And the inlet of the discharge pipe is provided with a grading impeller, so as to screen the powder, only let the particle size of the powder product through.
[0005] As shown in Figure 1 The current impeller is directly rotating installed at the top of the shell, the front end corresponds to the lower grinding chamber, and the rear end corresponds to the discharge pipe. However, because the impeller is a rotating structure, there is inevitably a certain gap between the edge of the impeller and the mounting seat. If the gap is set too large, it will cause the unqualified materials with large particles to pass through, affecting the quality of the discharged powder. If the gap is set too small, the friction and collision between the impeller and the mounting seat will occur, causing damage to the impeller, and even causing the impeller to be stuck, affecting the normal production. Therefore, a more reasonable sealing structure of the edge of the impeller is needed. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
[0006] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a flour mill discharge impeller structure, which solves the problem of the gap between the edge of the impeller and the fixing seat in the prior art, and the sealing structure effect is not good.
[0007] According to an embodiment of this utility model, a grinding mill discharge impeller structure includes a mounting base, a discharge channel disposed above the mounting base, and an impeller disposed below the mounting base. A rotating shaft is fixedly disposed in the middle of the impeller. An opening is provided on the mounting base. The discharge channel and the corresponding opening of the impeller are configured to form a discharge path that is connected vertically. The impeller includes an impeller body, a first seal, and a second seal arranged sequentially from bottom to top. The impeller body, the first seal, and the second seal form an integral structure fixed along the rotation direction of the impeller. A first auxiliary seal and a second auxiliary seal are respectively disposed on the mounting base at positions corresponding to the first and second seals.

[0008] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the top end face of the impeller body is not less than the diameter of the opening, and both the first and second seals are annular structures with inner diameters not less than the diameter of the opening.
[0009] Furthermore, the mounting base is provided with an annular connecting frame protruding towards the impeller side. The first secondary seal is disposed on the connecting frame and extends towards the center of the mounting base, thereby connecting with the first seal. The second secondary seal is disposed on the surface of the mounting base between the connecting frame and the opening, and faces the impeller direction.
[0010] Furthermore, the second seal is connected to the inner edge of the surface of the first seal near the center, so that the first seal is connected to the first auxiliary seal through its outer edge, while the end of the second seal near the discharge channel is connected to the second auxiliary seal.
[0011] Furthermore, the connecting frame has protruding blocks symmetrically arranged on the inner side of the impeller shaft and the second seal has protruding blocks symmetrically arranged on the outer side of the impeller shaft. A rotating bearing is provided on the side of the block near the impeller.

This utility model has two independent sealing structures, inner and outer, which provides better sealing effect and avoids the problem of large powder particles passing through and affecting product quality. Furthermore, the first sealing element and the first secondary sealing element, the second sealing element and the second secondary sealing element respectively form a rotating sealing structure parallel to the impeller rotation direction. Therefore, the rotating shaft is less likely to cause friction or jamming at the sealing point when rotating, making the equipment run more smoothly and reducing maintenance and repair costs.
[0016] 2. In this utility model, the impeller and the mounting base have two sets of sealing connection structures, one upper and one lower, and one lower and one upper sealing elements, and a rotating bearing located between them. This seals and limits the connection between the impeller and the mounting base in three directions, making it less prone to vibration and skew when the impeller is affected by the vibration generated by the grinding equipment below during operation. This makes the impeller rotate more smoothly and further reduces the friction with the mounting base.

The mounting base 1 is fixed to the top of the mill, the impeller 3 is the only outlet at the top of the mill, and the discharge channel 2 is connected to a storage bin via a pipe.
[0024] In this embodiment, a rotating shaft 74 is fixedly mounted in the middle of the impeller 3. The rotating shaft 74 extends through the discharge channel 2 and is connected to a motor, thereby driving the impeller 3 to rotate. The bottom end of the rotating shaft 74 is detachably connected to the impeller 3. In this embodiment, a screw is preferably used to fix the impeller 3 to the rotating shaft 74 through the mounting hole in the center of the impeller 3. The mounting base 1 is provided with an opening, and the discharge channel 2 and the impeller 3 are arranged with corresponding openings to form a vertically connected discharge path. It should be noted that the inner diameter of the top end face of the impeller body 31 is not less than the diameter of the opening to maintain a sufficient feeding area.
[0025] The impeller 3 includes an impeller body 31, a first seal 32, and a second seal 33 arranged sequentially from bottom to top. The impeller body 31, the first seal 32, and the second seal 33 form an integral structure fixed along the rotation direction of the impeller 3. It should be noted that these three components are detachable along the rotation axis 74, remaining fixed only in the rotation direction perpendicular to the rotation axis 74. A first auxiliary seal 12 and a second auxiliary seal 13 are respectively provided on the mounting base 1 at positions corresponding to the first seal 32 and the second seal 33. The first seal 32 and the first auxiliary seal 12, the second seal 33, and the second auxiliary seal 13 respectively form a rotational sealing structure parallel to the rotation direction of the impeller 3. Preferably, the first seal 32 and the first auxiliary seal 12, the second seal 33, and the second auxiliary seal 13 are connected by labyrinth sealing rings, thereby maintaining a rotational connection while providing excellent sealing performance and preventing dust passage.
[0026] like Figure 2As shown, in a further embodiment, both the first seal 32 and the second seal 33 are annular structures, and their inner diameters are not less than the diameter of the opening. The mounting base 1 is provided with an annular connecting frame 11 protruding towards the impeller 3. The first auxiliary seal 12 is disposed on the connecting frame 11 and extends towards the center of the mounting base 1, thereby connecting with the first seal 32. In this embodiment, the first auxiliary seal 12 is detachably connected to the bottom end of the connecting frame 11 via a screw. The second auxiliary seal 13 is disposed on the surface of the mounting base 1 between the connecting frame 11 and the opening, facing the impeller 3. The second seal 33 is connected to the inner edge of the surface of the first seal 32 near the center, allowing the first seal 32 to be detachably connected to the first auxiliary seal 12 via a screw through its outer edge, while the end of the second seal 33 near the discharge channel 2 is connected to the second auxiliary seal 13.

A rotary bearing is provided on the side of the block 5 near the impeller 3. The first seal 32 and the first auxiliary seal 12 have protrusions 6 corresponding to the blocks 5 on their surfaces near the discharge channel 2, thereby limiting and fixing the rotating part and the fixed part of the rotary bearing respectively. The rotary bearing can provide horizontal support for the impeller 3, and at the same time lubricate the rotational contact between the first seal 32 and the first auxiliary seal 12, the second seal 33 and the second auxiliary seal 13, so as to avoid contact friction of the toothed structure of the sealing ring when the impeller 3 vibrates radially.
[0028] Furthermore, the first sealing element 32 has several protruding locking heads 8 on its surface near the impeller body 31, and the impeller 3 has corresponding locking heads 8 with locking grooves, so that the locking heads 8 and the locking grooves are engaged in a direction parallel to the impeller 3's rotation axis 74, forming a fixation relative to the impeller 3's rotation direction. In this way, the first sealing element 32 is pressed and fixed by the impeller body 31 upwards to the bottom of the first secondary sealing element 12 and the second sealing element 33, realizing a detachable connection, which facilitates subsequent disassembly and assembly, and allows for faster replacement of parts.
