Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of uranium conversion related equipment, and particularly relates to a radioactive powder material collecting assembly. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the rapid development of nuclear power, the installed capacity is rapidly increasing, and higher requirements are put forward for the supply of nuclear fuel. Uranium ore is the main raw material for the preparation of nuclear fuel. In the entire preparation process of nuclear fuel, two steps of uranium purification and uranium conversion will be experienced. Uranium purification refers to the production process from uranium ore concentrate to refined UO2. Uranium conversion refers to the production process from refined UO2 to UF6.

[0003] The UO2 powder produced in the uranium purification step is stored in a special sealed container for use. The sealed container is provided with a closable or open discharge port at the lower end, and the capacity and volume are designed to be small to facilitate transportation or storage. When the uranium conversion step is needed, the UO2 powder in the multiple sealed containers needs to be discharged into the intermediate storage bin, which is called the UO2 feeding operation.

[0004] At present, the UO2 feeding operation is carried out in a three-story plant. The first floor of the plant stores multiple sealed containers containing UO2 powder, the second floor of the plant is provided with hydrogen fluoride equipment (for processing UO2) and an intermediate storage bin which are sequentially connected, and the third floor of the plant is provided with a discharge port connected to the intermediate storage bin, which is used to receive the UO2 powder poured out from the sealed container. When performing the UO2 feeding operation, the multiple sealed containers need to be hoisted from the first floor of the plant to the third floor of the plant by manually operating a crane, and then the sealed containers are sequentially connected to the discharge port for pouring.

[0005] The above UO2 feeding operation has the following disadvantages:

[0006] 1. In one working cycle of the feeding operation, 3-4 sealed containers of materials need to be fed into the intermediate storage bin. In this process, the sealed containers need to be transported from the first floor of the plant to the third floor of the plant, and after the feeding is completed, the empty sealed containers are transported back to the first floor of the plant. The operations such as opening the cover (i.e. opening the discharge port at the lower end of the sealed container), docking (i.e. docking the discharge port at the lower end of the sealed container with the discharge port on the third floor of the plant), and closing the cover (i.e. closing the discharge port at the lower end of the sealed container) of each sealed container need to be operated by the operator on the third floor of the plant, which is complicated and low in efficiency.

[0007] 2. In the process of the feeding operation, the UO2 powder is easy to leak out from the discharge port of the sealed container and the discharge port on the third floor of the plant, and dust is generated. Since the UO2 powder is radioactive, it will damage the health of the operators on the third floor of the plant.

[0008] 3、On the one hand, in order to avoid UO2 powder material diffusion to the outside of the plant to pollute the environment, the plant has a certain airtightness to achieve isolation from the outside, on the other hand, the second floor of the plant is provided with a hydrogen fluoride device with very high operating temperature, which increases the heat load in the plant. Both of the above factors result in high ambient temperature in the plant. Especially in hot summer, the indoor temperature of the third floor of the plant is as high as 50-60℃, which leads to very poor working environment for the operators located on the third floor of the plant.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:

[0032] It is applied to the automatic feeding system of radioactive powder materials, serves as an important component of the automatic feeding system of radioactive powder materials, and provides a necessary structural basis for realizing automatic feeding operation of UO2 powder materials in a uranium conversion process.

[0033] The storage tank is provided with two covers, i.e., an inner cover (inner sealing cover A) and an outer cover (outer protective cover), and can fully meet the needs of sealing storage, automatic feeding, automatic opening and closing of the cover, and transportation safety of UO2 powder materials in the tank.

[0034] The inner cover mainly plays a role of sealing and preventing leakage, and the operation disc A at the upper end of the storage tank can control the lifting movement of the inner cover, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the discharge port A of the storage tank. On the one hand, the operation disc A for controlling the opening and closing of the inner cover is open at the upper end of the storage tank, which is convenient for the mechanical hand to touch and operate to realize automatic feeding. On the other hand, the gradually expanding annular gap formed when the inner cover is opened makes the material fall uniformly and controllably, avoiding a large amount of dust generated by pouring.

[0035] The outer cover mainly plays a role of meeting the needs of automatic feeding and ensuring transportation safety. The structure of the outer cover is adapted to the structure of the storage tank outer cover dismounting device, and the outer cover is dismounted or mounted from the discharge port A of the storage tank through the storage tank outer cover dismounting device, without manual dismounting or mounting. In addition, when the outer cover is mounted on the discharge port A of the storage tank, it cannot be dismounted without damage by using common hardware tools, and can only be dismounted by using the storage tank outer cover dismounting device, thereby ensuring that the storage tank containing UO2 powder is in a protected (or locked) state during transportation.

