[0022] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit its scope.

[0023] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the term "comprising" as used in this specification means the presence of the stated features, integers, steps, operations, parts, and / or components, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, parts, components, and / or groups thereof. It should be understood that when we say a part is "connected" to another part, it can be directly connected to the other part, or there may be intermediate parts. The term "and / or" as used herein includes all or any unit and all combinations of one or more associated listed items.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, this utility model relates to an anti-bridging hyperbolic visible hopper, including a hopper body 1 and a driving component 2. The diameter of the hopper body 1 gradually decreases from the upper end to the lower end. At least one inner sidewall of the hopper body 1 is a curved wall 11. The hopper body 1 is provided with a movable curved panel 3, and the curved panel 3 gradually extends inward from the upper end to the lower end. The curved panel 3 is directly opposite the curved wall 11 of the hopper body 1. The driving component 2 is fixed to the outer sidewall of the hopper body 1, and the driving component 2 is used to drive the curved panel 3 to move closer to and away from the curved wall 11.

[0025] In this invention, at least one inner wall of the hopper body 1 is a curved wall 11, which allows the material to flow more smoothly within the hopper body 1 and prevents material bridging that could hinder flow. Furthermore, the hopper body 1 is provided with a movable curved panel 3, and the driving component 2 can drive the curved panel 3 to move closer to and away from the curved wall 11 to further ensure that material bridging does not occur in the hopper body 1, ensuring smooth material flow and preventing static electricity accumulation.

[0026] In this embodiment, a fixed shaft 4 is connected between two inner sidewalls adjacent to the curved wall 11 inside the hopper body 1. The lower end of the curved panel 3 is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 4. The driving member 2 is used to drive the curved panel 3 to rotate so as to move closer to and away from the curved wall 11.

[0027] In this embodiment, a horizontal baffle 12 is provided at the top of the inner sidewall of the hopper body 1 that is opposite to the curved wall 11. When the top of the curved panel 3 abuts against the horizontal baffle 12, the curved panel 3 is restricted from continuing to rotate away from the curved wall 11, thereby preventing the curved panel 3 from hitting the inner wall of the hopper body 1.

[0028] Preferably, the horizontal baffle 12 is provided with a buffer pad 5 near one end of the curved panel 3. The buffer pad 5 is made of rubber or silicone, so that when the upper end of the curved panel 3 moves away from the curved wall 11 and collides with the horizontal baffle 12, the impact between the two is reduced.

[0029] In this embodiment, a connecting seat 8 is provided on the side of the curved panel 3 facing away from the curved wall 11. The connecting seat 8 includes a top plate 81, a bottom plate 82, and a back plate 83. The back plate 83 is spaced apart from the side of the curved panel 3 facing away from the curved wall 11. The top plate 81 is connected between the top of the back plate 83 and the side of the curved panel 3 facing away from the curved wall 11. The bottom plate 82 is connected between the bottom of the back plate 83 and the side of the curved panel 3 facing away from the curved wall 11. An active space 84 is formed between the back plate 83, the top plate 81, the bottom plate 82, and the curved panel 3. A connecting passage is formed along the height direction of the back plate 83. The drive component 2 is a push rod motor 21, which is fixed to the outer side wall of the hopper body 1 facing the curved wall 11. The output shaft 22 of the push rod motor 21 passes into the hopper body 1, and the end of the output shaft 22 passes into the active space 84 through the guide port 85. The end of the output shaft 22 located in the active space 84 is provided with a roller 23. The roller 23 is used to roll along the height direction in the active space 84, and the roller 23 can prevent the end of the output shaft 22 from exiting the active space 84.

[0030] The guide opening 85 on the back plate 83 extends along the height direction. The output shaft 22 of the push rod motor 21 is adapted to pass through the guide opening 85 of the back plate 83 and enters the movable space 84. Thus, the curved panel 3 can have a displacement in the height direction relative to the output shaft 22 of the push rod motor 21. Then, the rollers 23 are rotatably connected to both sides of the end of the output shaft 22 of the push rod motor 21 located in the movable space 84. Therefore, during the extension and retraction of the output shaft 22 of the push rod motor 21, the rollers 23 can roll in the movable space 84, which can smoothly drive the curved panel 3 to rotate in the hopper body 1. Moreover, the distance between the two rollers 23 is greater than the width of the guide opening 85. Thus, the rollers 23 can prevent the output shaft 22 of the push rod motor 21 from disengaging from the movable space 84, thereby ensuring a stable connection between the output shaft 22 of the push rod motor 21 and the curved panel 3.

[0031] Preferably, a horizontal mounting plate 13 is fixed on the outer side wall of the hopper body 1 on the side opposite to the curved wall 11, and the push rod motor 21 is fixed on the horizontal mounting plate 13.

[0032] In this embodiment, the anti-bridging hyperbolic visible hopper also includes a grounding wire 6. One end of the grounding wire 6 is connected to the side wall of the hopper body 1, and the other end of the grounding wire 6 is used to connect to the ground wire, thereby dissipating the static electricity generated by the friction of the material inside the hopper body 1 and preventing the material from clumping.

[0033] In this embodiment, at least one sidewall of the hopper body 1 is made of a transparent material, which is made of glass or acrylic material, so that the staff can clearly observe the remaining material and its flow.

[0034] In this embodiment, the two sides of the curved panel 3 are close to the two inner sidewalls of the hopper body 1 that are adjacent to the curved wall 11, thereby reducing the flow of material from the gap between the curved panel 3 and the inner wall of the hopper body 1 to the area of ​​the curved panel 3 facing away from the curved wall 11, so as to prevent the hopper body 1 from being blocked.

[0035] In this embodiment, a feeder 7 is connected to the opening at the lower end of the hopper body 1 to convey the material inside the hopper body 1.

[0036] In summary, compared with the prior art, the anti-bridging hyperbolic visible hopper of this utility model has a simple composition and can reduce the phenomenon of material bridging, thereby ensuring the smooth flow of materials within the hopper body.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
