DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the application, rather than all the embodiments of the application. Based on the embodiments in the application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the application.
[0026] The application discloses a kind of foamed extinguishing material mixing and stirring devices, as shown in Figures 1-4As shown, including kettle body 1, kettle body 1 surface is respectively provided with feed inlet 12 and discharge outlet 13, feed inlet 12 is used for adding raw materials of foam extinguishing material, when adding from feed inlet 12, the kettle body 1 is not in the state of vacuumizing, but adding needs to be stirred and then vacuumizing, the discharge outlet 13 is used for discharging the extinguishing material after the mixing of stirring is completed, the valve of feed inlet 12 and discharge outlet 13 is sealed, the sealing property is guaranteed, the kettle body 1 is installed with stirring assembly for stirring extinguishing material, further including fixed seat 3 and sealing block 32 which can be mutually embedded, the two can form sealing after being tightly embedded, the fixed seat 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of kettle body 1, the surface of fixed seat 3 is provided with synchronous hole 31 matched with sealing block 32, when the fixed seat 3 and sealing block 32 are tightly adhered, the kettle body 1 is divided into two independent chambers by fixed seat 3, and in the conventional state, the fixed seat 3 and the sealing block 32 are not in contact, and the two are separated, at this time, the kettle body 1 is an integral environment, and the whole is vacuumized when vacuumizing.
[0027] The feeding assembly is arranged on the top of the kettle body 1, the feeding assembly includes a feeding pipe 34 arranged on the top of the kettle body 1, the feeding pipe 34 is a hollow pipe, and the raw materials to be added in batches can be added through the center of the feeding pipe 34, the bottom of the feeding pipe 34 penetrates the sealing block 32 and is fixedly connected with the fixed seat 3, the sealing block 32 is limited to slide on the surface of the feeding pipe 34, the top of the feeding pipe 34 is threadedly connected with a top cover 341, a sealing gasket is arranged at the threaded connection position of the top cover 341 and the feeding pipe 34 to ensure the sealing effect, the surface of the feeding pipe 34 is provided with a material passing hole, the raw materials can fall out of the feeding pipe 34 through the material passing hole and fall on the surface of the sealing block 32, and then fall into the edge position of the fixed seat 3, and after the sealing block 32 and the fixed seat 3 are separated, the materials fall into the extinguishing material at the bottom through the synchronous hole 31 for feeding, the top of the kettle body 1 is provided with a main pipe 41 for vacuumizing, the main pipe 41 is connected with an external vacuumizing device such as a vacuum pump, after the vacuum pump extracts the air in the kettle body 1 through the main pipe 41, a vacuum environment is formed in the kettle body 1, it should be noted that the main pipe 41 is arranged on the top of the kettle body 1, and the feed inlet 12 is arranged below the fixed seat 3, further including an adjusting assembly for reciprocating the sealing block 32 on the surface of the feeding pipe 34.
[0028] Specifically, when other raw materials need to be added in batches during the mixing process of the extinguishing material, the sealing block 32 is moved down on the surface of the feeding pipe 34 by adjusting the component and fitted into the surface of the fixed seat 3, blocking the synchronization hole 31 and forming two independent chambers, upper and lower, separated by the fixed seat 3. Then, the air pressure environment of the upper chamber of the fixed seat 3 is restored by the main pipe 41. Since the synchronization hole 31 is blocked, the lower chamber of the fixed seat 3 is still in a vacuum environment and is continuously stirred by the mixing component. After the upper chamber of the fixed seat 3 returns to a stable environment equivalent to the external air pressure, the top cover 341 is unscrewed to add the material. Add the required raw material into pipe 34, and then tighten the top cover 341. During this process, the raw material falls out through the material passage and rolls off the arc-shaped surface of the sealing block 32, distributing itself around the perimeter of the fixing seat 3. After the top cover 341 is sealed, continue to evacuate the upper chamber of the fixing seat 3 through the main pipe 41, and move the sealing block 32 upward by adjusting the component. This allows the raw material to fall evenly into the extinguishing material at the bottom through several synchronous holes 31, completing the feeding process. During the feeding process, the extinguishing material can be kept in a vacuum state to avoid increasing air bubbles and affecting the quality of the finished product.
[0029] The regulating assembly includes a connecting pipe 33 sleeved on the surface of the feeding pipe 34, the connecting pipe 33 being fixedly connected to the feeding pipe 34, the connecting pipe 33 being fixedly connected to the vessel body 1, and the connection between the connecting pipe 33 and the vessel body 1 being sealed. An air chamber 331 is provided inside the connecting pipe 33. A movable cylinder 321 is fixedly connected to the top of the sealing block 32. A through hole 322 adapted to the material passage hole is provided on the surface of the movable cylinder 321, which facilitates the material to enter the surface of the sealing block 32 through the material passage hole and the through hole 322. The movable cylinder 321 slides in a sealed manner within the air chamber 331. A secondary pipe 42 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting pipe 33 outside the vessel body 1. The secondary pipe 42 is connected to the main pipe 41 via a reversing valve 4. The two output ends of the reversing valve 4 are fixedly connected to the main pipe 41 and the secondary pipe 42, respectively. The input end of the reversing valve 4 is connected to an external vacuum device.
