The upper side of the cylinder 34 is equipped with a laser sensor 352, which is bidirectionally electrically connected to the microcontroller 2. The self-retracting assembly 36 includes a V-shaped plate 361, a V-shaped plate 362, a V-shaped plate 363, and a rotating ring 364. The V-shaped plate 361 is respectively located at the left and right ends of the bottom of the annular shell 31. The V-shaped plate 2 is slidably connected to the V-shaped groove 1 inside the V-shaped plate 361. 362, V-shaped plates 363 are slidably connected to the V-shaped grooves within V-shaped plates 362, and are rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the mud shell 1 via large-diameter sealed bearings 3, with a rotating ring 364.

The self-closing assembly 36 also includes connecting rods 365, slip rings 366, guide posts 367, and guide grooves 368. Connecting rods 365 are respectively disposed on the upper side of V-shaped plates 361. Slip rings 366 are slidably connected to the outer side of cylinders 34. Guide posts 367 are provided on the inner arc wall of slip rings 366, and guide grooves 368 are provided on the outer arc surface of cylinders 34. Slip rings 366 are slidably connected to guide grooves 368. The end of connecting rods 365 near the center of slip rings 366 is fixedly connected to slip rings 366.The mud-discharging power assembly 37 includes a second fixed base 371, a first guide rod 372, a second electro-hydraulic actuator 373, and a second laser sensor 374. The second fixed base 371 is respectively located at the front and rear ends of the outer arc surface of the mud shell 1. The guide rod 372 and the second laser sensor 374 are located on the upper front end of the circular plate base 351. The second laser sensor 374 is bidirectionally electrically connected to the microcontroller 2. The upper end of the first guide rod 372 is slidably connected to the circular hole 1 in the front fixed base 371. The second electro-hydraulic actuator 373 is located on the upper side of the rear fixed base 371. The telescopic end of the second electro-hydraulic actuator 373 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the circular plate base 351. The input end of the second electro-hydraulic actuator 373 is electrically connected to the output end of the microcontroller 2. The device is used to feed the clay for porcelain production. During processing, the clay raw material is conveyed into the clay mixing shell 1 through the feed pipe 4. Then, the microcontroller 2 activates the electro-hydraulic actuator 353, causing its telescopic end to drive the clay mixing head 33 to move vertically back and forth through the cylinder 34. The clay mixing head 33 moves vertically downward to mix the clay in the clay mixing shell 1. In its initial position, the clay mixing head 33 is limited by the sliding connection between the guide bar 325 and the uppermost end of the corresponding guide groove 324, so that the rings 321, 322, and 323 are initially at the same height. As the clay mixing head 33 drives the ring 323 to move vertically downward, the sliding connection between the guide bar 325 and the corresponding guide groove 324 causes the rings 322 and 323 to move vertically downward as well. The gap between the clay mixing head 33 and the annular shell 31 is sealed by the three rings 321, 322, and 323 during the downward movement of the clay mixing head 33, preventing clay from moving above the clay mixing head 33 through this gap. The rubber sealing ring 326 utilizes the compressive elastic deformation of rubber molecules to seal the sliding gap between the rings, preventing clay from entering. During the vertical downward movement of the clay mixing head 33 driven by the cylinder 34, the guide post 367 inside the sliding ring 366 slides adaptively along the guide groove 368. The lower middle part of the guide groove 368 is spiral-shaped, while the remaining part is vertical. When the guide post 367 slides into the spiral groove of the guide groove 368, it is guided by the spiral surface. This causes the guide post 367 to drive the slip ring 366 to rotate horizontally one revolution. The slip ring 366, through the connecting rod 365, drives the two V-shaped plates 361 to rotate synchronously. The V-shaped plate 361, through its own V-groove 1 and the sliding connection between it and the V-shaped plate 362, and through the sliding connection between the V-groove 2 of the V-shaped plate 362 and the V-shaped plate 363, causes the V-shaped plates 361, 362, and 363 to rotate horizontally around the center of the mud shell 1 simultaneously. The