Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of eco-stone technology, and in particular to an eco-stone wet-laying system. Background Technology

[0002] Eco-stone has a surface that mimics the effect of natural stone, and its patterns can be varied. With the continuous development of society and the economy, people's requirements for quality of life and living environment are also constantly increasing. Therefore, decorative materials that imitate natural stone, are simple and natural, and are very popular.

[0003] In existing technologies, the preparation of eco-stones typically involves simple mixing and casting of a single color or two to three colors of slurry to form decorative textures. However, due to the simple casting equipment, short process flow, and difficulty in slurry control, the mixing effect of the slurry is affected. The degree of fusion and mixing of the slurry is poor, the layering effect is often not obvious, the process effect is simple and rigid, and the unstable casting results in the eco-stones having insufficient clarity and realism in their patterns and textures, repetitive and monotonous patterns, rigid lines, limited color variety, and lack of color transitions.

[0004] To address the shortcomings of the casting process in the preparation of eco-stone, some eco-stone manufacturers have begun to change their preparation methods. They use a mixing device to combine a base slurry with the natural stone color tone and a decorative color slurry, then use a flow divider to agitate the slurry and create a natural-looking texture. However, because eco-stone produced using this process or equipment primarily relies on the flow divider to create the texture, and the flow divider's agitation trajectory is relatively simple and limited, the resulting natural-looking effect is often monotonous and stiff, leading to unnatural textures and patterns. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, the present invention aims to propose an eco-friendly wet-process fabrication system for stone. This system enables the quantitative fabrication of multiple colors according to a programmed control, resulting in rich textures, natural transitions, controllable and aesthetically pleasing patterns through multiple flow variations.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: An eco-friendly wet-process material distribution system includes a discharge device, a primary diversion device, a receiving belt, a secondary diversion device, a casting belt, a tertiary diversion device, a material distribution device, and a mold conveyor belt. Multiple discharge devices are arranged side by side above the receiving belt. The first-stage diversion device is located in the drop gap between the discharge device and the receiving belt. The second-stage diversion device is located in the drop gap between the receiving belt and the casting belt. The third-stage diversion device is located in the drop gap between the casting belt and the material distribution device. The mold conveyor belt is located below the material distribution device. One discharge device outputs a color paste, and multiple discharge devices output multiple color pastes. The color pastes output by the multiple discharge devices are fed into the receiving belt after passing through the first-stage diversion device to form a color combination paste. The color combination paste on the receiving belt is fed into the casting belt through the second-stage diversion device. The color combination paste is cast and mixed on the casting belt. The cast color combination paste is then fed into the cloth-laying device through the third-stage diversion device. The cloth-laying device lays the color combination paste onto the mold that moves on the mold conveyor belt.

[0007] Furthermore, the primary diversion device, the secondary diversion device, and the tertiary diversion device all include multiple flow guides, and a diversion hole is formed between two adjacent flow guides.

[0008] Furthermore, the guide element is a rod, an oblique blade, or a spiral blade; The primary diversion device, the secondary diversion device, and the tertiary diversion device all include an outer frame, and multiple flow guides are fixed side by side at the bottom of the outer frame.

[0009] Furthermore, the casting belt is inclined, the angle between the conveying surface of the casting belt and the horizontal plane is 30° to 45°, and the lower end of the conveying surface of the casting belt is located above the three-stage diversion device.

[0010] Furthermore, the fabric spreading device is located below the three-stage diversion device, and the fabric spreading device can move horizontally along the conveying direction perpendicular to the casting belt.

[0011] Furthermore, the fabric feeding device includes a fabric hopper, a guide rail, and a drive assembly, wherein the fabric hopper is slidably engaged with the guide rail via a pulley system; The drive assembly includes a drive motor, a connecting rod, and a rotating component, with the rotating component sleeved on the output end of the drive motor. One end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the rotating component, and the other end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the fabric hopper; The drive motor drives the rotating component to rotate, and the connecting rod drives the fabric hopper to reciprocate along the guide track.

