Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural machinery technology, and in particular to a swing-type cassava feeder. Background Technology

[0002] Cassava is one of the world's most important food and economic crops, especially widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions. Cassava tubers are rich in starch, making them an important source of food, feed, and industrial raw materials. With global population growth and increasing demands for food security, the planting area and yield of cassava are constantly expanding. Equipment such as cassava crushers and cassava starch extractors require a continuous supply of cassava. Traditional manual feeding methods are labor-intensive and inefficient, requiring workers to constantly move cassava to the inlet of the processing equipment. Manual feeding also makes it difficult to maintain a stable feeding speed; inconsistent feeding speeds can affect the normal operation of subsequent processing equipment, leading to unstable equipment loads and impacting product quality and production efficiency. Cassava feeders are specialized machines designed to automatically, continuously, and stably transport cassava raw materials to subsequent processing equipment, playing a vital role in the cassava processing industry. Ordinary cassava feeders use a vibrator to generate high-frequency vibrations, causing cassava to slide off the discharge chute. However, traditional vibrators use a motor to drive an eccentric wheel to generate vibrations, making it difficult to control the discharge speed. Therefore, a swing-type cassava feeder is needed. This feeder causes cassava to slide off the discharge chute by swinging it. The discharge speed can be adjusted by changing the swing frequency, allowing the feeder's discharge speed to match the optimal operating conditions of subsequent processing equipment, thereby improving the overall production line efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes a swing-type cassava feeder, which causes cassava to slide off the discharge chute by swinging it. The discharge speed can be adjusted by changing the swing frequency, allowing the feeder's discharge speed to match the optimal operating conditions of subsequent processing equipment, thereby improving the overall production line efficiency.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: This utility model proposes a swing-type cassava feeder, including: a storage hopper, a support frame, a discharge chute, a swing assembly, and a drive motor. The storage hopper is installed on the ground via the support frame, and an opening is provided at the bottom of the storage hopper. The discharge chute is located below the opening of the storage hopper. One side of the discharge chute is connected to the lower part of the support frame via the swing assembly, and the other side of the discharge chute is connected to the upper part of the support frame via a connecting rod. The discharge chute is inclined downward. The drive motor is installed at the lower part of the support frame, and the shaft of the drive motor is connected to the swing assembly via a belt.

[0005] Furthermore, the swing assembly includes a mounting base, a circular plate, a drive shaft, and a connecting plate. One side of the connecting plate is connected to the discharge chute. The mounting base is mounted on the connecting plate by bolts. The circular plate is rotatably mounted in the mounting base. An eccentric mounting hole is provided on the circular plate. The drive shaft is connected to the mounting hole, and both ends of the drive shaft are connected to the support frame through bearing seats.

[0006] Furthermore, the mounting hole and the drive shaft are provided with keyways, and the drive shaft is connected to the circular plate via a connecting key.

[0007] Furthermore, there are two sets of the swing assembly, both sets of the swing assembly are installed on the same side of the discharge chute, the two sets of swing assemblies share a drive shaft, and the two circular plates are eccentric in the same direction on the drive shaft.

[0008] Furthermore, one end of the drive shaft is connected to the shaft of the drive motor via a belt and a pulley.

[0009] Furthermore, the center of the mounting hole is 2cm to 4cm away from the center of the circular plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the storage hopper and discharge trough are provided with multiple through holes.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting a swing component on one side of the discharge chute, the cassava can continuously slide from the storage hopper into the discharge chute and into the feeding port of the subsequent equipment after the circular plate rotates. The feeding speed of the feeder can be controlled by the swing frequency of the swing component, so that the discharge speed of the feeder can be matched with the optimal working conditions of the subsequent processing equipment, thereby improving the production efficiency of the entire production line.

Throughout the description, the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0018] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

[0019] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" in this utility model is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the stated features. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but only on the basis of being achievable by those skilled in the art. If the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, such a combination of technical solutions should be considered non-existent and not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a swing-type cassava feeder, including: a storage hopper 1, a support frame 2, a discharge chute 3, a swing assembly 4, and a drive motor 5. The storage hopper 1 is installed on the ground via the support frame 2, and the storage hopper 1 has an opening at its lower part. The discharge chute 3 is located below the opening of the storage hopper 1. One side of the discharge chute 3 is connected to the lower part of the support frame 2 via the swing assembly 4, and the other side of the discharge chute 3 is connected to the upper part of the support frame 2 via a connecting rod 6. The discharge chute 3 is inclined downward. The drive motor 5 is installed at the lower part of the support frame 2, and the shaft of the drive motor 5 is connected to the swing assembly 4 via a belt 7.

