Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hopper mixer technology, and in particular to a mobile experimental hopper mixer. Background Technology

[0002] Laboratory hopper mixers are mainly used for mixing materials such as granules with granules, granules with powders, and powders with powders in solid dosage form experiments. They are essential mixing equipment in pharmaceutical laboratories and are also widely used in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries. Different types of laboratory hopper mixers are generally similar in structure, typically consisting of a base, drive system, control system, and mixing hopper. During operation, after adding materials to the hopper and locking the lid, the mixing time and speed are set according to the process requirements. The control system is then activated to begin mixing. After the set time, the machine stops vertically, and mixing is complete.

[0003] However, existing experimental hopper mixers lack a good moving mechanism and angle adjustment mechanism after mixing materials, which limits the device's material discharge.

[0004] The information disclosed above in this background section is merely for enhancing understanding of the background technology of this application, and therefore may include prior art that is not known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a mobile experimental hopper mixer that can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A mobile experimental hopper mixer includes a fixed base. The fixed base has two sliding grooves at its upper front and upper rear, and a first sliding groove at its upper middle. A servo motor is fixedly installed at the right end of the first sliding groove. An adjustment device is slidably installed at the upper end of the first sliding groove. A support base is fixedly installed at the upper end of the adjustment device. The hopper mixer is fixedly installed at the upper end of the support base. A support device is fixedly installed at the left end of the fixed base.

[0008] Preferably, the adjusting device includes an adjusting base. A movable base is movably mounted on the upper left side of the adjusting base. Several gear slots are formed on the outer surface of the movable base. A second servo motor is fixedly mounted on the upper right side of the adjusting base. A drive gear is fixedly mounted on the output end of the second servo motor. The drive gear meshes with the movable base through the gear slots. A slider is fixedly mounted on the lower middle part of the adjusting base. A threaded rod is fixedly mounted on the output end of the first servo motor. The threaded rod is rotatably mounted in a first sliding groove. The slider is threaded onto the outer surface of the threaded rod. The adjusting base is slidably mounted on the first sliding groove via the slider. The first servo motor drives the threaded rod to rotate in the first sliding groove. At this time, the slider on the threaded rod drives the adjusting base to slide left and right on the first sliding groove, thereby adjusting the position of the hopper on the hopper mixer. In addition, the second servo motor drives the drive gear, which in turn drives the movable base to rotate on the adjusting base through the gear slots, thereby adjusting the discharge angle of the hopper on the hopper mixer.

[0009] Preferably, two mounting screws are installed at both the front and rear ends of the support base, and support frames are fixedly installed at both the front and rear lower ends of the hopper mixer. Two casters are installed at the lower ends of both support frames. The hopper mixer is fixed to the upper end of the support base by the mounting screws. Loosening the mounting screws on the support base allows for the loosening of the hopper mixer's fixation, facilitating its disassembly.

[0010] Preferably, the support device includes a guide seat, with baffles fixedly installed at both the front and rear ends of the guide seat. A controller is fixedly installed at the lower part of the front end of the baffle, and the guide seat is fixedly installed at the left end of the fixed base. The hopper mixer can be pushed to the guide seat by its lower casters and then pushed down by the guide seat, thereby allowing the hopper mixer to be disassembled.

[0011] Preferably, the mounting screws and screw holes are positioned in a front-to-back correspondence, and the caster wheel has a self-locking structure.

[0012] Preferably, the guide seat is semi-trapezoidal, and the upper end face of the guide seat is flush with the lower inner wall of the support seat.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. When the hopper mixer needs to discharge materials after mixing, the first servo motor drives the threaded rod to rotate in the first slide groove. At this time, the slider on the threaded rod drives the adjusting seat to slide left and right on the first slide groove, thereby adjusting the position of the hopper on the hopper mixer. In addition, the second servo motor drives the drive gear, which in turn drives the movable seat to rotate on the adjusting seat through the gear groove, thereby adjusting the discharge angle of the hopper on the hopper mixer. This facilitates the rapid discharge of materials by the device without the need for manual material receiving.

