Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of filter press mechanisms, and in particular to a feeding robot. Background Art

[0002] During the feeding process of the single-chamber filter press, the pump pumps the material from the main feed pipe into the branch feed pipe; as more and more material is fed into the filter plate, the material concentration in the main feed pipe becomes higher and higher; after the feeding is completed, the unloading process takes a long time, so the material will slowly settle to the bottom of the pipe, thus affecting the speed and safety of the next feeding.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to clean the material on the inner wall of the main feed pipe. The main steps are: add a backflush pipe at the end of the main feed pipe, and after the filter plate is unloaded, backflush the inside of the main feed pipe through the backflush pipe to blow the material in the main feed pipe into the material collection pool, thereby completing the initial cleaning of the main feed pipe; and then use the backflush pipe to flush clean water into the main feed pipe through backwashing to flush the main feed pipe, so that the remaining material in the main feed pipe is discharged to the outside with the clean water, thereby completing the cleaning of the main feed pipe.

[0004] However, since the cleaning of the material on the inner wall of the main feed pipe requires additional backflushing and backwashing steps, more steps are required; this increases the time for process disposal and reduces work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to improve the cleaning efficiency of materials on the inner wall of the main feeding pipe, the present application provides a feeding robot.

[0006] The present application provides a feeding robot that adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A feeding robot includes a feeding pipe, a backflush pipe and a cleaning component. The backflush pipe is installed at the end of the feeding pipe and is used to introduce clean water into the feeding pipe. The cleaning component is movably installed in the backflush pipe, and the outer wall of the cleaning component abuts against the inner wall of the feeding pipe. Before the main feeding pipe enters the material, the cleaning component is located at the end of the feeding pipe away from the backflush pipe.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when the single-chamber feed filter press is fed, the material enters the feed pipe through the pump; since the cleaning component is at the end of the feed pipe away from the backwash pipe, the cleaning component is pushed to the end of the feed pipe under the material feed pressure, and a sealing surface is formed with the end of the feed pipe under the action of pressure, so that the material can pass through the feed pipe into each branch feed pipe.

[0009] After the single-chamber filter press discharges, clean water is introduced into the feed pipe through the backflush pipe. The cleaning component, driven by the clean water, returns the material in the feed pipe to the material collection tank. Simultaneously, the clean water flushes the remaining material in the feed pipe and discharges it to the outside through the branch feed pipe, completing the cleaning of the feed pipe. The installation of the cleaning component reduces the number of cleaning steps required for the feed pipe, thus reducing process time and improving work efficiency.

[0010] Optionally, the cleaning component includes an elastic sleeve and a supporting component located inside the elastic sleeve, and the outer wall of the elastic sleeve is used to abut against the inner wall of the main material pipe.

[0011] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, the supporting component is rigid and the elastic sleeve is elastic, so that the elastic sleeve can be tightly pressed against the inner wall of the feed pipe, thereby improving the sealing effect of the cleaning component on the inner wall of the feed pipe; when clean water is introduced into the feed pipe through the backflush pipe, the cleaning component can scrape all the materials in the feed pipe into the material collection pool, thereby reducing material waste; and reducing the possibility that clean water and materials will enter the material collection pool under the push of the cleaning component.

[0012] Optionally, the supporting component is spherical in shape.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the support component to a spherical shape, the contact area between the cleaning component and the inner wall of the feed pipe can be reduced, thereby improving the smoothness of the movement of the cleaning component in the feed pipe.

[0014] Optionally, the support component includes a connecting column and a plurality of support members movably mounted on the connecting column, and all the support members are spaced apart along the length direction of the connecting column; the support member includes a plurality of connecting rods and a plurality of support plates, and the connecting rods are movably mounted on the connecting column; the support plate is fixed to one end of the connecting rod for abutting against the inner wall of the elastic sleeve, and the support plates of two adjacent groups of the support members are staggered; the connecting column is provided with a driving member for driving all the connecting rods to move.

[0015] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, a driving assembly is used to drive the connecting rod to move on the connecting column, which can drive the support plate to move toward one side of the elastic sleeve, so that the elastic sleeve is pressed against the inner wall of the feed pipe; and by staggering the support plates of adjacent support members, the sealing performance of the cleaning assembly to the inner wall of the feed pipe can be improved, and the connecting rod is slidably installed on the connecting column, which can enable the cleaning assembly to seal feed pipes with different inner diameters, thereby improving the practicality of the cleaning assembly.

[0016] Optionally, the driving member includes a screw and a gear, a driving groove is provided inside the connecting column, and the gear is rotatably installed in the driving groove; a movable groove connected to the driving groove is provided on the outer wall of the connecting column, one end of the connecting rod is passed through the movable groove and enters the driving groove, and a tooth groove is provided on the outer wall of the connecting rod that engages with the gear; a first threaded hole is provided on the connecting column, and a second threaded hole is provided on the gear, and the screw is threadably installed in the first threaded hole and the second threaded hole.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the screw thread in the second threaded hole can rotate the gear in the drive slot. The tooth groove of the connecting rod meshes with the outer wall of the gear, allowing the connecting rod to slide in the movable hole, thereby moving the support plate toward or away from the elastic sleeve. Furthermore, by matching the screw with the first and second threaded holes, the gear can be prevented from rotating freely in the drive slot.

