Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bucket elevator devices, specifically to a bucket elevator that prevents material backflow. Background Technology

[0002] Bucket elevators are large mechanical devices that transport materials by changing their potential energy. Bucket elevators are mainly used for vertically lifting bulk materials such as cement and grain. They are characterized by having buckets to hold the materials, which are lifted by the movement of chains or belts.

[0003] However, when the material has a high moisture content, the elevator body will encounter many problems during the lifting process. Due to the high moisture content, the material is very easy to stick to the inner wall of the bucket. As the bucket moves, it will carry these stuck materials back to the bottom, thus forming a backflow phenomenon, which affects the normal operation of the lifting operation. In addition, because the particle size of the material is different, it is very easy to accumulate in the bucket, causing some material to fall back to the bottom, which further aggravates the backflow phenomenon. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the defects and shortcomings of the existing technology by providing a reasonably designed bucket elevator that prevents material backflow, which can solve the above-mentioned defects.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: it includes a base, on which a lifting machine body is mounted, on which a plurality of hoppers are mounted, on which anti-clogging components are mounted, on one side of the base a drying component, and on the base below the lifting machine body a collecting and conveying component.

[0006] Preferably, the anti-clogging component includes a mounting base fixedly connected to the hopper, a micro motor is disposed in the mounting base, a drive gear is disposed at the transmission end of the micro motor, a rotating shaft is rotatably mounted inside the hopper, a driven gear is disposed on the rotating shaft outside the hopper, the drive gear meshes with the driven gear, a plurality of agitating blocks are disposed on the rotating shaft inside the hopper, and a power supply is disposed above the micro motor on the hopper, the power supply being electrically connected to the micro motor.

[0007] Preferably, the drying assembly includes a support base fixedly connected to the base, a protective cover fixedly connected to the top of the support base, a plurality of heating plates disposed inside the protective cover, a power supply power source II disposed on the support base, and the plurality of heating plates being disposed corresponding to the top of the elevator body.

[0008] Preferably, the collection and conveying assembly includes a collection basket fixedly connected to the elevator body, a guide pipe connected to the bottom of the collection basket, a transmission pipe connected to the guide pipe, and a base fixedly connected to the base by a support rod.

[0009] Preferably, the transmission pipe is fixedly connected to a drive motor, and the transmission end of the drive motor passes through the transmission pipe and is provided with a second rotating shaft. The second rotating shaft is provided with helical blades, and the top of the transmission pipe is connected to a curved pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the curved tube is inclined.

[0011] Preferably, the collection basket is positioned corresponding to the bottom of the elevator body.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model after adopting the above structure are: This invention incorporates an anti-clogging component. A micro motor drives the drive gear to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear meshing with the drive gear to rotate. Simultaneously, the rotating shaft rotates, causing several agitator blocks to tumble the material in the hopper, thereby reducing material blockage and backflow caused by material falling back to the bottom.

[0013] This invention features a drying assembly that supplies power to several heating plates. These heating plates dry materials with high moisture content in several hoppers, reducing material adhesion to the inner wall of the hoppers and further minimizing material backflow.

