[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by technicians in the technical field of the present invention; the terms used in this specification are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. For example, the directions or positions indicated by terms such as "length", "width", "up", "down", "left", "right", "front", "back", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", and "outside" are based on the directions or positions shown in the drawings, which are only for the convenience of description and cannot be understood as limitations on the present technical solution.
[0029] The terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the specification and claims of the present utility model and the above-mentioned drawings are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions; the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present utility model or the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order. "Multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0030] In the specification and claims of the utility model and the above-mentioned drawings, when an element is referred to as being "fixed on" or "mounted on" or "disposed on" or "connected to" another element, it may be directly or indirectly located on the other element. For example, when an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it may be directly or indirectly connected to the other element.
[0031] In addition, the reference to "embodiment" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
[0032] like Figures 1-2 The figure shows a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the passive stirring device provided by the utility model, wherein: Figure 1 For the main view, Figure 2 It is a left view, in which the passive stirring device includes a chute shell 10, the upper and lower ends of which are both opened to form a feed port 20 and a discharge port 30, a stirring structure 40 is transversely arranged in the chute shell 10, the stirring structure 40 includes a stirring shaft 41, both ends of the stirring shaft 41 are respectively fixed on two opposite side surfaces of the chute shell 10, a plurality of stirring rods 42 are arranged on the stirring shaft 41, and a guide plate 60 is arranged in the chute shell 10 near the feed port 20, and the plane where the guide plate 60 is located is inclined toward the direction of the stirring shaft 41, so that the material flow 50 passes through the guide plate 60 and falls onto the stirring shaft 41 under the action of gravity, causing the stirring shaft 41 to rotate, thereby causing the stirring rod 42 to rotate to achieve a stirring effect.
[0033] Furthermore, the projections of the feed port 20 region and the discharge port 20 region of the chute housing 10 in the vertical direction have an overlap area of 50% to 100%. Figure 2 As shown, the passive stirring device is tilted in the vertical direction. When the material enters, it falls to the discharge port 30 through the action of the stirring structure. The discharge port 30 and the feed port 20 have a certain deviation in the vertical direction to prevent the material from not falling directly to the discharge port 30, thereby improving the stirring effect.
[0034] Further, the stirring structure 40 includes a stirring shaft 41 and a stirring rod disposed on the stirring shaft 41. Both ends of the stirring shaft 41 are fixedly connected to the chute housing 10 through a bearing seat 43. Specifically, the outer shell of the bearing seat 43 is connected to the chute housing 10, and the end of the stirring shaft 41 is engaged with the bearing in the bearing seat 41 to achieve free rotation. In some preferred embodiments, a ball bearing is used as a rotating support of the shaft to reduce the rotation resistance.
[0035] Furthermore, the lower edge of the guide plate 60 is arranged close to the axial direction of the stirring shaft 41. Figure 2As shown, in some preferred embodiments, the lower edge of the guide plate 60 is in the same vertical plane as the axial direction of the stirring shaft 41. When the material flow 50 impacts the plate surface of the guide plate 60, and slides freely down with the guide plate 60 and falls to the axial position of the stirring shaft, the stirring shaft 41 is driven to rotate due to the energy of gravity. The design of the guide plate 60 can guide the material flow to impact the agitator more concentratedly, generate a greater driving force, and thus improve the energy utilization rate. The design of the guide plate 60 can make the material flow more stably impact the agitator downward, and impact the stirring structure 40 on the same side, preventing the material from simultaneously impacting both ends of the stirring structure and causing the problem of being unable to rotate, thereby enhancing the stirring effect and improving the uniformity of mixing. In addition, the material flow guided by the guide plate 60 can be more evenly distributed to various parts of the stirring structure 40, reducing the wear of a single stirring rod and extending the service life of the stirring structure 40.
[0036] Furthermore, if Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of stirring rods 42 staggered in the axial and circumferential directions are provided on the stirring shaft 41. This design enables a more complex and effective stirring effect to be produced when the material flow impacts the stirring rods 42. Specifically, the stirring rods 42 distributed in the axial direction can guide the flow direction of the material flow 50, so that the material is better mixed in the axial direction, while the stirring rods 42 staggered in the circumferential direction can increase the mixing effect of the material in the circumferential direction, making the stirring more uniform. In addition, the staggered distribution of the plurality of stirring rods 42 can disperse the impact force of the material flow on the stirring rod 42, reduce the wear of a single stirring rod 42, and thus extend the service life of the equipment.
[0037] Preferably, the stirring rod 42 is made of a wear-resistant material, preferably a stainless steel stirring rod. The stainless steel stirring rod has a smooth surface, which helps to reduce the friction resistance of the material during the stirring process, prevent the material from sticking to the stirring rod, and improve the mixing effect. Stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance, especially in acidic or alkaline solutions. This ensures that the stirring rod will not be damaged by corrosion during long-term use, thereby extending the service life of the stirring rod.
[0038] Preferably, the stirring rods 42 are staggered in length, and the stirring rods of different lengths will form different stirring ranges when rotating. The long stirring rods can penetrate deep into the material to achieve deep stirring, while the short stirring rods can better adapt to the surface of the material and promote surface mixing. This staggered distribution can ensure that the material is fully stirred at all levels, thereby improving the uniformity of mixing.
[0039] Preferably, the stirring rod 42 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 41 by welding, which is a more secure connection.
[0040] Furthermore, the spacing between the stirring shaft 42 and the guide plate 60 accounts for 1 / 4 to 1 / 2 of the length of the chute shell. A wider spacing can obtain higher gravitational potential energy to further obtain a better effect of material impacting the stirring structure 40 and realize passive automatic operation.
[0041] The passive stirring device provided by the utility model is installed in each chute, and the material flow falling from the upper part of the chute impacts the stirring rod of the stirrer, and then mixes and stirs in the falling process, so as to achieve the purpose of further stirring the mixed coal in a non-energy-consuming way, solve the problem of uneven mixed materials, and improve product quality.