[0030] Specifically, by adding the reversing valve 4, when feeding is required, the reversing valve 4 is first switched to the secondary pipe 42 and a certain air pressure is applied. By increasing the air pressure, the movable cylinder 321 in the air chamber 331 is pressed downward, and then the movable cylinder 321 drives the sealing block 32 to move downward until it is engaged with the fixed seat 3. Then, the reversing valve 4 is switched to the main pipe 41, which can pressurize the upper chamber of the fixed seat 3 in the vessel body 1. During the pressurization process, affected by the air pressure difference, the sealing block 32 will be further pressed tightly against the surface of the fixed seat 3, forming a tighter seal. After feeding is completed, the circumferential valve is first switched to the main pipe 41 to depressurize, and then switched to the secondary pipe 42 to depressurize. The air pressure in the air chamber 331 decreases, which will drive the movable cylinder 321 to move upward synchronously, thereby separating the sealing block 32 from the fixed seat 3, which facilitates the passage of raw materials.
[0031] Furthermore, the movable cylinder 321 is connected to the connecting pipe 33 via a tension spring 332. The tension spring 332 can be stretched when the movable cylinder 321 moves downward, and then pulls the movable cylinder 321 back to its original position in time through its own elastic deformation.
[0032] The fixed base 3 has several liquid passage channels 311. The upper end of the liquid passage channel 311 is connected to the inside of the feeding pipe 34, and the lower end of the liquid passage channel 311 is connected to the inside of the vessel body 1. The bottom of the sealing block 32 is fixedly connected with several baffles 323 for blocking the liquid passage channels 311. The surface of the fixed base 3 has several slots that are adapted to the baffles 323. When the baffles 323 are inserted into the slots and blocked into the liquid passage channels 311, the sealing block 32 is tightly attached to the fixed base 3. The inner wall of the feeding pipe 34 is fixedly connected with a screen 342. The diameter of the screen 342 is selected according to the particle size of different solid raw materials. The diameter of the screen 342 should be smaller than the particle size of the solid raw materials so that the solid raw materials cannot pass through, while the liquid raw materials can directly pass through the screen 342 and enter the liquid passage channel 311 downwards.
[0033] Specifically, by adding different types of raw materials, solid particles are sieved through screen 342 and roll onto the surface of sealing block 32 through the feed hole and through hole 322. Then, when sealing block 32 separates from fixed seat 3, it falls through synchronization hole 31. Liquid raw materials pass through the sieve holes on the surface of screen 342 and fall vertically to the bottom of feed pipe 34, entering liquid channel 311. Because sealing block 32 is tightly fitted with synchronization hole 31, stop block 323 blocks liquid channel 311. This ensures the independence of the upper and lower chambers of the fixed base 3 and the stability of the vacuum environment in the bottom chamber. When both the upper and lower chambers are restored to a vacuum state, the separation of the sealing block 32 from the fixed base 3 will cause the baffle block 323 to detach from the liquid passage 311 and open the space of the liquid passage 311, allowing the liquid raw material to pass through the liquid passage 311 and fall into the fire extinguishing material at the bottom for stirring. By setting the liquid passage 311, solid raw materials and liquid raw materials are added separately, ensuring the isolation of the raw materials before addition.
[0034] The sealing block 32 has several guide plates 324 fixedly connected to its surface. The guide plates 324 are used to divert the raw material so that it is spread out more evenly. This way, the raw material can fall more evenly into the fire extinguishing material at the bottom when it falls, improving the mixing uniformity and mixing efficiency.
[0035] The stirring assembly includes a stirring shaft 2 rotatably connected to the bottom of the vessel body 1, a plurality of stirring blades 21 fixedly connected to the surface of the stirring shaft 2, and a driving component for driving the stirring shaft 2 to rotate.
[0036] The driving component includes a drive motor 22 fixedly connected to the bottom of the vessel body 1. The bottom of the stirring shaft 2 passes through the vessel body 1, and the passage between the stirring shaft 2 and the vessel body 1 is sealed. A synchronous pulley 222 is fixedly connected thereto. The output end of the drive motor 22 is connected to the synchronous pulley 222 via a synchronous belt 221.
[0037] Specifically, the output of the drive motor 22 is driven by the synchronous belt 221 to rotate the synchronous pulley 222, which in turn drives the stirring shaft 2 to rotate, so that the stirring shaft 2 drives the stirring blade 21 to stir the fire extinguishing material.
[0038] The bottom of the vessel body 1 is equipped with several support legs 11, which support the vessel body 1.