[0036] 3.1 In example 2, on the one hand, the top of the transfer tank is provided with a plurality of feed ports arranged in a ring shape, and on the other hand, in the material gathering link (corresponding to step S03 of the feeding operation), each storage tank is respectively connected to a specific feed port on the transfer tank for feeding, thereby forming a plurality of "hills" in the transfer tank, which are arranged in a ring shape and interfere with each other, effectively reducing the undulating height of the UO2 powder after accumulation, and helping to fully utilize the internal space of the transfer tank, so that the volume of the transfer tank can be designed to be relatively smaller, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the transfer tank and facilitating transportation and management.

[0037] 3.2 In example 1, on the one hand, the top of the transfer tank is provided with only one feed port, and a vibration motor is arranged on the side wall of the transfer tank, and on the other hand, in the material gathering link (corresponding to step S03 of the feeding operation), each storage tank is connected to the only feed port on the transfer tank for feeding. The transfer tank does not need to be rotated to adjust the posture when connected to different storage tanks, and the connection difficulty and control difficulty are greatly reduced. The arrangement of the vibration motor can avoid the formation of "hills" in the transfer tank due to the accumulation of UO2 powder, effectively reducing the undulating height of the UO2 powder after accumulation, and helping to fully utilize the internal space of the transfer tank, so that the volume of the transfer tank can be designed to be relatively smaller, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the transfer tank and facilitating transportation and management.

[0038] 4. The negative pressure dust removal device is used to suppress the dust raising in the transfer tank, avoid the UO2 powder from the feeding port of the transfer tank to float out and cause radioactive pollution to the external environment. In the embodiment 1, the filter units of the negative pressure dust removal device are annularly and uniformly distributed on the top of the transfer tank, and in the embodiment 2, the filter units of the negative pressure dust removal device are spaced and dispersedly arranged on the top of the transfer tank. The negative pressure fan is started to form the multi-point, small-flow and small-range air extraction effect at the air inlet of all the filter units, so as to disperse the total air extraction flow to the air inlet of each filter unit, on the one hand, the dust raising is effectively suppressed, and on the other hand, the excessive UO2 powder is avoided to be sucked.

[0039] The radioactive powder material automatic feeding system has the following advantages:

[0040] 1. On the basis of the traditional feeding process (a plurality of sealed containers are sequentially transported from the first floor of the plant to the third floor of the plant for feeding), the feeding process is optimized (the materials in a plurality of storage tanks are collected in a transfer tank, and the transfer tank is transported to the third floor of the plant for one-time feeding), the automatic feeding operation of the UO2 powder material in the uranium conversion process is realized, and the efficiency of the feeding operation is significantly improved.

[0041] 2. The optimized feeding process can be generally divided into two steps: a plurality of small tank materials are collected in a transfer tank; and the transfer tank is transported to the third floor of the plant for one-time feeding.

[0042] Among them, the first step is the most complex part of the whole feeding process, which needs the linkage cooperation of a plurality of components, and the automatic control design difficulty is relatively high, so it is set in the first floor of the plant with a relatively suitable environment, which is convenient for the operator to control and manage;

[0043] Among them, the second step is a relatively simple part of the whole feeding process, which involves relatively fewer components for linkage cooperation, and the automatic control design difficulty is relatively low, so it is set in the third floor of the plant, so that the third floor of the plant with a relatively harsh environment does not need to be configured with an operator, which reduces the working intensity of the operator, avoids the radiation damage of the operator caused by the dust raising, and in a working cycle of the feeding operation, the third floor of the plant only experiences one input and one output of a transfer tank, the number of actions of each component is relatively small, and the probability of failure and error is relatively low.

[0044] 3. In the material gathering link (corresponding to the S03 step of the feeding operation), the moving path of the storage tank is a straight reciprocating movement, the movement path of the transfer tank is a fixed-point rotation, and the moving path of the storage tank and the moving path of the transfer tank are arranged in a high-low staggered manner in space; the storage tank performs the operations of disassembling the outer protective cover and feeding the powder material at both ends of its moving path, and the transfer tank performs the operations of docking the storage tank or disassembling the upper sealing cover when it is rotated to a specific angle; the movement route, action mode and spatial staggered arrangement of the storage tank and the transfer tank make the material gathering link simple and efficient, with no redundant and ineffective movement / action.

