Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of feeding equipment, in particular to an automatic feeding device for a multi-stage furnace. Background Art
[0002] The molten salt electrolysis method is an important method for producing rare earth metals and rare earth alloys. During the processing of molten salt slag, it needs to be fed into a multi-stage furnace for corresponding roasting and distillation. Generally, when feeding, a screw conveyor is designed to be inclined, and the discharge port of the screw conveyor is placed above the feed port of the multi-stage furnace, so that the material continuously enters. Since the material itself has a certain viscosity, especially after being fed by the screw conveyor, the materials will stick together, resulting in material adhesion, poor fluidity, abnormal feeding inside the multi-stage furnace, and inability to disperse after entering the multi-stage furnace, leading to low subsequent roasting efficiency. For this reason, we have designed an automatic feeding device for a multi-stage furnace. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] To solve the technical problem that materials stick together, resulting in material adhesion, material cohesion, and poor fluidity, the utility model provides an automatic feeding device for a multi-stage furnace.
[0004] The utility model is realized by the following technical solutions: an automatic feeding device for a multi-stage furnace, including a screw conveyor. The screw conveyor is designed to be inclined, and a feeding frame is installed below the upper discharge port of the screw conveyor. A rotating shaft is rotatably installed inside the feeding frame through bearings. Multiple groups of equally spaced crushing rods are arranged on the rotating shaft. Each group of crushing rods includes eight crushing rods arranged in a circular array. On the upper and lower sides of the outer surface of each crushing rod, a plurality of equally spaced rake nails are arranged, and the rake nails are perpendicular to the surface of the crushing rod.
[0005] As a further improvement of the above solution, the front end of the rotating shaft passes through the feeding frame and is located outside it, and the front end of the rotating shaft is connected to the output shaft of a driving motor. The rotation of the output shaft of the driving motor can make the rotating shaft rotate, and then make multiple crushing rods and the rake nails on the crushing rods rotate synchronously, so as to disperse the falling materials and prevent them from sticking together, facilitating subsequent processing.
[0006] As a further improvement of the above solution, a support one and a support two are respectively rotatably installed below the middle and the right side of the screw conveyor through pins. The screw conveyor is designed to be inclined with its left end higher than its right end, and the height of the support one is adjustable, so that the height of the screw conveyor can be changed according to needs, suitable for multi-stage furnaces of various different heights.
[0007] As a further improvement of the above solution, the feeding frame includes a straight pipe section, an arc section is integrally formed above the straight pipe section, and the tops of the arc sections on the left and right sides are designed to spread outwards to form widened sections. The crushing rods and the rotating shaft are placed inside the arc sections, and the axis of the rotating shaft is collinear with the axis of the arc section. The width above the widened section increases, and the arc section is used for the rotation of the crushing rods. When the crushing rods break the materials, they will not collide with the inner wall of the feeding frame.
[0008] As a further improvement of the above solution, a sealing plate is installed at the top of the feeding frame. An opening is provided in the middle above the sealing plate, and a connecting hose is connected to the opening. The upper end of the connecting hose is connected to the discharge port of the screw conveyor through a flange. The connecting hose is a kind of cloth bag pipe, and a certain margin is left for the connecting hose. The vibration generated during the feeding process of the screw conveyor will not affect the feeding frame, and the connection between the two is not easy to loosen. A flange is also provided at the lower end of the feeding frame, and the lower end of the feeding frame is connected to the feeding port of the multi-stage furnace through a flange.
[0009] As a further improvement of the above solution, guide rods are provided on the inner walls of the left and right sides inside the arc section of the feeding frame. One guide rod is provided between two adjacent crushing rods, and the inner end of the guide rod does not contact the crushing rod. The inner end of the guide rod is lower than the outer end, and a convex portion is formed on the protruding part at the upper end of the guide rod. The middle of the convex portion is higher than the left and right ends. The design of the guide rod can block and guide the materials, so that the materials on the left and right sides of the feeding frame can flow downward to the middle, which is convenient for the crushing rods and the rake nails to disperse the materials. And the design of the convex portion makes it not easy for materials to remain on the guide rod.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0011] 1. In the present invention, a feeding frame is arranged at the lower end of the screw conveyor. A plurality of crushing rods are rotatably arranged in the feeding frame, and rake nails are arranged on the crushing rods. When the rake nails rotate, they can push the materials downward, so that the materials are dispersed. The materials entering the multi-stage furnace are dispersed and will not stick together, and have good fluidity;
[0012] 2. By arranging a plurality of guide rods at the left and right ends of the feeding frame, and the guide rods are arranged in the gaps between the crushing rods, the materials can be blocked and guided, so that the materials on the left and right sides of the feeding frame can flow downward to the middle, which is convenient for the crushing rods and the rake nails to disperse the materials. And the design of the convex portion makes it not easy for materials to remain on the guide rod. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] Bracket 11 and bracket 12 are respectively rotatably installed below the middle and right side of the screw conveyor 1 through pins.

[0024] The feeding frame 3 includes a straight pipe section 31, with an arc section 32 integrally formed above the straight pipe section 31. The tops of the arc sections 32 on the left and right sides are designed to spread outwards to form widened sections 33. The crushing rod 6 and the rotating shaft 5 are placed inside the arc section 32, and the axis of the rotating shaft 5 is collinear with the axis of the arc section 32. The width above the widened section 33 increases, and the arc section 32 is used for the rotation of the crushing rod 6.

[0025] A sealing plate 34 is installed at the top of the feeding frame 3. An opening is provided in the middle above the sealing plate 34, and a connecting hose 2 is connected to the opening. The upper end of the connecting hose 2 is connected to the discharge port of the screw conveyor 1 through a flange. The connecting hose 2 is a kind of cloth bag pipe, and a certain margin is left for the connecting hose 2.
