Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of vertical feeding elevators, and particularly relates to a vertical feeding elevator. Background Technology

[0002] The demand for automated production lines is growing in modern manufacturing, food processing, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries, requiring efficient, precise, and unmanned operation in material conveying. Vertical conveying elevators are a type of material conveying equipment widely used in industrial fields, mainly used to efficiently and continuously lift materials vertically to a specified height. Currently, vertical conveying suffers from low efficiency and easy spillage.

[0003] A patent with publication number CN220098435U discloses a vertical feeding elevator, relating to the technical field of feeding elevators. Specifically, it includes a base plate with U-shaped plates symmetrically arranged on both sides above it. Each U-shaped plate has symmetrically arranged strip-shaped blocks at its bottom ends, which are vertically fixed to the base plate. Each strip-shaped block has a strip-shaped cavity at its top along its length, and the bottom ends of the U-shaped plates are correspondingly housed within these cavities. The sides of the U-shaped plates are connected to the base plate via a lifting drive mechanism. A first connecting rod is located at the top between the two U-shaped plates. In use, the lifting and lowering of the U-shaped plates within the strip-shaped cavities, combined with the horizontal movement of the third connecting rod, drives the tensioning and untensioning of the chain, thereby adjusting the tilting height of the feeding hopper according to the required feeding device height. However, this equipment cannot achieve integrated feeding and discharging transportation, resulting in low transportation efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a vertical feeding elevator to solve these problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to design a vertical material lifting machine with high transportation efficiency to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned technologies.

[0005] To solve the above problems, this utility model designs a vertical feeding elevator with a support frame. The support frame is equipped with a vertical conveying mechanism and a discharge mechanism. The discharge mechanism is located on the upper part of the support frame. The vertical conveying mechanism includes a frame, a transport hopper, and a driving mechanism. The frame is movably arranged along the support frame and is driven to move up and down by the driving mechanism. The transport hopper is pivotally arranged on the frame. The transport hopper is equipped with a first driving member that is offset from the pivot axis of the transport hopper. The discharge mechanism is equipped with a second driving member. The transport hopper is driven by the driving mechanism to move upward along the support frame. The first driving member and the second driving member engage to drive the transport hopper to rotate around its pivot axis and pour material to the discharge mechanism.

[0006] As a further solution of this utility model, it also includes a feeding assembly, which includes a feeding end and a feeding channel. The feeding channel is pivotally arranged relative to the feeding end. The vertical conveying mechanism is provided with a third driving member, and the feeding channel is provided with a fourth driving member. The transport hopper is driven by the driving mechanism to move up and down along the support. The third driving member and the fourth driving member engage to drive the feeding channel to rotate around its pivot to close or open the feeding channel.

[0007] As a further solution of this utility model, the feeding assembly further includes a reset member, which acts between the feeding channel and the feeding end to keep the feeding channel closed when there is no external force.

[0008] As a further solution of this utility model, the driving mechanism includes a chain tooth and a chain. The sprocket of the chain tooth is rotatably connected to the bracket, and the chain meshes with the sprocket. The rotation of the sprocket drives the chain, and the chain drives the conveying hopper to perform a vertical cyclic movement.

[0009] As a further solution of this utility model, the feeding channel includes a fixed channel and a movable channel. One end of the fixed channel is fixed to the feeding end, and the other end is rotatably connected to the movable channel. The fourth driving member is a round rod on the movement trajectory of the conveying hopper. The third driving member is a pressure plate, which is fixed to the frame. When the conveying hopper moves downward, the pressure plate presses down on the round rod and drives the round rod to move downward, causing the movable channel to rotate downward around the fixed channel, so that the material in the movable channel tilts and falls into the conveying hopper.

[0010] As a further solution of this utility model, the transport hopper has a channel groove on the side near the movable channel. When the movable channel rotates downward, the end near the transport hopper is inserted into the channel groove of the transport hopper to discharge material.

[0011] As a further solution of this utility model, the feeding assembly is characterized in that a base is provided on the outer sleeve, the base is fixed to the bracket, a connecting rod is fixed to the top of the movable channel, and the reset component is a spring, with one end of the spring fixed to the base and the other end fixed to the connecting rod.

[0012] As a further solution of this utility model, a vibrator is provided in the feeding channel. The vibrator drives the feeding channel to vibrate, assists in material discharge, and increases the discharge efficiency. The vibrator is manufactured by Yuyao Zhizhou Machinery Co., Ltd., and the model is Zhizhen 180.

[0013] As a further solution of this utility model, the second driving member includes a guide groove, which is located at the position corresponding to the movement trajectory of the discharge mechanism and the conveying hopper, and is horizontally arranged inside the discharge mechanism. The side of the guide groove close to the movement trajectory of the conveying hopper is inclined downward to form an inlet, and the first driving member is a round rod.

[0014] As a further solution of this utility model, the discharge mechanism adopts an inclined design, with the channel forming an angle of 30 to 45 degrees with the horizontal plane. The bottom of the discharge mechanism is provided with a guide path to guide the discharge and prevent the material from scattering.

[0015] In summary, this utility model has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the figure, a vertical feeding elevator described in this embodiment includes a support 1. The support 1 is provided with a vertical conveying mechanism 4 and a discharge mechanism 2. The discharge mechanism 2 is located on the upper part of the support 1. The vertical conveying mechanism 4 includes a frame 41, a transport hopper 42 and a drive mechanism 43. The frame 41 is movably arranged along the support 1 and is driven to move up and down by the drive mechanism 43. The transport hopper 42 is pivotally arranged on the frame 41. The transport hopper 42 is provided with a first drive member 423 and the first drive member 423 is disposed off the pivot axis 422 of the transport hopper 42. The discharge mechanism 2 is provided with a second drive member 202. The transport hopper 42 is driven by the drive mechanism 43 to move upward along the support 1. The first drive member 423 and the second drive member 202 engage to drive the transport hopper 42 to rotate around its pivot axis 422 and pour material to the discharge mechanism 2.

