[0039] like Figure 3 , 10 As shown, there are two slide bars B24 sliding vertically in two slide grooves 180 degrees apart circumferentially on the circular ring A22, and the upper end of the slide bar B24 has a limit block to prevent it from falling off the circular ring A22 downward; the lower ends of the two slide bars B24 are installed with a circular ring B25, and the circular ring B25 is connected to the circular ring A22 through a compressed spring A27; two horizontal round pins 26 180 degrees apart circumferentially on the circular ring B25 are matched with two guide seats B41 on the inner wall of the cylinder A2 in a one-to-one manner, so that when the cylinder B7 is driven by the vortex spring A6, the telescopic rod 28 is driven to drop a height as a whole every 45 degrees of rotation, and at the same time, there is a height difference between any two adjacent arc grooves 38 in the track mechanism 32, to ensure that the telescopic rod 28 will not instantly enter the adjacent arc grooves 38 driven by the vortex spring A6.

[0040] like Figure 3 , 10 As shown, the guide seat B41 has steps A42, B43, C44 and D45 corresponding to the vertical grooves A33, B34, C35 and D36 in the corresponding track mechanism 32, and the heights of step A42, step B43, step C44 and step D45 decrease successively, so that the cylinder B7 drives the telescopic rod 28 to drop a height as a whole every 45 degrees when driven by the vortex spring A6, and at the same time, there is a height difference between any two adjacent arc grooves 38 in the track mechanism 32, so as to ensure that the telescopic rod 28 will not instantly enter the adjacent arc grooves 38 when driven by the vortex spring A6.

[0041] like Figure 4 , 8 As shown, a cylinder E58 is installed in the circular groove in the middle of the lower end of the barrel B52; a plug 62 moves vertically in the cylinder E58 to open and close the discharge ports 55 at the bottom of all silos B53 through the circular groove at the bottom of the barrel B52; a slide bar C61 is installed at the lower end of the plug 62, and the slide bar C61 slides vertically in a guide sleeve 60 installed in the cylinder E58 through a fixed rod 59; the gear 63 installed on the guide sleeve 60 is meshed with the teeth on the slide bar C61, and the shaft B64 where the gear 63 is located is rotationally matched with the circular groove on the wall of the cylinder E58; the turbine 65 installed on the shaft B64 is meshed with the worm 66 installed on the outside of the cylinder E58, and a manual twist wheel 67 is installed on the worm 66.

[0042] like Figure 4As shown, the silo bottom 54 of the eight silos in the barrel B52 is a fine mesh structure that does not leak materials, and an annular area surrounding the circular groove at the bottom of the barrel B52 is formed between the silo bottom 54 and the bottom of the barrel B52, and an air inlet pipe 56 connected to the annular area is installed on the side wall of the annular area; an exhaust pipe 57 connected to the wall of each silo B53 is installed.

[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, a circular plate 51 for covering all the silos B53 is installed on the top of the barrel B52, and a ring plate 49 is rotatably fitted in the coaxial annular groove on the circular plate 51; two discharge channels B47 circumferentially 180 degrees apart and connected to the cylinder D46 are installed on both sides of the lower end of the cylinder D46, and the two discharge channels B47 are fixedly connected to the ring plate 49 and are connected to the barrel B52 through the discharge holes 50 on the ring plate 49 respectively; the inner bottom of the cylinder D46 has two slopes 48 for guiding the material into the discharge channel B47.

[0044] The working process of the present invention is as follows: in the initial state, the two baffles A10 are in an open state with respect to the hopper 8, the two baffles B15 are in a closed state with respect to the lower end of the cylinder B7, the vortex spring A6, the vortex spring B12, the spring A27 and the spring B30 are all in a compressed state, the two levers 21 are in contact with the upper end surface of the ring sleeve 4 and are respectively in contact with the corresponding protrusions 5 in the circumferential direction, the ends of the inner rods 31 of the two telescopic rods 28 are both located at the upper end of the vertical groove A33 in the corresponding track mechanism 32, and the two round pins 26 are both located on the steps A42 in the corresponding guide seat B41. The two discharge channels A9 are respectively opposite to the two silos A14, and the two discharge channels B47 are respectively opposite to the two silos B53. The plug 62 is in a closed state with respect to all silos B53.

