below the non-working area of ​​the conveyor and can collect materials falling from the conveying structure 4. Its guiding channel extends downward at an angle along the conveying direction of the conveying structure 4, effectively guiding the material to slide into the collecting component 2, thus avoiding material falling and dust problems in the non-working area. Simultaneously, the material collected by the collecting component 2 can be centrally recycled, reducing waste and lowering production costs.