[0076] The factory building has three levels of space, from bottom to top: a first-floor space 11, a second-floor space 12, and a third-floor space 13. A transfer elevator 18 runs through these three levels from bottom to top. The transfer elevator 18 has a lower opening 181 and an upper opening 182 in the first-floor space 11 and the third-floor space 13, respectively. The transfer elevator 18 is used to receive or discharge transfer tanks at the lower opening 181, or at the upper opening 182, or to lift transfer tanks filled with materials from the first-floor space 11 to the third-floor space 13, or to lower empty transfer tanks from the third-floor space 13 back to the first-floor space 11. The specific structure of the transfer elevator 18 is prior art; please refer to the description of "elevator" in patent document CN113443329A, which will not be repeated here. The first-floor space 11 is equipped with an overhead sliding platform 14 and a cantilever crane (not shown in the figure). The overhead sliding platform 14 is equipped with a horizontal track A15. The second-floor space 12 is equipped with a transfer hopper 16, which has an inlet 161 at its upper end. The third-floor space 13 has a horizontal track B17 on its floor (or ground). One end of the horizontal track B17 is close to the upper opening 182 of the transfer elevator 18, and the other end is away from the upper opening 182 of the transfer elevator 18.

The upper end of the extension rod A27 is fixedly connected (threadedly connected) with the lower end of the inner sleeve A25.

[0079] The inner sealing cover A28 is conical annular and is fixedly arranged on the lower end outer wall of the extension rod A27. The inner sealing cover A28 is used for opening or closing the discharge port A212 at the bottom of the tank body A21. The operation of opening or closing the discharge port A212 at the bottom of the tank body A21 is as follows: the operating section of the screw rod A22 is twisted to move the nut A26 along the guide rib 261 of the outer sleeve A26 (or along the screw rod A22), so as to move the inner sealing cover A28 through the inner sleeve A25 and the extension rod A27, so that the inner sealing cover A28 is attached to or separated from the discharge port A212 of the tank body A21. When the inner sealing cover A28 is attached to the discharge port A212 of the tank body A21, the discharge port A212 is closed. When the inner sealing cover A28 is separated from the discharge port A212 of the tank body A21, the discharge port A212 is opened.

[0080] The outer protective cover comprises an upper pressing plate 215, an upper seat body 292, a lower seat body 293, an L-shaped rocker 294 and a spring 295. The upper seat body 292 comprises an upper sealing disc 2921, a corner connecting plate 2922 and a lower adsorption plate 2923 fixedly connected in sequence from top to bottom. The upper end surface of the upper sealing disc 2921 is used to abut or separate with the upper pressing plate 215 of the storage tank, thereby opening or closing the discharge port A212 of the storage tank. The lower end surface of the upper sealing disc 2921 is provided with an annular boss X2924 for accommodating the spring 295. A plurality of corner connecting plates 2922 are annularly and uniformly distributed between the upper sealing disc 2921 and the lower adsorption plate 2923 around the annular boss X2924. The upper end of the corner connecting plate 2922 is welded with the lower end surface of the upper sealing disc 2921, and the lower end of the corner connecting plate 2922 is welded with the upper end surface of the lower adsorption plate 2923. The center of the lower adsorption plate 2923 is provided with a central hole A for the lower seat body to pass through. The lower seat body 293 comprises a lower pushing plate 2931 and an upper annular plate 2932 fixedly connected in sequence from bottom to top. The central area of the upper end surface of the lower pushing plate 2931 is provided with an annular boss Y2933 for accommodating the spring. A plurality of guide grooves X are annularly and uniformly distributed on the upper end surface of the lower pushing plate 2931 around the annular boss Y2933. The upper annular plate 2932 is arranged at the upper end of the annular boss Y2933 and extends outward in the radial direction of the annular boss Y2933. The lower seat body 293 is provided with an annular open interval 2934 between the outside of the annular boss Y2933, the lower end of the upper annular plate 2932 and the upper end of the lower pushing plate 2931. The lower seat body 293 is movably inserted into the lower end opening of the annular boss X2924 of the upper seat body 292 through the upper end opening of the annular boss Y2933, so that the annular boss X2924 of the upper seat body 292 and the annular boss Y2933 of the lower seat body 293 are in communication to form a spring accommodation cavity 2935. The L-shaped rocker 294 is provided with a hook portion 2941 at the upper end, a roller A2942 at the lower end and a turning portion 2943 at the middle portion. The turning portion of the L-shaped rocker 294 is hinged to the lower end of the corner connecting plate 2922. The roller A2942 of the L-shaped rocker 294 is limited in the annular open interval 2934, and the lower end of the roller A2942 is embedded in the guide groove X. The spring 295 is compressedly arranged in the spring accommodation cavity 2935, and it forces the lower seat body 293 to move away from the upper seat body 292 by the elastic force, thereby driving the L-shaped rocker 294 to rotate inwardly (clockwise) of the storage tank around the hinge thereof, so that the hook portion 2941 of the L-shaped rocker 294 hooks the upper end surface of the upper pressing plate 215 of the storage tank. When an external force pushes the lower seat body 293 to move towards the upper seat body 292, it drives the L-shaped rocker 294 to rotate outwardly (counterclockwise) of the storage tank around the hinge thereof, so that the hook portion 2941 of the L-shaped rocker 294 is separated from the upper end surface of the upper pressing plate 215 of the storage tank.

