Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of factory-scale sericulture equipment, and particularly relates to a centrifuge for sericulture appliances. Background Art

[0002] The traditional breeding method is a small-scale family workshop breeding method. The small-scale workshop breeding is a fully manual breeding method. From the hatching of silkworm eggs into adults to the cocoon harvesting, all are achieved through manual operations, which is time-consuming and laborious, with very low breeding efficiency. Moreover, it is restricted by seasonal conditions and can only raise silkworms at specific times. The annual output of cocoons is extremely low and simply cannot meet the needs of today's society, and it has gradually been eliminated by society. To make up for the deficiencies of traditional workshop-style sericulture, large-scale and factory-scale sericulture technologies have emerged. To meet the requirements of large-scale breeding, breeding appliances such as breeding frames and carriers for silkworms have been designed. Based on these breeding appliances, processes such as silkworm breeding, transfer of silkworms between breeding stages at different ages, and feed feeding can be realized, and they play an important role in factory-scale sericulture technology. After sericulture, impurities such as feed and silkworm excrement will remain on the appliances, and their surfaces are full of bacteria. They need to be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected before they can be put into use again. Therefore, in factory-scale sericulture technology, corresponding cleaning equipment or cleaning lines are often required.

[0003] The centrifuge is one of the important cleaning equipment in factory-scale sericulture. After the appliances are cleaned, they can be quickly put into use through the centrifuging of the centrifuge, without the need for air drying or baking. The drying efficiency is high and the effect is good. The existing centrifuge has a structure that is not suitable for centrifuging sericulture appliances, is not matched with sericulture appliances, and cannot limit and fix the sericulture appliances, resulting in poor centrifuging stability, and problems such as easy deviation and dislocation are likely to occur, affecting the centrifuging effect. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a centrifuge for sericulture appliances. In view of the defects in the prior art, a limiting structure is set for the centrifuge. This limiting structure can limit and fix the sericulture appliances, enabling them to remain stable during centrifugal drying and improving the drying effect.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the following technical solutions are adopted:

[0006] A centrifuge for sericulture appliances, comprising a centrifuging mechanism and a driving mechanism for driving the centrifuging mechanism, characterized in that: the centrifuging mechanism includes a drum and a limiting structure. The drum is connected to the driving mechanism and is driven by the driving mechanism to rotate. The drum is used to drive the appliances for centrifugal drying; the limiting structure is installed on the drum and is used to limit the appliances on the drum.

[0007] Furthermore, the drum is provided with through holes, which are used to drain the water generated by centrifugal drying downward.

[0008] Furthermore, the limiting structure includes a frame mounting assembly. The frame mounting assembly encloses a drying station for placing the appliance.

[0009] Furthermore, the frame mounting assembly includes a bottom plate, and a first limiting member, a second limiting member, and a third limiting member mounted on the bottom plate. The drying station is formed by enclosing with the first limiting member, the second limiting member, and the third limiting member to limit the appliance within the drying station.

[0010] Furthermore, the limiting structure includes a movable limiting member. The movable limiting member moves above the appliance under the action of centrifugal force and presses on the appliance to limit the appliance.

[0011] Furthermore, the movable limiting member includes a movable pressing plate and a hinge bolt. The movable pressing plate is hingedly arranged through the hinge bolt. The movable pressing plate rotates above the appliance under the action of centrifugal force and presses on the appliance to limit the appliance.

[0012] Furthermore, the movable limiting member further includes a limiting bolt. The movable pressing plate is provided with a movable limiting hole. The limiting bolt passes through the movable limiting hole and is fixed. The limiting bolt and the movable limiting hole are used to control the rotation amplitude of the movable pressing plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the movable limiting member further includes a buffer. The buffer acts on the movable pressing plate for buffering.

[0014] Furthermore, the buffer includes a buffer cylinder body and a buffer ejector rod. The buffer ejector rod is connected to the buffer cylinder body and is telescopic. The buffer ejector rod acts on the movable pressing plate for buffering.

[0015] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a drying motor, a driving pulley, a driven pulley, a belt, and a main shaft. The drying motor is connected to the driving pulley. The driving pulley and the driven pulley are connected and driven by the belt. The driven pulley is connected to the drying mechanism through the main shaft.

[0016] Furthermore, the dryer further includes a casing assembly. The casing assembly is provided with a drain port for draining water.

[0017] Furthermore, the dryer further includes a positioning assembly for positioning the drum after drying to the position before drying.

[0018] Furthermore, the positioning assembly includes a cylinder and a positioning pin. The drum is provided with a positioning hole. The cylinder is connected to the positioning pin through a piston rod. The positioning pin and the positioning hole are mutually matched. The drum after drying is positioned to the position before drying by inserting the positioning pin into the positioning hole.

[0019] Furthermore, the positioning assembly further includes a proximity switch and a position locator. The proximity switch and the position locator are mutually matched. The proximity switch is used to identify whether the drum rotates to the position before drying, so as to control the cylinder according to the identification signal.

