The swing feeder achieves uniform feeding during operation, mainly relying on its unique working principle and structural design.
The working principle of the swing feeder is to use the principle of the eccentric wheel mechanism to make the jaw plate do periodic reciprocating motion to continuously and evenly convey the material. Its original power relies on the motor to drive the eccentric wheel through the turbine reducer, and then the circular motion is converted into reciprocating motion after the connecting rod, driving the jaw plate to reciprocate. With the periodic swing of the jaw plate, the material can be fed continuously and evenly.
The eccentricity of the swing feeder can be adjusted. By adjusting the eccentricity of the eccentric pin on the eccentric wheel, the length of the stroke of the swing bottom plate can be changed. The length of the stroke directly affects the amount of each feeding, so the feeding amount can be adjusted in a large range. By finely adjusting the eccentricity, it can ensure that the swing feeder achieves uniform feeding during operation.
The number and frequency of swing feeder swings are also important factors affecting the uniformity of feeding. Generally speaking, the more swings, the better the continuity of feeding, but it may also lead to excessive feeding. Therefore, it is necessary to change the number of swings by adjusting the speed of the speed regulating motor according to actual production needs to achieve precise adjustment of the feeding amount. At the same time, the stability of the swing frequency also helps to maintain the uniformity of feeding.
The size and shape of the discharge port also have a great influence on the uniformity of feeding. The discharge port of the swing feeder is usually designed to be adjustable. The size of the discharge port is changed by adjusting the height of the discharge port gate to achieve precise adjustment of the feeding amount. Reasonable discharge port design can ensure that the material will neither be blocked nor overflowed during discharge, maintaining the continuity and uniformity of feeding.
The swing feeder is suitable for dry and non-agglomerated materials, such as ore, coal, etc. For such materials, the swing feeder can achieve uniform feeding well. However, for powdery materials, the swing feeder may easily cause blockage and cause powder to fly, affecting the uniformity of feeding and the cleanliness of the workplace. Therefore, when choosing a swing feeder, it is necessary to make comprehensive considerations based on the properties of the material.
The maintenance and care of the swing feeder is essential to maintain its uniform feeding performance. Regular inspection and replacement of worn parts, such as bearings and connecting rods, can ensure the normal operation of the swing feeder. At the same time, it is also very important to keep the inside and outside of the machine clean to avoid failures and blockages caused by dust and debris. In addition, regular lubrication and checking the amount of lubricating oil in the worm gear reducer are also key steps to ensure the normal operation of the swing feeder.
With the development of technology, more and more swing feeders are equipped with automatic control systems. These systems can monitor the operating status and feeding amount of the swing feeder in real time through sensors, and automatically adjust according to preset parameters. The application of automatic control systems can greatly improve the feeding accuracy and uniformity of the swing feeder and reduce the difficulty and error of manual operation.
The swing feeder achieves uniform feeding during operation through its unique working principle, adjustment of eccentricity, control of swing frequency and frequency, design of the discharge port, adaptability of materials, maintenance and maintenance, and application of automatic control systems.
