Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material storage and conveying systems, and in particular to a storage device and material storage and conveying system for a dyeing system. Background Technology

[0002] In the dyeing industry, salt powders are important dyeing auxiliaries, and their transportation and storage methods significantly impact dyeing quality and production efficiency. Existing dyeing systems mostly use conventional storage tank structures for storing powders, with a discharge port at the bottom for powder discharge, sometimes accompanied by simple valves for opening and closing. However, this traditional structure has the following drawbacks in practical use: existing storage devices cannot achieve rapid powder discharge. Powder in the storage tank is prone to slow discharge or even blockage of the discharge port due to accumulation, compaction, and high inter-particle friction, significantly affecting production efficiency. Furthermore, when the powder passes through the discharge port, it easily clumps due to environmental humidity, temperature changes, and its own gravity. Clumped powder not only further hinders subsequent discharge but also requires frequent manual cleaning, increasing labor and equipment maintenance costs; simultaneously, frequent shutdowns for cleaning severely affect production continuity and reduce overall production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a storage device for a dyeing system that can improve the discharge efficiency of powder and avoid clumping.

[0005] The discharge mechanism includes a discharge drive and a gate connected to the discharge drive. The discharge drive can drive the gate to move between the position of closing the first tube and the position of opening the first tube.

[0006] The discharge mechanism also includes a vibrator, which is located at the bottom of the storage tank.

[0007] As an improvement to the above solution, the bottom of the storage tank is also provided with a second tube body, which is located below the first tube body. There is a gap between the first tube body and the second tube body. The gate is located between the gap between the first tube body and the second tube body. The discharge drive can drive the gate to move between a position that blocks the communication between the first tube body and the second tube body and a position that allows the first tube body and the second tube body to communicate.

[0008] As an improvement to the above solution, the discharge mechanism further includes a first fixing plate and a second fixing plate. The first fixing plate is fixed to the bottom of the first tube body, and the second fixing plate is fixed to the top of the second tube body. The discharge drive can drive the gate to move between the first fixing plate and the second fixing plate.

[0009] As an improvement to the above solution, the material feeding drive includes a cylinder and a telescopic rod. One end of the telescopic rod is connected to the cylinder, and the other end of the telescopic rod is connected to the gate. The cylinder is fixedly connected to the second fixed plate.

[0010] As an improvement to the above solution, the storage device for the dyeing system further includes an air blowing mechanism. The bottom of the storage tank is provided with an agglomeration section. The longitudinal section of the agglomeration section has an inverted trapezoidal structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The air blowing mechanism is located in the agglomeration section and is used to blow air onto the powder in the agglomeration section.

[0011] The bottom of the storage tank is also equipped with a weighing mechanism, which is used to detect the weight change of the storage tank.

[0012] As an improvement to the above solution, the upper part of the storage tank is a feeding section, which is provided with a side feeding port and a side door. The side feeding port is located on the side of the feeding section, and the side door is symmetrically hinged to both sides of the side feeding port. The side door can open or close the side feeding port.

[0013] As an improvement to the above solution, a control mechanism is provided on the top of the storage tank. The control mechanism includes a telescopic drive component and a connecting block. The fixed end of the telescopic drive component is located on the top of the storage tank, the movable end of the telescopic drive component is hinged to one end of the connecting block, and the other end of the connecting block is fixed to the side door.

[0014] The upper part of the storage tank is also equipped with a filter screen, the height of which is lower than the height of the side door.

[0015] As an improvement to the above solution, the control mechanism further includes a support plate, which is located on the top of the storage tank, and the fixed end of the telescopic drive is rotatably connected to the support plate.

[0016] As an improvement to the above solution, the top of the storage tank is provided with a top plate, and a feeding channel is provided in the top plate near the side feed port.

[0018] Implementing this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] This utility model relates to a storage device for a dyeing system, comprising a storage tank and a discharging mechanism. The storage tank has a first tube at its bottom. The discharging mechanism includes a discharging drive and a gate connected to the discharging drive. The discharging drive moves the gate between a closed and open position of the first tube. When discharging is required, the discharging drive opens the gate, allowing the powder to fall smoothly. The discharging mechanism also includes a vibrator located at the bottom of the storage tank. This vibrator opens during discharging and vibrates the storage tank, facilitating the powder's fall and improving discharging efficiency. After discharging a specified weight of powder, the discharging drive closes the gate, isolating the storage tank from the outside environment. This prevents clumping caused by changes in ambient humidity and temperature at the external outlet, effectively avoiding clumping. Attached Figure Description

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following will describe this utility model in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is hereby declared that the terms "up," "down," "left," "right," "front," "back," "inner," and "outer," etc., appearing or about to appear in this document, are based solely on the accompanying drawings and are not intended to specifically limit this utility model.

