Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of concrete mixing equipment, and particularly relates to a discharging device for a concrete mixing plant. Background Art

[0002] The discharging device of a concrete mixing plant is a key component to ensure the smooth and accurate transfer of the concrete finished product from the mixer to the transport vehicle or storage tank. The design and performance of the discharging device directly affect the quality of the concrete, the production efficiency of the mixing plant, and the operation safety. The following are some key information about the discharging device of a concrete mixing plant:

[0003] 1. Discharging valve: The discharging door is a device at the bottom of the mixer for controlling the outflow of concrete. It is usually designed to be pneumatically or hydraulically driven to ensure quick and accurate opening and closing. The design of the discharging door needs to consider the sealing performance to prevent the leakage of concrete during the mixing process.

[0004] 2. Control system: The discharging device of a modern mixing plant is usually integrated with the central control system and realizes automatic control through a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or DCS (Distributed Control System), including the opening and closing of the discharging door, the adjustment of the metering system, etc.

[0005] 3. Safety protection: The design of the discharging device needs to consider the safety of operators. Safety measures such as guardrails and emergency stop buttons are set to ensure that the discharging process can be quickly stopped in case of an emergency.

[0006] 4. Environmental protection measures: To reduce dust emissions and noise pollution, the discharging device is usually equipped with a dust collection device and sound insulation measures to meet environmental protection requirements.

[0007] The discharging device of a concrete mixing plant is an important part to ensure the high efficiency and safety of the concrete production and transportation process. Its design and application need to comprehensively consider production efficiency, concrete quality, operation safety, and environmental protection requirements. The existing control of the discharging valve on the discharging hopper generally uses a butterfly valve or an outer sealing door with an arc structure installed at the bottom. Both of these two sealing structures have the problem of easy material jamming. Aggregates are squeezed into the gaps between the baffle or the sealing door, resulting in poor sealing and damage to the equipment. The position of the feeding port is fixed and cannot accurately identify and align with the feeding hopper of the mixer truck, resulting in the problem of material scattering.

[0008] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a discharging device for a concrete mixing plant to solve the problems of easy material jamming and damage of the existing discharging valve of the mixing plant and easy material scattering at the feeding port. Content of the Utility Model

[0009] Aiming at the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a discharging device for a concrete mixing plant.

[0011] Specifically, the discharging hopper is fixedly installed on the installation frame. The discharging hopper is located below the mixer of the mixing plant, and a mixer truck drives into the installation frame. The feeding hopper of the mixer truck is located below the flexible hose.

[0012] Specifically, four crossbeams are provided in the middle of the installation frame. An adjusting cylinder is installed on the crossbeam in the driving direction of the mixer truck, and an adjusting cylinder is installed on the crossbeam in the side direction of the mixer truck.

[0013] Specifically, the end of the cylinder rod of the adjusting cylinder abuts against the outside of the flexible hose. The end of the cylinder rod of the adjusting cylinder is connected to a pulling rope, and the other end of the pulling rope is connected to the outer wall of the flexible hose. The adjusting cylinder controls the cylinder rod to push the flexible hose or pull the flexible hose through the pulling rope. The two adjusting cylinders jointly control the movement of the flexible hose in four directions.

[0014] Specifically, the bottom of the discharging pipeline is connected to an inclined pipeline. The outlet of the inclined pipeline faces the driving direction of the mixer truck, and the bottom of the inclined pipeline is connected to the flexible hose through a pipe clamp.

[0015] Specifically, a camera is installed on one side of the lower part of the inclined pipeline. The camera is located at the rear in the driving direction of the mixer truck, and the camera identifies the position of the feeding hopper of the mixer truck.

[0016] Specifically, the discharging valve adopts a butterfly valve. The discharging valve is installed on the discharging pipeline through the flange plates provided on both sides. A rotating shaft for controlling rotation is provided in the middle of the discharging valve. Semi-circular baffles are provided on the opposite sides of the rotating shaft. Scrapers are fixedly connected to the outside of the baffles. The scrapers adopt an arc shape adapted to the inside of the pipeline, and the width of the scrapers is greater than the thickness of the baffles.

[0017] The present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] The discharging device for the concrete mixing plant designed by the present utility model adopts a built-in butterfly valve structure, and a scraper structure is arranged on the outer periphery of the baffle. The width of the scraper is greater than the thickness of the baffle, so as to scrape away the materials in the valve cavity in advance, avoid the jamming of the baffle and the inner wall of the valve, improve the service life of the valve, and improve the production efficiency of concrete.

[0019] The discharging device of the concrete mixing plant designed by the utility model adds an inclined pipe and a flexible pipe at the lower part of the discharging pipe. The inclined pipe guides the discharged concrete to avoid splashing. The flexible pipe controls the discharging direction through two adjusting cylinders. The position of the feeding hopper of the mixing truck is identified by a camera, and the flexible pipe is controlled to be directly opposite to the feeding hopper to avoid material scattering.
