[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a filtration mechanism for SMC raw material processing includes a feeding pipe 1, which includes a discharge bend 11 and a longitudinal pipe 12. The longitudinal pipe 12 is installed at the lower end of the discharge bend 11 and is sealed and fixedly connected to the discharge bend 11. A horizontal sleeve 2 is fixedly fitted on the discharge bend 11, and a longitudinal sleeve 3 is fixedly fitted on the longitudinal pipe 12. A horizontal shell 4 is horizontally provided on the lower end face of the longitudinal pipe 12, and a driving component 5 for driving the horizontal shell 4 to rotate is fixedly installed on the horizontal sleeve 2. Two sets of filter screen covers 6 are installed on the horizontal shell 4, and the filter screen covers 6 are detachably and fixedly connected to the horizontal shell 4. By designing the feeding pipe 1 as a structure that combines a discharge bend 11 and a longitudinal pipe 12, it can be stably installed on the raw material box for easy and stable discharge of raw materials. Simultaneously, a horizontal sleeve 2 is fitted and fixed onto the discharge bend 11, providing protection for the discharge bend 11 and also serving as a mounting point for the drive component 5. Similarly, a longitudinal sleeve 3 is fitted and fixed onto the longitudinal pipe 12, providing protection for the longitudinal pipe 12. The longitudinal sleeve 3 is fixed to the lower end face of the horizontal sleeve 2. Thus, the longitudinal sleeve 3 and the horizontal sleeve 2 function as a single unit, ensuring the stable discharge of the material. The overall strength of pipe 11 and longitudinal pipe 12 ensures stable discharge of raw materials during the discharge process through feeding pipe 1. A horizontal shell 4 is horizontally installed at the lower end of longitudinal pipe 12, allowing for easy installation of a filter cover 6. This ensures the filter cover 6 mates with the lower end of longitudinal pipe 12, effectively filtering the raw materials discharged through longitudinal pipe 12. Furthermore, a drive unit 5 is fixedly installed on the horizontal sleeve 2, allowing the horizontal shell 4 to rotate 180° when the filter cover 6 needs to be replaced. The replaced filter cover 6 can then be easily removed from the horizontal shell 4 for quick and easy cleaning.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the horizontal sleeve 2 includes a horizontal plate 21 and a horizontal collar 22 sleeved on the discharge bend 11. The horizontal collar 22 is installed on the lower end face of the horizontal plate 21 and is fixedly connected to the horizontal plate 21. By designing the horizontal sleeve 2 into a structure in which the horizontal plate 21 and the horizontal collar 22 cooperate, it can be easily fixed to the discharge bend 11 by sleeved on the horizontal collar 22 when in use, while the horizontal plate 21 ensures the stable installation of the drive component 5.

[0029] Reference Figure 3As shown, the longitudinal sleeve 3 includes a bent rod 31 and a longitudinal collar 32. The head of the bent rod 31 is fixedly installed on the lower end face of the horizontal plate 21 away from the horizontal collar 22. The longitudinal collar 32 is sleeved on the longitudinal tube 12 and fixedly installed at the lower end of the bent rod 31. By designing the longitudinal sleeve 3 into a structure in which the bent rod 31 and the longitudinal collar 32 cooperate, it can be easily fixed to the longitudinal tube 12 by the longitudinal collar 32, while the bent rod 31 ensures a stable connection with the horizontal plate 21. Brackets 311 supporting the outer ring shell 41 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the bent rod 31, and the brackets 311 are fixedly connected to the bent rod 31. By symmetrically installing brackets 311 on both sides of the bent rod 31, the brackets 311 can support the outer ring shell 41 during use, ensuring that the horizontal shell 4 can stably fit against the lower end face of the longitudinal tube 12.

[0030] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the horizontal shell 4 includes an outer ring shell 41 and a central plate 42. The central plate 42 is installed in the outer ring shell 41 and is fixedly connected to the outer ring shell 41. Two sets of placement grooves 411 for installing the filter screen cover 6 are provided in the middle of the outer ring shell 41. An annular support plate 412 supporting the filter screen cover 6 is provided in the placement groove 411, and the annular support plate 412 is integrally formed with the outer ring shell 41. By designing the horizontal shell 4 into a structure where the outer ring shell 41 and the central plate 42 cooperate, the central plate 42 is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer ring shell 41 for easy installation. This facilitates the installation of the filter screen cover 6 through the placement grooves 411 on the central plate 42. Simultaneously, the annular support plate 412 in the placement grooves 411 supports the filter screen cover 6. Thus, when the filter screen cover 6 is installed in the placement grooves 411, the upper surface of the filter screen cover 6 is flush with the upper surface of the central plate 42, facilitating initial rotation and adjustment.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the driving component 5 includes a motor 51 and a driving rod 52. The motor 51 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the horizontal plate 21. The upper end of the driving rod 52 is connected to the output end of the motor 51, and the lower end of the driving rod 52 is fixedly connected to the center of the central plate 42. By designing the driving component 5 as a structure in which the motor 51 and the driving rod 52 cooperate, it is easy to use. The motor 51 can drive the driving rod 52 to rotate and adjust, and then the driving rod 52 can drive the horizontal shell 4 to rotate and adjust.

[0032] In this embodiment, during actual use, the feed pipe 1 is installed on the raw material barrel, so that the raw material on the raw material barrel can be stably guided out through the feed pipe 1. The filter screen cover 6 is installed in the placement groove 411 of the horizontal shell 4. Then, the driving component 5 drives the horizontal shell 4 to rotate, so that the filter screen cover 6 is rotated directly below the feed pipe 1, and the filtration operation can be stably started. After the filter screen cover 6 has been filtering for a certain period of time, it can be replaced. The driving component 5 drives the horizontal shell 4 to rotate 180°, so that the new filter screen cover 6 can be rotated under the feed pipe 1. The filter screen cover 6 used during use can be rotated out, and the operator can take it out for quick cleaning, which can ensure normal filtration use of the equipment without stopping the machine.

[0033] The above are preferred embodiments of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make changes and modifications to the above embodiments. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. Any obvious improvements, substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
