Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material dispersing technology, and in particular to a material dispersing device. Background Technology

[0002] With the popularization and development of electric vehicles, the demand for power batteries is constantly increasing. Lithium iron phosphate cathode materials are mainly prepared using a high-temperature solid-state method, and the production process is roughly as follows: raw material preparation, weighing and dosing, batching, mixing, drying, sintering, crushing and grading, batching, iron removal, and packaging. The sintered lithium iron phosphate cathode material is prone to caking, requiring dispersing. Existing dispersing equipment (such as the anti-caking storage device for waste lithium battery recycling disclosed in application number 202222388862.9) often results in larger clumps being broken into smaller clumps or loose material. These smaller clumps tend to fall directly to the bottom of the chamber, preventing further dispersal. This leads to many small clumps remaining in the dispersed material, requiring secondary or multiple dispersals, significantly reducing dispersing efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and propose a material dispersing device to solve the technical problem that when the dispersing device disperses the material in the prior art, there are still many small clumps in the dispersed material, which require secondary or multiple dispersing.

[0004] To achieve the above technical objectives, the present invention provides a material dispersing device, comprising: A shell having a cavity; A dispersing mechanism includes a main shaft and multiple dispersing paddles. The main shaft is horizontally rotatably disposed in the cavity. Each of the dispersing paddles is spaced apart along the length of the main shaft and is connected to the main shaft. Two rows of bearing bases are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the main shaft to support the slab material. In each row of bearing bases, a material drop zone is formed between adjacent bearing bases. Each material drop zone is used for each of the dispersing paddles to pass through one by one. A drive mechanism, which is connected to the main shaft, is used to drive the main shaft to rotate about its own axis.

[0005] Furthermore, the top of the housing has a feed inlet communicating with the cavity, and the bottom of the housing has a discharge outlet communicating with the cavity.

[0006] Furthermore, the housing includes a lower shell, an upper shell, and a cover plate. The top of the lower shell is open, and the discharge port is provided on one side wall of the lower shell. The bottom and top of the upper shell are both open. The bottom of the upper shell is detachably connected to the top of the lower shell to enclose the cavity. The opening at the top of the upper shell forms the feed port. One side of the cover plate is hinged to the upper shell. The cover plate is used to cover the opening at the top of the upper shell so that the opening at the top of the upper shell is in an open or closed state. The supporting base is disposed inside the lower shell.

[0007] Furthermore, the dispersing propeller includes multiple fan-ring structure bushings and multiple blades. The multiple bushings form a column ring structure to be detachably fitted onto the main shaft, and each bushing is connected to at least one blade.

[0008] Furthermore, the bearing base includes a main bearing plate and two auxiliary bearing plates. The main bearing plate is fixedly connected to the shell, and the two auxiliary bearing plates are disposed opposite to each other on both sides of the main bearing plate and are detachably connected to the main bearing plate. The auxiliary bearing plates include various specifications, and the thickness of each specification of the auxiliary bearing plate is different.

[0009] Furthermore, the main support plate has multiple slots on its two side walls, each slot extending vertically and having an open top. The auxiliary support plate includes a plate body and multiple rails, each rail being fixedly connected to one side wall of the plate body, and each rail being slidably engaged in the slot.

[0010] Furthermore, the bearing base also includes a sealing plate, which is placed on the main bearing plate and the two auxiliary bearing plates and is detachably connected to the main bearing plate to limit the movement of each of the rails. The sealing plate includes various specifications, and the width of the sealing plate of each specification is different.

[0011] Furthermore, the material dispersing device also includes a filtration mechanism, which is disposed in the cavity and located below the dispersing mechanism and the supporting base, to filter the dispersed material.

[0012] Furthermore, the filtering mechanism is a filter screen.

