Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of hoppers, and particularly to an anti-blocking hopper. Background Art
[0002] A hopper is a device widely used in the production industry for storing and transporting materials.
[0003] In the batching line during cement production, hoppers, as intermediate containers, ensure the accurate metering of various raw materials and guarantee the accuracy of the cement formula. They cooperate with conveying equipment (such as belt conveyors or bucket elevators) to feed the raw materials into the mixer. However, when adding materials to the hopper by a forklift or the like, the materials often get blocked at the discharge opening of the hopper, causing the hopper to become clogged.
[0004] In the related art, in addition to manual blockage clearing, the hopper blockage clearing measures usually use the bucket of a forklift to hit the hopper to make the hopper vibrate, thereby dredging the hopper. However, this method not only requires a high level of proficiency in operation for the forklift driver, but also hitting the hopper with large machinery will damage the hopper and affect its service life.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0031] The following will further describe the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying Figure 1 - accompanying Figure 3 drawings.
[0032] An embodiment of the present application discloses an anti-blocking hopper. Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , it includes a hopper body 1 erected on the ground, and the upper end of the hopper body 1 is open. Two discharge ports 11 are opened on the side wall at the lower end of the hopper body 1, and the discharge ports 11 are respectively located on both sides of the hopper body 1. A flow splitting assembly 2 for concentrating the material toward one side of the discharge port 11 is provided between the two discharge ports 11.
[0033] The diversion component 2 includes two diversion plates 21. One end of the two diversion plates 21 close to each other is fixedly connected. One end of the two diversion plates 21 close to the discharge port 11 is inclined downward and fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the hopper body 1.
[0034] Thus, the materials falling on the diversion plates 21 can be concentrated along the diversion plates 21 toward the discharge port 11.
[0035] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , a guide plate 3 is provided at each discharge port 11. The guide plate 3 is placed below the discharge port 11 and the end of the guide plate 3 away from the discharge port 11 is inclined downward. A connection component 4 for connecting the two is provided between the guide plate 3 and the hopper body 1.
[0036] The connection component 4 includes four first hanging rings 41 and four second hanging rings 42. The first hanging rings 41 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the hopper body 1. The second hanging rings 42 are respectively located at the four corners of the guide plate 3. Among them, the two second hanging rings 42 far from the hopper body 1 are fixedly connected to the guide plate 3. Channel steels 31 are fixedly connected to the two second hanging rings 42 close to the hopper body 1, and the channel steels 31 are fixedly connected to the guide plate 3. The first hanging rings 41 and the second hanging rings 42 correspond one by one, and a connecting rod 43 is provided between the first hanging rings 41 and the second hanging rings 42.
[0037] The connecting rod 43 includes a fixed rod 431 and two adjusting rods 432. The fixed rod 431 is placed between the two adjusting rods 432. The adjusting rods 432 are threadedly connected to the fixed rod 431. One end of the adjusting rod 432 away from the fixed rod 431 is fixedly connected with a fixed hook 4321. The fixed hook 4321 on the connecting rod 43 at the upper end of the fixed rod 431 is hooked to the first hanging ring 41. A chain 44 is provided below the fixed hook 4321 on the connecting rod 43 at the lower end of the fixed rod 431. One end of the chain 44 is hooked to the second hanging ring 42, and the other end of the chain 44 is hooked to the fixed hook 4321 at the lower end of the fixed rod 431.
[0038] Thus, by rotating the adjusting rod 432, the adjusting rod 432 can be moved on the fixed rod 431, thereby changing the length of the entire connecting rod 43, and the slope or height of the guide plate 3 can be adjusted. At the same time, the fixed hook 4321 can be hooked at different length directions of the chain 44, thereby realizing a large adjustment of the slope or height of the guide plate 3, and the processing speed of the discharge port 11 can be changed.
[0039] A vibration assembly 5 for vibrating the hopper body 1 is installed on the outer side wall of the hopper body 1. The vibration assembly 5 is provided in two groups and is respectively located on both sides of the hopper body 1. The vibration assembly 5 includes a backing plate 51, and the backing plate 51 is arranged in a cuboid shape. The backing plate 51 is welded to the hopper body 1. A vibrator 52 is provided on the side of the backing plate 51 away from the hopper body 1. An installation plate 53 is provided between the vibrator 52 and the backing plate 51. The installation plate 53 is fixedly connected to the vibrator 52. Four fixing bolts 54 are threadedly connected to the installation plate 53, and the four fixing bolts 54 are respectively located at the four corners of the installation plate 53. The rod portion of the fixing bolt 54 passes through the installation plate 53 and is threadedly connected to the backing plate 51.
[0040] By rotating the fixing bolt 54, the rod portion of the fixing bolt 54 is disengaged from the backing plate 51, so that the fixing of the installation plate 53 on the backing plate 51 can be cancelled.
[0041] The implementation principle of the anti-blocking hopper in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: After adding materials into the hopper body 1, the materials in the hopper body 1 can be concentrated towards the discharge port 11 under the action of the diversion plate 21. At the same time, by starting the vibration motor, the hopper body 1 and the guide plate 3 can be vibrated, so that the guide plate 3 can spread the materials discharged from the discharge port 11, and then the materials can be smoothly discharged from the discharge port 11.
[0042] The above are all the preferred embodiments of the present application. The protection scope of the present application is not limited hereby. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
