Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of material conveying, and in particular to a belt conveyor. Background Technology
[0002] When storing materials, they are usually transported into the silo through an opening on the top of the silo by a belt conveyor. When there is a large amount of material to be stored, multiple silos are usually required, so a corresponding belt conveyor needs to be installed on the top of each silo. This can easily lead to wasted space and affect space utilization. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to save space and reduce the adverse effects on space utilization, this application provides a belt conveyor.
[0004] The belt conveyor provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A belt feeder includes a conveyor belt located on the same side of a plurality of sequentially arranged hoppers and facing the hoppers. One end of the conveyor belt near the hopper is disposed on the upper side of the hopper located in the middle. The lower side of the conveyor belt is provided with a conveying component capable of conveying the material on the conveyor belt to each of the hoppers.
[0005] By adopting the above technical solution, the conveyor belt transports the material to the upper side of the silo. At this time, the conveying component transports the material to each silo, thereby facilitating the transport of materials to each silo while saving space and reducing the adverse impact on space utilization.
[0006] Optionally, the conveying assembly includes a distribution belt located on the lower side of the conveyor belt near the end of the hopper and parallel to the line connecting the hoppers. The distribution belt is higher than the hopper and can move along the line connecting the hoppers to the upper side of each hopper. The upper side of the hopper is provided with a drive unit for driving the distribution belt to move.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the material is conveyed to the corresponding silo, the drive unit drives the distribution belt to move to the end located on the upper side of the corresponding silo. At this time, the conveyor belt conveys the material to the distribution belt and then to the corresponding silo. This facilitates the conveying of materials to each silo while saving space and reducing the adverse effects on space utilization.
[0008] Optionally, the drive unit includes two guide rails symmetrically arranged on both sides of the distribution belt and parallel to the length direction of the distribution belt. The length of the guide rails is less than the length of the line connecting the two material bins located at the ends and the sides that are far apart from each other. A mounting frame is provided on the lower side of the distribution belt. Rollers adapted to the guide rails are installed at the four corners of the lower side of the mounting frame. A connecting shaft is provided between the two rollers at one end of the mounting frame. A drive motor is installed at one end of the connecting shaft.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the material distribution belt moves, the drive motor drives the corresponding roller to rotate through the connecting shaft, thereby driving the mounting frame to move the material distribution belt along the length of the guide rail to the upper side of the corresponding hopper, which facilitates feeding materials into the corresponding hopper, saves space, and reduces the adverse impact on space utilization.
[0010] Optionally, each guide rail is fixedly connected to an insertion plate arranged along the length of the guide rail, and each roller has an annular insertion groove on its outer side wall. When the roller rolls along the length of the guide rail, the insertion plate is inserted into the corresponding insertion groove.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, when the roller rolls, the corresponding plug plate is always inserted into the plug slot, which increases the contact area between the guide rail and the roller, facilitates the guidance of the roller, reduces the possibility of the roller deviating and detaching from the guide rail during rotation, and improves the stability of the roller.
[0012] Optionally, each end of the material distribution belt is provided with a guide plate that is fixedly connected to the end of the mounting frame. The guide plates are all inclined downwards to the side away from each other. The lower end of the guide plate is inserted into the side of the guide rail that is close to each other and is slidably connected to the side wall of the guide rail.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when feeding materials into the corresponding hopper, the mounting frame drives the distribution belt and guide plate to move until the end of the distribution belt and the guide plate are located on the upper side of the corresponding hopper. At this time, the distribution belt drives the material to move towards the corresponding hopper, so that the material is guided by the guide plate and passes through the side of the guide rail that is close to each other until it enters the hopper, which further facilitates feeding materials into the hopper and improves work efficiency.
