Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material storage technology, specifically a material storage silo for cement production with anti-accumulation and anti-caking function. Background Technology
[0002] In the cement production process, material silos play a crucial role in storing raw materials such as sandstone. However, current material silos have significant drawbacks; their relatively enclosed internal environment makes them prone to clumping. Clumped materials have reduced flowability, leading not only to accumulation within the silo and obstructed discharge, but also to reduced efficiency in subsequent production stages and increased equipment maintenance costs. Therefore, a material silo with anti-caking capabilities is needed, which is of great significance for ensuring the continuity of cement production, improving product quality, and enhancing the economic benefits of enterprises.
[0003] In the prior art, utility model patent CN202320054790.6 discloses an anti-caking bulk storage bin, including a storage bin. The upper end of the storage bin is fixedly connected to an injection pipe that communicates with its interior. A discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the surface of the storage bin. Both the injection and discharge pipes are fitted with caps. An air guide pipe is fixedly connected inside the storage bin, and an exhaust hole is provided on the air guide pipe. The inner wall of the exhaust hole is arc-shaped. This anti-caking bulk storage bin prevents fertilizer from clumping due to moisture. When the exhaust hole needs to be sealed, simply rotating the sealing pipe allows the sealing rod to re-engage with the elasticity of the return spring, sealing the hole. Ventilation can then be provided inside the storage bin according to actual needs, ensuring airflow and preventing moisture and clumping.
[0004] The anti-caking bulk storage bin provided by the aforementioned patent can also be used to store materials required for cement production, such as sandstone. This anti-caking bulk storage bin can rotate and disperse the materials by setting a rotating pipe. However, when the rotating pipe disperses the materials, it may cause the rotating pipe to only move the materials around it away. The materials far away from the rotating pipe may clump on the bin wall, making it impossible for the rotating pipe to reach them, resulting in poor anti-caking effect, which needs further improvement. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a material silo with anti-agglomeration function for cement production. It aims to improve the existing material silos with anti-agglomeration function by setting a rotating pipe inside the silo to disperse the material. Sometimes the material agglomerates on the silo wall, and the rotating pipe cannot reach these agglomerated materials, resulting in poor anti-agglomeration effect.
[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows: A material silo for cement production with anti-agglomeration and anti-caking function includes a silo body and a vibrating frame. The vibrating frame includes a frame body adapted to be installed inside the silo body. A fixing ring is provided at the upper end of the frame body.

[0009] Preferably, the outer ring side of the manhole door is provided with a threaded groove, and the door cover is threadedly installed on the manhole door through the threaded groove.
[0010] Preferably, the frame is provided with a first ring frame, a first fixing rod and a second ring frame from bottom to top, and the first ring frame and the second ring frame are fixedly connected by the first fixing rod; a plurality of second fixing rods are arranged sequentially on the upper end surface of the second ring frame along its circumferential direction, and the fixing ring is fixedly arranged above the second ring frame by the second fixing rod.
[0011] Preferably, the spring rod includes a connecting spring and a round rod; one end of the connecting spring is connected to the round rod, and the other end is fixedly disposed on the side of the fixed ring.
[0012] Preferably, it also includes an electromagnetic switch valve, and an electromagnetic switch valve is provided at the outlet of the funnel-shaped discharge port.
[0013] Preferably, the spraying device further includes a motor, and the upper end of the bin cover is provided with a motor.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] 1. This utility model uses a rotating spraying device installed on the bin cover to spray the material being placed in. The rotating spraying device drives the vibrating frame to vibrate, thereby causing the material inside the bin to shake. This allows vibration to occur at any location inside the bin, improving the anti-caking effect.
[0017] 2. This utility model, by setting a manual cleaning door, allows operators to easily clean the interior of the silo through the manhole. The manhole is assembled by inserting a baffle and threaded door cover, which makes it easy for operators to disassemble and install, and the operation is simple.
[0018] 3. By setting up a splashing device, this utility model can splash the material being put in, preventing the material from being concentrated in one point, which would result in too strong an impact force at that location, causing the material to compact and clump together.

