Description

An automatic material receiving and feeding mechanism for a silo Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical design and manufacturing technology; more specifically, it relates to an automatic material receiving and feeding mechanism for a silo. Background Technology

[0002] The field of mechanical design and manufacturing technology is mainly dedicated to studying the entire process of various mechanical products from conception, design, analysis, manufacturing to use. It combines advanced design concepts and methods. An automatic material receiving and feeding mechanism for silos is often used in the field of mechanical design and manufacturing technology to automatically collect and transport various materials. It uses belt conveyors to collect materials from designated locations into silos, or to transport materials in silos to the required work locations.

[0003] Currently, existing feeding mechanisms may not be suitable for crushing excessively large materials, potentially leading to blockages inside the hopper and reducing the equipment's practicality. Furthermore, existing feeding mechanisms are often inconvenient for classifying materials of different sizes and separating materials from impurities, requiring manual screening and separation by staff, thus reducing the equipment's efficiency and convenience. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automatic hopper feeding mechanism to solve these problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides an automatic material receiving and feeding mechanism for a silo to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic material receiving and feeding mechanism for a hopper, including an operating table:

[0006] The operating platform is equipped with a conveyor belt, and a feeding plate is fixed to one end of the operating platform. The middle of the feeding plate is inclined. A hopper body is fixed to the top of one end of the operating platform. Motors are installed at both ends of one side of the hopper body, and crushing rollers are fixed to the output ends of the motors. An electric gate valve of model ZH-C is installed at the lower end of the hopper body. A receiving box is attached to the lower end of the feeding plate, and an adjusting plate is engaged and rotated at one end of the receiving box. A limit plate is fixed to the lower end of the adjusting plate. A slidable placing plate is inserted in the middle of the receiving box, and a filter screen is provided in the middle of the placing plate. Bolts are threaded to both ends of the placing plate. A storage box is slidably inserted into the lower end of the receiving box.

[0007] Preferably, the upper end of the hopper body is fixed with a feed inlet, and the feed inlet is conical. The shape design of the feed inlet can speed up the feeding speed of the equipment.

[0008] Preferably, one end of each of the two sets of crushing rollers is engaged and slidably inside the inner wall of the hopper body, and the surfaces of the two sets of crushing rollers mesh with each other. Through the cooperation of the two sets of crushing rollers, the equipment can crush excessively large materials during feeding, thereby improving the practicality of the equipment.

[0009] Preferably, the two end surfaces of one side of the limiting plate are in contact with one end surface of the receiving box. By using the limiting plate, the movement position of the adjusting plate can be restricted.

[0010] Preferably, both ends of the material placement plate are provided with T-shaped blocks, and both ends of the inner wall of the receiving box are provided with sliding grooves, and the surface of the sliding grooves is in contact with the surface of the T-shaped blocks. The use of T-shaped blocks and sliding grooves of the same specification can improve the stability of the material placement plate when it moves.

[0011] Preferably, the lower surface of the adjusting plate is in contact with the upper surface of the material placing plate, and magnets are provided at corresponding positions of the adjusting plate and the material placing plate. When the lower end of the adjusting plate is in contact with the upper surface of the corresponding material placing plate, the position of the adjusting plate can be fixed.

[0012] Preferably, the two sets of bolts are threadedly connected to both sides of one end of the receiving box. By rotating the bolts, the position of the receiving box and the material placement plate can be fixed.

[0013] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: The material enters the hopper body from the inside of the feed inlet. Then, two sets of motors can drive two sets of crushing rollers to rotate synchronously inward. This can crush excessively large materials, allowing them to enter the hopper more smoothly and avoiding equipment blockage caused by excessively large materials. This improves the practicality of the equipment to a certain extent.