V-shaped plate 363 drives the rotating ring 364 to rotate synchronously, thereby limiting the position of the V-shaped plate 363. During the horizontal rotation of the V-shaped plates 361, 362, and 363 around the center of the mud shell 1...The portions of V-shaped plates 361, 362, and 363 furthest from the center of the clay shell 1 all scrape against the inner wall of the clay shell 1. (Both V-shaped plates 361 and 362 have internal rubber sealing strips to seal the vertical sliding gaps between adjacent V-shaped plates, preventing clay from entering. Both V-shaped plates 361 and 362 have internal guide grooves. Both V-shaped plates 362 and 363 have guide strips at the upper end of their outer inclined surfaces. These guide strips slide vertically with adjacent guide grooves, limiting their movement and preventing relative separation between vertically adjacent V-shaped plates. The specific principle is explained in the guide groove 3.) (The positional relationship between 24 and the corresponding guide bar 325) Through the squeezing force generated during the horizontal rotation of the inclined surfaces of V-shaped plate 361, V-shaped plate 362 and V-shaped plate 363 around the center of the clay shell 1, the clay at the edge of the clay shell 1 is automatically moved towards the center of the clay shell 1, improving the clay mixing effect of the subsequent clay mixing head 33. During the vertical movement of the clay mixing head 33, the microcontroller 2 activates the laser sensor 352. The laser sensor 352 emits a light signal that irradiates the top wall of the fixed base and reflects back to the initial position. Based on the propagation time and speed of the light signal, the vertical movement distance of the clay mixing head 33 is measured, and the measurement result is transmitted to the microcontroller 2 in the form of an electrical signal. The microcontroller 2 then adjusts the electro-hydraulic push rod 1 according to the measurement result. The extension and retraction stroke of the telescopic end of 353 is adjusted. After the clay for porcelain production is completed, the microcontroller 2 controls the electro-hydraulic actuator 353 to return to its initial state. Then, the microcontroller 2 activates the electro-hydraulic actuator 373, causing its telescopic end to drive the circular plate seat 351 to move vertically downward (the upper end of the guide rod 372 slides adaptively with the circular hole 1 as the circular plate seat 351 moves downward. Through the sliding connection between the two, the radial pressure applied by the circular plate seat 351 to the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic actuator 373 is borne, avoiding damage to the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic actuator 373 due to excessive radial pressure). The circular plate seat 351 drives the annular shell 31 and the indirectly connected clay mixing head 33 to move vertically downward synchronously. The annular shell 31 moves vertically downward along the inner wall of the clay mixing shell 1. In conjunction with the mixing head 33, the clay inside the mixing shell 1 is compressed from top to bottom. During this process, the microcontroller 2 activates the laser sensor 374, which emits a light signal that illuminates the top wall of the front fixing seat 371 and reflects back to the initial position. Using the same principle, the downward movement distance of the annular shell 31 is measured, and the measurement result is transmitted to the microcontroller 2 as an electrical signal. The microcontroller 2 adjusts the extension stroke of the electro-hydraulic push rod 373 based on the measurement value, causing the annular shell 31 and the mixing head 33 to move downwards until they contact the bottom wall of the mixing shell 1 and stop. As the annular shell 31 moves vertically downwards, it drives the two V-shaped plates 361 to move vertically downwards synchronously. During this process...V-shaped plate 363 adaptively extends into its corresponding V-shaped plate 362, and V-shaped plate 362 adaptively extends into its corresponding V-shaped plate 361, thus allowing the V-shaped plates to overlap vertically and be stored together. This avoids interference with the downward movement of the annular shell 31 and the clay mixing head 33. Through a transmission element, this device can automatically move clay from the edges to the center during the clay mixing process, improving the mixing effect. Furthermore, the device's clay discharge component has no dead angles, preventing clay from sticking to the mixing area.
