Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of large-scale bentonite cutting technology, and in particular to a device and method for cutting large-scale bentonite blocks. Background Technology
[0002] Large bentonite blocks are typically produced through compaction (such as the "two-step compaction" method). To improve production efficiency, the initial block size is relatively large (such as a large-volume cuboid). However, in actual use, such large original blocks are rarely needed, so they need to be cut into smaller units that are easier to process.
[0003] In the existing technology, after the bentonite is cut, it needs to be manually transported. This method not only affects work efficiency, but also has a low degree of automation. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a large bentonite block cutting device and method to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art, which are that some bentonite block cutting devices have low working efficiency and low degree of automation.
[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution: A large bentonite block cutting device and method includes a base and a cutting machine. The top of the base is used to place bentonite. A jacking block that can move along the length of the base is arranged above the base. Movable baffles are arranged on two sides of the top of the base along its length. The jacking block is located between the two baffles. A force-bearing block and a rotatable transfer plate are arranged at one end of the base. A moving mechanism is arranged on the base. The moving mechanism is used to synchronously drive the jacking block to push the bentonite towards the force-bearing block to abut against the force-bearing block and to move the two baffles closer to or away from the bentonite. The cutting machine is used to cut the portion of the bentonite that protrudes from the base. A slider is slidably arranged between the base and the force-bearing block along the width of the base. The transfer plate is located at one end of the force-bearing block and is at the same horizontal plane as the force-bearing block. The slider is used to move the cut bentonite towards the transfer plate. The transfer plate is rotatable.
[0006] Working principle: In use, place the large bentonite on the base, then start the moving mechanism. The moving mechanism simultaneously drives the jacking block to push the bentonite towards the force-bearing block and make contact with it. It also drives the two baffles to approach the bentonite and make contact with it. The cutting machine cuts the part of the bentonite that extends out of the base. Then, start the slider. The slider drives the cut bentonite towards the transfer plate. Then, the transfer plate rotates downward and drives the cut bentonite downward, so that the cut bentonite slides down along the inclined transfer plate.
[0007] Beneficial effects: In this solution, by setting up a moving mechanism, a jacking block, and baffles, the moving mechanism synchronously drives the jacking block to push the bentonite towards the force-bearing block and to make contact with the force-bearing block, and drives the two baffles to move closer to or away from the bentonite. This linkage effect optimizes the operation process and improves work efficiency. By setting a slider, the slider can move the cut bentonite toward the transfer plate, thereby transferring the cut bentonite, avoiding interference with subsequent bentonite cutting, and improving work efficiency. By setting up a transfer plate, the transfer plate can drive the cut bentonite placed in front of the transfer plate to rotate downwards, so that the cut bentonite can slide down along the inclined transfer plate, eliminating the need for manual handling by workers, reducing labor intensity, and this mechanized and automated operation is easy to operate.

Detailed Implementation
[0010] The technical solutions of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0011] Example: like Figures 1-3As shown, a large bentonite block cutting device and method includes a base 1 and a cutting machine 2. The base 1 includes two flat plates and four columns. The four columns are fixed between the two flat plates and are located at the four opposite corners of the flat plates. It should be noted that the structure of the base 1 is existing technology and quite common. Those skilled in the art should be familiar with its structure, principle, and usage, etc., and will not be described in detail here. The top of the base 1 is used to place bentonite. A jacking block 3 that can move along the length of the base 1 is provided above the base 1. Movable... The base 1 has two baffles 4, and the push block 3 is located between them. One end of the base 1 has a force-bearing block 33 and a rotatable transfer plate 5. A moving mechanism is provided on the base 1, including a first motor 7. The first motor 7 is fixedly connected to the lower plate of the base 1. The output end of the first motor 7 is connected to a first transmission shaft 8. The length direction of the first transmission shaft 8 is consistent with the width direction of the base 1. A first bevel gear 9 is fixedly provided on the outer periphery of the first transmission shaft 8. An auxiliary plate 10 is provided at the end of the base 1 away from the force-bearing block 33. The auxiliary plate 10 has a bearing that rotates to face the bottom. The first rotating shaft 11 of the base 1 is connected via a bearing. It should be noted that this method of rotational connection is existing technology and quite common. Those skilled in the art should be familiar with its structure, principle, and usage, which will not be described in detail here. The end of the first rotating shaft 11 passes through the base 1, and a second bevel gear 12 is fixed to its outer circumference. The first bevel gear 9 meshes with the second bevel gear 12. A second rotating shaft 13 is also rotatably mounted on the auxiliary plate 10 via a bearing. Again, it should be noted that this method of rotational connection via a bearing is existing technology and quite common. Those skilled in the art should be familiar with its structure, principle, and usage. The method and other contents include the fact that the second rotating shaft 13 is parallel to the first rotating shaft 11 and is located above the first rotating shaft 11. Both the first rotating shaft 11 and the second rotating shaft 13 are fixedly provided with sprockets 14 near the outer periphery of the auxiliary plate 10, and a chain 15 is meshed between the two sprockets 14. The second rotating shaft 13 is a threaded rod, and a pusher auxiliary block 16 is threadedly connected to the outer periphery of the second rotating shaft 13. A telescopic rod 17 with the same length direction as the second rotating shaft 13 is also fixedly provided on the auxiliary plate 10. A connecting plate 18 is fixed between the end of the pusher auxiliary block 16 and the end of the telescopic rod 17. The pusher block 3 is connected to the connecting plate 18.
