Concrete is a building material made by mixing cement, sand, gravel, water and appropriate admixtures in a certain proportion. It is a common and widely used structural material used for building buildings, roads, bridges and mine construction, etc.
[0003] Concrete mixing plants typically use auger blades for discharge. However, existing auger blades for discharge all have the same pitch, resulting in a large amount of air trapped inside the concrete during transport. This air reduces the volume of the concrete within the discharge pipe, causing intermittent discharge. Consequently, it becomes difficult to accurately determine the amount of concrete discharged, potentially leading to over-discharge and concrete waste. Utility Model Content

The discharge pipe is connected to the mixing tank, and a discharge port is provided at the end of the discharge pipe away from the mixing tank.

The reciprocating disc is coaxially fixed to the upper end of the rotating column. One end of the first connecting rod is rotatably connected to an eccentric position of the reciprocating disc. The piston cylinder is cylindrical and fixedly positioned at a preset position. The piston rod is slidably disposed within the piston cylinder. The other end of the first connecting rod is hinged to the piston rod. One end of the second connecting rod is connected to the piston rod.
[0012] A drive mechanism includes a drive disk; the drive disk is positioned at a preset position and has a drive groove; the other end of the second connecting rod is slidably inserted into the drive groove, so that when the drive disk rotates, the drive groove drives the second connecting rod to reciprocate along the axial direction of the piston cylinder.

