Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pyrotechnics production technology, specifically to an anti-clogging powder feeding device. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of pyrotechnics, relatively low pressure is required to induce sliding between particles in the powder raw material, resulting in tighter filling, reduced volume, and further compression. This compression leads to decreased particle distance, particle breakage, and increased new surface area, resulting in increased interparticle bonding and ultimately the formation of tablets. During the conveying of powder raw materials, blockage is prone to occur. Current technologies employ stirring mechanisms in the feed channel to reduce the likelihood of blockage. However, for highly viscous materials that easily agglomerate and have poor flowability, blockage is particularly likely to occur at locations with gentle slopes in the feeding device and at diameter changes, especially at smaller diameter points. Even with eccentric hoppers and the addition of stirring blades and vibrators, the blockage problem remains unresolved, significantly impacting feeding efficiency. Furthermore, the stirring device occupies considerable space in the feed channel. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In order to overcome at least some of the defects in the prior art, this utility model provides an anti-clogging powder feeding device that occupies little space and uses airflow to blow the powder to reduce the probability of powder clogging and improve the feeding rate.
[0004] This utility model relates to an anti-clogging powder feeding device, including a straight cylindrical storage silo, an eccentric silo, and several porous fluidizers. The eccentric silo is connected to the lower side of the straight cylindrical storage silo, and the opening at the upper end of the eccentric silo is connected to the opening at the lower end of the straight cylindrical storage silo. The porous fluidizers are connected to the side of the eccentric silo, and the air inlet of the porous fluidizers is connected to an air inlet pipe. The bottom of the eccentric silo is connected to a feeding valve through an adapter.
[0005] The porous fluidizer includes a fluidizer body extending into the eccentric hopper. The fluidizer body includes an arc-shaped porous plate and a circular mounting plate. The arc-shaped porous plate and the circular mounting plate surround and form an air guide cavity. The arc-shaped porous plate has a plurality of air outlets that communicate with the air guide cavity. The air outlets also communicate with the inner cavity of the eccentric hopper.
[0006] Furthermore, the porous fluidizer also includes a connecting pipe that communicates with the air guide chamber. A gasket and a sealing ring are fitted onto the connecting pipe. A fixing nut is threaded onto the connecting pipe. The fixing nut is located outside the sealing ring and contacts the fixing nut. The air inlet pipe is connected to the connecting pipe.
[0007] Furthermore, the adapter is connected to the eccentric hopper and the discharge valve via a chuck, respectively.
[0008] Furthermore, the straight cylindrical storage silo has a height of 0.5m-1.5m, a diameter of 0.3m-0.4m, and a wall thickness of 0.003m. The lower end of the straight cylindrical storage silo is connected to the eccentric silo via a chuck.
[0009] Furthermore, the eccentric hopper has a height of 0.7m-0.9m, an upper diameter of 0.3m-0.4m, a lower diameter of 0.1m-0.2m, and a wall thickness of 0.003m.
[0010] Furthermore, the diameter of the circular mounting plate is 0.03m-0.2m, and the diameter of the vent hole is 3μm-10μm.
[0011] Furthermore, the air intake pipe is a #4 air pipe.
[0012] Furthermore, the adapter has a height of 0.05m-0.1m and a diameter of 0.1m-0.2m.
[0013] Furthermore, the diameter of the feeding valve is 0.1m-0.2m.
[0014] The advantages of this invention are: it improves upon the original feeding device by removing the stirring mechanism and adding several porous fluidizers. By filling the porous fluidizers with air, the airflow enters the eccentric hopper, impacting and disturbing the powder in the eccentric hopper, which can effectively improve the flowability of the material, thereby solving the problem of material agglomeration and blockage, and accelerating the feeding speed.
