[0025] The present invention provides a feeding device, Figures 1 - 3A specific embodiment of a feeding device provided by the present utility model.
[0026] As Figure 1 , an embodiment of the present utility model provides a feeding device 100, including a frame 1, a feeding mechanism 2 and a material loading part 11. The feeding mechanism 2 is movably arranged on the frame 1 in the horizontal direction, and has a receiving cavity 21 for receiving materials, an inlet 22 and an outlet 23 communicating with the receiving cavity 21. The material loading part 11 is fixedly arranged on the frame 1. The feeding mechanism 2 is connected with a driving mechanism for driving it to reciprocate, and has a receiving position where the outlet 23 is closed by the material loading part 11 and a feeding position where the outlet 23 is at least partially deviated from the material loading part 11.
[0027] In the present utility model, the feeding device 100 is generally arranged below the blanking port of the material bin. Materials flow out from the blanking port 6 and enter the receiving cavity 21 through the inlet 22. Moreover, the feeding device 100 proposed in this solution is an active feeding device. When feeding is not required, the feeding mechanism 2 can move to the receiving position where the outlet 23 is closed by the material loading part 11, and the material loading part 11 is used to carry the materials in the receiving cavity 21 to achieve self-locking, without the need to additionally set other material blocking structures. When feeding is required, the driving mechanism drives the feeding mechanism 2 to move to the feeding position where the outlet 23 is at least partially deviated from the material loading part 11, and the outlet 23 is opened for the materials to flow out from the outlet 23. Also, because the feeding mechanism 2 moves in the horizontal direction, during the process of the driving mechanism driving the feeding mechanism 2, the feeding mechanism 2 will generate a horizontal thrust on the materials carried on the material loading part 11 to push the materials out of the outlet 23, reducing the blockage situation and being applicable to materials with poor fluidity. In addition, it is worth mentioning that for the feeding device 100 proposed by the present utility model, the feeding amount is easy to control, and the feeding amount can be controlled by controlling the running speed of the driving mechanism for the feeding mechanism 2.
[0028] It should be noted that the driving mechanism is not specifically limited. In some embodiments, it can be a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, a motor, etc. The specific structure of the material loading part 11 is also not limited, as long as it can open and close the outlet during the moving stroke of the feeding mechanism. In some embodiments, the material loading part 11 is a loading plate.
[0029] Specifically, in some embodiments, a pusher partition 24 is provided in the middle of the accommodation cavity. The pusher partition 24 divides the accommodation cavity 21 into a left discharge channel 211 and a right discharge channel 212 in the horizontal direction. The left discharge channel 211 and the right discharge channel 212 are respectively communicated with the discharge port 23. The feeding mechanism 2 has at least a part of the left discharge channel 211 deviated from the left feeding position of the material loading part 11 and at least a part of the right discharge channel 212 deviated from the right feeding position of the material loading part 11. During the feeding process, when the discharge port 23 moves leftward relative to the material loading part 11 to the left feeding position, the pusher partition 24 can push the material in the left discharge channel 211 to flow out from the discharge port 23, and the material located in the right discharge channel 212 will be temporarily stored in the accommodation cavity 21 to ensure that there is enough material for feeding when the discharge port 23 moves rightward relative to the material loading part 11 subsequently. When the discharge port 23 moves rightward relative to the material loading part 11 to the right feeding position, the left discharge channel 211 can be replenished with material through the feed port 22. In this way, the feeding mechanism 2 can stably and continuously output material during both strokes of moving to the left feeding position and the right feeding position, improving the stability of discharging during feeding, further facilitating the control of the feeding amount. Moreover, since the feeding structure 2 moves reciprocally, it can perform one-way discharging, that is, when moving to the left feeding position, only the material in the left discharge channel 211 is discharged, and when moving to the right feeding position, only the material in the right discharge channel 212 is discharged, making the material not easy to accumulate and easier to flow out, which is applicable to materials with poor fluidity.
[0030] Specifically, in some embodiments, a hopper 4 is provided below the discharge port 23. The hopper 4 has a hopper inlet, and the projections of the reciprocating ends of the accommodation cavity 21 on the horizontal plane are all within the projection range of the hopper inlet on this horizontal plane. In this way, it can be ensured that the discharge port 23 is always within the hopper inlet during the moving stroke, avoiding the situation that the material cannot all fall into the hopper 4, resulting in waste and environmental pollution. Preferably, the hopper 4 includes a conical hopper, and the conical structure is beneficial to guiding the material to fall and avoiding blockage.
[0031] Specifically, in some embodiments, the hopper also has a hopper outlet, and a material conveying mechanism is provided below the hopper outlet to facilitate receiving and transporting the material output from the feeding mechanism 2. In terms of the selection of the material conveying mechanism 3, a belt conveyor is preferably used. The belt conveyor is arranged in the corridor below the material storage, and can adapt to the line layout of the corridor.
[0032] It should be noted that the structure of the feeding mechanism is not specifically limited. In some embodiments, the feeding mechanism includes a feeding cart movably arranged on the frame 1 in the horizontal direction. The accommodating cavity 21 is formed inside the housing of the feeding cart. The feeding port 22 and the discharging port 23 are formed at opposite ends of the housing of the feeding cart in the vertical direction. Adopting the form of a feeding cart is conducive to driving its movement in the horizontal direction, and the feeding port 22 and the discharging port 23 are arranged at opposite ends, facilitating the vertical gravity to drive the material to flow from the feeding port 22 to the discharging port 23.
[0033] It should be noted that the movement form of the feeding mechanism 2 is not specifically limited. In some embodiments, a plurality of rollers 25 are provided at the bottom of the feeding mechanism 2. The feeding mechanism 2 is movably arranged on the frame 1 in the horizontal direction through the rollers 25, which can reduce the resistance during movement. Specifically, the rollers can be arranged at the bottom of the feeding cart.
[0034] Specifically, in some embodiments, a guiding mechanism 12 for guiding the movement of each roller 25 is provided on the frame 1. The guiding mechanism 12 is not specifically limited and can be a guide rail, a chute, etc.
[0035] The present invention also provides a storage bin, including a bin structure and the above-mentioned feeding device 100. The bin structure has a storage cavity for storing materials and a blanking port 6 communicated with the storage cavity. The feeding port 22 is located below the blanking port 6 and faces the blanking port 6. In this way, the materials in the storage bin can enter the accommodating cavity 21 through the feeding port 22 from the blanking port 6 under the action of gravity, and then the subsequent feeding process can be carried out.
[0036] Specifically, in some embodiments, the frame 1 is located on the floor 5 below the blanking port 6. In this way, the pressure of the feeding mechanism 2 bearing the materials and the load of its own movement can be transmitted to the floor 5 through the frame 1, and the operation reliability is good.
[0037] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