[0018] Optionally, a mounting cover is provided at one end of the connecting column, and the mounting cover is used to cover the surface of the first threaded hole; the inner wall of the mounting cover is provided with a first threaded portion, and the connecting column is provided with a second threaded portion, and the first threaded portion and the second threaded portion cooperate with each other.

[0019] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, the mounting cover covers the surface of the first threaded hole in cooperation with the first threaded portion and the second threaded portion, which can reduce the exposure of the screw to the inside of the feed pipe; thereby reducing the possibility of material entering between the screw and the inner wall of the first threaded hole, and improving the smoothness of the screw rotation.

[0020] Optionally, the outer wall of the elastic sleeve is coated with a nano coating.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution and providing a nano coating on the outer wall of the elastic sleeve, the outer wall of the elastic sleeve can be made smooth and not easily sticky to materials, making it easy to clean the cleaning component.

[0022] Optionally, a disassembly section is provided at one end of the feed pipe away from the backflushing pipe, and the disassembly section and the feed pipe are connected via a connecting portion.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the disassembly section is detachably installed on the feed pipe, so that the cleaning component can be taken out of the outside for cleaning and maintenance before the material enters the feed pipe, thereby improving the sealing effect between the cleaning component and the inner wall of the feed pipe.

[0024] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0025] 1. By setting up a cleaning component, the cleaning component is pushed into the end of the feed pipe under the material feeding pressure, and when cleaning the feed pipe, clean water is introduced into the feed pipe through the backflush pipe; the cleaning component returns the material in the feed pipe to the material collection pool under the push of the clean water, and at the same time, the clean water flushes the remaining material in the feed pipe and discharges it to the outside through the branch feed pipe, thereby completing the cleaning of the feed pipe; by setting up the cleaning component, the cleaning steps of the feed pipe can be reduced, thereby reducing the process disposal time and improving work efficiency;

[0026] 2. By providing a driving member and a supporting member, the driving member can drive the connecting rod to slide and be installed on the connecting column, so that the cleaning component can seal the feed pipes with different inner diameters, thereby improving the practicality of the cleaning component.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The following is combined with Figure 1-4 This application is described in further detail.

[0033] Example 1:

[0034] An embodiment of the present application discloses a feeding robot.

[0035] Reference Figure 1A feeding robot includes a feeding pipe 1, a backflush pipe 2 and a cleaning component 3. A feeding pump is provided at one end of the feeding pipe 1. The feeding pump and the feeding pipe 1 are connected through a feeding pipe 11. The feeding pump is used to pass the material into the feeding pipe 1; a plurality of branch feeding pipes 12 are provided in the middle of the feeding pipe 1 to pass the material in the feeding pipe 1 into the filter plate.

[0036] The backflush pipe 2 is connected to the end of the feed pipe 1 away from the feed pipe 11. A cleaning valve is provided at the end of the backflush pipe 2 close to the feed pipe 1. By opening and closing the cleaning valve, the clean water in the backflush pipe 2 can be passed into the feed pipe 1.

[0037] The cleaning component 3 is movably installed in the feed pipe 1. The cleaning component 3 includes an elastic sleeve 4 and a supporting component 5 arranged inside the elastic sleeve 4. The elastic sleeve 4 is made of rubber material, which is elastic and can be tightly pressed against the inner wall of the feed pipe 1; in other embodiments, the elastic sleeve 4 can be made of silicone material or other materials, as long as it is made of elastic material.

[0038] The outer wall of the elastic sleeve 4 is coated with a nano coating 41. The nano coating 41 forms an extremely thin and strong protective layer on the surface of the elastic sleeve 4, which can make the surface of the elastic sleeve 4 smoother; it is difficult for materials to adhere to the surface of the elastic sleeve 4, reducing the situation where materials adhere to the surface of the elastic sleeve 4 for a long time, and making the surface of the elastic sleeve 4 easy to clean.

[0039] The shape of the support component 5 can be set to be spherical or cylindrical. In this embodiment, the support component 5 is set to be spherical; setting the support component 5 to be spherical can reduce the contact area with the inner wall of the feed pipe 1 and increase the smoothness of the sliding of the cleaning component 3 in the feed pipe 1.

[0040] The implementation principle of Example 1 of the present application is:

[0041] When the single-chamber feed filter press is fed, the material enters the feed pipe 1 through the pump; since the cleaning component 3 is at the end of the feed pipe 1 away from the backwash pipe 2, the cleaning component 3 is pushed to the end of the feed pipe 1 under the material feeding pressure, and forms a sealing surface with the end of the feed pipe 1 under the action of pressure, so that the material can pass through the feed pipe 1 into each branch feed pipe 12.

