This invention relates to the field of bentonite mixing technology and discloses an organic bentonite production apparatus and process. The production apparatus includes a frame, a material spreading mechanism, and a conveying roller. A loading bucket is placed on the conveying roller. A driving mechanism and a lifting mechanism are connected to the frame. The driving mechanism drives the conveying roller to rotate to convey the loading bucket, and the lifting mechanism drives the loading bucket to move up and down.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of bentonite mixing technology, specifically relating to an organic bentonite production device and process. Background Technology

[0002] Bentonite is a non-metallic mineral formed by mixing various materials. Due to its excellent adsorption, expansion and binding properties, it is widely used in many fields such as coatings, drilling, metallurgy and environmental protection. The quality of its finished product is closely related to the uniformity of the mixing of each component.

[0003] Currently, the industry commonly uses a centralized mixing process in mixing tanks for the mixing and loading of bentonite components. This involves first mechanically mixing the different bentonite components in a mixing tank, and then conveying the mixture to packaging bags or filling barrels for further packaging. However, this traditional process has significant technical drawbacks in actual production applications, affecting the performance of the finished bentonite product. The mixing in the mixing tank only achieves preliminary mixing of the components and cannot achieve deep homogenization of the material. During subsequent conveying and loading, due to the differences in particle density among the different bentonite components, significant stratification and segregation occur. Denser particles tend to sink to the bottom during conveying and loading, while less dense particles float on the surface of the mixture. This results in uneven component proportions in the final bentonite product, disrupting the uniformity of the mixture and significantly reducing the application performance of the finished product. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a bentonite production device with a simple structure and reasonable design in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0005] The present invention achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions: The first aspect of the present invention provides an organic bentonite production apparatus, including a frame, a material spreading mechanism and a conveying roller, wherein a material loading barrel is placed on the conveying roller, and a driving mechanism and a lifting mechanism are connected to the frame, wherein the driving mechanism is used to drive the conveying roller to rotate to convey the material loading barrel. The material laying mechanism includes an outer ring sleeve, an inner sleeve, an outer laying tube, and an inner laying tube. The upper ends of the outer and inner laying tubes are inlet ports, and the lower ends are outlet ports. The outer ring sleeve is fitted over the outer side of the inner sleeve. The inlet port of the outer laying tube is rotatably fitted onto the outer wall of the outer ring sleeve. The inner laying tube is located inside the outer laying tube. The inlet port of the inner laying tube extends between the outer ring sleeve and the inner sleeve. The outlet port of the inner laying tube extends to the outside of the outer laying tube and is arranged in a straight line with the outer laying tube. The outer ring sleeve... Both the outer and inner sleeves have inlets, which are used to inject different materials into the outer and inner sleeves respectively. The outlet ports of the outer and inner sleeves are equipped with baffles to restrict the flow of materials in the outer and inner sleeves. The outer sleeve is connected to a rotary drive assembly. When the rotary drive assembly drives the outer and inner sleeves to rotate, the lifting mechanism drives the loading bucket to move down so that the two materials in the outer and inner sleeves are spirally stacked and mixed before falling into the loading bucket.

[0006] As a further optimization of the present invention, the lifting mechanism includes a vertical drive component and multiple sets of lifting plates. The vertical drive component is fixedly connected to the frame, and the drive end of the vertical drive component is fixedly connected to a mounting plate. The multiple sets of lifting plates are arranged in a linear array and fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate. The conveying roller is composed of multiple sets of rollers, and there is a gap between every two sets of rollers. The multiple sets of lifting plates pass through the corresponding gaps.

[0007] As a further optimization of the present invention, the rotary drive assembly includes a drive motor, a transmission gear, and a ring gear. The ring gear is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the outer laying cylinder. A fixing plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outer ring sleeve. The drive motor is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixing plate. The transmission gear is fixedly connected to the drive end of the drive motor. The ring gear meshes with the transmission gear.

[0008] As a further optimization of the present invention, a centering mechanism is fixedly connected to the frame. The centering mechanism includes a centering drive assembly and multiple sets of centering plates. The inner wall of each set of centering plates has multiple sets of rollers that rotate. The centering drive assembly is used to simultaneously drive multiple sets of centering plates to approach the loading barrel, so that the rollers fit against the surface of the loading barrel.