[0012] like Figures 1-4As shown, the moving mechanism is used to synchronously drive the jacking block 3 to push the bentonite towards the force-bearing block 33 and to abut against the force-bearing block 33, and to drive the two baffles 4 to move closer to or away from the bentonite. A first electric telescopic rod 19 is fixed on the connecting plate 18. The length direction of the first electric telescopic rod 19 is consistent with the length direction of the telescopic rod 17. The jacking block 3 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 19. The extension and retraction of the first electric telescopic rod 19 is used to further push the large bentonite 36 towards the force-bearing block 33 and to abut against the force-bearing block 33. The first transmission shaft 8 is a threaded rod and is composed of two rod segments with opposite thread directions. Both rod segments of the first transmission shaft 8 are threadedly connected to baffle auxiliary blocks 20 on their outer periphery. The two baffles 4 are connected to the two baffle auxiliary blocks 20. It should be noted that in actual operation, the sliding range of the baffle auxiliary block 20 is directly limited by limiting the effective length of the two reverse threads on the first drive shaft 8, thus preventing the baffle 4 from moving excessively. The base 1 is provided with a first sliding groove 21, and the two baffle auxiliary blocks 20 are slidably disposed in the first sliding groove 21, thereby limiting the movement of the baffle auxiliary blocks 20 and increasing the stability of the baffle auxiliary blocks 20 when moving. The cutting machine 2 is used to cut the part of the bentonite that protrudes from the base 1. It should be noted that the cutting machine 2 is existing technology and is relatively common. The cutting machine 2 is a movable machine. For longitudinal cutting of large bentonite 36, those skilled in the art should be clear about its structure, principle and usage, etc., and will not be described in detail here.
[0013] like Figures 1-3As shown, a slider 6 is slidably disposed between the base 1 and the force-bearing block 33 along the width direction of the base 1. A slide rail is provided between the base 1 and the force-bearing block 33, and the slider 6 is slidably disposed within the slide rail. It should be noted that the slider 6 being slidably disposed within the slide rail is existing technology and is quite common. Those skilled in the art should be familiar with its structure, principle, and usage, etc., which will not be described in detail here. The transfer plate 5 is disposed at one end of the force-bearing block 33 and is on the same horizontal plane as the force-bearing block 33. A second motor 23 is disposed on the side of the base 1. The output end of the second motor 23 is connected to a second transmission shaft 24 parallel to the width direction of the base 1. A support rod is disposed at the bottom of the second transmission shaft 24 to support it. It should be noted that the support rod is existing technology and is quite common. Those skilled in the art should be familiar with its structure and principle. The details of its use and other aspects are not described in detail here. A limiting rod 34, parallel to and on the same horizontal plane as the second transmission shaft 24, is fixed between the base 1 and the force-bearing block 33. A support rod is provided at the bottom of the limiting rod 34 to support it. It should be noted that the support rod is an existing technology and is quite common. Those skilled in the art should be clear about its structure, principle and use, etc., which will not be described in detail here. The second transmission shaft 24 is a threaded rod. The slider 6 is threadedly connected to the second transmission shaft 24. The slider 6 is slidably connected to the limiting rod 34. It should be noted that a through hole is provided in the slider 6. The fit clearance between the through hole in the slider 6 and the limiting rod 34 enhances the stability of the slider 6 when it moves. The slider 6 is used to move the cut bentonite 37 toward the transfer plate 5.
[0014] like Figures 1-3 As shown, both ends of the slider 6 are provided with fixing plates 25, and each fixing plate 25 is fixed with a second electric telescopic rod 26. The telescopic ends of the two second electric telescopic rods 26 are opposite each other, and the telescopic ends of the two second electric telescopic rods 26 are fixed with bearings 27. Each bearing 27 has a connecting shaft 28 fixed on its inner wall. The ends of the two connecting shafts 28 are used to abut against the bentonite end face after the cutting is completed.