[0042] After the single-chamber feed filter press is discharged, clean water is introduced into the feed pipe 1 through the backflush pipe 2. The cleaning assembly 3, under the push of the clean water, returns the material in the feed pipe 1 to the material collection tank. Simultaneously, the clean water flushes the remaining material in the feed pipe 1 and discharges it to the outside through the branch feed pipe 12, thus completing the cleaning of the feed pipe 1. The provision of the cleaning assembly 3 reduces the number of cleaning steps required for the feed pipe 1, thereby reducing process time and improving work efficiency.

[0043] Example 2:

[0044] An embodiment of the present application discloses a feeding robot.

[0045] Reference Figure 2 The difference between Example 2 of the present application and Example 1 is that a disassembly section 13 is provided between the feed pipe 1 and the feed pipe 11. Before the material enters the feed pipe 1, the cleaning component 3 is located in the disassembly section 13. Both ends of the disassembly section 13 are connected to the feed pipe 1 and the feed pipe 11 through a connecting portion 14; the connecting portion 14 includes a bolt 16 and two flanges 15, and the two flanges 15 are respectively provided on the feed pipe 1 and the disassembly section 13, and the bolt 16 is used to connect the two flanges 15; taking the connection portion 14 connecting the feed pipe 1 and the disassembly section 13 as an example, the connection portion 14 connecting the feed pipe 11 and the disassembly section 13 can be obtained in the same way.

[0046] By detachably installing the disassembly section 13 between the feed pipe 1 and the feed pipe 11, the cleaning component 3 can be taken out for cleaning and maintenance before the material enters the feed pipe 1, thereby improving the sealing effect between the cleaning component 3 and the inner wall of the feed pipe 1.

[0047] Reference Figure 3 The supporting component 5 includes a connecting column 51, a driving member 52 and a plurality of supporting members 53. The elastic sleeve 4 is wrapped around the outer wall of the connecting column 51. The two ends of the elastic sleeve 4 are adhered to the two ends of the connecting column 51, and there is a gap between the inner wall of the elastic sleeve 4 and the outer wall of the connecting column 51; an extension ring 511 is integrally formed at one end of the connecting column 51, and a second bolt 16 is provided on the outer wall of the extension ring 511; the extension ring 511 is sleeved with a mounting cover 6, and a first threaded portion is provided on the inner wall of the mounting cover 6, and the first threaded portion and the second threaded portion 514 cooperate with each other.

[0048] Reference Figure 4 The connecting column 51 is provided with a first threaded hole 512, the extension ring 511 is connected to the first bolt hole 16, and a driving groove 513 connected to the first threaded hole 512 is provided inside the connecting column 51; the driving member 52 includes a gear 521 and a screw 522, the gear 521 is rotatably installed inside the driving groove 513, and the gear 521 is provided with a second threaded hole 523 connected to the first threaded hole 512, and the screw 522 is threadedly installed in the first threaded hole 512 and the second threaded hole 523.

[0049] By rotating the screw 522, the screw 522 cooperates with the second threaded hole 523 to enable the gear 521 to rotate in the driving groove 513; and connecting the screw 522 with the first threaded hole 512 and the second threaded hole 523 can reduce the free rotation of the gear 521 in the driving groove 513.

[0050] All support members 53 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the connecting column 51, and the support members 53 include multiple connecting rods 531 and multiple support plates 532; in this embodiment, four groups of connecting rods 531 and support plates 532 are provided, and a movable hole 54 is opened on the outer wall of the connecting column 51. All movable holes 54 are arranged at intervals around the axis of the connecting column 51, and one end of the movable hole 54 is connected to the driving groove 513; the connecting rod 531 is passed through the movable hole 54 and enters the driving groove 513, and a tooth groove 533 is provided at one end of the connecting rod 531, and the tooth groove 533 is engaged with the outer wall of the tooth groove 533.

[0051] The support plate 532 is located between the elastic sleeve 4 and the connecting column 51 and is connected to one end of the connecting rod 531. The support plate 532 is used to drive the elastic sleeve 4 to press against the inner wall of the feed pipe 1; the support plates 532 of the two adjacent groups of support members 53 are staggered to maintain the sealing effect between the cleaning component 3 and the inner wall of the feed pipe 1.

[0052] The implementation principle of Example 2 of this application is:

[0053] The threaded engagement of the screw 522 in the second threaded hole 523 enables the gear 521 to rotate in the driving groove 513, so that the tooth groove 533 of the connecting rod 531 can slide in the movable hole 54 when engaged with the outer wall of the gear 521, thereby causing the support plate 532 to move closer to / away from one side of the elastic sleeve 4, thereby fine-tuning the outer diameter of the cleaning component 3, enabling the cleaning component 3 to seal the feed pipes 1 with different inner diameters, thereby improving the practicality of the cleaning component 3.

[0054] The above are preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
