Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of metering bin cleaning, and particularly to a cleaning device for a rice malt metering bin. Background Art

[0002] A metering bin is a device for storing materials and an indispensable supporting facility for industrial equipment. When discharging materials, the metering bin can automatically calculate the amount of discharged materials, so as to achieve the effect of accurately discharging materials. In the beer saccharification process, in order to ensure the accuracy of feeding and improve the consistency of beer, it is necessary to meter the materials through the metering bin before feeding; after the existing metering bin finishes metering, residual materials are likely to remain inside, resulting in poor metering effect, and the metering bin is large in volume, and the efficiency of manual cleaning is low. Summary of the Utility Model

The metering bin is fixedly installed on the support frame. The feed hopper is an integral structure with the metering bin and is located at the top of the metering bin. The discharge hopper is an integral structure with the metering bin. The cleaning device is fixedly installed on the discharge hopper. In this technical solution, the cleaning device is arranged on the discharge hopper to blow and clean the inside of the metering bin from bottom to top to prevent residual materials from remaining inside.

[0006] A guide groove is opened in the discharge hopper. The cleaning device includes a fixed frame, a driving motor, a cleaning pipe and a protective plate. The fixed frame is fixedly installed on the discharge hopper. The driving motor is installed inside the fixed frame, and the output end of the driving motor is connected to the middle of the cleaning pipe. The protective plate is of an arc-shaped structure and is fixedly connected to the cleaning pipe. The outer periphery of the protective plate abuts against the guide groove. One end of the cleaning pipe located inside the fixed frame is connected with an air delivery hose.

[0007] In the above technical solution, the driving of the driving motor makes the cleaning pipe rotate along its output, increasing the blowing area through rotation, and the cleaning pipe moves along the guide groove to blow the inside of the metering bin along with the driving of the motor. And a protective plate is arranged to move along the guide groove to prevent materials from entering the inside of the cleaning device.

[0008] In one embodiment, a discharge valve is installed at the bottom of the discharge hopper. In this technical solution, the storage and discharge of materials are realized through the discharge valve.

[0009] In one embodiment, several cleaning pipes are provided on the discharge hopper and are evenly distributed, and the number of driving motors is the same as the number of cleaning pipes. One end of the air delivery hose is connected to the cleaning pipe, and the other end is connected to an air pump. The air pump delivers gas to the cleaning pipe through the air delivery hose. In this technical solution, the air pump discharges gas through the cleaning pipe, and several cleaning pipes are arranged on the discharge hopper to clean and blow each position of the metering bin to prevent residual materials from remaining.

[0010] In one embodiment, the width of the guide groove is greater than the diameter of the cleaning pipe, and an inner groove adapted to the protection plate is provided in the guide groove. The driving motor is a servo motor, and the cleaning pipe is driven by the servo motor to rotate along the rotation direction of its output end. The center of the arc-shaped structure of the protection plate coincides with the output end of the driving motor, so that when the cleaning pipe rotates along the output end of the driving motor, the protection plate rotates along the output end together. In this technical solution, the center of the protection plate coincides with the output end of the driving motor, so that when the cleaning pipe rotates, the protection plate also rotates and moves along the output end, and an inner groove adapted to the protection plate is provided on the guide groove, so that materials will not enter the inside of the cleaning device through the guide groove when the protection plate moves.

[0011] The advantages or beneficial effects in the above technical solutions at least include:

[0012] A cleaning device for a rice malt metering bin in the present disclosure rotates the cleaning pipe along its output by driving of a driving motor, and the cleaning pipe moves along the guide groove, and blows the inside of the metering bin with the driving of the motor to prevent residual materials from remaining inside the metering bin, ensure the accuracy of feeding during the saccharification process, and improve the consistency of beer;

The discharging hopper 4 is an integrated structure with the metering bin 1. The cleaning device 5 is fixedly installed on the discharging hopper 4. In this technical solution, the cleaning device is arranged on the discharging hopper to blow and clean the inside of the metering bin from bottom to top to prevent residual materials from remaining inside.

[0029] A guide groove 41 is formed in the discharging hopper 4. The cleaning device 5 includes a fixed frame 51, a driving motor 52, a cleaning pipe 53 and a protection plate 54. The fixed frame 51 is fixedly installed on the discharging hopper 4.

One end of the cleaning pipe 53 located inside the fixed frame 51 is connected with an air delivery hose.

[0030] In the above technical solution, the driving of the driving motor 52 causes the cleaning pipe 53 to rotate along its output, increasing the blowing area through rotation. And the cleaning pipe 53 moves along the guide groove 41 to blow the inside of the metering bin 1 along with the motor drive. Moreover, a protection plate 54 is arranged to move along the guide groove 41 to prevent materials from entering the inside of the cleaning device 5.

[0031] In one of the embodiments, a discharging valve is installed at the bottom of the discharging hopper 4. In this technical solution, the storage and discharge of materials are realized through the discharging valve.

[0032] In one of the embodiments, referring to Figures 1 - 4 , several cleaning pipes 53 are evenly distributed on the discharging hopper 4, and the number of driving motors 52 is the same as the number of cleaning pipes 53. One end of the air delivery hose is connected to the cleaning pipe 53, and the other end is connected to an air pump. The air pump conveys gas to the cleaning pipe through the air delivery hose. In this technical solution, the air pump discharges gas through the cleaning pipe 53, and several cleaning pipes 53 are arranged on the discharging hopper 4 to clean and blow each position of the metering bin 1 to prevent residual materials from remaining. Moreover, the blowing pressure and time are set through the air pump, and the rotation angle and rotation times are set for the driving motor 52 to ensure that the inside is blown clean.

The driving motor 52 is a servo motor. The cleaning pipeline 53 is driven by the servo motor to rotate along the rotation direction of its output end. The center of the arc structure of the protective plate 54 coincides with the output end of the driving motor 52. When the cleaning pipeline 53 rotates along the output end of the driving motor 52, the protective plate 54 rotates along the output end together. In this technical solution, the center of the protective plate 54 coincides with the output end of the driving motor 52, so that when the cleaning pipeline 53 rotates, the protective plate 54 also rotates and moves along the output end. An inner groove adapted to the protective plate 54 is provided on the guide groove 41, so that materials will not enter the cleaning device 5 through the guide groove 41 when the protective plate 54 moves.

[0034] In the description of the present disclosure, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings.
