[0003] The discharge structure of a concrete mixer consists of a discharge port, a discharge valve, and a control and safety system. The control and safety system controls the opening and closing of the discharge valve, allowing the mixed concrete to be discharged through the discharge port. During discharge, the feed hopper of the concrete mixer truck moves below the discharge port to receive the material. During the receiving process, excessive flow velocity can easily cause concrete to overflow or splash into the feed hopper of the mixing tank. At the same time, after discharge, concrete can easily adhere to the discharge port, affecting subsequent discharge operations.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. The discharge structure of this concrete mixer uses a pusher assembly to move the rotating ring and the moving outer cylinder. The moving outer cylinder moves downwards and seals the discharge cylinder, simultaneously causing the cover plate to move downwards and seal the surface of the mixing tank's feed hopper. This prevents concrete from overflowing the feed hopper when the control valve is opened, and also avoids the concrete splashing that occurs during unloading due to the distance between the discharge port and the mixing tank's feed hopper. After discharge, the control valve is closed, and the pusher assembly moves the moving outer cylinder upwards. Concrete on the inner wall of the moving outer cylinder is scraped off through the discharge cylinder. The drive assembly meshes with the gear ring, causing the moving outer cylinder to rotate circumferentially within the rotating ring, simultaneously rotating the scraper. The scraper then scrapes away concrete from the inner wall of the discharge cylinder, preventing concrete from adhering to the discharge port and sliding to the ground, thus avoiding concrete hardening or requiring water cleaning to contaminate the ground.

[0026] 2. The discharge structure of this concrete mixer ensures the sealing of the cover plate on the surface of the mixing tank feed hopper by means of a sealing rubber gasket. At the same time, the installation and fixing of the sealing rubber gasket and the cover plate, as well as the disassembly and replacement of the sealing rubber gasket, are achieved by the threaded locking engagement of the locking screw and the locking nut.
