Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of batching devices, and specifically relates to a batching device for gypsum board production. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of building materials manufacturing, gypsum board is a widely used lightweight board material, and the batching process in its production is crucial. The raw materials for gypsum board production typically include gypsum powder, additives, fiber materials, and other components. The precise proportioning and uniform mixing of these raw materials directly affect the physical properties and quality stability of the final product.

[0003] However, traditional batching equipment, such as mixing tanks and screw conveyors, while achieving preliminary mixing of raw materials to some extent, suffers from uneven vertical distribution of components due to differences in density, shape, and particle size. Heavier particles tend to settle at the bottom, while lighter particles rise to the top, resulting in uneven mixing caused by gravity stratification. To address this uneven mixing, especially when processing raw materials containing large particles or with significant differences in specific gravity, existing equipment can only improve the mixing effect by increasing mixing time and the number of mixing cycles. However, prolonged mixing not only increases energy consumption but may also damage the raw materials due to over-mixing, affecting the quality of the finished gypsum board.

[0004] In conclusion, designing a novel batching device that can effectively solve the problem of gravity stratification has broad market application prospects. Summary of the Invention

[0020] To better understand this utility model, the following is in conjunction with... Figures 1 to 4 The embodiments of this utility model will be explained in detail below.

[0021] It should be noted that the directions "front, back, left, right, up, down" mentioned in the text are all relative to the direction of the text. Figure 1 The directions are based on "front, back, left, right, up, and down". This utility model discloses a batching device for gypsum board production, comprising a batching tank 1 with a mixing chamber. The tank body is equipped with an inlet pipe 2 and an outlet pipe 3 communicating with the mixing chamber, used for inputting raw materials and outputting the mixed material, respectively. An internal gear ring 4 is fixedly installed at the top of the mixing chamber. A main gear 5 is located at the center of the internal gear ring 4. Multiple planetary gears 6 are distributed between the main gear 5 and the internal gear ring 4, forming a planetary gear transmission mechanism with the internal gear ring 4 and the main gear 5. A stirring shaft 7 is connected to the bottom of each planetary gear 6, and these stirring shafts 7 are used to stir the raw materials within the mixing chamber.

[0022] A fixedly connected rotating shaft 8 passes through the center of the main gear 5. A planetary support 9 is provided above the main gear 5 on the rotating shaft 8. The planetary support 9 is provided with connecting ends 10 that are rotatably connected to the planetary gears 6. These connecting ends 10 are used to support and rotate the planetary gears 6. A drive mechanism 13 is provided on the mixing tank 1 to drive the rotating shaft 8 to rotate. A coaxial screw conveyor shaft 11 is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the rotating shaft 8. At the same time, a conveying cylinder 12 that cooperates with the screw conveyor shaft 11 is provided at the bottom of the mixing chamber. The bottom end of the conveying cylinder 12 is not directly connected to the inner wall of the mixing chamber. It is connected by several supports so that the bottom and top ports of the conveying cylinder 12 remain open.

[0023] To optimize the mixing effect, each planetary gear 6 has an internal spline groove at its shaft center, and the mixing shaft 7 has an external spline that matches the internal spline groove, thus forming a sliding connection between the planetary gear 6 and the mixing shaft 7. Each connection end 10 has a through hole that mates with the corresponding mixing shaft 7. A telescopic mechanism is also provided between the mixing shaft 7 and the planetary gear 6 to adjust the length of the mixing shaft 7, thereby achieving uniform mixing of raw materials at different heights.

[0024] The telescopic mechanism includes a rotary joint 14, universal ball bearings 15, and a spreading spring 16. The rotary joint 14 is located at the top of the stirring shaft 7, and the universal ball bearings 15 are mounted at the top of the rotary joint 14. A spreading spring 16 is fitted onto the stirring shaft 7, with its two ends abutting against the rotary joint 14 and the planetary support 9, respectively. The top of the mixing tank 1 is provided with a top cover 17, and below the top cover 17 is an annular protruding end 18. The radius of the protruding end 18 is equal to the axial distance between the rotating shaft 8 and the stirring shaft 7. The bottom end face of the protruding end 18 is wavy and has ball bearing grooves 19 that match the universal ball bearings 15, used to guide the movement trajectory of the stirring shaft 7 during stirring.

[0025] The drive mechanism 13 preferably uses a motor capable of both forward and reverse rotation; the motor is equipped with a mounting bracket 21, which is connected to the top cover 17 by bolts. The motor drives the rotating shaft 8 to rotate, thereby driving the transmission mechanism of the main gear 5 and planetary gear 6. During rotation, the planetary gear 6 drives the stirring shaft 7 to stir the raw materials in the mixing chamber. At the same time, the expansion spring 16 and the universal ball bearing 15 in the telescopic mechanism, in conjunction with the wave-shaped extension end 18, allow the stirring shaft 7 to float up and down and rotate during the stirring process, thereby achieving uniform stirring of raw materials at different heights.

[0026] The discharge pipe 3 is located at the bottom of the batching tank 1 and is coaxially arranged with the conveying cylinder 12. The discharge pipe 3 is equipped with a discharge valve 23 to control the output of raw materials.

[0027] When the screw conveyor rotates forward, its function is to work with the conveying cylinder 12 to continuously transport the material from the bottom upward, allowing this material from the bottom to return to the top, thus preventing heavy raw materials from remaining at the bottom. When the screw conveyor rotates in reverse, its function is to work with the discharge pipe 3 to discharge the material from the bottom of the mixing chamber.

[0028] The bottom of the mixing tank 1 is designed as a funnel shape extending towards the bottom of the conveying cylinder 12, which helps the raw materials to be discharged smoothly.

[0029] In order to disperse the bottom material conveyed by the screw conveyor shaft 11, a conical guide shroud is provided on the shaft 8, so that the conveyed material is dispersed in all directions through the conical guide shroud 24 and then falls to the top of the material.

[0030] In addition, the bottom of the mixing tank 1 is also provided with a support base 25, and the bottom surface of the support base 25 is equipped with a shock-absorbing pad to reduce the vibration and noise generated during the mixing process.

[0031] The usage and principle of this utility model:

[0032] When using the batching device of this invention, various raw materials are first fed into the mixing chamber through the feed pipe 2. Then, the motor is started, and the motor drives the rotating shaft 8 to rotate, which in turn drives the main gear 5 and planetary gear 6 transmission mechanism to work. During the rotation of the planetary gear 6, the stirring shaft 7 is driven to stir the raw materials in the mixing chamber. At the same time, the spreading spring 16 and the universal ball bearing 15 in the telescopic mechanism, together with the wave-shaped protruding end 18, allow the stirring shaft 7 to float up and down and rotate during the stirring process, thereby achieving uniform stirring of raw materials at different heights.

[0033] During the mixing process, the screw conveyor shaft 11 rotates clockwise, continuously conveying the material from the bottom upwards in conjunction with the conveying cylinder 12. The conveyed material diffuses outwards through the conical guide shroud 24 before falling to the top, preventing gravity stratification. When discharging at the end of the mixing process, the discharge valve 23 is opened and the motor is reversed, causing the rotating shaft 8 to drive the screw conveyor shaft 11 in reverse. This, in conjunction with the funnel-shaped batching tank 1, conveys the material from the bottom to the discharge pipe 3, through which the material is smoothly discharged. Throughout the process, the up-and-down movement and rotation of the mixing shaft 7, along with the conveying action of the screw conveyor shaft 11, effectively prevents gravity stratification of the raw materials, ensuring the uniformity and stability of the mixing.