[0030] It also includes a feeding assembly 3, which includes a feeding end 7 and a feeding channel 5. The feeding channel 5 is pivotally disposed relative to the feeding end 7. The vertical conveying mechanism 4 is provided with a third driving member 411, and the feeding channel 5 is provided with a fourth driving member 522. The transport hopper 42 is driven by the driving mechanism 43 to move up and down along the support 1. The third driving member 411 and the fourth driving member 522 engage to drive the feeding channel 5 to rotate around its pivot 422, thereby closing or opening the feeding channel 5.

[0031] The feeding assembly 3 also includes a reset member 53, which acts between the feeding channel 5 and the feeding end 7 to keep the feeding channel 5 closed when there is no external force.

[0032] The drive mechanism 43 includes a chain tooth 431 and a chain 432. The sprocket of the chain tooth 431 is rotatably connected to the bracket 1. The chain 432 meshes with the sprocket. The rotation of the sprocket drives the chain 432, and the chain 432 drives the conveying hopper 42 to perform a vertical cyclic movement.

[0033] There are four sprockets, which are set in pairs at the top and bottom ends of the support 1. The two ends of the chain 432 are fixed at the top and bottom ends of the outer frame 41, forming a closed loop structure. The rotation of the sprockets drives the chain 432 to drive the conveying hopper 42 to make vertical cyclic movement, so as to realize the continuous conveying of materials.

[0034] The feeding channel 5 includes a fixed channel 51 and a movable channel 52. One end of the fixed channel 51 is fixed to the feeding end 7, and the other end is rotatably connected to the movable channel 52. The fourth driving member 522 is on the movement trajectory of the conveying hopper 42. The fourth driving member 522 is a round rod, and the third driving member 411 is a pressure plate. The pressure plate is fixed to the frame 41. When the conveying hopper 42 moves downward, the pressure plate presses down on the round rod and drives the round rod to move downward, so that the movable channel 52 rotates downward around the fixed channel 51, causing the material in the movable channel 52 to tilt and fall into the conveying hopper 42.

[0035] The transport hopper 42 has a channel groove 421 on the side near the movable channel 52. When the movable channel 52 rotates downward, the end near the transport hopper 42 is inserted into the channel groove 421 of the transport hopper 42 to discharge material.

[0036] The feeding assembly 3 is fitted with a base 6, which is fixed to the bracket 1. A connecting rod 521 is fixed to the top of the movable channel 52. The reset component 53 is a spring, with one end of the spring fixed to the base 6 and the other end fixed to the connecting rod 521.

[0037] The feeding channel 5 is equipped with a vibrator 54, which drives the feeding channel 5 to vibrate, assists in material discharge, and increases the discharge efficiency. The vibrator 54 is manufactured by Yuyao Zhizhou Machinery Co., Ltd., and is a linear vibrator.

[0038] The second driving member 202 includes a guide groove 2021, which is located at the position corresponding to the movement trajectory of the discharge mechanism 2 and the transport hopper 42, and is horizontally arranged inside the discharge mechanism 2. The guide groove 2021 is inclined downward on the side near the movement trajectory of the transport hopper 42 to form an inlet 2022. The first driving member 423 is a round rod. When the transport hopper 42 moves upward, the first driving member 423 is engaged in the inlet 2022. The transport hopper 42 continues to move upward, and the first driving member 423 pushes forward along the guide groove 2021 to drive the transport hopper 42 to rotate around its pivot 422 and pour material into the discharge mechanism 2. When the transport hopper 42 moves downward, the first driving member 423 moves horizontally inward in the guide groove 2021. After the transport hopper 42 rotates around its pivot 422 and returns to its original position, the first driving member 423 moves out through the inlet 2022.

[0039] The discharge mechanism 2 adopts an inclined design, with the channel forming an angle of 10 degrees with the horizontal plane. The bottom of the discharge mechanism 2 is provided with a guide passage 201 to guide the discharge and prevent the material from scattering.

[0040] The working principle of the vertical feeding elevator provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0041] During loading, the drive mechanism 43 transmits the transport hopper 42 to the bottom of the support 1. The third drive member 411 presses down on the fourth drive member 522 and drives the fourth drive member 522 to move downward. The fourth drive member 522 drives one end of the movable channel 52 to move downward. When the movable channel 52 moves downward, it gets stuck in the channel groove 421 of the transport hopper 42. At this time, the movable channel 52 tilts, and the vibrator 54 drives the feeding channel 5 to vibrate, and the auxiliary material falls into the transport hopper 42.

[0042] During material transport, the drive mechanism 43 conveys the transport hopper 42 upwards. At this time, the movable channel 52 is reset by the reset component 53. Subsequently, when the transport hopper 42 moves to the discharge mechanism 2, the first drive component 423 moves into the guide groove 2021. The transport hopper 42 continues to move upwards. The transport hopper 42 rotates around its pivot 422 and pours material into the discharge mechanism 2. The transport hopper 42 moves downwards. The first drive component 423 moves horizontally inwards in the guide groove 2021. After the transport hopper 42 rotates around its pivot 422 and returns to its original position, the first drive component 423 moves out through the inlet 2022 to perform cyclic material transport.

[0043] This utility model is not limited to the above-described preferred embodiments. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the guidance of this utility model. However, regardless of any changes made in their shape or structure, any technical solution that is the same as or similar to this application falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
