Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of calcium carbonate processing equipment, specifically to a calcium carbonate granule raw material conveying device. Background Technology
[0002] Heavy calcium carbonate is an important food additive. It is obtained by mechanically crushing and grinding natural carbonate minerals such as calcite, marble, and limestone. The ore raw materials transported from the mine are first coarsely crushed by a jaw crusher. The coarsely crushed ore then enters a fine hammer crusher for further crushing, yielding crushed stone of approximately 10mm. After screening, the crushed stone is then ground into powder by grinding equipment. In the processing of heavy calcium carbonate, the screening equipment is usually located above the fine hammer crusher. The crushed stone is conveyed to the top screening equipment by a bucket elevator. Qualified small particles are sent to the grinding chamber, while approximately 20% of the larger particles slide back to the crusher along the inclined pipe for further crushing. However, not all factories have the space to install screening equipment above the fine hammer crusher. The screening equipment and the fine hammer crusher need to be set up horizontally in different factories. This means that the crushed stone from the fine hammer crusher needs to be transported to the screening equipment by a raw material conveyor belt. The large particles of crushed stone screened out need to be returned to the crusher by a separate return conveyor belt for further crushing. Installing a separate return conveyor belt not only requires additional space but also results in high equipment investment costs and low utilization of the conveying equipment. Utility Model Content

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 5In one embodiment, a calcium carbonate granule raw material conveying device includes a frame 1, a conveyor belt 2, a material guiding assembly 3, and a material unloading assembly 4. A first drive roller 5 and a first redirecting roller 6 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the frame 1. The conveyor belt 2 is fitted onto the first drive roller 5 and the first redirecting roller 6. The material guiding assembly 3 is located at the beginning of the return section of the conveyor belt 2 and is used to guide the return material onto the upper surface of the return section. The material unloading assembly 4 is located at the end of the return section of the conveyor belt 2 and is used to scrape the return material off the inlet conveyor belt 2 for unloading. The material guiding assembly 3 includes a feed chute 301, a buffer chute 302, and a discharge guide plate 303. The feed chute 301 is located on the frame 1. On one side, the outlet of the feed chute 301 extends above the return section of the conveyor belt 2 and connects with the buffer trough 302. The outlet of the buffer trough 302 is connected with the discharge guide plate 303. The unloading assembly 4 includes a baffle plate 401, an unloading guide block 402, and a collection trough 403. The baffle plate 401 is vertically arranged between the outgoing and return sections of the conveyor belt 2 and its bottom end abuts against the belt surface of the return section. The unloading guide block 402 is arranged on the front side of the baffle plate 401, that is, the side that first contacts the baffle plate 401 when the return section of the conveyor belt 2 transports the returned material. The unloading guide block 402 is provided with a guide slope 404 on both sides. The collection trough 403 is respectively arranged on both sides of the unloading guide block 402. Specifically, both sides of the conveyor belt 2 are made of existing wear-resistant materials. The feed chute 301 slopes from one side of the frame 1 towards the middle of the conveyor belt 2, and the feed chute 301 is perpendicular to the running direction of the conveyor belt 2. The buffer trough 302 is set between the outgoing section (main conveying section) and the return section (return conveying section) of the conveyor belt 2, and is inclined downward along the conveying direction of the return section of the conveyor belt 2. The discharge guide plate 303 is connected to the low-end outlet of the buffer trough 302, and the discharge guide plate 303 is also inclined downward along the conveying direction of the return section of the conveyor belt 2; the baffle plate... Plate 401 is vertically fixed to frame 1. Unloading guide block 402 is an equilateral triangular wedge structure, and its bottom is in contact with the surface of the return section of conveyor belt 2. The top opening of the collection trough 403 is at the same level as or lower than the surface of the return section of conveyor belt 2. When the return material is transported to the position of unloading guide block 402 along with the return section of conveyor belt 2, unloading guide block 402 guides the return material into the collection trough 403 on both sides of frame 1 through the guide ramps 404 on both sides, and unloads the return material from the conveyor belt 2.In this embodiment, the inclined connection between the feed chute 301 and the buffer trough 302 reduces the drop height difference of the returned material. The transition through the buffer trough 302 prevents calcium carbonate particles from directly impacting the conveyor belt 2 surface, thus affecting its service life. The continuous inclined design of the discharge guide plate 303 further reduces the drop height difference of the returned material and guides it smoothly into the return section. The returned material is transported through the return section of the conveyor belt 2. When the returned material reaches the unloading assembly 4, the baffle plate 4... 01. The return material is blocked, and the return material is diverted to the two-sided collection troughs 403 by the guide slopes 404 on both sides of the unloading guide block 402. This avoids the unloading from one side of the conveyor belt 2, which would cause the conveyor belt 2 to run off-center due to the unbalanced force on both sides. The return section of the traditional conveyor belt is usually unloaded, but this utility model uses the return section of the conveyor belt 2 to transport the return material. There is no need to build another conveying device dedicated to transporting the return material, nor is there any need to occupy extra space. This can effectively improve the utilization rate of the equipment and reduce the investment in additional return material equipment.
[0026] In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of guide channels 304 are provided on the feed guide plate 303. The concentrated return flow is divided into several small streams by the multiple guide channels 304, and the streams fall evenly onto the return section of the conveyor belt 2. This avoids a large amount of return material from impacting a single point on the conveyor belt 2 at the same time, reduces the instantaneous impact force on the conveyor belt 2, protects the belt surface, and reduces wear.