[0012] Furthermore, the discharge device includes a hopper, a discharge baffle assembly, and a discharge belt; The hopper is located above the discharge belt, the discharge baffle assembly is located at the bottom of the hopper, and the bottom opening of the hopper, the discharge baffle assembly and the discharge belt form a discharge port; The discharge baffle assembly is provided with a height adjustment component, which is used to adjust the height of the discharge baffle assembly to adjust the opening of the discharge port.

[0013] Furthermore, the height adjustment assembly includes an adjustment base and an adjustment rod; The adjusting and fixing seat is fixedly installed above the discharge belt, and the hopper is fixedly connected to the adjusting and fixing seat; One end of the adjusting rod is fixedly connected to the discharge baffle assembly, and the other end of the adjusting rod passes through the adjusting fixing seat. The adjusting rod moves up and down relative to the adjusting fixing seat.

[0014] Furthermore, baffles are provided on both sides of the discharge belt, the receiving belt, and the casting belt; The height of the baffle is higher than the conveying surface of the discharge belt, the receiving belt, or the casting belt, so that the color paste moves between the two baffles; The discharge belt, the receiving belt, the casting belt, and the mold conveyor belt are all connected by a motor drive. The motor is equipped with a speed regulating device, which is used to adjust the driving speed of the motor on the discharge belt, the receiving belt, the casting belt, or the mold conveyor belt.

[0015] The technical solution provided by this invention may include the following beneficial effects: In this invention, multiple discharge devices are used to discharge different colored slurries at different speeds, quantities, or times, allowing them to flow onto a receiving belt and create different line textures on the conveyor surface. A primary diversion device allows the colored slurries from different devices to form textured slurries with different stripes on the conveyor surface. The diversion device further disperses the stripes of the textured slurry on the conveyor surface, resulting in a richer final texture. In this embodiment, the formation process of the textured slurry is coordinated with the discharge process of the discharge devices. The three diversion devices and the casting belt increase the richness of the textured slurry, resulting in a natural and aesthetically pleasing textured pattern on the final eco-stone.

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 invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0021] The following is combined Figures 1 to 6 This invention describes an eco-friendly wet-process material distribution system for stone, comprising a discharge device 1, a primary diversion device 3, a receiving belt 4, a secondary diversion device 9, a casting belt 6, a tertiary diversion device 7, a material distribution device 2, and a mold conveyor belt 5. Multiple discharge devices 1 are arranged side-by-side above the receiving belt 4. The primary diversion device 3 is located in the drop zone between the discharge device 1 and the receiving belt 4. The secondary diversion device 9 is located in the drop zone between the receiving belt 4 and the casting belt 6. The tertiary diversion device 7 is located in the drop zone between the casting belt 6 and the material distribution device 2. The mold conveyor belt 5 is located below the material distribution device 2. One discharge device 1 outputs a color paste, and multiple discharge devices 1 output multiple color pastes. The color pastes output by the multiple discharge devices 1 are fed to the receiving belt 4 after passing through the first-stage diversion device 3 to form a color combination paste. The color combination paste on the receiving belt 4 is fed to the casting belt 6 through the second-stage diversion device 9. The color combination paste is cast and mixed on the casting belt 6. The cast color combination paste is then fed to the cloth spreading device 2 through the third-stage diversion device 7. The cloth spreading device 2 spreads the color combination paste onto the mold 51 that moves on the mold conveyor belt 5.

[0022] In this invention, multiple discharge devices 1 are installed side by side above the receiving belt 4. Different colored slurries are discharged from different discharge devices 1 through a primary diversion device 3 and then fed to the receiving belt 4. The primary diversion device 3 is designed so that the colored slurry flowing from the discharge device 1 to the receiving belt 4 can be spread through the primary diversion device 3 and form a textured slurry with multiple textures on the conveying surface of the receiving belt 4. In addition, a secondary diversion device 9 is located below the discharge end of the receiving belt 4, and a mold conveyor belt 5 is located below the discharge end of the secondary diversion device 9. Before the textured slurry falls from the receiving belt 4 to the mold 51 on the mold conveyor belt 5, the secondary diversion device 9 disperses and refines the texture of the textured slurry and finally gradually applies it to the mold 51, which is then conveyed to the next process by the mold conveyor belt 5.

