[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, one embodiment of this utility model provides a wood chip pre-steaming tank, including: a pre-steaming tank body 1, a feeding screw 2, a lifting plate 3, a feeding motor 4, and a wood plug screw 5. The lower part of the pre-steaming tank body 1 is connected to the wood plug screw 5. The feeding screw 2 is installed in the middle of the pre-steaming tank body 1, and the upper part of the feeding screw 2 is connected to the feeding motor 4. The lower part of the feeding screw 2 extends above the connection between the pre-steaming tank body 1 and the wood plug screw 5. The top of the pre-steaming tank body 1 is provided with multiple guide rods 6, which are parallel to the feeding screw 2. The lifting plate 3 is slidably installed on the guide rods 6, and the feeding motor 4 is installed on the upper part of the lifting plate 3. The lower part of the lifting plate 3 is connected to the top of the pre-steaming tank body 1 through a telescopic rod 7.
[0019] When pre-steaming wood chips, the wood chips are fed into the pre-steaming tank body 1 through the feed inlet 11 via a conveyor belt. Steam is then introduced, and the wood chips are softened by the steam. The wood plug screw 5 continuously pushes the wood chips into the cooking chamber from the bottom of the pre-steaming tank body 1, causing the wood chips in the pre-steaming tank body 1 to move downward under the action of gravity. Due to friction and adhesion between the wood chips, bridging can easily form at the connection between the pre-steaming tank body 1 and the wood plug screw 5, making it impossible to feed the wood chips. Therefore, while feeding the wood chips, the feeding motor 4 needs to be started to rotate the feeding screw 2 and drive the spiral plate 9 at the bottom of the feeding screw 2 to rotate, thereby generating a downward thrust on the wood chips and avoiding bridging. Compared with the fixed feeding screw 2, the feeding screw 2 of this device can move up and down under the drive of the telescopic rod 7. When pushing the wood chips, the thrust can be generated by the rotation of the spiral plate 9 and the drive of the telescopic rod 7, which improves the efficiency of pushing the wood chips. Furthermore, when the machine needs to be shut down for maintenance or other reasons, the pre-steaming tank body 1 will be short of material due to the cessation of wood chip feeding. The telescopic rod 7 can be moved down so that the telescopic rod 7 can completely push the wood chips at the bottom of the pre-steaming tank body 1 into the wood plug screw 5, thus avoiding waste of residual material and problems that affect maintenance.
[0020] Preferably, the feeding motor 4 is connected to the feeding screw 2 through the first reducer 8. The first reducer 8 can amplify the torque, so that the feeding screw 2 can drive the spiral plate 9 to rotate, thereby generating axial thrust and pushing the wood chips from the pre-steaming tank body 1 into the wood plug spiral 5.
[0021] Specifically, a spiral plate 9 is provided at the lower part of the feeding screw 2. The spiral plate 9 is coaxially installed at the lower part of the feeding screw 2 by welding. The feeding screw 2 drives the spiral plate 9 to rotate under the drive of the feeding motor 4, thereby applying a downward thrust to the wood chips through the spiral plate 9, accelerating the discharge of materials and avoiding the problem of wood chips bridging.
[0022] In one specific embodiment, the guide rod 6 is provided with limiting rings 10 above and below the lifting plate 3. The limiting rings 10 are installed on the guide rod 6 by threads or welding, which can prevent the lifting plate 3 from slipping off the guide rod 6, and at the same time prevent the lifting plate 3 from falling too far and causing the lower part of the feeding screw 2 to hit the pre-steam tank body 1 or the wooden plug screw 5.
[0023] Preferably, the pre-steaming tank body 1 is provided with a feed inlet 11 at the top, so that wood chips can enter the pre-steaming tank body 1 from the feed inlet 11. A sleeve 12 is provided between the feeding screw 2 and the top of the pre-steaming tank body 1. The sleeve 12 is lined with a copper liner or a polytetrafluoroethylene liner. It is soft and has a low coefficient of friction with the stainless steel feeding screw, which can protect the feeding screw 2.
[0024] In a preferred embodiment, a wooden plug screw 5 is provided with a wooden plug screw motor 13 and a second reducer 14 on one side. The wooden plug screw motor 13 is connected to the wooden plug screw 5 through the second reducer 14. The wooden plug screw 5 is driven to rotate by the wooden plug screw motor 13 and the second reducer 14, so that the pre-steamed wood chips are sent into the cooking chamber for formal cooking. The wooden plug screw 5 is conical, which squeezes the wood chips during feeding to reduce the moisture content of the wood chips.
[0025] Preferably, the telescopic rod 7 is a hydraulic telescopic rod or an electric telescopic rod. The telescopic rod 7 provides power to move the lifting plate 3, the feeding motor 4, and the feeding screw 2, thereby improving the efficiency of pushing materials.
[0026] Of course, there may be other implementations of this utility model. Based on this implementation, other implementations obtained by those skilled in the art without any creative effort are all within the scope of protection of this utility model.
