Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of construction and production technology, and in particular to an anti-sticking vibration device for cement silo level gauges. Background Technology

[0002] Cement silo level gauges are typically installed inside the silo and mainly include radar level gauges, weighted level gauges, capacitive / RF admittance level gauges, and ultrasonic level gauges. They are commonly used in the cement, ready-mixed concrete, and fly ash industries. Because cement is a dry, fine powder, and dust easily accumulates inside the silo, the level gauges and silo walls are prone to material adhesion due to prolonged contact with cement, leading to inaccurate level measurement and impacting production scheduling and material management. The traditional solution is to manually tap around the level gauge, which is inefficient, labor-intensive, and produces uneven vibration (potentially affecting equipment lifespan), failing to meet the demands of continuous production.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a highly automated facility or equipment that can replace manual hammering, reduce manual operation, lower labor intensity, adapt to continuous production scenarios, and not affect the service life of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an anti-sticking vibration device for cement silo level gauges. The anti-sticking effect is stable: the vibration force is uniform and controllable, avoiding equipment damage or incomplete anti-sticking caused by uneven manual striking force. Furthermore, the installation position and number of vibrators can be adjusted according to different level gauge models, making it suitable for retrofitting most cement silo level gauges. It is low-cost and easy to maintain.

[0005] This utility model discloses an anti-sticking vibration device for a cement silo level gauge, characterized in that it includes an air inlet assembly and a vibration assembly connected by a pipeline. The air inlet assembly introduces gas for generating vibration; the vibration assembly receives the gas for generating vibration to generate vibration and vibrate off the adhesive material on the cement silo level gauge.

[0006] Furthermore, the intake assembly includes a safety control valve group, which includes a first shut-off valve and a second shut-off valve. The first shut-off valve normally opens and closes to allow gas to pass through the vibration assembly, while the second shut-off valve serves as a safety redundancy and can be manually shut off during maintenance.

[0007] Furthermore, the air intake assembly also includes a filter pressure reducing valve, which can filter the gas blown in by the air compressor and adjust the gas to a suitable pressure.

[0008] Furthermore, the vibration assembly includes a striking seat, and the vibration generated by the vibration assembly can be transmitted to the ash hopper by the striking seat.

[0009] Furthermore, the vibration assembly also includes a pneumatic hammer, one end of which is provided with a base and the other end is connected to a safety control valve assembly. The base is provided with several bolt holes that cooperate with the hammer seat.

[0010] Furthermore, the filter pressure reducing valve is connected to an air compressor at one end via a pipeline and to a safety control valve group at the other end; one end of the second shut-off valve in the safety control valve group is connected to the filter pressure reducing valve, and the other end is sequentially connected to the first shut-off valve; the first shut-off valve is connected to a pneumatic hammer.

[0011] Furthermore, the striking seat is configured as a "T"-shaped structure with several bolt holes on the upper platform to cooperate with the base, and the lower boss is welded and fixed to the ash hopper.

[0012] Furthermore, the first shut-off valve can be selected as a multi-channel solenoid valve, and multiple vibration components can be connected simultaneously to improve the vibration effect.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model: This utility model provides an anti-sticking vibration device for cement silo level gauges. It uses a pneumatic hammer to achieve uniform and controllable vibration force, avoiding equipment damage or incomplete anti-sticking problems caused by uneven manual hammering.

[0014] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0015] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model;

[0016] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the base of this utility model;

[0017] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the striking base of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0018] like Figures 1 to 3As shown in this embodiment, a cement silo level gauge anti-sticking vibration device is characterized by: including an air inlet assembly 1 and a vibration assembly 2 connected by a pipeline, which can be arranged according to the actual working conditions on site. The air inlet assembly 1 should be installed in a position that is convenient for workers to operate, rather than near the vibration assembly 2. The air inlet assembly 1 can control and filter the gas entering the vibration device 2. The site environment where the device is used is complex with a lot of dust and particulate matter. The air blowing device is a large air compressor. To prevent impurities from entering the inlet, a filter pressure reducing valve 102 is provided to ensure the purity of the gas. The vibration assembly 2 receives the gas and generates vibration, which vibrates and removes the adhesive on the cement silo level gauge. The vibration assembly 2 used can be an electric vibration method or a pneumatic vibration method, etc. In this embodiment, a pneumatic vibration device is selected according to the on-site equipment.

