Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of three-way technology, specifically to a three-way material distribution valve for preventing material jamming. Background Technology

[0002] A tee is a widely used pipe fitting in piping systems. It mainly consists of a main pipe and two branch pipes, shaped like a "T" or "Y". Its function is to allow fluid to flow in a pipeline, enabling the medium to flow smoothly from the main pipe to the two branch pipes, or to collect the fluid from the two branch pipes back into the main pipe. Tees are generally made of different materials, such as stainless steel and carbon steel, to adapt to different working environments and media requirements. In the installation of piping systems in building water supply and drainage, HVAC, and chemical industries, tees are crucial components for ensuring the normal operation of the piping system and achieving rational fluid distribution.

[0003] Currently, common feed tees exhibit several significant drawbacks in practical applications. The internal partition plate requires manual operation to switch feed holes. This process is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but the partition plate also endures considerable force under frequent operation and material impact. Over time, the partition plate is prone to deformation, leading to misalignment and severely affecting the accuracy and stability of feed. Furthermore, large particles or irregular materials can easily become stuck in the fitting, reducing feed speed and potentially shortening the tee's lifespan, increasing maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned problems, this utility model proposes an anti-jamming three-way material distribution valve that divides the partition plate into two parts, reduces the extension distance, lowers the stress, and sets an auxiliary material pushing mechanism.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution proposed by this utility model is: a three-way material distribution valve for preventing material jamming, comprising:

[0006] The three-way body includes a main pipe and a branch pipe, and the main pipe and branch pipe are provided with interconnected material discharge channels;

[0007] The material blocking structure includes a rotating baffle and a push-pull baffle. The rotating baffle is hinged at the junction of two branch pipes on the side away from the main pipe and is driven to rotate by a reduction motor fixed on the side wall of the branch pipe. There are two push-pull baffles, which are slidably disposed in the two branch pipes and match the rotating baffle. The push-pull baffles are driven by a cylinder fixed on the branch pipe.

[0008] The auxiliary feeding mechanism includes a main feeding mechanism and a secondary feeding mechanism. The main feeding mechanism is located in the main pipe and includes a second geared motor and several push plates driven to rotate. There are two secondary feeding mechanisms, each located in a branch pipe and includes a third geared motor and several push rods driven by it.

[0009] Furthermore, the push-pull baffle is arranged perpendicular to the side wall of the branch pipe.

[0010] Furthermore, both the end of the rotating baffle away from the hinge and the end of the push-pull baffle away from the cylinder have a pointed protrusion in the middle, forming two symmetrical inclined surfaces.

[0011] Furthermore, the main pushing mechanism and the auxiliary pushing mechanism are respectively located near the lower ends of the main pipe and the branch pipe, and guide blocks are symmetrically provided on the inner side wall of the main pipe below the main pushing mechanism.

[0012] Furthermore, the second reduction motor is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the main pipe, and its output end is fixedly mounted on a rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected inside the main pipe, and the push plate is fixedly mounted on one side wall of the rotating shaft and is equidistantly arranged around the rotating shaft.

[0013] Furthermore, the reduction motor three is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the branch pipe, and its output end is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft two. The rotating shaft two is rotatably connected inside the branch pipe. The push rod is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the rotating shaft two and is arranged in several groups along the axial direction of the rotating shaft two. The push rods in the same group are arranged equidistantly around the rotating shaft two.

[0014] Furthermore, a rubber sleeve is fitted onto one end of the push rod away from the rotating shaft.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: This anti-jamming three-way material distribution valve divides the separator plate into two parts: a rotating baffle and a push-pull baffle. Compared with the traditional one-piece separator plate, the two-part design reduces the extension distance of a single separator plate, reduces the stress borne during frequent operation, effectively extends the service life, and reduces the risk of damage caused by stress concentration. Furthermore, the rotating baffle and the push-pull baffle are driven and controlled by a geared motor and a cylinder respectively, avoiding manual control and making operation quick and effortless.

