Detailed implementation mode

[0035] Now, the present invention will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are all simplified schematic diagrams, only illustrating the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner, so they only show the components related to the present invention.

[0036] The present invention discloses a self-sealing compensation type discharging device for a concrete spraying machine.

[0037] Refer to Figures 1 to 3 , a self-sealing compensation type discharging device for a concrete spraying machine includes a discharging device housing 2, a discharging device blade part 3 rotatably connected in the discharging device housing 2, and a chain transmission box 1.

[0038] The discharging device blade part 3 includes a central shaft body 31 and a plurality of discharging device blades 32; the central shaft body 31 includes a blade driving shaft 311, a blade shaft 312, and a suspension ventilation shaft 313 that are coaxially and sequentially connected; the shaft body of this discharging device is composed of multiple shaft connections, which can simultaneously realize multiple functions such as connection, transmission, sealing, and ventilation, and is convenient for replacement and disassembly.

[0039] One end of the blade driving shaft 311 is connected with a sprocket through a keyway. One end of the chain transmission box 1 is connected with a hydraulic motor as the driving part of the discharging device, and the other end is connected with the sprocket at the end of the blade driving shaft 311 to drive the discharging device blade part 3 to rotate.

[0040] Refer to Figures 4 to 7 , the end of the blade driving shaft 311 away from the chain transmission box 1 is coaxially fixed with the blade shaft 312 through a keyway, and the end of the blade shaft 312 away from the blade driving shaft 311 is rotatably connected with the suspension ventilation shaft 313. A plurality of discharging device blades 32 are fixed on the outer peripheral surface of the blade shaft 312; the side of each discharging device blade 32 away from the blade shaft 312 is connected with a nylon support 33 through bolts. The width of the nylon support 33 increases in the direction close to the inner wall of the discharging device housing 2. Upper grooves 331 and lower grooves 332 are respectively opened on the upper and lower side walls of the nylon support 33, so that the cross-sectional shape of the nylon support 33 is in an H shape. The side of the discharging device blade 32 away from the blade shaft 312 is inserted into the lower groove 332, and a nylon wear-resistant strip 34 is arranged in the upper groove 331, and one side of the nylon wear-resistant strip 34 extends out of the upper groove 331. The outer side wall of the nylon wear-resistant strip 34 away from the nylon support 33 abuts against the inner wall of the discharging device housing 2. The setting of the nylon support 33 and the nylon wear-resistant strip 34 can effectively improve the wear resistance during the operation of the discharging device, reduce the conveying time of the discharging device when conveying high-friction type materials such as concrete, and improve work efficiency.

[0041] A central channel 314 communicating with the suspension ventilation shaft 313 is provided in the center of the blade shaft 312, and then the high-pressure gas introduced through the suspension ventilation shaft 313 can enter the central channel 314 inside the blade shaft 312. A diversion hole 322 is provided in the discharge device blade 32. The bottom end of the diversion hole 322 extends through the blade shaft 312 and communicates with the central channel 314, and the top end of the diversion hole 322 extends through the nylon support 33 and communicates with the upper groove 331.

[0042] When the high-pressure gas enters the central channel 314 of the blade shaft 312 through the suspension ventilation shaft 313, and then the high-pressure gas flows through the diversion hole 322 into the nylon wear-resistant strip 34 in the upper groove 331. The nylon wear-resistant strip 34 is lifted under the action of the high-pressure gas and clings to the inner wall of the discharge device, thereby realizing the self-sealing compensation of the discharge device and increasing the sealing performance of the discharge device. In addition, the discharge device blade 32 is elastically in contact with the inner wall of the discharge device through the nylon wear-resistant strip 34, effectively reducing the situation that the discharge device is stuck and stops running due to fine sand stuck in the gap, and the working stability is higher.

[0043] In order to further ensure the effect and stability of the airtightness self-compensation, a blade blind hole 321 is provided on the side wall of the discharge device blade 32 away from the blade shaft 312, and the top end of the blade blind hole 321 extends through the nylon support 33. A spring 35 is provided in the blade blind hole 321. The bottom end of the spring 35 is connected to the bottom wall of the blade blind hole 321, and the top end of the spring 35 passes through the nylon support 33 and abuts against the bottom surface of the nylon wear-resistant strip 34. The spring 35 cooperates with the high-pressure air to realize the air pump function, ensuring that the nylon wear-resistant strip 34 can cling to the inner wall of the discharge device, realizing the airtightness self-supplementation, ensuring the inner wall fitting degree, and further improving the sealing performance of the discharge device.

[0044] Refer to Figure 6 As shown, sealing grooves are provided on the opposite inner walls of the upper groove 331 of the nylon support 33, and sealing strips 333 are provided in the sealing grooves. The sealing strips 333 are attached to the side walls of the nylon wear-resistant strip 34. This design can effectively ensure the airtightness of the nylon wear-resistant strip 34 during elastic movement and prevent the high-pressure gas from leaking from the gap between the nylon wear-resistant strip 34 and the nylon support 33.

[0045] Refer to Figures 1 to 3, the discharge device housing 2 is open at both axial ends and is provided with end cover assemblies 4; the end cover assemblies 4 are hinged and installed at the openings at both ends of the discharge device housing 2 through connecting rods; the end cover assemblies 4 include outer end covers 41, sealing covers 42, nylon covers 43 and inner end covers 44. Among them, the outer end covers 41, sealing covers 42 and nylon covers 43 are fixedly connected by screws, and the sealing covers 42 are located between the nylon covers 43 and the outer end covers 41; the inner end covers 44 are fixed to the end faces of the discharge device blades 32 by screws, rotate synchronously with the discharge device blades 32, and the inner end covers 44 are attached to the side walls of the nylon covers 43 away from the sealing covers 42. The combined design of multiple covers of the end cover assembly 4 effectively improves the opening sealing performance of the discharge device.

[0046] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , there are two self-dismantling hydraulic cylinders 5, and the two self-dismantling hydraulic cylinders 5 are respectively installed on both sides of the discharge device housing 2. The self-dismantling hydraulic cylinders 5 correspond to the end cover assemblies 4 one by one. The piston rods of the self-dismantling hydraulic cylinders 5 are connected to the outer end covers 41. When the piston rods extend, they can drive the end cover assemblies 4 to deflect away from the discharge device housing 2, thereby opening the openings at both ends of the discharge device, which is simple and convenient, and facilitates subsequent operations such as cleaning the discharge device or replacing parts by the staff.

[0047] Referring to Figure 8 , in some embodiments, two slide rails 51 are provided at the bottom of the chain transmission box 1. The chain transmission box 1 is slidably connected to the slide rails 51. A guide rod 52 is fixed to one side of the chain transmission box 1 close to the discharge device housing 2. A guide block 53 for the guide rod 52 to slide through is fixedly bolted on the outer peripheral surface of the discharge device housing 2. Then it is convenient to move the chain transmission box 1 away to facilitate opening the end cover assembly 4 on the side close to the chain transmission box 1.

[0048] Enlightened by the above ideal embodiments according to the present invention, through the above description, relevant staff can completely make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical idea of this invention. The technical scope of this invention is not limited to the content in the specification, and its technical scope must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
