It should be understood that this disclosure can have various variations in different embodiments without departing from the scope of this disclosure, and the descriptions and drawings therein are illustrative in nature and not intended to limit this disclosure.

[0050] In the following description of various exemplary embodiments of this disclosure, reference is made to the accompanying drawings, which form part of this disclosure, and which illustrate by way of example different exemplary structures, systems, and steps that can implement various aspects of this disclosure. It should be understood that other specific embodiments of the components, structures, exemplary devices, systems, and steps may be used, and structural and functional modifications may be made without departing from the scope of this disclosure. Furthermore, while the terms “above,” “between,” “within,” etc., may be used in this specification to describe different exemplary features and elements of this disclosure, these terms are used herein only for convenience, such as the orientation according to the examples described in the accompanying drawings. Nothing in this specification should be construed as requiring a specific three-dimensional orientation of the structure to fall within the scope of this disclosure.

[0051] See Figure 1 The illustration shows a side view of the conveying device proposed in this disclosure. In this exemplary embodiment, the conveying device proposed in this disclosure is described using a light material (e.g., a light component solid additive raw material) applied in the production of lubricating grease as an example. It will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications, additions, substitutions, deletions, or other changes may be made to the specific embodiments described below in order to apply the relevant designs of this disclosure to the production of other types of chemical products, and these changes are still within the scope of the principles of the conveying device proposed in this disclosure.

[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the material conveying device includes a support 100, a material conveying cylinder 200, a material conveying pipe 300, and a drive mechanism 400. (See also...) Figures 2 to 4 , Figure 2 The front view of the conveying device is shown in the image. Figure 3 The diagram shows a representative exploded view of part of the structure of the material conveying device, specifically showing the exploded structure of the material conveying cylinder 200 and the drive mechanism 400; Figure 4 China representatively shows Figure 3The enlarged cross-sectional view of part A in the figure shows the axial sectional structure of a portion of the front end of the conveying pipe 300 and the conveying cylinder 200. The structure, connection method, and functional relationship of the main components of the conveying device proposed in this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the above figures.

[0053] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the conveying cylinder 200 is rotatably mounted on the support 100. The conveying cylinder 200 has a cylindrical structure and is closed at both ends. The central axis L0 of the conveying cylinder 200 has an inclination angle α greater than 0 and less than 90° with the horizontal plane S0. A discharge port 210 is provided at the center of the lower end of the conveying cylinder 200. A closable inlet 220 is provided on the side wall of the conveying cylinder 200. For example, an openable and closable door 221 can be provided at the inlet 220 to realize the closure and opening of the inlet 220. The conveying pipe 300 is connected to the discharge port 210 of the conveying cylinder 200, and the conveying pipe 300 is coaxially arranged with the conveying cylinder 200, and the conveying pipe 300 can provide a drainage function. The drive mechanism 400 is drivenly connected to the conveying cylinder 200, and the drive mechanism 400 is used to drive the conveying cylinder 200 to rotate around its own central axis L0. It should be noted that the upper and lower ends of the conveying cylinder 200 mentioned in this specification refer to the two ends of the conveying cylinder 200 along the axial direction (i.e., the closed two ends of the cylinder), which are relatively raised and relatively lowered due to their inclined arrangement. Specifically, when using the conveying device, material can be placed into the conveying cylinder 200, and then the conveying cylinder 200 can be driven to rotate, so that the material in the conveying cylinder 200 is output through the conveying pipe 300. In other words, in Figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, the conveying cylinder 200 is used to contain materials. Through the above structural design, this disclosure further avoids dust generation. With the above structural design, this disclosure utilizes the inclined arrangement and rotation of the conveying cylinder 200 to output the material inside the conveying cylinder 200 to the manhole of the mixing vessel via the conveying pipe 300, eliminating the need for manual material feeding into the manhole, saving manpower, simplifying operation, improving conveying efficiency, and minimizing dust generation during the conveying and feeding process.

[0054] Furthermore, the material conveying device proposed in this disclosure has the following advantages: It is simple to operate, highly practical, reduces splashing or airborne dispersion caused by manual addition of light components, protects the environment and personnel, and saves costs. The structure is simple, easy to operate and assemble; the main body and accessories are detachable, facilitating accessory replacement and saving costs. This disclosure is applicable to the addition of light component additive raw materials for lubricating greases, but is not limited to lubricating grease production, and has a wide range of applications. This disclosure effectively avoids dust generation from solid light component raw materials, preventing environmental pollution and the respiratory impact of light components on operators. It can be widely used in lubricating grease production for dissolving materials and preventing airborne dispersion.

[0055] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the inclination angle α between the central axis L0 of the conveying cylinder 200 and the horizontal plane S0 can be 5° to 45°, for example, 5°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°, etc. Through the above structural design, this disclosure selects a suitable inclination angle α for the inclined arrangement of the conveying cylinder 200, avoiding the inclination angle α being too small, which would make the material conveying not smooth enough, and at the same time avoiding the inclination angle α being too large, which would be detrimental to the arrangement of the device structure and the cooperation with the manhole of the mixing vessel.

[0056] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the feed cylinder 200 may have a cylindrical structure.

[0057] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the material of the feed cylinder 200 may be metal.

[0058] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the support 100 may include a platform 110 and a plurality of support legs 120. A feed cylinder 200 is rotatably mounted on the platform 110. The plurality of support legs 120 are respectively connected to the bottom of the platform 110, and the support legs 120 are used to support the platform 110. Through the above structural design, this disclosure enables the support 100 to provide stable support function, and its structure is simple and easy to assemble.

