Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water quality improver processing technology, specifically to a granulator for processing microbial water quality improvers. Background Technology

[0002] Microbial water quality improvers are widely used in aquaculture, wastewater treatment and environmental remediation. Their formulation design directly affects the activity, stability and effectiveness of the microorganisms.

[0003] To improve the survival rate and sustained-release performance of microorganisms, existing technologies often process microbial agents into granules through granulation processes and use encapsulation technologies (such as sodium alginate, starch, etc.) to protect microorganisms from environmental factors such as humidity, ultraviolet radiation, and oxidation. In addition, granular formulations can control the disintegration rate, enabling the gradual release of microorganisms and avoiding the problems of excessively high local concentrations or rapid loss of active ingredients due to one-time release.

[0004] However, existing pelleting machines require adjusting the material humidity before granulation. If the raw material is too dry, it needs to be humidified by spraying water.

[0005] The current conventional humidification method is to directly spray water and combine it with simple turning. However, this method is prone to uneven moisture distribution, with some materials becoming too wet and clumping together, while others remain too dry, affecting the uniformity of subsequent granulation and the granule forming effect. If the humidification is uneven, it may lead to excessively high local moisture, causing some microorganisms to become inactive due to changes in osmotic pressure or premature swelling of the carrier material, thus reducing the effective bacteria content of the final product.

[0033] Example

[0034] To address the technical problems in the background section, the following granulation machine for processing microbial water quality improvers is provided:

[0035] Combination Figures 1-4 As shown, the granulator for processing microbial water quality improvers provided by this utility model includes: a base 100, a mounting shell 300 fixedly installed on the top of the base 100, a discharge port 700 fixedly installed on one side of the mounting shell 300, an extrusion chamber 301 disposed inside the mounting shell 300, an extrusion unit 200 extending into the discharge port 700 rotatably mounted inside the extrusion chamber 301, extrusion holes 302 evenly distributed between the extrusion chamber 301 and the discharge port 700, a communicating discharge bin 400 fixedly installed on the top of the mounting shell 300, a communicating discharge bin 400 fixedly installed on the top of the discharge bin 400, a guide plate 401 and a guide plate 402 fixedly installed on both sides inside the discharge bin 400, and a humidifier fixedly installed at the bottom of the guide plate 402. Unit 600 has a connected feeding chamber 403 fixedly installed on the top of the feeding hopper 400, and a feeding unit 500 is assembled on the outside of the feeding chamber 403. The mounting shell 300 realizes the extrusion and guiding of the material by the extrusion unit 200 through the internal extrusion chamber 301, so that the material is extruded through the extrusion hole 302. The feeding unit 500 realizes the automated feeding operation of the equipment, which is more time-saving and labor-saving than the traditional manual lifting feeding. It avoids the limitation of feeding caused by the height of the feeding port. The guide plate inside the feeding hopper 400 and the humidification unit 600 work together to ensure the uniformity of the material during feeding and to atomize and humidify the dry material during feeding. This better ensures that the material is moistened more evenly and ensures the extrusion effect of the material.

[0036] The humidification unit 600 includes a liquid supply rod 601 and an atomizing nozzle 602. The liquid supply rod 601 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the guide plate 402, and the downwardly tilted atomizing nozzle 602 is fixedly installed on the liquid supply rod 601. The liquid supply rod 601 is connected to an external liquid supply system to realize the liquid supply operation of the liquid supply rod 601, and the atomizing nozzle 602 performs spray humidification.

[0037] The feeding unit 500 includes a feeding trough 501, a feeding channel 502, a worm gear reducer 503, and a second motor 504. The feeding channel 502 is movably installed on the outer side of the feeding chamber 403, and the feeding trough 501 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the feeding channel 502. The worm gear reducer 503 is fixedly installed on the back of the feeding chamber 403, and the second motor 504 is mounted on the worm gear reducer 503. Through the cooperation of the worm gear reducer 503, the second motor 504 can stably drive the feeding channel 502 to turn, avoiding descent during turning. Personnel only need to inject materials into the feeding trough 501.