[0023] In this invention, multiple discharge devices 1 are used for feeding, allowing different colored slurries to be fed from the discharge devices 1 at different speeds, amounts, or times, and then flow onto the receiving belt 4, thereby creating different line texture effects on the conveying surface of the receiving belt 4. The primary diversion device 3 allows the colored slurries flowing from different primary diversion devices 3 to form textured slurries with different stripes on the conveying surface of the receiving belt 4. The secondary diversion device 9 disperses the stripes of the textured slurry formed on the conveying surface of the receiving belt 4, making the final texture richer. In this embodiment, the formation process of the textured slurry is coordinated with the feeding process of the discharge devices 1. The primary diversion device 3 and the secondary diversion device 9 increase the richness of the textured slurry, making the final textured pattern of the ecological stone natural and beautiful.

[0024] Furthermore, the primary diversion device 3, the secondary diversion device 9, and the tertiary diversion device 7 all include multiple guide elements 32, with diversion holes formed between two adjacent guide elements 32.

[0025] Furthermore, the guide element can be a rod, a slanted blade, or a spiral blade; The primary diversion device, the secondary diversion device, and the tertiary diversion device all include an outer frame, and multiple flow guides are fixed side by side at the bottom of the outer frame.

[0026] In one embodiment of the present invention, both the secondary diversion device 9 and the tertiary diversion device 7 are composed of multiple guide members, which are round bars. The multiple round bars of the secondary diversion device 9 are mounted on the casting belt 6, and are located below the outlet of the receiving belt 4 in the conveying direction; the multiple round bars of the secondary diversion device 9 are mounted above the fabric spreading device 2, and are located below the conveying outlet of the casting belt. The length direction of the round bars corresponds to the conveying direction of the receiving belt 4 and the casting belt 6.

[0027] Multiple round rods are mounted on the receiving belt 4, allowing the texture slurry conveyed by the receiving belt 4 or the casting belt 6 to be dispersed and diverted twice by the round rods, generating more composite colors. After dispersion, the texture forms a multi-colored texture. The multi-colored composite texture slurry is then conveyed to the spreading device 2, where it is finally spread onto the mold 51 of the mold conveyor belt 5, and then transported to the next process by the mold conveyor belt 5. In addition, the arrangement interval and number of the multiple round rods are set according to the requirements of the eco-stone texture pattern in the production process.

[0028] Understandably, in another embodiment of the present invention, the secondary diversion device 9 and the tertiary diversion device 7 may further include an outer frame, with both ends of the round rod connected to the inner wall of the outer frame. The outer frame serves to collect the conveyed color slurry and prevent slurry splashing.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the primary diversion device 3 includes an outer frame 31 and a flow guide 32 composed of inclined plates; multiple flow guides 32 are arranged side by side on the bottom side inside the outer frame 31, and a diversion cavity with a top opening is formed between the outer frame 31 and two connected flow guides 32; a diversion hole 311 is provided at the bottom of the diversion cavity, the cross section of the flow guide 32 is inverted V-shaped, and the two opposite sides of the flow guide 32 are inclined.

[0030] The color slurry flows into the diversion chamber of the primary diversion device 3. After being separated by different diversion chambers, the color slurry flows out through the diversion hole 311 to form multiple stripes.

[0031] The two sides of two adjacent flow guides 32 are inclined to guide and buffer the flow of color paste in the flow distribution cavity. In this embodiment, there are three flow distribution holes 311 and four corresponding flow guides 33 to ensure the stability of the connection between the flow guides 33 and the outer frame 31.

[0032] It is worth noting that the shape of the diversion hole 311 is determined according to the requirements of the texture in the production process. It can be square, oval, wavy, or other rectangular shapes. After flowing through the first-stage diversion device 3, the color slurry that flows to the receiving belt 4 takes the shape of a long strip that matches the shape of the diversion hole 311 as the receiving belt 4 moves.

[0033] In addition, the width of the top opening of the outer frame 31 is adapted to the width of the discharge belt 14, so that the color paste flowing out of the discharge belt 14 can flow along the baffles 8 on both sides of the discharge belt 14 to both ends inside the outer frame 31. After being guided by the two guide members 32 that are relatively inclined on both sides, it flows into the outer frame 31. After being separated and guided by the guide members 32, it flows out from the diversion hole 311 and forms multiple textures on the conveying surface of the receiving belt 4.