[0081] The transfer tank comprises a tank body B31, an upper sealing cover 32, a screw rod B33, a nut B34, an operation disc B35, an inner sleeve B36, an outer sleeve B37, an extension rod B38, an inner sealing cover B39 and a vibration motor 30.

The inner sealing cover B39 is in the shape of a tapered ring and is fixedly installed on the lower end of the extension rod B38, and is used to open or close the discharge port B312 at the bottom of the tank body B31. The vibration motor 30 is fixedly installed on the upper end side wall of the tank body B31. The operation of opening or closing the discharge port B312 is as follows: the operation section of the screw rod B33 is twisted to move the nut B34 along the guide strip 371 of the outer sleeve B37 (or along the screw rod B33), and then the inner sealing cover B39 is moved by the inner sleeve B36 and the extension rod B38 to make the inner sealing cover B39 adhere to or separate from the discharge port B312 of the tank body B31. When the inner sealing cover A28 adheres to the discharge port B312 of the tank body B31, the discharge port B312 is closed, and when the inner sealing cover A28 separates from the discharge port B312 of the tank body B31, the discharge port B312 is opened.

[0082] The material collection assembly comprises a transfer tank rotating device, a storage tank translation trolley, a storage tank outer cover dismounting device, a storage tank inner cover opening and closing device, a transfer tank upper cover dismounting device, a lower pipeline butt joint device and a negative pressure dust removal device.

[0083] The transfer tank rotating device is fixedly arranged below the overhead sliding platform 14. The transfer tank rotating device comprises a lower base 411, a rotating drive motor A 412, an upper rotating disc 413, a limiting frame 414 and a first guide roller 415. The lower base 411 is directly or indirectly fixedly installed on the ground of the first floor space 11. The rotating drive motor A 412 is fixedly installed on the lower base 411. The upper rotating disc 413 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the rotating drive motor A 412 and rotates horizontally under the drive of the rotating drive motor A 412. The upper end of the upper rotating disc 413 is provided with a plurality of rollers arranged in parallel and horizontally, which are arranged in three parallel columns at the upper end of the upper rotating disc 413. The rollers in the middle column are non-electrically driven rollers, and the rollers in the two side columns are electrically driven rollers. All the rollers form a rolling conveying surface A above them. One end of the conveying direction of the rolling conveying surface A is an inlet and outlet A 416 (the inlet and outlet A 416 can be used for the transfer tank to enter or exit the rolling conveying surface A). The limiting frame 414 is fixedly installed on the upper rotating disc 413 and located at the other end of the conveying direction of the rolling conveying surface A. The limiting frame 414 is embedded with a limiting electromagnet 4141. The two columns of first guide rollers 415 are vertically arranged and rotatably installed on the upper rotating disc 413 and located on the two sides of the conveying direction of the rolling conveying surface A. Each column of first guide rollers 415 is composed of a plurality of first guide rollers 415 vertically arranged and arranged in a horizontal column. The two columns of first guide rollers 415 and the limiting frame 414 form a placing station A 417. When the transfer tank enters the rolling conveying surface A through the inlet and outlet A 416, the two columns of first guide rollers 415 respectively contact two surfaces on the guide section 314 of the transfer tank, and the limiting electromagnet 4141 on the limiting frame 414 is used to adsorb one surface on the guide section 314 of the transfer tank, so as to limit the transfer tank in the placing station A 417. When the transfer tank rotating device rotates with the transfer tank placed in the placing station A 417, there are a first docking position and a second docking position in the rotating path of the upper sealing cover 32 of the transfer tank.

