[0041] The utility model provides a stirring device.

[0042] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present utility model, the present utility model discloses a stirring device, which relates to the technical field of automated equipment. The stirring device includes a stirring chamber 10, a sealing seat 20, a stirring paddle 30 and a first driving member 40. The stirring chamber 10 has a mounting hole at the bottom; the sealing seat 20 is arranged in the mounting hole; the stirring paddle 30 has a snap-fit ​​groove 33 at the bottom, and the bottom surface of the stirring paddle 30 is in contact with the bottom wall of the stirring chamber 10; the top of the sealing seat 20 is snap-fitted into the snap-fit ​​groove 33; the first driving member 40 is connected to the stirring paddle 30 to drive the stirring paddle 30 to rotate.

[0043] In one embodiment, the mixing chamber 10 is cylindrical, and the sealing seat 20 and the stirring paddle 30 are both circular. The bottom of the stirring paddle 30 has an upwardly concave groove, namely a snap-fit ​​groove 33. The shape and size of the snap-fit ​​groove 33 correspond to those of the sealing seat 20, allowing the sealing seat 20 to snap onto the bottom of the stirring paddle 30.

[0044] Specifically, the stirring paddle 30 includes a connecting portion 31 and a blade 32. A snap-fit ​​groove 33 is provided at the bottom of the connecting portion 31. The connecting portion 31 is in the shape of a circular plate, with the bottom recessed inward, i.e., the bottom of the connecting portion 31 is recessed upward to form the snap-fit ​​groove 33.

[0045] A paddle 32 extending radially outward is provided at the edge of the connecting portion 31. Specifically, one end of the paddle 32 is connected to the edge of the connecting portion 31, and the other end extends toward and engages the sidewall of the mixing chamber 10. A through hole is provided at the center of the sealing seat 20 for the drive shaft of the first drive member 40 to pass through and connect with the connecting portion 31, thereby driving the connecting portion 31 to rotate. As the connecting portion 31 rotates, it drives the paddle 32 to rotate synchronously.

[0046] While ensuring that the paddle 32 rotates to stir the material in the mixing chamber 10, the diameter of the sealing seat 20 is maximized to increase the sealing diameter between the connecting portion 31 and the sealing seat 20. This avoids low linear speed stirring, solves the problem of film formation during low linear speed stirring, and reduces residual material during discharge.

[0047] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bottom of the mixing chamber 10 has a through hole for installing the sealing seat 20, and the top of the sealing seat 20 protrudes from the bottom wall of the mixing chamber 10 and extends into the mixing chamber 10. The connecting portion 31 is snapped onto the portion of the sealing seat 20 protruding from the mixing chamber 10 through the snap-in groove 33.

[0048] By properly adjusting the height of the portion of the sealing seat 20 protruding from the mixing chamber 10, the edge of the connecting portion 31 after being clamped can fit as closely as possible to the bottom wall of the mixing chamber 10, so as to prevent the material from entering the gap therebetween.

[0049] The technical solution of the present invention provides a concave engaging groove 33 at the bottom of the stirring paddle 30, with the sealing seat 20 disposed within the engaging groove 33. This allows the bottom of the stirring paddle 30 to conform to the bottom wall of the stirring chamber 10, increasing the sealing diameter of the stirring paddle 30 and ensuring that the stirring area of ​​the stirring paddle 30 operates at a high linear velocity. This prevents the area where the stirring paddle 30 contacts the material from stirring at a low linear velocity, thereby resolving the problem of material being squeezed and formed into a film in the gap between the bottom wall of the stirring chamber 10 and the stirring paddle 30. This improves the stirring effect and ensures that the material in the stirring chamber 10 can be completely discharged.

[0050] In one embodiment, the edge shape of the blade 32 is kept consistent with the shape of the connection between the bottom wall and the side wall of the mixing chamber 10, so that the blade 32 fits the inner wall of the mixing chamber 10 as closely as possible. Figure 1 The connection position between the bottom wall and the side wall of the mixing chamber 10 is a smooth arc connection. Therefore, the edge shape of the blade 32 is also set to be arc-shaped to reduce the gap between them and improve the mixing effect.