[0032] Segmentation Mechanism 9: Located on the upper left side of the roller conveyor 8, segmentation mechanism 9 includes a support base 91, an electro-hydraulic actuator 92, a slitting blade 93, a laser sensor 94, guide rods 95, and an adjustment assembly 96. The support base 91 is located on the upper left side of the roller conveyor 8. The slitting blade 93 is located on the upper middle part of the support base 91 through the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic actuator 92. The input end of the electro-hydraulic actuator 92 is electrically connected to the output end of the microcontroller 2. The upper side of the slitting blade 93 is provided with longitudinally symmetrically distributed guide rods 95. The upper ends of the guide rods 95 are slidably connected to the circular holes 2 on the support base 91. The upper side of the slitting blade 93 is provided with a laser sensor 94, which is bidirectionally electrically connected to the microcontroller 2. The upper side of the roller conveyor 8 is provided with... An adjustment assembly 96 is provided, comprising a slide rail 961, a slide block 962, a photoelectric sensor 963, an electro-hydraulic actuator 964, and a laser sensor 965. The slide rail 961 and the electro-hydraulic actuator 964 are respectively located at the front and rear ends of the upper side of the roller conveyor 8. The slide rail 961 is slidably connected to the slide block 962, and a photoelectric sensor 963 is located between two slide blocks 962. The telescopic ends of the electro-hydraulic actuator 964 are fixedly connected to adjacent slide blocks 962, and the input ends of the electro-hydraulic actuator 964 are electrically connected to the output end of the microcontroller 2. A laser sensor 965 is located on the right side of each slide block 962, and the laser sensor 965 is bidirectionally electrically connected to the microcontroller 2. The displaced columnar clay moves along the rollers of the roller conveyor 8. Moving from left to right, during this process, the microcontroller 2 activates the photoelectric sensor 963. The front photoelectric sensor 963 emits a light signal, which is received by the receiving unit of the rear photoelectric sensor 963. Subsequently, the photoelectric sensor 963 transmits the received result to the microcontroller 2 in the form of an electrical signal. When the rightmost end of the columnar clay passes the photoelectric sensor 963, the uploaded result of the photoelectric sensor 963 changes. At this time, the microcontroller 2 shuts down the screw conveyor 6 and activates the electro-hydraulic push rod 92. The telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic push rod 92 drives the cutting blade 93 to move vertically downward, thereby cutting the left end of the columnar clay. During this process, the microcontroller 2 activates the laser sensor 94, which uses the same principle to guide the downward movement of the cutting blade 93. Distance is detected, and the detection result is transmitted to the microcontroller 2 as an electrical signal. Based on this result, the microcontroller 2 adjusts the travel of the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic actuator 92 to prevent the slitting blade 93 from cutting onto the roller conveyor 8. During the vertical movement of the slitting blade 93, the guide rod 95 slides adaptively along the corresponding circular hole 2. This sliding connection improves the vertical stability of the slitting blade 93. After the clay column on the upper left side of the roller conveyor 8 is cut into segments, the microcontroller 2 starts the roller conveyor 8. The rotating rollers transport the cut-off columnar clay from left to right. Simultaneously, the microcontroller 2 restarts the screw conveyor 6, continuing the segmenting operation of the columnar clay using the same principle. During the segmentation process of the columnar clay...The microcontroller 2 activates the electro-hydraulic actuator 964, causing its telescopic end to drive the slide block 962 to slide laterally along the slide rail 961. This changes the lateral distance between the photoelectric sensor 963 and the slitting blade 93. During this process, the microcontroller 2 activates the laser sensor 965, which measures the lateral movement distance of the slide block 962 along the slide rail 961 using the same principle and transmits the measurement result to the microcontroller 2 as an electrical signal. Based on this result and the initial lateral distance between the photoelectric sensor 963 and the slitting blade 93, the microcontroller 2 adjusts the travel of the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic actuator 964, thereby adjusting the cutting length of the columnar clay. This device is easy to use and can adjust the cutting length of the clay according to usage requirements.