[0027] In a specific example, the frame 1 is equipped with several outgoing idlers 7 and several returning idlers 8. The outgoing idlers 7 abut against the bottom surface of the outgoing section of the conveyor belt 2, and the returning idlers 8 abut against the bottom surface of the returning section of the conveyor belt 2. The spacing between adjacent outgoing idlers 7 and adjacent returning idlers 8 is the same. The outgoing idlers 7 and returning idlers 8 respectively support the bottom surface of the outgoing and returning sections of the conveyor belt, distributing the gravity load and preventing the conveyor belt 2 from sagging or deforming due to excessive load. Both the outgoing idlers 7 and returning idlers 8 are trough-shaped idlers to reduce the risk of spillage of calcium carbonate granular raw materials.
[0028] In a preferred embodiment, a second redirecting roller 9 and a third redirecting roller 10 are respectively provided below the first drive roller 5 and the first redirecting roller 6. A first tensioning roller 11 is provided between the second redirecting roller 9 and the return idler roller 8, and a second tensioning roller 12 is provided between the third redirecting roller 10 and the return idler roller 8. The conveyor belt 2 passes over the top surface of the second redirecting roller 9, the bottom surface of the first tensioning roller 11, the top surface of the return idler roller 8, the bottom surface of the second tensioning roller 12, and the third redirecting roller 10. The wrap angle of the conveyor belt 2 on the first drive roller 5 is increased by the second redirecting roller 9, and the wrap angle of the conveyor belt 2 on the first redirecting roller 6 is increased by the third redirecting roller 10, thereby increasing the friction and preventing the conveyor belt 2 from slipping under heavy load. The first tensioning roller 11 and the second tensioning roller 12 are respectively arranged on both sides of the return section for segmented tensioning. The first tensioning roller 11 mainly counteracts the shrinkage force of the conveyor belt 2 after unloading in the outgoing section, and the second tensioning roller 12 mainly counteracts the shrinkage force of the conveyor belt 2 after unloading in the return section, preventing the conveyor belt 2 from loosening and reducing the risk of deviation.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment, a second drive roller 13 is provided between the return idler roller 8 and the second tension roller 12. The roller surface of the second drive roller 13 is horizontal to the roller surface of the return idler roller 8. A first drive member 14 is connected to the shaft of the first drive roller 5, and a second drive member 15 is connected to the shaft of the second drive roller 13. Specifically, both the first drive member 14 and the second drive member 15 are frequency converter controlled and have the same rotation speed. The first drive member 14 drives the first drive roller 5 to rotate, thereby driving the outgoing section (main conveying section) of the conveyor belt 2, bearing the main traction force of the material and the conveyor belt 2. The second drive member 15 drives the second drive roller 13 to rotate, thereby driving the return section (return material conveying section) of the conveyor belt 2, providing power for return material transportation and avoiding tension attenuation caused by the return section relying on a single drive point.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, mounting frames 16 are provided at both ends of the first tension roller 11 and the second tension roller 12, and grooves 17 are provided on the mounting frames 16. The bearing seats at both ends of the first tension roller 11 and the second tension roller 12 are slidably disposed in the grooves 17. Hydraulic cylinders 18 are provided on the bearing seats at both ends of the first tension roller 11 and the second tension roller 12, respectively. The protruding end of the hydraulic cylinder 18 is connected to the bearing seat, and the cylinder body of the hydraulic cylinder 18 is connected to the frame 1. The first tension roller 11 and the second tension roller 12 can slide up and down in the grooves 17 to adjust the tension of the conveyor belt 2. By providing hydraulic cylinders 18 at both ends of the same tension roller, and connecting the hydraulic oil port of the hydraulic cylinder 18 to an external hydraulic station, the hydraulic cylinder 18 can drive the corresponding tension roller to slide up and down along the grooves 17 to adjust the position of the tension roller and realize automatic tension adjustment.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, pressure sensors 19 are respectively provided on the bearings of the second redirecting roller 9 and the third redirecting roller 10. The pressure sensors 19 detect the tension at both ends of the conveyor belt 2 in real time and feed the data back to the controller to calculate the tension deviation. The controller sends a control signal to control the stroke of the corresponding hydraulic cylinder 18, driving the corresponding tension roller to perform movement compensation, thereby realizing closed-loop automatic control of tension adjustment and maintaining the tension balance of the conveyor belt 2.
[0032] In a preferred embodiment, a cleaning roller brush 20 is provided on the return section of the conveyor belt 2. The cleaning roller brush 20 is located behind the baffle plate 401, and a third drive component 21 is connected to the rotating shaft of the cleaning roller brush 20. Specifically, the cleaning roller brush 20 uses high-elasticity nylon bristles, and the brush surface contacts the surface of the conveyor belt 2. The third drive component 21 drives the cleaning roller brush 20 to rotate in the opposite direction (opposite to the running direction of the return section of the conveyor belt 2) to peel off the calcium carbonate powder adhering to the belt surface, clean the residual material that the baffle plate 401 could not completely block, and prevent the residual material from being rolled into the subsequent roller surfaces such as the second tension roller 12, causing abnormal wear.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment, a purge nozzle 22 is provided behind the cleaning roller brush 20. The purge nozzle 22 faces the surface of the conveyor belt 2, which will prevent residual material from being blown off the conveyor belt 2 and further increase the cleanliness of the conveyor belt 2 surface.
[0034] In a specific example, baffles 23 are provided on both sides of the outbound and return sections of the conveyor belt 2. The baffles 23 are fixed to both sides of the frame 1, and the height of the baffles 23 is higher than the material layer height when the conveyor belt 2 is conveying material, so as to prevent material from spilling out from both sides of the conveyor belt 2.
