DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The following is combined with Figure 1-2The utility model is described in further detail.
[0026] The present application embodiment discloses a vacuum rake bottom unloading device, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , including a valve seat 1, a valve body 2 and a valve plate 3. The valve seat 1 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the vacuum rake. The vacuum rake includes a shell. A drying chamber for drying materials is arranged in the shell. A discharge through hole communicating with the drying chamber is provided at the bottom of the shell. In the embodiment of the present application, the outer wall of the valve seat 1 is fitted with the inner wall of the discharge through hole, and a discharge chamber 11 for discharging is penetrated and opened on the valve seat 1. The discharge chamber 11 is communicated with the drying chamber. The dried materials in the drying chamber can be separated from the vacuum rake through the discharge chamber 11.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the valve body 2 is fixed to the end of the valve seat 1 away from the bottom of the vacuum rake, the valve seat 1 includes a fixing ring 12, the valve body 2 includes a sealing ring 21, and the fixing ring 12 is provided with a sealing groove 121 for the sealing ring 21 to be embedded. The connection between the valve body 2 and the valve seat 1 is arranged in a step-like shape, which improves the sealing between the valve body 2 and the valve seat 1, and the material is not easy to move from the gap between the valve body 2 and the valve seat 1 to the outside of the valve body 2. In addition, in the actual use process, it is also possible to choose whether to add a sealing gasket in the sealing groove 121 according to the material situation, so as to further improve the sealing between the valve body 2 and the valve seat 1. The fixing ring 12 and the sealing ring 21 are fixed by bolts, which is convenient for the disassembly and assembly between the valve body 2 and the valve seat 1, so as to facilitate the later inspection and maintenance.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The valve plate 3 is slidably arranged in the discharge chamber 11. After the valve plate 3 slides, the side wall of the valve plate 3 is attached to or separated from the inner wall of the discharge chamber 11, so as to achieve the effect of controlling the discharge chamber 11 to be open or closed with the outside world; the inner diameter of the discharge chamber 11 is gradually increased in the direction toward the valve body 2, and the shape of the valve plate 3 is adapted to the discharge chamber 11. A sealing strip 31 is also embedded on the side wall of the valve plate 3. When the valve plate 3 slides until the side wall of the valve plate 3 is attached to the inner wall of the discharge chamber 11, the sealing strip 31 is attached to the inner wall of the discharge chamber 11. Since the inner diameter of the discharge chamber 11 increases gradually in the direction toward the valve body 2, when the valve plate 3 slides toward the vacuum rake, there is a gap between the sealing strip 31 and the inner wall of the discharge chamber 11, so the sealing strip 31 is not easy to contact with the inner wall of the discharge chamber 11, which effectively prolongs the service life of the sealing strip 31 and reduces the possibility of fine tissue on the sealing strip 31 falling off and mixing into the material due to the friction of the sealing strip 31, thereby ensuring the purity of the dried material to a certain extent.
[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2, the sealing groove 121 is arranged on the side of the inner wall of the discharge cavity 11 away from the axis of the valve seat 1. In the figure, it is shown that the sealing groove 121 is on the side of the extension line of the inner wall of the discharge cavity 11 away from the axis of the valve seat 1. During the process of the material moving from the drying cavity towards the valve body 2, the material will slide along the inner wall of the discharge cavity 11. Through the above arrangement, when the material flow rate and velocity are stable, it is not easy for the material to slide towards the direction of the sealing groove 121, so that the material is not easy to accumulate between the valve body 2 and the valve seat 1, which to a certain extent ensures the reliability of the fixation between the valve body 2 and the valve seat 1.
[0030] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a sliding member for controlling the sliding of the valve plate 3 is provided on the valve body 2. The sliding member includes a fixed seat 4, a valve rod 7 and a cylinder 5. The fixed seat 4 is fixedly arranged on the valve body 2. The fixed seat 4 penetrates through the valve body 2 and extends into the valve body 2. Since the valve plate 3 in this application slides along the axis of the discharge cavity 11, the valve body 2 is integrally bent to provide a space for the installation of the sliding member. The cylinder 5 is fixed to the end of the fixed seat 4 away from the valve seat 1 by bolts. One end of the valve rod 7 is threadedly connected to the piston rod of the cylinder 5. The piston rod of the cylinder 5 is coaxially arranged with the valve rod 7. An external thread is provided at the end of the valve rod 7 facing the cylinder 5, and a thread groove threadedly engaged with the external thread is provided on the piston rod of the cylinder 5, effectively ensuring the connection strength between the valve rod 7 and the cylinder 5 and facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the valve rod 7.
[0031] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the other end of the valve rod 7 is fixed to the valve plate 3. A sphere 71 is fixedly provided at the end of the valve rod 7 away from the cylinder 5. In the embodiment of this application, the sphere 71 is made of stainless steel. An engaging groove 32 for the sphere 71 to be fitted is provided on the valve plate 3. A support plate 72 for supporting the sphere 71 is also slidably connected to the valve rod 7. The support plate 72 is attached to the outer surface of the sphere 71. A support through hole for the valve rod 7 to pass through is provided through the support plate 72. The sphere 71 is located between the support plate 72 and the valve plate 3. The support plate 72 is fixed to the valve body 2 by bolts. Through the setting of the steel ball, the contact area between the valve rod 7 and the valve plate 3 is increased, so that the valve rod 7 and the valve plate 3 are not easy to bend and deform after long-term use, effectively ensuring that the valve plate 3 is controlled to slide through the valve rod 7, so as to achieve the effect of controlling the opening and closing of the discharge cavity 11 to the outside. When the valve rod 7 is controlled to slide by the cylinder 5, the valve plate 3 can be synchronously driven to slide along the axis direction of the valve seat 1, so as to control the opening and closing of the discharge cavity 11 to the outside.
[0032] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2, a sliding through hole 41 for the valve stem 7 to slide through is formed through the fixing seat 4. A bushing 42 is fixedly arranged on the fixing seat 4. The outer wall of the bushing 42 fits with the inner wall of the sliding through hole 41 of the fixing seat 4, and the inner wall of the bushing 42 fits with the outer wall of the valve stem 7. Through the arrangement of the bushing 42, on the one hand, the friction between the valve stem 7 and the fixing seat 4 is reduced, thereby reducing the noise generated by friction during the sliding of the valve stem 7 and improving the service life of the valve stem 7. On the other hand, it can also cooperate with the fixing seat 4 to limit the sliding direction of the valve stem 7, improving the reliability of driving the valve plate 3 to slide through the sliding of the valve stem 7.
[0033] The above are all the preferred embodiments of this application. The protection scope of this application is not limited accordingly. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be covered within the protection scope of this application.
