DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The following describes two implementation modes of the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] The first implementation method:

[0035] The movable docking structure 2 includes a telescopic shaft 21 rotatably connected to a fixed frame, a fixed end of the telescopic shaft 21 is fixedly connected to a power output end of a motor, a docking seat 24 matching the stirring shaft 11 is installed at the bottom of the movable end of the telescopic shaft 21, a gear ring 23 is fixedly connected to the middle of the telescopic shaft 21, a movable ring 22 is rotatably connected to the gear ring 23, and the movable ring 22 is sleeved on the telescopic shaft 21, and a vertical electric guide rail connected to the movable ring 22 is installed on the fixed frame 12;

[0036] The auxiliary feed tank 3 includes a shell 31 connected to the stirring tank 1, a liquid inlet matching the infusion tube is provided at the upper end of the shell 31, a stirring column 32 is rotatably connected in the shell 31, a transmission shaft 33 is rotatably connected to the side end of the shell 31, the top end of the transmission shaft 33 is connected to the stirring column 32 through a first transmission belt, and a docking auxiliary structure 5 is provided between the auxiliary feed tank 3 and the movable docking structure 2;

[0037] The docking auxiliary structure 5 includes a cylinder 51 installed on the top of the mixing tank 1, and the lifting end of the cylinder 51 is connected to a movable platform 52 which is slidably connected to the transmission shaft 33. The front end of the movable platform 52 is rotatably connected to a driven gear 53 matching the gear ring 23, and the rear end of the movable platform 52 is rotatably connected to a transmission cylinder 54 which is sleeved on the transmission shaft 33. A second transmission belt is connected between the transmission cylinder 54 and the transmission shaft 33.

[0038] The stirring blades include a main blade 13 connected to the stirring shaft 11 and an electric heating blade 14. The electric heating blade 14 is provided with an electric heating wire. A plurality of main blades 13 are provided with a pressure sensor and a temperature and humidity sensor. The electric heating blade 14 is arranged between two adjacent main blades 13 on the left and right. The electric heating blade 14 is used to heat the material. When the detected material humidity is greater than the set value, the electric heating blade 14 can be controlled to work to heat the material.

[0039] When this scheme is working, the large-particle materials, such as sawdust and wood chips, are firstly stirred by the stirring tank 1; when the materials are stirred in the stirring tank 1, the small-particle materials, such as wood fibers, can be stirred by controlling the auxiliary feed tank 3;

[0040] When the auxiliary feed tank 3 is stirring, the driven gear 53 is docked and meshed with the gear ring 23 by adjusting the movable docking structure 2, so that the auxiliary feed tank 3 and the stirring tank 1 are stirred synchronously; during the specific adjustment, the movable ring 22 is controlled to drive the gear ring 23 to descend, so that the docking seat 24 is docked with the stirring shaft 11, and then the cylinder 51 is controlled to work, so that the movable platform 52 rises a set distance, so that the driven gear 53 is meshed with the descending gear ring 23, and at this time, the transmission shaft 33 and the stirring shaft 11 rotate synchronously when the motor is turned on, so that the stirring column 32 and the stirring shaft 11 rotate synchronously to perform stirring;

[0041] Optionally, when the mixing tank 1 is mixing large-particle materials, if the mixing tank 1 mixes the materials evenly before the auxiliary feed tank 3, and the remaining time for the auxiliary feed tank 3 to complete the pretreatment work is greater than the set value, the movable docking structure 2 can be adjusted to make the driven gear 53 dock and mesh with the raised gear ring 23, and the auxiliary feed tank 3 can independently perform the mixing work, specifically by controlling the vertical electric guide rail to work, driving the movable ring 22 to drive the gear ring 23 to rise, and then separating the docking seat 24 from the mixing shaft 11, and then controlling the cylinder 51 to work, so that the driven gear 53 docks and meshes with the raised gear ring 23, so that the auxiliary feed tank 3 can independently perform the mixing work;

[0042] After the auxiliary feed tank 3 completes the pretreatment work by independent stirring, it is ready to carry out quantitative feeding;

[0043] When the auxiliary feed tank 3 and the stirring shaft 11 are stirred synchronously, it is easy to realize that when the stirring shaft 11 stirs the large particle material, the material in the auxiliary feed tank 3 pre-treats the small particle material. When the auxiliary feed tank 3 stirs the small particle material, an auxiliary liquid, such as an antibacterial deodorant, can be input into the auxiliary feed tank 3 through an infusion tube for pre-mixing, so that the small particle material absorbs the liquid raw material in advance, avoiding uneven distribution of a small dose of liquid in the large particle material.