[0025] See Figure 1 and Figure 2This utility model discloses a storage device for a dyeing system, used to store and release powder. It includes a storage tank 1 for storing the powder, with a first tube 2 at the bottom of the storage tank 1. The first tube 2 at the bottom of the storage tank 1 serves as a channel for powder discharge, connecting the interior of the storage tank 1 with an external conveying path. A discharge mechanism 4 is provided at the bottom of the storage tank 1 to assist in powder discharge. The discharge mechanism 4 includes a discharge drive 41 and a gate 42 pulverizedly connected to the discharge drive 41. The discharge drive 41 can drive the gate 42 to move between a closed position and an open position of the first tube 2. The discharge drive 41 can be a cylinder, linear motor, or other component with linear motion characteristics. The discharge drive 41 is pulverizedly connected to the gate 42 via mechanical transmission, such as linkage transmission or gear transmission, enabling the discharge drive 41 to precisely drive the gate 42 between the closed and open positions of the first tube 2. When production requires the discharge of powder, the discharge drive 41 is activated, driving the gate 42 to move to the position where the first tube 2 is opened. At this time, the powder can fall smoothly from the inside of the storage tank 1 through the first tube 2 by its own gravity.

[0026] Meanwhile, the discharge mechanism 4 also includes a vibrator 43, which is located at the bottom of the storage tank 1. When the powder begins to fall, the vibrator 43 is activated, and the high-frequency vibration acts on the storage tank 1, which can effectively disrupt the stable structure formed by the accumulation and compaction of the powder in the tank, reduce the friction between particles, and promote the powder to flow more smoothly into the first tube 2, thereby further improving the discharge efficiency.

[0027] After discharging the specified weight of powder, the discharge drive 41 actuates again, driving the gate 42 to move to the position of closing the first tube 2, thus isolating the storage tank 1 from the outside. In this way, changes in humidity and temperature in the external environment cannot affect the powder inside the storage tank 1 and at the first tube 2, effectively preventing powder agglomeration at the discharge port due to environmental factors. This overcomes the shortcomings of existing technologies where powder easily agglomerates at the discharge port, affecting subsequent discharge, and ensures the stability and continuity of the entire storage device's discharge.

[0028] The beneficial effects of this utility model embodiment are as follows:

[0029] This utility model embodiment of the storage device for a dyeing system includes a storage tank 1 and a discharge mechanism 4. The bottom of the storage tank 1 is provided with a first tube 2. The discharge mechanism 4 includes a discharge drive 41 and a gate 42 that is pulverizedly connected to the discharge drive 41. The discharge drive 41 can drive the gate 42 to move between a closed position and an open position of the first tube 2. When discharge is required, the discharge drive 41 can drive the gate 42 to open the first tube 2, so that the powder can fall smoothly. In addition, the discharge mechanism 4 also includes a vibrator 43. The vibrator 43 is provided at the bottom of the storage tank 1 and can be opened when the powder is discharged to generate vibration of the storage tank 1, which facilitates the falling of the powder and improves the discharge efficiency. After the specified weight of powder is discharged, the discharge drive 41 can drive the gate 42 to close the first tube 2, so that the storage tank 1 is isolated from the outside, which can prevent the external outlet from being affected by changes in environmental humidity and temperature and thus prevent clumping.

[0030] Specifically, see Figure 3 The bottom of the storage tank 1 is also provided with a second tube 3, which is located below the first tube 2. There is a gap between the first tube 2 and the second tube 3. The gap between the two provides space for the movement of the gate 42. The gate 42 is located between the first tube 2 and the second tube 3 and is in close cooperation with the discharge drive 41. The discharge drive 41 can drive the gate 42 to move between the position that blocks the communication between the first tube 2 and the second tube 3 and the position that allows the first tube 2 and the second tube 3 to communicate.

[0031] When the discharge drive 41 drives the gate 42 to move to the position that blocks the communication between the first pipe 2 and the second pipe 3, the gate 42 seals the outlet of the first pipe 2, temporarily sealing the powder in the storage tank 1 above the first pipe 2 and preventing the powder from continuing to be conveyed downwards. This blocking function not only precisely controls the discharge amount but also blocks external influences, preventing the powder from clumping at the outlet.

[0032] When the discharge drive 41 drives the gate 42 to a position where the first tube 2 and the second tube 3 are connected, the powder can smoothly fall from the first tube 2 into the second tube 3, and then be transferred by subsequent conveying equipment. This split structure, combined with the design of the gate 42, can effectively reduce powder residue at the discharge port. When the gate 42 moves, it can scrape the powder adhering to the wall of the discharge channel, avoiding the risk of agglomeration due to powder residue, further improving the anti-agglomeration effect, ensuring the smoothness and stability of the entire storage device's discharge, and further optimizing the performance of the storage device from a structural design perspective.