[0084] The storage tank translation trolley is movably installed on the horizontal rail A15. The storage tank translation trolley comprises a trolley body A421 and an electric push rod A425. The trolley body A421 is provided with a plurality of guide rollers arranged horizontally at the upper end of the trolley body A421, and all the guide rollers jointly enclose a plurality of mouth-shaped areas, each of which is a placement station B423. The trolley body A421 is provided with a blanking hole A424 in each placement station B423. The trolley body A421 is rollingly installed on the horizontal rail A15 through the rollers B422. The cylinder body of the electric push rod A425 is fixedly installed on the horizontal rail A15, and the piston rod of the electric push rod A425 is fixedly connected with the trolley body A421. When the piston rod of the electric push rod A425 is retracted or extended, the trolley body A421 is driven to move horizontally and reciprocally along the horizontal rail A15. When the storage tank is placed in any placement station B423 of the storage tank translation trolley, the discharge port A212 of the storage tank is opposite to the blanking hole A424 in the placement station B423. When the storage tank is placed in the target placement station B423 of the storage tank translation trolley, the guide rollers located at the four sides of the target placement station B423 are in contact with the four legs 214 at the lower end of the storage tank, so as to correct and adjust the posture of the storage tank, thereby limiting the storage tank in the placement station B423. When the storage tank translation trolley moves with the storage tank placed in the placement station B423, the movement path of the storage tank passes through the third, fourth and fifth docking positions.

[0085] The device is used for dismounting and mounting the outer protective cover of the storage tank. The device comprises an electric push rod B431, a bracket 432, a ring-shaped electromagnet 433 and a traction electromagnet 434.

The lower end of the traction electromagnet 434 is fixed in the electromagnet accommodating cavity 4322 of the bracket 432, the upper end of the traction electromagnet 434 extends out of the central hole B4321 of the bracket 432 and is located in the central hole C4331 of the ring-shaped electromagnet 433, and the upper end of the traction electromagnet 434 moves vertically and linearly, so as to extend out of the upper end of the ring-shaped electromagnet 433 or retract into the central hole C4331 of the ring-shaped electromagnet 433. When the storage tank with the outer protective cover moves to the fourth docking position, and the device is not adsorbed to the outer protective cover, the lower adsorption plate 2923 of the outer protective cover is located directly above the ring-shaped electromagnet 433, and the lower push plate 2931 of the outer protective cover is located directly above the traction electromagnet 434, so as to facilitate the device to dismount the outer protective cover of the storage tank. When the storage tank without the outer protective cover moves to the fourth docking position, and the device is adsorbed to the outer protective cover, the lower adsorption plate 2923 of the outer protective cover is magnetically attracted to the ring-shaped electromagnet 433, the lower push plate 2931 of the outer protective cover is magnetically attracted to the traction electromagnet 434, and the upper sealing disc 2921 of the outer protective cover is located directly below the upper pressing plate 215 of the storage tank, so as to facilitate the device to mount the outer protective cover of the storage tank.

[0086] The inner cover opening and closing device of the storage tank is used to control the inner sealing cover A28 of the storage tank to be attached or separated from the discharge port A212, so as to open or close the discharge port A212 of the storage tank.

[0135] f. The rotary drive motor B443 of the storage tank inner cover opening and closing device is started, driving the docking disc 444 to rotate by a certain angle, so that the finger 4441 of the docking disc 444 is directly opposite the insertion hole A241 of the operation disc A24 of the target storage tank. At the same time, the lifting drive device A442 is started, driving the docking disc 444 to move downwards, so that the finger 4441 of the docking disc 444 is inserted into the insertion hole A241 of the operation disc A24 of the target storage tank. Then, the rotary drive motor B443 of the storage tank inner cover opening and closing device is started, driving the docking disc 444 to rotate, driving the operation disc A24 and the lead screw A22 of the target storage tank to rotate, and then driving the nut A23 to move downwards along the lead screw A22. The nut A23 drives the inner sealing cover A28 to move downwards through the inner sleeve A25 and the extension rod A27, so that the inner sealing cover A28 is separated from the discharge port A212 of the target storage tank, thereby forming an annular gap for the powder material to fall. The powder material in the inner cavity A211 of the target storage tank falls through the annular gap, and then sequentially passes through the upper movable pipe 463, the middle pipe 462, the lower movable pipe 464, and the target feed port 313 of the transfer tank, and enters the inner cavity B311 of the transfer tank;

