Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refractory material production technology, and more specifically, to an automatic feeding system for refractory materials. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of processing and producing refractory materials, it is necessary to add and mix a variety of different materials. This requires the use of a batching device to take different materials to form refractory materials.
[0003] After searching, it was found that application number CN202311798982.9, entitled "A Batching Device and System for Refractory Materials," describes an application that uses an automatic feeding mechanism and a discharging mechanism. When the control electric slide rail moves the batching box to the front of a set of storage boxes, the design of the convex arc plate and inclined plate causes the discharging box to move outward automatically, opening the bottom sealing plate to achieve automatic discharging. However, in actual use, the raw materials enter the batching box in layers, making pre-mixing impossible during the conveying process. The subsequent mixing work is stressful, affecting production efficiency. Further improvements are needed.
[0004] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

[0006] To achieve the aforementioned advantages of improved work efficiency, the specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0007] An automatic feeding system for refractory materials includes a base plate and a top hopper. The top hopper is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate, and a first material box, a second material box, a third material box, and a fourth material box are fixedly connected through the top surface of the top hopper. A belt scale is fixedly installed inside the top hopper on the top surface of the base plate. A rotating rod is rotatably connected inside the top hopper, and a stirring rod is fixedly installed on the surface of the rotating rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the first, second, third, and fourth material boxes are distributed at equal intervals from left to right, and the first, second, third, and fourth material boxes have the same structure.
[0009] Furthermore, the top surfaces of the first, second, third, and fourth material boxes are all provided with material inlets.
[0010] Furthermore, the edge of the auger blade slides against the inner wall of the discharge channel.
[0011] Furthermore, multiple sets of rotating rods are arranged, and the rotating rods are rotatably connected to the top compartment via bearings.
[0012] Furthermore, multiple sets of stirring rods are arranged at equal angles along the central axis of the rotating rod, and multiple sets of stirring rods are arranged at equal intervals along the length direction of the rotating rod.
[0013] Furthermore, the belt scale is electrically connected to a servo motor via a weighing controller.
[0014] Furthermore, the other end of the belt scale extends into a top compartment and a base plate.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an automatic feeding system for refractory materials, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] (1) This utility model adopts a rotating rod and a stirring rod. When feeding refractory materials, the first, second, third and fourth material boxes contain different types of refractory raw materials. The rotating shaft is driven by a servo motor to rotate and drive the auger blades to rotate, and the raw materials are put onto the top surface of the belt scale. Then, the drive motor drives the rotating rod to rotate and drive the stirring rod to rotate, and pre-mix the raw materials.

[0017] (2) This utility model uses a belt scale and a servo motor. When feeding and weighing, the first material box is fed first. The belt scale weighs the amount of raw materials inside the first material box. After the set weight is reached, the servo motor on the top of the first material box stops. Then, the second, third and fourth material boxes are fed in sequence.

These drawings are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments.

The components in the figures are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are usually used to represent similar components.
[0026] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an automatic feeding system for refractory materials is provided.
[0027] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, such as... Figure 1-3As shown, an automatic refractory material feeding system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base plate 1 and a top bin 2. The top bin 2 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate 1, and a first material box 4, a second material box 5, a third material box 6, and a fourth material box 7 are fixedly connected through the top surface of the top bin 2. A belt scale 3, a common weighing structure, is fixedly installed inside the top bin 2. A rotating rod 11 is rotatably connected inside the top bin 2, and a stirring rod 12 is fixedly installed on the surface of the rotating rod 11. A drive motor 13 is fixedly installed on the front surface of the top bin 2, and the output end of the drive motor 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod 11. A servo motor 8 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the first material box 4, and a rotating shaft 10 is fixedly installed on the output end of the servo motor 8. A discharge channel 14 is connected through the bottom surface of the first material box 4, and the rotating shaft 10 extends into the discharge channel 14. An auger blade 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom outer surface of the rotating shaft 10. During refractory material feeding, the first hopper 4, second hopper 5, third hopper 6, and fourth hopper 7 contain different types of refractory raw materials. A servo motor 8 drives a rotating shaft 10, which in turn rotates the auger blades 15, feeding the raw materials onto the top surface of the belt scale 3. Subsequently, a drive motor 13 drives a rotating rod 11, which in turn rotates a stirring rod 12, pre-mixing the raw materials. This initial mixing during feeding reduces subsequent mixing time and improves work efficiency. Simultaneously, during weighing, the first hopper 4 is fed first, and the belt scale 3 weighs the amount of raw material inside. Once the set weight is reached, the servo motor 8 on the top surface of the first hopper 4 stops. Then, the second hopper 5, third hopper 6, and fourth hopper 7 are fed sequentially. The belt scale 3 serves both conveying and quantitative weighing functions, improving the accuracy of material feeding and increasing work efficiency.
[0028] In one embodiment, the first material box 4, the second material box 5, the third material box 6, and the fourth material box 7 are distributed at equal intervals from left to right, and the first material box 4, the second material box 5, the third material box 6, and the fourth material box 7 have the same structure, with the bottom of the first material box 4, the second material box 5, the third material box 6, and the fourth material box 7 all having a funnel-shaped structure.
[0029] In one embodiment, the top surfaces of the first material bin 4, the second material bin 5, the third material bin 6, and the fourth material bin 7 are all provided with inlets 9 for easy replenishment of materials.
[0030] In one embodiment, the edge of the auger blade 15 slides against the inner wall of the discharge channel 14, and when the auger blade 15 is not rotating, raw material leakage is avoided.
[0031] In one embodiment, multiple sets of rotating rods 11 are arranged, and the rotating rods 11 are rotatably connected to the top chamber 2 via bearings to stabilize the rotation of the rotating rods 11.
[0032] In one embodiment, multiple sets of stirring rods 12 are arranged at equal angles along the central axis of the rotating rod 11, and multiple sets of stirring rods 12 are arranged at equal intervals along the length direction of the rotating rod 11, thereby improving stirring efficiency.
[0033] In one embodiment, the belt scale 3 is electrically connected to the servo motor 8 via a weighing controller, which is a common weighing control system and will not be described in detail here.
[0034] In one embodiment, the other end of the belt scale 3 extends to the top chamber 2 and the base plate 1. The base plate 1 is installed above the raw material inlet of the refractory material mixing equipment, and the other end of the belt scale 3 extends directly above the raw material inlet of the refractory material mixing equipment.
[0035] Working principle:
[0036] During refractory material feeding, the first hopper 4, the second hopper 5, the third hopper 6, and the fourth hopper 7 contain different types of refractory raw materials. A servo motor 8 drives the rotating shaft 10 to rotate, which in turn drives the auger blades 15 to rotate, feeding the raw materials onto the top surface of the belt scale 3. Subsequently, the drive motor 13 drives the rotating rod 11 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring rod 12 to rotate, pre-mixing the raw materials. This initial mixing is completed during the feeding process, reducing the later mixing time and improving work efficiency. Simultaneously, during weighing, the first hopper 4 is fed first, and the belt scale 3 weighs the amount of raw materials inside. Once the set weight is reached, the servo motor 8 on the top surface of the first hopper 4 stops. Then, the second hopper 5, the third hopper 6, and the fourth hopper 7 are fed sequentially. The belt scale 3 plays a role in conveying and quantitative weighing, improving the accuracy of material feeding and increasing work efficiency.