[0021] Cassava is conveyed to the storage hopper 1 via a conveyor belt for buffering. Under the influence of gravity, the cassava falls from the opening at the bottom of the storage hopper 1 onto the discharge chute 3. Under natural conditions, the cassava cannot overcome friction and slides down the discharge chute 3. The discharge chute 3 is connected to the support frame 2 via the swing component 4 and the connecting rod 6, allowing the discharge chute 3 to swing at a certain amplitude. When the swing component 4 is running, it can generate a swing with a controllable period and a large amplitude. Driven by the swing component 4, the discharge chute 3 swings, causing the cassava on the discharge chute 3 to slide down from top to bottom and continuously slide down the discharge chute 3 into the feeding port of the subsequent equipment. The speed at which the cassava slides down the discharge chute 3 is positively correlated with the swing frequency of the swing component. Therefore, the speed at which the cassava slides down the discharge chute 3 can be controlled by controlling the swing frequency of the swing component 4, so that the discharge speed of the feeder can be matched with the optimal working conditions of the subsequent processing equipment, thereby improving the production efficiency of the entire production line.

[0022] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, the swing assembly 4 includes a mounting base 8, a circular plate 9, a drive shaft 10, and a connecting plate 11. One side of the connecting plate 11 is connected to the discharge chute 3. The mounting base 8 is bolted to the connecting plate 11. The circular plate 9 is rotatably mounted in the mounting base 8. An eccentric mounting hole 12 is provided on the circular plate 9. The drive shaft 10 is connected to the mounting hole 12, and both ends of the drive shaft 10 are connected to the support frame 2 through bearing seats 13. Since the circular plate 9 is eccentrically mounted on the drive shaft 10, when the drive shaft 10 rotates, it can drive the circular plate 9 to rotate. Since the circular plate 9 is mounted in the mounting base 8, when the circular plate 9 swings, it can drive the discharge chute 3 to swing through the connecting plate 11, so that the cassava can slide off the discharge chute 3. The swing frequency of the swing assembly 4 is equal to the rotation frequency of the drive shaft 10. Therefore, the swing frequency of the swing assembly 4 can be controlled by controlling the speed of the drive motor 5, thereby controlling the feeding speed of the cassava so that the feeder can match the optimal working conditions of the subsequent equipment.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, the mounting hole 12 and the drive shaft 10 are provided with keyways. The drive shaft 10 is connected to the circular plate 9 through the connecting key 14. The connecting key 14 is stuck in the keyway, which can prevent relative sliding between the circular plate 9 and the drive shaft 10 when the drive shaft 10 rotates, thus ensuring the reliability of the connection.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, there are two sets of swing components 4, both of which are installed on the same side of the discharge trough 3. The two sets of swing components 4 share a drive shaft 10. The two circular plates 9 are eccentric in the same direction on the drive shaft 10. When the drive shaft 10 rotates, it can synchronously drive the two sets of swing components 4 to swing, and the swing phase of the two sets of swing components 4 is the same, so that the discharge trough 3 can swing more stably.

[0025] Preferably, one end of the drive shaft 10 is connected to the shaft of the drive motor 5 via a belt 7 and a pulley, so that the drive motor 5 and the drive shaft 10 are linked. By controlling the speed of the drive motor 5, the frequency of the swing component 4 is controlled, thereby controlling the cassava feeding speed.

[0026] Specifically, the center of the mounting hole 12 is 2cm to 4cm away from the center of the circular plate 9. By controlling the eccentricity, the swing amplitude of the swing component 4 can be controlled within a reasonable range.

[0027] Preferably, the storage hopper 1 and the discharge chute 3 are provided with multiple through holes. When the cassava is sent to the storage hopper 1 by the conveyor belt, it will also carry a small amount of soil. The through holes can allow some soil to fall through the through holes when the oscillating feed is performed, thereby reducing the amount of soil entering the subsequent equipment and reducing the pressure on the subsequent equipment to process the soil.

[0028] Of course, there may be other implementations of this utility model. Based on this implementation, other implementations obtained by those skilled in the art without any creative effort are all within the scope of protection of this utility model.
