Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic production technology, specifically to a discharge mechanism for a ceramic clay mixing machine. Background Technology
[0002] In ceramic production, traditional clay mixing mills typically employ a fixed-volume discharge structure, primarily consisting of a discharge cylinder, a pushing device, and a drive assembly for discharging the clay. The discharge cylinder pushes the clay out through the pushing device, completing the discharge. Some machines may use a rotating disc or sliding plate to sequentially feed the clay to the discharge port. Traditional discharge mechanisms are relatively simple in structure, with discharge methods often being quantitative and unadjustable or entirely dependent on manual adjustment. Discharge accuracy is limited by the fixed equipment volume, making it difficult to flexibly adapt to production demands.
[0003] However, traditional technical solutions have the following drawbacks:
[0004] Because the discharge volume is fixed, it is impossible to adjust the discharge volume and weight according to different production needs, resulting in a lack of flexibility in the discharge process and making it difficult to achieve precise quantitative discharge. This has a significant impact on the quality consistency of ceramic products, especially in production scenarios requiring high-precision control, where the limitations of traditional structures are particularly prominent.
[0005] Traditional discharge mechanisms are ill-suited to the discharge requirements of different clay sizes and lack volume adjustment capabilities. When it is necessary to change different molds or produce different types of ceramic products, it is often necessary to replace the entire set of equipment or carry out complex equipment modifications, which increases production costs, reduces production efficiency, and makes it difficult to meet the diversified and high-efficiency demands of modern ceramic production.
[0006] In view of this, this paper studies and improves the existing problems, and provides a discharge mechanism for a ceramic pumice machine to solve the current problems. The aim is to solve the problems and improve the practical value through this technology. Utility Model Content
[0007] The present invention aims to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.
[0008] In one possible implementation, a ceramic clay mixing mill discharge mechanism is provided, comprising: a forming cylinder, a volumetric disc assembly, a drive assembly, and a discharge drive rod. The discharge drive rod is fixed to the surface of the drive assembly, with its output end facing the surface of the volumetric disc assembly. The volumetric disc assembly includes an adjusting disc, a rotary disc, and a plurality of volumetric cups fixed to the surface of the rotary disc. The ports of the forming cylinder face each other and slide against the surface of the rotary disc. A sliding sleeve cup is slidably fitted inside the volumetric cup, with one end of the sliding sleeve cup slidingly abutting against the surface of the adjusting disc. The drive assembly includes a fixed base and a component fixed to the fixed base. The surface has a first drive motor and a second drive motor. The output end of the first drive motor is connected to a main shaft that is fixedly connected to the surface of the turntable. The output end of the second drive motor is fixedly connected to a rotating disk, and the surface of the rotating disk is provided with a crank pin. An adjusting sleeve is slidably installed on the surface of the fixed seat and sleeved around the outer periphery of the main shaft. One end of the adjusting sleeve is fixedly connected to the surface of the adjusting disk. The surface of the adjusting disk is provided with a discharge through hole that is arranged opposite to the discharge drive rod. The output end of the discharge drive rod enters the inner side of the corresponding volume cup through the discharge through hole and pushes out the mud inside the volume cup.
[0009] In one possible implementation, the forming cylinder is used to fit onto the discharge port of the ceramic clay mixer to guide the clay into the inner side of the volumetric cup. A shaft frame is fixedly installed on the surface of the forming cylinder, and a discharge hopper is fixedly installed on the surface of the shaft frame. One side of the discharge hopper slides against the surface of the rotary disc, and the discharge hopper is located on one side of the rotary disc at a horizontal position with the discharge through hole for receiving the discharge from the sliding cup.
[0010] In one possible implementation, the adjusting disc and adjusting sleeve are arranged coaxially with the rotary disc, and the number of volume cups and sliding sleeve cups is several and evenly distributed in a circumferential direction. The internal volume of the sliding sleeve cup and the volume cup is adjusted by the extension and retraction of the sliding sleeve cup inside the volume cup.
