[0047] The working process of the present utility model:

[0048] During work, the mixing hopper is sleeved on the lifting fork. The oil pump motor is started. After the hopper is lifted to the set height position by the lifting mechanism, the oil pump motor stops working. The lifted hopper automatically rotates above the feeding equipment through the control of the reducer and the angle encoder. The cylinder is started to automatically open the hopper butterfly valve. After the hopper discharges materials, the cylinder automatically closes the butterfly valve. Then the equipment automatically rotates the hopper to the initial position and descends to the ground. After the operator replaces the hopper with materials, it is ready for the next automatic lifting and feeding process.

[0049] The specific rotation process is as follows: When the hopper reaches the set height, the reducer starts to work, driving the small gear. The small gear meshes with the large gear fixed on the slewing bearing, and the large gear then drives the column, the fork, and the hopper to rotate. It can rotate to any angle. After rotating to the relevant position, the locking cylinder locks the column to complete the automatic rotation action.

[0050] The automatic discharging process: When the hopper reaches the designated position, the cylinder installed on the fork starts to work. The cylinder shaft drives the butterfly valve switch on the hopper to open. After the butterfly valve is opened, the materials fall by gravity from the discharging port to complete the discharging. After the discharging is completed, the cylinder shaft drives the butterfly valve switch on the hopper to close. After the butterfly valve is closed, the hopper rotates to the initial position when rising and descends to the ground. The operator replaces the hopper and prepares for the next lifting and feeding.

[0051] The utility model solves the problem of dust-free transfer of bulk materials, and has the advantages of automatic lifting, automatic rotation, automatic discharging, flexibility (adaptable to production in different batches), intuitiveness, convenient operation, easy cleaning and maintenance, etc. It can be used for the lifting and feeding of solid materials (powder, granules) in pharmaceutical enterprises, and can be used in supporting with main process equipment such as mixers, tablet presses, coating machines and capsule filling machines, effectively reducing dust and cross contamination, and at the same time greatly reducing the labor intensity. The utility model can be widely used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food.

[0052] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the utility model and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0053] In the description of the utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "up", "down", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and thus should not be construed as a limitation of the utility model. In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the utility model, unless otherwise stated, the meaning of "a plurality" is two or more.

[0054] In the description of the utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installation", "connection", "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection, an electrical connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the utility model can be understood through specific situations.

[0055] The applicant declares that the above is only the specific implementation manner of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art in the technical field should understand that any change or replacement that can be easily thought of within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model falls within the protection scope and the disclosure scope of the utility model.