[0051] At the same time, the blade 32 is tilted, the bottom of the blade 32 is in contact with the bottom wall of the mixing chamber 10, and the top of the blade 32 extends obliquely upward along the direction of rotation of the connecting portion 31. Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the counterclockwise rotation of the connecting portion 31 is used as an example. The bottom of the paddle 32 is in contact with the bottom wall of the mixing chamber 10. When the connecting portion 31 rotates, it drives the bottom of the paddle 32 forward in a counterclockwise direction. Taking the tangent direction at any position as a reference, if the movement direction of the paddle 32 is the forward direction, the paddle 32 extends obliquely upward from the bottom to the rear.

[0052] By tilting the blade 32, the material rolls upward along the surface of the blade 32 during stirring, thereby improving the stirring effect. Figure 1 The blades 32 fit the side walls of the mixing bin 10 , so when rotating, the material is turned up along the side walls of the mixing bin 10 , and under the action of gravity, it converges toward the center along the parabolic trajectory B and falls back.

[0053] In one embodiment, the stirring device further includes a material separation component, which is disposed in the stirring bin 10; wherein, when the stirring paddle 30 rotates, it pushes the material upward along the side wall of the stirring bin 10, and the material separation component scatters the falling material when it rotates.

[0054] As the material falls back along parabolic trajectory B, the powder assembly 50 rotates at high speed to break up the falling material. Specifically, the material distribution assembly includes a second drive member 51 and multiple stirring rods 52. One end of the second drive member 51 is connected to the top of the mixing bin 10, and the other end extends downward. Multiple stirring rods 52 are spaced apart at the bottom of the second drive member 51. The second drive member 51 can be a motor, etc. The stirring rods 52 are fixed to the drive shaft of the motor. The extension direction of the stirring rods 52 is parallel to the diameter of the stirring paddle 30. When rotating, they can contact the falling material and achieve the effect of breaking up the material.

[0055] In one embodiment, by changing the shape of the blade 32, the rolling direction and rolling height of the material can be adjusted. Figure 5 The paddle 32 includes a stirring portion 321 and a bending portion 322. One end of the stirring portion 321 is connected to the edge of the connecting portion 31, and the other end extends along a side away from the connecting portion 31 and is connected to the bending portion 322. There is an angle between the bending portion 322 and the stirring portion 321.

[0056] Alternatively, the number of blades 32 can be adjusted to at least two, and the blades 32 are evenly spaced along the edge of the connecting portion 31 to further improve the stirring efficiency. Figure 6 and Figure 7 When five blades 32 are provided, they are evenly distributed on the edge of the connecting portion 31 . Figure 6 The middle blade 32 is a disguised structure. Figure 7 The middle blade 32 is a bent structure.

[0057] In one embodiment, see Figure 8 The sealing seat 20 is provided with a threaded groove 21 on its sidewall. When the stirring paddle 30 rotates counterclockwise under the action of the first driving member 40, powder entering the gap between the connecting portion 31 and the sealing seat 20 is pushed downward along the threaded groove 21, thereby pushing the powder out of the gap. This prevents material from entering the shaft seal area.

[0058] Similarly, see Figure 9 The same thread groove 21 can also be provided on the side wall of the clamping groove 33 to increase the downward airflow pressure and prevent the entry of resistance materials.

[0059] In one embodiment, see Figure 10, the top wall of the snap-fit ​​groove 33 is provided with an impeller groove 331, and the impeller groove 331 is a backward impeller groove 331. In some cases, even if there is a trace of material that overcomes the resistance of the thread groove 21 and enters between the bottom surface of the connecting portion 31 and the top surface of the sealing seat 20. In order to prevent the material from further entering the driving shaft of the first driving member 40, the impeller groove 331 is provided on the top wall of the snap-fit ​​groove 33, wherein the top wall is also the inner wall of the side of the snap-fit ​​groove 33 opposite to the top surface of the sealing seat 20. Through the cooperation of the connecting portion 31 and the backward impeller groove 331 as it rotates counterclockwise, the trace powder that enters the impeller groove 331 is thrown to the edge of the sealing seat 20, and is thrown out of the gap between the stirring paddle 30 and the sealing seat 20 in cooperation with the downward thrust of the thread groove 21.

[0060] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 The stirring device also includes a material receiving bin 60. The bottom edge of the stirring bin 10 is provided with a discharge port, and the material receiving bin 60 is connected to the discharge port. After stirring is completed, the discharge port opens, and as the stirring paddle 30 rotates, the material is pushed to the discharge port, and the material is discharged through the discharge port.

[0061] A pipeline is provided between the discharge port and the receiving bin 60 so that the material slides into the receiving bin 60 after leaving the discharge port.

[0062] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the technical concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