[0014] Material enters the receiving box via the feeding plate. The filter screen in the middle of the feeding plate removes impurities and small-sized materials from the receiving box, moving them to the storage box. After feeding, the adjusting plate can be rotated counter-clockwise to move the limiting plate to the upper surface of the receiving box, allowing it to contact the surface. This restricts the position of the adjusting plate. Then, the bolts are turned to move the feeding plate outwards, allowing the crushed material to be stored in a suitable location. The storage box can then be pulled out to remove impurities and small-sized materials. These operations improve the efficiency and convenience of the equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following embodiments are merely illustrative. The mechanical design and manufacturing involved in this utility model are not limited to the structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, this embodiment proposes an automatic material receiving and feeding mechanism for a silo, including an operating platform 1. A conveyor belt 2 is installed inside the operating platform 1, and a feeding plate 3 is fixed to one end of the operating platform 1. The middle position of the feeding plate 3 is inclined. A silo body 4 is fixed to the top of one end of the operating platform 1. Motors 6 are installed at both ends of one side of the silo body 4, and crushing rollers 7 are fixed to the output end of the motors 6. An electric gate valve 8 is installed at the lower end of the silo body 4. The electric gate valve 8 is model Z941H-16C. A feed inlet 5 is fixed to the upper end of the silo body 4. The feed inlet 5 is conical. One end of two sets of crushing rollers 7 is engaged and slid inside the inner wall of the silo body 4, and the surfaces of the two sets of crushing rollers 7 mesh with each other.

[0023] In this embodiment, the material can be moved by starting the conveyor belt 2, and the material can be moved into the receiving box 9 by the cooperation of the feeding plate 3. The material can be poured into the hopper body 4 by the feeding port 5. Then, the two sets of motors 6 can be started to drive the two sets of crushing rollers 7 to mesh inward synchronously, thereby crushing the material that is too large. According to the above operation, the equipment can be prevented from being blocked by the material that is too large, thereby improving the service life of the equipment. By starting the electric gate valve 8, the crushed material can be moved to the upper end of the conveyor belt 2 for feeding.

[0024] Example 2

[0025] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, based on the same concept as the above embodiments, this embodiment also proposes: a receiving box 9 is attached to the lower end of the feeding plate 3, and an adjusting plate 10 is engaged and rotated at one end of the receiving box 9. A limiting plate 11 is fixed at the lower end of the adjusting plate 10. A slidable placing plate 12 is inserted into the middle position of the receiving box 9, and a filter screen is provided at the middle position of the placing plate 12. Bolts 13 are threaded to both ends of the placing plate 12. A storage box 14 is slidably inserted into the lower end of the receiving box 9. The two ends of one side of the limiting plate 11 are attached to the surface of one end of the receiving box 9. T-shaped blocks are provided at both ends of the placing plate 12. Sliding grooves are opened at both ends of the inner wall of the receiving box 9, and the surface of the sliding grooves is attached to the surface of the T-shaped blocks. The lower end surface of the adjusting plate 10 is attached to the upper end surface of the placing plate 12, and magnets are provided at the corresponding positions of the adjusting plate 10 and the placing plate 12. Two sets of bolts 13 are threaded to both sides of one end of the receiving box 9.

[0026] In this embodiment, the material can be temporarily stored by placing the receiving box 9. When the material is in contact with the upper surface of the placing plate 12, the material and impurities that are too small are processed inside the filter paper storage box 14 by the cooperation of the filter screen. The cooperation of the slide and the T-block makes the moving of the placing plate 12 more stable. When the position of the magnet at the lower end of the adjusting plate 10 corresponds to the position of the magnet at the upper end of the placing plate 12, the position of the adjusting plate 10 can be restricted and fixed. The material is moved out of the receiving box 9 and the placing plate 12 by rotating the bolt 13. Then the placing plate 12 is moved out of the receiving box 9. Finally, the material can be stored in a suitable position.

[0027] Working principle: When the equipment is in use, the material first enters the hopper body 4 from the inside of the feed inlet 5. Then, two sets of motors 6 drive two sets of crushing rollers 7 to rotate synchronously inward, thereby crushing oversized materials. Next, the electric gate valve 8 is activated to allow the processed material to fall onto the upper surface of the conveyor belt 2. Subsequently, the conveyor belt 2 moves the material to the position of the discharge plate 3, and according to the shape design of the discharge plate 3, the material falls into the inside of the receiving box 9. At this time, with the help of the filter screen, impurities or materials that are too small can be moved into the collection box 14. Then, the adjustment is rotated counterclockwise. Section plate 10 drives limit plate 11 to rotate to the upper surface of receiving box 9 and place it there. Then, rotate bolt 13 to make it separate from the inside of receiving box 9 and placing plate 12, and then move placing plate 12 outward. At the same time, the crushed material can be moved to a suitable position for storage. Then, pull out the storage box 14 to process the impurities or oversized materials inside. The motor 6 used in this application is a product that can be purchased directly on the market. Its principle, connection method and control method are all existing technologies known to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail here. The above is the complete working principle of this utility model.

[0028] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections.