[0009] As a further optimization of the present invention, the centering drive assembly includes a rotary drive component and a circular ring plate. The circular ring plate is rotatably connected to the surface of the frame. The rotary drive component drives the circular ring plate to rotate. Vertical rods corresponding to multiple sets of centering plates are fixedly connected to the frame. Two sets of parallel pressing rods are rotatably connected to the surface of each set of vertical rods. The ends of the two sets of pressing rods away from the vertical rods are rotatably connected to the outer surface of the centering plate. A transmission rod is rotatably connected to the lower end of the pressing rods. The surface of the circular ring plate has arc grooves corresponding to multiple sets of centering plates. Limiting blocks corresponding to multiple sets of arc grooves are fixedly connected to the frame. The surface of the limiting blocks has sliding grooves. A slider is slidably connected in the sliding grooves. A sliding rod is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the slider. The lower end of the sliding rod extends through the sliding groove into the arc groove. The end of the transmission rod away from the pressing rod is rotatably connected to the slider on the corresponding side.

[0010] As a further optimization of the present invention, a ring cover is fixedly connected to the frame. The upper and lower ends of the ring cover are both open. The diameter of the lower opening of the ring cover is larger than the diameter of the upper opening of the ring cover. The inner diameter of the upper opening of the ring cover is the same as the outer diameter of the loading barrel.

[0011] As a further optimization of the present invention, the rotary drive component includes a drive rod and two sets of limiting bars connected to the inner wall of the annular plate, with a limiting groove formed between the two sets of limiting bars. The drive rod is connected to the mounting plate and is located in the limiting groove. The drive rod cooperates with the limiting groove to drive the annular plate to rotate.

[0012] As a further optimization of the present invention, the drive rod includes a linear drive segment, both ends of which are connected to inclined drive segments, and the end of the inclined drive segment away from the linear drive segment is connected to a fixed segment.

[0013] As a further optimization of the present invention, grooves are provided on the surfaces of the two sets of outer laying cylinders and inner laying cylinders near the discharge port, and adjustment components are provided at the two sets of grooves. The adjustment components include adjustment parts and adjustment plates, and the adjustment plates are slidably connected in the grooves. The adjusting component includes a mounting frame with a spiral rod passing through it. A control plate is rotatably connected to the lower end of the spiral rod. The control plate slides along the surface of the mounting frame. An inclined groove is formed on the surface of the adjusting plate. An inclined plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the control plate. The lower end of the inclined plate extends into the inclined groove. The mounting frames in the two sets of adjusting components are respectively connected to the surfaces of the outer laying cylinder and the inner laying cylinder near the discharge port.

[0014] A second aspect of the present invention provides a process for producing organic bentonite, employing an organic bentonite production apparatus as described above, comprising the following steps: S1. Place the empty filling bucket on the conveyor roller, start the drive mechanism to drive the conveyor roller to rotate, and transport the filling bucket to the position below the spreading mechanism; S2. Open the adjusting device to adjust the discharge volume of the outer laying cylinder and the inner laying cylinder discharge port; S3. Start the lifting mechanism to lift the loading barrel. During the lifting process, the drive rod, in conjunction with the limiting groove of the centering mechanism, drives the ring plate to rotate. Through the linkage of the transmission rod and the pressing rod, the roller assembly of multiple centering plates is made to fit against the surface of the loading barrel to complete the centering of the loading barrel. When the discharge ports of the outer laying cylinder and the inner laying cylinder are close to the inner bottom of the loading barrel, the centering plate moves away from the loading barrel, and the loading barrel stops moving upward. S4. Start the rotary drive assembly to drive the outer laying cylinder and the inner laying cylinder to rotate synchronously. During the rotation, the discharge port of the laying cylinder is staggered from the baffle plate. At the same time, the two bentonite components are put into the feed ports of the outer ring sleeve and the inner sleeve respectively, and fall into the loading bucket through the discharge ports of the outer laying cylinder and the inner laying cylinder. S5. While the laying cylinder is rotating and feeding material, control the lifting mechanism to drive the loading barrel to move slowly and uniformly downwards, so that the two bentonite components are stacked in layers in the loading barrel in a spiral cross pattern until the loading barrel reaches the preset loading amount. Then stop feeding and turn off the rotating drive component. The laying cylinder outlet port and the baffle plate are repositioned to block the material flow. S6. Start the lifting mechanism to move the loading barrel down onto the conveyor roller, and then start the drive mechanism to drive the conveyor roller to rotate, transporting the loaded barrel to the unloading area, thus completing one organic bentonite production loading operation.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By using the rotating feeding of the inner and outer double-layer laying cylinders in conjunction with the uniform downward movement of the loading bucket, the two bentonite components falling into the loading bucket are stacked in a spiral cross pattern, resulting in a more uniform mixing of the two bentonite components. This avoids the sinking and floating stratification phenomena that occur during the conveying and loading process due to the difference in particle density of different components. The stacked material can be further naturally and uniformly mixed again when poured out for subsequent use, which greatly improves the component uniformity and performance of the organic bentonite product.

