[0031] The vibrating assembly 5 includes an outer sleeve 51, an inner sleeve rod 52, a spring 53, a connecting plate 54, and a cam 55. There are two sets of outer sleeves 51, which are located on the top of the outer shell 1 away from the cotton mixing chamber 21. The inner sleeve rod 52 is sleeved on the inner side of the two sets of outer sleeves 51. The spring 53 is provided at the top of the two sets of inner sleeve rods 52.

[0032] Working principle: When the device is processing cotton blending, raw cotton and chemical fibers can be added into the conveying cylinder 31 through the feed hopper 32. The feed air pump 33 is started, which can drive the fiber raw materials in the conveying cylinder 31 through airflow. The fiber raw materials can enter the cotton blending bin 21 through three sets of feed pipes 34. At this time, the drive component 25 is started to control the rotating drum 22 to rotate. The rotating drum 22 can drive the cotton opening knife 23 to rotate, which cooperates with the cotton removal knife 24 on the inside of the cotton blending bin 21 to comb and mix the fiber raw materials to improve the fiber quality.

[0033] The mixed fibers fall onto the screen plate 37 and can slide to one side of its inclined surface to be discharged outward from the discharge port 6. At the same time, when the rotating drum 22 rotates, it can drive the vibrating material assembly 5 to rotate. The vibrating material assembly 5 can intermittently push the connecting plate 54 to overcome the elastic force of the spring 53 and move it upward. Then, the elastic force of the spring 53 and gravity are used to push the connecting plate 54 to reset, so that the connecting plate 54 can drive the movable block 36 to shake up and down. The shaking force can promote the discharge of fibers and shake off impurities in the fibers.

[0034] After impurities in the fibers are filtered by the sieve plate 37, they fall onto the guide plate and are guided to one side. At this time, the dust pump 44 is started. The airflow through the dust pump 44 promotes the flow of impurities into the filter chamber 41 through the guide pipe. The impurities are filtered into the filter chamber 41 by the filter screen 42 and fall into the dust collection box 43 for collection. The exhaust can be started by guiding the flow into the rotating drum 22 and then discharged outward through the exhaust port 46. This blows away the fibers and impurities adhering to the outside of the rotating drum 22, thereby achieving a self-cleaning effect.

[0035] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
