Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grain feed hoppers, and in particular to a grain feed hopper designed to prevent arching and blockage. Background Technology

[0002] A grain feed hopper, also known as a feed hopper, feeding hopper, or unloading hopper, is a type of equipment used in material conveying systems. It is mainly used to orderly and controllably introduce or transfer bulk materials, such as grains, granules, and powders, into conveyors, mixers, packaging machines, etc.

[0003] Existing grain feed hoppers typically use vibrating motors to prevent material from arching. However, due to the long-term high-frequency vibration impact of the vibrating motor, the hopper is prone to loosening or fatigue fracture of connecting parts such as bolts and welds, which in turn affects the overall structural stability of the hopper. In addition, continuous vibration may also accelerate the wear of the hopper wall panels, shorten the service life of the equipment, and generate noise pollution, which has an adverse impact on the working environment.

[0004] Therefore, in view of the problem that the existing grain feed hoppers usually use vibrating motors to prevent arching, and the hopper is easily affected by vibration for a long time, which can lead to loosening of the connecting parts and affect the structural stability, there is an urgent need to design a new type of grain feed hopper that prevents arching and blockage. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the problem that existing grain feed hoppers typically use vibrating motors to prevent arching, the hoppers are subject to vibration for extended periods, which can easily lead to loosening of connecting parts and affect structural stability.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a grain feed hopper for preventing arching and blockage, comprising a hopper body; and further comprising a fixed plate, guide rails, a toothed ring, scrapers, a fixed plate, a drive motor, and gears. A fixed plate is provided on the upper part of the outer surface of the hopper body. Two symmetrical guide rails are provided on the upper surface of the fixed plate. A toothed ring is slidably connected to the upper surface of the guide rails. Scrapers are provided on both the left and right sides of the inner surface of the toothed ring. A fixed plate is installed at the middle right side of the outer surface of the hopper body. A drive motor is installed on the upper surface of the fixed plate. A gear is connected to the output end of the drive motor, and the gear meshes with the toothed ring.

[0007] Preferably, by setting a drive motor, its output end can drive the gear to rotate during operation. When the gear rotates, it can drive the toothed ring that meshes with it to rotate in cooperation with the guide rail. When the toothed ring rotates, it can drive the scraper to rotate synchronously. When the scraper rotates, it can agitate the material inside the hopper body, preventing the material from sticking to the wall and arching. This solves the problem that existing grain feed hoppers usually use a vibrating motor to prevent arching, and the hopper is easily affected by vibration for a long time, which can cause the connecting parts to loosen and affect the structural stability.

[0008] Preferably, the outer surface of the hopper body is connected to one end of a support rod on both the front and rear sides. The support rod is fixed to the hopper body by welding, and the other end of the support rod is equipped with a positioning component.

[0009] Preferably, the positioning assembly includes an electric push rod, a bracket, and rollers; the end of the support rod away from the hopper body is embedded with an electric push rod, the telescopic end of the electric push rod is connected to the bracket, and the inner surface of the bracket is provided with rollers, which are rotatably connected to the bracket.

[0010] Preferably, positioning plates are provided on both the left and right sides of the upper surface of the fixed plate. The positioning plates fit into the corresponding guide rails and are fixed to the fixed plate by welding.

[0011] Preferably, connecting pieces are provided at both ends of the outer surface of the two guide rails, and the corresponding two connecting pieces are fixed together by bolts.

[0012] Preferably, one end of four circumferentially distributed support legs is installed on the upper part of the outer surface of the hopper body, and the other end of the support legs is provided with a gasket.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom surface of the gasket is provided with casters, which are fixed to the gasket by bolts.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. By setting up a drive motor, its output end can drive the gear to rotate. When the gear rotates, it can drive the gear ring to rotate under the restriction of the guide rail through meshing. When the gear ring rotates, it can drive the scraper to rotate synchronously. When the scraper rotates, it can agitate the material inside the hopper body, preventing the material from sticking to the wall and arching. This solves the problem that the existing grain feed hopper usually uses a vibrating motor to prevent arching. The hopper is easily affected by vibration for a long time, which can cause the connecting parts to loosen and affect the structural stability. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment, one end of a support rod 9 is connected to both the front and rear sides of the outer surface of the hopper body 1. The support rod 9 is fixed to the hopper body 1 by welding. A positioning component is installed at the other end of the support rod 9. By setting the support rod 9 and the positioning component, the gear ring 4 can be positioned, improving the stability of the gear ring 4 during rotation. The positioning component includes an electric push rod 101, a bracket 102, and a roller 103. The electric push rod 101 is embedded at the end of the support rod 9 away from the hopper body 1. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 101 is connected to the bracket 102. The inner surface of the bracket 102 is provided with a roller. The wheel 103 is rotatably connected to the bracket 102. By setting an electric push rod 101, its telescopic end can drive the roller 103 to fit with the toothed ring 4 during operation, thereby assisting the rotation of the toothed ring 4 and positioning the toothed ring 4. Positioning pieces 11 are set on both the left and right sides of the upper surface of the fixed plate 2. The positioning pieces 11 fit with the corresponding guide rails 3. The positioning pieces 11 are fixed to the fixed plate 2 by welding. By setting the positioning pieces 11, the guide rails 3 can be positioned to ensure that the two guide rails 3 can fit tightly, thereby improving the fit between the toothed ring 4 and the guide rails 3.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, connecting pieces 12 are provided at both ends of the outer surface of the two guide rails 3. The two corresponding connecting pieces 12 are fixed together by bolts. By setting the connecting pieces 12, the two guide rails 3 can be fixedly connected by bolts, thereby improving their overall integrity.

This solves the problem that the existing grain feed hopper usually uses a vibrating motor to prevent arching, and the hopper is easily affected by vibration for a long time, which can easily cause the connecting parts to loosen and affect the structural stability.
