[0002] In various industries and applications, such as factory production lines, warehousing equipment, and conveying systems, materials and products frequently need to be moved from one location to another. Current technologies typically use feed pipes for this purpose.

[0003] The feeding pipeline mainly consists of a hollow tube. One end of the tube is located at the starting position of the material and product, and the other end is located at the target conveying position of the material and product. The material and product enter the tube from one end and slide down the pipeline to reach the target conveying position, resulting in high conveying efficiency.

[0004] The shortcomings of existing feeding pipe devices include: the diameter (width) of the pipe body is a fixed value, which can only allow materials and products with a size smaller than the set value to use the feeding pipe device. When it is necessary to transport large-sized materials and products, it is necessary to replace it with a feeding pipe device with a thicker pipe body, which is inconvenient to use.

[0030] This embodiment discloses a material feeding pipe that can be applied in various industries and application scenarios, including but not limited to factory production lines, warehousing equipment, and conveying systems, to transport materials and products from one location to another.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the feeding pipeline includes a fixed platform 1, at least two conveying pipes 2, a rotating component 3, and a drive device 4. The output end of the drive device 4 is fixedly connected to the rotating component 3, and the rotating component 3 is fixedly connected to the fixed platform 1. The drive device 4 can drive the fixed platform 1 to rotate around the extension direction of the rotating component 3 via the rotating component 3. All conveying pipes 2 can rotate synchronously with the fixed platform 1, so that one conveying pipe 2 is in the conveying start position. The specific shape of the conveying pipe 2 is not limited and can be determined according to the shape of the material and product.

[0032] The cross-sectional dimensions of the conveying channels within all conveying pipes 2 are different. When using them, select the appropriate conveying pipe 2 according to the specifications and dimensions of the materials and products. The drive device 4 drives the rotating component 3 to rotate around its own extension direction (axis). The rotating component 3 drives the fixed platform 1 to rotate synchronously until the selected conveying pipe 2 is delivered to the starting position. Materials and products can be delivered to the target position simply by passing through the conveying pipe 2. There is no need to change the feeding pipe due to changes in the size of the materials and products, making it more convenient to use, completing the conveying process, and applicable to a wide range of applications.

[0033] To facilitate the smooth flow of materials and products into the conveying pipe 2, the discharge pipe also includes a hopper 7, which is connected to the feed end (top) of the conveying pipe 2. The hopper 7 has a perforated structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, allowing materials and products of a larger range to be collected into the hopper 7, and then falling down into the conveying pipe 2.

[0034] To improve the overall structural stability, the feeding pipe also includes a base plate 8. The drive device 4 is fixedly connected to the base plate 8, and the fixed platform 1 is fixedly connected to the base plate 8 via the rotating component 3 and the drive device 4. The specific shape of the base plate 8 is not limited, as long as it can stably support the fixed platform 1, the rotating component 3, and the drive device 4. In this embodiment, the base plate 8 is a large-area sheet structure, and the drive device 4 is located on the base plate 8 near the center, making the force on the base plate 8 more balanced.

[0035] Based on the above structure, the feeding pipe also includes a dust removal mechanism, which uses airflow to clean residual impurities and dust from the conveying pipe 2. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the dust removal mechanism includes a cover 51, an air pump 52, an air inlet pipe 53, a connecting pipe 54, a gas conveying duct 55, and at least two fixed pipes 56. The cover 51 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the fixed platform 1. All the fixed pipes 56 are evenly distributed on the outer periphery of the fixed platform 1. Each fixed pipe 56 is connected to a conveying pipe 2. The gas conveying duct 55 can be connected to the conveying pipe 2 through the fixed pipes 56.

[0036] An air pump 52 is installed inside a housing 51. One end of an air inlet pipe 53 extends out of the housing 51 and connects to the air, while the other end connects to the air extraction port 521 of the air pump 52. The air pump 52 can draw air from the surrounding environment into the housing 51 through the air inlet pipe 53 and the air extraction port 521. One end of a connecting pipe 54 connects to the inside of the housing 51, while the other end connects to a gas conveying duct 55. Air in the housing 51 can enter the conveying pipe 2 through the connecting pipe 54, the gas conveying duct 55, and the fixed pipe 56. This is used to clean residual impurities and dust from the conveying pipe 2, preventing blockages and ensuring smoother and more efficient material and product conveying.

[0037] Based on the above structure, the dust removal mechanism also includes a filter screen 57. The filter screen 57 is located in the housing 51 and between the air outlet of the air pump 52 and the connecting pipe 54, isolating the lower space of the housing 51 to form a clean space 59.

