TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of PTA equipment, and in particular to an automatic powder sampling machine. BACKGROUND
[0002] After PTA is dried to form finished powder, sampling analysis needs to be performed before entering the finished material bin to detect whether various indexes of the finished PTA powder are qualified. Since sampling is performed manually, it is difficult to ensure appropriate sampling amount during the sampling process, and the sampled powder is also easily polluted by the external environment, so the sampled sample has poor representativeness. Manual cost is high, and efficiency is low. In addition, during the sampling process, the discharge pipeline is easily blocked, and improper operation easily causes dust emission, which pollutes the environment.
[0003] The current conventional method is to set a manual switch discharge ball valve on the PTA discharge pipeline, and a union joint is arranged after the switch ball valve. A sealed sampling container is used by a sampling personnel to connect the union joint, and then the ball valve is opened to perform sampling. After a certain sampling time, the ball valve is closed. The sampling amount is entirely dependent on experience and feeling. Since there is a certain dead zone between the ball valve and the flange connection, the sampled sample is often the sample of the previous time period. Therefore, the on-site operator often needs to discharge a little old material first, and then can take a representative sample, which is very labor-intensive. During the sampling process, the sampling site powder is often scattered, the discharged powder product is also wasted to a certain extent, and the environment is polluted.
[0004] For example, a new automatic sampling device in Chinese utility model patent CN202121918218.7 includes a powder conveying pipeline and a sampling pipe. A remote control electromagnetic valve and a check valve are arranged on the sampling pipe. A baffle is arranged on one side of the sampling pipe. A settling chamber is arranged below the baffle. The settling chamber is connected to a discharge port through a ball valve.

[0008] In the above scheme, the sampling mechanism and the main pipeline are in sealed connection, the driving mechanism drives the sampling mechanism to move, when sampling, the sampling mechanism enters the main pipeline, samples the powder, and conveys the powder to the hopper, and after sampling is completed, the sampling mechanism exits the main pipeline, so that the normal conveying of the powder in the main pipeline is ensured, and the main pipeline is not prone to blockage.
[0009] The sampling mechanism is structured as follows: a branch flange is arranged on the main pipeline and communicated with the inside of the main pipeline, the supporting frame is fixed on the branch flange, a transmission support is slidably connected in the supporting frame, a shell pipe is arranged on the transmission support, the two ends of the shell pipe are closed, a spiral blade assembly is arranged in the shell pipe, the shaft body of the spiral blade assembly extends outward from the center of the end of the shell pipe to the transmission support, the shell pipe away from the transmission support extends into the inside of the branch flange, the shell pipe and the inner wall of the branch flange are in sealed connection and are slidably connected in the axial direction, a sampling head is arranged at the end of the shell pipe in the inside of the branch flange, a sampling port is arranged on the circumferential surface of the end of the shell pipe in the inside of the branch flange, a motor is arranged on the transmission support and in transmission connection between the shaft body of the spiral blade assembly in the transmission support and the motor, and the hopper is communicated with the shell pipe through a pipeline.
[0010] The shell pipe and the branch flange of the sampling mechanism are in sealed connection, so that the shell pipe is in a sealed state after moving into the main pipeline, the sampling head can loosen the powder in the main pipeline, the powder enters the sampling port after the sampling port moves into the main pipeline, in the rotating process of the spiral blade assembly, the powder is conveyed to the joint of the shell pipe and the hopper and falls into the hopper, and the closed sampling is realized; after sampling is completed, the driving mechanism draws out the shell pipe, so that the sampling head, the sampling port and the like are all located in the inside of the branch flange, so that no interference is caused to the inside of the main pipeline, and the conveying of the powder in the main pipeline is normal.

The structure can make the movement direction of the shell pipe more stable, so that the sealing between the shell pipe and the branch flange is more reliable.
[0012] As optimization, the driving mechanism comprises a piston pneumatic actuator and a connecting piece, the piston pneumatic actuator is provided with a push rod, the push rod is connected with the transmission support through the connecting piece, and the axial direction of the push rod is parallel to the axial direction of the shell pipe. The piston pneumatic actuator can be a cylinder, the push rod is a component of the cylinder, and of course, a gas circuit control system is further included for controlling the movement state of the piston pneumatic actuator, i.e. moving, stopping, moving position, etc. of the push rod. The gas circuit control system can generally be remote control.