[0033] See Figure 3 The discharge mechanism 4 further includes a first fixing plate 44 and a second fixing plate 45. The first fixing plate 44 is fixed to the bottom of the first tube 2, and the second fixing plate 45 is fixed to the top of the second tube 3, forming a stable sliding track structure. The discharge drive component 41 can drive the gate 42 to move between the first fixing plate 44 and the second fixing plate 45. The first fixing plate 44 and the second fixing plate 45 not only provide stable support and guidance for the gate 42, ensuring that the gate 42 maintains horizontality and sealing during movement, but also further optimize the fitting accuracy between the gate 42 and the first tube 2 and the second tube 3 through their special installation positions.

[0034] When the discharge drive 41 drives the gate 42 to move to the position that blocks the communication between the first tube 2 and the second tube 3, the arrangement of the first fixing plate 44 and the second fixing plate 45 can effectively limit the displacement range of the gate 42, ensure the sealing performance between the gate 42 and the tube, prevent powder leakage from the gap, and further improve the accuracy of discharge control. During the process of the gate 42 moving from the open position to the closed position, the guiding effect of the first fixing plate 44 and the second fixing plate 45 can enhance the scraping force of the gate 42 on the tube wall, thoroughly remove the powder adhering to the tube wall, thereby more effectively avoiding the agglomeration phenomenon caused by powder residue, and further improving the anti-agglomeration capability and discharge efficiency of the entire storage device.

[0035] See Figure 3The discharge drive component 41 includes a cylinder 411 and a telescopic rod 412. A gate 42 is connected to the cylinder 411. One end of the telescopic rod 412 is connected to the cylinder 411, and the other end is connected to the gate 42. The cylinder 411 is fixedly connected to the second fixed plate 45. In practical applications, when powder needs to be discharged, the telescopic rod 412 extends, pushing the gate 42 to move, connecting the first pipe 2 and the second pipe 3, allowing the powder to pass smoothly. After discharge, the telescopic rod 412 retracts, pulling the gate 42 to move in the opposite direction, blocking the connection between the first pipe 2 and the second pipe 3, and promptly sealing the storage tank 1. When the telescopic rod 412 extends or retracts, the linear driving force it generates can drive the gate 42 to move.

[0036] In addition, a weighing mechanism is provided at the bottom of the storage tank 1, which is used to detect the weight change of the storage tank 1. The weighing mechanism is located between the storage tank 1 and the fixing frame that fixes the storage tank. By detecting the weight change of the storage tank 1, the amount of powder conveyed in the current batch can be determined, thereby controlling the discharge rate. Furthermore, it can also determine whether the material in the storage tank meets the next discharge requirement and make a replenishment call or alarm in advance, and can also make a replenishment call or alarm based on the minimum quantity.

[0037] The storage device for the dyeing system also includes an air blowing mechanism 5. The bottom of the storage tank 1 has an agglomeration section 11 with a cross-section that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, forming an inverted trapezoidal structure. This design allows the powder to naturally gather towards the center of the bottom under gravity, creating a good discharge guide. The air blowing mechanism 5 is located in the agglomeration section 11 and is used to blow air onto the powder within it. Its working principle is to change the force state of the powder and the interaction between particles by spraying airflow into the powder within the agglomeration section 11. When discharge is required, the air blowing mechanism 5 is activated, and the high-speed airflow acts on the powder within the agglomeration section 11. On the one hand, this breaks the arch structure formed by the accumulation of powder, eliminating the internal voids and promoting smooth powder descent; on the other hand, the airflow reduces the friction between powder particles, allowing the powder to flow more quickly towards the first tube 2 under the propulsion of the airflow and its own gravity, effectively increasing the discharge speed. In addition, the continuous blowing process can also disperse powder particles that may agglomerate due to factors such as humidity, preventing powder from clumping at the aggregation point 11, further ensuring the continuity and efficiency of the storage device's discharge, and providing strong support for the stable operation of the dyeing system.