[0136] g. After the powder material in the target storage tank is completely discharged, perform the following three operations simultaneously: 1. The two linear motors A465 in the lower pipe docking device operate synchronously, driving the upper movable pipe 463 downward through the transmission of connecting rod A467, so as to avoid interfering with the subsequent movement of the storage tank translation trolley; 2. The two linear motors B466 in the lower pipe docking device operate synchronously, driving the lower movable pipe 464 upward through the transmission of connecting rod B468, so as to avoid interfering with the subsequent rotation of the transfer tank located on the transfer tank rotation device; 3. The storage tank inner cover opening and closing device... The rotary drive motor B443 in the center starts, driving the docking plate 444 to rotate, which in turn drives the operating plate A24 and the lead screw A22 of the target storage tank to rotate, thereby driving the nut A23 to move downward along the lead screw A22. The nut A23 drives the inner sealing cover A28 to move downward through the inner sleeve A25 and the extension rod A27, so that the inner sealing cover A28 fits and closes the discharge port A212 of the target storage tank. Then, the lifting drive device A442 starts, driving the docking plate 444 to move upward, so that the finger rod 4441 of the docking plate 444 exits the insertion hole A241 of the operating plate A24 of the target storage tank.

[0137] h. The rotary drive motor A412 of the transfer tank rotation device starts, driving the transfer tank in the placement station A417 to rotate to the first docking position, so that the target feed port 313 of the transfer tank rotates to the electromagnetic chuck 453 of the transfer tank cover removal and assembly device.

[0138] i. The lifting drive device B451 of the transfer tank cover removal and assembly device descends, driving the electromagnetic chuck 453 to descend, inserting the target upper sealing cover 323 adsorbed on the electromagnetic chuck 453 into the target feed inlet 313 of the transfer tank; the electromagnetic chuck 453 is de-energized, releasing the adsorption state with the target upper sealing cover 323; the lifting drive device B451 rises, driving the electromagnetic chuck 453 to rise, so as to avoid interfering with the subsequent rotation of the transfer tank located on the transfer tank rotation device;

[0139] j. Repeat steps a to i to connect the other storage tanks on the storage tank transfer trolley with the transfer tank in sequence and feed them in, ensuring that all the feed ports 313 on the transfer tank correspond one-to-one with all the storage tanks on the storage tank transfer trolley (i.e., each feed port 313 on the transfer tank is only allowed to be connected once).

[0140] In this step, the ball valve in the negative pressure dust removal device is opened, and the negative pressure fan 475 is started, and the negative pressure is conducted to the filter unit 471 through the negative pressure fan 475, the hose 474, the main pipe 472 and the branch pipe 473 in turn, and the dust in the upper part of the cavity B311 of the transfer tank is sucked through all the filter units 471, and the dust is intercepted in the filter unit 471, and the filtered air is discharged into the external environment through the branch pipe 473, the main pipe 472, the hose 474 and the negative pressure fan 475 in turn.

[0141] In this step, after all the storage tanks on the material tank translation trolley are completed (corresponding to the end of sub-step f - before sub-step g starts), the negative pressure fan 475 is closed first, then the ball valve on the total gas outlet of the main pipe 472 is closed, and finally the hose 474 is disconnected from the total gas outlet of the main pipe 472.

[0142] In this step, the transfer tank rotating device should avoid driving the transfer tank to always rotate in one direction, thereby preventing the hose from winding on the transfer tank.

[0143] S04, transfer the transfer tank to the transfer tank translation trolley:

[0144] a. The rotation driving motor A412 of the transfer tank rotating device is started to drive the upper turntable 413 to rotate, so that the inlet and outlet A416 of the transfer tank rotating device is opposite to the first conveying belt 100; then, the limiting electromagnet 4141 is de-energized to release the locking state of the transfer tank in the positioning station A417; then, the roller moves the transfer tank to the direction close to the inlet and outlet A416, and in the moving process, two rows of first guide rollers 415 are in contact with two surfaces on the guide section 314 of the transfer tank respectively, which plays a role in limiting the moving path of the transfer tank, until the transfer tank is discharged from the inlet and outlet A416 to the outside of the transfer tank rotating device;

[0145] b. After the transfer tank is discharged to the outside of the transfer tank rotating device, it enters the rolling conveying surface B of the transfer tank translation trolley through the first conveying belt 100, the transfer elevator 18, the second conveying belt 200 and the inlet and outlet B517 of the transfer tank translation trolley in turn;

[0146] c. The roller on the transfer tank translation trolley is started, driving the transfer tank to move to the central area of the rolling conveying surface B. During the movement, the two rows of second guide rollers 515 are in contact with two surfaces on the guide section 314 of the transfer tank, playing a role in limiting the movement path of the transfer tank. When the transfer tank moves to the central area of the rolling conveying surface B, the roller stops running, and the front and rear air cylinders 517 and 519 are started, respectively, driving the front and rear limit plates 516 and 518 to extend above the rolling conveying surface B, so that the front and rear limit plates 516 and 518 are in contact with the other two surfaces on the guide section 314 of the transfer tank, thereby locking the transfer tank in the placement station C510 of the transfer tank translation trolley.

