DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] Example 1:
[0023] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a continuous metering device for bran materials includes a carrier body 1, which is the basis of all functional units and is a stand formed by splicing profiles. A pressure sensor 3 is provided between the metering hopper 2 and the carrier body 1, that is, the metering hopper 2 and the carrier body 1 are connected via the pressure sensor 3. The lower end of the metering hopper 2 is provided with a pressure-relieving arch breaker 4, which includes an arch-breaking shaft 401 provided in the metering hopper 2, and a pressure-relieving cover 402 provided on the upper end of the arch-breaking shaft 401. The pressure-relieving cover 402 is a conical structure with a larger bottom and a smaller top. The lower end of the arch-breaking shaft 401 is connected to the rotating ring 404 through a connecting plate 403. The rotating ring 404 is concentrically arranged with the arch-breaking shaft 401. The rotating ring 404 is connected to the outer ring of the slewing support 406 through a connecting frame 405. The outer ring of the slewing support 406 is provided with gear teeth 407, and the inner ring of the slewing support 406 is fixed to the outside of the metering hopper 2 The driving motor 408 is fixed on the fixed ring seat 201, and the metering hopper 2 is fixed. The output end of the driving motor 408 is provided with a driving gear 409 meshing with the gear teeth 407 of the slewing bearing 406. The driving motor 408 drives the driving gear 409 to rotate, so that the outer ring of the slewing bearing 406 rotates, thereby driving the arch breaking shaft 401 to rotate, and the pressure relief cover 402 rotates to stir the material in the metering hopper 2 to prevent the material from accumulating and being squeezed into agglomerates, causing flow difficulties, improving the characteristic that bran materials are easily squeezed into agglomerates, thereby enhancing fluidity, achieving uniform flow, and accurate metering.
[0024] The metering hopper 2 is connected to the quantitative discharger 6 via a support frame 5. That is, the quantitative discharger 6 is suspended at the lower end of the metering hopper 2, and the feed port of the quantitative discharger 6 is arranged corresponding to the rotating ring 404. The pressure sensor 3 is used to measure the metering hopper 1, the quantitative discharger 6, the material disposed within the metering hopper 1 and the quantitative discharger 6, the pressure relief arch breaker 4 disposed on the metering hopper 1, and the support frame 5 as a whole, thereby achieving overall static metering.
[0025] The quantitative discharger 6 can be selected from an O-type screw conveyor, specifically, Figure 4As shown, the quantitative discharger 6 comprises a discharging barrel 602, which is provided with an open end and a collecting cover 601 at the open end position. A rotating shaft 603 is arranged in the discharging barrel 602, and the end of the rotating shaft 603 away from the collecting cover 601 is rotatably mounted on the discharging barrel 602 in a cantilever state by a bearing. The rotating shaft 603 is driven by a driving motor 604, and the rotating shaft 603 is provided with a spiral blade 605.
[0026] The quantitative discharger 6 is arranged to realize uniform material conveying and quantitative discharging. Since the rotating shaft 603 of the quantitative discharger 6 is in a cantilever state, i.e., a cantilever structure “O” type spiral conveying device, the material is not extruded, and uniform discharging and avoidance of collapse are achieved.
[0027] Preferably, as shown in the drawings, Figure 4 As shown, the upper end inner wall of the rotating ring 404 is arranged at the outer wall of the discharge port of the lower end of the metering hopper 2, and the lower end outer wall of the rotating ring 404 is arranged at the inner side of the feeding port of the quantitative discharger 6.
[0028] The rotating ring 404 is arranged concentrically with the discharge port of the lower end of the metering hopper 2 and the feeding port of the quantitative discharger 6.
[0029] The outer wall of the discharge port of the lower end of the metering hopper 2 and the inner side of the feeding port of the quantitative discharger 6 are both provided with a sealing ring 10. By arranging the sealing ring 10, the gap between the rotating ring 404 and the discharge port of the lower end of the metering hopper 2 and the feeding port of the quantitative discharger 6 is reduced, the material leakage is prevented, and the dust emission is reduced.
[0030] Embodiment 2:
[0031] Different from embodiment 1, the metering hopper 2, the pressure relief arch breaker 4 and the quantitative discharger 6 are all arranged in two groups, and two material conveying paths are arranged for alternating metering and conveying of the material.
[0032] The carrying fuselage 1 is provided with a collecting hopper 7, and the discharge port of the quantitative discharger 6 is provided with a collecting cover 601. The lower end of the collecting cover 601 is arranged in the collecting hopper 7, the material discharged from the quantitative discharger 6 is conveyed to the collecting hopper 7 through the collecting hopper 7, and one-point discharging is realized.
[0033] The carrying fuselage 1 is provided with a bidirectional feeding screw conveyor 8, which is switched by forward and reverse rotation to respectively feed two groups of collecting hoppers 7. The bidirectional feeding screw conveyor 8 is provided with discharge ports 801 at both ends, and the two discharge ports 801 are respectively arranged corresponding to the feeding ports of the two groups of metering hoppers 2.
[0034] The discharge port 801 of the feeding screw conveyor 8 is connected with the feeding port of the metering hopper 2 through a flexible sealing ring 9.
[0035] In operation, the material is conveyed by the feeding screw conveyor 8 to different directions and enters the corresponding metering hopper 2 according to the specified flow direction, at this time, the pressure relief arch breaker 4 and the quantitative discharger 6 installed at the lower part of the metering hopper 2 are in standby state, the pressure sensor 3 monitors the change of the material quality, when reaching the set value, the feeding screw conveyor 8 stops feeding to this path and switches to another path; at the same time, the pressure relief arch breaker 4 and the quantitative discharger 6 of this path work, the material is uniformly sent out, and the quality detection data is accurately controlled and output according to the data detected by the pressure sensor 3. Due to the action of the pressure relief arch breaker 4, the material on the lower side of the pressure relief cover 402 hardly forms extrusion, and the material on the upper and lower sides of the pressure relief cover 402 is also difficult to form arching phenomenon, even if the arching phenomenon occurs, the rotation of the pressure relief cover 402 and the arch breaking shaft 401 can effectively break the arch.
[0036] Therefore, the material entering the quantitative discharger 6 is loose, since the quantitative discharger 6 is a cantilever structure "O" type spiral conveying device, it does not form extrusion to the material, and uniform discharging and avoiding collapse can be achieved.
[0037] The two-way conveying path alternately works to achieve the purpose of continuous metering and continuous uniform conveying, which is beneficial to the normal operation of the subsequent equipment.

The protection scope of the present application should be the technical solutions recited in the claims, including the equivalent replacement solutions of the technical features recited in the claims.
