[0002] The raising and lowering of a dryer's agitator head is a crucial operation during the drying and mixing process, directly impacting the equipment's stability and efficiency. During operation, the agitator head must be precisely positioned within a predetermined height range to ensure uniform and efficient mixing and drying of the materials. To ensure that the agitator head remains precisely in the designated position when raised or lowered, avoiding excessive movement or deviation, a limiter is required to control its travel.
[0003] In the prior art, commonly used in-position limiting devices usually adopt a hard limiting structure, that is, the in-position positioning of the stirring head is achieved through adjustment, matching, and welding of mechanical parts.
[0004] However, this positioning method has numerous drawbacks. First, the installation and commissioning process is cumbersome and complex. Once installed, the limit devices are difficult to adjust, lacking flexibility and interchangeability, and are unable to adapt to varying equipment or operating conditions. Furthermore, during operation, hard limit devices are prone to hard contact due to inertia. Prolonged use can lead to stress relaxation and excessive plastic deformation, reducing the equipment's positioning accuracy. This loss of accuracy not only impacts production efficiency but can also pose safety risks during equipment operation. Summary of the Invention

[0032] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the present invention is a stirring head lifting type dryer limiting device, the dryer includes a frame 10, and a lifting drive device 70, a lifting plate 61 driven and lifted by the lifting drive device 70, and a stirring head mounted on the lifting plate 61, the stirring head is used to cooperate with the container 20; the limiting device includes:
[0033] The upper limit structure includes a first detection device 73 provided on the lifting drive device 70 and a first detection column 72 connected to the lifting plate 61, wherein when the lifting drive device 70 drives the stirring head to rise, the first detection device 73 can trigger a signal to stop the lifting drive device 70 if the first detection column 72 is not detected;
[0034] The lower limit structure includes a second detection device 63 arranged on the lifting plate 61, and a second detection column 66 movably connected to the lifting plate 61; wherein, when the lifting drive device 70 drives the stirring head to descend, the second detection column 66 can be touched and move toward the second detection device 63, and the second detection device 63 can trigger a signal to stop the lifting drive device 70 when detecting the detection member.
[0035] The above-mentioned arrangement ensures the safety of the equipment operation process and avoids the problems of hard limit stress relaxation and reduced positioning accuracy caused by collision stops due to hard limits. In addition, traditional hard limit devices require mechanical adjustment and welding to fix, making it difficult to achieve interchangeability and flexible adjustment of equipment under different working conditions. However, the present invention uses a movable detection column and detection device, and the limit structure does not require a complex adjustment process. It can adapt to different types of mixing equipment and changes in working conditions, thereby enhancing the adaptability and interchangeability of the equipment.
[0036] In one embodiment, the lifting drive device 70 includes a hydraulic cylinder 71, which is mounted on the lifting plate 61 via an adjustment member 75 (e.g., a connecting screw). The hydraulic cylinder 71 is provided with a wear-resistant sleeve 76, and the first detection column 72 is slidably connected to the wear-resistant sleeve 76. The hydraulic cylinder 71 is connected to a first mounting bracket 74 for mounting the first detection device 73. The first detection column 72 not only cooperates with the first detection device 73 but also serves as a guide.
[0037] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the first mounting bracket 74 is vertically adjustably connected to the lifting plate 61; two first detection columns 72 are provided, and the two first detection columns 72 are symmetrically arranged along both sides of the hydraulic cylinder 71 and respectively corresponding to a first detection device 73.
[0038] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 4 As shown, the end of the second detection column 66 close to the second detection device 63 is connected to the sensing washer 62 , and the sensing washer 62 is connected to the second detection column 66 via a locking pin 65 . The sensing washer 62 can be limited by the lifting plate 61 .
[0039] Specifically, a guide sleeve 68 is provided on the lifting plate 61 , and the second detection column 66 is slidably connected to the guide sleeve 68 .
[0040] Specifically, the lifting plate 61 is provided with a mounting structure, the mounting structure is provided with a mounting seat 67, and the guide sleeve 68 is mounted on the mounting seat 67. A second mounting bracket 64 for mounting the second detection device 63 is connected to the lifting plate 61.
[0041] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 1As shown, the apparatus further includes a transmission box 60 and a vacuum cover 30 mounted on the lifting plate 61. The stirring head includes a stirring paddle 80 drivingly connected to the transmission box 60. The stirring paddle 80, the guide sleeve 68, and the second detection column 66 all pass through the vacuum cover 30. Furthermore, the lifting plate 61 is specifically the bottom plate of the transmission box 60. The stirring paddle 80 is connected to the vacuum cover 30 via a bearing cavity 40. The output of the transmission box 60 is connected to the stirring paddle 80 via a transmission belt. A cover 50 is provided above the transmission box 60 and the stirring paddle 80.
[0042] In one embodiment, the first detection device 73 and the second detection device 63 are both proximity switches, and the hydraulic cylinder 71 and the proximity switches are both connected to a PLC controller.
[0043] Mixing head lifting process: Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, the hydraulic cylinder 71 provides a lifting force, driving the vacuum cover 30, the bearing chamber 40, the cover 50, the transmission box 60, and the stirring paddle 80 to move vertically upward. At the same time, the wear-resistant sleeve 76 remains stationary, and the guide column slides vertically upward through the wear-resistant sleeve 76. When the stirring paddle 80 separates from the container 20 for a distance, the first detection column 72 moves away from the first detection device 73. The sensing signal of the first detection device 73 (proximity switch) fastened to the first mounting bracket 74 disappears, and an early warning is issued, forcing the hydraulic cylinder 71 to stop its vertical upward movement, thereby achieving the upper limit.
[0044] The process of the mixing head descending: Figure 4 As shown, during the descent process, the hydraulic cylinder 71 drives the vacuum cover 30, the bearing chamber 40, the cover shell 50, the transmission box 60, and the stirring paddle 80 to move vertically downward. When the descent reaches the specified position, if a fault occurs and the descent continues or the descent continues due to human violation, the second detection column 66 contacts the corresponding structure on the container 20, so that the second detection column 66 drives the sensing gasket 62 to move vertically upward. At this time, the second detection device 63 senses the sensing gasket 62, issues an early warning, and forcibly stops the hydraulic cylinder 71 from continuing to descend, thereby achieving the descent limit.
[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific implementation methods are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model and are not limiting. Although the utility model is described in detail with reference to examples, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
