[0021] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the feeding trough of this utility model embodiment includes a feeding bucket 1, a liquid receiving tray 2, and a liquid receiving insert plate 3.
[0023] Specifically, the upper end of the feeding bucket 1 is connected to the outlet of the centrifuge and the outer wall of the feeding bucket 1 is provided with an adapter. The liquid receiving tray 2 is installed on one side of the feeding bucket 1 and is connected to the adapter. The liquid receiving plate 3 is horizontally arranged inside the feeding bucket 1 and is detachable relative to the feeding bucket 1. One end of the liquid receiving plate 3 extends out of the adapter and into the liquid receiving tray 2, or one end of the liquid receiving plate 3 is connected to the adapter.
[0024] Understandably, when the centrifuge is discharging a fixed dry material, the liquid receiving plate 3 can be removed, and the dry material falls directly into the material conveyor through the discharge bucket 1. When cleaning the centrifuge is required, the liquid receiving plate 3 is installed, and the liquid or wet material flowing out of the centrifuge can flow out along the liquid receiving plate 3 from the side interface into the liquid receiving tray 2. The liquid receiving tray 2 is equipped with a liquid discharge pipe 8 for conveying the liquid in the liquid receiving tray 2. Therefore, this application can flexibly install and remove the liquid receiving plate 3 according to the centrifuge's discharge situation to meet different discharge requirements for dry materials, cleaning liquids, and wet materials.
[0025] In this embodiment of the utility model, the upper end of the feeding tank 1 is connected to the outlet of the centrifuge, and the outer wall of the feeding tank 1 is provided with an adapter. The liquid receiving tray 2 is installed on one side of the feeding tank 1 and communicates with the adapter. The liquid receiving plate 3 is horizontally arranged inside the feeding tank 1 and is detachable relative to the feeding tank 1. One end of the liquid receiving plate 3 extends out of the adapter and into the liquid receiving tray 2, or one end of the liquid receiving plate 3 is connected to the adapter. Thus, by disassembling and assembling the liquid receiving plate 3, the two working conditions of normal feeding of dry materials and transfer of cleaning liquid into the liquid receiving tray 2 can be met. There is no need to frequently move the liquid receiving tray 2, making the operation simple and convenient and saving manpower.
[0026] Preferably, such as Figure 2As shown, the liquid receiving plate 3 extends upward at an angle away from the adapter. Therefore, the angled liquid receiving plate 3 guides the liquid towards the liquid receiving tray 2, preventing liquid accumulation.
[0027] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the outer wall of the feeding barrel 1 is also provided with an insertion port. The insertion port and the adapter are located on both sides of the feeding barrel 1, and the liquid receiving plate 3 is inserted into the feeding barrel 1 through the insertion port. Specifically, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, the liquid receiving plate 3 can be inserted along the socket during assembly, and then the other end can be extended out of the adapter. That is, the two ends of the liquid receiving plate 3 are respectively inserted into the socket and the adapter. When it is necessary to disassemble the liquid receiving plate 3, the operator can grab the outer end of the liquid receiving plate 3 and pull it out from the socket. The whole process can be completed by a single person, which is simple and efficient.
[0028] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, a guide plate 4 is provided on the inner wall of the feeding barrel 1. The guide plate 4 is located above the liquid receiving plate 3 and extends inward at an inclination toward the feeding barrel 1. Thus, the inclined guide plate 4 can guide the liquid toward the liquid receiving plate 3, ensuring that the liquid falls fully onto the liquid receiving plate 3 and preventing the liquid from spilling into the material conveyor.
[0029] Furthermore, the feeding hopper 1 includes a left side wall and a right side wall spaced apart in the width direction of the adapter. Both the left and right side walls are equipped with guide plates 4, and the lower ends of both guide plates 4 are in contact with the upper surface of the receiving plate. It is understood that the width of the adapter is optional; that is, the adapter can perfectly match the width of the feeding hopper 1, or it can be relatively narrower. When the width of the adapter is less than the width of the feeding hopper 1, in order to prevent liquid from falling from both sides of the receiving plate 3 into the material conveyor below, the guide plates 4 on both the left and right side walls are used to guide the liquid in the edge space to the receiving plate 3, thus preventing liquid spillage.