[0034] Specifically, a buffer gap 310 is provided between the guide component 32 and the outer frame 34 and each diversion hole 311. The buffer gap 310 provides a buffer space when the color slurry flows out of the diversion hole 311, ensuring the reasonable speed of the color slurry flowing out of the diversion hole 311, making the color slurry flow more evenly on the conveying surface of the receiving belt 4, and making the texture pattern of the final ecological stone more natural.

[0035] Furthermore, the casting belt 6 is inclined, with the angle between its conveying surface and the horizontal plane being 30° to 45°, and the lower end of its conveying surface located above the three-stage diversion device 7. This inclined casting belt allows the color mixing paste to flow and mix on it, producing more composite colors and resulting in natural and diverse product textures.

[0036] Furthermore, the fabric spreading device 2 is located below the three-stage diversion device 7, and the fabric spreading device 2 can move horizontally along the conveying direction perpendicular to the casting belt 6.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cloth-laying device 2 is moved horizontally, thereby shifting the position of the color paste. Driven by the cloth-laying device 2, the color paste falls onto the moving mold 51, forming an arc-shaped texture on the mold 51, resulting in a more natural texture pattern on the formed eco-stone. It is understood that the horizontal movement speed of the cloth-laying device 2 and the movement speed of the mold 51 affect the curvature of the arc-shaped texture.

[0038] Furthermore, the fabric feeding device 2 includes a fabric hopper 221, a guide rail 223, and a drive assembly 224. The fabric hopper 221 is slidably engaged with the guide rail 223 via a pulley system. The drive assembly 224 includes a drive motor 2241, a connecting rod 2242, and a rotating component 2243. The rotating component 2243 is sleeved on the output end of the drive motor 2241. One end of the connecting rod 2242 is rotatably connected to the rotating component 2243, and the other end of the connecting rod 2242 is rotatably connected to the fabric hopper 221. The drive motor 2241 drives the rotating component 2243 to rotate, and the connecting rod 2242 drives the fabric hopper 221 to reciprocate along the guide rail 223.

[0039] like Figure 2As shown, the fabric hopper 221 is located at one end of the guide rail 223, and the drive assembly 224 is located at the other end of the guide rail 223. The fabric hopper 221 is connected to the material feeding assembly via a connecting rod 2242. As the connecting rod 2242 moves, the fabric hopper 221 moves. Specifically, one end of the rotating component 2243 is sleeved on the output end of the drive motor 2241. The drive motor 2241 drives the rotating component 2243 to rotate around the output end of the drive motor 2241. At the same time, the other end of the rotating component 2243 is movably connected to the connecting rod 2242. At this time, the rotating component 2243 and the connecting rod 2242 are in the same vertical plane. When the rotating component 2243 rotates, it can drive the connecting rod 2242 to move along the guide rail 223 accordingly, thereby driving the fabric hopper 221, which is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 2242, to move along the length direction of the guide rail 223.

[0040] Multiple material-pushing rods 2211 are arranged side-by-side at the bottom outlet of the material hopper 221, allowing the material hopper 221 to move horizontally along the conveying direction perpendicular to the casting belt 6. Simultaneously, when the textured slurry dispersed by the three-stage dispersion device flows into the material hopper 221 under gravity, the material-pushing rods agitate the slurry as the hopper 221 moves horizontally along the conveying direction perpendicular to the casting belt 6. This allows the dispersed slurry to combine multiple colors under the action of the material-pushing rods, forming a multi-colored texture. Furthermore, the material-pushing rods 2211 alter the slurry's discharge path in the material hopper 221, causing the slurry's discharge position to shift. Consequently, when the slurry is applied to the mold 51 of the mold conveyor belt 5, it exhibits arc-shaped stripes, resulting in a more natural texture pattern on the formed eco-stone.

