Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of salt transport switchboards, and more particularly to a self-cleaning device for salt transport switchboards. Background Technology

[0002] Salt refers to various types of salt, such as sea salt, well salt, mineral salt, lake salt, and soil salt. During the salt production process, salt needs to be packaged and transported. During transportation, if the packaging bags break, salt may spill onto the conveyor belt. Because salt crystals are corrosive, the conveyor belt needs to be cleaned in a timely manner. This requires the use of cleaning equipment to prevent the belt from being corroded by salt crystals or from being blocked by packaging bags during transportation.

[0003] The existing self-cleaning device for salt transport switches lacks a quick-drying function. Without this function, it may take some time before the conveyor belt can be put back into use after cleaning, which can lead to reduced work efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, in view of the problem that the existing self-cleaning device for salt transport switches lacks a quick-drying function and requires a period of waiting after cleaning before it can be put back into use, resulting in reduced work efficiency, there is an urgent need to design a new type of self-cleaning device for salt transport switches. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the problem that the existing salt transport switch self-cleaning device lacks a quick-drying function and requires a period of waiting after cleaning before it can be put back into use, resulting in reduced work efficiency.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a self-cleaning device for salt transport ramps, including a conveyor belt; it also includes an installation platform, a motor, a gear, a limiting frame, a connecting groove, a rack, a connecting rod, a scraper, a connecting plate, an installation frame, and a heating tube. An installation platform is installed on the front side of the left surface of the conveyor belt, a motor is installed on the front surface of the installation platform, and a gear is connected to the output end of the motor. A limiting frame is installed on the left surface of the conveyor belt in front of the installation platform. A connecting groove is opened on the upper side of the rear surface of the limiting frame. A rack is slidably connected inside the limiting frame, and the gear meshes with the rack. A connecting rod is installed on the lower right surface of the rack, a scraper is installed on the right surface of the connecting rod, a connecting plate is installed in the middle of the front surface of the scraper, an installation frame is installed on the front surface of the connecting plate, and a heating tube is installed inside the installation frame.

[0007] Preferably, a motor is installed, which drives a gear to rotate. When the gear rotates, it meshes with a rack through a connecting groove. The rack's freedom is restricted by a limiting frame, causing the rack and its connected parts to move together. A scraper is installed, which rises after the rack rises, thus contacting the conveyor belt surface. The conveyor belt is then started to scrape off the residual cleaning liquid on the surface. A heating element is then installed for drying. When the cleaning process is not in progress, the motor is started to move the rack down, causing the scraper to leave the conveyor belt surface and avoid prolonged contact that could scratch the surface. This achieves the purpose of quickly drying the conveyor belt surface, solving the problem that existing salt transport switch self-cleaning devices lack a quick-drying function. Without a quick-drying function, there may be a waiting period after cleaning before the conveyor belt can be put back into use, resulting in reduced work efficiency.

[0008] Preferably, a mounting plate is installed on the front right side of the conveyor belt, a limit rod is installed on the lower surface of the mounting plate, a connecting rod is installed on the right surface of the scraper, and a slider is installed on the right surface of the connecting rod, with the slider slidably connected to the limit rod.

[0009] Preferably, an L-shaped plate is installed at the middle position on the left side of the lower surface of the conveyor belt, a second motor is installed on the left surface of the L-shaped plate, a drive shaft is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the L-shaped plate, a sponge brush is connected to the upper surface of the drive shaft through the lower surface of the L-shaped plate, and a drive belt is sleeved on the outer surface of the drive shaft and the output end of the second motor.

[0010] Preferably, a second mounting plate is installed on the lower left rear position of the conveyor belt. The left surface of the second mounting plate has a mounting groove, inside which a first pipe is installed. Several nozzles are installed on the upper side of the outer surface of the first pipe.

[0011] Preferably, a storage bin is located directly below the conveyor belt, a water pump is installed on the rear right side of the storage bin, one end of pipe two is connected to the right side of the water pump, the other end of pipe two is connected to the right side of pipe one, and a ball valve is installed on the left side of pipe one.

[0012] Preferably, a groove is provided on the upper side of the rear surface of the storage compartment, and a filter plate is slidably connected inside the groove. A handle is installed on the rear surface of the filter plate.

[0013] Preferably, a flange is mounted on the left surface of the ball valve.

