Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transportation equipment technology, and in particular to a bucket vertical elevator. Background Technology

[0002] The working principle of a material hoist is to scoop up material from a lower storage area, lift it to the top via a conveyor belt or chain, pass it over a top pulley, and then tilt it downwards, dumping the material into a receiving trough. Belt-driven material hoists typically use rubber belts mounted on drive rollers at the top or bottom and idler rollers at the top and bottom. Chain-driven material hoists generally have two parallel drive chains, with a pair of drive sprockets at the top or bottom and a pair of idler sprockets at the bottom or top. For some applications requiring material to be lifted to a certain height, while screw conveyors can achieve this, their inclined design occupies more space and is unsuitable for some confined environments. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a bucket vertical elevator.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A bucket elevator includes a bottom box, a vertical box, and a top box. The bottom box, vertical box, and top box are connected end to end to form a Z-shaped box. A hopper is provided at the top of the bottom box, and a discharge port is provided at the bottom of the top box. A lower sprocket, a lower guide sprocket, an upper guide sprocket, and an upper sprocket are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the Z-shaped box in sequence and connected by a transmission chain. A drive mechanism coaxially connected to the lower guide sprocket is installed on the side wall of the bottom box. A plurality of equidistant material boxes are rotatably connected between the transmission chains. A limit mechanism is provided between the material boxes and the transmission chains. A scraping mechanism is provided on the inner wall of the hopper.

[0006] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes an inclined baffle and a block installed on the side wall of the material box, and a stop bar is provided between the inclined baffle and the block, the stop bar being connected to the transmission chain.

[0007] Preferably, the scraping mechanism includes a conical hopper, the inner wall of which is connected to a narrow partition plate and a wide partition plate arranged perpendicularly to each other. The wide partition plate is arranged perpendicular to the running direction of the transmission chain, and the bottom of the wide partition plate extends out of the bottom of the conical hopper.

[0008] Preferably, the edges of the material box overlap when the box is in a horizontal position.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the bottom housing is threaded with feet.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this utility model, the material enters the hopper, is separated by the narrow partition plate and the wide partition plate, and falls evenly into the material box. The eccentrically set material box is in a horizontal state, with the baffle and the block in contact, the edge of the material box facing upward, and the edges overlapping without gaps. The material falls into the material box and is leveled by the extended wide partition plate to prevent the material from piling up too high and scattering. The material box moves with the transmission chain. When it rises, the baffle and the inclined baffle contact to ensure that the material box will not tip over, transporting the material to a certain height, and finally discharging it from the outlet. This satisfies the material dropping height requirement and also reduces space occupation. Attached Figure Description

A scraping mechanism is provided on the inner wall of the hopper 5.

[0020] Material enters the hopper 5, is separated by the narrow partition plate 52 and the wide partition plate 53, and falls evenly into the material box 9. The eccentrically positioned material box 9 is in a horizontal state, with the baffle 10 and the baffle block 15 in contact. The opening of the material box 9 faces upward and the edges overlap without gaps. The material falls into the material box 9 and is leveled by the extended wide partition plate 53 to prevent the material from piling up too high and scattering. The material box 9 moves with the transmission chain 8. When it rises, the baffle 10 and the inclined baffle 11 contact to ensure that the material box 9 will not tip over, transporting the material to a certain height, and finally discharging it from the discharge port 12. This satisfies the material dropping height requirement and also reduces space occupation.

The wide partition plate 53 is perpendicular to the running direction of the transmission chain 8. The bottom of the wide partition plate 53 extends out of the bottom of the conical hopper 51. When the material box 9 is in a horizontal state, the edges of the material box 9 overlap. The bottom of the bottom box 1 is threadedly connected to a foot.
