Its main function is to achieve uniform feeding during the process of conveying raw materials to the coal mill and effectively prevent air leakage within the system, thus ensuring production efficiency and safety.
[0003] Existing coal mill feeding airlock devices have many problems in practical applications. Regarding feeding, most devices struggle to achieve uniform and stable feeding, leading to uneven raw material distribution inside the coal mill, affecting grinding efficiency and product quality. As for the airlock function, existing devices typically employ only a single airlock structure, resulting in poor airlock performance, easily causing unstable air pressure within the system, increasing energy consumption, and even affecting the normal operation of the entire production line. To solve these problems, this application proposes a rotor-type coal mill feeding airlock device. Utility Model Content

The device uses a motor to drive the transmission rod, which drives the rotating roller, the dividing plate and the sealing plate to rotate at a uniform speed, so as to accurately control the uniform feeding of coal raw materials. The first airlock is achieved by rotating the dividing plate and the sealing plate, and the second airlock is achieved by using the airlock plate, the baffle and the torsion spring. The multiple airlock design completes the second airlock.

[0014] 2. The design employs a multi-layered airlock system, which uses a rotating partition plate and sealing plate to achieve the first airlock, and then utilizes an airlock plate, baffle, and torsion spring to complete the second airlock.

[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 1-2 A rotor-type coal mill feeding airlock device includes a housing 1, which serves as the main body of the entire device and provides installation and operating space for other components. A coal feed hopper 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the housing 1. The coal feed hopper 2 is used to guide external coal raw materials into the housing 1. A motor 3 is fixedly connected to the front of the housing 1. A transmission rod 4 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3. The transmission rod 4 passes through the housing 1 and is rotatably connected to it. A rotating roller 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission rod 4. Multiple dividing plates 6 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating roller 5. The multiple dividing plates 6 are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the rotating roller 5. The rotation of the dividing plates 6 divides the space inside the housing, realizing feeding control and initial airlock.
[0025] Each partition plate 6 has a sealing plate 7 installed at its end. The sealing plate 7 fits into the inner wall of the box. The end of the sealing plate 7 near the inner wall of the box 1 has a sealing element to enhance the sealing of the partition and ensure the airtight effect. Each partition plate 6 has a disassembly and assembly mechanism with its corresponding sealing plate 7. The disassembly and assembly mechanism includes a mounting plate 15 fixedly connected to the end of the partition plate 6. Two locking bolts 16 are installed on the mounting plate 15. Both locking bolts 16 are threaded to the sealing plate 7. The sealing plate 7 and the mounting plate 15 are detachably connected by the locking bolts 16. The mounting plate 15 has a through hole through which the locking bolts 16 pass. The sealing plate 7 has a threaded groove. The outer wall of the locking bolt 16 and the inner wall of the threaded groove have matching external threads and internal threads, respectively. The fastening connection is achieved by the threaded engagement.
[0026] A maintenance port is provided through the back of the housing 1, providing a passage for internal maintenance of the device. The locking bolts 16 can be installed and removed, and the sealing plate 7 can be replaced. A rotating plate 13 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the maintenance port. The rotating plate 13 can rotate around the inner wall of the maintenance port to open and close the maintenance port. A U-shaped handle 14 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating plate 13. The outer wall of the U-shaped handle 14 is covered with a rubber protective sleeve, which increases grip comfort and friction for easy operation.
[0027] Two rotating shafts 10 are rotatably connected to the housing 1. Each rotating shaft 10 has an air-locking plate 8 fixedly connected to its outer wall. The air-locking plate 8 rotates under the support of the rotating shaft 10, thereby dividing and locking the space inside the housing 1. Two baffles 9 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 1. The baffles 9 limit the rotation angle of the air-locking plate 8, ensuring that the air-locking plate 8 performs air-locking operations in the appropriate position. Each rotating shaft 10 is equipped with a reset mechanism, which includes two grooves 11 formed inside the housing 1. The two ends of the rotating shaft 10 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the corresponding groove 11. Torsion springs 12 are sleeved on the outer walls of both ends of the rotating shaft 10. The two ends of each torsion spring 12 are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 10 and the inner wall of the groove 11, respectively. The torsion springs 12 provide reset power for the rotating shaft 10 and the air-locking plate 8, so that they automatically reset after feeding, thereby achieving continuous air-locking.
[0028] In this invention, external coal raw materials are injected into the housing 1 through the coal feed hopper 2. The motor 3 is started, and the output end of the motor 3 drives the transmission rod 4, the rotating roller 5, multiple dividing plates 6, and the sealing plate 7 to rotate. The uniform rotation of the multiple dividing plates 6 and the sealing plate 7 can feed the coal raw materials evenly, and the rotation of the multiple dividing plates 6 can divide the upper and lower areas of the rotating roller 5, realizing the first air-locking operation. Subsequently, the falling coal raw materials come into contact with the air-locking plate 8, causing the air-locking plate 8 to rotate and open. During this process, the torsion spring 12 is tightened. When the coal falls, the tightened torsion spring 12 resets the two air-locking plates 8, and the two baffles 9 limit the air-locking plates 8 and the ends of the two air-locking plates 8 abut against each other, completing the division of the upper and lower areas of the air-locking plate 8, and the air-locking operation can be performed again.
