Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of ceramic blank drying chambers, specifically to a suspended circulating cyclone cone. Background Technology
[0002] The ceramic green body drying cyclone cone (air distributor) is a key component in the ceramic production drying process. It plays an important role in ensuring the uniformity of green body drying, improving drying efficiency and product quality.
[0003] To save installation space for the billet drying air distributor, most existing technologies adopt an integrated circulating air distributor installation structure, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 1 The diagram shows a schematic of an existing integrated circulating cyclone cone (refer to patent number CN215447344U, patent name "Integrated Circulating Air Distributor"). The inverted conical air distributor is driven to rotate by a bottom drive device. This rotation causes multiple air outlets on the distributor to rotate, ensuring consistent airflow at each outlet. However, during the mass installation of this existing integrated circulating air distributor in a drying chamber, the inability to adjust the height of the cyclone cone frame prevents uniformity in height across the large drying area, resulting in uneven cyclone flow. This, in turn, affects the temperature uniformity within the drying chamber, ultimately impacting product drying quality. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the defects existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a suspended circulating cyclone cone to solve the problem that the existing integrated circulating air distributor cannot be installed at an adjustable height in the drying room, which leads to uneven cyclone distribution when large-scale installation cannot guarantee height uniformity.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] This application provides a suspended circulating cyclone cone, including a cyclone cone body, a drive motor, and an axial flow fan. The drive motor is installed at the bottom end of the cyclone cone body, and the axial flow fan is installed above the cyclone cone body via a fan mounting plate. It also includes a suspension mounting frame and an adjustable screw bracket. The suspension mounting frame is fixedly installed on the outside of the axial flow fan, and the adjustable screw bracket is installed at the bottom end of the drive motor. The adjustable screw bracket is used to adjust the installation height of the drive motor.
[0007] Furthermore, the adjustable lead screw bracket includes a pair of lead screws, a crossbeam, a support plate, and a locking nut. The crossbeam is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the drive motor. The pair of lead screws are symmetrically and vertically rotated at opposite ends of the crossbeam. The support plate is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the lead screws. The lead screws are fixedly installed on the crossbeam by the pair of locking nuts.
[0008] Furthermore, it also includes an outer protective fence, which includes a circular protective fence body and multiple legs spaced apart and installed at the bottom end face of the protective fence body. The protective fence body is located on the outer periphery of the bottom end of the cyclone cone body.
[0009] Furthermore, it also includes an external grease nipple and an oil pipe. The grease nipple is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the fan mounting plate. The external grease nipple is connected to an internal bearing installed at the top of the cyclone cone body through an oil pipe. The grease nipple is used to add lubricating oil to the internal bearing.
[0010] Furthermore, the cyclone cone body comprises a cone-shaped structure formed by bending and assembling a planar plate on multiple sides.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] By adopting a hoisting method, the top is directly installed and fixed to the frame of the drying chamber, and the bottom drive motor of the cyclone cone is installed and fixed on an adjustable screw bracket with a wide range of adjustment. The screw adjustment compensates for uneven ground, thereby ensuring that batches of cyclone cones installed in the same drying chamber are at the same height, achieving more uniform cyclone swirling and thus achieving temperature uniformity within the drying chamber.

[0031] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0032] See appendix Figures 1 to 3 and attached Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a suspended circulating cyclone cone 100, including a cyclone cone body 10, a drive motor 50, an axial flow fan 20, a suspended mounting frame 40, and an adjustable screw support 60.
[0033] See attached document Figure 1 Appendix Figure 3 and attached Figure 5 As shown, the axial flow fan 20 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the cyclone cone body 10 by the fan mounting plate 30. The installation structure of the axial flow fan 20 on the cyclone cone body 10 is existing technology and will not be described again here.
[0034] See attached document Figure 1 and attached Figure 3 As shown, there is a pair of hoisting mounting frames 40, which are arranged symmetrically from left to right. The pair of hoisting mounting frames 40 have the same length. The bottom end of the hoisting mounting frame 40 is fixedly installed on the fan mounting plate 30, and the top end of the hoisting mounting frame 40 is used to be fixedly connected to the frame of the billet drying room.
[0035] See attached document Figure 1 To be continued Figure 3 As shown, the adjustable lead screw bracket 60 is installed at the bottom of the drive motor 50, and the adjustable lead screw bracket 60 is used to adjust the installation height of the drive motor 50.
