Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of mixing equipment, specifically relating to a cement paste mixer. Background Technology
[0002] Cement paste is an important component of cement-based materials, and its performance directly affects the quality of cement-based materials such as concrete. In traditional cement paste mixers, the weighing device can lead to material residue issues. For example, cement powder, due to its low density, easily suspends in the air, and some unsettled material cannot be detected by the sensor. Wet or damp material can also adhere to the inner wall of the weighing hopper or pipes, forming residues. Furthermore, even after the discharge gate is closed, adhering material may not be completely discharged. All these situations contribute to material residue problems. In addition, vibrations during the feeding process can also introduce experimental errors.
[0003] Chinese patent CN114932632A discloses a mortar mixing production line. By installing a buffer valve with rotating blades between the feeding hopper and the powder weighing hopper, and by placing a weighing sensor on the weighing hook, the accuracy of weighing mortar materials can be improved, weighing errors reduced, and product quality improved. However, during the feeding process, material inevitably remains in the pipes or valves, still affecting the weighing accuracy. In addition, the vibration caused by the instantaneous impact force when the material falls vertically into the weighing hopper during feeding can cause experimental errors, further affecting the weighing accuracy. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a cement paste mixer to solve the technical problems of material residue and experimental errors caused by vibration in existing cement paste mixers, which in turn affect the accuracy of material weighing.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] This utility model provides a cement paste mixer, including a frame, a water storage silo and a cement storage silo at the top of the frame, a water metering scale connected below the water storage silo, the water metering scale being connected to the mixing tank through a first feeding pipe, a cement metering scale connected below the cement storage silo, the cement metering scale being connected to the mixing tank through a second feeding pipe, a shock absorber being installed on the second feeding pipe, and a double valve mechanism being installed inside the cement metering scale.
[0007] In the above technical solution, the frame is used to support and fix other components; the mixing tank is used to hold and mix cement paste, with a feed inlet at the top and a discharge outlet at the bottom. The mixing tank can be cylindrical to facilitate mixing and cleaning; the cement storage silo and water storage silo are used to store cement and water, and the cement metering scale and water metering scale are used to control the amount of cement and water added. Then, the cement and water are transported to the mixing tank through the first feeding pipe and the second feeding pipe.
[0008] More preferably, the shock absorber is a rubber damper or a spring suspension.
[0009] Preferably, the dual-valve mechanism includes a main valve connected to the discharge port of the cement weighing scale, and an auxiliary valve connected to one side of the discharge pipe of the main valve, wherein the auxiliary valve is provided with a built-in paddle.
[0010] Preferably, the built-in paddle is a flexible scraper.
[0011] More preferably, the built-in paddle is made of silicone.
[0012] The design principle of the dual-valve mechanism in the above technical solution is as follows:
[0013] Two valves (main valve + auxiliary valve) are added to the discharge port of the cement weighing scale. The main valve is used for rapid material discharge, and the auxiliary valve uses a flexible sealing plate to remove residue.
[0014] 1) Main valve: When opened, it allows for the rapid release of 90% of the material;
[0015] 2) Auxiliary valve: After the residual material is removed, the pressure on the flexible scraper (such as silicone material) gradually decreases and the bending angle gradually decreases, so the residual material adhering to the edge of the auxiliary valve is further scraped off.
[0016] The above improvements can reduce the residual amount to below 0.5%, which is especially suitable for the accurate metering of cement powder.
[0017] Dynamic damping structure: Shock absorbers (such as rubber dampers or spring suspensions) are embedded in the support frame of the cement weighing scale, and are combined with weight sensors and vibration isolation layers.
[0018] 1) External vibrations (such as mixer operation, equipment movement) are absorbed by the shock absorber to avoid affecting the sensor readings.
[0019] 2) A flexible connection is used between the weight sensor and the cement weighing scale body to further isolate high-frequency vibration.
[0020] The above improvements can reduce the weighing error from ±1% to ±0.3%, making it suitable for high-precision mixing scenarios.
[0021] Preferably, a vacuum pump is connected above the auxiliary valve.
[0022] Preferably, a pipe is provided on one side of the main valve.
[0023] Preferably, the shock absorber is provided on the second feeding pipe.
[0024] Preferably, a weight sensor is connected to the shock absorber.
[0025] Preferably, the shock absorber has several layers of shock-absorbing isolation layers arranged circumferentially on its outer periphery.