[0041] Specifically, the fabric hopper 221 includes two fabric hopper vertical plates 2212 and two fabric hopper side plates 2213; the two fabric hopper vertical plates 2212 are located on both sides of the mold conveyor belt 5, the width of the lower opening of the fabric hopper 221 is adapted to the width of the mold 51, and the width of the upper opening of the fabric hopper 221 is adapted to the width of the casting belt 6; the two fabric hopper side plates 2213 are connected to the two fabric hopper vertical plates 2212, and multiple material push rods 2211 are located at the lower opening of the fabric hopper 221 and are perpendicularly connected to the two fabric hopper side plates 2213.

[0042] The two cloth hopper side plates 2213 are set at relative inclinations, so that the upper opening of the cloth hopper 221 is larger than the lower opening, which has a guiding effect on the feeding process of the texture slurry. In addition, the two cloth hopper vertical plates 2212 are perpendicular to the casting belt 6, and the distance between the two cloth hopper vertical plates 2212 is adapted to the width of the mold conveyor belt 5, ensuring the uniformity of the texture slurry on the mold 51 when it is fed onto the mold conveyor belt 5, improving the production quality, and making the texture pattern of the formed ecological stone more natural.

[0043] It is worth noting that, such as Figure 3 As shown, the tops of the material guide rods 2211 are all arc-shaped, making the final arc-shaped texture lines smoother and the color transition of the texture more natural. The number of material guide rods 2211 and the gap between two adjacent material guide rods 2211 are determined according to the requirements of the eco-stone texture pattern in the production process. In addition, the length direction of the material guide rods 2211 is oriented towards the conveying direction of the casting belt 6, which can prevent the texture slurry from flowing into the cloth hopper 221 without being dispersed by the material guide rods 2211, and at the same time improve the fluidity of the texture slurry.

[0044] Furthermore, the discharge device 1 includes a hopper 11, a discharge baffle assembly 12, and a discharge belt 14; the hopper 11 is located above the discharge belt 14, and the discharge baffle assembly 12 is located between the hopper 11 and the discharge belt 14; the discharge baffle assembly 12 is provided with a height adjustment component 13, which is used to adjust the distance between the discharge baffle assembly 12 and the lower opening of the hopper 11, so that the amount of color paste flowing from the lower opening of the hopper 11 to the discharge belt 14 is adjustable.

[0045] During the feeding process, after the height adjustment component 13 adjusts the discharge baffle component 12 to a suitable position, the color paste is fed through the upper opening of the hopper 11, flows through the lower opening of the hopper 11 to the discharge baffle component 12, and then flows from the discharge baffle component 12 to the discharge belt 14. The discharge belt 14 then conveys the paste to the primary diversion device 3, where it is dispersed and forms different textures on the conveying surface of the receiving belt 4. When the feeding is completed, the height adjustment component 13 adjusts the distance between the discharge baffle component 12 and the hopper 11 to zero, so that the discharge baffle component 12 blocks the lower opening of the hopper 11, at which point the hopper 11 stops feeding.

[0046] The height adjustment component 13 in this embodiment improves the controllability of the color slurry feeding from different discharge devices 1. By adjusting the distance between the discharge baffle component 12 and the discharge belt 14, the speed at which the color slurry from different discharge devices 1 flows from the lower opening of the hopper 11 to the discharge belt 14 is adjusted. This, in turn, adjusts the speed at which the color slurry from different discharge devices 1 is conveyed from the discharge belt 14 to the primary diversion device 3. Consequently, the textures of the color slurry dispersed by the primary diversion device 3 are different. At the same time, the height adjustment component 13 can also control the feeding time of the color slurry in different discharge devices 1, further adjusting the conveying amount of color slurry flowing out of different discharge devices 1. This facilitates the adjustment of the addition ratio of different color slurries in the textured slurry formed on the receiving belt 4, achieving different texture patterns in the eco-stone, thereby improving the applicability of the fabrication system.

[0047] Specifically, the hopper 11 includes two vertical hopper plates 111 and two side hopper plates 112. The two vertical hopper plates 111 are perpendicular to both sides of the discharge belt 14, so that the width of the lower opening of the hopper 11 matches the width of the discharge belt 14. The two side hopper plates 112 connect the two vertical hopper plates 111 and are inclined relative to each other, so that the upper opening of the hopper 11 is larger than the lower opening. The inclined arrangement of the two side hopper plates 112 guides the flow of the color slurry during the feeding process. In addition, the two vertical hopper plates 111 are perpendicular to the discharge belt 14, and the distance between the two vertical hopper plates 111 matches the width of the discharge belt 14, ensuring the uniformity of the color slurry conveyed on the conveying surface of the discharge belt 14 when it is fed onto the belt, improving production quality and making the texture pattern of the final ecological stone more natural.