[0015] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the transfer plate 5 is provided with a third electric telescopic rod 29 at both ends of its side facing the base 1, with the telescopic end of the third electric telescopic rod 29 facing upwards; the slider 6 is provided with a second sliding groove 30 on both end faces, and the two fixing plates 25 are vertically slidably disposed in the two second sliding grooves 30. When the slider 6 moves in the width direction of the base 1 to the front of the transfer plate 5, the bottom of the fixing plate 25 abuts against the corresponding end of the third electric telescopic rod 29. The third electric telescopic rod 29 is used to push the fixing plate 25 vertically upwards in the second sliding groove 30, thereby driving the cut bentonite 36 away from the slider 6.
[0016] like Figures 1-3As shown, the transfer plate 5 is rotatable. The transfer plate 5 is divided into a fixed part 501 and a rotating part 502 located on the top of the fixed part 501 and rotatably connected to the top of the fixed part 501 via a pin. The rotating part 502 abuts against the cut bentonite 37. It should be noted that a guide strip is provided on the surface of the rotating part 502. The guide strip can guide the cut bentonite 37 to slide down the inclined surface of the rotating part 502. The guide strip is existing technology and is relatively common. Those skilled in the art should be clear about its structure, principle and usage, etc., and will not be described in detail here. It also includes a third motor 31, which is connected to the fixed part 501 of the transfer plate 5. The output end of the third motor 31 is connected to a third transmission shaft 32. The length direction of the third transmission shaft 32 is consistent with that of the second transmission shaft 24. The end of the third transmission shaft 32 is fixedly connected to a pin. It should be noted that the pin is existing technology and is relatively common. Those skilled in the art should be clear about its structure, principle and usage, etc., and will not be described in detail here.
[0017] Working principle: When in use, the large bentonite 36 is placed on the base 1 with the help of a machine; Then, the first motor 7 is started. The output end of the first motor 7 drives the first transmission shaft 8 to rotate. The rotation of the first transmission shaft 8 drives the first bevel gear 9 to rotate. The rotation of the first bevel gear 9 drives the second bevel gear 12 to rotate. The rotation of the second bevel gear 12 drives the first rotating shaft 11 to rotate. The rotation of the first rotating shaft 11 drives the sprocket 14 connected to the first rotating shaft 11 to rotate. The rotation of the sprocket 14 drives the chain 15 to move. The movement of the chain 15 drives another sprocket 14 to rotate. The rotation of the other sprocket 14 drives the second rotating shaft 13 connected to it to rotate. The rotation of the second rotating shaft 13 drives the jacking auxiliary block 16 to move toward the large bentonite 36 and pushes the jacking block 3 to abut against the large bentonite 36, and makes the large bentonite 36 abut against the force-bearing block 33. The rotation of the first drive shaft 8 simultaneously drives the two baffle auxiliary blocks 20 to move closer to each other, thereby driving the two baffles 4 to approach and abut against the large bentonite 36; the operation of the above-mentioned moving mechanism realizes the clamping of the large bentonite 36.
[0018] Then start the cutting machine 2, which cuts the portion of the large bentonite 36 that extends out of the base 1.
[0019] Then, the two second electric telescopic rods 26 are activated, and the telescopic ends of the two second electric telescopic rods 26 extend so that the corresponding connecting shafts 28 abut against the cut bentonite 37. Then start the second motor 23. The output of the second motor 23 drives the second transmission shaft 24 to rotate. The rotation of the second transmission shaft 24 causes the slider 6 to move toward the transfer plate 5, thereby moving the slider 6 and the cut bentonite 37 to the side of the transfer plate 5 facing the base 1. At this time, the bottom of the fixed plate 25 abuts against the top of the corresponding third electric telescopic rod 29, and then the third electric telescopic rod 29 is activated. The telescopic end of the third electric telescopic rod 29 extends and pushes the fixed plate 25 vertically upward in the second slide groove 30, thereby driving the cut bentonite 37 away from the slider 6. Then start the third motor 31. The output end of the third motor 31 drives the third transmission shaft 32 to rotate. The rotation of the third transmission shaft 32 causes the rotating part 502 of the transfer plate 5 to rotate downward, so that the cut bentonite 37 rotates downward around the connecting shaft 28. Finally, the second electric telescopic rod 26 is activated. The telescopic ends of the two second electric telescopic rods 26 retract and disengage from the cut bentonite 37, so the cut bentonite 37 slides down along the inclined transfer plate 5.
[0020] Then, the first electric telescopic rod 19 is activated. The telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 19 extends and pushes the remaining large bentonite 36 close to and abuts against the force block 33, causing the slider 6 to move in front of the force block 33 for reset. The cutting work is repeated multiple times in a cycle.
[0021] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