[0013] As optimization, the hopper is a closed mixing hopper, the closed mixing hopper is fixed on the main pipeline through a cable-stayed support, the closed mixing hopper is communicated with the shell pipe through a discharge hose, and a discharge valve is arranged at the bottom of the closed mixing hopper; and a pressure gauge is arranged on the closed mixing hopper. The closed mixing hopper has a hollow inverted cone structure, is fixed on the main pipeline, and is connected with the shell pipe through the discharge hose, so that the movement of the shell pipe does not interfere with the closed mixing hopper, and the shell pipe can be moved multiple times to the closed mixing hopper, and the sampling of the powder is more uniform and reliable.
[0014] As optimization, a back blowing mechanism is arranged on the sampling mechanism, the back blowing mechanism comprises a blowing electromagnetic valve, a pressure reducing valve and a blowing hose, one end of the blowing hose is connected to the shell pipe away from the main pipeline, the other end of the blowing hose is used for connecting a high-pressure gas source, and the pressure reducing valve and the blowing electromagnetic valve are arranged on the blowing hose. Before each sampling, during the movement of the shell pipe and the entry of the sampling port into the main pipeline, the blowing electromagnetic valve is opened, high-pressure gas enters the shell pipe, and is blown out from the sampling port, so that the residual powder in the shell pipe is blown out into the main pipeline, and after a certain blowing time, the blowing electromagnetic valve is closed. The spiral blade assembly is rotated to realize sampling of the powder, ensure that the sampled powder is new powder in the main pipeline, and ensure the accuracy of subsequent detection of the powder.
[0015] As optimization, the sealing structure between the branch pipe flange and the shell pipe is that a sealing seat is arranged in the branch pipe flange, the sealing seat also has a flange structure, the end of the sealing seat is sealed with the end of the branch pipe flange through a front end sealing gasket, a packing gland is arranged in the sealing seat, the packing gland is fixed on the sealing seat through bolts, an annular packing chamber is formed between the packing gland and the inner wall of the sealing seat, sealing packing is arranged in the packing chamber, the shell pipe penetrates through the packing gland and the sealing seat, and the sealing packing is in contact with the outer wall of the shell pipe.
[0016] As optimization, the sealing structure between the shaft body of the helical blade assembly and the shell pipe is that a pipe body is arranged on the transmission support, the pipe body is butted with the shell pipe, flange structures are connected on the pipe body and the shell pipe at the butting position of the pipe body and the shell pipe, a rear end sealing gasket and a positioning ring are arranged in the flange structure, the positioning ring and the inner wall of the pipe body form a shaft seal cavity, a shaft seal ring is arranged in the shaft seal cavity, the shaft body of the helical blade assembly extends from the shell pipe, passes through the pipe body and enters the transmission support, and the shaft seal ring is in contact with the shaft body.
[0017] As optimization, the sampling head is in the shape of a chisel head, and the length direction of the flat end of the chisel head structure of the sampling head is arranged along the axial direction of the main pipeline. The chisel head structure is an existing structure, and details are not described herein. The large diameter of the round head column part of the sampling head is greater than the outer diameter of the shell pipe, the large diameter is greater than the inner diameter of the sealing seat, and the large diameter is smaller than the inner diameter of the branch pipe flange. Therefore, after the sampling head is withdrawn to the branch pipe flange, the end part of the sampling head is in contact with the end part of the sealing seat.
[0018] As optimization, two stroke detection sensors are arranged on the support frame at the guide groove, and the stroke detection sensors are used to sense the moving position of the guide rod in the guide groove. The stroke detection sensors are connected with the gas circuit control system, and the piston type pneumatic actuator limits the moving position of the guide rod in the guide groove during driving the movement of the transmission support and the shell pipe, that is, the moving range of the shell pipe can be limited. Finally, the sampling port is moved to the relatively middle part of the main pipeline during sampling, and the sampling head and the like are all withdrawn into the branch pipe flange after sampling is completed.
