[0004] However, the ceramic blank preparation device in the aforementioned published literature mainly considers the advantages of convenient processing of blanks by users, saving manpower and strong stability, and optimizing the use process, but it is not convenient to remove the foam that appears when the raw materials are stirred.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a defoaming mechanism to remove foam that occurs during raw material mixing. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a ceramic blank preparation device to solve the technical problem mentioned in the background art of enabling the ceramic blank preparation device to have a defoaming function.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a ceramic blank preparation device, comprising: a device base, a stirring cylinder mounted on the top of the device base, and a defoaming mechanism provided on the outer wall of the stirring cylinder, the defoaming mechanism being used to remove foam that appears during the stirring of raw materials;
[0008] The defoaming mechanism includes a slide rod disposed on the inner wall of the mixing drum. A float is mounted around the outer wall of the slide rod, and a contact block is mounted on the outer wall of the float. A positioning plate is fixedly mounted around the outer wall of the slide rod. An adsorption pump is mounted on the outer wall of the mixing drum. An adsorption pipe is mounted at the inlet end of the adsorption pump, and an anti-clogging mesh is mounted at the bottom of the adsorption pipe. A waterproof alarm button is mounted at the bottom of the positioning plate.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] 1. This utility model removes foam that appears during raw material mixing by installing a defoaming mechanism. Existing mixing drums produce foam during raw material mixing, which is difficult to eliminate. Therefore, this needs to be improved. First, when adding raw materials, the float moves with the horizontal line inside the mixing drum. When the float touches the waterproof alarm button, the alarm light illuminates, indicating that the water level line of the mixing drum has been reached and the adsorption tube is at the top of the horizontal line. Then, the adsorption pump works to extract the foam at the horizontal line through the adsorption tube and discharge it through the discharge pipe, thereby removing the foam inside the mixing drum and avoiding foam accumulation when discharging materials.
[0017] 2. This utility model uses a processing mechanism to treat the adsorbed foam. However, during the extraction of the foam, it is impossible to remove the foam completely, resulting in the foam mixing with some liquid. Therefore, this needs to be improved. First, the foam is sucked out through the discharge pipe and enters the receiving tank through the collection tank. Then, the solenoid valve in the drain tank operates to make the drain tank flow, allowing the ceramic defoamer in the medicine storage tank to enter the receiving tank to eliminate the bubbles. After the bubbles are eliminated, the liquid is discharged through the recovery tank by opening the sealing plate through the hinge. The liquid addition tank is used to add medicine, thus enabling the liquid after bubble elimination to be processed and reused, avoiding the waste of raw materials. Attached Figure Description

[0026] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A ceramic blank preparation device includes: a device base 1, a stirring drum 2 mounted on the top of the device base 1, a feeding trough 3 on the top of the stirring drum 2, a mixing motor 4 mounted on the top of the stirring drum 2, a mixing shaft 5 mounted on the output end of the mixing motor 4, a discharge end 6 on the outer wall of the stirring drum 2, an inspection door 7 on the outer wall of the stirring drum 2, and a control box 8 mounted on the top of the device base 1. Raw materials are added to the stirring drum 2 through the feeding trough 3, the mixing motor 4 drives the mixing shaft 5 to rotate and mix the raw materials, and then the discharge end 6 discharges the mixed material.