[0059] like Figure 2 As shown, based on the structural design of the support 100, which includes a platform 110 and legs 120, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the platform 110 may include a support plate 111 and two side guard plates 112. The two side guard plates 112 are respectively connected to both sides of the support plate 111 and extend upwards. Accordingly, the support plate 111 and the two side guard plates 112 together form a receiving groove 113, in which the material conveying cylinder 200 is at least partially received. Through the above structural design, this disclosure can further optimize the stability and reliability of the support 100 in supporting the material conveying cylinder 200.

[0060] like Figure 1 As shown, based on the structural design of the support 100, which includes a platform 110 and a support leg 120, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the lower end of the support leg 120 may be provided with a traveling wheel 121. Through the above structural design, this disclosure enables the material conveying device to have a movable function, making it easy to move the material conveying device to different working scenarios, expanding the application range, and improving convenience.

[0061] Based on the structural design of the outrigger 120 with the traveling wheel 121, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the traveling wheel 121 may be equipped with a brake. Through the above structural design, this disclosure can lock the traveling wheel 121, preventing the material conveying device from shaking during material conveying operations and further improving stability.

[0062] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the support 100 may be made of metal.

[0063] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the inner wall of the conveying pipe 300 may be provided with a helical tooth structure 310. Accordingly, when the conveying pipe 300 rotates with the conveying cylinder 200, the material in the conveying cylinder 200, after entering the conveying pipe 300, can be conveyed forward (i.e., away from the conveying cylinder 200) by the rotating helical tooth structure 310. Through the above structural design, this disclosure can optimize the material conveying effect of the conveying pipe 300, improve efficiency, and avoid dust generation.

[0064] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the material of the conveying pipe 300 can be the same as that of the conveying cylinder 200, for example, it can be metal.

[0065] See Figure 5 , Figure 5 The diagram shows a partially enlarged cross-sectional view of a feeding device embodying the principles of this disclosure in another exemplary embodiment. The specific enlarged area can be found in reference to... Figure 3 Region A in the text.

[0066] like Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the end 320 of the conveying pipe 300 connected to the conveying cylinder 200 extends into the conveying cylinder 200 to insert a packaging bag 500 containing materials. Specifically, when using the conveying device, the packaging bag 500 containing materials can be placed into the conveying cylinder 200 through the inlet 220, and then the end 320 of the conveying pipe 300 extending into the conveying cylinder 200 is used to insert the packaging bag 500, so that the material in the packaging bag 500 can directly enter the conveying pipe 300. In other words, in Figure 5 In the illustrated embodiment, the feed cylinder 200 is used to accommodate the packaging bag 500. Through the above structural design, this disclosure further avoids dust generation.

[0067] See Figure 6 , Figure 5 The image shows a partially enlarged view of a feeding device that embodies the principles of this disclosure in yet another exemplary embodiment; the specific enlarged area can be found in reference to... Figure 3 Region A in the text.

[0068] like Figure 6As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the conveying pipe 300 may include at least two pipe sections 330, such as, but not limited to, the two pipe sections 330 shown in the figures, which are telescopically connected. Through the above structural design, this disclosure enables the conveying pipe 300 to have a telescopic function. Accordingly, this disclosure allows the length of the conveying pipe 300 to be adjusted according to the opening of the mixing vessel and the depth of the feeding amount. Furthermore, it allows the conveying pipe 300 to be adapted to meet different requirements for docking with manholes, further expanding the application range of the conveying device.

[0069] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, a first transmission wheel 230 may be disposed at the center of the upper end of the feed cylinder 200. The drive mechanism 400 may include a transmission motor and a transmission belt 420. The output shaft of the rotating motor 410 is connected to a second transmission wheel 411. The transmission belt 420 is wound between the first transmission wheel 230 and the second transmission wheel 411, wherein the width of the transmission belt 420 may match the width of the first transmission wheel 230 and the width of the second transmission wheel 411, and the transmission belt 420 is used to transmit the torque output by the rotating motor 410 to the feed cylinder 200.

[0070] Based on the structural design of the drive mechanism 400 including a transmission motor, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the voltage of the transmission motor can be 220V or 360V, and its speed can be 800 rad / min to 2000 rad / min, such as 800 rad / min, 1000 rad / min, 1200 rad / min, 1500 rad / min, 2000 rad / min, etc.

[0071] Based on the structural design of the drive mechanism 400 including the transmission belt 420, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the material of the transmission belt 420 can be rubber.

[0072] It should be noted that the conveying devices shown in the accompanying drawings and described in this specification are merely a few examples among many conveying devices capable of employing the principles of this disclosure. It should be clearly understood that the principles of this disclosure are by no means limited to any detail or component of the conveying devices shown in the accompanying drawings or described in this specification.

[0073] In summary, the material conveying device proposed in this disclosure includes a support 100, a material conveying cylinder 200, a material conveying pipe 300, and a drive mechanism 400. The material conveying cylinder 200 is rotatably mounted on the support 100, and its central axis L0 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane S0. A discharge port 210 is provided at the center of the lower end of the material conveying cylinder 200. The material conveying pipe 300 is connected to the discharge port 210 of the material conveying cylinder 200 and is arranged coaxially with the material conveying cylinder 200. The drive mechanism 400 drives the material conveying cylinder 200 to rotate around its own central axis L0. Through the above structural design, this disclosure can utilize the inclined arrangement and rotation of the material conveying cylinder 200 to output the material in the material conveying cylinder 200 to the manhole of the mixing vessel through the material conveying pipe 300, eliminating the need for manual feeding of materials into the manhole, saving manpower, facilitating operation, improving material conveying efficiency, and reducing dust generation during the feeding process.