[0013] Furthermore, the housing is provided with a closable mounting port in the middle that communicates with the cavity, and the mounting port corresponds to the filter mechanism.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this invention include: During use, the agglomerated material is placed in the cavity and placed on the support base. By controlling the drive mechanism, the main shaft rotates around its own axis, causing each dispersing paddle to rotate synchronously. During rotation, each dispersing paddle passes through its corresponding material drop zone, thus dispersing the agglomerated material on the support base. When larger clumps are broken into smaller clumps, if the size of the smaller clump is smaller than the distance between the dispersing paddle and the corresponding support base, the smaller clump will fall to the bottom of the cavity. If the size of the smaller clump is larger than the distance between the dispersing paddle and the corresponding support base, the smaller clump will remain on the support base, and the dispersing paddle will continue to disperse the clump. This material dispersing equipment ensures that smaller clumps can be further dispersed when dispersing agglomerated material, avoiding the problem of many small clumps remaining in the dispersed material. This avoids the need for secondary or multiple dispersing of the material, improving the dispersing effect and efficiency. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0017] This utility model provides a material dispersing device, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, the device includes a housing 100, a dispersing mechanism 200, two rows of bearing bases 300, and a driving mechanism 400. The housing 100 has a cavity 110. The dispersing mechanism 200 includes a main shaft 210 and multiple dispersing paddles 220. The main shaft 210 is horizontally rotatably disposed within the cavity 110. Each of the dispersing paddles 220 is spaced apart along the length of the main shaft 210 and connected to the main shaft 210. The two rows of bearing bases 300 are disposed opposite to each other on both sides of the main shaft 210 to support the agglomerated material. In each row of bearing bases 300, a material drop zone is formed between adjacent bearing bases 300, and each material drop zone is used for each dispersing paddle 220 to pass through in a corresponding manner. The driving mechanism 400 is connected to the main shaft 210 and is used to drive the main shaft 210 to rotate around its own axis.

[0018] In use, the clumped material is placed in the cavity 110 and placed on the support base 300. By operating the drive mechanism 400, the drive mechanism 400 can drive the main shaft 210 to rotate around its own axis, and drive each of the dispersing paddles 220 to rotate synchronously. During the rotation of each of the dispersing paddles 220, they will pass through each of the material dropping intervals one by one, thereby dispersing the clumped material on the support base 300. When larger clumps are broken into smaller clumps, if the size of the smaller clumps is smaller than the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding support base 300, the material will be dispersed. If the spacing between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding bearing base 300 is larger than the spacing between the dispersing paddle 220 and the bearing base 300, the smaller clumps will remain on the bearing base 300, and the dispersing paddle 220 will continue to disperse the clumps. This material dispersing device can ensure that smaller clumps can be dispersed again when dispersing agglomerated materials, avoiding the problem that many small clumps still exist in the dispersed materials, thereby avoiding the problem of dispersing materials a second or multiple times, and improving the dispersing effect and efficiency of materials.

[0019] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The top of the housing 100 is provided with a feed inlet 120 communicating with the cavity 110, and the bottom of the housing 100 is provided with a discharge outlet 130 communicating with the cavity 110. Material can be fed into the cavity 110 through the feed inlet 120, and the dispersed material can be discharged through the discharge outlet 130.

[0020] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The housing 100 includes a lower housing 140, an upper housing 150, and a cover plate 160. The top of the lower housing 140 is open, and a discharge port 130 is provided on one side wall of the lower housing 140. The bottom and top of the upper housing 150 are both open. The bottom of the upper housing 150 is detachably connected to the top of the lower housing 140 to enclose the cavity 110. The opening at the top of the upper housing 150 forms the feed port 120. One side of the cover plate 160 is hinged to the upper housing 150. The cover plate 160 is used to cover the opening at the top of the upper housing 150 so that the opening at the top of the upper housing 150 is in an open or closed state. The support base 300 is disposed inside the lower housing 140 to facilitate the installation of the support base 300.

[0021] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The bottom of the lower shell 140 is an inclined surface, and the discharge port 130 is connected to the bottom end of the inclined surface. The broken material falls to the bottom of the lower shell 140. Since the bottom of the lower shell 140 is the inclined surface, the material can slide down the inclined surface to the discharge port 130 and be discharged from the discharge port 130, thus realizing material discharge.