[0033] The working principle of the automated clay processing line for porcelain production provided by this invention is as follows: When processing the clay for porcelain production using the device, the clay raw material is conveyed into the clay mixing shell 1 through the feed pipe 4. Then, the microcontroller 2 activates the electro-hydraulic push rod 353, causing its extension end to drive the clay mixing head 33 to move vertically back and forth through the cylinder 34. The clay mixing head 33 moves vertically downward to perform clay mixing operations on the clay in the clay mixing shell 1. In the initial position, the clay mixing head 33 is limited by the sliding limit of the guide bar 325 and the uppermost end of the corresponding guide groove 324, so that the rings 321, 322, and 323 are initially at the same height. As the clay mixing head 33 drives the ring 323 to move vertically downward, the guide bar 325 and the uppermost end of the corresponding guide groove 324 slide to limit the movement of the clay mixing head 33. The sliding connection between 324 allows rings 322 and 323 to move vertically downwards. Through rings 321, 322, and 323, the gap between the clay head 33 and the annular shell 31 is sealed during the downward movement of the clay head 33, preventing clay from moving above the clay head 33 through this gap. Rubber sealing ring 326 utilizes the compressive elastic deformation of rubber molecules to seal the sliding gap between the rings, preventing clay from entering. During the vertical downward movement of the clay head 33 driven by cylinder 34, the guide post 367 within the sliding ring 366 adaptively slides along guide groove 368. The lower middle part of guide groove 368 is spiral-shaped, while the remaining part is vertical. When guide post 367 slides to... When the guide post 367 moves horizontally through the spiral groove of guide groove 368, it guides the slip ring 366 to rotate horizontally once. The slip ring 366, through connecting rod 365, drives the two V-shaped plates 361 to rotate synchronously. V-shaped plates 361, through the sliding connection between their own V-shaped groove 361 and V-shaped plate 362, and the sliding connection between V-shaped groove 2 of V-shaped plate 362 and V-shaped plate 363, simultaneously rotate horizontally around the center of the mud shell 1. V-shaped plate 363 drives rotating ring 364 to rotate synchronously, thus limiting the position of V-shaped plate 363. During the horizontal rotation of the center of the clay shell 1, the portions of V-shaped plates 361, 362, and 363 furthest from the center of the clay shell 1 all scrape against the inner wall of the clay shell 1. (Both V-shaped plates 361 and 362 are equipped with rubber sealing strips to seal the vertical sliding gaps between adjacent V-shaped plates, preventing clay from entering. Both V-shaped plates 361 and 362 have guide grooves 3 inside, and both V-shaped plates 362 and 363 have guide strips 3 on their outer inclined surfaces. These guide strips 3 slide vertically with adjacent guide grooves 3, limiting their movement and preventing relative separation between vertically adjacent V-shaped plates.)The specific principle is as follows (the positional relationship between guide groove 324 and the corresponding guide strip 325). Through the squeezing force generated during the horizontal rotation of the inclined surfaces of V-shaped plates 361, 362, and 363 around the center of the clay shell 1, the clay at the edge of the clay shell 1 is automatically moved towards the center, improving the mixing effect of the subsequent clay mixing head 33. During the vertical movement of the clay mixing head 33, the microcontroller 2 activates the laser sensor 352. The laser sensor 352 emits a light signal that illuminates the top wall of the fixed base and reflects back to the initial position. Based on the propagation time and speed of the light signal, the vertical movement distance of the clay mixing head 33 is measured, and the measurement result is transmitted to the microcontroller 2 as an electrical signal. The microcontroller 2 then... Based on the measurement results, the extension and retraction strokes of the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic actuator 353 are adjusted. After the clay preparation for porcelain production is completed, the microcontroller 2 controls the electro-hydraulic actuator 353 to return to its initial state. Subsequently, the microcontroller 2 activates the electro-hydraulic actuator 373, causing its telescopic end to drive the circular plate seat 351 to move vertically downward (the upper end of the guide rod 372 slides adaptively with the circular hole 1 as the circular plate seat 351 moves downward, and through the sliding connection between the two, the radial pressure applied by the circular plate seat 351 to the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic actuator 373 is borne, avoiding damage to the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic actuator 373 due to excessive radial