Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sorghum crushing technology, specifically to a glutinous sorghum crusher. Background Technology
[0002] Sorghum is an annual herbaceous plant of the Poaceae family. Its stalks are relatively thick and erect, with supporting roots at the basal nodes. The leaf sheaths are hairless or slightly whitish, and the ligule is hard and membranous with a rounded tip and cilia on the edge. It prefers warm climates and is drought-resistant and flood-tolerant. According to its characteristics and uses, it can be divided into edible sorghum, sugar sorghum, broom sorghum, etc.
[0003] A sorghum crushing device disclosed in Publication No. CN220981817U is described. This technology includes a support leg, a crusher fixed above the support leg, and a drying mechanism installed above the crusher. By using the drying mechanism, sorghum is added to the inner cylinder through a feed pipe. After the sorghum is added, a heating plate is activated to dry the sorghum in the inner cylinder. After drying, the heating plate is closed and an electric push rod is activated. The electric push rod retracts, causing a fixed block to rise, which in turn causes the inner cylinder to rise. The rising inner cylinder separates from the baffle, and the sorghum is discharged through the gap between the inner cylinder and the baffle. The discharged sorghum enters the crusher along the inclined surface at the bottom of the outer cylinder for further crushing. This device can dry the sorghum, thus avoiding poor crushing results due to high moisture content.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned sorghum crushing device has the following disadvantages:
[0005] 1. The crushing device in this patent can dry sorghum through a drying mechanism. However, during use, the sorghum needs to be put into the inner cylinder and then released after drying. Moreover, the sorghum piled up in the inner cylinder also requires a long drying time, which makes it inconvenient for the crushing device to operate continuously.
[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, this application proposes a glutinous sorghum crusher. Utility Model Content

A support leg 12 is installed at the bottom end of the feeding channel 6. The left end of the feeding channel 6 is connected to the feed inlet 5. A conveying device 7 is installed in the inner cavity of the feeding channel 6. The conveying device 7 includes a driven roller 71, which is rotatably installed in the left inner cavity of the feeding channel 6. One end of a conveyor belt 72 is installed on the driven roller 71. The other end of the conveyor belt 72 passes through a driving roller 73, which is rotatably installed in the feeding channel. Inside the right end cavity of feed channel 6, the front end of the active roller 73 passes through the front side wall of feed channel 6 and is connected to a conveyor motor 74. The conveyor motor 74 is mounted on the equipment plate 75, which is mounted on the front outer wall of feed channel 6. A hot air device 8 is installed above the conveying device 7. The hot air device 8 includes a main pipe 81. Several branch pipes 82 are connected to the side wall of the main pipe 81. Hot air nozzles 83 are connected to the bottom wall of the branch pipes 82.

In use, the drive motor 22 operates, driving the corresponding crushing rollers 21 to crush the incoming sorghum.
[0032] Workflow: In operation, sorghum is first placed into the storage hopper 91. Then, the telescopic rod 93 operates, driving the control plate 92 to open the outlet at the bottom of the storage hopper 91. The sorghum in the storage hopper 91 then falls onto the conveyor belt 72 below. Driven by the conveyor belt 72, it moves to the left and then falls into the crushing component 2 through the feed port 5. At the same time, the drive motor 22 operates, driving the corresponding crushing rollers 21 to crush the sorghum. After crushing, the sorghum is discharged through the discharge port 4. During this process, after the sorghum falls onto the conveyor belt 72, the scraper 11 smooths the sorghum, making it more evenly distributed on the conveyor belt 72 and preventing accumulation.
