AI Technical Summary
Existing pneumatic conveying systems for powder materials suffer from high equipment investment and increased civil engineering costs during unloading, especially the use of cyclone separators and insertion pulse dust collectors, which leads to resource waste and increased costs.
The material-air separation valve replaces the dual-way valve. By installing the material-air separation valve on the main line, the powder and airflow are separated. The powder goes directly into the silo, and the airflow returns to the main line, avoiding the need to set up separate cyclone separators and pulse dust collectors.
This allows for direct storage of powder materials, reducing equipment and civil engineering investment, saving resources, increasing the value of powder materials, and reducing factory losses.

The end branch line unloading is divided into two forms, the first one is that the material enters a cyclone separator, the material is settled, and after settlement, the material is discharged through a discharge air lock, and the gas flow containing a small amount of dust enters the centralized air net through the air inlet of the cyclone separator for centralized dust removal; the second one is that the end of the branch line is provided with a bin, and an insertion type pulse dust collector is installed on the top of the bin, the material is settled after entering the bin, and the gas flow containing a small amount of dust is filtered and discharged through the insertion type pulse dust collector on the top of the bin.
[0003] The existing pneumatic conveying system has the following disadvantages for the two unloading modes at the end, the first one is that after the material is settled through the cyclone separator, the gas flow containing a small amount of dust enters the centralized air net, the powder content is about 2%, and after being filtered through the pulse dust collector, the material is collected again, which can only be used in a degraded manner, and this is a waste for flour mills and food factories. The second one is that an insertion type pulse is provided on the top of each bin, the filtered material can fall into the bin and be naturally collected, but a set of dust removal system needs to be provided for each bin, the cost is high, and in addition, the installation height needs to be sufficient, and the cost of civil construction is increased.

[0026] As shown in Figure 1 and 2 , in the present embodiment, a material-gas separation valve is disclosed, which comprises a valve body 1, the valve body 1 is provided with a first channel 101 and a second channel 102, the first channel 101 and the second channel 102 are communicated, and the first channel 101 and the second channel 102 form a T-shaped channel structure after being communicated, and the second channel 102 is eccentrically provided with a material-gas partition plate 2, the material-gas partition plate 2 divides the second channel 102 into a discharge channel 102-1 and a gas flow channel 102-2.
[0027] The valve body 1 is provided with a rotatable valve core 3, when the valve core 3 is rotated to a horizontal state, the outer edge of the valve core 3 is in contact with the inner wall of the upper port of the second channel 102; when the valve core 3 is rotated to a vertical state, the upper outer edge of the valve core 3 is in contact with the inner wall of the first channel 101, and the lower outer edge of the valve core 3 is in contact with the top of the material-gas partition plate 2.
[0028] The material-gas separation valve has two working states:
[0029] A discharge state, such as Figure 3 As shown, in this state, the valve core 3 rotates to a vertical position. At this time, the first channel 101 on the left side of the valve core 3 is connected to the discharge channel 102-1, and the first channel 101 on the right side of the valve core 3 is connected to the airflow channel 102-2. In this state, the mixture of powder and airflow enters the discharge channel 102-1 from the first channel 101 on the left side of the valve core 3. The powder moves directly downward under the action of gravity and inertia, while the airflow bypasses the lower end of the material-air baffle 2 and flows into the airflow channel 102-2, thus achieving material-air separation. The separated airflow then flows out through the first channel 101 on the right side of the valve core 3.
[0030] Another mode of transportation, such as Figure 4 As shown, in this state, the valve core 3 rotates to a horizontal position. At this time, the valve core 3 completely separates the first channel 101 from the second channel 102. In this state, the powder and airflow pass through the material-air separation valve normally, and the material-air separation valve acts as a pipeline.
[0031] In this embodiment, a rotating shaft 4 is provided on one side of the valve core 3. The rotating shaft 4 is fixed to the valve core 3, and both ends of the rotating shaft 4 are rotatably connected to the valve body 1. One end of the rotating shaft 4 is poweredly connected to the driving device 5. In this embodiment, the driving device 5 is a pneumatic actuator. The pneumatic actuator is provided with a solenoid valve 8 for controlling the air circuit. The action of the pneumatic actuator can be controlled by the solenoid valve 8.
[0032] To facilitate maintenance of the internal valve core 3, removable valve covers 6 are provided on both sides of the valve body 1. The valve covers 6 are bolted to the valve body 1, and the end of the rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the valve cover 6 via a bearing structure. The valve cover 6 closest to the drive unit 5 is connected to the drive unit 5 via a mounting bracket 7.
[0033] In this embodiment, both ends of the first channel 101 are provided with pipes 9, and pipe connection flanges 901 are welded to the ends of the pipes 9. The pipe connection flanges 901 are connected to the valve body 1 by bolts.
[0034] A discharge port flange 10 is provided at the lower end of the second channel 102, and the discharge port flange 10 is connected to the hopper below by bolts.
[0035] The material-air separation valve disclosed in this embodiment enables powder to be directly fed into the silo during pneumatic conveying unloading, while the airflow containing a small amount of dust (about 2%) directly enters the main pipeline and returns to the raw material silo, avoiding waste, increasing the value of the powder, and reducing factory losses. When unloading on the branch line, there is no need to set up a separate cyclone separator or pulse dust collector, which reduces equipment investment and saves civil engineering investment.
[0036] The above described embodiments are only to illustrate the preferred modes of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application. Any modification and improvement made by those skilled in the art to the technical solutions of the present application without departing from the design spirit of the present application shall fall within the protection scope of the present application as defined by the claims.