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

[0015] 1. By setting up motor one, when motor one is running, it drives the gear to rotate. When the gear rotates, it meshes with the rack through the connecting groove. The rack's degree of freedom is then restricted by the limiting frame, thereby driving the rack and its connected parts to move together. When the rack rises, it drives the scraper to the working position to scrape off the residual cleaning liquid on the conveyor belt surface. Simultaneously activated heating tubes dry the area behind the scraped area. When not performing the cleaning process, motor one is started to move the rack down, so that the scraper leaves the conveyor belt surface to avoid prolonged contact and scratching of the conveyor belt surface. This achieves the purpose of quickly drying the conveyor belt surface, thus solving the problem that the existing salt transport switch self-cleaning device lacks a quick-drying function. Without a quick-drying function, there may be a period of waiting after cleaning before the conveyor belt can be put back into use, resulting in reduced work efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides an embodiment of a self-cleaning device for a salt transport switch, including a conveyor belt 1; it also includes an installation platform 2, a motor 3, a gear 4, a limiting frame 5, a connecting groove 6, a rack 7, a connecting rod 8, a scraper 9, a connecting plate 10, an installation frame 11, and a heating tube 12. The installation platform 2 is installed on the front side of the left surface of the conveyor belt 1, and the motor 3 is installed on the front surface of the installation platform 2. The output end of the motor 3 is connected to the gear 4. The limiting frame 5 is installed on the left surface of the conveyor belt 1 in front of the installation platform 2. A connecting groove 6 is opened on the upper side of the rear surface of the limiting frame 5. The rack 7 is slidably connected inside the limiting frame 5. The gear 4 meshes with the rack 7. The connecting rod 8 is installed on the lower side of the right surface of the rack 7. The scraper 9 is installed on the right surface of the connecting rod 8. The scraper 9 is installed at the middle position of the front surface of the scraper 9. A connecting plate 10 is provided, and a mounting frame 11 is installed on the front surface of the connecting plate 10. A heating tube 12 is installed inside the mounting frame 11. A motor 3 is provided, which drives the gear 4 to rotate when it runs. When the gear 4 rotates, it meshes with the rack 7 through the connecting groove 6. The freedom of the rack 7 is restricted by the limiting frame 5, thereby driving the rack 7 and its connected parts to move together. A scraper 9 is provided, which rises after the rack 7 rises, thus adhering to the surface of the conveyor belt 1. Then the conveyor belt 1 is started to scrape off the residual cleaning liquid on the surface of the conveyor belt 1. The heating tube 12 is then used for drying. When the cleaning process is not performed, the motor 3 is started to move the rack 7 down, so that the scraper 9 leaves the surface of the conveyor belt 1 to avoid prolonged contact and scratching of the surface of the conveyor belt 1, thereby achieving the purpose of quickly drying the surface of the conveyor belt 1.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment, a mounting plate 13 is installed on the front right side of the conveyor belt 1. A limit rod 14 is installed on the lower surface of the mounting plate 13. A connecting rod 15 is installed on the right surface of the scraper 9. A slider 16 is installed on the right surface of the connecting rod 15. The slider 16 is slidably connected to the limit rod 14. By setting the limit rod 14, the slider 16 is restricted in its degree of freedom, thereby indirectly restricting the other side of the scraper 9 and preventing the scraper 9 from shifting to one side. This achieves the purpose of making the scraper 9 move more stably. An L-shaped plate 17 is installed at the middle left side of the lower surface of the conveyor belt 1. A motor 18 is installed on the left surface of the L-shaped plate 17. A drive shaft 19 is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the L-shaped plate 17. A sponge brush 20 is connected to the upper surface of the drive shaft 19 through the lower surface of the L-shaped plate 17. A drive belt 21 is sleeved on the outer surface of the drive shaft 19 and the output end of the motor 18. Motor 218 is installed. When motor 218 is running, it drives transmission shaft 19 to rotate via transmission belt 21. The rotation of transmission shaft 19 drives sponge brush 20 to rotate. When conveyor belt 1 is running, sponge brush 20 is activated to scrub the surface of conveyor belt 1. Since the surface of sponge brush 20 is soft, it will not damage the surface of conveyor belt 1, thereby achieving the purpose of scrubbing conveyor belt 1. Mounting plate 22 is installed on the lower left rear position of the lower surface of conveyor belt 1. Mounting plate 22 has a mounting groove 23 on its left surface. Pipe 24 is installed inside mounting groove 23. Several nozzles 25 are installed on the upper side of the outer surface of pipe 24. By setting pipe 24, it can be connected to an external liquid storage tank. After the external liquid storage tank pumps cleaning liquid into pipe 24, it is sprayed onto the surface of conveyor belt 1 through nozzles 25, thereby achieving the purpose of rinsing the surface of conveyor belt 21.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment, a storage bin 26 is provided directly below the conveyor belt 1. A water pump 27 is installed on the rear right surface of the storage bin 26. One end of a second pipe 28 is connected to the right surface of the water pump 27, and the other end of the second pipe 28 is connected to the right surface of a first pipe 24. A ball valve 29 is installed on the left surface of the first pipe 24. By setting up the storage bin 26, the falling cleaning fluid is collected, and then the water pump 27 sends the recovered cleaning fluid back to the first pipe 24 through the second pipe 28 for reuse. When recycling, the ball valve 29 is closed first to interrupt the external pipeline and avoid mixing of liquids and contamination, thereby saving cleaning fluid. A chute is provided on the upper side of the rear surface of the storage bin 26. 30. A filter plate 31 is slidably connected inside the chute 30. A handle 32 is installed on the rear surface of the filter plate 31. By setting the filter plate 31, the falling cleaning fluid can be filtered to prevent particulate matter from entering the circulation and clogging the nozzle 25. Since the filter plate 31 and the storage chamber 26 are slidably connected, the filter plate 31 can be pulled out to clean the particulate matter filtered out on the filter plate 31, thereby optimizing the use effect of the recycled cleaning fluid. A flange 33 is installed on the left surface of the ball valve 29. By setting the flange 33, it is convenient for workers to install, disassemble and maintain the equipment, enabling quick assembly and segmented maintenance, reducing construction time.