[0038] In this embodiment, a support foot is fixedly installed at the bottom of the base 100, and a rubber support seat 101 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the base 100.

[0039] The base 100 is supported by the support feet; while the rubber support seat 101 supports the feeding trough 501. In this way, when the feeding trough 501 descends to the bottom, it can be buffered and supported by the rubber support seat 101.

[0040] In this embodiment, the extrusion unit 200 includes a motor 201, a rotating shaft 202, a spiral extrusion roller 203, a mounting head 204, and a cutting blade assembly 205. The rotating shaft 202 is rotatably mounted on the extrusion chamber 301, and the spiral extrusion roller 203 is fitted on the rotating shaft 202. One end of the rotating shaft 202 extends into the feed port 700 and is connected to the mounting head 204. The cutting blade assembly 205 is fixedly mounted on the mounting head 204. The motor 201 is fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting shell 300, and the output end of the motor 201 is connected to the rotating shaft 202.

[0041] The material can be extruded through the extrusion unit 200. The motor 201 drives the rotating shaft 202 and the spiral extrusion roller 203 to extrude the material. The extruded material is in the shape of a strip and is then cut into granules by the cutting blade group 205.

[0042] In this embodiment, the humidification unit 600 also includes a fixing seat 603. The fixing seat 603 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the guide plate 402. The fixing seat 603 is used to fix the liquid supply rod 601. One end of the liquid supply rod 601 is connected to a connector that extends out of the discharge hopper 400.

[0043] The mounting bracket 603 serves as the installation component, ensuring that the liquid supply rod 60 can be installed at the bottom of the guide plate 402. During operation, personnel can connect the external water supply pipe to the connector, allowing external water to enter the liquid supply rod 60 for humidification.

[0044] In this embodiment, the first guide plate 401 and the second guide plate 402 are staggered and inclined downwards.

[0045] The staggered arrangement of guide plates 401 and 402 ensures that the material can enter the extrusion chamber 301 evenly, and the downward tilt ensures that the material falls automatically.

[0046] In this embodiment, a rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on both the front and back sides of the guide plate 401. A connecting arm 505 is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft, and the connecting arm 505 is fixedly connected to the feeding channel 502. The output end of the worm gear reducer 503 is installed and connected to the rotating shaft.

[0047] During this process, the rotating shaft is driven by the motor 504 through the worm gear reducer 503, causing the rotating shaft to rotate and move the connecting arm 505 on it. At that time, the connecting arm 505 can drive the feeding channel 502 to flip, completing the lifting and feeding required by the equipment.

[0048] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0049] The electrical components in this application, such as motors and reducers, are all existing technologies and are widely used by those skilled in the art. Furthermore, the aforementioned electrical components are connected to an external controller via wires, and the controller can be controlled by a PLC controller.

[0050] In use, when the feeding trough 501 descends to its lowest point, it is cushioned and supported by the rubber support seat 101. Personnel pour material into the feeding trough 501 and start the second motor 504. The second motor 504 drives the rotating shaft through the worm gear reducer 503, causing the rotating shaft to rotate and tilt its connecting arm 505. This, in turn, causes the feeding channel 502 to tilt, simultaneously tilting the bottom feeding trough 501 upwards. When the material is turned over, it will flow down through the feeding channel 502 and enter the feeding chamber 403. Then, it will fall into the discharge bin 400 through the feeding chamber 403. Then, under the guidance of the first guide plate 401 and the second guide plate 402, the material will evenly enter the extrusion chamber 301. During this period, if the material is relatively dry, the personnel can connect the external water supply pipe to the connector to allow external water to enter the liquid supply rod 60 and spray and humidify the falling material through the atomizing nozzle 602.

[0051] The second step involves using the motor 201 to drive the rotating shaft 202 and the spiral extrusion roller 203 to extrude the material. As the material inside the extrusion chamber 301 increases, it is then extruded. The extruded material is in the shape of a strip, and then it is rotated and cut into granules by the cutting blade assembly 205.