[0014] Optionally, each of the upper ends of the guide rails is rotatably connected to a limiting plate. The limiting plates at the same end of the two guide rails rotate in a direction that moves closer to or further away from each other and can limit the material distribution belt that moves to the end of the guide rail. The guide rails are provided with rotating components that drive the limiting plates to rotate.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when the mounting frame moves to the end of the guide rail under the drive of the roller, the rotating component drives the corresponding limiting plate to rotate to a position perpendicular to the length of the guide rail and abut against the side of the corresponding roller near the end of the guide rail, thereby limiting the roller, reducing the possibility of the roller continuing to roll and falling, and reducing the adverse impact on work efficiency.
[0016] Optionally, the rotating component includes a rotating shaft fixedly connected to one end of the limiting plate. The ends of the guide rails that are close to each other are provided with oppositely arranged receiving grooves. The lower end of the rotating shaft is inserted into the receiving groove and rotatably connected to the guide rail. The lower end of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to a driving plate facing the side of the guide rails that are close to each other. When the material distribution belt moves, the limiting plates are all parallel to the length direction of the guide rails and located on the side of the corresponding rotating shaft away from the material distribution belt. The guide plate can contact the driving plate and drive the driving plate to rotate. The rotating shaft is provided with a reset component.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the mounting bracket moves towards the end of the guide rail until the corresponding guide plates on both sides first contact the drive plate at the end of the guide rail. At this time, the mounting bracket continues to move, so that the drive plate rotates towards the end of the guide rail under the push of the guide plate, and drives the limiting plate to rotate towards the side away from the guide rail to be perpendicular to the length of the guide rail through the rotating shaft. This facilitates the limiting of the roller, reduces the possibility of the roller continuously rolling and leaving the guide rail, and reduces the adverse impact on work efficiency.
[0018] Optionally, the reset component includes a torsion spring sleeved on the lower end of the rotating shaft, one end of the torsion spring being fixedly connected to the rotating shaft and the other end being fixedly connected to the side wall of the guide rail.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the drive plate drives the limit plate to rotate through the rotating shaft, the torsion spring deforms. When the mounting bracket moves to the center of the guide rail and resets under the drive of the roller, the torsion spring restores its deformation and drives the limit plate and drive plate to reset through the rotating shaft, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0020] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. The drive unit drives the distribution belt to move to the end located on the upper side of the corresponding hopper. At this time, the conveyor belt transports the material to the distribution belt and then to the corresponding hopper. This facilitates the transport of materials to each hopper while saving space and reducing the adverse effects on space utilization. 2. The drive motor drives the corresponding roller to rotate through the connecting shaft, thereby driving the mounting frame to move the material distribution belt along the length of the guide rail to the upper side of the corresponding hopper, which facilitates the loading of materials into the corresponding hopper, saves space, and reduces the adverse impact on space utilization. 3. When the mounting bracket moves to the end of the guide rail under the drive of the roller, the rotating component drives the corresponding limiting plate to rotate perpendicular to the length of the guide rail and abut against the side of the corresponding roller near the end of the guide rail, thereby limiting the roller and reducing the possibility of the roller continuing to roll and falling, thus reducing the adverse impact on work efficiency.

[0027] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] This application discloses a belt conveyor for material distribution. Example 1
[0029] Reference Figure 1Multiple hoppers 1 are arranged sequentially; in this embodiment, five hoppers are used. A belt conveyor includes a horizontal conveyor belt 2 installed on the upper side of the hoppers 1 and perpendicular to the line connecting the hoppers 1. The conveyor belt 2 is located on the upper side of the hopper 1 in the middle and always conveys materials towards the hopper 1. A receiving hopper 21 is installed on the lower side of the conveyor belt 2 near the hopper 1 to receive the material on the conveyor belt 2, and a conveying assembly 3 is provided on the lower side of the receiving hopper 21 to convey the material to each hopper 1.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The conveying assembly 3 includes a material distribution belt 31 located below the receiving hopper 21 and above the hopper 1. The material distribution belt 31 is horizontal and parallel to the line connecting the hoppers 1. The end of the material distribution belt 31 can move to the upper side of each hopper 1. The transmission direction of the material distribution belt 31 is adjustable. The upper side of the hopper 1 is provided with a drive unit 32 for driving the material distribution belt 31 to move along its own length direction.
