[0002] Granules are dried granular preparations made by mixing drugs with suitable excipients. They are typically produced through processes such as granulation and drying, and their particle size generally ranges from 100 micrometers to 2 millimeters. They combine the characteristics of powders and capsules, maintaining drug stability while facilitating dosage dispensing. Compared to tablets, they dissolve more easily and are absorbed more quickly. Widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries, the accuracy of their packaging and metering directly affects product quality and production efficiency. Therefore, a dispensing and metering hopper with an adjustable blade spacing device is required.

[0003] The granule dispensing and metering hopper screw conveyor blade spacing adjustment device is a mechanism used for conveying and quantitatively dispensing granular materials. It usually adopts a screw conveyor structure to transport granules from the raw material silo to the metering hopper for quantitative feeding. In the past, the screw blade structure was usually fixed and the spacing between the blades was not adjustable. This meant that when dealing with different granule characteristics or packaging specifications, it was necessary to replace the entire set of blades or conveying components, which was a cumbersome adjustment process and resulted in long downtime. Utility Model Content

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 An embodiment of this utility model provides a granule dispensing metering hopper spiral conveyor blade spacing adjustment device, including a housing 1, a feeding hopper 2 and a discharging hopper 3 inside the housing 1, a motor 4 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the housing 1, the output end of the motor 4 passing through the interior of the housing 1 and fixedly connected to a convex frame 5, a connecting shaft 6 rotatably connected inside the convex frame 5, a sealing plate 7 inside the connecting shaft 6, a circular block 8 slidably connected inside both the connecting shaft 6 and the sealing plate 7, a paddle frame 9 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the circular block 8, a sliding rod 10 slidably connected inside the paddle frame 9, both ends of the sliding rod 10 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the convex frame 5, a T-shaped rod 11 rotatably connected inside the convex frame 5, the outer wall of the T-shaped rod 11 fixedly connected to the interior of the connecting shaft 6, and a limit component inside the T-shaped rod 11;

[0025] Specifically, the convex frame 5 is driven by the motor 4. The convex frame 5, connecting shaft 6, paddle frame 9, and slide bar 10 can be considered as a whole, facilitating the rotation of the paddle frame 9 to convey the granules inside the housing 1. A control valve is installed inside the hopper 3 to control the material inside the hopper 3 and to meter the material for dispensing. The T-shaped rod 11 is limited by a limiting component, causing the housing 1 to rotate with the convex frame 5, thereby preventing accidental rotation of the connecting shaft 6. The connecting shaft 6 has multiple arc-shaped grooves inside, and each arc-shaped groove is curved... The different degrees facilitate the sliding of the round block 8 within the groove. The slide rod 10 limits the position of the blade holder 9, thereby adjusting the position of the blade holder 9 on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 6 and adjusting the blade spacing. A sealing plate 7 is provided on the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove to prevent granules from entering the arc-shaped groove and affecting the movement of the blade holder 9. The sealing plate 7 is flexible and has an opening inside. When the position of the blade holder 9 is not adjusted, the sealing plate 7 remains sealed. When the position of the blade holder 9 is adjusted, the round block 8 will press against the opening of the sealing plate 7, causing the sealing plate 7 to open and close simultaneously.

[0026] Reference Figure 2 The limiting component includes a pin 12, the outer wall of which is slidably connected to the inside of the T-shaped rod 11, and the outer wall of the pin 12 is located inside the convex frame 5.

[0027] Specifically, the pin 12 is set inside the T-shaped rod 11, and the pin 12 is set to the commonly available automatic spring type, which makes it easy to lock the right side of the pin 12 inside the convex frame 5, so as to prevent the pin 12 from sliding out of the convex frame 5 due to the centrifugal force generated when the convex frame 5 rotates. When not needed, the left side of the pin 12 can also be installed to slide the pin 12 out of the convex frame 5.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The outer wall of the convex frame 5 is rotatably connected to the inside of the housing 1, and the inner wall of the blade frame 9 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting shaft 6.