[0048] Furthermore, the discharge baffle assembly 12 includes a discharge baffle 121, a first baffle 122, and a second baffle 123; the first baffle 122 is located on the rear side of the discharge port and is perpendicular to the conveying surface of the discharge belt 14, and the bottom end of the first baffle 122 is in close contact with the discharge belt 14. Two second baffles 123 are located at both ends of the discharge port, perpendicular to the conveying surface of the discharge belt 14, and closely fitted with the discharge belt 14; The discharge baffle 121 is perpendicular to the discharge belt 14, and a gap is reserved between the bottom end and the discharge belt 14 to form the discharge port; The discharge baffle 121 is connected to the height adjustment component 13.

[0049] Specifically, a discharge port is formed by the discharge baffle 121, the first baffle 122 and the two second baffles 123 surrounding the bottom of the hopper 11 and the bottom opening of the hopper 11. The height of the discharge baffle 121 is adjusted by the height adjustment component 13, thereby adjusting the opening of the discharge port and thus adjusting the thickness of the color paste on the discharge belt. This allows the amount of paste flowing out of the discharge port at the same time to be adjusted, thereby affecting the texture of the color paste after it is spread by the discharge first-stage diversion device 3. Specifically, after the color paste flows out of the discharge port, it is conveyed to the discharge diversion frame by the discharge belt 14 and then spread to the conveying surface of the receiving belt 4 by the discharge first-stage diversion device 3.

[0050] Furthermore, the height adjustment assembly 13 includes an adjustment fixing seat 131 and an adjustment rod 132; the adjustment fixing seat 131 is fixedly installed above the discharge belt 14, and the hopper 11 is fixedly connected to the adjustment fixing seat 131; one end of the adjustment rod 132 is fixedly connected to the discharge baffle assembly 12, and the other end of the adjustment rod 132 passes through the adjustment fixing seat 131, and the adjustment rod 132 moves up and down relative to the adjustment fixing seat 131.

[0051] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the adjusting fixing seat 131 is a frame with openings at the top and bottom. The adjusting fixing seat 131 is sleeved on the periphery of the hopper 11 and fixedly installed above the discharge belt 14 by fixing columns. The hopper 11 and the adjusting fixing seat 131 are fixedly connected by the hopper mounting bracket 113. One end of the adjusting rod 132 passes through the adjusting fixing seat 131, and the adjusting rod 132 moves up and down relative to the adjusting fixing seat 131. By moving the adjusting rod 132 on the adjusting fixing seat 131, the distance of the end of the adjusting rod 132 passing through the adjusting fixing seat 131 is adjusted, thereby realizing the distance between the discharge baffle assembly 12, which is fixedly connected to the other end of the adjusting rod 132, and the hopper 11.

[0052] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the adjusting base 131 is provided with an adjusting hole, and the end of the adjusting rod 132 passes through the adjusting hole; the adjusting rod 132 is fitted with an adjusting block 1321 and a locking block 1322, the adjusting block 1321 can move below the adjusting base 131, and the locking block 1322 can move above the adjusting base 131; the adjusting block 1321 and the locking block 1322 cooperate with each other to lock the adjusting rod 132 to the adjusting base 131.

[0053] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, both the adjusting block 1321 and the locking block 1322 are nuts, and the adjusting rod 132 is a screw. The inner thread of the nut is adapted to the outer thread of the screw, so that the adjusting block 1321 and the locking block 1322 can rotate along the length of the adjusting rod 132. In addition, a fixed baffle is provided on the top of the second baffle 123, and the adjusting rod 132 is reliably connected to the fixed baffle by welding or nail-free adhesive.