[0038] The upper part of the storage tank 1 is the feeding section 12, which allows for replenishment of bagged powder. The feeding section 12 is equipped with a side inlet 121 and a side door 122. The side inlet 121 is located on the side of the feeding section 12, and its position facilitates the operation of the feeding chain to lift the bagged powder. The side door 122 is symmetrically hinged to both sides of the side inlet 121, and can be opened or closed. When it is necessary to feed material into the storage tank 1, the side doors 122 on both sides automatically open, and the feeding chain lifts the bagged powder into the designated position inside the storage tank 1 from the side without obstruction. Compared to the traditional top feeding method, side feeding eliminates the need to vertically lift the bagged powder to the top of the storage tank 1, reducing the difficulty of lifting and safety risks. It is especially suitable for transporting large bagged powders, improving the convenience and safety of feeding. After the bagged powder is hoisted to the designated location, the packaging of the bagged powder can be opened directly inside the storage tank 1, allowing the powder to fall naturally into the storage tank 1 for storage.

[0039] The storage tank 1 is equipped with a filter screen at its upper part. The height of the filter screen is lower than the height of the side door 122. The filter screen can filter the powder entering the storage tank 1, preventing large clumps of solid material from entering the storage tank 1 and avoiding blockages during subsequent discharge. The fact that the filter screen is lower than the side door 122 ensures that the powder can enter the side door 122 smoothly.

[0040] See Figure 4 The storage tank 1 is equipped with a control mechanism 6 at its top. The control mechanism 6 includes a telescopic drive component 61 and a connecting block 62. The fixed end of the telescopic drive component 61 is located at the top of the storage tank 1, and the movable end of the telescopic drive component 61 is hinged to one end of the connecting block 62. The other end of the connecting block 62 is fixed to the side door 122. When the telescopic drive component 61 is activated, its telescopic movement is transmitted to the side door 122 via the connecting block 62. When the telescopic drive component 61 extends, it drives the connecting block 62 to move outward, thereby pushing the side door 122 to rotate and open around the hinge point. When the telescopic drive component 61 retracts, it pulls the connecting block 62 to move inward, causing the side door 122 to rotate and close around the hinge point. Compared to the traditional manual opening and closing of the side door 122, this control mechanism 6 automates the opening and closing of the side door 122, reducing the labor intensity of operators and improving operational efficiency and accuracy.

[0041] The control mechanism 6 also includes a support plate 63, which is located on the top of the storage tank 1. The fixed end of the telescopic drive member 61 is rotatably connected to the support plate 63, so that the telescopic drive member 61 can adaptively adjust according to the angle change of the movable end when driving the side door 122.

[0042] The storage tank 1 has a top plate 13, and a feeding channel 131 is provided in the top plate 13 near the side feed port 121. The length direction of the feeding channel 131 is parallel to the movement direction of the feeding chain, providing a precise guiding path for the feeding chain to lift the bagged powder. This design allows the feeding chain to smoothly feed the bagged powder into the storage tank 1 along a fixed and reasonable trajectory, avoiding collisions and shaking caused by unclear lifting paths, and improving the safety and stability of the feeding operation. Two sealing brushes 14 are provided on both sides of the feeding channel 131, and are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the feeding channel 131. The outer edges of the two sealing brushes 14 flexibly abut against each other. The two sealing brushes 14, arranged opposite each other on both sides of the feeding channel 131 with their outer edges flexibly abutting against each other, form a tight sealing barrier while ensuring that the feeding chain can pass smoothly through the feeding channel 131. When the feeding chain hoists bagged powder into the storage tank 1 through the feeding channel 131, and the bag is opened inside the tank for discharging, the powder cannot fly out through the feeding channel 131 due to the presence of the sealing brush 14. The flexible material of the sealing brush 14 allows it to fit tightly against the feeding chain, and even if the chain surface has some unevenness, it can achieve a good sealing effect through its own deformation, effectively preventing the powder from escaping from the gaps in the feeding channel 131.

[0043] This utility model embodiment also discloses a material storage and conveying system (not shown in the drawings), including a storage device for a dyeing system as described above. The storage device for the dyeing system is provided with a storage tank 1 and a discharge mechanism 4. The bottom of the storage tank 1 is provided with a first tube 2. The discharge mechanism 4 includes a discharge drive 41 and a gate 42 that is pulverizedly connected to the discharge drive 41. The discharge drive 41 can drive the gate 42 to move between a closed position and an open position of the first tube 2. When discharge is required, the discharge drive 41 can drive the gate 42 to open the first tube 2, so that the powder can fall smoothly. Moreover, the discharge mechanism 4 also includes a vibrator 43. The vibrator 43 is provided at the bottom of the storage tank 1 and can be opened when the powder falls to generate vibration in the storage tank 1, which facilitates the falling of the powder and thus improves the discharge efficiency. After the specified weight of powder is discharged, the discharge drive 41 can drive the gate 42 to close the first tube 2, so that the storage tank 1 is isolated from the outside, which can prevent the external outlet from being affected by changes in environmental humidity and temperature and thus prevent clumping.

[0044] The above are preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the protection scope of this utility model.