[0044] After the pretreatment work of the auxiliary feed tank 3 is completed, it is ready for quantitative feeding. During quantitative feeding, the material is output to the mixing tank 1 through the spiral feed pipe at its output end. During output, the spiral feed pipe can be adjusted to output quantitatively;

[0045] After each set amount of pre-treated small particle material is output, the mixing tank 1 continues to stir until the detection values ​​of the pressure sensors and temperature and humidity sensors on the multiple main blades 13 are consistent, then it is judged that the added material has been stirred evenly, and then the auxiliary feed tank 3 continues to feed quantitatively, and the above work is repeated until the auxiliary feed tank 3 completes the feeding of the set amount of material.

[0046] Second implementation method:

[0047] Figure 3-7 As shown, it also includes an auxiliary mixing system, which includes a processor connected to the stirring tank 1, and the processor is connected to a control module, a monitoring module and a data processing module;

[0048] A control module is used to control the working parameters of the stirring tank and the auxiliary feed tank, including parameters such as stirring speed and stirring time;

[0049] Monitoring module: used to monitor the material status in the mixing tank and auxiliary feed tank in real time, such as the pressure on each mixing blade, material temperature and material humidity, etc.

[0050] The data processing module is used to process the data collected by the monitoring module, and judge the material status in the mixing tank 1 and the auxiliary feed tank 3 according to the data processing results, and judge whether the materials are mixed evenly. The control module adjusts the operation of the movable docking structure 2, the mixing tank 1 and the auxiliary feed tank 3 according to the data processing results to optimize the mixing process.

[0051] This system achieves efficient mixing of large and small particles through a flexible active docking structure and an auxiliary mixing system. It has the advantages of easy operation, uniform mixing, and strong controllability.

[0052] When the stirring tank 1 and the auxiliary feed tank 3 are stirring synchronously, the stirring tank 1 stirs the materials evenly before the auxiliary feed tank 3, and the remaining time for the auxiliary feed tank 3 to complete the pretreatment work is greater than the set value, the movable docking structure 2 is adjusted to make the driven gear 53 dock and mesh with the raised gear ring 23, and the auxiliary feed tank 3 performs stirring work independently;

[0053] When the movable docking structure 2 is adjusted, the vertical displacement distance of the movable ring 22 is driven by controlling the vertical electric guide rail, and the movable end of the cylinder 51 is controlled to rise and fall, so that the gear ring 23 is docked with the driven gear 53 and the docking seat 24 is docked with the stirring shaft 11, thereby realizing the rapid switching of synchronous stirring or independent stirring of the stirring tank 1 and the auxiliary feed tank 3;

[0054] When the movable docking structure 2 is adjusting, the control module controls the motor to stop working. Angle sensors connected to the monitoring module signal are installed on the ring gear 23 and the driven gear 53. When the ring gear 23 is docked with the driven gear 53, the control module controls the motor to rotate the ring gear 23 to an angle that matches the rotation angle of the driven gear 53.

[0055] The auxiliary mixing system of the present embodiment dynamically adjusts the working states of the stirring tank 1 and the auxiliary feed tank 3 according to the data provided by the monitoring module to ensure the uniformity and efficiency of material mixing. The data processing module determines the optimal time point for mixing materials of different particle sizes by analyzing the monitoring data, so that the auxiliary feed tank 3 used for pretreatment of small particle materials can be stirred synchronously or independently with the stirring tank 1, thereby reducing unnecessary stirring time and saving energy consumption. The pad material mixing and stirring device of the present embodiment can realize an efficient, safe and automated mixing process to meet the needs of modern industrial production.

[0056] In summary, this solution realizes the graded mixing of materials and the automatic remixing of materials with different particle sizes after mixing. During operation, the material status of materials with different particle sizes when being stirred is monitored in real time to ensure that materials with different particle sizes are remixed under the best conditions, thereby optimizing the entire production process. At the same time, the stirring structures used for different particle sizes can be quickly docked and separated to achieve rapid switching between synchronous and independent work. This solution not only improves production efficiency, but also reduces energy consumption.

[0057] In view of current practical needs, the above-mentioned implementation mode adopted in this application is not limited to the scope of protection. Various changes made within the knowledge scope of technical personnel in this field without departing from the concept of this application still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