[0031] The conveyor belt 2 transports the material to the receiving hopper 21. The drive unit 32 drives the distribution belt 31 to move to the end located on the upper side of the corresponding hopper 1. At this time, the material in the receiving hopper 21 is transported to the distribution belt 31 and then transported to the corresponding hopper 1 through the distribution belt 31. This facilitates the transport of materials to each hopper 1 while saving space and reducing the adverse effects on space utilization.
[0032] The drive unit 32 includes two guide rails 321 parallel to the length of the distribution belt 31 and fixedly connected to the upper side of the hopper 1. The guide rails 321 are located below the distribution belt 31 and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the distribution belt 31. The length of the guide rails 321 is less than the distance between the two hoppers 1 located at opposite ends. A horizontal mounting frame 322 is installed on the lower side of the distribution belt 31 along the length of the guide rails 321. Rollers 323 are rotatably connected to the four corners of the lower side of the mounting frame 322. The rollers 323 on the same side of the mounting frame 322 are all in contact with the upper side of the same guide rail 321 and roll along the length of the guide rail 321. A horizontal connecting shaft 324 is passed through and fixedly connected to the axis of the two rollers 323 at one end of the mounting frame 322, and a drive motor 325 fixedly connected to the lower side of the mounting frame 322 is installed at the end of the connecting shaft 324.
[0033] When the material distribution belt 31 moves, the drive motor 325 drives the corresponding roller 323 to rotate through the connecting shaft 324, thereby driving the mounting frame 322 to move the material distribution belt 31 along the length of the guide rail 321 until the end of the material distribution belt 31 is located on the upper side of the corresponding hopper 1, so as to facilitate feeding materials into the corresponding hopper 1.
[0034] Each guide rail 321 has a vertical insertion plate 4 fixedly connected to the middle of its upper side, which is arranged along the length of the guide rail 321. Each roller 323 has an annular insertion groove 3231 on its outer circumference. When the roller 323 rolls along the length of the corresponding guide rail 321, the insertion plate 4 is inserted into the corresponding insertion groove 3231.
[0035] When the roller 323 rolls, the corresponding plug plate 4 is always inserted into the plug slot 3231, which increases the contact area between the guide rail 321 and the roller 323, and at the same time facilitates the guidance of the roller 323, reduces the possibility of the roller 323 deviating and detaching from the guide rail 321 during rotation, and improves the stability of the roller 323.
[0036] The implementation principle of Example 1 is as follows: the conveyor belt 2 transports the material to the receiving hopper 21, and drives the distribution belt 31 to move to the end located on the upper side of the corresponding hopper 1. At this time, the material in the receiving hopper 21 is transported to the distribution belt 31 and then transported to the corresponding hopper 1 through the distribution belt 31. This facilitates the transport of materials to each hopper 1 while achieving the effect of saving space and reducing the adverse impact on space utilization. Example 2
[0037] Reference Figure 3 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that both ends of the mounting frame 322 are fixedly connected to guide plates 5 that are inclined downwards and move away from each other. The upper end of the guide plate 5 is flush with the upper side of the material distribution belt 31, and the lower side of the guide plate 5 is inserted into the side of the guide rail 321 that is close to each other and abuts against the side wall of the guide rail 321. Both sides of the upper side of the mounting frame 322, which are arranged along its own length, are fixedly connected to vertical guide edges 51. Both ends of the guide edges 51 are inclined downwards and move away from each other and are fixedly connected to the upper side of the guide plate 5.
[0038] When feeding material into the corresponding hopper 1, the mounting frame 322 drives the material distribution belt 31 and the guide plate 5 to move until the end of the corresponding material distribution belt 31 and the corresponding guide plate 5 are located on the upper side of the corresponding hopper 1. At this time, the material distribution belt 31 drives the material to move towards the direction of the corresponding hopper 1, so that the material is guided by the corresponding guide plate 5 and guide rail 51 and passes through the side of the guide rail 321 that is close to each other until it enters the hopper 1, which facilitates feeding the hopper 1.