[0147] S05, the transfer tank is thrown into the transfer bin:

[0148] a. The rotary drive motor D524 of the upper pipe docking device is started, rotating the cover plate 526 through the second extension rod 525 to open the upper port of the docking pipe 522 in the lower limit position. The transfer tank translation trolley drives the transfer tank to move from the tank conveying position to the feeding position, so that the transfer tank is vertically opposite to the upper pipe docking device. Then, the lifting drive device C521 of the upper pipe docking device is started, driving the docking pipe 522 to rise from the lower limit position to the upper limit position, so that the discharge port B312 of the transfer tank is contained in the upper port of the docking pipe 522. At this time, the lower port of the docking pipe 522 is still inserted into the feeding port 161 of the transfer bin 16.

[0149] b. The rotary drive motor C533 of the transfer tank inner cover opening and closing device is started, rotating the plug-in disc 534 by a certain angle, so that the plug rod 5341 at the lower end of the plug-in disc 534 is opposite to the plug hole B351 in the operation disc B35 of the transfer tank. Then, the lifting drive device C521 is started, driving the plug-in disc 534 to move downward, so that the plug rod 5341 at the lower end of the plug-in disc 534 is inserted into the plug hole B351 of the operation disc B35 of the transfer tank. Next, the rotary drive motor C533 is started, driving the plug-in disc 534 to rotate, driving the operation disc B35 and the screw rod B33 of the transfer tank to rotate, and then driving the nut B34 to move downward along the screw rod B33. The nut B34 drives the inner sealing cover B39 to move downward through the inner sleeve B36 and the extension rod B38, so that the inner sealing cover B39 is separated from the discharge port B312 of the transfer tank, thereby forming an annular gap for the powder material to fall. The powder material in the inner cavity B311 of the transfer tank falls through the annular gap, and then enters the inside of the transfer bin 16 through the docking pipe 522 and the feeding port 161 in turn.

[0150] c. After the powder material in the transfer tank is discharged completely, the two linear motors A465 in the lower pipe docking device act synchronously, respectively driving the upper movable pipe 463 to move downward through the transmission of the connecting rod A467, so as to avoid interference and avoid subsequent movement of the storage tank translation trolley.

[0151] d. The rotation driving motor C533 in the inner cover opening and closing device of the transfer tank is started, driving the plug-in disc 534 to rotate, driving the operation disc B35 and the screw rod B33 of the transfer tank to rotate, and further driving the nut B34 to move upwards along the screw rod B33. The nut B34 drives the inner sealing cover B39 to move upwards through the inner sleeve B36 and the extension rod B38, so that the inner sealing cover B39 is attached to the discharge port B312 of the transfer tank, thereby closing the discharge port B312 of the transfer tank. Then, the lifting driving device C521 is started, driving the plug-in disc 534 to move upwards, so that the plug-in rod 5341 at the lower end of the plug-in disc 534 exits the plug hole B351 of the operation disc B35 of the transfer tank. Thus, the feeding operation is completed.

[0152] In this step, the upper end of the transfer bin 16 is provided with a negative pressure dust collection port (not shown in the figure), which is in communication with an external negative pressure source. When the powder material enters the transfer bin 16, the external negative pressure source is started immediately to perform negative pressure dust removal operation on the upper end of the transfer bin 16, so as to avoid the powder material from floating out of the inlet port 161.

[0153] S06, recycling the empty transfer tank:

[0154] a. The front cylinder 517 and the rear cylinder 519 on the transfer tank translation trolley are started respectively, driving the front limiting plate 516 and the rear limiting plate 518 to retract below the rolling conveying surface B, so that the front limiting plate 516 and the rear limiting plate 518 are separated from the two surfaces on the guide section 314 of the transfer tank, thereby releasing the locking state of the transfer tank in the placement station C510;

[0155] b. The transfer tank translation trolley drives the transfer tank to move from the feeding position to the transfer position, so that the inlet and outlet B517 of the transfer tank translation trolley is in close proximity to the second conveying belt 200. Then, the roller on the transfer tank translation trolley is started, driving the transfer tank to move towards the inlet and outlet B517. During the movement, the two rows of second guide rollers 515 are in contact with the two surfaces on the guide section 314 of the transfer tank respectively, playing a role in limiting the movement path of the transfer tank, until the transfer tank is discharged from the inlet and outlet B517 to the outside of the transfer tank translation trolley;

[0156] c. After the transfer tank is discharged to the outside of the transfer tank rotation device, it sequentially passes through the second conveying belt 200, the transfer elevator 18, the first conveying belt 100, and the inlet and outlet A416 of the transfer tank rotation device, and enters the rolling conveying surface A of the transfer tank rotation device. Then, the empty transfer tank is adjusted away from the rolling conveying surface A of the transfer tank rotation device by the suspension crane, thereby completing the recycling of the transfer tank.

