Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mixing station equipment, especially to a mixing station sand and gravel stock bin anti-arching device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the modern construction industry, sand and gravel, as a large amount of and extremely critical basic building material, its storage and supply stability plays a decisive role in the construction process. As the core place of building material production, the sand and gravel stock bin is the key facility to ensure the storage and efficient conveying of sand and gravel. However, in the actual production process, the sand and gravel stock bin arching problem occurs frequently, which has become a prominent problem restricting the production efficiency and operation stability of the mixing station.

[0003] Sand and gravel stock bin arching refers to the formation of arch-shaped clump structure above the discharge port of the stock bin due to the interaction of various complex factors. Once this phenomenon occurs, it will seriously hinder the normal discharge of sand and gravel, cause poor material conveying, and even completely block the discharge port, forcing the production of the mixing station to be interrupted.

[0004] Currently, in order to solve the sand and gravel stock bin arching problem, various methods have been tried in the industry. Some mixing stations install vibration devices on the inner wall of the stock bin to try to destroy the adhesion between the materials and the arch-shaped structure by vibration energy, so that the materials can flow again. However, long-term high-frequency vibration can easily cause fatigue damage to the stock bin structure, reducing the service life of the stock bin, and for sand and gravel materials with high moisture content and high viscosity, the vibration effect is often unsatisfactory. Some others use guide plates in the stock bin to guide the flow of materials and disperse the pressure of materials. However, in actual application, due to the huge pressure of sand and gravel, the guide plates often deform and fall off due to the inability to withstand the pressure, and the anti-arching effect is difficult to be durable and stable. In addition, manual intervention is also a common method. When arching occurs, workers need to enter the interior of the stock bin to break the arch by knocking, removing, etc. This method not only has low efficiency and consumes a lot of manpower and resources, but also has great safety risks, and workers face the risk of being buried by collapsing materials.

[0005] Therefore, the present application provides a mixing station sand and gravel stock bin anti-arching device to meet the needs. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0037] As an embodiment in the present embodiment, in order to improve the movement stability of the arch breaking plate 6, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 7 , Figure 9 As shown, the arch breaking plate 6 is provided with a sliding groove 60, a sliding bar 61 and an arch breaking tooth 63, the sliding bar 61 and the arch breaking tooth 63 are respectively located on the two sides of the arch breaking plate 6, the sliding bar 61 can slide in the sliding groove 60 of the adjacent arch breaking plate 6, and the sliding bar 61 cooperates with the adjacent sliding groove 60 to limit the two groups of arch breaking plates 6, the top and bottom of the arch breaking plate 6 are provided with a lug 62 connected with the chain 7, thereby ensuring the stability and arch breaking effect of the arch breaking plate 6 during the movement.

[0038] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When motor 3 is started, the output end of motor 3 drives the rotating arm 30 to start rotating. The end of the rotating arm 30 is hinged to the rack 32 through the connecting rod 31. During the rotation of the rotating arm 30, the rack 32 is pulled to make reciprocating linear motion in the rack sleeve 20 on the outer wall of the hopper 2. Since the rack 32 meshes with the gear 40 at one end of the top shaft 4, the linear motion of the rack 32 is converted into the rotational motion of the gear 40, which in turn drives the top shaft 4 to achieve reciprocating rotation.

[0039] When the top shaft 4 rotates, the driving I-beam wheel 41 on it rotates accordingly. The upper chain 7 is wound around the driving I-beam wheel 41. Due to the anti-slip teeth on the outer wall of the driving I-beam wheel 41 and the pressing action of the pressure roller 24, the chain 7 can move stably with the driving I-beam wheel 41. The guide cover 21 also protects the top shaft 4, preventing sand and gravel materials from directly impacting the top shaft 4. When the top shaft 4 rotates forward or backward, the upper chain 7 drives one set of arch-breaking plates 6 to move upward, while the other set of arch-breaking plates 6 moves downward. The two sets of arch-breaking plates 6 reciprocate in opposite directions, continuously breaking up the sand and gravel materials in the hopper 2.

[0040] During the movement of the arch-breaking plate 6, the two sets of arch-breaking plates 6 are vertically connected by the cooperation of the sliding strip 61 and the sliding groove 60 to ensure the stability of the movement. The arch-breaking teeth 63 evenly distributed on the arch-breaking plate 6 can insert into the arched sand and gravel material in the hopper 2 when the arch-breaking plate 6 moves up and down, destroying the arch structure and better achieving the purpose of arch breaking.

[0041] Meanwhile, the lower chain 7 is wound around the driven I-beam 50 of the bottom shaft 5. When the upper chain 7 drives the arch-breaking plate 6 to move, the lower chain 7 also moves accordingly, thereby driving the bottom shaft 5 to rotate. The rotating drum 51 on the bottom shaft 5 rotates together with the bottom shaft 5. The blades on the outer wall of the rotating drum 51 agitate the sand and gravel materials near the discharge port of the hopper 2, assisting in arch breaking and promoting smooth material discharge.

[0042] With the continuous operation of motor 3, the top shaft 4 and bottom shaft 5 reciprocate continuously, driving the arch-breaking plate 6 to move up and down continuously and the rotating drum 51 to stir continuously, thereby effectively breaking the arching phenomenon in the sand and gravel bin of the mixing plant, ensuring that the sand and gravel can flow out of the bin 2 smoothly, and maintaining the continuity and stability of the mixing plant's production.

[0043] The electromechanical connections involved in this utility model are common practices used by those skilled in the art, and technical inspiration can be obtained through a limited number of experiments; they are common knowledge.

[0044] Components not described in detail in this article are existing technologies.

[0045] Finally, it should be noted that: the above only for the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application, although the foregoing embodiments of the present application has been described in detail, for the skilled in the art, it still can be modified, or for part of the technical features of the equivalent replacement, within the spirit and principles of the present application, any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc., should be included within the scope of the present application.