[0029] Figure 1 This is a schematic structural diagram of a concrete mixing and metering device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, and with reference Figures 2 to 4 This utility model provides a concrete mixing and metering device, which includes a mixing tank 100, a discharge mechanism 200, and a control mechanism 300. The discharge mechanism 200 includes a discharge pipe 220 and a discharge auger blade 210. The discharge pipe 220 is connected to the mixing tank 100, and a discharge port 221 is provided at the end of the discharge pipe 220 away from the mixing tank 100. The discharge auger blade 210 is rotatably disposed within the discharge pipe 220, and the pitch of the discharge auger blade 210 gradually decreases from the mixing tank 100 to the discharge port 221. The control mechanism 300 is used to rotate the discharge auger blade 210 a corresponding number of revolutions or angle in a first rotation direction according to the required amount of concrete.
[0030] Specifically, the discharge auger blades 210 are configured such that, when rotating in the first direction, they continuously discharge concrete from the mixing tank 100 through the discharge port 221. Furthermore, the pitch of the discharge auger blades 210 gradually decreases from the mixing tank 100 to the discharge port 221, causing the concrete to be continuously compressed during its transport to the discharge port 221 under the action of the auger blade pitch. This compression by the auger blades causes air bubbles in the concrete to be expelled, ensuring a continuous discharge of concrete from the discharge port 221. In other words, the number of rotations or the angle of the discharge auger blades 210 are linearly positively correlated with the amount of material discharged from the discharge port 221. This allows for the accurate measurement of concrete quantity based on the number of rotations and the angle of the discharge auger blades 210, preventing excessive discharge and waste.
[0031] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the discharge mechanism 200 also includes a mixing auger blade 230, which is located at the bottom of the mixing tank 100 and is coaxially fixed to the discharge auger blade 210. The control mechanism 300 is also used to drive the discharge auger blade 210 to rotate in a second rotation direction when the concrete is mixed and stirred in the mixing tank 100. The first rotation direction and the second rotation direction are opposite to each other.
[0032] Specifically, the mixing auger blades 230 are configured to agitate the concrete at the bottom of the mixing drum 100 during rotation, thereby improving the mixing efficiency of the concrete. Furthermore, the mixing auger blades 230 and the discharge auger blades 210 are integrally formed and rotate in the same direction. Therefore, when the mixing auger blades 230 rotate in the first direction, they convey the concrete into the discharge pipe; when they rotate in the second direction, they agitate the concrete at the bottom of the mixing drum 100 and prevent concrete from entering the discharge pipe and clogging it.
[0033] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the control mechanism 300 includes a control module 310 and a control motor 320. The control motor 320 is connected to the discharge auger blades 210, and the control module 310 is electrically connected to the control motor 320. During concrete mixing in the mixing tank 100, the control motor 320 drives the discharge auger blades 210 to rotate in a second rotation direction. The control module 310 is also used to control the rotation angle or number of revolutions of the control motor 320 in the first rotation direction.
[0034] Specifically, the control module 310 can accurately obtain the required amount of concrete by converting the required amount of concrete into the angle or number of rotations of the discharge auger blades 210 in the first rotation direction. Furthermore, when the mixing tank 100 is in a non-discharge state, the control module 310 causes the control motor 320 to drive the discharge auger blades 210 to maintain rotation in the second rotation direction.
[0035] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the concrete mixing and metering device also includes a mixing mechanism 400, a transmission mechanism 500, and a drive mechanism 600. The mixing mechanism 400 includes a rotating column 420 and multiple mixing blades 410. The rotating column 420 is rotatably disposed inside the mixing tank 100 and is coaxially disposed with the mixing tank 100. The mixing blades 410 are fixedly connected to the rotating column 420.
[0036] The transmission mechanism 500 includes a reciprocating disc 510, a first connecting rod 520, a second connecting rod 530, a piston cylinder 540, and a piston rod 550. The reciprocating disc 510 is coaxially fixed to the upper end of the rotating column 420; one end of the first connecting rod 520 is rotatably connected to the reciprocating disc 510 at an eccentric position; the piston cylinder 540 is cylindrical and fixedly positioned at a preset position. The piston rod 550 is slidably disposed in the piston cylinder 540; the other end of the first connecting rod 520 is hinged to the piston rod 550; and one end of the second connecting rod 530 is connected to the piston rod 550. The drive mechanism 600 includes a drive disc 610, which is positioned at a preset position and has a drive groove 611. The other end of the second connecting rod 530 is slidably inserted into the drive groove 611, so that when the drive disc 610 rotates, the drive groove 611 drives the second connecting rod 530 to reciprocate along the axial direction of the piston cylinder 540.
[0037] Specifically, the mixing tank 100 is vertically arranged, with an opening at the top for introducing materials into the mixing tank 100. Furthermore, the rotating column 420 drives the stirring blades 410 to rotate, thereby stirring the materials within the mixing tank 100. Further, the preset position of the piston cylinder 540 is at the same level as the reciprocating disk 510, and one end of the first connecting rod 520 is hinged to the eccentric position of the reciprocating disk 510 to form a crank-connecting rod structure, used to drive the rotating column 420 to rotate when the piston column 550 slides within the piston cylinder 540. Further, the piston column 550 reciprocates within the piston cylinder 540; due to the short distance of the piston cylinder 540, the piston column 550 drives the reciprocating disk 510 to rotate alternately in both forward and reverse directions via the first connecting rod 520.
[0038] Specifically, the drive groove 611 on the drive disc 610 can drive the piston rod 550 to move within the piston cylinder 540 via the second connecting rod 530, thereby driving the stirring blades 410 to rotate alternately in both directions, which can improve the stirring efficiency of the material and make the material fully integrated, so as to improve the stirring quality of the material.
[0039] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the drive groove 611 includes multiple first grooves and multiple second grooves. The multiple first grooves and multiple second grooves are evenly distributed circumferentially along the axis of the drive disk 610. The first grooves and second grooves are arranged sequentially and are connected. Both the first grooves and second grooves are arc-shaped grooves, with the axis of the first groove located inside the drive disk 610 and the axis of the second groove located outside the drive disk 610.
[0040] Specifically, the axes of the first groove and the second groove are located on the inner and outer sides of the drive disk 610, respectively, resulting in different bending directions for the first and second grooves. The first groove bends towards the axis of the drive disk 610, while the second groove bends towards the outer side of the drive disk 610. Furthermore, a slider connected to the other end of the second connecting rod 530 is provided within the drive groove 611. When the slider slides around the axis of the drive disk 610 within the first and second grooves, the distance between the slider and the axis of the drive disk 610 alternates between increasing and decreasing, thereby driving the second connecting rod 530 to slide. In other words, when the slider is stationary relative to the drive disk 610, and the drive disk 610 rotates, it drives the piston rod 550 to move within the piston cylinder 540 via the drive groove 611, the slider, and the second connecting rod 530.
[0041] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the multiple stirring blades 410 are divided into multiple first blades and multiple second blades. The first blades and second blades have opposite spiral directions. Specifically, the opposite spiral directions of the first blades and second blades ensure that the first blades and second blades stir the material in different directions during the rotation of the rotating column 420, thereby further improving the stirring efficiency of the material.
[0042] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the concrete mixing and metering device also includes a support frame 700, on which the mixing tank 100, transmission mechanism 500, and drive mechanism 600 are all mounted. The drive mechanism 600 also includes a drive motor 620, which is connected to a drive disc 610. Specifically, the piston cylinder 540 and the drive disc 610 are positioned at preset locations via the support frame 700.
[0043] Therefore, those skilled in the art should recognize that although many exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described in detail herein, many other variations or modifications conforming to the principles of the present invention can be directly determined or derived from the disclosure of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