[0020] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the following beneficial effects are achieved:

[0021] The present invention provides a limiting structure for a spin dryer. This limiting structure can limit and fix the sericulture appliances, enabling them to remain stable during the centrifugal drying process, improving the drying effect, avoiding problems such as deviation and misalignment of the appliances during the drying process, and enhancing the drying efficiency.

[0022] The plate-frame installation combination forms a drying station, which can limit the sericulture appliances within the drying station, preventing them from deviating or being misaligned in the horizontal direction and ensuring horizontal stability; multiple stacked appliance groups can be placed in this drying station to achieve the purpose of drying multiple appliances simultaneously, significantly enhancing the drying efficiency.

[0023] The movable limiting member rotates under the action of centrifugal force, and its movable pressing plate rotates into the drying station, thereby pressing the appliances in the drying station from the top to ensure vertical stability; at the same time, it tightly combines the appliances with the drum to improve the drying effect.

Detailed implementation manners

[0032] The present invention aims to provide a dryer for sericulture appliances, and a limiting structure is provided for the dryer. The limiting structure can limit and fix the sericulture appliances, so that they remain stable during the centrifugal drying process, improve the drying effect, avoid problems such as deviation and displacement of the appliances during the drying process, and improve the drying efficiency.

[0033] The technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments:

[0034] As Figure 1 shown, a dryer for sericulture appliances includes a casing assembly, a drying mechanism, and a driving mechanism for driving the drying mechanism. The casing assembly includes a flat plate 11, support feet 12, an upper housing 13, a lower housing 14, and an inner tank 16. The flat plate 11 and the support feet 12 play a supporting role to ensure the stability of the dryer. The bottom of the support feet 12 is provided with vibration-absorbing rubber and shock pads, which greatly reduce the friction generated by drying and improve the drying stability. The upper housing 13 and the lower housing 14 are hermetically connected through a gasket 15. The upper housing 13 serves to protect the drying mechanism, so that the drying operation is carried out inside. On the one hand, it avoids the splashing of drying water, and on the other hand, it prevents the appliances from being thrown out due to faults, improving safety. An opening is provided at the upper end of the upper housing 13, and the size of the opening is slightly larger than the size of the appliances for the appliances to be put into the dryer. The lower housing 14 is communicated with the upper housing 13, and the dried water falls into the lower housing 14. The lower housing 14 is installed on the flat plate 11 and is provided with a drain port penetrating the flat plate 11, and the dried water is discharged through the drain port. The inner tank 16 encloses the drying mechanism. On the one hand, it can protect the drying structure, and on the other hand, it avoids the splashing of the dried water, so that the dried water can fall downward.

[0035] As Figure 2As shown in the figure, the drying mechanism is driven by a driving mechanism to rotate, and the utensils are dried by centrifugal rotation. The utensils can be a silkworm frame, a partition board, a cocoon cage, etc.; the drying mechanism includes a drum 2 and a limiting structure. The drum 2 is connected to the driving mechanism, and the utensils to be dried are placed on it, which is used to drive the utensils to rotate, so as to achieve the purpose of centrifugally drying the utensils. The drum 2 is a disc structure, provided with a plurality of through holes 21, and the water generated by drying drops downward through the through holes 21.

[0036] As Figure 2 As shown in the figure, in order to ensure that the utensils can rotate stably with the drum 2, a limiting structure is provided for the drum 2, which is used to limit and fix the utensils to be dried on the drum 2. The limiting structure includes a frame mounting combination part 3 and a movable limiting part 4. The frame mounting combination part 3 limits the utensils in the horizontal direction. It includes a bottom plate 34 and a first limiting part 31, a second limiting part 32 and a third limiting part 33 installed on the bottom plate 34. The bottom plate 34 is provided on both sides of the drum 2. Each bottom plate 34 is installed with a first limiting part 31, a second limiting part 32 and a third limiting part 33. The first limiting part 31 is composed of two vertical rods and a horizontal rod above. The first limiting part 31 is installed on the bottom plate 34 one after the other; the second limiting part 32 is composed of two vertical plates and is used to connect the first limiting part 31 and the third limiting part 33. The third limiting part 33 is composed of two vertical rods and a horizontal rod above. The first limiting part 31, the second limiting part 32 and the third limiting part 33 on each bottom plate 34 are combined to form a concave limiting part. The limiting parts on the left and right sides cooperate with each other to form a drying station 35 with a limiting function. The drying station 35 limits the horizontal movement of the utensils, avoids problems such as offset and dislocation of the utensils in the horizontal direction, and ensures the stability in the horizontal direction; a stack of utensils can be placed in the drying station 35 to achieve the purpose of drying multiple utensils at the same time, significantly improving the drying efficiency.