[0018] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following specific embodiments are only used to further illustrate the present application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content.

[0019] Example 1;

[0020] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The structure shown is that of an organic bentonite production device, including a frame 1, a material spreading mechanism 5 and a conveying roller 2. A material loading barrel 3 is placed on the conveying roller 2. A drive mechanism 7 and a lifting mechanism 4 are connected to the frame 1. The drive mechanism 7 is used to drive the conveying roller 2 to rotate to convey the material loading barrel 3, and the lifting mechanism 4 is used to drive the material loading barrel 3 to move up and down. refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The structure shown includes a material spreading mechanism 5 comprising an outer ring sleeve 51, an inner sleeve 52, an outer spreading cylinder 53, and an inner spreading cylinder 54. The upper ends of the outer spreading cylinder 53 and the inner spreading cylinder 54 are inlet ports, and the lower ends are outlet ports. The outer ring sleeve 51 is fitted over the outer side of the inner sleeve 52. The inlet port of the outer spreading cylinder 53 is rotatably fitted onto the outer wall of the outer ring sleeve 51. The inner spreading cylinder 54 is located inside the outer spreading cylinder 53. The inlet port of the inner spreading cylinder 54 extends between the outer ring sleeve 51 and the inner sleeve 52, and the outlet port of the inner spreading cylinder 54 extends to the outside of the outer spreading cylinder 53 and is arranged in a straight line with the outer spreading cylinder 53. Both the outer sleeve 51 and the inner sleeve 52 have inlet ports. The two sets of inlets are used to inject different materials into the outer sleeve 53 and the inner sleeve 54 respectively. The outlet ports of the outer sleeve 53 and the inner sleeve 54 are provided with baffles 13 to restrict the flow of materials in the outer sleeve 53 and the inner sleeve 54. The outer sleeve 51 is connected to a rotary drive assembly 8. When the rotary drive assembly 8 drives the outer sleeve 53 and the inner sleeve 54 to rotate, the lifting mechanism 4 drives the loading barrel 3 to move down so that the two materials in the outer sleeve 53 and the inner sleeve 54 are spirally and cross-stacked and mixed before falling into the loading barrel 3.

[0021] Specifically, the outer ring sleeve 51 and the inner sleeve 52 are both fixedly connected to the frame 1. The discharge ports of the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54 are both in the shape of "I" and located on the same straight line. The outer ring sleeve 51 is set in a circular ring and its cross-section is in the shape of "n".

[0022] In practical use, the loading bucket 3 is first placed on the conveying roller 2, and the driving mechanism 7 drives the conveying roller 2 to rotate to transport the loading bucket 3 to below the spreading mechanism 5. Then, the lifting mechanism 4 drives the loading bucket 3 to move upward until the loading bucket 3 covers the outside of the outer spreading cylinder 53. At this time, the discharge ports of the outer spreading cylinder 53 and the inner spreading cylinder 54 are close to the inner bottom of the loading bucket 3. Then, the rotary drive assembly 8 is started to drive the outer spreading cylinder 53 and the inner spreading cylinder 54 to rotate. Then, the different components of bentonite are injected into the outer ring sleeve 51 and the inner sleeve 52 respectively from the two sets of inlets. As different materials fall into the loading hopper 3 from the outer ring sleeve 51 and the inner sleeve 52 through the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54 respectively, the lifting mechanism 4 is activated to drive the loading hopper 3 to move downward. As the loading hopper 3 moves downward and the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54 rotate to feed the materials, the two different materials are stacked in a spiral cross pattern, thus mixing together. This arrangement allows the two materials to be further mixed when the loading hopper 3, which is filled with materials, needs to be poured out for use. The two different materials are different components of bentonite.

[0023] Among them, the baffle plate 13 is arranged on the outer ring sleeve 51. Specifically, the baffle plate 13 is in a "U" shape. A plurality of connecting plates 18 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outer ring sleeve 51 near the outside. The surfaces of the plurality of connecting plates 18 are commonly connected with a fixed ring plate 16 through connecting columns 15. Both ends of the baffle plate 13 are connected to the surface of the fixed ring plate 16.