[0157] Preferably, the feeding operation further comprises an M step which is executed after the S03 step and before or after the S04, S05 and S06 steps.

[0158] M, the outer protective cover of the installation of the storage tank:

[0159] a, the storage tank translation trolley drives the target storage tank with the disassembled outer protective cover to the fourth docking position. Since the upper end of the storage tank outer cover dismounting device has been connected with the outer protective cover, the upper sealing disc 2921 of the outer protective cover is located directly below the upper pressing plate 215 of the storage tank;

[0160] b, the electric push rod B431 of the storage tank outer cover dismounting device rises, driving the outer protective cover to move upwards. When the upper sealing disc 2921 of the outer protective cover is attached to the upper pressing plate 215 of the storage tank, the discharge port A212 of the storage tank is closed. Then, the traction electromagnet 434 is lowered, thereby driving the lower push plate 2931 to move downwards, and further driving the L-shaped rocker 294 to rotate inwards of the storage tank (clockwise) around its hinge, so that the hook part 2941 of the L-shaped rocker 294 is latched on the upper end face of the upper pressing plate 215;

[0161] c, the traction electromagnet 434 and the annular electromagnet 433 of the storage tank outer cover dismounting device are powered off, so that the traction electromagnet 434 is released from the adsorbed state with the lower push plate 2931, and the annular electromagnet 433 is released from the adsorbed state with the lower adsorption plate 2923. Then, the electric push rod B431 is lowered, so that the outer protective cover is completely separated from the storage tank outer cover dismounting device. Based on the elastic force of the spring 295, the lower seat body 293 has a tendency to move downwards, thereby driving the L-shaped rocker 294 to have a tendency to rotate inwards of the storage tank around its hinge point, and further driving the hook part 2941 of the L-shaped rocker 294 to press tightly on the upper end face of the upper pressing plate 215. Thus, the outer protective cover has been installed on the target storage tank;

[0162] d, repeat the a-c steps to install the outer protective cover on all the storage tanks on the storage tank translation trolley in turn.

[0175] c. The lifting drive device B451 of the transfer tank upper cover dismounting device is lowered to drive the electromagnetic suction disc 453 to descend. When the electromagnetic suction disc 453 contacts the upper sealing cover 32 of the transfer tank, the electromagnetic suction disc 453 is powered to suck the upper sealing cover 32. Then, the lifting drive device B451 is raised to drive the electromagnetic suction disc 453 and the upper sealing cover 32 to move upwards, thereby dismounting the upper sealing cover 32 from the feed port 313 of the transfer tank, so that the feed port 313 of the transfer tank is exposed;

[0179] g、after the powder material in the target storage tank is discharged, the following three operations are simultaneously performed: 1, the two linear motors A465 in the lower pipeline butt joint device are synchronously actuated, the upper movable pipeline 463 is driven to move downwards through the transmission of the connecting rod A467, so as to avoid interference with the subsequent movement of the storage tank translation trolley; 2, the two linear motors B466 in the lower pipeline butt joint device are synchronously actuated, the lower movable pipeline 464 is driven to move upwards through the transmission of the connecting rod B468, so as to avoid interference with the subsequent rotation of the transfer tank located on the transfer tank rotating device; 3, the rotation driving motor B443 of the inner cover opening and closing device of the storage tank is started, the butt joint disc 444 is driven to rotate, the operation disc A24 and the screw rod A22 of the target storage tank are driven to rotate, the nut A23 is driven to move downwards along the screw rod A22, the inner sealing cover A28 is driven to move downwards by the inner sleeve A25 and the extension rod A27, the inner sealing cover A28 is attached to and closes the discharge port A212 of the target storage tank, then the lifting driving device A442 is started, the butt joint disc 444 is driven to move upwards, and the finger rod 4441 of the butt joint disc 444 is withdrawn from the insertion hole A241 of the operation disc A24 of the target storage tank;
