Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grain drying tower technology, specifically to a grain feeding mechanism for a grain drying tower. Background Technology

[0002] A grain drying tower is an industrial device used for drying grains. Its core function is to reduce the moisture content of grains through hot air circulation, ensuring safe storage. When using a grain drying tower, a feeding mechanism is often used to evenly add the grain into the tower to facilitate uniform drying.

[0003] Existing grain drying tower feeding mechanisms typically employ a distribution box with multiple distribution pipes connected to the bottom to distribute the grain, achieving uniform feeding and preventing accumulation. However, in actual grain drying, as more grain is fed into the drying tower, the grain accumulates inside. To ensure the drying effect, it is necessary to control the grain feed rate. However, existing feeding mechanisms often struggle to adjust the discharge rate of the distribution box according to the required feed rate, hindering uniform feeding and impacting the feeding efficiency of the grain drying tower. Utility Model Content

[0009] Preferably, a T-shaped slider is installed on one side of the connecting block, and a groove is provided on the side wall of the control plate for the slider to slide, which facilitates the stable sliding of the connecting block along the side wall of the control plate.

[0016] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a grain feeding mechanism for a grain drying tower includes a diversion box 1. A feed pipe 2 is installed on the top of the diversion box 1, and two distribution pipes 4 are connected to the bottom. A partition 7 is installed inside the diversion box 1, and the partition 7 divides the inside of the diversion box 1 into two discharge chambers. The two distribution pipes 4 are respectively connected to the two discharge chambers. A diversion plate 8 is also installed on the top of the partition 7 to divert the grain into the two discharge chambers. A transparent observation window 6 is also provided on the front side of the diversion box 1, and a bracket 3 is fixed at the bottom of the diversion box 1. Both material discharge chambers are equipped with a quantity control structure 9. Each quantity control structure 9 includes a material control plate 91 rotatably connected to the bottom of the diversion plate 8 and an electric push rod 92 rotatably installed on one side of the partition plate 7. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 92 is connected to a connecting block 93 that can slide along one side of the material control plate 91. The receiving side of the material control plate 91 is equipped with evenly distributed dispersion blocks 95.

[0018] When feeding into the grain drying tower, the distribution box 1 can be installed on the grain drying tower through the bracket 3, and the distribution pipe 4 can be connected to the feed port of the grain drying tower. Then, the grain is added into the distribution box 1 through the feed pipe 2. At this time, under the action of the partition plate 7 and the distribution plate 8, the grain is divided into two discharge chambers, and then discharged into the grain drying tower through the two distribution pipes 4 respectively, so as to achieve uniform feeding into the grain drying tower. Furthermore, when grain is added into the diversion box 1, the discharge rate of the diversion box 1 can be adjusted according to the feed rate requirements of the grain drying tower. That is, the control plate 91 is driven to rotate along the bottom of the diversion plate 8 by the electric push rod 92 to adjust the gap between the end of the control plate 91 and the inner wall of the diversion box 1. For example, if the grain drying tower needs a large amount of feed, the electric push rod 92 pulls the control plate 91, causing the control plate 91 to rotate along the bottom of the diversion plate 8. At this time, the gap between the end of the control plate 91 and the inner wall of the diversion box 1 increases, so that the grain can fall quickly from the gap and be added into the grain drying tower through the distribution pipe 4. If the grain drying tower needs a small amount of feed or no feed at all, the electric push rod 92 pushes the control plate 91, causing the control plate 91 to rotate along the bottom of the diversion plate 8 again. At this time, the gap between the end of the control plate 91 and the inner wall of the diversion box 1 decreases, or even disappears, so as to realize a small amount of feed or stop the feed of the grain drying tower, thereby realizing the control of the grain discharge of the diversion box 1. This allows the grain discharge of the diversion box 1 to meet the different feeding needs of the grain drying tower, which is conducive to the uniform feeding of the grain drying tower, improves the feeding efficiency of the grain drying tower, and realizes the efficient drying of grain.

[0019] Furthermore, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, a T-shaped slider is installed on one side of the connecting block 93, and a groove 94 for the slider to slide is provided on the side wall of the control plate 91.

[0020] When the electric push rod 92 drives the control plate 91 to rotate, the connecting block 93 can move along the slide groove 94 via the slider to facilitate the adjustment of the control plate 91.

[0021] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, limit blocks are installed on both sides of the bottom end of the control plate 91, and limit grooves for sliding of the limit blocks are opened on both sides of the inner wall of the diversion box 1.

[0022] During the rotation of the control plate 91, the limiting block can slide along the limiting groove to limit the distance between the control plate 91 and the diversion box 1, thereby ensuring the stable adjustment of the control plate 91 and facilitating the control of the feed amount of the grain drying tower.

[0023] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, guide blocks 10 are installed on both sides of the inner wall of the diversion box 1 and both sides of the partition 7, so that the bottom of the two material discharge chambers forms a funnel shape.

[0024] When the grain falls from the discharge chamber, the guide block 10 can guide the grain to flow out quickly from the discharge chamber, avoiding the accumulation of grain in the discharge chamber, which in turn facilitates the feeding of the grain drying tower.

[0025] In another embodiment, such as Figures 1-3As shown, the diversion box 1 is also provided with a stirring structure 5 for stirring the grain in the two feeding chambers. The stirring structure 5 includes rotating rods 51 that are rotatably installed on both sides of the partition plate 7. Each of the two rotating rods 51 is equipped with a stirring main rod 53, and one end of each of the two rotating rods 51 extends to the outside of the diversion box 1 and is equipped with an adjusting handwheel 52. The stirring main rod 53 is located below the material control plate 91.

[0026] When grain accumulates and becomes blocked in the distribution box 1, the rotating rod 51 can be rotated by adjusting the handwheel 52, so that the rotating rod 51 drives the stirring main rod 53 to rotate in the discharge chamber, thereby agitating the grain in the discharge chamber, breaking up the grain, preventing the grain from clumping, thus avoiding blockage in the distribution box 1, facilitating the rapid discharge of grain from the distribution box 1, and promoting uniform feeding of the grain drying tower.

[0027] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, multiple agitator rods 54 are installed on the main agitator rod 53, which are evenly distributed along its axial direction, and the multiple agitator rods 54 are of different lengths.

[0028] When the main agitator 53 agitates the grain in the discharge chamber, it can drive multiple auxiliary agitators 54 of different lengths to rotate synchronously, thereby agitating the grain, improving the agitation effect, further preventing the grain from accumulating in the discharge chamber, and facilitating the rapid discharge of the grain.

[0029] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
