Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material storage and conveying equipment technology, and in particular to an anti-blocking mechanism for finished material discharge bins. Background Technology
[0002] The raw material for edible hydrolyzed protein peptide powder comes from qualified livestock and poultry blood. It appears as a white or light yellow powder and is easily soluble in water. Due to its unique enzymatic directional hydrolysis production process, the product has a small molecular weight (more than 90% below 1500 Daltons) and high bioactivity. As a food ingredient, it can be widely used in protein supplements for the middle-aged and elderly, sports drinks, functional beverages, postoperative recovery nutrition products, enteral nutrition preparations, hangover remedies and liver protection products, weight loss aids, nutritional supplements for people with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar, as well as in facial masks, eye creams, and cosmetic lotions and skincare products.
[0003] An existing anti-clogging device for finished product discharge hoppers involves temporarily storing the finished product in an inverted cone-shaped discharge hopper. When there is a need to ship, the valve at the bottom of the discharge hopper is opened for discharge. However, because the finished product is powder and moisture is not completely removed, a residue buildup occurs on the inner wall of the hopper at the bottom where the diameter is small. If not cleaned for a long time, this can easily cause blockage at the bottom of the discharge hopper, affecting the discharge. Furthermore, some anti-clogging mechanisms require frequent manual intervention, such as manually observing the residue buildup inside the discharge hopper, manually activating the anti-clogging equipment, and manually adjusting the anti-clogging parameters. During production, manual operation is not only inefficient but also prone to human error, leading to untimely or excessive anti-clogging, which affects the continuity and stability of production. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a finished material discharge hopper anti-blocking mechanism, which features an ultrasonic sensor added to the observation port to detect the adhesion of powder to the hopper walls, and an installed pneumatic hammer to clean the powder adhering to the walls when necessary.
[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a finished material discharge bin anti-blocking mechanism, including a discharge bin, the bottom of which has two openings in two directions, and observation ports welded to the outside of the two openings. The two observation ports allow workers to observe the wall-hanging situation in different directions inside the discharge bin. Ultrasonic sensors are installed inside the two observation ports, and a pneumatic hammer is installed at a position slightly lower than the observation holes. When wall-hanging occurs and cleaning is required, the pneumatic hammer is activated.
[0006] A further feature of this invention is that a first observation port that can be opened and closed is welded and installed on the upper side, and a pipe is welded and installed on the lower side, with a second observation port installed at the end of the pipe.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy for ultrasonic sensors to detect the distance between themselves and the inner wall of the discharge hopper, thereby judging the wall adhesion and blockage of the inner wall of the discharge hopper.
[0008] A further feature of this invention is that a rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner top wall of the discharge hopper, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating rod, and stirring teeth are fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting rod.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the material discharge inside the discharge hopper can be made smoother, less prone to blockage, and less likely to affect the normal material discharge.
[0010] A further feature of this invention is that a motor is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge hopper, and the output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the rotating rod.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the material discharge inside the discharge hopper can be made smoother, less prone to blockage, and less likely to affect the normal material discharge.
[0012] A further feature of this invention is that a feeding hopper is provided at the top of the discharge bin, and a rotating plate is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the feeding hopper.
[0013] A further feature of this invention is that the number of rotating plates is two and they are symmetrically distributed. A spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of each of the two rotating plates, and the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the discharge bin at the end away from the rotating plate.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy for materials to enter the discharge bin through the rotating plate, and prevent materials from escaping from the discharge port.
[0015] A further feature of this invention is that a table is provided on the outside of the discharge hopper, and a control panel is fixedly connected to the top of the table.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the control panel facilitates the control of the stirring teeth's stirring and unblocking of materials, the pneumatic hammer's striking of the discharge hopper, and the processing of ultrasonic sensor detection signals.
[0017] A further feature of this invention is that an electronic valve is installed at the bottom of the discharge hopper, and the electronic valve is located on the underside of the table body.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy to control the opening of the electronic valve, so that the material in the discharge bin is discharged from the discharge port at the bottom of the discharge bin.
[0019] A further feature of this invention is that fasteners are movably connected to the outer sides of both the first and second observation ports, and a threaded rod is threadedly connected to the inner side of the fasteners, with a knob fixedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy to fix the fasteners to the outside of the first and second observation ports, preventing the two observation ports from being opened at will and affecting the normal discharge of materials inside the discharge hopper.
[0021] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model welds an observation port and a pneumatic hammer to the bottom of the discharge hopper. An ultrasonic sensor is installed inside the observation port, which can effectively detect the wall adhesion and blockage of the discharge hopper. The pneumatic hammer is controlled by the control panel to strike the discharge hopper, which can effectively deal with the wall adhesion and blockage of the discharge hopper and maintain the normal discharge of edible hydrolyzed protein peptide powder.

Detailed Implementation
[0030] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to specific embodiments. 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.