[0029] Specifically, both ends of the connecting shaft 6 are provided with convex brackets 5, and the convex brackets 5 on both sides rotate inside the housing 1, thereby supporting the rotation of the connecting shaft 6. The outer wall of the connecting shaft 6 is used for the movement of the blade frame 9.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4The feed hopper 2 is equipped with an L-shaped block 13 and an L-shaped block 24 inside, and a limit rod 15 is slidably connected inside the L-shaped block 13 and the L-shaped block 2. A spring 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the L-shaped block 13, and the outer wall of the spring 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the L-shaped block 2. A support seat 17 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of both the L-shaped block 13 and the L-shaped block 2. A base 18 is slidably connected inside the support seat 17. The lower surface of the base 18 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the box 1, and a fixing rod 19 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support seat 17. A T-shaped frame 20 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the fixing rod 19, and the outer wall of the T-shaped frame 20 is rotatably connected to the inside of the base 18.

[0031] Specifically, when installing the feed hopper 2, the feed hopper 2 is slid into the interior of the housing 1. Mounting blocks are provided on both sides of the feed hopper 2, and the interior of the mounting blocks has grooves that match the outer walls of L-shaped blocks 13 and 14. This allows the L-shaped blocks 13 and 14 to move to both sides under the elastic force of the spring 16, so that the outer walls of L-shaped blocks 13 and 14 slide into the grooves, thereby limiting the installation of the feed hopper 2. A slide rail is provided on the upper surface of the base 18 to restrict the movement of the support 17. A short rod is provided in the middle of the T-shaped frame 20, which rotates inside the base 18. The interior of the T-shaped frame 20 has grooves for the movement of the fixing rod 19, thereby facilitating the synchronous movement of the fixing rod 19 on both sides and the support 17.

[0032] Working principle: When using this device, the granules are fed into the housing 1 through the feed hopper 2. Then, the motor 4 is started, driving the convex frame 5 to rotate inside the housing 1. The convex frames 5 on both sides, through the slide rod 10 and the blade frame 9, form a whole. At the same time, the pin 12 is inserted into the inside of the left convex frame 5, causing the T-shaped rod 11 and the connecting shaft 6 to rotate with the convex frame 5. This avoids the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the multiple blade frames 9 on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 6, which would cause the connecting shaft 6 to shift. The rotation of the connecting shaft 6 then moves the contents of the housing 1. The granules are conveyed through the feed hopper 3 and then distributed to other equipment after metering. When the motor 4 is not running, the granules inside the box 1 are emptied. The pin 12 is pulled out of the left convex frame 5, so that the T-shaped rod 11 no longer follows the convex frame 5. The T-shaped rod 11 is rotated, which drives the connecting shaft 6 to rotate inside the convex frames 5 on both sides. Under the action of the arc groove opened in the connecting shaft 6 by the round block 8 and the sealing plate 7, the blade frame 9 is driven to move towards the center of the connecting shaft 6 on the outer wall of the sealing plate 7 and the slide rod 10, thereby adjusting the spacing of the blade frame 9.

[0033] By pressing L-shaped blocks 13 and 14, they move towards the center of the base 18 under the limit of the limiting rod 15, compressing the spring 16. At the same time, the support seats 17 on both sides move towards the T-shaped frame 20. The base 18 limits the movement of the support seats 17. The support seats 17 drive the fixed rod 19 to move, thereby driving the T-shaped frame 20 to rotate. Under the action of the T-shaped frame 20, the fixed rod 19 and the support seats 17, the normal movement of L-shaped blocks 13 and 14 is ensured. After the movement of L-shaped blocks 13 and 14, they slide out of the inside of the feed hopper 2, and the feed hopper 2 is no longer limited, making it easy to slide the feed hopper 2 out of the box 1. During use, this device not only adjusts the spacing between multiple paddle frames 9 to control the material conveying volume, but also enables quick installation and disassembly of the feed hopper 2, facilitating cleaning or maintenance of the feed hopper 2.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
