[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material conveying, and in particular to a conveyor material layer thickness control device. Background Technology

[0002] A twin-screw conveyor is a device that uses two solid screws, one left-handed and one right-handed, to mesh and rotate within a seamless steel pipe or U-shaped trough to achieve axial material transport. Its conveying capacity is 1.5-2 times that of a single-screw conveyor. It can gently handle materials, also has a mixing function, and produces low dust emissions. It is widely used in the food, chemical, and other industries, combining high efficiency, environmental friendliness, and multifunctionality.

[0003] Regarding twin-screw conveyors, please refer to the utility model patent application number CN2022231193602, which proposes a twin-screw conveyor that is easy to clean. When conveying lighter materials, the material feeds slowly into the hopper due to its small weight, resulting in a small conveying capacity of the twin screw shafts and affecting the conveying efficiency. Furthermore, such conveyors generally cannot control the thickness of the material layer, which can lead to overload or blockage, affecting the stability of the conveying efficiency.

[0022] Example 1, see appendix Figure 1-5 A material layer thickness control device for a conveyor includes a dual-shaft conveyor body. A thickness control mechanism is provided on the trough 12 on one side of the feed hopper 11 of the dual-shaft conveyor body. The thickness control mechanism includes a horizontal shaft 2, a baffle 3, and a locking component 4. The horizontal shaft 2 is rotatably connected between the upper ports of the trough 12. The baffle 3 is set inside the trough 12. Two arc-shaped notches 31 are arranged side by side on the lower part of the baffle 3. The two arc-shaped notches 31 are fitted into the upper part of the two auger shafts 14. The arc-shaped notches can avoid the conflict between the baffle and the auger shaft. At the same time, the arc-shaped notches 31 can also avoid the problem of avoiding the auger shaft 14 by reducing the size of the baffle 3, thereby improving its material layer control range. The upper end of the baffle is fixedly connected to the horizontal shaft, and the locking component 4 is connected to one end of the horizontal shaft 2.

[0023] A vibration motor 13 is provided on the lower part of the outer side of the feed hopper 11. The vibration force generated by the vibration motor causes the material to slide downward in the hopper, which alleviates the problem of slow feeding speed of lightweight materials in the hopper.

[0024] The front end of the material trough 12 is provided with several nozzles 51 arranged side by side. Each nozzle is equipped with a valve and is connected to a water inlet pipe 52. Water is sprayed through the nozzles to adjust the humidity of the material. For lightweight materials, this can reduce their bulkiness and facilitate rapid material discharge and conveying.

[0025] Gears 61 are connected to the outer ends of both auger shafts 14. The two gears mesh with each other. One of the gears 61 is connected to the power source 63 through a chain 62. The power source drives the gear to rotate through the chain. The meshing and rotating of the two gears drives the two auger shafts 14 to rotate in opposite directions to transport materials.

[0026] Example 2, see appendix Figure 2-6This embodiment is basically the same as Embodiment 1, and the similarities will not be repeated. The difference is that the locking component 4 includes a sector plate 41 and a U-shaped seat 45. A handle 42 is provided at the right angle of the sector plate 41. The connection between the handle and the sector plate is connected to the horizontal axis 2. Holding the handle 42 can drive the lower sector plate 41 to rotate and swing. The U-shaped seat 45 is fixed to the outer side of the material trough 12 by bolts. The arc edge of the sector plate 41 is evenly provided with a number of outer pin holes 43 in the circumferential direction. The included angle between two adjacent outer pin holes is an adjustment position of the baffle 3. The middle part of the U-shaped seat 45 is provided with an inner pin hole that corresponds to the position of each outer pin hole 43. A bolt or pin 44 is connected between the outer pin hole 43 and the inner pin hole. After the bolt or pin 44 is installed between the outer pin hole 43 and the inner pin hole, the sector plate and the U-shaped seat are locked, and then the baffle 3 in the material trough 12 is locked by the horizontal axis 2.

[0027] The outer side of the horizontal shaft 2 is provided with a mating plane 21. The upper end of the baffle 3 is attached to the mating plane 21. A locking bolt 22 is radially connected between the horizontal shaft and the baffle. The mating plane 21 enables the baffle 3 and the outer side of the horizontal shaft 2 to fit fully together. The two can be fastened and locked together as one by the locking bolt 22.

[0028] Both ends of the horizontal shaft 2 are connected to bearings 23 with seats. The two bearings 23 are fixed on the two side plates of the material trough 12. The bearings 23 support the horizontal shaft 2 from both ends by rotation, thereby improving its rotation and support stability.

[0029] When using the locking component 4, hold the handle 42 and rotate the horizontal shaft 2. The horizontal shaft drives the baffle 3 in the trough 12 to swing, changing the height of the lower end of the baffle 3 from the bottom plate of the trough 12, thereby controlling the material layer height. While the baffle 3 is being adjusted, the fan-shaped plate 41 below the handle 42 rotates accordingly. The outer pin holes 43 of different gears correspond to the inner pin holes in sequence. After adjustment, a pin is installed between the outer pin hole and the inner pin hole to lock it, ensuring that the baffle is in a stable material layer control state, effectively preventing the conveyor from overloading or clogging due to excessive material layer thickness.