[0025] During operation, the limit rod 14 restricts the freedom of the slider 16, indirectly limiting the other side of the scraper 9 and preventing it from shifting to one side. This ensures more stable movement of the scraper 9. A second motor 18 drives the transmission shaft 19 via the transmission belt 21, which in turn rotates the sponge brush 20. When the conveyor belt 1 is running, the sponge brush 20 cleans the surface of the conveyor belt 1. Because the sponge brush 20 is soft, it does not damage the surface of the conveyor belt 1, thus achieving the purpose of cleaning. A first pipe 24 connects to an external liquid storage tank. After the cleaning fluid is pumped into the pipe 24 from the external tank, it is sprayed onto the surface of the conveyor belt 1 through nozzles 25, thus rinsing the surface of the conveyor belt 21. The purpose is to collect the fallen cleaning fluid by setting up a storage tank 26, and then send the recovered cleaning fluid back to the inside of the first pipe 24 for reuse through a water pump 27 via a second pipe 28. When recycling, the ball valve 29 is closed first to interrupt the external pipeline and avoid mixing of liquids and contamination, thereby saving cleaning fluid. By setting up a filter plate 31, the fallen cleaning fluid can be filtered to prevent particulate matter from entering the circulation and clogging the nozzle 25. Since the filter plate 31 and the storage tank 26 are slidably connected, the filter plate 31 can be pulled out to clean the particulate matter filtered on the filter plate 31, thereby optimizing the use of the recovered cleaning fluid. By setting up a flange 33, it is convenient for workers to install, disassemble and maintain the equipment, enabling quick assembly and segmented maintenance, reducing construction time.

[0026] Through the above steps, by setting up motor 3, when motor 3 is running, it drives gear 4 to rotate. When gear 4 rotates, it meshes with rack 7 through connecting groove 6. Then, the freedom of rack 7 is restricted by limiting frame 5, thereby driving rack 7 and its connected parts to move together. When rack 7 rises, it drives scraper 9 to the working position to scrape off the residual cleaning liquid on the surface of conveyor belt 1. Simultaneously activated heating tube 12 dries the area behind the scraping area. When the cleaning process is not performed, motor 3 is started to move rack 7 down, so that scraper 9 leaves the surface of conveyor belt 1 to avoid prolonged contact and scratching of the surface of conveyor belt 1. This achieves the purpose of quickly drying the surface of conveyor belt 1, so as to solve the problem that the existing salt transport switch self-cleaning device lacks the quick-drying function. Because of the lack of quick-drying function, it may take a period of time after cleaning before conveyor belt 1 can be put back into use, resulting in reduced work efficiency.
