AI Technical Summary
Existing bentonite extrusion devices use a screw feeder to extrude material, resulting in uniform pressure of the raw material inside the pipeline, making it difficult for the bentonite to be fully sodium-treated.
The Y-shaped three-way pipe structure is adopted. The spiral feeding rod pushes the raw material in the two vertical pipes of the Y-shaped three-way pipe. Combined with the motor-driven transmission system, the raw material is strongly squeezed when it merges in the lower half of the Y-shaped three-way pipe, and the mixing of the raw material is achieved by the stirring rod.
This process achieves full sodium solubilization of bentonite and uniform mixing of raw materials, thus improving the extrusion effect.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bentonite processing technology, and in particular to a bentonite extrusion device. Background Technology
[0002] In the bentonite processing, effective extrusion treatment of bentonite is crucial; in practical applications, bentonite extrusion equipment typically requires the following technologies:
[0003] 1. Extrusion mechanisms, such as hydraulic extruders and screw extruders, can apply pressure to bentonite to shape it;
[0004] 2. Drive mechanism, such as electric motor or hydraulic motor, provides power to the extrusion device;
[0005] 3. Mixing mechanisms, such as agitators and mixing drums, ensure that the raw materials of bentonite are uniformly mixed before extrusion.
[0006] Existing extrusion devices use a screw feeder to feed and extrude materials.
[0007] However, during the implementation of the above technical solution, at least the following technical problems were found: The above extrusion device uses a screw feeder to feed and extrude materials. The screw feeder usually feeds materials in a single feed pipe. Therefore, the pressure on the raw material in the pipe is uniform and the pressure on the raw material is low, so it is difficult for the bentonite to be fully sodiumized. Utility Model Content
[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a bentonite extrusion device that solves the problem of insufficient sodium solubilization of bentonite caused by the feeding and extrusion of material through a screw feeder rod. The screw feeder rod typically feeds material through a single feed pipe, resulting in uniform pressure on the material within the pipe and relatively low pressure on the material.
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0010] A bentonite extrusion device includes a base, on which a mixing hopper is fixedly installed. A Y-shaped tee is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mixing hopper. Screw feeders for extruding bentonite are symmetrically rotated inside the Y-shaped tee. A motor is fixedly installed at the side of the mixing hopper. Drive wheels are fixedly installed on the motor and the two screw feeders. A drive belt is installed between the three drive wheels. The two screw feeders are located in two vertical pipes in the upper part of the Y-shaped tee.
[0011] Preferably, a hopper is fixedly installed on the base.
[0012] Preferably, the hopper has a first storage bin.
[0013] Preferably, a second storage bin is provided on the hopper.
[0014] Preferably, the first storage silo is connected to the side of the mixing drum; the raw materials inside the first storage silo can be discharged into the mixing drum.
[0015] Preferably, the second storage silo is connected to the top of the mixing drum; the raw materials in the second storage silo can be discharged into the mixing drum.
[0016] Preferably, agitator rods are fixedly installed on the spiral feed rod in an alternating pattern; the agitator rods can rotate along with the spiral feed rod.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. The mixed raw materials will fall into the Y-shaped tee. The rotation of the screw feeder will push the raw materials down through the two vertical pipes in the upper part of the Y-shaped tee until the raw materials enter the lower part of the Y-shaped tee. During this process, the lower part of the Y-shaped tee is formed by merging the two pipes into one. Since the volume of the feed remains the same, but the volume of the Y-shaped tee decreases, the raw materials in the lower part of the Y-shaped tee will be strongly squeezed under the push of the two screw feeders, thus achieving the effect of fully sodiumizing the bentonite.
[0019] 2. Pour all the raw materials into the hopper, and then the raw materials in the hopper will fall into the mixing barrel. Start the motor, and the motor will drive the two spiral feeding rods to rotate simultaneously through the transmission wheel and transmission belt. The spiral feeding rods will drive the stirring rod to rotate, and the stirring rod will stir the raw materials in the mixing barrel, achieving the effect of mixing the raw materials before extrusion.

