Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of powder storage mechanisms, and in particular to a hopper structure. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production, the storage and unloading of powdery materials (such as powders and granules) are common processes. However, these materials, especially raw materials with small particle size and high internal friction, are prone to bridging in the storage hopper. Bridging refers to the formation of a stable arched structure in the hopper, which leads to interruption or obstruction of unloading, seriously affecting production efficiency and equipment stability.

[0003] Currently, industry solutions to bridge-building problems include installing mechanical mixing devices or setting up vibration or arch-breaking equipment. These methods have limitations, such as affecting effective volume, structural complexity, and high failure rates. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a hopper structure that solves the technical problems of complex structure and high failure rate of existing hopper arch-breaking equipment.

[0005] This application discloses a hopper structure, including: The cylindrical body has an opening at the top and a discharge port at the bottom. A cylinder cover is provided on the opening, and the cylinder cover has a feed inlet; A material distribution component is installed at the bottom of the cylinder. The inner wall of the material distribution component is concave, and the top of the material distribution component is configured as a sharp end.

[0006] This application is equipped with a material separating component, which can break up the arch of the powder through the concave surface and the sharp end, making it easier to discharge the powder.

[0007] Based on the above technical solution, the present application can be further improved as follows: Furthermore, movable fitting parts are installed on both sides of the cylinder. The beneficial effect of this step is that the movable fitting parts facilitate the subsequent swinging of the cylinder at a certain angle.

[0008] Furthermore, the number of discharge ports is at least six. The advantage of this step is that multiple discharge ports can improve the discharge efficiency.

[0009] Furthermore, the material separating component has six grooves spaced apart along its circumference, and through holes are formed inside the grooves. Each through hole corresponds to a discharge port. The beneficial effect of this step is that the powder can be evenly separated by multiple grooves, thereby improving the uniformity of powder feeding.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner wall of the groove is a smooth surface, which facilitates the stable flow of materials.

[0011] Furthermore, the top of the sharp end is higher than the top of the groove, and the beneficial effect of this step is that it facilitates the breaking of arches in the powder.

[0012] Furthermore, the sides of the groove are arc-shaped.

[0013] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages: 1. This application provides a material distribution component at the bottom of the cylinder to distribute the powder, avoid bridging of the powder, and thus improve the smoothness of powder flow.

[0014] 2. This application designs the structure of the material separating component, which separates the material through its sharp top end, and then uses the remaining grooves to gather and discharge the powder, further avoiding powder accumulation. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the technical or scientific terms used in this application shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this utility model pertains.

[0018] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "top", "bottom", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0019] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "setup," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0020] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed description of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] Example: like Figure 1-4 As shown in the figure, this application discloses a hopper structure for discharging various powders. It is equipped with a material distribution component to eliminate the bridging phenomenon of powders and ensure that the material inside the hopper flows completely.

[0022] The specific structure of this application includes: The cylinder 1 has an opening 101 at the top and a discharge port 102 at the bottom. The cylinder 1 is preferably a conical cylinder with a conical bottom, so that the material enters from the opening 101 and is discharged from the discharge port 102 at the bottom. A cylinder cover 2 is provided on the opening 101, and a feed inlet 103 is provided on the cylinder cover 2. In use, the cylinder cover 2 can close the opening 101, and a feed pipe is connected to the feed inlet 103, so that the material flows into the cylinder from the feed pipe. When powder is fed to a certain extent, bridging occurs, which affects the powder feeding and eventually leads to material residue inside the cylinder 1, affecting subsequent use. This application provides a material distribution component 3, which can eliminate the above phenomenon. The material distribution component 3 is installed at the bottom of the cylinder and has a through hole to facilitate material passage. At the same time, the inner wall of the material distribution component 3 is concave, which is conducive to the flow of powder. Finally, the top of the material distribution component 3 is configured with a sharp end, which can break the powder accumulation phenomenon, thereby improving the powder feeding efficiency.

[0023] To facilitate assembly of this application, movable fitting parts 4 are installed on both sides of the cylinder 1. The movable fitting parts 4 are connected to the cylinder 1, for example, they can be a rotating shaft or a connecting rod, to complete the assembly with other components.

[0024] This application requires feeding multiple processing stations, therefore, the number of discharge ports 102 is at least six, so that it can cooperate with multiple processing stations to improve efficiency.

[0025] In order to ensure that the powder can flow smoothly out of the discharge port 102, such as Figure 4 As shown, the material distribution component 3 in this application has six grooves 301 spaced apart along its circumference. The grooves 301 have through holes 302 inside, and the through holes 302 correspond one-to-one with the discharge port 102. That is, after the powder is broken up at the sharp end, the material can flow into the six grooves 301 respectively, and then flow into the discharge port 102 through the through holes 302 to complete the feeding.

[0026] To ensure smooth powder feeding, the inner wall of the groove 301 in this application is a smooth surface, which facilitates the flow of powder.

[0027] The top of the sharp end is higher than the top of the groove 301, which facilitates the flow of powder.

[0028] The side of the groove 301 is arc-shaped.

[0029] Further explanation is provided regarding this application: The material distribution component 3 in this application is an integrally formed part, which is a centrally symmetrical part. This facilitates the uniform entry of powder into multiple grooves 301. The outer wall of the material distribution component 3 is closer to the inside, that is, the top dimension of the groove 301 is larger than the bottom dimension, forming a concave structure, which facilitates the aggregation of powder and then stable discharge.
