[0016] 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. 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.

[0017] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, the large-barrel-type aerial conveying structure disclosed in this utility model embodiment will first be described in detail, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes a circular track set in the air, a conveying device set on the circular track, a support device set below the circular track, and the circular track includes a turning track, an ascending track, a descending track, and a straight track.

[0018] Specifically: The support device includes a combined support leg 1, which is made of 50*50 square tubing welded together and is H-shaped. The two top ends of the combined support leg 1 are fixedly connected to a circular track, and the bottom of the combined support leg 1 is provided with two feet.

[0019] The conveying device includes multiple sections of enclosed track chain suspension conveyor track 4, multiple guide rails 3, and multiple frame beams 2. The frame beams 2 are bolted to the enclosed track chain suspension conveyor track 4 and the guide rails 3. Each section of the enclosed track chain suspension conveyor track 4 is welded together by track connecting flanges 7, which are welded to both ends of the enclosed track chain suspension conveyor track 4.

[0020] The frame beam is a quadrilateral made of 40*20 square tubing welded together; the guide rail consists of three ring rails, two of which pass through the inner sides of the left and right sides of the multiple frame beams 2 and are fixed with bolts, and the other passes through the inner top of the multiple frame beams 2 and is fixed with bolts. The bottom of the frame beam 2 is fixed to the closed track chain suspension conveyor track with bolts; the guide rail fixes the direction of movement of the large barrel.

[0021] Furthermore, each section of the enclosed track chain suspension conveyor track, which is set in the turning track, ascending track, and descending track, is formed by bending straight tracks. The bending radius is designed according to the product being conveyed. In this embodiment, the bending radius of the vertical bend is 3 meters, and the bending radius of the horizontal bend is 1.2 meters.

[0022] like Figure 5 As shown, the closed-track chain suspension conveyor track 4 includes a chain track 8 located in the middle and track supports 6 located on both sides. The track supports are provided with wear-resistant nylon support components 5, and the chain track 8 is provided with blocks 9.

[0023] like Figure 6 As shown, the stop block 9 is welded to the chain track, driving the large barrel to move linearly, turn, or rise and fall along the guide rail 3. The number of stop blocks to be welded and the welding spacing are designed according to the equipment's external dimensions, with a welding spacing of 1.05 meters, i.e., a pitch of 0.15m * 7 = 1.05 meters.

[0024] In this embodiment, the combined support leg 1 is welded to the closed track chain suspension conveyor track 4.

[0025] In this embodiment, a motor is also included, which drives the chain to move, causing the large barrel to turn, rise, and fall.

[0026] Example 2: A large-barrel-dispensing aerial conveyor line, including a conveying unit and a large-barrel-dispensing aerial conveyor structure.

[0027] The working principle is as follows: Based on the existing chain conveyor, a fixed stop block and guide rail are added. When the start button is pressed, the motor rotates and drives the chain. The stop block on the chain track moves the large barrel. The large barrel is moved forward by the stop block and the large barrel is moved forward together by the concave part of the large barrel. Under the action of the guide rail, the large barrel can only move in a fixed direction.