[0054] When it is necessary to increase the distance between the discharge baffle assembly 12 and the hopper 11, that is, when the discharge baffle assembly 12 moves downward, the locking block 1322 needs to be rotated and moved upward on the adjusting rod 132 to the specified position. Then, the adjusting rod 132 moves downward until the lower surface of the locking block 1322 is in close contact with the upper surface of the adjusting fixing seat 131. Then, the adjusting block 1321 is rotated and moved upward on the adjusting rod 132 until it is in contact with the adjusting fixing seat 131, thus locking the adjusting fixing seat 131 between the locking block 1322 and the adjusting block 1321. Similarly, when it is necessary to shorten the distance between the discharge baffle assembly 12 and the hopper 11, that is, when the discharge baffle assembly 12 moves upward, the rotating adjusting block 1321 moves downward on the adjusting rod 132 to the designated position. After that, the adjusting rod 132 moves upward until the upper surface of the adjusting block 1321 is in close contact with the lower surface of the adjusting fixing seat 131. Then, the rotating locking block 1322 moves downward on the adjusting rod 132 until it is in contact with the adjusting fixing seat 131, locking the adjusting fixing seat 131 between the locking block 1322 and the adjusting block 1321.

[0055] Furthermore, baffles 8 are provided on both sides of the discharge belt 14, receiving belt 4, casting belt 6, and mold conveyor belt 5; the height of the baffles 8 is higher than the conveying surface of the discharge belt 14, receiving belt 4, casting belt 6, or mold conveyor belt 5, so that the slurry or mold 51 moves between the two baffles 8; the discharge belt 14, receiving belt 4, casting belt 6, and mold conveyor belt 5 are all connected by a motor drive, and the motor is equipped with a speed regulating device, which is used to adjust the driving speed of the motor on the discharge belt 14, receiving belt 4, casting belt 6, or mold conveyor belt 5.

[0056] The slurry of the eco-stone produced by the wet process has a certain fluidity. Therefore, baffles 8 are set on both sides of the discharge belt 14, receiving belt 4, casting belt 6 and mold conveyor belt 5. The height of the baffles 8 is higher than the conveying surface of the discharge belt 14, receiving belt 4 and casting belt 6 to prevent the slurry from flowing out from both sides of the discharge belt 14 or receiving belt 4 or casting belt 6, which would damage the discharge belt 14 or receiving belt 4 and pollute the production environment. Similarly, baffles 8 are set on both sides of the mold conveyor belt 5 so that the mold 51 can move along the mold conveyor belt 5 under the action of the baffles 8 on both sides, preventing the mold 51 from deviating on the mold conveyor belt 5.

[0057] Furthermore, one end of the fixing column in the height adjustment assembly 13 used to fix the adjustment fixing seat 131 is fixedly connected to the baffle plate 8 of the discharge belt 14, and the other end of the fixing column is fixedly connected to the adjustment fixing seat 131, so that the adjustment fixing seat 131 is fixed above the discharge belt 14; while the baffle plates 8 at both ends of the receiving belt 4 can also be used to support the primary flow divider 3, so that there is a gap between the primary flow divider 3 and the receiving belt 4, thereby allowing the color slurry to flow through the flow divider holes 311 of the primary flow divider 3 to form a striped texture slurry. Similarly, two dispersion rod fixing plates used to support the round rods are mounted side by side on the two baffle plates 8 of the casting belt 6, and multiple round rods are fixed side by side above the two dispersion rod fixing plates, so that there is a gap between the round rods and the casting belt 6, thereby dispersing the striped texture slurry.

[0058] In this invention, the rotation of the discharge belt 14, the receiving belt 4, the casting belt 6, and the mold conveyor belt 5 is all achieved by motor drive, and the motor is equipped with a speed regulating device, so that the discharge belt 14, the receiving belt 4, the casting belt 6, and the mold conveyor belt 5 can be adjusted, thereby making the amount of slurry flowing to the conveyor surface of the discharge belt 14 or the receiving belt 4 different at the same feeding speed and at the same time, thus affecting the length of the texture of the slurry flowing to the conveyor surface of the receiving belt 4.

[0059] It is worth noting that the speed control device in this embodiment can be a frequency converter or a speed controller, which can control the conveying speed of the discharge belt 14, the receiving belt 4, the casting belt 6 and the mold conveyor belt 5 at any time to meet the production needs.