[0038] When dust removal is required, the air pump 52 draws air from the surrounding environment into the housing 51. The air in the housing 51 is filtered at the filter screen 57, and impurities and dust are intercepted on the filter screen 57. The filtered air enters the clean space 59. The clean air enters the conveying pipe 2 after passing through the connecting pipe 54, the gas conveying duct 55 and the fixed pipe 56. When the airflow passes through the conveying pipe 2, it can carry away impurities and dust in the conveying pipe 2, so as to avoid contamination of the transported materials and products by impurities and dust.

[0039] The specific location of the gas delivery duct 55 is not limited, as long as it can connect the connecting pipe 54 and the fixed pipe 56 together. In this embodiment, the gas delivery duct 55 is located in the fixed platform 1. The cover 51 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed platform 1. The connecting pipe 54 passes through the bottom surface of the cover 51 and part of the fixed platform 1 and connects to the gas delivery duct 55, so as to connect the interior of the cover 51 and the gas delivery duct 55 together, allowing air in the cover 51 to enter the gas delivery duct 55.

[0040] Based on the above structure, the dust removal mechanism also includes an air pump mounting component 58, through which the air pump 52 is fixed inside the housing 51. Specifically, the air pump mounting component 58 is disposed in the housing 51 and located at the upper part of the housing 51, while the air pump 52 is located below the air pump mounting component 58. The specific connection structure between the air pump mounting component 58 and the air pump 52 is not limited, as long as it can stably support the air pump 52.

[0041] The fixed platform 1 is mounted on the rotating component 3 and can rotate with it. The weight and rotational torque of the fixed platform 1 are both applied to the rotating component 3. To improve the stability of the rotating component 3, the feeding pipe also includes a support mechanism. The support mechanism is movably connected to the side of the rotating component 3, providing auxiliary support force to the rotating component 3 without affecting its rotation around its axis, preventing the rotating component 3 from moving or bending radially. This makes the overall working state of the feeding pipe more stable and extends the service life of the overall structure.

[0042] The specific structure of the support mechanism is not limited, as long as it can provide auxiliary support force for the rotating component 3. In this embodiment, for example... Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the support mechanism includes a slider 61, a connecting plate 62, and at least two support rods 63. An annular groove 31 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the rotating component 3. The slider 61 is located in the annular groove 31, and the slider 61 and the connecting plate 62 are fixed relative to each other. One end of each support rod 63 is connected to the connecting plate 62, and the other end is fixedly connected to the base plate 8. When the rotating component 3 rotates around its own axis, the slider 61 can slide along the annular groove 31, meaning the slider 61 can rotate relative to the rotating component 3 without affecting the rotation of the fixed platform 1 by the rotating component 3, thus improving the stability of the rotating component 3 during rotation.

[0043] The slider 61 and the connecting plate 62 can be an integral structure; for ease of processing, the slider 61 and the connecting plate 62 can also be separate structures. After the slider 61 is placed into the annular groove 31, the slider 61 and the connecting plate 62 are fixedly connected together by a connector (not shown), so that the connecting plate 62 can provide support force to the rotating part 3 through the slider 61.

[0044] To reduce the friction between the slider 61 and the annular groove 31, the support mechanism also includes a ball bearing 64. Specifically, a ball bearing recess 32 is provided on the bottom surface of the annular groove 31, and a slider recess 611 is provided on the bottom surface of the slider 61.

[0045] After installation, the bottom end of the ball bearing 64 is located in the ball bearing recess 32, and the top end of the ball bearing 64 is located in the slider recess 611. When the slider 61 and the rotating component 3 rotate relative to each other, the ball bearing 64 rolls and / or slides in the annular groove 31, reducing the friction between the slider 61 and the annular groove 31. This makes the rotating component 3 rotate more smoothly and effortlessly, extending the service life of both the slider 61 and the rotating component 3.

[0046] Based on the above structure, a lubrication channel 621 is provided in the connecting disk 62. One end of the lubrication channel 621 is connected to the slider groove 611, and the other end of the lubrication channel 621 is connected to the outer wall surface of the connecting disk 62. Lubricating oil can reach the ball 64 through the lubrication channel 621 to lubricate the slider 61 and the ball 64 and reduce friction.

[0047] A flow channel cover 65 is provided on the port of the lubrication flow channel 621 connecting to the outer wall of the connecting plate 62. Normally, the flow channel cover 65 closes the lubrication flow channel 621 to prevent impurities and dust from entering the lubrication flow channel 621. When it is necessary to lubricate the slider 61 and the ball 64, the flow channel cover 65 is opened, and lubricating oil is added to the lubrication flow channel 621. After passing through the lubrication flow channel 621, the lubricating oil enters the slider 61, lubricating the slider 61 and the ball 64 and reducing friction.

[0048] Note that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions can be made without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and may include many other equivalent embodiments without departing from the concept of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
