[0011] Preferably, an assembly frame is installed below the drive conveying assembly, and multiple assembly seats are installed below the assembly frame.

[0012] Preferably, a support is installed below the conveyor table, and multiple casters are installed at the bottom of the support. A limit screw is installed on one side of each caster, a pad is installed at the lower end of the limit screw, an adjusting nut is installed at the upper end of the pad, and an L-shaped bracket is installed on one side of the pad.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] (1) In this utility model, the internal drive conveying component is protected by the first cover and the second cover. The first cover and the second cover are also ring structures, which fit the shape of the drive conveying component. In addition, an annular channel is provided between the first cover and the second cover to reserve the connection between the drive conveying component and the hopper component, so that the drive conveying component can drive the hopper component to move.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 An embodiment of this utility model provides: a ring-shaped material hopper, including: a conveyor table 1, the conveyor table 1 including a first cover 101 and a second cover 102, an annular channel 104 is opened between the first cover 101 and the second cover 102, a drive conveying assembly 2 is installed inside the first cover 101 and the second cover 102, an annular guide groove 103 is opened at the upper position of the inner wall of the first cover 101 and the second cover 102, and a plurality of hopper assemblies 4 are installed above the first cover 101;

[0023] In the above structure, the drive conveying assembly 2 inside is protected by the first cover 101 and the second cover 102. The first cover 101 and the second cover 102 are also annular structures, which fit the shape of the drive conveying assembly 2. In addition, an annular channel 104 is provided between the first cover 101 and the second cover 102 to reserve the connection between the drive conveying assembly 2 and the hopper assembly 4, so that the drive conveying assembly 2 can drive the hopper assembly 4 to move. Without affecting the annular conveying, the protection of the conveying equipment is improved.

[0024] In addition, the hopper assembly 4 includes a hopper seat 401, and two sets of limiting wheels 402 are installed at the bottom of the hopper seat 401. Both sets of limiting wheels 402 extend into the annular guide groove 103. With two sets of limiting wheels 402 installed at the hopper seat 401, when the drive conveying assembly 2 moves the hopper seat 401, the limiting wheels 402 at the hopper seat 401 will move within the annular guide groove 103. This structure enables the hopper to have a moving function, making it easier to be moved and effectively improving the smoothness and stability of the movement.

[0025] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 4 The drive conveying assembly 2 includes a drive motor 201. The output end of the drive motor 201 is connected to a drive wheel 202 via a reduction gearbox. A driven wheel 204 is installed on one side of the drive wheel 202. A connecting belt 203 is installed between the drive wheel 202 and the driven wheel 204. An annular guide rail 205 is provided around the connecting belt 203. A displacement slide 206 is installed on the outer wall of the guide rail 205. Multiple guide wheels 207 are installed at the bottom of the displacement slide 206. The guide wheels 207 are located between the guide rail 205 and the connecting belt 203. Multiple connecting through holes 403 are opened on the outer wall of the hopper seat 401. The connecting through holes 403 are connected to the displacement slide 206 by bolts. An assembly frame 3 is installed below the drive conveying assembly 2. Multiple assembly seats 301 are installed below the assembly frame 3.

[0026] In the above structure, the drive motor 201 drives the drive wheel 202 to rotate, and through the connection of the connecting belt 203, the driven wheel 204 rotates together. The displacement slide 206 is mounted on the guide rail 205. When the connecting belt 203 moves back and forth, it will drive the guide wheel 207 at the displacement slide 206 to rotate, so that the guide wheel 207 at the displacement slide 206 will move in a ring on the guide rail 205. All of the above structures are installed at the assembly frame 3, and the assembly frame 3 is fixed to the inner bottom of the conveyor table 1 through multiple assembly seats 301.

[0027] The through hole 403 allows users to easily install bolts at this location, facilitating the connection between the hopper seat 401 and the displacement slide 206, thereby enabling the displacement slide 206 to drive the external hopper to move.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 A support member 5 is installed below the conveyor table 1. Multiple movable wheels 504 are installed at the bottom of the support member 5. A limit screw 501 is installed on one side of the movable wheel 504. A pad 503 is installed at the lower end of the limit screw 501. An adjusting nut 502 is installed at the upper end of the pad 503. An L-shaped bracket 505 is installed on one side of the pad 503.

[0029] In the above structure, the bottom of the conveyor table 1 is equipped with casters 504, which allows the user to easily move the conveyor table 1 to different positions, improving the flexibility of the equipment. After moving to the desired position, the adjusting nut 502 drives the pad 503 to rotate on the limiting screw 501 to adjust the height of the pad 503 so that it can contact the ground for anti-slip limiting, improving the stability and firmness of the equipment in the placement state. In addition, bolts can be installed at the L-shaped bracket 505 to fix it to the ground, further improving the stability and firmness of the equipment.

[0030] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
