Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present application. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0038] Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement of the parts and steps, numerical expressions and numerical values ​​set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention. At the same time, it should be understood that, for ease of description, the sizes of the various parts shown in the accompanying drawings are not drawn according to actual proportional relationships. The technology, methods and equipment known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but in appropriate cases, the technology, methods and equipment should be considered as part of the specification. In all examples shown and discussed here, any specific value should be interpreted as being merely exemplary, rather than as a limitation. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar numbers and letters represent similar items in the following figures, and therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent figures.

[0039] In the description of the present invention, it needs to be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 4 The utility model is a mash receiving conveyor, comprising a bracket 1, a mash bucket 2, a conveyor 3, a discharge port 4, and a disintegration assembly. The bracket 1 is fixed with a left mounting plate and a right mounting plate. The mash bucket 2 is provided on one side of the bracket 1 for receiving the mash. The conveyor 3 is provided below the mash bucket 2 and is connected to the mash bucket 2. The discharge port 4 is provided below the output end of the conveyor 3. The disintegration assembly is provided above the conveyor 3 and comprises at least one fork assembly 5 and a driving mechanism for driving the same. The rotation centerline of the fork assembly 5 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor 3. The assemblies are arranged in rows on the left mounting plate. The left mounting plate is provided with a first waist groove 53 for adjusting the spacing between adjacent fork assemblies 5. The rows of fork assemblies 5 are gradually tilted from bottom to top toward the mash bucket. The spacing between each group of disintegration assemblies can be adjusted according to the viscosity of the material and the number of rounds. The tilted arrangement of the fork assembly 5 is mainly based on the state of the material after it is poured into the conveyor, that is, the tilted pile angle of the piled material, which facilitates the simultaneous breaking of the materials at the edge of the pile to prevent the collapse and uneven breaking of the materials below.

[0043] A gate 6 is installed in front of the disintegration assembly and is fixedly connected to the bracket 1. An adjustable baffle 7 is installed in front of the gate 6 and is mounted on the side panel of the hopper 2 in a sliding manner. The gate 6 is mainly used to block the material, acting as a gate. The size of the adjustable baffle 7 is mainly adjusted according to the weight and volume of the material each time it is poured into the conveyor. If there is too much material and it is easy to overflow from the top, the adjustable baffle 7 can block it, effectively ensuring the outlet cross-sectional area, eliminating the peak of the piled material, and taking into account the production and conveying efficiency.

[0044] An adjusting screw 8 is fixed to the adjustable baffle 7. A door frame 9 is fixed to the bracket 1, and the adjusting screw 8 is connected to the door frame 9. The adjusting screw 8 can be directly threaded into the door frame 9. As an embodiment of the present invention, the adjusting screw 8 passes through a through hole in the door frame 9 and is engaged with a limit nut 10. There are two limit nuts 10, which abut the upper and lower sides of the door frame 9, thereby ensuring the positioning of the adjusting screw 8.

[0045] The bracket 1 is provided with an inclined shield, which includes a shield body 11 and a shield door 12. The shield door 12 is provided with a handle, which can be pulled to open the shield door 12. As the scattering assembly rotates, the material will be splashed, and the inclined shield door can prevent the blocked material from rebounding and falling to the outlet.

[0046] The driving mechanism includes a motor, and transmission is achieved between adjacent fork assemblies 5 through chains and sprockets. The sprocket is arranged on the right mounting plate, and the right mounting plate is provided with a second waist groove 55 for installing and adjusting the tensioning sprocket 54. In this embodiment, chain transmission is adopted between the fork assemblies 5, and they are synchronized in series. If the gap needs to be adjusted, a tensioning sprocket 54 can be added accordingly. The tensioning sprocket 54 can be installed in the second waist groove 55. After the tensioning sprocket 54 is adjusted to the tightness, all the sprockets can be fixed. And as an embodiment, if Figures 5 to 8 The second waist groove 55 for installing the tensioning sprocket 54 and the first waist groove 53 for installing the fork assembly 5 are perpendicular to each other.

[0047] For example, for sauce-flavor liquor, the seven rounds have different material viscosities in each round, so the spacing can be adjusted according to actual production needs. If the material has low viscosity, good granularity, and good fluidity, the spacing can be adjusted larger; while in the middle rounds, it can be adjusted smaller.

[0048] As an embodiment of the present invention, the fork assembly 5 includes a main shaft 51 and a rake body 52 disposed on the main shaft 51. The fork assembly 5 can also adopt a rotating member of other structural forms, such as a blade type or a curved roller type. As another embodiment of the present invention, Figure 9 The fork assembly 5 uses a straight rod and round bar fork, and the forks between each group are staggered, which can also prevent the material from being blocked and solidified.

[0049] A protective net door 13 is provided above the scattering assembly. The protective net door 13 can play a protective role on the one hand, and can also observe the internal scattering situation in addition. The protective net door 13 can also be opened.

[0050] A water receiving tray 14 is provided below the conveyor 3. The water receiving tray 14 is located below the conveyor 3 and can receive the water flowing down from the conveyor 3.

[0051] That is, the fork assembly 5 of this embodiment rotates synchronously. Of course, a speed reduction mechanism can be provided according to actual needs to change it to differential motion, that is, the three fork assemblies rotate at different speeds.

[0052] Working principle:

[0053] The mash falls from the mash bucket 2 onto the conveyor 3 , and the mash passes under the adjustable baffle 7 or the gate 6 , is broken up by the breaking assembly, and then falls into the discharge port 4 .

[0054] The above are only preferred specific implementation methods of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to them. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, and they should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