[0016] The pusher plate in the main feeding mechanism, driven by a second geared motor, can evenly and stably push the material in the main pipe, ensuring smooth material conveying and preventing blockages caused by material accumulation. The multiple push rods in the auxiliary feeding mechanism, driven by a third geared motor, can evenly push the material in the branch pipe, preventing blockages. The rubber sleeve not only increases friction with the material, facilitating pushing, but also prevents damage to the material and the sidewalls of the branch pipe. The guide wedge design further guides the material downwards, preventing material from stagnating or jamming at the bottom. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 4 Appendix Figure 5 A three-way material distribution valve for preventing material jamming includes: a three-way body, including a main pipe 1 and branch pipes 2, wherein the main pipe 1 and branch pipes 2 are provided with interconnected material discharge channels; a material blocking structure, including a rotating baffle 3 and a push-pull baffle 4, wherein the rotating baffle 3 is hinged at the junction of the two branch pipes 2 on the side away from the main pipe 1 and is driven to rotate by a reduction motor 5 fixed on the side wall of the branch pipe 2; two push-pull baffles 4 are provided, which are slidably disposed in the two branch pipes 2 respectively and match the rotating baffle 3; the push-pull baffles 4 are driven by a cylinder 6 fixed on the branch pipe 2; the push-pull baffles 4 are set perpendicular to the side wall of the branch pipe 2, so that the pushing and pulling action is smoother, and can work with the rotating baffle 3 to effectively block materials, accurately control the material discharge direction, and improve the material distribution accuracy of the distribution valve. The rotating baffle 3 at the end away from the hinge and the push-pull baffle 4 at the end away from the cylinder 6 both have a centrally protruding pointed shape, forming two symmetrical inclined surfaces, which can ensure a tight fit between the rotating baffle 3 and the push-pull baffle 4, thus guaranteeing a good material blocking effect.

[0025] Combined with appendix Figure 2 Appendix Figure 3 Appendix Figure 5The auxiliary feeding mechanism includes a main feeding mechanism and a secondary feeding mechanism. The main feeding mechanism is located inside the main pipe 1 and includes a second geared motor 7 and several push plates 8 that drive it to rotate. The second geared motor 7 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the main pipe 1, and its output end is fixedly provided with a rotating shaft 12. The rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected inside the main pipe 1. The push plates 8 are fixedly installed on the side wall of the rotating shaft 12 and are equidistantly arranged around the rotating shaft 12, which can push the material in the main pipe 1 evenly and stably, ensuring smooth material conveying.

[0026] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 5 The auxiliary pushing mechanism comprises two units, each located within one of the two branch pipes 2. Each unit includes a geared motor 3 (9) and several push rods 10 driven by it. The geared motor 3 (9) is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the branch pipe 2, and its output end is fixedly mounted on a rotating shaft 2 (13). The rotating shaft 2 (13) is rotatably connected within the branch pipe 2. Several groups of push rods 10 are fixedly mounted on the side wall of the rotating shaft 2 (13) and arranged axially along the shaft. Push rods 10 in the same group are equidistantly arranged around the rotating shaft 2 (13), providing more even material pushing within the branch pipe 2 and effectively preventing material blockage. A rubber sleeve 14 is fitted onto the end of each push rod 10 away from the rotating shaft 2 (13), increasing friction with the material and improving material pushing while preventing excessive material compression by the push rod 10, which could damage the material and the side wall of the branch pipe 2.

[0027] Combined with appendix Figure 5 The main pushing mechanism and the auxiliary pushing mechanism are respectively located near the lower end of the main pipe 1 and the branch pipe 2. The inner side wall of the main pipe 1 is symmetrically provided with guide inclined blocks 11 below the main pushing mechanism, which can better guide the material to slide down and effectively avoid the material from being stuck or jammed at the bottom of the feeding channel.

[0028] The specific implementation of this utility model: When using the anti-jamming three-way material distribution valve, connect the three-way material distribution valve to an external power source, and the material enters the feeding channel from the main pipe 1.

[0029] To direct material to one of the branch pipes 2, first activate the cylinder 6 corresponding to the other branch pipe. Cylinder 6 pushes the push-pull baffle 4 to slide towards the rotating baffle 3. At the same time, control the geared motor 5 to drive the rotating baffle 3 to rotate, so that its end contacts the end of the push-pull baffle 4 to achieve a tight fit, blocking the material discharge channel of the other branch pipe.

[0030] During material conveying, the second geared motor 7 drives the first rotating shaft 12 to rotate. Push plates 8, fixed to the side wall of the first rotating shaft 12 and equidistantly arranged around it, evenly and stably push the material in the main pipe 1, ensuring smooth material conveying. Simultaneously, the auxiliary pushing mechanism in the corresponding branch pipe 2 also begins operation. The third geared motor 9 drives the second rotating shaft 13 to rotate, which in turn drives the push rod 10 to rotate, evenly pushing the material in the branch pipe 2 and preventing blockage. A rubber sleeve 14 fitted to the end of the push rod 10 away from the second rotating shaft 13 increases friction with the material, better pushing it and avoiding damage to the material and the side wall of the branch pipe. Guide inclined blocks 11, symmetrically arranged below the main pushing mechanism on the inner side wall of the main pipe 1, guide the material smoothly downwards, effectively preventing material stagnation and jamming at the bottom, thus achieving an efficient and precise material distribution process.

[0031] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the term "connection" should be interpreted broadly, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; for those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above term in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0032] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
