[0055] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment, the drive unit includes: a first motor 10, which is disposed on the mounting plate 5 and fixedly connected to the mounting plate 5; a connector 11, which is disposed on the output end of the first motor and fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor; and a stirring blade 12, which is disposed on the connector 11 and fixedly connected to the connector 11.

[0056] In this configuration, the connecting rod 8 is used to fix the mixing tank 7 again; the discharge port 9 is used for the refractory castable in the mixing tank 7 to enter the discharge channel 13; the first motor 10 is used to provide power to drive the connecting piece 11 and the stirring blade 12 to rotate; the connecting piece 11 is used to connect the first motor 10 and the stirring blade 12; the stirring blade 12 is used to continuously stir the refractory castable in the mixing tank 7 to prevent the mixed materials from separating.

[0057] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5In a preferred embodiment, the feeding mechanism includes: a feeding section disposed on the mixing tank 7 for receiving the feeding port 9; and a casting section disposed on the outer shell 4 for casting refractory materials.

[0058] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In a preferred embodiment, the feeding unit includes: a feeding channel 13, disposed between the mixing tank 7 and the outer shell 4, and fixedly connected to the mixing tank 7; two cams 14, disposed on the feeding channel 13 and rotatably connected to the feeding channel 13; a fixing plate 17, disposed on the outer shell 4 and fixedly connected to the outer shell 4; two gears 15, disposed on the cams 14 and fixedly connected to the cams 14; and a second motor 16, disposed on the fixing plate 17 and fixedly connected to the fixing plate 17.

[0059] refer to Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment, the casting section includes: a casting cavity 18 disposed on the outer shell 4 and fixedly connected to the outer shell 4; and a telescopic casting head 19 disposed inside the casting cavity 18 and fixedly connected to the casting cavity 18.

[0060] In this configuration, the feeding channel 13 is used for the refractory castable to enter the casting cavity 18; the cam 14 is used to close and open the feeding channel 13, and the size of the opening channel is controlled by the rotation angle of the cam 14, which affects the flow rate of the refractory castable and thus controls the casting speed; the output end of the second motor 16 is connected to one of the gears 15, which rotates the gear 15, and the two gears 15 mesh and rotate in opposite directions, which can drive the cam 14 to rotate.

This is primarily achieved by controlling the flow rate of the refractory castable, thereby influencing the pouring speed and ultimately ensuring sample quality.

[0062] Working principle: When using this device, the refractory castable is added into the mixing tank 7 through the feed cylinder 6. Inside the mixing tank 7, the first motor 10 drives the stirring blade 12 to rotate. The rotation of the stirring blade 12 fully mixes the refractory castable in the mixing tank 7. After the mixing is completed, the speed of the first motor 10 decreases, and the mold 3 is transported to the bottom of the pouring head by the conveyor belt 1. At this time, the second motor 16 is started. The second motor 16 rotates clockwise and drives the gear 15 connected to the second motor 16 to rotate clockwise. This gear 15 drives another gear 15 to rotate counterclockwise. At the same time, the two gears 15 drive the cam 14 to rotate. The two cams 14 rotate in opposite directions to open the channel for the refractory castable to flow downward, allowing the refractory castable to enter the casting cavity 18 through the feeding channel 13, and then enter the telescopic casting head from the casting cavity 18. The telescopic casting head 19 will change according to the height of the mold 3 to allow the refractory castable to enter the mold 3. During casting, the rotation angle of the gear 15 controlled by the second motor 16 can be used to control the gap of the two cams 14 opening the channel, thereby controlling the flow rate of the refractory castable and thus changing the casting speed.
