Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of material addition device technology, and more particularly to a device for quantitatively adding materials. Background Technology
[0002] In the production process of a smelter, the precise addition of materials is crucial. Accurate material addition contributes to the stability of product quality, improves the reliability and repeatability of the production process, and increases production efficiency.
[0003] Traditional manual addition methods are prone to inaccurate measurement and large errors, and also suffer from low efficiency, high labor intensity, and high safety hazards. These problems affect production speed, product quality, and employee safety, failing to effectively guarantee production efficiency and product quality.
[0004] Existing quantitative material addition devices typically use metering containers to add materials, ensuring consistent amounts each time. These devices also utilize weighing sensors to further guarantee consistent quantities. However, most existing quantitative material addition devices measure material weight by mounting the weighing sensor at the bottom of the device and weighing the entire unit. This means the device can only operate on the ground and is unsuitable for hoisting operations, leading to numerous inconveniences and reduced production efficiency during the addition of smelting materials. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address or partially address the problems existing in related technologies, this application provides a device for quantitatively adding materials, which can ensure consistent material amounts added each time, achieve refined production, and guarantee production efficiency and product quality.

The weighing hopper is installed on the weighing platform, wherein the weighing platform is installed at the bottom inside the hopper, and the size of the weighing hopper corresponds to the size of the inside of the hopper. A discharge port is provided on the front wall of the weighing hopper.
[0009] The discharge device includes: a mounting frame, an electric cylinder, and a discharge baffle. The mounting frame is installed on the front wall of the hopper. Slide grooves are provided on both sides of the mounting frame. The discharge baffle is installed in the slide grooves. The electric cylinder is installed on the top of the mounting frame. The movable rod of the electric cylinder is fixedly connected to the discharge baffle and drives the discharge baffle to move up and down in the slide grooves by driving the electric cylinder.
[0010] The controller establishes electrical connections with both the weighing platform and the electric cylinder.
[0011] Optionally, in some embodiments of this application:
[0012] The hopper is equipped with a discharge block at its outlet, and the discharge block has a chamfer.

[0046] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of a control structure for controller 4 in an embodiment of this application.
[0047] See Figure 1-7 An apparatus for quantitatively adding materials, comprising:
[0048] The hopper 1 is an inclined discharge hopper 1 with a discharge port on the front wall of the hopper 1 and lifting rings 101 on both sides of the top of the hopper 1.
[0049] In this embodiment, two lifting rings 101 are provided on both sides of the top of the hopper 1 to facilitate the hoisting of the hopper 1.
[0050] Specifically: a discharge block 102 is provided at the discharge port of the hopper 1, and a chamfer is provided on the discharge block 102.
[0051] In this embodiment, by setting a discharge block 102 with chamfers, the jamming phenomenon of materials during discharge can be effectively reduced, and the discharge speed of materials can be improved.
[0052] Specifically: The bottom of the hopper 1 is provided with a discharge chute 103.
[0053] In this embodiment, by setting the discharge chute 103, it is possible to prevent material from overflowing during the discharge process, reduce material waste, and ensure construction safety.
[0054] Weighing device 2 is installed inside the hopper 1 and includes a weighing platform 201 and a weighing hopper 202. The weighing hopper 202 is installed on the weighing platform 201, wherein the weighing platform 201 is installed at the bottom inside the hopper 1, and the size of the weighing hopper 202 corresponds to the size of the inside of the hopper 1. A discharge port is provided on the front wall of the weighing hopper 202.
[0055] In this embodiment, by installing the weighing device 2 into the hopper 1, the material fed into the hopper 1 enters the weighing hopper 202, where it is weighed by the weighing platform 201. This ensures consistent material quantity added each time, achieving refined production and guaranteeing both production efficiency and product quality. Simultaneously, by detecting the weight of the material in the weighing hopper 202, overflow of the hopper 1 due to excessive material feeding can be prevented. Specifically, when the detected weight exceeds a set threshold, feeding is stopped and an alarm is issued, effectively ensuring the safety of material hoisting and conveying.
[0056] Specifically: The weighing bucket 202 is provided with lifting rods 203 on both sides, the top of the lifting rods 203 is bent and provided with lifting holes 204.
[0057] In this embodiment, by setting the lifting rod 203, the weighing device 2 can be easily placed into the hopper 1, and the operator can grab the weighing hopper 202 through the lifting hole 204, which simplifies the installation and disassembly process and facilitates later maintenance.
[0058] Specifically: discharge angle plates 205 are installed on both sides of the discharge port inside the weighing hopper 202.
[0059] In this embodiment, by installing the discharge angle plate 205, discharge blockage can be avoided, allowing the material to slide smoothly out of the discharge port of the weighing hopper 202.
[0060] The discharge device 3 includes: a mounting frame 301, an electric cylinder 302, and a discharge baffle 303. The mounting frame 301 is installed on the front wall of the hopper 1. The mounting frame 301 has sliding grooves on both sides. The discharge baffle 303 is installed in the sliding grooves. The electric cylinder 302 is installed on the top of the mounting frame 301. The movable rod of the electric cylinder 302 is fixedly connected to the discharge baffle 303. The electric cylinder 302 drives the discharge baffle 303 to move up and down in the sliding groove.
[0061] In this embodiment, by installing a discharge device 3, a drive electric cylinder 302 moves the discharge baffle 303 up and down in the chute. When the drive electric cylinder 302 moves the discharge baffle 303 downward, it blocks the discharge port of the hopper 1 to prevent material from flowing out. When the drive electric cylinder 302 moves the discharge baffle 303 upward, it opens the discharge port of the hopper 1, allowing material to flow out smoothly. Simultaneously, through precise control of the electric cylinder 302, the discharge baffle 303 can stop at different positions, achieving precise adjustment of the discharge port opening and thus controlling the discharge volume.
[0062] The controller 4 is electrically connected to the weighing platform 201 and the electric cylinder 302.
[0063] In this embodiment, the controller 4 is a PLC controller 4. By using the controller 4 for unified control, efficient automated control can be achieved.
[0064] The technical solutions in this application have the following beneficial effects:
[0065] This application installs a weighing device 2 into the hopper 1. Material fed into the hopper 1 enters the weighing hopper 202, where it is weighed by the weighing platform 201. This ensures consistent material quantity added each time, achieving refined production and guaranteeing both production efficiency and product quality. Simultaneously, by detecting the weight of material in the weighing hopper 202, overflow of material from the hopper 1 can be prevented. Specifically, when the detected weight exceeds a set threshold, conveying stops and an alarm is issued, effectively ensuring the safety of material hoisting and conveying.
[0066] This application achieves material conveying control in the symmetrical hopper 202 by installing a discharge device 3, which drives the discharge baffle 303 to move up and down in the chute via a drive electric cylinder 302. Simultaneously, through precise control of the electric cylinder 302, the discharge baffle 303 can stop at different positions, achieving precise adjustment of the discharge port opening and thus controlling the discharge volume.