[0030] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, both the left and right side walls are provided with inwardly protruding liquid receiving grooves 5. The liquid receiving grooves 5 are located below and support the liquid receiving plate 3, and are connected to the discharge port. It can be understood that if the cleaning fluid volume is too large, causing the liquid receiving plate 3 to overflow due to insufficient liquid transfer, the liquid receiving grooves 5 located below the liquid receiving plate 3 can catch the overflowing liquid and guide it to the transfer interface, and then discharge it into the liquid receiving tray 2, ensuring the reliability of liquid transfer to the liquid receiving tray 2.
[0031] In addition, the liquid receiving tank 5 can serve as a support to provide load-bearing capacity for the liquid receiving plate 3, thus preventing excessive load on the wall of the discharge bucket 1.
[0032] In some embodiments, the size of the feed plate 4 is larger than the size of the liquid receiving tank 5 in the width direction of the adapter. In other words, the feed plate 4 can completely cover the liquid receiving tank 5, so that when feeding normally, the feed plate 4 can guide the material away from the liquid receiving tank 5 and prevent material from falling into the liquid receiving tank 5.
[0033] In some embodiments, the liquid-receiving insert 3 includes a base plate and a left side plate and a right side plate connected to the upper surface of the base plate. The left side plate and the right side plate are spaced apart in the width direction of the interface and form a flow guide cavity with the base plate. In other words, the liquid-receiving insert 3 is a guide groove structure with side plates, which can reduce the risk of overflow and improve the reliability of the flow transfer.
[0034] Preferably, both the left and right side plates are in contact with the inner wall of the feeding hopper 1.
[0035] In some embodiments, the feed trough can be made of carbon steel or stainless steel, preferably 316L stainless steel.
[0036] In some embodiments, the lower end of the feeding hopper 1 is provided with a soft material receiving part. When the centrifuge is feeding normally, the dry material falls directly into the lower material conveyor along the feeding hopper 1. The soft connecting part 6 at the bottom of the receiving hopper can effectively prevent the dry material from scattering.
[0037] In some embodiments, the liquid receiving plate 3 is provided with a central reinforcing rib.
[0038] In some embodiments, an observation window 9 is provided on the outer wall of the feeding hopper 1 to facilitate observation of the material feeding process.
[0039] In some embodiments, the upper end of the liquid receiving tray 2 is also provided with a rinsing pipe 7. After the liquid receiving tray 2 is emptied of wet material or cleaning liquid, the rinsing pipe 7 can be opened to clean the liquid receiving tray 2 for the next use.
[0040] The feeding device of this utility model includes a centrifuge and a feeding trough as described in the above embodiment, with the outlet of the centrifuge connected to the feeding bucket 1.
[0041] The feeding device of this utility model adopts the above-mentioned feeding trough. The upper end of the feeding barrel 1 is connected to the outlet of the centrifuge, and the outer wall of the feeding barrel 1 is provided with a converter. The liquid receiving tray 2 is installed on one side of the feeding barrel 1 and communicates with the converter. The liquid receiving plate 3 is horizontally arranged in the feeding barrel 1 and is detachable relative to the feeding barrel 1. One end of the liquid receiving plate 3 extends out of the converter and into the liquid receiving tray 2, or one end of the liquid receiving plate 3 is connected to the converter. Thus, by disassembling and assembling the liquid receiving plate 3, the two working conditions of normal feeding of dry materials and transfer of cleaning liquid into the liquid receiving tray 2 can be met. There is no need to frequently move the liquid receiving tray 2. The operation is simple and convenient, saves manpower, and the centrifuge production efficiency is high.