[0024] It should be noted that in the state where the discharge ports of the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54 cannot discharge materials, the inner bottom surface of the baffle plate 13 abuts against the discharge ports of the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54, thereby restricting the flow of materials in the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54. When the rotary drive assembly 8 drives the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54 to rotate, the discharge ports of the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54 will be错开 from the baffle plate 13. At this time, the materials in the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54 can flow out from the discharge ports.

[0025] It should be further noted that an upper sealing plate 19 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the fixed ring plate 16. The lower surface of the upper sealing plate 19 is fixedly connected with a sealing sleeve 20. The sealing sleeve 20 covers the outside of the outer ring sleeve 51. The lower end of the above-mentioned sealing sleeve 20 is connected with a lower sealing plate 21. The sealing sleeve 20 is arranged to be foldable and telescopic. In actual use, in the initial state, the lower sealing plate 21 overlaps on the upper end of the ring cover 17. As the charging bucket 3 rises, the edge of the charging bucket 3 abuts against the lower surface of the lower sealing plate 21 and drives the lower sealing plate 21 to move upward, thereby causing the sealing sleeve 20 to fold. When the charging bucket 3 moves downward, due to the gravity of the lower sealing plate 21 itself, the lower sealing plate 21 will also abut against the upper end edge of the charging bucket 3 and move downward with it, thereby ensuring the sealing state during charging.

[0026] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown in the partial structure, the jacking mechanism 4 includes a vertical driving member 41 and a plurality of jacking plates 43. The vertical driving member 41 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. The driving end of the vertical driving member 41 is fixedly connected with a mounting plate 42. The plurality of jacking plates 43 are arranged in a linear array and fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 42. The conveying roller 2 is composed of a plurality of rollers. A certain gap is reserved between every two rollers. The plurality of jacking plates 43 respectively pass through the corresponding gaps.

[0027] It should be noted that the vertical driving member 41 is any mechanical structure that can drive the jacking plate 43 to move vertically. Specifically, it can be a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod, a cylinder, etc. In this embodiment, the vertical driving member 41 is a scissor lift mechanism.

[0028] In actual use, the vertical driving member 41 drives the mounting plate 42 to move upward. After the jacking plate 43 passes through the gap, the charging bucket 3 that has moved below the paving mechanism 5 is gradually jacked up.

[0029] It should be further explained that the drive mechanism 7 can be any mechanical structure capable of simultaneously driving multiple sets of rollers to rotate. Specifically, it can be a motor working in conjunction with a chain or synchronous belt to drive multiple rollers to rotate synchronously. Since this mechanical structure is an existing one, it will not be described in detail in this embodiment. refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The structure shown includes a rotary drive assembly 8 comprising a drive motor 81, a transmission gear 82, and a ring gear 83. The ring gear 83 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the outer laying cylinder 53. A fixing plate 14 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outer ring sleeve 51 on the outer side. The drive motor 81 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixing plate 14. The transmission gear 82 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the drive motor 81. The ring gear 83 meshes with the transmission gear 82.

[0030] It should be noted that the drive motor 81 can be a stepper motor, servo motor, etc. In actual use, the drive motor 81 drives the transmission gear 82 to rotate, the transmission gear 82 drives the ring gear 83 and the outer laying cylinder 53 connected to the ring gear 83 to rotate, and the outer laying cylinder 53 drives the inner laying cylinder 54 to rotate.

[0031] It should be noted that the outer ring sleeve 51 and the inner sleeve 52 are connected to the feed inlet at the corresponding positions. The two sets of feed channels 11 are connected to the receiving grooves 12 at the ends away from the outer ring sleeve 51 and the inner sleeve 52. In actual use, the two components of bentonite are fed into the two sets of receiving grooves 12 respectively, and then transported to the outer ring sleeve 51 and the inner sleeve 52 through the two sets of feed channels 11.

[0032] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The structure shown includes a centering mechanism 6 fixedly connected to the frame 1. The centering mechanism 6 includes a centering drive assembly and multiple sets of centering plates 61. The inner wall of each set of centering plates 61 rotates with multiple sets of rollers 62. The centering drive assembly is used to simultaneously drive multiple sets of centering plates 61 to approach the loading barrel 3, so that the rollers 62 fit against the surface of the loading barrel 3.