[0037] As Figure 3As shown in the figure, the movable limit member 4 limits the appliance in the vertical direction. There are 4 of them, which are respectively installed on the transverse rods of the 4 first limit members 31. The movable limit member 4 includes an assembly plate 47, a movable pressing plate 41, a hinge bolt 42 and a limit bolt 43 installed on the assembly plate 47. Assembly plates 47 are installed on the tops of the 4 first limit members 31. The movable pressing plate 41 is L-shaped, provided with a hinge hole and a movable limit hole 44. The hinge bolt 42 passes through the hinge hole and the assembly plate 47 and is connected to the inner cavity of the vertical rod of the first limit member 31. The limit bolt 43 passes through the movable limit hole 44 and the assembly plate 47 and is fixed to the transverse rod of the first limit member 31. Under the action of the hinge bolt 42, the movable pressing plate 41 can rotate around the hinge bolt 42 as the axis. During centrifugal drying, the movable pressing plate 41 rotates under the action of centrifugal force, and its front end turns into the drying station 35, so as to press the appliance in the drying station 35, ensuring the stability in the vertical direction and limiting and fixing it in the drying station 35. At the same time, the appliance is closely combined with the drum 2 to improve the drying effect.

[0038] The movable limit hole 44 is an arc-shaped long hole, and its arc length is determined according to actual requirements. The movable limit hole 44 matches the moving direction of the movable pressing plate 41. The rotation amplitude of the movable pressing plate 41 is restricted by the fixed limit bolt 43, so that the movable pressing plate 41 can rotate to the designed position under the action of centrifugal force. In this position, the movable pressing plate 41 can firmly press the appliance to avoid losing the effect of pressing the appliance due to excessive rotation. Both the hinge bolt 42 and the limit bolt 43 are connected to the anti-loosening safety piece 46 and fixed by nuts to prevent the hinge bolt 42 and the limit bolt 43 from loosening.

[0039] The movable limit member 4 further includes a buffer 45. The buffer 45 is installed on the assembly plate 47 and acts on the movable pressing plate 41 for buffering. The buffer 45 is a hydraulic buffer 45, which includes a buffer cylinder body 451 and a buffer ejector rod 452. The buffer ejector rod 452 is connected to the buffer cylinder body 451 and can be telescopic. The buffer ejector rod 452 acts on the rear end of the movable pressing plate 41. During centrifugal drying, the movable pressing plate 41 rotates under the action of centrifugal force. At this time, the buffer ejector rod 452 is forced to contract into the buffer cylinder body 451. After the centrifugal drying is over, the buffer ejector rod 452 extends and resets under the action of hydraulic pressure, so as to push the rear end of the movable pressing plate 41 to reset and release the pressing state of the appliance. The structural design is ingenious, realizing automatic pressing and automatic reset.

[0040] As Figure 4As shown, the driving mechanism includes a spin motor 61, a driving pulley 62, a driven pulley 64, a belt 63 and a main shaft 65. The spin motor 61 is installed in the motor box 17 of the flat plate 11, and its motor shaft is downwardly connected to the driving pulley 62. The driving pulley 62 and the driven pulley 64 are connected for transmission through a belt 63. The driven pulley 64 is upwardly connected to the drum 2 through the main shaft 65. The main shaft 65 is externally connected to a bearing assembly 66 to improve stability.

[0041] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the spin dryer also includes a positioning assembly 5, which is used to position the rotary drum 2 after spinning to the position before spinning. The positioning assembly 5 includes a cylinder 51 and a positioning pin 54. The cylinder 51 is mounted on the lower housing 14 through a cylinder mounting member, and the cylinder mounting member includes two cylinder mounting plates 52 and a positioning rod 53 connecting the cylinder mounting plates 52. The cylinder 51 is connected to the positioning pin 54 through the piston rod, which can drive the positioning pin 54 to extend and retract. The drum 2 is provided with a positioning hole 22, and the positioning pin 54 matches the positioning hole 22, that is, the positioning pin 54 can be inserted into the positioning hole 22; the cylinder mounting plate 52 is also connected to the pin sleeve 55, and the pin sleeve 55 is used to install the positioning pin 54 to play a guiding role; after the spin-drying is completed, the drum 2 gradually slows down, and before slowing down to near stop, when the positioning hole 22 follows the drum 2 to rotate to the position before spin-drying, the cylinder 51 is started to control the positioning pin 54 to be inserted into the positioning hole 22, thereby positioning the drum 2 at the position before spin-drying, so that the spin-drying device can be accurately placed in the spin-drying station 35.

[0042] In order to identify whether the drum 2 rotates to the position before spinning, the positioning assembly 5 also includes a proximity switch 7 and a position positioning member 71. The position positioning member 71 is arranged on the driven pulley 64. The proximity switch 7 is below the flat plate 11, at the same height as the position positioning member 71, and facing the position positioning member 71. During the positioning process, the position positioning member 71 rotates to the position of the proximity switch 7. The proximity switch 7 senses the proximity signal and transmits the signal to the corresponding controller. After receiving the proximity signal, the controller controls the cylinder 51 to start, driving the positioning pin 54 to be inserted into the positioning socket 22, thereby achieving positioning. The proximity switch 7 is connected to a proximity switch adjustment rod 72, which can adjust the proximity switch 7.

[0043] The positioning components 5 are provided in two groups, which can improve the positioning accuracy.

[0044] The above are only specific embodiments of the present invention, but the technical features of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any simple changes, equivalent replacements or modifications made based on the present invention to solve basically the same technical problems and achieve basically the same technical effects are all included in the protection scope of the present invention.