[0028] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, provides further details:
[0029] Example 1
[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, a material silo for cement production with anti-caking function includes a silo body 1 and a vibrating frame 8. The vibrating frame 8 includes a frame 801, which is fitted and installed inside the silo body 1. A fixing ring 802 is provided at the upper end of the frame 801. From bottom to top, the frame 801 is provided with a first ring frame 805, a first fixing rod 806, and a second ring frame 807. The first ring frame 805 and the second ring frame 807 are fixedly connected by the first fixing rod 806. The frame 801 is positioned in the silo body 1 by the first ring frame 805 and the second ring frame 807, which facilitates the disassembly and installation of the vibrating frame 8. Multiple second fixing rods 808 are arranged sequentially along the circumference of the upper surface of the second ring frame 807. The fixing ring 802 is fixedly installed above the second ring frame 807 by the second fixing rods 808. Multiple spring rods 803 are sequentially arranged along the circumference of the outer surface of the fixed ring 802. Each spring rod 803 includes a connecting spring 809 and a round rod 810. One end of the connecting spring 809 is connected to the round rod 810, and the other end is fixedly disposed on the side of the fixed ring 802. Multiple vibrating rods 804 are sequentially arranged along the circumference of the lower end face. By setting the vibrating rods 804, the vibrating rods 804 can be vibrated by moving them, thereby shaking the material inside the bin 1 and preventing the material from clumping. A funnel-shaped discharge port 3 is provided at the lower end of the bin 1, and an electromagnetic switch valve 4 is also included. The electromagnetic switch valve 4 is provided at the outlet of the funnel-shaped discharge port 3, and a bin cover 5 is installed at the upper end. By setting the funnel-shaped discharge port 3, and the inclination angle of the funnel-shaped discharge port 3 is 45°, it is easy for the material to slide down naturally and reduce material residue.
[0031] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a spraying device 6 is provided on the bin cover 5. The spraying device 6 includes a turntable 602 located inside the bin body 1 and above the vibrating frame 8. The lower end of the turntable 602 is provided with a lever 604 that can strike the spring rod 803. The bin cover 5 is provided with a feed inlet 7 located above the turntable 602. The spraying device 6 also includes a motor 601. The motor 601 is located at the upper end of the bin cover 5. The output shaft of the motor 601 extends through the bin cover 5 into the bin body 1 and connects to the turntable 602. Multiple spraying plates 603 are arranged sequentially along the circumference of the upper surface of the turntable 602. The turntable 602 in the spraying device 6 is located above the fixed ring 802, and can strike the spring rod 803 through the lever 604 as the turntable 602 rotates, thereby causing the spring rod 803 to vibrate and drive the vibrating rod 804 to vibrate. At the same time, the material is fed into the silo 1 through the feed inlet 7 and falls onto the turntable 602. The turntable 602 rotates and causes the material to be scattered into the silo 1, which can prevent the material from concentrating in one place and falling, causing impact and compaction.
[0032] like Figure 2and Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a manual cleaning door 2, which includes a manhole door 201. A manhole door 201 penetrating the interior of the hopper 1 is provided on the outer side of the hopper body 1. A baffle 202 is movably inserted into the manhole door 201, and a slot 204 with an opening at the top is provided on the manhole door 201, in which the baffle 202 is movably inserted. A door cover 203 is installed at the outer end of the manhole door 201, covering the baffle 202. A threaded groove 205 is provided on the outer ring side of the manhole door 201, and the door cover 203 is threaded onto the manhole door 201 through the threaded groove 205. The manual cleaning door 2 allows operators to easily clean the inside of the silo 1, preventing large blockages caused by materials inside. It also facilitates manual cleaning when the vibrating frame 8 is not functioning. A baffle 202 inserted into the manhole 201 allows operators to easily open and close it. By gradually reducing the opening of the manhole 201 with the baffle 202, the resistance to material flow when closing the manhole 201 is reduced, achieving rapid blockage. The door cover 203 then simultaneously seals the manhole 201 and the baffle 202, preventing gaps between them and preventing moisture buildup inside the silo 1.
[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the system also includes a mounting platform 9 and a mounting frame 10. The mounting platform 9 includes a base 902, and a side plate 901 adapted to the outer wall of the compartment 1 is provided on the upper end of the base 902. The mounting platform 9 is fitted onto the outer side of the compartment 1, and a first mounting bolt 903 is provided on the side plate 901, which is then mounted on the side of the compartment 1. A second mounting bolt 904 is provided on the base 902, which is then mounted on the upper surface of the mounting frame 10. The compartment 1 can be easily disassembled and installed via the mounting platform 9, thus allowing the compartment 1 to be supported on the mounting frame 10.

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, a material silo for cement production with anti-caking function includes a silo body 1 and a vibrating frame 8.