[0039] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5Each guide rail 321 has a vertical limiting plate 6 rotatably connected to its upper side to limit the movement of the roller 323, and the limiting plates 6 at the ends of the two guide rails 321 are arranged opposite to each other. When the roller 323 rolls on the guide rail 321, the limiting plate 6 is parallel to the length direction of the guide rail 321. When the roller 323 rolls to the end of the guide rail 321, the limiting plate 6 adjacent to the roller 323 can rotate in a direction away from each other to be perpendicular to the length direction of the guide rail 321 and contact the corresponding roller 323, thereby limiting the movement of the roller 323. The guide rail 321 is provided with a rotating member 7 for driving the limiting plate 6 to rotate and a resetting member for driving the limiting plate 6 to reset.
[0040] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The rotating component 7 includes a vertical rotating shaft 71 that corresponds one-to-one with the limiting plate 6 and is fixedly connected to one side of the limiting plate 6. When the limiting plate 6 is parallel to the length direction of the guide rail 321, the rotating shafts 71 on the same guide rail 321 are all located on the side of the corresponding limiting plate 6 that are close to each other. The ends of the guide rails 321 that are close to each other are provided with receiving grooves 3211, and the receiving grooves 3211 on the two guide rails 321 are arranged opposite to each other.
[0041] The lower ends of the rotating shafts 71 pass through the corresponding guide rails 321 and are inserted into the receiving grooves 3211, and the rotating shafts 71 are rotatably connected to the corresponding guide rails 321. A vertical drive plate 72 is fixedly connected to one side of the lower end of the rotating shaft 71. When the limiting plate 6 is parallel to the length direction of the guide rail 321, the drive plate 72 is located on the side of the corresponding rotating shaft 71 away from the corresponding guide rail 321, and the drive plates 72 at the ends of the two guide rails 321 are arranged opposite each other and facing the side that is closer to each other.
[0042] When the mounting bracket 322 moves towards the end of the guide rail 321, the corresponding guide plate 5 drives the corresponding drive plate 72 to rotate the rotating shaft 71, thereby driving the limiting plate 6 to rotate. The reset component includes a torsion spring 8 that corresponds one-to-one with the rotating shaft 71 and is sleeved on the lower end of the corresponding rotating shaft 71. One end of the torsion spring 8 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the corresponding guide rail 321, and the other end is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating shaft 71. When the limiting plate 6 is parallel to the length direction of the guide rail 321, the torsion spring 8 does not deform.
[0043] The mounting bracket 322 moves toward the end of the guide rail 321 until the two sides of the corresponding guide plate 5 first contact the drive plate 72 at the end of the guide rail 321. At this time, the mounting bracket 322 continues to move, so that the drive plate 72 rotates toward the end of the guide rail 321 under the push of the guide plate 5, and drives the oppositely arranged limiting plate 6 to rotate away from each other in a direction perpendicular to the length of the guide rail 321 through the rotating shaft 71. At this time, the torsion spring 8 deforms, which facilitates the limiting of the roller 323 and reduces the possibility of the roller 323 continuously rolling and disengaging from the guide rail 321.
[0044] When the mounting bracket 322 moves and resets in the middle of the guide rail 321 under the drive of the roller 323, the torsion spring 8 restores its deformation and drives the limit plate 6 and the drive plate 72 to reset through the rotating shaft 71, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0045] The implementation principle of Embodiment 2 is as follows: The mounting bracket 322 moves towards the end of the guide rail 321 until the two sides of the corresponding guide plate 5 first contact the drive plate 72 at the end of the guide rail 321. The mounting bracket 322 continues to move, so that the drive plate 72 rotates towards the end of the guide rail 321 under the push of the guide plate 5, and drives the relatively set limiting plate 6 to rotate away from each other in a direction perpendicular to the length direction of the guide rail 321 through the rotating shaft 71. This facilitates the limiting of the roller 323 and reduces the possibility of the roller 323 continuously rolling and disengaging from the guide rail 321.
[0046] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
