Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hopper technology, and in particular to a special hopper for adding antioxidants. Background Technology
[0002] Additives include various chemical additives such as feed additives, food additives, concrete additives, and engine oil additives. Classified by function, antioxidants are a type of additive. Antioxidants are a class of chemical polymers that can prevent polymer aging and extend their service life, and are also known as "anti-aging agents".
[0003] In existing technologies, when adding antioxidants, the antioxidants are usually poured directly into the polymer in one go and then mixed with the polymer. This makes it difficult for the antioxidants to be fully and evenly mixed with the polymer, thus affecting the quality of the fused polymer and failing to meet the usage requirements. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the background art by proposing a special hopper for adding antioxidants.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A special hopper for adding antioxidants includes:
[0007] hopper;
[0008] The feed pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the hopper;
[0009] The motor is located above the feed pipe, and right-angle brackets are fixedly installed on both sides of the motor and the top of the feed hopper.
[0010] An intermittent feeding assembly includes an incomplete gear fixedly mounted on the motor drive end. A movable frame surrounds the outer side of the incomplete gear. Limiting rods are fixedly mounted on both sides of the movable frame and slidably inserted into the side wall of a right-angle frame. First racks are fixedly mounted on the front and rear inner sides of the movable frame, and the first racks are either engaged or disengaged from the incomplete gear. A second rack is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the movable frame via a right-angle rod. A drive gear is engaged on the front side of the second rack. A rotating rod is coaxially fixedly mounted on the bottom of the drive gear. A spiral feeding plate is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating rod, and the side of the spiral feeding plate is movably fitted into the lower port of the hopper. A first bearing is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating rod. A first connecting rod is fixedly mounted between the outer ring of the first bearing and both right-angle frames.
[0011] Preferably, a plurality of agitating rods are fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating rod, and the agitating rods are placed inside the hopper.
[0012] Preferably, a second bearing is fixedly installed on the surface of the rotating rod, and two second connecting rods are symmetrically fixedly installed on the outer ring of the second bearing, and the second connecting rods are fixedly installed inside the hopper.
[0013] Preferably, a limiting shaft is fixedly mounted on the shaft of the drive gear, and the limiting shaft is movably inserted into the drive end shaft of the motor.
[0014] Preferably, the longitudinal section of each of the limiting rods is rectangular.
[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of the special hopper for adding antioxidants provided by this utility model are as follows:
[0016] 1. By intermittently meshing the incomplete gear driven by the motor with the two first racks in the moving frame, the reciprocating movement of the moving frame can be realized. Then, under the meshing of the second rack with the drive gear, the rotating rod and the screw feeder can rotate together, which can intermittently feed the antioxidant in the hopper into the designated mechanical equipment, which helps the antioxidant to be uniformly mixed with the polymer in the mechanical equipment.
[0017] 2. When the rotating rod reciprocates, it can also drive each stirring rod to rotate synchronously, stirring the additive in the hopper, which can effectively prevent it from condensing.
[0018] In summary, this invention, through the reciprocating rotation of the spiral feed plate at the lower port of the hopper, can intermittently feed antioxidants into designated mechanical equipment, which helps to uniformly mix the antioxidants with the polymers in the mechanical equipment. At the same time, the multiple agitators moving in a circular motion can also effectively prevent the antioxidants from condensing in the hopper. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 3 A special hopper for adding antioxidants, comprising:
[0025] Hopper 1; feed pipe 2, fixedly connected to the top of hopper 1; motor 3, set above feed pipe 2, with right-angle brackets 4 fixedly installed on both sides of motor 3 and the top of feed hopper 1. When in use, hopper 1 can be fixedly connected to the feed port of external designated mechanical equipment for adding antioxidants.
[0026] The intermittent feeding assembly includes an incomplete gear 5 fixedly installed on the drive end of the motor 3. A movable frame 6 surrounds the outside of the incomplete gear 5. Limiting rods 7 are fixedly installed on both sides of the movable frame 6, and the limiting rods 7 are slidably inserted into the side wall of the right-angle frame 4. The longitudinal section of each limiting rod 7 is rectangular, which plays a limiting role on the movable frame 6, so that the movable frame 6 will not deflect when it moves left and right.
[0027] The front and rear inner sides of the movable frame 6 are fixedly installed with first racks 8, and the first racks 8 are engaged or disengaged with the incomplete gears 5. The bottom of the movable frame 6 is fixedly installed with a second rack 10 through a right-angle rod 9. The front side of the second rack 10 is engaged with a drive gear 11. The bottom of the drive gear 11 is coaxially fixedly installed with a rotating rod 12. The axis of the drive gear 11 is fixedly installed with a limit shaft 19, and the limit shaft 19 is movably inserted into the drive end axis of the motor 3, which improves the stability of the transmission rod 12 when rotating.
[0028] A spiral feed plate 13 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating rod 12, and the side of the spiral feed plate 13 is movably fitted into the lower port of the hopper 1. A first bearing 14 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating rod 12. A first connecting rod 15 is fixedly mounted between the outer ring of the first bearing 14 and the two right-angle frames 4. In use, the antioxidant is first put into the hopper 1 through the feed pipe 2, and then the motor 3 is started to drive the incomplete gear 5 to rotate. When the incomplete gear 5 meshes with one of the first racks 8, it drives the moving frame 6 to move laterally. When the full gear 5 disengages from the first rack 8, it meshes with another first rack 8, which can drive the moving frame 6 to move in the opposite direction. Under the continuous rotation of the incomplete gear 5, the moving frame 5 reciprocates. Thus, under the meshing of the second rack 10 and the drive gear 11, the rotating rod 12 can be driven to rotate reciprocally, so that the screw feed plate 13 can rotate reciprocally, intermittently feeding the antioxidant in the hopper 1 into the mechanical equipment that needs to add antioxidant. This helps the antioxidant to mix evenly with the polymer in the mechanical equipment to meet the usage requirements.
[0029] Furthermore, multiple agitator rods 16 are fixedly installed on the surface of the rotating rod 12, and the agitator rods 16 are placed inside the hopper 1. When the rotating rod 12 reciprocates, it can also drive each agitator rod 16 to rotate synchronously, agitating the additive in the hopper 1, which can effectively prevent it from condensing. A second bearing 17 is fixedly installed on the surface of the rotating rod 12, and two second connecting rods 18 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the outer ring of the second bearing 17. The second connecting rods 18 are fixedly installed inside the hopper 1, ensuring the stability of each agitator rod 16 in the hopper 1 during circumferential motion.
[0030] To further clarify, the aforementioned fixed connection should be interpreted broadly unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited. For example, it may be welding, gluing, or integral molding, or other conventional methods well known to those skilled in the art.
[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