[0031] Specifically, refer to Figure 1-6 A finished material discharge hopper anti-clogging mechanism includes a discharge hopper 1. The bottom of the discharge hopper 1 has two openings 2 in different directions. Observation ports are welded to the outside of the two openings 2. The two observation ports allow workers to observe the wall adhesion in different directions inside the discharge hopper. Ultrasonic sensors 3 are installed inside the two observation ports. A pneumatic hammer 4 is installed slightly below the observation port. When wall adhesion occurs and cleaning is required, the pneumatic hammer 4 is activated. The ultrasonic sensor 3 is model UTM30-21131.
[0032] First, the material enters the discharge hopper 1 through the feed hopper 12 and then flows out through the bottom of the discharge hopper 1. When there is wall hanging or blockage on the inner wall of the discharge hopper 1, the ultrasonic sensor 3 detects that the distance between the inner wall of the discharge hopper 1 and itself is less than a set value, and thus transmits the signal to the control panel 16. The control panel 16 controls the start of the pneumatic hammer 4 to knock on the discharge hopper 1, thereby clearing the wall hanging and blockage on the inner wall of the discharge hopper 1, until the ultrasonic sensor 3 detects that the distance between the inner wall of the discharge hopper 1 and itself is within the set value range, and thus transmits the signal to the control panel 16 again, and the control panel 16 controls the shut-off of the pneumatic hammer 4.
[0033] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The upper opening 2 is welded to install the first observation port 5, which can be opened and closed. The lower opening 2 is welded to install the pipe 6, and the second observation port 7 is installed at the end of the pipe 6.
[0034] In a specific implementation, the first observation port 5 and the second observation port 7 facilitate the ultrasonic sensor 3 inside the discharge bin 1 to detect the distance between itself and the inner wall, thereby determining the wall adhesion and blockage of the inner wall of the discharge bin 1.
[0035] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 The inner top wall of the discharge hopper 1 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 8, the bottom of the rotating rod 8 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 9, and the outer side of the connecting rod 9 is fixedly connected to a stirring tooth 10.
[0036] In a specific implementation, the rotating rod 8 drives the connecting rod 9 to rotate inside the discharge bin 1, thereby driving the stirring teeth 10 to rotate, so that the material inside the discharge bin 1 can be discharged more smoothly and is less likely to be blocked, thus affecting the normal discharge of the material.
[0037] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 A motor 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge hopper 1, and the output shaft of the motor 11 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 8.
[0038] In a specific implementation, the motor 11 is started, and the motor 11 drives the rotating rod 8 to rotate. The rotating rod 8 drives the connecting rod 9 to rotate inside the discharge bin 1, thereby driving the stirring teeth 10 to rotate. This makes the material discharge inside the discharge bin 1 smoother and less prone to blockage, thus affecting the normal material discharge.
[0039] Specifically, refer to Figure 6 The top of the discharge hopper 1 is provided with a feeding hopper 12, and the inner wall of the feeding hopper 12 is rotatably connected with a rotating plate 13.
[0040] In a specific implementation, the finished material enters the discharge bin 1 through the feeding hopper 12, while the rotating plate 13 rotates downwards. After the material enters the discharge bin 1, the rotating plate 13 closes again, thereby preventing the material from escaping from the discharge port.
[0041] Specifically, refer to Figure 6 There are two rotating plates 13, which are symmetrically distributed. A spring 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of each rotating plate 13. The end of the spring 14 away from the rotating plate 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the discharge bin 1.
[0042] In a specific implementation, when the material enters the feed hopper 12, the rotating plate 13 rotates downward due to the gravity of the material. At this time, the spring 14 is compressed. After the material enters the discharge hopper 1, the rotating plate 13 rotates upward again to return to its original position. At this time, the spring 14 returns to its original position to prevent the material from escaping from the discharge port.
[0043] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 A table 15 is provided on the outside of the discharge hopper 1, and a control panel 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the table 15.
[0044] In a specific implementation, the control panel 16 facilitates the control of the stirring teeth 10 to stir and clear the material, the pneumatic hammer 4 to strike the discharge hopper 1, and the processing of the detection signals from the ultrasonic sensor 3.
[0045] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 An electronic valve 17 is installed at the bottom of the discharge hopper 1, and the electronic valve 17 is located on the underside of the table body 15.
[0046] In a specific implementation, the control panel 16 controls the opening of the electronic valve 17, thereby discharging the material in the discharge bin 1 from the discharge port at the bottom of the discharge bin 1.
[0047] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 Fasteners 18 are movably connected to the outer sides of both the first observation port 5 and the second observation port 7. A threaded rod 19 is threadedly connected to the inside of the fastener 18. A knob is fixedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod 19. One end of the inside of the fastener 18 is slidably connected to the threaded rod 19, and the other end of the inside of the fastener 18 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod 19.
[0048] In a specific implementation, by rotating the knob, the threaded rod 19 is rotated, causing one end of the fastener 18 to move closer to the other end, thereby fixing the fastener 18 to the outside of the first observation port 5 and the second observation port 7, preventing the two observation ports from opening arbitrarily and affecting the normal discharge of materials inside the discharge hopper 1.
[0049] The above describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. The standard parts used in this utility model can all be purchased from the market, and the irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts, and equipment all adopt conventional models in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.
[0050] The control method of this utility model is automatic control through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art. The power supply is also common knowledge in the field. Since this utility model is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail.
