Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of twin-shaft mixers, and in particular relates to a high-strength through-shaft support for the outer shell of a twin-shaft mixer. Background Technology
[0002] In the design of twin-shaft mixers, the shaft penetration point at the end plate of the outer shell has always been a weak point in structural strength. Traditional technology usually involves fixing a sleeve through the end plate of the outer shell, with the mixing shaft passing through the sleeve, and a support bearing placed between the sleeve and the mixing shaft. To strengthen this structure, reinforcing ribs are usually welded between the sleeve and the outer shell to form a basic reinforcement scheme. This traditional structure is widely used in the field of mixing equipment. Its design concept is to distribute some of the stress from the sleeve to the outer shell through the reinforcing ribs, thereby reducing the stress concentration phenomenon at the end plate opening.
[0003] Although stiffeners improve structural strength to some extent, this traditional approach has significant technical limitations. Among the three strengthening methods (thickening the pipe wall, increasing the number of stiffeners, and increasing the height of the stiffeners), increasing the height of the stiffeners can significantly reduce stress and has the most obvious effect. However, simply increasing the wall thickness has little effect on reducing stress. This indicates that there is room for structural optimization in the design of traditional low stiffeners. In addition, fatigue failure is the most common problem at the connection of the mixer sleeve. Due to the unbalanced alternating load generated by the mixing shaft during operation, as well as the vibration and impact caused by the change in resistance during material mixing, periodic stress cycles will be generated at the connection between the sleeve and the end plate, eventually leading to the generation and propagation of structural fatigue cracks.
[0004] In actual working conditions, the working environment of a twin-shaft forced mixer is particularly harsh. The concrete mixture being mixed inside the casing will exert continuous pressure on the shaft end seal. If the seal is damaged, the bearing system will be exposed, which will lead to the failure of the entire transmission system. This shows that the traditional reinforced structure is insufficient in maintaining the stability of the shaft end seal.
[0005] The following problems still exist: 1. Stress Concentration Problem: There is often significant stress concentration at the connection between traditional reinforcing ribs and sleeves, especially at the ends of the reinforcing ribs. This stress concentration is further aggravated by the alternating load of the stirring shaft, leading to fatigue cracks. Some stirring shaft structures will fracture under normal working conditions. Commonly, those with stiffening plates will produce annular fracture surfaces at the lower edge of the stiffening plates.
[0006] 2. Vibration transmission problem: Simple reinforcing rib structure cannot effectively suppress and absorb the vibration generated during the operation of the stirring shaft. These vibrations will be transmitted to the outer shell through the reinforcing ribs, leading to problems such as loose connecting bolts and premature failure of shaft seals. At the same time, it will also generate a lot of operating noise.
[0007] 3. Installation accuracy issues: Traditional structures lack effective fault tolerance design and deviation compensation mechanisms during installation, making it difficult to accurately guarantee the coaxiality between the sleeve and the stirring shaft. This often leads to derivative problems such as uneven bearing wear and uneven sealing. In particular, for large twin-shaft mixers, due to the cumulative effect of manufacturing tolerances and welding deformation, assembly gaps often appear between the connecting beam and the base frame after installation, affecting the overall stability of the structure. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-strength through-shaft support for the outer shell of a twin-shaft mixer. Through the design of the base frame connecting beam, a direct connection is achieved between the inner and outer sleeves and the mixer base frame, connecting the shaft support to the main frame as a whole. Most of the load is directly guided to the robust base frame, forming a shorter force transmission path and a more efficient structural load-bearing system. The additional support points provided by the connecting beam effectively reduce the radial runout of the mixing shaft and improve the operational stability of the entire shaft system.
[0009] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: This utility model is a high-strength through-shaft support for the outer shell of a twin-shaft mixer, including an outer shell end plate and a support body. The outer shell end plate is provided with a through-shaft opening, and the support body is installed at the through-shaft opening. The support body includes an inner sleeve, an outer sleeve, and two adapter blocks. Both the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve are T-shaped sleeves. The inner sleeve passes through the shaft opening and its end plate is welded and fixed to the inner side of the outer shell end plate. The outer sleeve is sleeved outside the inner sleeve and its end plate is welded and fixed to the outer side of the outer shell end plate. A base frame connecting beam is fixed to the periphery of the outer sleeve, and an inverted trapezoidal base block is fixed to the bottom end of the base frame connecting beam; The two transition blocks are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the base block. The top of the transition block is provided with a ramp that slides and connects with the inclined surface of the base block. The cross-section of the transition block is a trapezoidal structure.
[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a mixer base frame, with the bottom surfaces of the two transfer blocks welded and fixed to the top of the mixer base frame, and the tops of the two transfer blocks fixed to the base block by welding.
[0011] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the inner sleeve is consistent with the inner diameter of the shaft through-hole, and the inner cavity of the inner sleeve is a support mounting cavity.
[0012] Furthermore, the outer sleeve has several reinforcing ribs or an integrally formed trapezoidal tube structure between its peripheral side and end plate portion.
[0013] Furthermore, the end of the inner sleeve away from the end plate extends beyond the end of the outer sleeve away from the end plate, and the end face of the end of the inner sleeve away from the end plate is welded to the peripheral side of the outer sleeve.
[0014] Furthermore, the base frame connecting beam is an I-beam, a round bar, or a square steel structure.
[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. This utility model achieves direct connection between the inner and outer sleeves and the mixer base frame through the design of the base frame connecting beam, connecting the shaft support and the main frame into a whole. Most of the load is directly guided to the sturdy base frame, forming a shorter force transmission path and a more efficient structural bearing system. The additional support points provided by the connecting beam effectively reduce the radial runout of the mixing shaft and improve the operational stability of the entire shaft system.
[0016] 2. This utility model, through the design of the base block and the adapter block, achieves adaptive compensation for dimensional deviations through inclined surface fitting, allowing for a certain installation tolerance between the connecting beam and the base frame. By adjusting the position of the adapter block, the manufacturing deviation of the connecting beam length can be compensated, ensuring a tight fit between the connecting beam and the base frame, providing ideal conditions for subsequent welding connections, and solving the problem of mismatch in the assembly interface caused by component manufacturing tolerances and welding deformation.
[0017] 3. This utility model uses an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve as a support for the stirring shaft, and adopts a T-shaped double-layer sleeve system. This design forms a unique double load-bearing structure, which effectively disperses stress distribution. Compared with the traditional single sleeve, the T-shaped double-layer sleeve system has obvious mechanical advantages. The inner sleeve mainly bears the radial load and part of the bending moment from the stirring shaft, while the outer sleeve, in addition to bearing part of the radial load, mainly forms a bending resistance system together with the connecting beam. The double-layer sleeve design greatly improves the local rigidity and stability, enabling the entire shaft-penetrating position to withstand greater operating torque.
[0018] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description