The first ring frame 805 and the second ring frame 807 are fixedly connected by the first fixing rod 806. Multiple second fixing rods 808 are provided sequentially along the circumference of the upper surface of the second ring frame 807. The fixing ring 802 is fixedly positioned above the second ring frame 807 by the second fixing rods 808. Multiple spring rods 803 are provided sequentially along the circumference of the outer surface of the fixing ring 802. Each spring rod 803 includes a connecting spring 809 and a round rod 810. One end of the connecting spring 809 is connected to the round rod 810, and the other end is fixedly positioned on the side of the fixing ring 802. Multiple vibrating rods 804 are arranged sequentially along the circumference of the lower end face; a funnel-shaped discharge port 3 is provided at the lower end of the bin body 1, and an electromagnetic switch valve 4 is also included. An electromagnetic switch valve 4 is provided at the outlet of the funnel-shaped discharge port 3, and a bin cover 5 is installed at the upper end.
[0036] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a spraying device 6 is provided on the bin cover 5. The spraying device 6 includes a turntable 602 located inside the bin body 1 and above the vibrating frame 8. The lower end of the turntable 602 is provided with a lever 604 that can strike the spring rod 803. The bin cover 5 is provided with a feed inlet 7 located above the turntable 602. The spraying device 6 also includes a motor 601. The motor 601 is provided at the upper end of the bin cover 5. The output shaft of the motor 601 extends through the bin cover 5 into the bin body 1 and connects to the turntable 602. Multiple spraying plates 603 are arranged sequentially along the circumference of the upper surface of the turntable 602.
[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a manual cleaning door 2, which includes a manhole door 201. A manhole door 201 penetrating the interior of the hopper 1 is provided on the outer side of the hopper body 1. A baffle 202 is movably inserted into the manhole door 201, and a slot 204 with an opening at the top is provided on the manhole door 201, in which the baffle 202 is movably inserted. A door cover 203 is installed at the outer end of the manhole door 201, covering the baffle 202. A threaded groove 205 is provided on the outer ring side of the manhole door 201, and the door cover 203 is threaded onto the manhole door 201 through the threaded groove 205.
[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 7As shown, it also includes a mounting platform 9 and a mounting frame 10; the mounting platform 9 includes a base 902, and the upper end of the base 902 is provided with a side plate 901 that is adapted to the outer wall of the compartment 1; the mounting platform 9 is fitted onto the outer side of the compartment 1, and the side plate 901 is provided with a first mounting bolt 903, and the side plate 901 is installed on the side of the compartment 1 by the first mounting bolt 903; the base 902 is provided with a second mounting bolt 904, and the base 902 is installed on the upper end face of the mounting frame 10 by the second mounting bolt 904.
[0039] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, material is fed into the silo 1 through the feed inlet 7. The material is then dispersed by the turntable 602 and the spraying plate 603 in the spraying device 6 before being scattered inside the silo 1, preventing material from concentrating at one point and causing impact that could lead to compaction and clumping. Furthermore, during the rotation of the turntable 602, it can strike the spring rod 803, thereby causing the vibrating frame 8 to vibrate. Since the frame 801 of the vibrating frame 8 is not fixed to the silo 1, when the vibrating frame 8 vibrates, it also causes the frame 801 to shake, thus causing the material inside the silo 1 to vibrate. The material is in a state of vibration, which not only prevents the formation of voids inside the material, but also keeps the material loosely stored in the silo 1. When needed, it can be taken out through the funnel-shaped discharge port 3 via the electromagnetic switch valve 4. During the removal process, the motor 601 can be turned on to drive the turntable 602 to rotate and the vibrating frame 8 to vibrate, causing the material inside the silo 1 to shake and avoid blockage. When the material inside the silo 1 has been stored for too long and has formed large clumps, the baffle 202 and the door cover 203 on the manhole door 201 can be removed, and the inside of the silo 1 can be cleaned manually.
[0040] In summary, this utility model utilizes a rotating spraying device 6 mounted on the bin cover 5 to spray and deliver materials. The rotating spraying device 6 also causes the vibrating frame 8 to vibrate, thereby causing the materials inside the bin 1 to shake. This ensures vibration of materials at any location within the bin 1, improving the anti-caking effect. The inclusion of a manual cleaning door 201 allows operators to easily clean the inside of the bin 1. The manhole 201, assembled with an inserted baffle 202 and a threaded cover 203, facilitates easy disassembly and installation, simplifying operation. Furthermore, the spraying device 6 prevents materials from being concentrated in one spot, which could result in excessive impact and material compaction at that location.
