Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material separation technology, and more specifically, to an air classifier. Background Technology

[0002] An air classifier is an air classifying device that forms a classification system with a cyclone separator, dust collector, and induced draft fan. Material is drawn in by the fan from the lower inlet of the classifier and moves at high speed with the rising airflow to the classification zone. Under the strong centrifugal force generated by the high-speed rotating classification turbine, coarse and fine materials are separated. However, existing air classifiers suffer from problems such as damage to the classification wheel after prolonged use, difficulty in disassembly and assembly, and a lack of suitable quick-release mechanisms. Furthermore, the top cover needs to be opened during disassembly and assembly, and there is a lack of suitable quick-locking mechanisms for adjusting the opening and closing of the top cover. Additionally, the overall support height is fixed, making the support mechanism inconvenient to adjust, thus its practicality needs improvement. Utility Model Content