[0026] This application provides a bentonite extrusion device that effectively solves the problem of the aforementioned extrusion device. The extrusion is performed by a screw feeder, which typically feeds material through a single feed pipe. Therefore, the pressure on the material within the pipe is relatively uniform, resulting in low pressure and difficulty in fully sodium-coating the bentonite. The mixed material falls into a Y-shaped tee pipe. The rotation of the screw feeder pushes the material downwards through the two vertical pipes in the upper part of the Y-shaped tee pipe until it enters the lower half of the Y-shaped tee pipe. During this process, the lower half of the Y-shaped tee pipe is formed by the merging of two pipes. A single pipe, with a constant feed volume but a smaller Y-shaped tee, causes the material in the lower half of the Y-shaped tee to be strongly compressed under the push of two spiral feed rods, achieving the effect of fully sodium-sodiuming the bentonite. The raw materials are poured into a hopper, and then fall into a mixing tank. The motor starts, and through the transmission wheel and belt, it drives the two spiral feed rods to rotate simultaneously. The spiral feed rods then drive the stirring rod to rotate, which in turn stirs the raw materials in the mixing tank, achieving the effect of mixing the raw materials before compression.
[0027] Example
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the technical solution in this application embodiment effectively solves the problem of the above-mentioned extrusion device. It uses a screw feeder for feeding and extrusion. The screw feeder typically feeds material through a single feeding pipe, resulting in balanced pressure on the raw material within the pipe. This lower pressure on the raw material hinders the sufficient sodium formation of bentonite. The overall approach is as follows:
[0029] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a bentonite extrusion device, including a base 1, a mixing tank 2 fixedly installed on the base 1, a Y-shaped tee pipe 3 fixedly installed at the bottom of the mixing tank 2, and a spiral feeding rod 4 for extruding bentonite symmetrically rotatably installed inside the Y-shaped tee pipe 3. A motor 5 is fixedly installed at the side end of the mixing tank 2, and transmission wheels 6 are fixedly installed on the motor 5 and the two spiral feeding rods 4.
[0030] A transmission belt 7 is installed between the three transmission wheels 6; two spiral feeding rods 4 are respectively located in the two vertical pipes on the upper part of the Y-shaped three-way pipe 3; a hopper 8 is fixedly installed on the base 1; a first storage bin 9 is opened on the hopper 8; a second storage bin 11 is opened on the hopper 8; the first storage bin 9 is connected to the side end of the mixing barrel 2.
[0031] The raw materials inside the first storage bin 9 can be discharged into the mixing barrel 2. The second storage bin 11 is connected to the top of the mixing barrel 2. The raw materials in the second storage bin 11 can be discharged into the mixing barrel 2. A stirring rod 12 is fixedly installed on the spiral feeding rod 4 in an alternating manner. The stirring rod 12 can rotate with the spiral feeding rod 4.
[0032] Base 1: This is the main frame or supporting structure of the entire device, providing a foundation for the installation of other components;
[0033] Mixing tank 2: Used to hold raw materials and is the place where raw materials are mixed;
[0034] Y-shaped tee pipe 3: This is the main part for raw material extrusion. Its structural change (from two pipes to one pipe) achieves strong extrusion of the raw material.
[0035] Screw feeder 4: Used to push the raw material to slide in the pipeline and achieve the squeezing effect;
[0036] Motor 5: Drives two spiral feed rods 4 to rotate via transmission wheel 6 and transmission belt 7;
[0037] Transmission wheel 6: Installed on motor 5 and screw feed rod 4 respectively to transmit power;
[0038] Transmission belt 7: Transmits the power output from the transmission wheel 6 on the motor 5 to the power output on the screw feed rod 4;
[0039] Hopper 8: It has a first storage bin 9 and a second storage bin 11 for receiving and temporarily storing raw materials and conveying them to the mixing bin 2;
[0040] Stirring rod 12: Stirs the raw materials while the spiral feed rod 4 rotates, promoting the mixing of the raw materials.
[0041] Working principle:
[0042] The first step is to pour all the raw materials into the hopper 8 during use. The raw materials in the hopper 8 will then fall into the mixing tank 2. The motor 5 will start and drive the two spiral feeding rods 4 to rotate simultaneously through the transmission wheel 6 and the transmission belt 7. The spiral feeding rods 4 will drive the stirring rod 12 to rotate, and the stirring rod 12 will stir the raw materials in the mixing tank 2, so that the raw materials in the mixing tank 2 can be mixed.
[0043] In the second step, the mixed raw materials will fall into the Y-shaped tee pipe 3. The rotation of the spiral feed rod 4 will push the raw materials to slide downwards through the two vertical pipes in the upper part of the Y-shaped tee pipe 3 until the raw materials enter the lower half of the Y-shaped tee pipe 3. During this process, the lower half of the Y-shaped tee pipe 3 is formed by merging the two pipes into one pipe. Since the volume of the feed remains unchanged, but the volume of the Y-shaped tee pipe 3 decreases, the raw materials in the lower half of the Y-shaped tee pipe 3 will be subjected to strong compression under the push of the two spiral feed rods 4, so that the bentonite can be fully sodiumized.
[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