[0026] Preferably, a vacuum auxiliary system is connected below the cement weighing scale, a vacuum pump is connected to the top of the vacuum auxiliary system, the vacuum pump is connected to the mixing tank through a vacuum pipe, and a vacuum gauge is installed on the vacuum auxiliary system.
[0027] In the above technical solution, a vacuum pump is connected to the mixing tank via a vacuum pipeline to extract air from the mixing tank, thereby reducing the generation of air bubbles and improving the density of the cement paste. A vacuum gauge is used to monitor the vacuum level inside the mixing tank to ensure the effective operation of the vacuum-assisted system.
[0028] Preferably, the mixing tank is provided with a mixing shaft, the mixing shaft is connected to the first feeding pipe, and the mixing shaft is provided with spiral mixing blades.
[0029] In the above technical solution, the stirring shaft is driven by a motor, which rotates the stirring blades to stir the cement slurry in the mixing tank. The stirring blades are designed in a spiral shape to improve stirring efficiency and ensure the uniformity of the cement slurry.
[0030] Preferably, a controller is provided between the water metering scale and the first feeding pipe, and the controller is equipped with a display screen.
[0031] In the above technical solution, the controller is used to control the operation of the cement storage silo, water storage silo, cement metering scale, water metering scale, first feeding pipe, gravity feeding device, vacuum pump, vacuum gauge, mixing shaft, and mixing blades. The controller can be controlled by a PLC or a touch screen to achieve automated operation.
[0032] Preferably, the controller is a PR10 simple PLC with Chinese interface: 8 inputs and 8 outputs [Power supply: AC100~240V].
[0033] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0034] This utility model provides a cement paste mixer. By setting a double valve mechanism on the mixer frame, the cement residue adhering to the inner wall of the valve or pipe is effectively reduced, making the measurement of cement powder more accurate. At the same time, the shock absorber absorbs the vibration energy of the cement weighing scale or feeding pipe, avoiding fluctuations in weighing data due to equipment vibration, and improving the accuracy of cement / water ratio.
[0035] Furthermore, the built-in paddle, being made of a flexible material, possesses elastic properties. During the cement discharge process through the main valve, cement continuously accumulates at the bottom of the main valve's discharge pipe. Over time, this accumulated cement continuously compresses the built-in paddle, causing it to bend at a certain angle. This invention, through the cooperation of an auxiliary valve and a vacuum pump, provides sufficient power to the built-in paddle (i.e., introducing a certain amount of air force through the control of the auxiliary valve). The air force then pushes the accumulated cement towards the mixing tank, thereby reducing cement adhesion and residue on the valve or pipe's inner wall. In addition, the opening of the main valve allows for the rapid release of 90% of the material; the combined effect of the main and auxiliary valves significantly reduces residual material.
[0036] Furthermore, choosing a flexible scraper will make it more elastic, which is beneficial for pushing the piled cement.
[0037] Furthermore, a pipeline is opened on one side of the main valve to reserve a certain space for gas, so as to balance the gas pressure changes when the main valve is opened and closed, and prevent cylinder explosion due to sudden pressure changes.
[0038] Furthermore, shock absorbers are installed on the second feeding pipe to block the mechanical impact transmitted to the cement weighing scale due to pipe vibration during cement transportation.
[0039] Furthermore, by using a weight sensor to monitor the working status of the shock absorber in real time, the instantaneous weight deviation caused by vibration is automatically corrected, thereby improving the stability of the weighing data.
[0040] Furthermore, by setting up shock-absorbing isolation layers to gradually attenuate external vibration energy, high-frequency vibrations can be prevented from penetrating the shock absorber and affecting weighing accuracy.
[0041] Furthermore, a vacuum pump is connected to the mixing tank via a vacuum pipeline to extract air from the tank, reducing bubble formation and improving the density of the cement paste. A vacuum gauge is used to monitor the vacuum level inside the mixing tank, ensuring the effective operation of the vacuum-assisted system.
[0042] Furthermore, the integrated design of the mixing shaft and the feeding pipe allows water / cement to be sheared and mixed by the spiral blades as soon as it enters the mixing tank, shortening the overall mixing time and improving the uniformity of the slurry.
[0043] Furthermore, the controller is used to control the opening and closing or feeding values of various mechanisms of the mixer (such as cement storage silos, water storage silos, cement weighing scales, water weighing scales, first feeding pipes, gravity feeding devices, vacuum pumps, vacuum gauges, mixing shafts, and mixing blades); the display screen provides real-time data feedback, which is convenient for operators to monitor and adjust parameters.
