Abstract

A mechanical rocker-arm type vertical feeding cushioning device, consisting of two identical cushioning units and a box body ( 7 ). The two cushioning units are respectively arranged with a certain height difference on the inner side of the box body ( 7 ). Each cushioning unit consists of a cushioning mechanism and a fixing hinge mechanism. The cushioning mechanism is composed of a cushioning plate ( 1 ), a spring ( 5 ) and a balance weight ( 6 ). The fixing hinge mechanism is composed of a hinge plate ( 2 ), a right angle circular rod ( 3 ) and an elastic limiting device ( 4 ). The cushioning plate ( 1 ) is fixed to the hinge plate ( 2 ) via connection holes and using bolts. The hinge plate ( 2 ) is welded to the right angle circular rod ( 3 ). The elastic limiting device ( 4 ) consists of two elastic limiting plates and a hollow iron ring in a welded manner. The right angle circular rod ( 3 ) is connected to the elastic limiting device ( 4 ) in a sleeved manner via the hollow iron ring of the elastic limiting device ( 4 ). An upper end of the spring ( 5 ) is connected to the right angle circular rod ( 3 ), and the balance weight ( 6 ) is suspended at a lower end of the spring ( 5 ). Material is fed to the cushioning plates via a feeding pipe, and falls down after being cushioned twice by the cushioning plates ( 1 ). The cushioning device repeatedly cushions and recovers under the joint effect of the cushioning plates ( 1 ) and the cushioning balances ( 6 ).

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A mechanical rocker arm-type vertical feeding cushioning device, comprising a box body ( 7 ), and two cushioning units disposed in an upper layer and a lower layer in a staggered manner on the box body ( 7 ), each cushioning units consists a cushioning mechanism and a fixing hinge mechanism respectively, the cushioning mechanism comprises a cushioning plate ( 1 ), a spring ( 5 ), and a balance weight ( 6 ), the fixing hinge mechanism comprises a right-angle round rod ( 3 ) and a hinge plate ( 2 ) welded to the right-angle round rod ( 3 ), and an elastic limiting device ( 4 ) is disposed on the two sides of the hinge plate ( 2 ), wherein, the elastic limiting device ( 4 ) comprises two elastic limiting plates and a hollow iron hoop, the elastic limiting plates are fixed to the upper surface and lower surface of the hollow iron hoop, the right-angle round rod ( 3 ) is plug-in mounted in the hollow iron hoop of the elastic limiting devices ( 4 ), the cushioning plate ( 1 ) is fixed to the hinge plate ( 2 ) and swings up and down along with the hinge plate ( 2 ), the upper end of the spring ( 5 ) is connected to the right-angle round rod ( 3 ) and the lower end of the spring ( 5 ) hangs the balance weight ( 6 ).

2. The mechanical rocker arm-type vertical feeding cushioning device according to claim 1 , wherein: in the elastic limiting devices ( 4 ), the included angle between the two elastic limiting plates is equal to the included angle between the edge of the spring ( 5 ) hung outside of the box body ( 7 ) and the horizontal plane when the right-angle round rod ( 3 ) is in its natural state.

3. The mechanical rocker arm-type vertical feeding cushioning device according to claim 1 , wherein: the balance weight ( 6 ) is a homogeneous iron block, the weight of which is determined according to the feeding height; the initial weight of the balance weight ( 6 ) is set to 25 kg, the weight of the balance weight ( 6 ) increases by 1 kg if the feeding height increases by 10 m, and the maximum weight of the balance weight ( 6 ) does not exceed 125 kg.

4. The mechanical rocker arm-type vertical feeding cushioning device according to claim 1 , wherein: the spacing between the two cushioning units disposed in an upper layer and a lower layer in a staggered manner is 300-500 mm; the projecting of the two cushioning plates ( 1 ) in the horizontal direction forms an overlap with each one of the cushioning plates ( 1 ) including an overlap segment, wherein each of the overlap segments has an area ⅕-¼ of the area of one of the cushioning plates ( 1 ).
