Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0023] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention discloses a color powder addition mechanism for the production of colored asphalt, comprising a powder tank 1, a top cover 2 on the top of the powder tank 1, a discharge pipe 3 at the bottom of the powder tank 1, the powder tank 1 being connected to a moving component 5 via a transmission block 4, a material feeding component 6 above the discharge pipe 3, a feeding pipe 7 on the top cover 2, and a control box 8 mounted on the moving component 5; the moving component 5 includes a mounting frame 51, a transmission screw 52 installed inside the mounting frame 51, one end of the transmission screw 52 being connected to a drive motor 53, the transmission screw 52 being threadedly connected to the transmission block 4, a limiting slide rod 54 slidably connected to the transmission block 4 on one side of the transmission screw 52, ​​and a control valve on the discharge pipe 3.

[0024] In the technical solution of this utility model, the powder tank 1 can store color powder, and the feeding pipe 7 on the top cover 2 can be used to replenish the color powder in the tank. The discharge pipe 3 is moved to the feeding port of the colored asphalt production mixing equipment by the moving component 5, so that the color powder in the powder tank 1 can be directionally conveyed through the discharge pipe 3. By controlling the operation of the drive motor 53, the transmission screw 52 can be rotated, and then the powder tank 1 can be moved horizontally through the transmission block 4. The position of the powder tank 1 can be adjusted so that the discharge port 3 of the powder tank can be accurately aligned with the feeding port of the mixing equipment below without manual adjustment. At the same time, after the feeding is completed, the powder tank 1 can be moved to the feeding port of another mixing equipment that needs to be added by the moving component 5, so as to realize the function of feeding multiple colored asphalt production mixing equipment.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the feeding assembly 6 includes a feeding motor 61, which is mounted on the powder tank 1. The feeding motor 61 is connected to one end of the feeding shaft 62, and the other end of the feeding shaft 62 is connected to the powder tank 1 through a bearing seat 63. Multiple feeding rods 64 are provided on the feeding shaft 62. The feeding motor 61 drives the feeding shaft 62 to rotate. The feeding rods 64 are mounted on the shaft and, when rotating, stir the color powder in the powder tank, break up the agglomeration, prevent the color powder from accumulating in the tank, ensure that the color powder falls evenly, and improve the discharge efficiency.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the powder tank 1 is equipped with a high level gauge 9 and a low level gauge 10. The high level gauge 9 and the low level gauge 10 are electrically connected to an alarm 11, which is installed on the control box 8. The alarm 11 is installed on the upper part of the powder tank and triggers a signal when the powder level reaches the high level to prompt the stop of feeding and avoid overflow. The low level gauge 10 is located above the feeding assembly 6 and issues an alarm when the powder level is lower than the low level to remind the replenishment of powder and prevent material shortage from affecting production. The alarm 11 is installed on the control box 8 and issues an audible and visual alarm after receiving the signal from the level gauges, which facilitates timely response by the operators.

[0027] Among them, the upper high level gauge 9 is located above the low level gauge 10, and the low level gauge 10 is located above the material feeding assembly 6.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a vibrator 12 is installed on one side of the powder tank 1. The vibrator 12 is installed on the side of the powder tank 1 and generates vibration when working. The vibration is transmitted to the color powder through the tank body, eliminating the arch structure formed by the accumulation of color powder due to gravity. It is especially suitable for color powder with fine particles or easy agglomeration, ensuring that the discharge pipe 3 is unobstructed.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, a powder flow meter 13 is installed on the discharge pipe 3. The powder flow meter 13 is installed on the discharge pipe 3 to monitor the flow rate of the color powder in real time, providing data support for the ratio control of color powder and binder in the production of colored asphalt, and ensuring the uniformity of asphalt color and quality stability.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, both the powder tank 1 and the top cover 2 are equipped with air blowing connection pipes 14; by connecting an external air pump through the air blowing connection pipes 14 on the powder tank 1 and the top cover 2, air can be blown in to clean the residual color powder inside the powder tank 1.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, multiple first mounting plates 15 are installed on the top of the mounting frame 51, and multiple second mounting plates 16 are installed on the bottom of the mounting frame 51. The multiple first mounting plates 15 are connected to the lifting plate to facilitate the hoisting of the mechanism, and the second mounting plates 16 are connected to the support plate to facilitate the support installation of the mechanism.

[0032] Working principle: Color powder can be stored in the powder tank 1. Color powder can be added to the tank through the feeding pipe 7 on the top cover 2. The discharge pipe 3 is moved to the feeding port of the colored asphalt production mixing equipment by the moving component 5, so that the color powder in the powder tank 1 can be directionally conveyed through the discharge pipe 3. By controlling the operation of the drive motor 53, the transmission screw 52 can be rotated, which in turn drives the powder tank 1 to move horizontally through the transmission block 4. The position of the powder tank 1 can be adjusted so that the discharge port 3 of the powder tank can be accurately aligned with the feeding port of the mixing equipment below without manual adjustment. After feeding is completed, the powder tank 1 can be moved to the feeding port of another mixing equipment that needs to be added by the moving component 5, so as to realize the function of feeding multiple colored asphalt production mixing equipment.