[0019] Working principle: when sampling is needed, a sampling signal is issued, and the control gas path system pushes the push rod in the direction of the main pipeline after receiving the sampling signal, and the push rod drives the sampling mechanism to advance; at the same time, the back blowing mechanism starts to work, the blow cleaning electromagnetic valve opens, high pressure nitrogen gas enters the shell pipe through the pressure reducing valve and the blow cleaning electromagnetic valve, and the residual material in the shell pipe is blown into the main pipeline through the spiral blade assembly. At this time, the powder around the sampling head will be blown away, and the sampling head can quickly reach the center position of the main pipeline under the action of the broken wall type force of the chisel head structure sampling head; after the travel detection sensor detects that the sampling mechanism advances to the position through the guide rod, the back blowing mechanism stops working, and the motor starts to run. The powder in the main pipeline is affected by the powder conveying force and enters the sampling port, and the spiral blade assembly rotates under the drive of the motor. The spiral blade assembly transmits the powder to the discharge port, that is, the connection between the discharge hose and the shell pipe, and the powder falls into the closed mixing hopper through the discharge hose under the action of gravity; after the sampling amount reaches the required amount, a sampling stop signal is issued, and the push rod drives the sampling mechanism to retreat in the direction of the piston type pneumatic actuator after receiving the stop sampling signal. At the same time, the blow cleaning system starts to work again to clean the powder in the shell pipe; after the travel detection sensor detects that the sampling mechanism retreats to the position through the guide rod, the motor and the back blowing mechanism stop working. The sampling work signal can be set according to the needs of single time period sampling or multiple time period mixed sampling, so as to realize full automatic sampling. When the powder needs to be taken out for analysis, the operator puts the sample bag against the discharge valve, and then opens the discharge valve, so that the powder can be loaded into the sample bag; because the sampling head is attached to the sealing seat, the powder and gas pressure in the main pipeline will not enter the shell pipe. When the discharge valve is opened, the pressure in the closed mixing hopper will quickly decrease to a safe value, which can be observed through the pressure gauge, so as to avoid the problem of dust during sampling and achieve the effect of safety and environmental protection.
[0020] The automatic powder sampling device obtained by the application can realize automatic sampling in the main pipeline and will not cause blockage in the main pipeline after sampling is completed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

At this time, the powder around the sampling head 27 is blown away, and the sampling head 27 can quickly reach the center position of the main pipeline 1 under the action of the wall breaking force of the chisel head structure of the sampling head 27. After the travel detection sensor 38 detects that the sampling mechanism 2 advances to the position, the back blowing mechanism 5 stops working, and the speed reducer 24 starts to work. The powder in the main pipeline 1 is subjected to the powder conveying force and enters the sampling port 213. The spiral blade assembly 25 rotates under the drive of the motor 24, the powder is conveyed to the discharge port 211 when the spiral blade rotates, and the powder falls into the sealed mixing hopper 41 through the discharge hose 43 under the action of gravity. After the sampling amount reaches the required amount, the remote control sends a sampling stop signal, the control air path system 29 controls the push rod 34 to drive the sampling mechanism 2 to retreat to the piston pneumatic actuator 31. At the same time, the back blowing mechanism 5 starts to work again to clean the powder in the shell pipe 21. After the travel detection sensor 38 detects that the sampling mechanism 2 retreats to the position through the guide rod 37, the motor 24 and the back blowing mechanism 5 stop working. The sampling work signal can be set according to the needs of single time period sampling or multiple time period mixed sampling, and full automatic sampling is realized. When the powder needs to be taken out for analysis, the operator can put the sampling bag against the discharge valve 44, open the discharge valve 44, and then the powder can be loaded into the sampling bag. Since the sampling head 27 is attached to the sealing seat 224, the powder and air pressure in the main pipeline 1 will not enter the shell pipe 21. When the discharge valve 44 is opened, the pressure in the sealed mixing hopper 41 will quickly decrease to a safe value, which can be observed through the pressure gauge 45, so as to avoid the problem of dust during sampling and achieve the effect of safety and environmental protection.
