Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mud brick processing technology, specifically relating to a mud mixing device. Background Technology
[0002] In traditional mud brick making, the mud mixing process uses a rather rudimentary method, mostly involving simply pouring water directly into the hopper to adjust the mud's consistency. This approach has many obvious drawbacks.
[0003] From a humidity control perspective, simply pouring water manually makes it difficult to accurately control the moisture content of the clay. Clay brick production has strict requirements for clay moisture content. Too much water makes the clay too soft, making it difficult to maintain its shape during molding, leading to cracking, deformation, and other problems that severely affect the strength and appearance of the finished product. Too little water results in poor clay plasticity, making it difficult to compact and mold, also preventing the production of qualified clay bricks. Regarding temperature, mixing different clay formulas at specific temperatures allows for more thorough and uniform mixing of the components, improving the structural stability and durability of the clay bricks. However, the traditional method of directly pouring water cannot effectively regulate the clay temperature. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mud mixing device, including a working platform and a ball mill. The ball mill includes a hopper, which comprises a first hopper body and a second hopper body. The first hopper body is connected to the second hopper body via a supplementary component. The supplementary component includes a nozzle, an assembly ring, a branch pipe, and a solenoid valve. The first hopper body is connected to the second hopper body via the assembly ring. The outer circumferential wall of the assembly ring is evenly distributed with assembly grooves adapted to the nozzle. The nozzle is detachably connected to the assembly groove. A bracket is provided on the outer wall of the hopper. The branch pipe and the solenoid valve are both installed on the bracket. The branch pipe includes a main pipe and a branch pipe. The branch pipe is connected to the nozzle via a pipe. The main pipe is connected to the solenoid valve via a pipe. The other end of the solenoid valve is connected to a medium pipe. A controller is provided on the working platform. The controller is connected to the solenoid valve via a wire.
[0005] Furthermore, the supplementary components are provided in two sets, and the two sets of supplementary components are symmetrically arranged about the hopper. The multiple nozzles form a nozzle layer, and the nozzle layer is provided in two layers.
[0006] Furthermore, the ends of the first bucket and the second bucket are engaged with the two ends of the assembly ring, and the outer wall of the assembly ring is provided with a clamp.
[0007] Furthermore, the medium inside the medium pipe is steam.
[0008] Furthermore, the working platform has a working chamber, the ball mill is located in the working chamber, and the support is located above the working platform, with the two in contact.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: it allows for flexible selection of cutting or directly replacing the existing hopper to connect the supplementary components; the controller can precisely control the opening and closing of the solenoid valve to adjust the medium flow as needed, facilitating flexible adjustment of the medium quantity and timing according to the actual needs of mud mixing, improving the uniformity and quality of mud mixing; and the controller is located on the top of the work platform and can be operated by stepping on it, making it convenient for workers to use; the two sets of symmetrical supplementary components and the nozzles forming two layers of nozzles can supplement the mud medium from multiple directions and different heights, making the medium distribution more uniform, acting on the mud in an all-round and multi-layered manner, and enhancing the mud state adjustment effect. This design reduces local variations and improves overall mixing efficiency and quality. The first and second hoppers are connected by a snap-fit mechanism with a clamp on the outer wall of the assembly ring, ensuring a more secure connection and preventing loosening or displacement due to vibration. This guarantees the overall structural stability of the hoppers and ensures continuous and stable operation of the device. Steam is used as the medium in the medium pipe, which heats the mud to facilitate mixing and improve the mixing quality, while also adjusting the moisture content to increase the plasticity of the mud for subsequent processes. The working platform has a working chamber for placing the ball mill, which reduces internal and external interference. The support is located above the working platform and provides stable support for the supplementary components. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0017] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides the following technical solution: a mud mixing device, including a working platform 1 and a ball mill, wherein the ball mill includes a hopper, the hopper including a first hopper body 2 and a second hopper body 3, the first hopper body 2 being connected to the second hopper body 3 via a supplementary assembly, the supplementary assembly including a nozzle 4, an assembly ring 5, a branch pipe 6, and a solenoid valve 7, the first hopper body 2 being connected to the second hopper body 3 via the assembly ring 5, and the outer circumferential wall of the assembly ring 5 having evenly distributed assembly grooves 8 adapted to the nozzle 4. The nozzle 4 is detachably connected to the assembly slot 8. A bracket 9 is provided on the outer wall of the hopper. The branch pipe 6 and the solenoid valve 7 are both installed on the bracket 9. The branch pipe 6 includes a main pipe 10 and a branch pipe 11. The branch pipe 11 is connected to the nozzle 4 through a pipe. The main pipe 10 is connected to the solenoid valve 7 through a pipe. The other end of the solenoid valve 7 is connected to a medium pipe. A controller 12 is provided on the working platform 1. The controller 12 is connected to the solenoid valve 7 through a wire.