[0022] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 The dispersing propeller 220 includes multiple fan-ring structure bushings 221 and multiple blades 222. The multiple bushings 221 form a column ring structure and are detachably fitted onto the main shaft 210. Each bushing 221 is connected to at least one blade 222. Since the blades 222 are consumable parts, they are easily worn during use. When the blades 222 are worn, they need to be replaced. At this time, the corresponding bushing 221 can be removed from the main shaft 210 to replace the worn blades 222. This avoids the problem that the entire dispersing propeller 220 needs to be replaced after one blade 222 of the dispersing propeller 220 is worn.

[0023] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 4The main shaft 210 has multiple first screw holes, and the bushing 221 has a second screw hole. The bushing 221 is detachably connected to the main shaft 210 via countersunk screws, and the bushing 221 is easy to assemble and disassemble.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 The top of the bearing base 300 is a slope, and the height of the slope gradually increases from near to far along the radial direction of the main shaft 210, which facilitates the dropping of bulk materials and prevents the bulk materials from accumulating on the bearing base 300.

[0025] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The supporting base 300 includes a main supporting plate 310 and two auxiliary supporting plates 320. The main supporting plate 310 is fixedly connected to the housing 100. The two auxiliary supporting plates 320 are disposed opposite to each other on both sides of the main supporting plate 310 and are detachably connected to the main supporting plate 310. The auxiliary supporting plates 320 include various specifications, each with a different thickness. When it is necessary to change the dispersion of the dispersed material, only the corresponding specification of the auxiliary supporting plate 320 needs to be replaced. After replacing the auxiliary support plate 320 with one of the corresponding specifications, the width of the material drop zone will change. When the size of the agglomerate is smaller than the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding support base 300, the agglomerate will fall to the bottom of the cavity 110. If the size of the agglomerate is larger than the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding support base 300, the agglomerate will remain on the support base 300. Therefore, by replacing the auxiliary support plate 320 with one of different specifications, the dispersion of the dispersed material can be changed.

[0026] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 The main support plate 310 has multiple slots 311 on its two side walls, each slot 311 extending vertically and having an open top. The auxiliary support plate 320 includes a plate body 321 and multiple rails 322. Each rail 322 is fixedly connected to one side wall of the plate body 321, and each rail 322 is slidably engaged in the slots 311 to achieve a detachable connection between the plate body 321 and the main support plate 310, facilitating the replacement of plates 321 of different thicknesses.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 6The opening width of the slot 311 gradually decreases from the inside to the outside. The rail 322 is adapted to the slot 311, so that after the rail 322 and the slot 311 are engaged, a limit can be formed to prevent the plate 321 from being pulled out from the outside. That is, when disassembling the plate 321, the plate 321 is moved upward until the rail 322 is separated from the slot 311. When installing the plate 321, the plate 321 is moved downward until the rail 322 enters the slot 311 and reaches the preset position.

[0028] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 The supporting base 300 also includes a sealing plate 330, which is placed on the main supporting plate 310 and the two auxiliary supporting plates 320 and is detachably connected to the main supporting plate 310 to limit the positioning of each of the rails 322. The sealing plate 330 includes various specifications, and the width of the sealing plate 330 of each specification is different. When the auxiliary supporting plate 320 of different specifications is replaced, the sealing plate 330 of the matching specification needs to be replaced so that the width of the sealing plate 330 is the same as the thickness of the main supporting plate 310 and the two auxiliary supporting plates 320 combined.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The main support plate 310 has multiple third screw holes, and the sealing plate 330 has multiple fourth screw holes. The sealing plate 330 is detachably connected to the main support plate 310 via countersunk screws, and the sealing plate 330 is easy to assemble and disassemble.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the drive mechanism 400 can be directly connected to one end of the main shaft 210 using a suitable type of motor, or indirectly connected to one end of the main shaft 210 using a gear set or reducer.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The material dispersing device further includes a filtering mechanism 500, which is disposed in the cavity 110 and located below the dispersing mechanism 200 and the supporting base 300 to filter the dispersed material. When larger lumps are broken into smaller lumps, if the size of the smaller lumps is smaller than the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding supporting base 300, the smaller lumps will fall onto the filtering mechanism 500. After being filtered by the filtering mechanism 500, the loose material will be discharged, which can further improve the dispersing effect of the material and prevent lumps from being mixed into the loose material.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3The filtration mechanism 500 is a filter screen that can filter materials.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The housing 100 also has a closable mounting port 170 in the middle that communicates with the cavity 110. The mounting port 170 corresponds to the filter mechanism 500 so that the filter mechanism 500 can be installed and removed through the mounting port 170.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The lower housing 100 has an installation port 170. The housing 100 also includes an installation ring 180 and a blocking plate 190. The installation ring 180 is disposed inside the lower housing 100 and is fixedly connected to the lower housing 100. The filter screen is placed on the installation ring 180. The blocking plate 330 blocks the installation port 170 and is detachably connected to the lower housing 140. The filter screen can be placed into the cavity 110 along the installation port 170 and placed on the installation ring 180 to realize the installation of the filter screen, which is convenient for installation and disassembly.