[0036] In this solution, when the suspended circulating cyclone cone 100 is installed in the billet drying chamber, the upper end of the suspended circulating cyclone cone 100 is fixedly installed on the frame of the drying chamber via a hoisting mounting frame 40. Since the length of the hoisting mounting frame 40 is constant, the installation height of a large number of suspended circulating cyclone cones 100 installed in the same billet drying chamber can be kept consistent. The bottom drive motor 50 of the cyclone cone body is mounted on an adjustable screw bracket 60. For possible uneven ground at different locations in the billet drying chamber, the installation height of the drive motor 50 can be raised or lowered by adjusting the adjustable screw bracket 60 to ensure that the installation height of the drive motor 50 on the large number of suspended circulating cyclone cones 100 remains consistent. In this way, each air outlet 11 on the cyclone cone body 10 can be kept at the same height, achieving more uniform cyclone flow and thus achieving temperature uniformity in the drying chamber.
[0037] See attached document Figure 2 As shown, specifically in this embodiment, the adjustable lead screw bracket 60 includes a pair of lead screws 62, a crossbeam 61, a support plate 63, and locking nuts 64. The crossbeam 61 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the drive motor 50, and mounting holes are provided at opposite ends of the crossbeam 61. The pair of lead screws 62 are symmetrically and vertically rotated and installed in the mounting holes of the crossbeam 61. The support plate 63 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the lead screws 62 and is used to contact the ground. There is a pair of locking nuts 64, which are respectively fitted onto the outer circumferential surface of the lead screws 62. When locked, the pair of locking nuts 64 are respectively locked and fitted against the upper and lower end surfaces of the crossbeam 61, fixing the lead screws 62 onto the crossbeam 61.
[0038] To better understand the adjustment principle of the adjustable lead screw bracket 60 in this embodiment, its adjustment principle is explained below:
[0039] When installing the suspended circulating cyclone cone 100, first place a pad under the crossbeam 61. The pad provides downward support for the crossbeam 61. It can be understood that the height of the pad is the same as the preset installation height of the crossbeam 61. Insert the lead screw 62 into both ends of the crossbeam 61. After ensuring that the support plate 63 at the bottom of the lead screw 62 is in stable contact with the ground, tighten the pair of locking nuts 64 on the lead screw 62 to lock and fix the lead screw 62 to the crossbeam 61. Then remove the pad, and the installation of the adjustable lead screw bracket 60 at the bottom of the drive motor 50 is completed.
[0040] See attached document Figure 1 and attached Figure 4As shown in this embodiment, an outer protective railing 70 is also provided at the bottom of the cyclone cone body 10. The outer protective railing 70 is separate from the cyclone cone and does not contact it, thus protecting the cyclone cone. Even if a collision occurs, it will only collide with the protective railing and will not affect the cyclone cone, thus preventing any safety hazards.
[0041] See attached document Figure 4 As shown, specifically, in this embodiment, the outer guardrail 70 includes a circular guardrail body 71 and a plurality of legs 72 spaced apart and installed at the bottom end of the guardrail body 71. The guardrail body 71 is located on the outer periphery of the bottom end of the cyclone cone body 10, and the legs 72 are used to contact the ground to provide support.
[0042] See attached document Figure 3 Appendix Figure 6 and attached Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, an oil inlet 91 is also installed on the outer wall of the fan mounting plate 30. The oil inlet 91 is connected to the internal bearing 80 installed at the top of the cyclone cone body 10 via an oil pipe 92. The oil inlet 91 is used to add lubricating oil to the internal bearing 80. The oil inlet 91 is led to the outside via an extended oil pipe 92, which allows for convenient and regular lubrication to be added for lubrication and maintenance. This eliminates the need to disassemble parts to add lubricating oil, making maintenance work faster and more efficient.
[0043] See attached document Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the cyclone cone body 10 includes a cone-shaped structure assembled from multiple bends of a flat plate, that is, a cone-shaped structure with a larger opening at the top and a smaller opening at the bottom. By changing the arc-shaped cyclone cone to a bent flat surface, the wind will fall downwards along the bends, avoiding lateral flow, reducing turbulence and wind resistance, and reducing the power of the axial flow fan 20; the energy loss can be significantly reduced during long-term operation of the drying chamber.
[0044] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
