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.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides the following technical solution: a spiral chute anti-clogging self-cleaning device, including a support plate 1, an electric hydraulic push rod 2 fixedly installed on the top of the support plate 1, a fixed plate 3 fixedly connected to one end of the electric hydraulic push rod 2, guide sliders 4 fixedly installed on both sides of the fixed plate 3, auxiliary blocks 5 fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the support plate 1, guide rods 6 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the auxiliary blocks 5, a protective shell 7 fixedly installed on the top of the fixed plate 3, a first motor 8 fixedly installed on one side of the protective shell 7, a rotating cylinder 9 connected to the output end of the first motor 8, a lifting rope 10 fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating cylinder 9, and a connecting rod 10 fixedly connected to one end of the lifting rope 10. A cleaning cylinder 17 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting block 11. A guide pulley 12 is rotatably connected to the surface of the cleaning cylinder 17. A connecting plate 13 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cleaning cylinder 17. A second motor 14 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting plate 13. A connecting plate 15 is connected to the output end of the second motor 14. A crushing drill bit 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting plate 15. A support block 18 is fixedly installed on the surface of the connecting block 11. A nozzle 19 is fixedly installed on one side of the support block 18. A water tank 20 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the fixing plate 3. A water pump 21 is fixedly installed on one side of the water tank 20. A drain pipe 22 is connected to the output end of the water pump 21.
[0021] After the device is installed, the electric hydraulic push rod 2 starts, driving the fixed plate 3 to move up and down. The height of the fixed plate 3 is adjusted to facilitate the placement of the cleaning cylinder 17 into the spiral chute. After adjustment, the first motor 8 starts, driving the rotating cylinder 9 to rotate. The rotating cylinder 9 then unwinds the lifting rope 10, extending the working length of the cleaning cylinder 17. After unwinding, the cleaning cylinder 17 can be placed at the top feed inlet of the spiral chute, allowing it to move from the top to the bottom. The cleaning cylinder 17 can move within the spiral chute via the guide pulley 12. During the movement and adjustment, the cleaning cylinder 17 and the crushing drill bit 16 can contact the ore blocking the spiral chute. After the second motor 14 starts, it drives the crushing drill bit 16... The 6-axis rotates, and the crushing drill bit 16, through the friction generated by its high-speed rotation, can crush the ore sand blocking the spiral chute, allowing it to be discharged along the spiral chute. Simultaneously, after the water pump 21 starts, it draws water from the water tank 20 and discharges it through the drain pipe 22 into the nozzle 19. The nozzle 19 sprays water into the spiral chute, rinsing it and cooling the crushing drill bit 16, thus extending its service life. The support leg 23 can be fixed to the ground through the mounting holes, thus securing the device. All electrical equipment in this device is powered by an external power source. The motor and electric push rod of this invention are controlled by a PLC automatic control system.
[0022] In one aspect of this embodiment, the electro-hydraulic push rod 2 can drive the fixed plate 3 to move up and down after starting, thereby adjusting the height position of the fixed plate 3. During the height adjustment process, the fixed plate 3 can drive the guide slider 4 to slide on the surface of the guide rod 6. The guide slider 4 and the guide rod 5 can improve the stability of the fixed plate 3 during the height adjustment process.
[0023] In one aspect of this embodiment, the limiting block on the surface of the rotating drum 9 serves to protect the unwinding and rewinding of the lifting rope 10, preventing the lifting rope 10 from falling off during the unwinding and rewinding process.
[0024] In one aspect of this embodiment, the water inlet pipe can be opened or closed by screwing on the cap. When the water inlet pipe is opened, water can be injected into the water tank 20 through the water inlet pipe to cool the crushing drill bit 16 used for crushing, and at the same time, it can also wash the crushed ore sand to facilitate the discharge of the ore sand.
[0025] In one aspect of this embodiment, the crushing drill bit 16 located on one side of the cleaning cylinder 17 can crush the ore sand blocked in the spiral chute after it rotates, so that the ore sand can rotate downward through the spiral chute to achieve the separation effect.
[0026] In one aspect of this embodiment, the support leg 23 can be fixed to the ground through the mounting hole, thereby installing and fixing the device.
[0027] In one aspect of this embodiment, the water pump 21 can discharge water through the drain pipe 22 into the nozzle 19, so that the nozzle 19 sprays water to wash the crushed ore sand in the spiral chute and accelerate the crushing speed of the ore sand.
[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
