Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of lime feeders, specifically an anti-clogging lime feeder. Background Technology

[0002] The lime feeder is a key piece of equipment in the lime production line. It is responsible for continuously and evenly conveying limestone or other raw materials from storage bins, hoppers and other equipment to crushers, screening machines or transport machinery to ensure the stable operation of subsequent processes.

[0003] Lime absorbs moisture and undergoes a hydration reaction to produce viscous calcium hydroxide, which easily leads to granule agglomeration. This causes the agglomerated lime to clog the feeder during the feeding process. On the other hand, when the feeder's feeding speed is greater than the conveying speed, it can also easily cause material to clog the feeder, affecting the conveying and feeding of lime.

[0004] Therefore, we propose an anti-clogging lime feeder. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an anti-clogging lime feeder in order to improve the anti-clogging effect during lime feeding.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A clog-resistant lime feeder includes a feeder body, a limiting mechanism, a horn-shaped feed inlet, and an anti-clogging mechanism. A motor is fixedly connected to the right side of the feeder body, and a rotating rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. The end of the rotating rod away from the motor is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the other side of the feeder body through a bearing. An auger blade is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating rod. The horn-shaped feed inlet is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the right end of the feeder body, and the horn-shaped feed inlet communicates with the internal cavity of the feeder body through a through hole.

[0008] The limiting mechanism includes a fixed sleeve, which is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the left end of the rotating rod. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixed sleeve. A limiting plate is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod away from the fixed sleeve. The side of the limiting plate away from the connecting rod is in contact with the inner wall of the right end of the feeder body, and the left end of the limiting plate extends to the lower opening of the through hole.

[0009] The anti-clogging mechanism includes a high-pressure air pump, which is fixedly connected to the upper right surface of the feeder body. The air outlet of the high-pressure air pump is connected to an air guide pipe. The end of the air guide pipe away from the high-pressure air pump is connected to the internal cavity of the feeder body. A filter screen is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the opening at the end of the air guide pipe near the feeder body.

[0010] Furthermore, a support column is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the feeder body.

[0011] Furthermore, the left end of the feeder body has an internal cavity connected to a discharge port, and a valve is installed on the outer surface of the discharge port.

[0012] Furthermore, a solenoid valve is installed on the outer surface of the through hole.

[0013] Furthermore, a second solenoid valve is installed on the outer surface of the air guide tube.

[0014] Furthermore, the input terminal of the motor is electrically connected to an external power source.

[0015] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] In this invention, when feeding lime, the lime can be put into the horn-shaped feed inlet. Then, the motor is started, causing the rotating rod to drive the auger blades to rotate, thereby conveying the lime from right to left. At this time, the rotating rod will also drive the limiting plate to rotate through the connecting rod, forming a certain interval restriction at the lower end of the through hole, preventing too much lime from entering the feeder body at once and causing conveying blockage. On the other hand, when the conveying inside the feeder body is blocked, the solenoid valve can be closed, and then the high-pressure air pump can be started to inject high-pressure gas into the feeder body through the air guide pipe. The high-pressure gas will impact the blockage inside the feeder body, thereby clearing the conveying blockage. The combination of the above structures improves the anti-blocking effect when feeding lime. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0022] Example:

[0023] Reference Figures 1-3 A clog-resistant lime feeder includes a feeder body 1, a limiting mechanism 2, a horn-shaped feed inlet 3, and an anti-clogging mechanism 4. A motor 11 is fixedly connected to the right side of the feeder body 1, and a support column 16 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the feeder body 1. A rotating rod 12 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 11. The end of the rotating rod 12 away from the motor 11 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the other side of the feeder body 1 through a bearing. An auger blade 13 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating rod 12. The horn-shaped feed inlet 3 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the right end of the feeder body 1 and is connected to the internal cavity of the feeder body 1 through a through hole 17. The input end of the motor 11 is electrically connected to an external power source. Specifically, when feeding lime, lime can be put into the horn-shaped feed inlet 3, and then the motor 11 is started to make the rotating rod 12 drive the auger blade 13 to rotate, thereby driving the lime to be conveyed from right to left.

[0024] Reference Figures 1-3 The limiting mechanism 2 includes a fixed sleeve 21, which is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the left end of the rotating rod 12. A connecting rod 22 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixed sleeve 21. A limiting plate 23 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod 22 away from the fixed sleeve 21. The side of the limiting plate 23 away from the connecting rod 22 is in contact with the inner wall of the right end of the feeder body 1, and the left end of the limiting plate 23 extends to the lower opening of the through hole 17. Specifically, the rotating rod 12 will also drive the limiting plate 23 to rotate through the connecting rod 22, forming a certain interval-type restriction on the lower end of the through hole 17 to prevent too much lime from entering the feeder body 1 at one time and causing conveying blockage.

[0025] Reference Figures 1-3The anti-clogging mechanism 4 includes a high-pressure air pump 41, which is fixedly connected to the upper right surface of the feeder body 1. The air outlet of the high-pressure air pump 41 is connected to an air guide pipe 42. The end of the air guide pipe 42 away from the high-pressure air pump 41 is connected to the internal cavity of the feeder body 1. A filter screen 43 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the opening at the end of the air guide pipe 42 closest to the feeder body 1. A solenoid valve 18 is installed on the outer surface of the through hole 17, and a solenoid valve 44 is installed on the outer surface of the air guide pipe 42. The internal cavity at the left end of the feeder body 1 is connected to a discharge port 14. A valve 15 is installed on the outer surface of the discharge port 14. Specifically, when the internal conveying of the feeder body 1 is blocked, the solenoid valve 18 can be closed and the solenoid valve 2 44 can be opened. Then, the high-pressure air pump 41 can be started to inject high-pressure gas into the feeder body 1 through the air guide pipe 42. The high-pressure gas will impact the blockage position inside the feeder body 1, thereby clearing the conveying of the feeder body 1 so that the conveyed lime can be discharged from the discharge port 14 for feeding. The combination of the above structures improves the anti-blocking effect when feeding lime.

[0026] The implementation principle of an embodiment of an anti-clogging lime feeder in this application is as follows:

[0027] When using this device, first connect an external power source. When feeding lime, put the lime into the horn inlet 3, then start the motor 11 to make the rotating rod 12 drive the auger blades 13 to rotate, thereby driving the lime to be fed from right to left. At this time, the rotating rod 12 will also drive the limiting plate 23 to rotate through the connecting rod 22, forming a certain interval restriction on the lower end of the through hole 17, preventing too much lime from entering the feeder body 1 at one time and causing conveying blockage. On the other hand, when the conveying inside the feeder body 1 is blocked, the solenoid valve 18 can be closed and the solenoid valve 24 can be opened. Then, the high-pressure air pump 41 can be started to inject high-pressure gas into the feeder body 1 through the air guide pipe 42, so that the high-pressure gas will impact the blockage position inside the feeder body 1, thereby clearing the conveying of the feeder body 1, so that the conveyed lime can be discharged from the outlet 14 for feeding. The combination of the above structures improves the anti-blocking effect when feeding lime.
