Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of grain processing, in particular to a hopper for grain processing. Background Art

[0002] Grain refers to the general term for various plant seeds used in cooking food, and can also be generally referred to as cereals. Grain is rich in nutrients, mainly protein, vitamins, dietary fiber, fat and starch. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations' concept of food refers to cereals, including wheat, beans, coarse grains and rice. Grain processing refers to the business activities of converting raw grains into semi-finished grains and finished grains through processing, or converting semi-finished grains into finished grains;

[0003] When the existing hopper used for grain processing is in use, it is easy to cause blockage due to the narrow discharge port and the accumulation of feed at the feed port. When the existing hopper is blocked, it needs to be cleared manually with tools, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, if the feeding is not interrupted in time when the blockage occurs, the feed port will accumulate too much and overflow, and the blockage problem is more serious. Utility Model Content

[0022] Various embodiments of the present invention may be presented in the form of a range. It should be understood that the description in the form of a range is merely for convenience and brevity and should not be understood as a rigid limitation on the scope of the present invention. Therefore, it should be considered that the range description has specifically disclosed all possible sub-ranges and single numerical values within the range. For example, the range description from 1 to 6 should be considered to have specifically disclosed sub-ranges, such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6, etc., as well as single numbers within the range, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, which apply regardless of the range. In addition, whenever a numerical range is indicated in the present invention, it is intended to include any quoted number (fraction or integer) within the indicated range. Unless otherwise specified, the various raw materials, reagents, instruments and equipment used in the present invention can be purchased on the market or can be prepared by existing equipment.

[0024] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a hopper for grain processing includes a main body 1, a feed frame 11 is fixedly installed on the top of the main body 1, a discharge frame 12 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the main body 1, a support plate 2 is provided on the top of the feed frame 11, and support rods 21 fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 2 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the top of the feed frame 11, a mounting box 22 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the support plate 2, a rod body 23 is movably installed on the top of the support plate 2, which passes through the mounting box 22 and extends to the inside of the discharge frame 12, and a drive assembly 3 is fixedly installed inside the mounting box 22, and the drive assembly 3 includes a motor 31, a movable plate 32, a drive shaft 33, a strip through hole 34 and a disc 35, and a stirring head 4 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the rod body 23, and the stirring head 4 includes two twisted stirring blades.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown: the motor 31 is fixedly mounted on one side of the inner wall of the installation box 22, the disc 35 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the motor 31, the movable plate 32 is movably mounted between the two sides of the inner wall of the installation box 22 and is located on one side of the disc 35, the movable plate 32 is fixedly connected to one side of the rod body 23, a strip through hole 34 is opened on the movable plate 32, and the drive shaft 33 is fixedly mounted on one side of the disc 35 and extends to the inside of the strip through hole 34.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown: anti-slip strips 5 are fixedly installed in the middle of the four sides of the top of the feeding frame 11.

[0027] Specifically: it is convenient for users to place a carrier filled with grain on the hopper to prevent it from slipping, and it is convenient to pour the grain into the hopper.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown: a limiting cylinder 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the support plate 2 and is sleeved on the outside of the rod body 23. Limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the limiting cylinder 6, and limiting blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the rod body 23 and are slidably connected to the limiting grooves.

[0029] Specifically: further strengthen the anti-torsion performance of the rod body 23 and improve the stability of the connection.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, a conical connecting block 41 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the rod body 23 , and the rod body 23 is fixedly connected to the stirring head 4 through the conical connecting block 41 .

[0031] Specifically, the conical connecting block 41 can reduce the resistance encountered by the top connection of the stirring head 4 when the stirring head 4 rises.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown: both sides of the inner wall of the installation box 22 are provided with stable grooves, and both sides of the movable plate 32 are slidably connected to the stable grooves.

[0033] Specifically: the stability of the movement of the moving plate 32 is improved.

[0034] Principle of use: First, place the container filled with grain on the feed frame 11, and use the anti-slip strip 5 to provide better friction, so that the user can pour the grain into the hopper. When the grain enters the hopper, start the motor 31 to drive the disc 35 to rotate and then rotate the drive shaft 33. Due to the action of the bar-shaped through hole 34, the drive shaft 33 deviates inside the bar-shaped through hole 34 to make the movable plate 32 move up and down, thereby driving the rod body 23 to move up and down, and the stirring head 4 moves up and down synchronously. Due to the twisted stirring blades provided on the stirring head 4, the grain is subjected to the force of the surface of the stirring blades during its up and down movement. Since the stirring blades on the stirring head 4 are twisted and the displacement direction of the stirring head 4 is up and down, the angle of the force changes during the rotation. Therefore, under the action of the two stirring blades, the grain at the discharge port is stirred, which can prevent accumulation and blockage there.

[0035] The foregoing description is merely a detailed description of specific embodiments of the present invention, intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand and implement the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is intended to conform to the broadest scope consistent with the principles and novel features claimed herein.