[0033] Furthermore, the centering drive assembly includes a rotary drive component and an annular plate 64. The annular plate 64 is rotatably connected to the surface of the frame 1. The rotary drive component drives the annular plate 64 to rotate. Vertical rods 66, corresponding to multiple sets of centering plates 61, are fixedly connected to the frame 1. Two sets of parallel pressing rods 67 are rotatably connected to the surface of each set of vertical rods 66. The ends of the two sets of pressing rods 67 away from the vertical rods 66 are rotatably connected to the outer surface of the centering plate 61. A transmission rod 68 is rotatably connected to the surface of the lower pressing rod 67. The surface of the annular plate 64 is provided with arc grooves 69 corresponding to multiple sets of centering plates 61. The frame 1 is fixedly connected with limiting blocks 610 corresponding to multiple sets of arc grooves 69. The surface of the limiting block 610 is provided with a sliding groove 611. A slider 613 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 611. A sliding rod 612 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the slider 613. The lower end of the sliding rod 612 extends through the sliding groove 611 into the arc groove 69. The end of the transmission rod 68 away from the pressing rod 67 is rotatably connected to the slider 613 on the corresponding side.

[0034] Furthermore, a fixing block 614 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the annular plate 64, and a telescopic rod 615 is rotatably connected to the frame 1. The end of the telescopic rod 615 away from the frame 1 is rotatably connected to the fixing block 614. Specifically, the telescopic rod 615 includes a movable rod and a fixed rod. One end of the movable rod extends into the fixed rod and slides along the inner wall of the fixed rod. The end of the movable rod away from the fixed rod is rotatably connected to the fixing block 614, and the end of the fixed rod away from the movable rod is rotatably connected to the frame 1.

[0035] refer to Figure 4 As shown in the partial structure, a ring cover 17 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. Both the upper and lower ends of the ring cover 17 are open. The diameter of the lower opening of the ring cover 17 is larger than the diameter of the upper opening of the ring cover 17. The inner diameter of the upper opening of the ring cover 17 is the same as the outer diameter of the loading barrel 3.

[0036] It should be noted that the centering mechanism 6 is used for the initial centering of the filling barrel 3, so that the filling barrel 3 is located within the opening range of the lower side of the ring cover 17. In actual use, while the lifting mechanism 4 drives the filling barrel 3 to move upward, the rotary drive is activated to drive the annular plate 64 to rotate. With the cooperation of the arc groove 69 and the slide rod 612, the slide rod 612 drives the slider 613 to move linearly along the slide groove 611. With the further cooperation of the transmission rod 68 and the pressing rod 67, multiple sets of centering plates 61 drive the rollers 62 to simultaneously adhere to the surface of the filling barrel 3, thereby adjusting the position of the filling barrel 3.

[0037] In this embodiment, four sets are provided for the middle plate 61.

[0038] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7The structure shown includes a rotating drive component comprising a drive rod 63 and two sets of limiting posts 65 connected to the inner wall of the annular plate 64. A limiting groove is formed between the two sets of limiting posts 65. The drive rod 63 is connected to the mounting plate 42 and is located within the limiting groove. The drive rod 63, in conjunction with the limiting groove, drives the annular plate 64 to rotate.

[0039] Furthermore, the drive rod 63 includes a linear drive segment 631, with inclined drive segments 632 connected to both ends of the linear drive segment 631, and fixed segments 633 connected to both ends of the two inclined drive segments 632 away from the linear drive segment 631.

[0040] It should be noted that before the lifting plate 43 contacts the filling barrel 3, the upper fixed section 633 of the drive rod 63 is located in the limiting groove. During the process of the lifting mechanism 4 driving the mounting plate 42 and moving the lifting plate 43 upward, the upper inclined drive section 632 of the drive rod 63 moves into the limiting groove. At this time, the inclined drive section 632 cooperates with the limiting groove to drive the annular plate 64 to rotate, so that the centering plate 61 drives the roller 62 to approach the filling barrel 3. Until the linear drive section 631 moves into the limiting groove, the roller 62 presses against the surface of the filling barrel 3. As the mounting plate 42 continues to move upward, when the lower inclined drive section 632 moves into the limiting groove, the centering plate 61 drives the roller 62 away from the filling barrel 3. Until the lower fixed section 633 moves into the limiting groove, the centering plate 61 stops moving, so that the roller 62 remains away from the filling barrel 3.