[0027] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3The outer wall of the mixing drum 2 is equipped with a defoaming mechanism to remove foam that appears during the mixing of raw materials. The defoaming mechanism includes a slide rod 9, which is disposed on the inner wall of the mixing drum 2. A float 10 is installed around the outer wall of the slide rod 9, and a contact block 11 is installed on the outer wall of the float 10. A positioning plate 12 is fixedly installed around the outer wall of the slide rod 9. An adsorption pump 13 is installed on the outer wall of the mixing drum 2. An adsorption pipe 14 is installed at the inlet end of the adsorption pump 13. An anti-clogging net 15 is installed at the bottom of the adsorption pipe 14. A waterproof alarm button 16 is installed at the bottom of the positioning plate 12. An alarm light 17 is installed on the outer wall of the mixing drum 2. A discharge port is installed at the outlet end of the adsorption pump 13. The existing mixing drum 2 produces foam when mixing raw materials, which is difficult to eliminate. Therefore, it needs to be improved. First, when adding raw materials, the float 10 moves with the horizontal line inside the mixing drum 2. When the touch block 11 touches the waterproof alarm button 16, the alarm light 17 lights up, indicating that the water level line of the mixing drum 2 has been reached and the adsorption pipe 14 is at the top of the horizontal line. Then the adsorption pump 13 works to draw out the foam at the horizontal line through the adsorption pipe 14 and discharge it through the discharge pipe 18, thereby clearing the foam inside the mixing drum 2 and avoiding foam accumulation when discharging materials.
[0028] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The outer wall of the stirring drum 2 is equipped with a processing mechanism for processing the adsorbed foam. The processing mechanism includes a receiving tank 19, which is disposed on the outer wall of the stirring drum 2. The top of the receiving tank 19 is equipped with a collection trough 20, and a medicine storage tank 21 is installed on the top of the receiving tank 19. The top of the medicine storage tank 21 is equipped with a liquid addition trough 22, and the inner wall of the liquid addition trough 22 is equipped with a sealing piston 23. The inner wall of the medicine storage tank 21 is equipped with a drain trough 24, and one end of the drain trough 24 extends into the interior of the medicine storage tank 21. A solenoid valve 25 is installed on the inner wall of the drain trough 24. The bottom of the medicine storage tank 21 is equipped with a recovery trough 26, and a hinge 27 is installed on the outer wall of the medicine storage tank 21. The outer wall of the container 7 is equipped with a sealing plate 28. When the foam is extracted, it cannot be removed, causing the foam and some liquid to mix together. Therefore, this needs to be improved. First, the foam is sucked out through the discharge pipe 18 and enters the receiving tank 19 through the collection tank 20. Then, the solenoid valve 25 in the drain tank 24 is activated to make the drain tank 24 flow. The ceramic defoamer in the medicine storage tank 21 enters the receiving tank 19 to eliminate the bubbles. After the bubbles are eliminated, the liquid is discharged through the recovery tank 26 by opening the sealing plate 28 through the hinge 27. The liquid addition tank 22 is used to add medicine, so that the liquid after the bubbles are eliminated can be processed and reused, avoiding the waste of raw materials.
[0029] Working principle: Raw materials are added to the mixing drum 2 through the feed trough 3. The mixing motor 4 drives the mixing shaft 5 to rotate and mix the raw materials. Then, the discharge end 6 discharges the mixed material. Existing mixing drum 2 produces foam when mixing raw materials, which is difficult to eliminate. Therefore, this needs to be improved. First, when adding raw materials, the float 10 moves with the horizontal line inside the mixing drum 2. When the touch block 11 touches the waterproof alarm button 16, the alarm light 17 illuminates, indicating that the water level line of the mixing drum 2 has been reached and the adsorption pipe 14 is at the top of the horizontal line. Then, the adsorption pump 13 operates to extract the foam at the horizontal line through the adsorption pipe 14 and discharge it through the discharge pipe 18, thereby improving the mixing process. The foam inside the mixing drum 2 is removed to prevent foam accumulation during material discharge. However, when extracting the foam, it cannot be completely removed, causing the foam to mix with some of the liquid. Therefore, this needs to be improved. First, the foam is sucked out through the discharge pipe 18 and enters the receiving tank 19 through the collection tank 20. Then, the solenoid valve 25 in the drain tank 24 operates to allow the drain tank 24 to flow, allowing the ceramic defoamer in the liquid storage tank 21 to enter the receiving tank 19 to eliminate the bubbles. After the bubbles are eliminated, the liquid is discharged through the recovery tank 26 by opening the sealing plate 28 through the hinge 27. The liquid addition tank 22 is used to add more liquid, thus enabling the liquid after bubble elimination to be processed and reused, avoiding waste of raw materials.