[0019] In this embodiment, the air intake assembly 1 includes a safety control valve group 101 and a filter pressure reducing valve 102. The safety control valve group includes a first shut-off valve 1011 and a second shut-off valve 1012. The first shut-off valve 1011 can be a multi-channel solenoid valve that is easy to control, such as a two-position three-way solenoid valve, etc. It is used for normal control and normally opens and closes to allow gas to pass through the vibration assembly 2. The second shut-off valve 1012 is a normally open valve and can be a manually controlled valve such as a slide valve. When the whole device has a problem, the valve port can be manually closed, and it will work together with the first shut-off valve 1011 to form a double seal, ensuring that no excess gas will pass through during maintenance and affect on-site safety, or to supplement gas when the first shut-off valve 1011 fails. The first shut-off valve 1011 used is a normally used open and close valve, which is set in a place that can be safely reached and easily operated by personnel. During use, the operation of the entire system is mainly controlled by the first shut-off valve 1011.

[0020] In this embodiment, the filter pressure reducing valve 102 can filter the gas blown in by the air compressor. The air compressor used on site generates a gas pressure of about 1 MPa, which exceeds the normal working air pressure of the pneumatic hammer 201, which is between 0.1 MPa and 0.7 MPa. The valve can effectively control the incoming gas pressure to a suitable pressure and stabilize the working pressure. It can also avoid solid particulate impurities in the compressed air due to the dusty environment on site. These impurities will act like abrasives and quickly wear down the precision piston and cylinder inside the hammer, leading to air leakage and jamming. The filter pressure reducing valve 102 is not directly connected to the air compressor. It is connected by an air pipe to facilitate the reasonable arrangement of the valve.

[0021] In this embodiment, the vibration component 2 includes a pneumatic hammer 201 and a striking seat 202. The striking seat can transmit the vibration generated by the pneumatic hammer 201 to the ash hopper. When the pneumatic hammer is working, it can generate vibration points at a high frequency and stably, which is different from the problem of scattered striking points and low striking frequency of manual striking. This improves the efficiency of internal mortar detachment. In conjunction with the striking seat 202, the striking surface is increased, the striking point pressure is reduced, and the vibration influence area is increased.

[0022] In this embodiment, the filter pressure reducing valve 102 is connected to an air compressor at one end via a pipeline and to a safety control valve group 101 at the other end. The safety control valve group 101 contains a second shut-off valve 1012 and a first shut-off valve 1011 connected sequentially. The second shut-off valve 1012 is connected to the filter pressure reducing valve 102 at one end via a pipeline and to the first shut-off valve 1011 at the other end. The other end of the first shut-off valve 1011 is connected to a pneumatic hammer 201 via a pipeline. The compressed gas passes through the filter pressure reducing valve 102, the safety control valve group 101, and finally to the pneumatic hammer 201. The use of pipelines facilitates reasonable positional control between the various control valves.

[0023] In this embodiment, the pneumatic hammer 201 has a base 2022 at one end and is connected to the safety control valve group 101 at the other end. The base 2022 is welded to the bottom of the pneumatic hammer 201 and has several bolt holes around it to cooperate with the hammer seat 2021. The bolt connection allows for quick disassembly and assembly, enabling flexible installation or recycling when not in use without affecting other construction operations.

[0024] In this embodiment, the striking seat 2021 is configured as a "T" shaped structure. The upper platform 2021a is provided with several bolt holes to cooperate with the base 2022, and the lower boss 2021b is welded and fixed to the ash hopper. A single cement silo level gauge ash hopper can be equipped with multiple striking seats 2021 to cooperate with a pneumatic striking hammer 201 as needed to achieve targeted and rapid striking.

[0025] In this embodiment, the first shut-off valve can be a multi-channel solenoid valve, which can be connected to multiple vibration components to selectively activate vibration at corresponding positions to improve energy efficiency; alternatively, multiple cement silo level gauge anti-sticking vibration devices can be installed on the same cement silo level gauge hopper to ensure overall impact efficiency while reducing the impact on equipment lifespan.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
