Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of material conveying and distributing materials, and belongs to the technical field of distributing devices, and is particularly a material distributing and distributing device on the top of a large storage bin. Background Art

[0002] Due to the large internal space of large storage silos, fixed feeding devices will form congestion at a certain angle at the inlet of the storage silo, resulting in a large waste of storage silo space, reducing utilization, and directly affecting the uniform dispersion of materials when entering the next-level conveying device. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the above defects, the utility model proposes a movable bidirectional feeding device to solve the above problems. The feeding device automatically moves along the circular or parallel track on the top of the silo under the drive of the walking motor, and the material discharge can rotate back and forth in the horizontal plane to realize the material being scattered in the fan-shaped area inside the silo along the discharge chute, solving the problem of dead corners in the storage of materials in the silo and improving the space utilization rate of the silo.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model:

[0005] A movable bidirectional material distribution device is installed on the top platform track of a large silo and contacts the track through a walking wheel. It is characterized by: comprising a shell, a spiral material distribution part, a driving part, a walking wheel, a brake, a material distribution port, a bracket, and an ultrasonic radar assembly. The spiral material distribution part is installed inside the shell and is fixedly connected to the shell through bearings and bracket connectors. The driving part is connected to the spiral material distribution part through transmission components such as a transmission shaft, gears, and belts to provide power for the spiral material distribution part. The driving part is fixedly installed inside the shell by bolts or welding. The walking wheel is installed at the bottom of the shell through components such as a wheel axle and a mounting bracket. The brake is connected to the wheel axle of the walking wheel or related transmission components. The material distribution port is opened at a corresponding position on the bottom or side of the shell, corresponding to the outlet of the spiral material distribution part. The bracket may be connected to the shell by welding, bolting, etc. The ultrasonic radar group is installed on the outside of the shell through a mounting bracket or a fixing seat; the walking wheel motor moves along the track by itself to carry out material distribution and loading.

[0006] The device of the utility model detects the material level of the silo through an ultrasonic radar component. When the material level is high, it means that the material is fully loaded. The PLC issues a travel command, and the travel wheel motor drives the travel wheel to rotate. The device moves along the track to the low material level to unload.

[0007] The spiral feeding part described in the present invention comprises a right-handed spiral piece, a left-handed spiral piece, a spiral shaft, and a bearing. The right-handed spiral piece and the left-handed spiral piece are bidirectionally arranged spiral pieces. The spiral feeding part discharges materials through the feeding ports on both sides of the device. The right-handed spiral piece and the left-handed spiral piece are welded to the spiral shaft. The spiral shaft head of the spiral shaft passes through the bearing seat to support the entire spiral feeding part.

[0008] The driving part of the utility model includes a motor, a reducer, and a coupling. The motor and the reducer are flange-connected. The reducer and the coupling are connected to the spiral cloth part through the reducer low-speed shaft. The driving part drives the spiral cloth part to rotate through the coupling.

[0009] The travel wheel of the utility model is characterized in that it can automatically travel on the track after the ultrasonic radar component detects a high material level. The travel wheel is driven by a travel wheel motor and braked by a brake to prevent the device from sliding accidentally.

[0010] The ultrasonic radar assembly described in this utility model is characterized by a silo height value set within the assembly. When the height value is reached, the assembly sends a signal to a PLC control system, which then energizes the motor of the travel wheels, causing them to move along a track. The track used in the device can be circular or straight. The ultrasonic radar assembly is mounted on the bottom of the device via a flange.

[0011] The travel wheel motor of the utility model is directly connected to the travel wheel through a speed reducer.

[0012] In order to make up for the deficiencies of the existing technology, this utility model patent has the advantages of reasonable structural design, easy use, small investment and small space occupation, and is maintenance-free throughout the year, and can solve the requirement for uniform distribution of materials during the transportation process.

[0013] The utility model detects the position where the material level is insufficient by patrolling in the length direction and performs accurate material feeding. When the material level reaches the required depth, the material feeding device continues to move along the track to ensure that the material level in the silo can reach the required depth.

[0014] The operating principle of the present invention is as follows: a feed port is provided at the top or side of the housing. Materials are transported to the feed port via a conveyor belt, elevator, or other conveying equipment, allowing the materials to enter the device for distribution. Hopper feeding can be employed, with the materials pre-loaded into the hopper, which is then connected to the device's feed point (e.g., via a pipe or chute). The materials are then transported from the hopper into the distribution device under the influence of gravity or an auxiliary pushing device (e.g., a screw propeller). If the device is used in conjunction with other large-scale production equipment, the feed port can be connected to the discharge port of upstream production equipment via a pipe or enclosed channel. Material produced by the upstream equipment then flows directly through the connecting channel into the movable bidirectional distribution device.

[0015] The driving part provides the power source for the entire device, and drives the spiral cloth part to rotate through the corresponding transmission mechanism.

[0016] When the material enters the device, the spiral feeding part starts to rotate under the drive of the driving part, and transports the material in a predetermined direction.

[0017] The traveling wheels allow the entire fabric distribution device to move freely within the workplace to meet the fabric distribution needs of different locations.

[0018] When the position of the device needs to be fixed for material laying operations, the brake is activated to brake the travel wheels to prevent the device from moving during the material laying process and ensure the accuracy of the material laying position.

[0019] The feeding port is the channel for material output. The material conveyed by the spiral feeding part is discharged from the feeding port and falls into the designated feeding area.

[0020] The bracket is used to support and stabilize the entire fabric distribution device to ensure that the device remains stable during operation.

[0021] As the device moves and operates, the ultrasonic radar component continuously transmits ultrasonic signals and receives reflected signals to detect obstacles, boundaries, and the conditions of the material distribution area. This detection information is fed back to the control system, which adjusts and controls the device's movement path, material distribution position, and material distribution speed based on this information, achieving precise and efficient material distribution operations.

[0022] The utility model is a movable bidirectional material distributing device with the following advantages:

[0023] (1) The utility model can be controlled automatically or manually, and can move the material distribution position according to the material loading height.

[0024] (2) The utility model has a simple operation process, low investment, low energy consumption, and a high degree of automation, which greatly improves the material distribution efficiency and solves the problems of dead corners and low space utilization in large silos. This device is conducive to industrial application. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