[0014] This invention features a collection and conveying assembly. The collection basket collects scattered materials, which then slide into the conveying pipe via a guide tube. As the drive motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, it simultaneously rotates the spiral blades, transporting the materials from the bottom to the top, thereby reducing resource waste and improving production efficiency.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the present invention proposes a bucket elevator for preventing material backflow, which includes a base 1, an elevator body 2 on the base 1, a plurality of buckets 3 on the elevator body 2, an anti-blocking component 4 on the plurality of buckets 3, a drying component 5 on one side of the base 1, and a collection and conveying component 6 on the base 1 below the elevator body 2. The anti-clogging component 4 includes a mounting base 41 fixedly connected to the hopper 3. The surface of the mounting base 41 is coated with heat insulation material to ensure the stable operation of the internal device. A micro motor 42 is installed inside the mounting base 41. A drive gear 43 is installed at the transmission end of the micro motor 42. A rotating shaft 45 is rotatably installed inside the hopper 3. A driven gear 46 is installed on the rotating shaft 45 outside the hopper 3. The drive gear 43 meshes with the driven gear 46. Several agitator blocks 47 are installed on the rotating shaft 45 inside the hopper 3. When the agitator blocks 47 rotate, they can agitate the material in the hopper 3, reduce blockage and accumulation, and alleviate backflow. A power supply 44 is installed above the micro motor 42 on the hopper 3. The power supply 44 is electrically connected to the micro motor 42 and provides power to the micro motor 42 to ensure its operation. The drying assembly 5 includes a support base 51 fixedly connected to the base 1. A protective cover 52 is fixedly connected to the top of the support base 51. Several heating plates 53 are arranged inside the protective cover 52. A power supply 54 is provided on the support base 51. The several heating plates 53 are arranged correspondingly to the top of the elevator body 2. The collection and conveying assembly 6 includes a collection basket 61 fixedly connected to the elevator body 2 for easy collection. The bottom of the collection basket 61 is connected to a guide pipe 62 to facilitate the flow of material in the collection basket 61 to the transmission pipe 63. The guide pipe 62 is connected to the transmission pipe 63. The transmission pipe 63 is fixedly connected to the base 1 by a support rod 65. The support rod 65 can ensure the stability of the transmission pipe 63. A drive motor 64 is fixedly connected to the transmission pipe 63. The transmission end of the drive motor 64 passes through the transmission pipe 63 and is provided with a rotating shaft 66. A spiral blade 67 is provided on the rotating shaft 66. A curved pipe 68 is connected to the top of the transmission pipe 63. The rotating spiral blade 67 can transport these scattered materials from the bottom to the top. The curved tube 68 is set at an angle to ensure that these scattered materials are accurately conveyed to the top position at the end; The collection basket 61 is set at the bottom of the elevator body 2. The collection basket 61 facilitates the collection of some scattered materials and reduces waste.

[0019] The principle and usage process of this utility model: In actual use, the elevator body 2 starts and drives several hoppers 3 to start operating. These hoppers 3 are continuously filled with materials from a low position and then lifted to a high position. During the lifting process, the operator starts the micro motor 42. The transmission end of the micro motor 42 drives the drive gear 43 to rotate. Since the drive gear 43 meshes with the driven gear 46, it can simultaneously drive the rotating shaft 45 to rotate, thereby driving several agitator blocks 47 on the rotating shaft 45 to continuously tumble the materials in the hoppers 3. The unique design of the rotating shaft 45 prevents the materials from tumbling out of the hoppers 3, thus avoiding the accumulation and blockage of materials in the hoppers 3. Therefore, when the hoppers 3 are lifted to the top and ready to release materials, as much material as possible is released. At the same time, with the use of several heating plates 53, the power supply 2 54 supplies power to the heating plates 53 in the protective cover 52. These heating plates 53 are set up corresponding to the several hoppers 3 in the lifting process. Therefore, the wet materials in the hoppers 3 can be dried, reducing the adhesion of materials to the walls of the hoppers 3 and further reducing material backflow. The collection basket 61 located below the elevator can collect scattered materials. When the hoppers 3 on the elevator body 2 release materials, the openings of these hoppers 3 will be facing downwards. Some scattered materials will fall into the collection basket 61 under the action of gravity. The materials then pass through the guide pipe 62 to the transmission pipe 63. At this time, the drive motor 64 is started. The transmission end of the drive motor 64 drives the rotating shaft 66 to rotate, and at the same time drives the spiral blades 67 to rotate, continuously conveying these scattered materials to the top position. Finally, they come out from the curved pipe 68 and merge with the conveyed materials, further reducing material backflow or resource waste, and improving production efficiency.

[0020] It should be understood that the above-described specific embodiments of this utility model are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of this utility model and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Furthermore, the appended claims are intended to cover all variations and modifications falling within the scope and boundaries of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