[0035] To better understand this utility model, the following is combined with... Figure 1 - Figure 6 The working principle of the technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below: In use, the clumped material is placed in the cavity 110 and placed on the support base 300. By operating the drive mechanism 400, the drive mechanism 400 can drive the main shaft 210 to rotate around its own axis, and drive each of the dispersing paddles 220 to rotate synchronously. During the rotation of each of the dispersing paddles 220, they will pass through each of the material dropping zones one by one, thereby dispersing the clumped material on the support base 300. When larger clumps are broken into smaller clumps, if the smaller clumps... If the size of the agglomerate is smaller than the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding support base 300, the smaller agglomerate will fall onto the filter screen. If the size of the smaller agglomerate is larger than the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding support base 300, the smaller agglomerate will remain on the support base 300, and the dispersing paddle 220 will continue to disperse the agglomerate. After being filtered by the filter screen, the loose material falls to the bottom of the cavity 110. Since the bottom of the cavity 110 is the... The inclined surface allows material to slide down to the discharge port 130 and be discharged from there, achieving material discharge. When the dispersion of the dispersed material needs to be changed, simply replace the auxiliary support plate 320 with one of the corresponding specifications. After replacing the auxiliary support plate 320, the width of the material drop zone will change. If the size of the agglomerate is smaller than the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding support base 300, the agglomerate will fall to the bottom of the cavity 110. If the size of the agglomerate is larger than the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding support base 300, the agglomerate will fall to the bottom of the cavity 110. When the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding bearing base 300 is adjusted, the agglomerates will remain on the bearing base 300. Therefore, by replacing the auxiliary bearing plate 320 with one of different specifications, the dispersion of the material can be changed. When this material dispersing equipment disperses agglomerated materials, it can ensure that smaller agglomerates can be dispersed again, avoiding the problem that many small agglomerates still exist in the dispersed material. This avoids the problem of dispersing the material a second or multiple times, and improves the dispersing effect and efficiency of the material.

[0036] The material dispersing device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: (1) Since the blade 222 is a wear part, it is easily worn during use. When the blade 222 is worn, it needs to be replaced. At this time, the corresponding bushing 221 can be removed from the main shaft 210 to replace the worn blade 222. This avoids the problem that the entire dispersing paddle 220 needs to be replaced after one blade 222 of the dispersing paddle 220 is worn. (2) When it is necessary to change the dispersion of the material being dispersed, it is only necessary to replace the auxiliary support plate 320 of the corresponding specification. After replacing the auxiliary support plate 320 of the corresponding specification, the width of the material drop zone will change. Since the size of the agglomerate is smaller than the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding support base 300, the agglomerate will fall to the bottom of the cavity 110. If the size of the agglomerate is larger than the distance between the dispersing paddle 220 and the corresponding support base 300, the agglomerate will remain on the support base 300. Therefore, by replacing the auxiliary support plate 320 of different specifications, the dispersion of the material being dispersed can be changed. (3) When this material dispersing equipment disperses clumped materials, it can ensure that smaller clumps can be dispersed again, avoiding the problem that there are still many small clumps in the dispersed material, thus avoiding the problem of dispersing the material a second or multiple times, and improving the dispersing effect and efficiency of the material.

Any other corresponding changes and modifications made based on the technical concept of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