pressure). The circular plate seat 351 drives the annular shell 31 and the indirectly connected clay mixing head 33 to move vertically downward synchronously. The annular shell 31 moves along... The inner wall of the clay mixing shell 1 moves vertically downwards and engages with the clay mixing head 33, thereby squeezing the clay inside the clay mixing shell 1 from top to bottom. During this process, the microcontroller 2 activates the laser sensor 374, which emits a light signal that illuminates the top wall of the front fixed base 371 and reflects back to the initial position. Using the same principle, the downward movement distance of the annular shell 31 is measured, and the measurement result is transmitted to the microcontroller 2 as an electrical signal. The microcontroller 2 adjusts the extension stroke of the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic push rod 373 based on the measurement value, so that the annular shell 31 and the clay mixing head 33 move downwards until they contact the bottom wall of the clay mixing shell 1 and stop. As the annular shell 31 moves vertically downwards, it drives the two V-shaped plates 361. Simultaneously moving vertically downwards, during this process, V-shaped plate 363 adaptively penetrates into the corresponding V-shaped plate 362, and V-shaped plate 362 adaptively penetrates into the corresponding V-shaped plate 361, thus allowing the V-shaped plates to overlap and be stored vertically as a whole, thereby avoiding interference with the downward movement of the annular shell 31 and the clay mixing head 33. As the clay is discharged from the clay mixing shell 1, the microcontroller 2 opens the solenoid valve 7 and starts the screw conveyor 6, allowing the mixed clay to enter the bottom of the screw conveyor 6 through the discharge pipe 5. As the screw inside the screw conveyor 6 rotates and transports the clay, the mixed clay is discharged in a columnar shape from the discharge port of the screw conveyor 6 (the discharge port of the screw conveyor 6 has a conical outlet, which narrows the discharge diameter, thus causing the clay to move out in a columnar shape).The removed columnar clay moves from left to right along the rollers of the roller conveyor 8. During this process, the microcontroller 2 activates the photoelectric sensor 963. The front photoelectric sensor 963 emits a light signal, which is received by the receiving unit of the rear photoelectric sensor 963. Subsequently, the photoelectric sensor 963 transmits the received result to the microcontroller 2 in the form of an electrical signal. When the rightmost end of the columnar clay passes the photoelectric sensor 963, the uploaded result of the photoelectric sensor 963 changes. At this time, the microcontroller 2 shuts down the screw conveyor 6 and activates the electro-hydraulic actuator 92. The telescopic end of the slitting blade 93 moves vertically downwards, cutting the left end of the columnar clay. During this process, the microcontroller 2 activates the laser sensor 94. The laser sensor 94 detects the downward movement distance of the slitting blade 93 using the same principle and transmits the detection result to the microcontroller 2 as an electrical signal. Based on this result, the microcontroller 2 adjusts the travel of the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic actuator 92 to prevent the slitting blade 93 from cutting onto the roller conveyor 8. During the vertical movement of the slitting blade 93, the guide rod 95 slides adaptively along the corresponding circular hole 2. The vertical stability of the sliding blade 93 is improved through the sliding connection between the two. After the clay column on the upper left side of the roller conveyor 8 is cut into segments, the microcontroller 2 starts the roller conveyor 8, which transports the cut-off columnar clay from left to right through the rotation of the roller. At the same time, the microcontroller 2 starts the screw conveyor 6 again to continue cutting the columnar clay into segments using the same principle. During the segmentation of the columnar clay, the microcontroller 2 activates the electro-hydraulic push rod 964, causing its extension end to drive the slide block 962 to slide laterally along the slide rail 961, thereby activating the photoelectric sensor 9. The lateral distance between the slitting blade 93 and the cutting blade 93 changes. During this process, the microcontroller 2 activates the laser sensor 965. The laser sensor 965 measures the lateral movement distance of the slide block 962 along the slide rail 961 using the same principle and transmits the measurement result to the microcontroller 2 as an electrical signal. Based on this result and combined with the initial lateral distance between the photoelectric sensor 963 and the cutting blade 93, the microcontroller 2 adjusts the travel of the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic push rod 964, thereby realizing the adjustment of the cutting length of the columnar clay. It is convenient to use.