[0018] In the above structure, the first hopper body 2 and the second hopper body 3 can be obtained by cutting the original hopper, and then the supplementary components can be connected. Alternatively, the original hopper can be directly replaced and the finished hopper can be connected to the ball mill. The controller 12 is connected to the solenoid valve 7 through a wire, which can accurately control the opening and closing of the solenoid valve 7, and thus adjust the medium flow as needed. This is beneficial for flexibly adjusting the amount and timing of the supplementary medium according to the actual needs of mud mixing, ensuring better mud mixing effect and a more suitable state for subsequent processing, thereby improving the uniformity and quality of mud mixing. The controller 12 is set on the top of the working platform 1, and the operator does not need to hold or bend over to operate it. It can be controlled directly by stepping on the controller 12. Stepping on the controller 12 opens the solenoid valve 7.
[0019] In this embodiment, two sets of supplementary components are provided, and the two sets of supplementary components are symmetrically arranged about the hopper. Multiple nozzles 4 form a nozzle layer, and the nozzle layer is provided in two layers.
[0020] By adopting the above structure, the medium can be replenished in the hopper from multiple directions and different heights, making the medium more evenly distributed in the hopper. It can act on the mud in all directions and at multiple levels, further enhancing the effect of regulating the state of the mud, and more fully realizing purposes such as heating and humidification. It ensures that the mud mixing can achieve an ideal degree of uniformity in the entire space, improves the overall efficiency and quality of mud mixing, and reduces the problem of local differences in mud caused by uneven medium replenishment.
[0021] In this embodiment, the ends of the first bucket body 2 and the second bucket body 3 are engaged with the two ends of the assembly ring 5, and the outer wall of the assembly ring 5 is provided with a clamp 13.
[0022] By adopting the above structure, this connection structure can more firmly connect the first bucket 2 and the second bucket 3 together, preventing loosening or displacement between the buckets due to equipment vibration or other reasons during the mud mixing process, thus ensuring the stability of the overall structure of the buckets and ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the mud mixing device.
[0023] In this embodiment, the medium inside the medium pipe is steam.
[0024] By adopting the above structure and using steam as a supplementary medium, the clay can be heated to maintain a suitable temperature, which is conducive to better mixing and fusion of the various components in the clay. This is especially beneficial for clays that are better stirred at specific temperatures, significantly improving the mixing quality. On the other hand, steam can also appropriately increase the humidity of the clay, adjust its water content, and give it better plasticity and other properties, making it easier for subsequent molding and other processing steps.
[0025] In this embodiment, the working platform 1 has a working chamber 14, the ball mill is located in the working chamber 14, and the support 9 is located above the working platform 1, and the two are in contact.
[0026] In the above structure, the ball mill is placed inside the working chamber 14, which provides a certain degree of protection, reducing interference from external factors and the impact of the ball mill's operation on the external environment. The support 9 is located above and in contact with the working platform 1, providing stable structural support for the supplementary components.
[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
