Description

Silo loading device {APPARATUS FOR SILO LOADING}

The present invention relates to a silo loading device.

A silo is a storage for solid bulk cargoes such as cement, cokes, grain or fodder. Silos usually have a longitudinally long shape and are large in size. A silo loading device for storing cargo in a silo is being developed.

A device called a Tripper Transfer Conveyor is known. The tripper transfer conveyor device is relatively suitable mainly for use in yards or storage areas, and is not suitable for silo loading. Specifically, the tripper transfer conveyor requires additional space and height for installation and operation, additional accessories such as multiple motors, additional power for operating some motors, and maintenance costs. It takes a lot of time, it is not easy to secure a space for installing a dust collector, it is necessary to stop loading when moving the conveyor, there is a possibility of leakage of transported materials, standardization of the conveyor belt is limited, and overall construction cost and time It is not suitable for silo loading in that it is relatively time consuming.

Referring to FIG. 1, a plurality of silos may be provided, and the plurality of silos may include a first silo P1, a second silo P2, and a third silo P3 arranged side by side in series. . The tripper transfer conveyors 93 and 94 transport materials transferred from the transport tower 91 along the belt conveyor 92 among the first silo P1, the second silo P2, and the third silo P3. It can be properly distributed to either silo. The tripper transfer conveyors 93 and 94 include a distributing part 94, which is a component for distributing conveyed materials, as well as an auxiliary transfer tower 93 for installation and operation. In order to apply the tripper transfer conveyors 93 and 94 to the silo, a space in which the auxiliary transport tower 93 is to be installed needs to be provided.

In addition, in the case of the tripper transfer conveyors 93 and 94, since the drop or drop point of the conveying material is not fixed due to the movement of the tripper, it is difficult to select a point for dust collection, and relatively many There is a concern that dust (dust) is generated and pollutes the environment.

In addition, when a fixed chute is applied to the tripper transfer conveyors 93 and 94, the vibration of the conveyor and/or the motor is transferred to the rear part, stress due to offset There is a possibility that this may occur.