[0011] In one possible implementation, the first drive motor and the second drive motor are arranged in a relatively perpendicular direction, and the first drive motor is used to drive the rotary disk to rotate so that each sliding sleeve cup is connected to the port of the forming cylinder in sequence.
[0012] In one possible implementation, the output end of the discharge drive rod is provided with a push rod with the same diameter as the inner diameter of the sliding sleeve cup, and the inner diameter of the discharge through hole is greater than or equal to the inner diameter of the sliding sleeve cup.
[0013] In one possible implementation, the crank pin is located on the top surface of the rotating disk, and the crank pin is offset from the axis of the rotating disk.
[0014] Based on the above technical solution, the discharge mechanism of this utility model's ceramic clay refining machine uses a first drive motor to drive the rotary disc to rotate intermittently, causing several volumetric cups and sliding cups to rotate circumferentially. The sliding cups slide against the surface of the adjusting disc on one side, realizing the receiving, transporting, and discharging of the clay material. The volumetric disc assembly and the adjusting sliding sleeve remain stationary, receiving the discharge from the ceramic clay refining machine through different volumetric cups engaging with the forming cylinder port. After the volumetric cups and sliding cups are full, the first drive motor drives the adjusting disc to rotate, causing another set of volumetric cups and sliding cups to engage with the forming cylinder port. When these volumetric cups and sliding cups rotate to the discharge through-hole, the material inside the sliding cup is pushed out by the discharge drive rod, falling into the discharge hopper and sliding out, completing the discharge and achieving a quantitative discharge function. In addition, the second drive motor drives the rotating shaft and crank pin to rotate, causing the adjusting sleeve and adjusting plate to slide along the main shaft axis. The distance between the adjusting plate and the rotating wheel is adjusted to change the extension length of the volume cup and the sliding sleeve cup, thereby adjusting the internal volume of the volume cup and the sliding sleeve cup and realizing the control of the output.
[0015] The beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:
[0016] 1. In this utility model, by means of the uniform circumferential distribution of the volume cup and the sliding cup, and the adjustability of their internal volume, the volume and weight of each discharge can be precisely controlled, thereby realizing the quantitative discharge of the ceramic pumice machine and improving the consistency and accuracy of the discharge.
[0017] 2. In this utility model, the linkage adjustment of the crank pin and the adjusting sleeve can adapt to the discharge requirements of different specifications of mud. Users can flexibly adjust the volume of the volume cup according to actual usage needs to meet diverse production requirements. Attached Figure Description

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features of the present utility model can be combined with each other.
[0025] It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention.
[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-4 The present invention describes a ceramic clay refining machine discharge mechanism provided by some embodiments, including: a forming cylinder 100, a volumetric disc assembly 200, a drive assembly 300, and a discharge drive rod 400.
[0027] The discharge drive rod 400 is fixed to the surface of the drive assembly 300, with its output end facing the surface of the volume disk assembly 200. The volume disk assembly 200 includes a rotary disk 210, an adjusting disk 220, and several volume cups 230 fixed to the surface of the rotary disk 210. The port of the forming cylinder 100 faces and slides against the surface of the rotary disk 210. A sliding sleeve cup 231 is slidably sleeved on the inner side of the volume cup 230, and one end of the sliding sleeve cup 231 slides against the surface of the adjusting disk 220.
[0028] The drive assembly 300 includes a fixed base 310 and a first drive motor 320 and a second drive motor 330 fixed to the surface of the fixed base 310. The output end of the first drive motor 320 is connected to a main shaft 321 fixedly connected to the surface of the rotary disk 210, and the output end of the second drive motor 330 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft disk 331, the surface of which is provided with a crank pin 332. An adjusting sleeve 340 is slidably mounted on the surface of the fixed base 310, sleeved on the outer periphery of the main shaft 321, and one end of the adjusting sleeve 340 is fixedly connected to the surface of the adjusting disk 220.