[0015] 2. When needed, the threaded rod is driven by the No. 1 servo motor to move the adjusting seat and make it close to the guide seat. At this time, the mounting screws on the support seat are loosened, thereby loosening the fixation of the hopper mixer. Then, the hopper mixer can be pushed to the guide seat by the universal wheel at its lower end, and then pushed down by the guide seat, thereby disassembling the hopper mixer for easy use by the hopper mixer alone.

A support device 4 is fixedly installed at the left end of the fixed base 1.

[0025] The adjustment device 2 includes an adjustment seat 20. A movable seat 22 is movably mounted on the upper left side of the adjustment seat 20. Several gear grooves 23 are opened on the outer surface of the movable seat 22. A second servo motor 25 is inserted and fixedly mounted on the upper right side of the adjustment seat 20. A drive gear 24 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the second servo motor 25. The drive gear 24 is meshed with the movable seat 22 through the gear grooves 23.

The adjustment seat 20 is slidably mounted on the first slide groove 6 through the slider 21. The first servo motor 8 drives the threaded rod 26 to rotate in the first slide groove 6. At this time, the slider 21 on the threaded rod 26 drives the adjusting seat 20 to slide left and right on the first slide groove 6, thereby adjusting the position of the hopper on the hopper mixer 5. In addition, the second servo motor 25 drives the drive gear 24, which in turn drives the movable seat 22 to rotate on the adjusting seat 20 through the gear groove 23, thereby adjusting the feeding angle of the hopper on the hopper mixer 5.

[0026] Two mounting screws 30 are installed at both the front and rear ends of the support base 3. Support frames 31 are fixedly installed at the front and rear lower ends of the hopper mixer 5. Two casters 33 are installed at the lower ends of both support frames 31. The hopper mixer 5 is fixed to the upper end of the support base 3 by the mounting screws 30. The mounting screws 30 correspond to the screw holes 32, and the casters 33 have a self-locking mechanism. Loosening the mounting screws 30 on the support base 3 allows for the loosening of the hopper mixer 5, facilitating its disassembly. The hopper mixer 5 is a model HSD laboratory hopper mixer.

[0027] The support device 4 includes a guide seat 40, with baffles 41 fixedly installed at both the front and rear ends of the guide seat 40. A controller 42 is fixedly installed at the lower front end of the front baffle 41. The guide seat 40 is fixedly installed at the left end of the fixed base 1. The guide seat 40 is semi-trapezoidal, and its upper surface is flush with the lower inner wall of the support base 3. The hopper mixer 5 can be pushed to the guide seat 40 by the universal wheels 33 at its lower end, and then pushed down by the guide seat 40, thereby disassembling the hopper mixer 5.

The controller 42 is electrically connected to the first servo motor 8 and the second servo motor 25, and the controller 42 needs to be connected to an external power source before use.

[0028] It should be noted that this utility model is a mobile experimental hopper mixer. When the hopper mixer 5 has finished mixing materials and needs to discharge them, the first servo motor 8 drives the threaded rod 26 to rotate in the first slide groove 6. At this time, the slider 21 on the threaded rod 26 drives the adjusting seat 20 to slide left and right on the first slide groove 6, thereby adjusting the position of the hopper on the hopper mixer 5. In addition, the second servo motor 25 drives the drive gear 24, which in turn drives the movable seat 22 to rotate on the adjusting seat 20 through the gear groove 23. The device can adjust the discharge angle of the hopper on the hopper mixer 5, which facilitates rapid material discharge without the need for manual material handling. In addition, the servo motor 8 drives the threaded rod 26 to move the adjusting seat 20 and make it close to the guide seat 40. At this time, the mounting screws 30 on the support seat 3 are loosened, which loosens the fixation of the hopper mixer 5. Then, the hopper mixer 5 can be pushed to the guide seat 40 by the universal wheel 33 at its lower end, and then pushed down by the guide seat 40, which allows the hopper mixer 5 to be disassembled for independent use.
