The thickness adjusting ram of the swinging funnel adopts the on-site adjusting structure, and the thickness of the paving material can be adjusted within the range of 20 ~ 100mm.

The funnel is supported at an eccentric position with its center of gravity. When the funnel swings forward occasionally, the funnel can automatically return to its original position due to the action of eccentricity.

In order to help the hopper reset, a counterweight is also set. If there is foreign matter on the trolley (sinter or broken grate), the swinging bucket will swing towards the forward direction of the trolley with the support shaft as the center. After the foreign matter passes through, the counterweight can reset the hopper.

Mixture Feeding Device

The star wheel web plate is a welded assembly, which is assembled on the through shaft through the hook wedge key. The tooth plate adopts the star gear plate at the tail of sintering machine with modified tooth arc curve to reduce trolley arching. The tooth plate is connected to the star wheel web plate one by one with hinged bolts.

The mobile frame is composed of upper and lower frames, side plates and bends. It is suspended on the frame at the tail through the support of the left and right idler rollers.
