Cut powder hopper

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To certainly prevent the dripping of an oil liquid and the scattering of a cut powder at the time of the trouble of a filter, by mounting a mechanism wherein a drip receiving trough is reversed up and down by the opening and closing of a hopper door. CONSTITUTION:In a hopper 1, a drip receiving trough 3 having a V-shape cross- section is provided directly under a hopper gate 10 so as to be freely revolvable around the rotary shaft 9 of a bracket 6 and, further, the auxiliary arm 5 fixed with respect to the drip receiving trough 3 at a definite angle is provided in a state freely revolvable around the revolving shaft 8 at the lower end part of a main arm 4 and, when hopper doors 2a, 2b are in a closed state, the drip receiving trough 3 is positioned directly under the hopper gate 10 to receive a cut powder and, when the cut powder is allowed to fall in a main body 11, the drip receiving trough 3 is reversed up and down corresponding to the opening degreed of a hopper gate 2a and the content in the trough 3 is also simultaneously allowed to fall. Therefore, even when the cut powder considerably containing an oil liquid is supplied to the hopper at the time of trouble, the cut powder or oil liquid falling from the hopper gate can be certainly accumulated on the drip receiving trough.