[0041] In other embodiments, the rotary drive can be any mechanical structure capable of driving the annular plate 64 to rotate. Specifically, several sets of toothed grooves can be opened on the outer side of the annular plate 64, and the gear can be driven to rotate by a motor. The gear is set to mesh with the toothed groove, and the gear and toothed groove drive the annular plate 64 to rotate. Alternatively, an electric push rod can be set to drive the rack to move linearly, and the rack is set to mesh with the toothed groove, and the rack and toothed groove meshing drive the annular plate 64 to rotate.

[0042] refer to Figure 8 As shown in the partial structure, grooves are provided on the surfaces of the two sets of outer laying cylinders 53 and inner laying cylinders 54 near the discharge port. Adjustment components are provided at the two sets of grooves. The adjustment components include adjustment parts 9 and adjustment plates 10. The adjustment plates 10 are slidably connected in the grooves. The adjusting component 9 includes a mounting frame 91, on which a spiral rod 92 passes. The lower end of the spiral rod 92 is rotatably connected to a control plate 93. The control plate 93 slides along the surface of the mounting frame 91. An inclined groove is formed on the surface of the adjusting plate 10. An inclined plate 94 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the control plate 93. The lower end of the inclined plate 94 extends into the inclined groove. The mounting frames 91 in the two sets of adjusting components 9 are respectively connected to the surfaces of the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54 near the discharge port.

[0043] In practical use, rotating the screw rod 92 can drive the control plate 93 to move up and down along the surface of the mounting frame 91. When the control plate 93 moves down, with the cooperation of the inclined plate 94 and the inclined groove, it will drive the adjusting plate 10 to move out of the laying cylinder (referring to the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54). When the control plate 93 moves up, it will drive the adjusting plate 10 to move into the laying cylinder, thereby controlling the size of the internal space of the laying cylinder near the discharge port, thereby adjusting the discharge amount of the discharge port.

[0044] Example 2;

[0045] This embodiment provides an organic bentonite production process, implemented using an organic bentonite production apparatus described in Embodiment 1, including the following steps: S1. Place the empty filling barrel 3 on the conveying roller 2 of the production device, start the drive mechanism 7 to drive the conveying roller 2 to rotate, and convey the filling barrel 3 to the position below the spreading mechanism 5. S2. Rotate the screw rod 92 of the adjusting component 9, and adjust the discharge amount of the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54 through the cooperation of the control plate 93, the inclined plate 94, the adjusting plate 10 and the inclined groove. S3. Start the lifting mechanism 4. The vertical drive component 41 drives the mounting plate 42 to move the lifting plate 43 upward. The lifting plate 43 passes through the gap of the conveying roller 2 and lifts the loading barrel 3. During the lifting process, the drive rod 63 cooperates with the limiting groove of the centering mechanism 6 to drive the ring plate 64 to rotate. Through the linkage of the transmission rod 68 and the pressing rod 67, the rollers 62 of multiple sets of centering plates 61 are attached to the surface of the loading barrel 3 to complete the centering of the loading barrel 3. When the discharge ports of the outer laying cylinder 53 and the inner laying cylinder 54 approach the inner bottom of the loading barrel 3, the centering plate 61 moves away from the loading barrel 3. At this time, the loading barrel 3 stops moving upward. S4. Start the rotary drive assembly 8. Drive motor 81 drives ring gear 83 to rotate through transmission gear 82, thereby driving outer laying cylinder 53 and inner laying cylinder 54 to rotate synchronously. During the rotation, the discharge port of the laying cylinder is offset from the baffle plate 13. At the same time, the two bentonite components are put into the feed ports of outer ring sleeve 51 and inner sleeve 52 respectively, and fall into the loading barrel 3 through the discharge ports of outer laying cylinder 53 and inner laying cylinder 54. S5. While the laying cylinder is rotating and feeding material, the lifting mechanism 4 is controlled to drive the loading barrel 3 to move down slowly and at a constant speed, so that the two bentonite components are stacked in layers in the loading barrel 3 in a spiral cross pattern until the loading barrel 3 reaches the preset loading amount. Then, the feeding is stopped and the rotating drive component 8 is turned off. The outlet port of the laying cylinder is repositioned with the baffle plate 13 to block the material flow. S6. Start the lifting mechanism 4 to move the loading barrel 3 down onto the conveying roller 2, and then start the drive mechanism 7 to drive the conveying roller 2 to rotate, so as to transport the loading barrel 3, which has been filled, to the unloading area, thus completing one organic bentonite production loading operation.
