The mixing machine consists of rotor, machine body, machine housing, speed reducer, upper cover, liquid application device, access doors, etc. The rotor is installed on the machine body through the two bearings (with pedestal) at the shaft ends. It is driven by the output hollow shaft of the reducing motor. A discharge gate is installed at the bottom of machine housing, whose opening or closing is controlled by pneumatic cylinders according to the mixing cycle. The access doors for cleaning and maintenance are on the upper part of machine housing. There are two feeding inlets on the top cover of the mixer for adding major materials and additives separately. The air-return mechanism is installed between top cover and the machine bottom.
① Rotor
The rotor on the paddle mixer consists of a main shaft, four paddle assemblies (each of which is made up by a group of big and small paddles of different angles and welded to the stay bar and bar bottom cover ), end covers and stainless steel sheets.
② Bearing and shaft end seal
The rotor is supported and installed on the machine body through the bearings at the shaft ends, and the seal at shaft ends is guaranteed by transparent cover, seal packing as well as gland.
③ Discharge gates and the control
The discharge gate of the feed mixer is connected to the shaft of discharge gate by the gate support arm, while the driven rocking lever (rocker arm) is connected to the shaft of discharge gate by key. The cylinder hinge is connected to the driving rocking lever which, on the other hand, is connected to the driven rocking lever through a connecting rod. When opening the gate, the piston of cylinder is retracted to drive the driving rocking lever rotate counterclockwise, while the driving rocking lever drive the driven rocking lever rotate clockwise through the connecting rod, so as to open the discharge gate. When closing the gate, the piston of cylinder is pushed to drive the driving rocking lever rotate clockwise, then the driven rocking lever rotate counterclockwise, till the three holes that on the driving rocking lever, the connecting rod and the drives rocking lever sight alignment, the gate is closed.
④ Sealing of discharge gate
There are sealing members surrounding the discharge gate frame at lower part of the housing. When the gate is closed tightly, the side of the discharge gate clings tightly to the silica strip on the sealing member, and the discharge gate is sealed by the compact silica strip to prevent material in the mixer from leakage.
⑤ Liquid application device (if optioned)
The liquid application system is installed above the top cover and consists of pipe and nozzles etc. Several nozzles are evenly distributed on the pipe. The liquid application system can be able to move up and down for easily cleaning and replacing nozzles. Muyang mixing machines are all with full equipments and the standard application amount is 2% for one pipe, please note in the contract if you have different requirement. When adopting the atomizing spraying nozzle, liquid will be sprayed out from nozzle in a segment shape through the compound effect of atomization and compressed air.
⑥ Protection device
Interlock safety device should be installed on the cleaning gate to ensure the motor cannot be started when the cleaning gate is opened, so as to prevent accident during working.
⑦ Air-sac blowing device (if selected)
Whether to switch on/off the nozzles for supplying compressed air on the pipeline is controlled by two pulse solenoid valve which are controlled by pulse controller. The compressed air spraying onto the rotor and trough continuously through the series nozzle on the pipeline inner the chamber, which will clean material residues away the mixer so as to minimize material residues in the mixer.
⑧ Air-return mechanism
The air-return mechanism is a filter pocket with a skeleton that used to connect the mixing chamber with ambient air. When feeding material into the mixer, the compressed air in the mixing chamber is released through the air-return mechanism into ambient air and balance the pressure in the chamber; when discharging, air pressure in the chamber is decreased, and ambient air is induced into the mixing chamber, and balances the pressure in there as well. Generally, it is unnecessary for the feeding machine to install the air-return mechanism if the opening on the top cover is connected to the exhausted system during feed mill installation.
