Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of clay refining machine technology, and in particular to a clay refining machine for ceramic processing. Background Technology
[0002] A clay mixing machine is an important piece of equipment in the ceramic production process. It is mainly used to process and manufacture ceramic clay. Its main function is to mix, knead, and homogenize the clay, water, and other components in the raw materials to make the clay texture more delicate and uniform, so as to facilitate the subsequent shaping and firing processes.
[0003] Application No. 202220121287.3 specifically describes a clay mixing machine for ceramic processing, including a bottom support leg, a support frame, a holding mechanism, and a stirring mechanism. The bottom support leg is located below the support frame, and the holding mechanism is located inside the support frame. The stirring mechanism is located inside the holding mechanism. The stirring mechanism includes a first stirring shaft, a first gearbox, a first drive motor, a second stirring shaft, a second gearbox, and a second drive motor. The second stirring shaft is located inside the holding mechanism, and the second gearbox is located at one end of the second stirring shaft. The second drive motor is located outside the second gearbox. Two first stirring shafts are located above the second stirring shaft. The first drive motor drives the first stirring shaft to rotate, and the second drive motor drives the second stirring shaft to rotate, thereby fully pounding and mixing the clay blanks to make the clay blanks more uniform and improve work efficiency.
[0004] The above-mentioned solution has shortcomings in its use. It lacks the pounding of the clay blank, and air bubbles and gases in the clay may not be effectively removed. This will lead to uneven internal structure of the clay blank, producing pores and air bubbles, which will affect the strength of the ceramic. To address these issues, we propose a clay mixing machine for ceramic processing. Utility Model Content

[0020] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0021] 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.
[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 In this utility model, a clay kneading machine for ceramic processing includes a mixing box 1. A feeding frame 4 is connected to the left side of the mixing box 1, and a discharge door is provided at the bottom of the mixing box 1. The feeding frame 4 allows workers to easily add raw materials, and workers can conveniently discharge the kneaded clay from the discharge door.
[0023] A motor 8 is installed on the right side of the mixing tank 1. A rotating rod 10 is installed at the output end of the motor 8. A ring-shaped mixing plate 9 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the rotating rod 10. The operation of the motor 8 can drive the rotating rod 10 to rotate, and the mixing plate 9 will then mix the mud.
[0024] An L-shaped plate 7 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the motor 8. The left side of the bottom end of the L-shaped plate 7 is connected to the right side of the mixing box 1. The L-shaped plate 7 can be used to fix the motor 8, thereby ensuring stability when mixing mud.
[0025] The upper surface of the mixing tank 1 has two sets of equally spaced through slots 16. A dual-head motor 15 is installed on the upper surface of the mixing tank 1. The two output ends of the dual-head motor 15 are fixedly connected to rotating shafts 17. Each rotating shaft 17 has a support block 14 rotatably connected to its outer surface. The bottom end of each support block 14 is connected to the upper surface of the mixing tank 1. When the dual-head motor 15 is working, it will drive the two rotating shafts 17 to rotate in the same direction. At the same time, the support block 14 will support and reinforce the other end of the rotating shaft 17.
[0026] Two rotating shafts 17 are fixedly connected to turntables 13 at their far ends. Each turntable 13 is rotatably connected to a push-pull plate 12 at its edge. The tops of the two push-pull plates 12 are hinged to a fixed frame 3. The bottom surface of the fixed frame 3 is fixedly connected to two sets of equidistant vertical plates 2. The bottom end of each vertical plate 2 is connected to a through groove 16 and a striking hammer 11. When the rotating shafts 17 rotate, they will drive the turntables 13 to rotate. The turntables 13 will then pull the push-pull plates 12 to move up and down. The fixed frame 3 will then drive the vertical plates 2 and the striking hammer 11 to move up and down. The striking hammer 11 can then strike the mud during mixing, which can expel air bubbles from the mud and ensure its strength for ceramic production. At the same time, the speed of the dual-head motor 15 is adjusted during operation. When the striking hammer 11 descends to strike the mud, it is positioned on both sides of the mixing plate 9, which can prevent the striking hammer 11 from colliding with the mixing plate 9.
[0027] An observation frame 5 is provided on the front of the mixing tank 1. Through the observation frame 5, the staff can observe the state of the soil preparation and discharge the prepared soil in a timely manner.
[0028] A set of supports 6 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the mixing tank 1. Each support 6 is a steel structure. The supports 6 can stably support the mixing tank 1, ensuring the stability of the mixing tank 1 during soil preparation.
[0029] The working principle of this application is as follows: When in use, the starting motor 8 drives the rotating rod 10 to rotate, thereby driving the mixing plate 9 to continuously stir the soil, ensuring that the various components in the soil are fully mixed and evenly distributed. At the same time, the starting of the dual-head motor 15 is controlled, and the rotating shaft 17 drives the turntable 13 to rotate. As the turntable 13 rotates, the push-pull plate 12 begins to reciprocate and rise. At the same time, the fixed frame 3 can reciprocate and rise and fall the upright plate 2. Under the drive of the rotating shaft 17 and the turntable 13, the hammer 11 will synchronously pound the soil being stirred at regular intervals. This action can effectively remove air bubbles in the soil, reduce the impact of air bubbles on the clay blank, and ensure that the internal structure of the clay blank is more compact and uniform when making ceramics.
[0030] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
