A controllable flow material feed hopper

Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of material funnel technology, specifically to a controllable flow material feeding hopper, including a feeding pipe and a feeding assembly. The feeding assembly includes a feeding hopper, two adjusting components, a conveying component, and a feeding component. The feeding hopper is fixedly connected to the feeding pipe. The feeding hopper gathers the material, which then flows through the feeding pipe. The output end of a drive cylinder moves a telescopic plate, which is adjusted to control the size of the leakage opening. The material is then poured into the feeding pipe. During the pouring process, the conveying component drives the feeding component to rotate, accelerating the flow of the material through the adjusting components, and finally, it flows out of the feeding hopper. This solution solves the problem that existing feeding hoppers cannot control the flow rate of the material, and the fixed flow rate makes it impossible to meet different needs.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material hopper technology, and in particular to a controllable flow material feeding hopper. Background Technology

[0002] Biomass such as straw, branches, bark, roots, and wood processing plant by-products, after proper processing, can be used as biomass fuel for biomass power generation. However, these biomass materials vary in shape and size. When using a hopper to transport materials, materials with inconsistent particle size, density, and poor flowability are prone to stratification and bridging near the hopper's inlet, preventing the material from falling smoothly.

[0003] The prior art (CN220010783U) discloses a feeding hopper including a feeding hopper, a mounting base fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the feeding hopper, a stirring mechanism provided on the upper surface of the mounting base, and a feeding pipe fixedly connected to the lower surface of the feeding hopper. A conveying mechanism is provided inside the feeding pipe. In this invention, by feeding material into the feeding hopper and simultaneously activating the stirring mechanism, the material is stirred, preventing excessive material from causing blockage when entering the feeding hopper. The stirring mechanism also drives the conveying mechanism to work simultaneously, thus conveying the material and preventing material accumulation at the feeding pipe and inlet, thereby not affecting the normal feeding of the hopper.

[0004] However, the above solution cannot control the feed rate. Since the material flow rate is fixed, it cannot meet the needs of different requirements. Utility Model Content

[0011] This invention discloses a controllable flow material feeding hopper. The feeding hopper is fixedly connected to a feeding pipe. The material is collected by the feeding hopper and then flows through the feeding pipe. The output end of the drive cylinder drives the telescopic plate to move.

The aforementioned solution solves the problem that the existing feeding hopper cannot control the flow rate of the material, and that the fixed flow rate of the material makes it unable to meet different needs.

[0021] In this specific embodiment, the feeding assembly 102 includes a feeding hopper 103, two adjusting members 104, a conveying member 105, and a feeding member 106. The feeding hopper 103 is fixedly connected to the feeding pipe 101 and is located on one side of the feeding pipe 101.

The feed hopper 103 is fixedly connected to the feed pipe 101. The feed hopper 103 gathers the material, which then flows through the feed pipe 101. The output end of the drive cylinder 108 drives the telescopic plate 109 to move. The telescopic plate 109 is adjusted to control the size of the leakage gap and is located at the lowest part of the feed pipe 101 to control the flow rate. Then, the material is poured into the feed pipe 101. During the pouring process, the conveying component 105 drives the feeding component 106 to rotate, accelerating the material flow from the adjusting component 104 and finally flowing out from the feed hopper 103. Through the above solution, the problem that the existing feed hopper cannot control the flow rate of the feed, and that the fixed flow rate of the material makes it impossible to meet different needs is solved.

[0022] The mounting base 111 is connected to the feed hopper 103 and located on one side of the feed hopper 103.

The mounting base 111 is located on the outer side of the feed hopper 103 as a support for the drive motor 112. During operation, the output end of the drive motor 112 drives the drive rod 113 to rotate. The rotation of the drive rod 113 drives the first helical tooth 114 to rotate. The rotation of the first helical tooth 114 drives the feed pipe 101 component to continue to rotate, thereby guiding and rotating the put-in material to be stirred, and then falling through the feed component 106.

[0023] Secondly, the fixed column 116 is fixedly connected to the drive rod 113 and located on one side of the drive rod 113. The spring 117 is fixedly connected to the fixed column 116 and located on one side of the fixed column 116. The sliding column 118 is fixedly connected to the spring 117 and located on one side of the fixed column 116. The fixed column 116 is located at the center position. After the spring 117 deforms, it pushes the sliding column 118 to both sides to unfold and adapt to the size of different positions of the feed hopper 103, so as to process the material as much as possible.

[0024] Meanwhile, the driven rod 119 is located on one side of the feed pipe 101, the second helical tooth 120 is rotatably connected to the driven rod 119 and located on one side of the driven gear, the connecting member 121 is fixedly connected to the second helical tooth 120 and rotatably connected to the driven rod 119 and located on one side of the second helical tooth 120, the spiral blade 122 is fixedly connected to the connecting member 121 and located on one side of the connecting member 121, the first helical tooth 114 meshes with the second helical tooth 120, when the first helical tooth 114 rotates, it will drive the second helical tooth 120 to rotate, the rotation of the second helical tooth 120 will drive the connecting member 121 to rotate on the driven rod 119, the rotation of the connecting member 121 will drive the spiral blade 122 to rotate, and the material will be stirred and discharged.

[0025] In addition, the limiting member 123 is fixedly connected to the feed pipe 101 and is located on one side of the feed pipe 101. The limiting member 123 is located on the surface of the feed pipe 101. The funnel needs to be connected to other devices for material discharge. The limiting member 123 ensures that the force is increased when connecting.

[0026] In using this utility model, the feeding hopper 103 is fixedly connected to the feeding pipe 101. The feeding hopper 103 collects the material, which then flows through the feeding pipe 101. The output end of the drive cylinder 108 drives the telescopic plate 109 to move. The adjustment of the telescopic plate 109 controls the size of the flow opening. The output end of the drive cylinder 108 controls the size of the leakage gap. Then, the material is poured into the feeding hopper 103. During the pouring process, the output end of the drive motor 112 drives the drive rod 113 to rotate. The rotation of the drive rod 113 drives the first helical tooth 114 to rotate. The rotation of the first helical tooth 114 drives the feeding pipe 101 to rotate. The component continues to rotate, thereby guiding and stirring the placed material to accelerate its flow. Subsequently, the drive motor 112 drives the drive rod 113 to rotate. When the drive rod 113 drives the first helical tooth 114 to rotate, the first helical tooth 114 will drive the second helical tooth 120 to rotate. The rotation of the second helical tooth 120 will drive the connecting member 121 to rotate on the driven rod 119. The rotation of the connecting member 121 will drive the spiral blade 122 to rotate, thus stirring the material and completing the discharge. Through the above solution, the problem of the inability to control the flow rate of the feed in the existing feed hopper is solved. Because the flow rate of the material is fixed, it is impossible to meet different needs.