[0029] The surface of the adjusting plate 220 is provided with a discharge through hole 221 arranged opposite to the discharge drive rod 400. The output end of the discharge drive rod 400 enters the inner side of the corresponding volume cup 230 through the discharge through hole 221, and pushes out the mud inside the volume cup 230.
[0030] In this embodiment, the forming cylinder 100 is fitted onto the discharge port of the ceramic clay mixer to guide the clay material into the inner side of the volumetric cup 230. A shaft bracket 110 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the forming cylinder 100, and a discharge hopper 120 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the shaft bracket 110. One side of the discharge hopper 120 slides against the surface of the rotary disc 210, and the discharge hopper 120 is located on one side of the rotary disc 210, corresponding to the horizontal position of the discharge through hole 221, for receiving the material discharged from the sliding cup 231.
[0031] In this embodiment, the adjusting disc 220 and the adjusting sleeve 340 are arranged coaxially with the rotary disc 210. The number of volume cups 230 and the sleeve cups 231 are several and evenly distributed circumferentially. The internal volume of the sleeve cups 231 and the volume cups 230 is adjusted by the telescopic sliding of the sleeve cups 231 within the volume cups 230.
[0032] In this embodiment, the first drive motor 320 and the second drive motor 330 are arranged in a relatively perpendicular direction. The first drive motor 320 is used to drive the rotary disk 210 to rotate, so that each sliding sleeve cup 231 is connected to the port of the forming cylinder 100 in sequence.
[0033] In this embodiment, the output end of the discharge drive rod 400 is provided with a push rod with the same diameter as the inner diameter of the sliding sleeve cup 231, and the inner diameter of the discharge through hole 221 is greater than or equal to the inner diameter of the sliding sleeve cup 231.
[0034] In this embodiment, the crank pin 332 is located on the top surface of the rotating disk 331, and the crank pin 332 is offset from the axis of the rotating disk 331. The rotation of the crank pin 332 drives the adjusting sleeve 340 and the adjusting disk 220 to slide axially along the main shaft 321, thereby adjusting the distance between the adjusting disk 220 and the rotating disk 210, changing the internal volume of the volume cup 230 and the sleeve cup 231, and realizing precise adjustment of the output.
[0035] Working principle
[0036] During operation, the first drive motor 320 drives the rotary disc 210 to rotate intermittently, causing several volumetric cups 230 and sliding sleeve cups 231 to rotate circumferentially. One side of the sliding sleeve cup 231 slides against the surface of the adjusting disc 220, while the adjusting disc 220 and the adjusting sliding sleeve 340 remain stationary. As they rotate, the volumetric cups 230 and sliding sleeve cups 231 connect sequentially with the port of the forming cylinder 100 via the rotary disc 210 to receive the output from the pumice machine.
[0037] Once the volume cup 230 and the sliding cup 231 are filled with mud, the first drive motor 320 continues to drive the rotary disk 210 to rotate, causing another set of volume cups 230 and sliding cups 231 to connect with the port of the forming cylinder 100. At this time, the volume cups 230 and sliding cups 231, which are now filled with mud, rotate to the position of the discharge through hole 221. Through the push rod at the output end of the discharge drive rod 400, the mud inside the sliding cup 231 is pushed out, falls into the discharge hopper 120, and slides out, completing the discharge.
[0038] When adjusting the discharge rate, the second drive motor 330 drives the rotating shaft disk 331 and crank pin 332 to rotate, which in turn drives the adjusting sleeve 340 and adjusting disk 220 to slide along the main shaft 321 axially, thereby changing the distance between the adjusting disk 220 and the rotating disk 210, adjusting the extension length of the sleeve cup 231, and thus changing the internal volume of the volume cup 230 and the sleeve cup 231, thereby controlling the discharge rate.
[0039] Through the above structure and working method, this utility model can achieve quantitative material output and flexible volume adjustment to meet diverse production needs, while improving the automation level and operational reliability of the equipment.