[0045] When the present invention is required to weigh and store four materials according to the mixing ratio and to perform pre-processing before mixing, the height of the arc grooves 38 in the two track mechanisms 32 is first adjusted according to the mixing ratio of the four materials, so as to ensure that when each material reaches the required weight in the cylinder B7, the cylinder B7 will be rotated 45 degrees driven by the vortex spring A6 for unloading.

[0046] The method for adjusting the height of the arc groove 38 in the track mechanism 32 is as follows: loosen the nut 40 on each arc groove 38 on each track mechanism 32 to unlock the arc groove 38, and move the height of the arc groove 38 according to the weight ratio of the corresponding material. The greater the weight ratio of the material, the lower the height of the corresponding arc groove 38, and the smaller the weight ratio of the material, the higher the height of the corresponding arc groove 38. After the height adjustment of the arc groove 38 is completed, tighten the nut 40 to lock the arc groove 38.

[0047] Then, the material A corresponding to the vertical slot A33 in the track mechanism 32 is first added into the cylinder B7 through the two opened baffles A10 by the transmission device, and the entered material A stays on the two baffles B15.

[0048] As the amount of material A on the two baffles B15 increases, the cylinder B7 drives the ring sleeve 4, the barrel A13 and the two telescopic rods 28 to move downward synchronously, and the spring A27 is further compressed.

[0049] When material A reaches the required weight, the two telescopic rods 28 just arrive at the arc groove 38 between the vertical groove A33 and the corresponding vertical groove B34 in the two track mechanisms 32 at the same time and release the rotation limit of the cylinder B7. Under the action of the vortex spring A6, the cylinder B7 drives the two telescopic rods 28, the two round pins 26, the two discharge channels A9 and the two discharge channels B47 to rotate 45 degrees synchronously, so that the inner rods 31 of the two telescopic rods 28 enter the vertical groove B34 in the corresponding track mechanism 32. At the same time, the two round pins 26 fall from the step A42 of the corresponding guide seat B41 to the step B43.

[0050] During the 45-degree rotation of the cylinder B7, the two levers 21 interact with the corresponding protrusions 5 on the ring sleeve 4, and the two levers 21 drive the corresponding baffles B15 to open quickly through the slide bar A20, the connecting rod B19, and the support rod B18. The two baffles B15 drive the corresponding baffles A10 to close quickly through the corresponding connecting rods A16 and the support rods A17, and prevent the remaining material A in the transmission device from continuing to fall into the cylinder B7. Instead, it is quickly recovered into the corresponding two silos A14 on the barrel A13 through the two discharge channels A9 under the guidance of the two baffles A10. At the same time, the material A of the cylinder B7 that reaches the required weight falls to the bottom of the cylinder D46 and quickly enters the corresponding two silos B53 for storage through the two discharge channels B47 under the guidance of the two slopes 48. When the two discharge channels A9 simultaneously begin to separate from the two silos A14 containing recovered material A and enter the next silo A14, the material A remaining in the transmission device has completely entered the silo to be recovered. At the same time, the quantitative material A in the cylinder B7 has also completed the transfer and storage to the corresponding two silos B53.

[0051] When the cylinder B7 completes a 45-degree rotation, the two levers 21 have separated from the original protrusions 5 and circumferentially abut against the new protrusions 5. At this time, the two baffles A10 are quickly opened under the reset action of the corresponding two vortex springs B12, and the two baffles A10 drive the corresponding baffles B15 to close the lower end of the cylinder B7 through a corresponding series of transmissions.

[0052] Following the above process, the remaining materials B, C and D are weighed in turn and stored in the corresponding silos B53 in the barrel A13.

[0053] After the material D is weighed and stored, the inner rods 31 of the two telescopic rods 28 are respectively located in the outermost arc grooves 38 of the side walls of the vertical grooves D36 in the corresponding track mechanism 32, the two round pins 26 are respectively located on the steps D45 of the corresponding guide seats B41, and the spring A27 is in a further compressed state.

[0054] Then, first manually reverse the cylinder B7 by 45 degrees and compress the vortex spring A6, so that the cylinder B7 drives the two telescopic rods 28 into the vertical slot D36 of the corresponding track mechanism 32 and the two round pins 26 are separated from the steps D45 on the corresponding guide seat B41 and reach the top of the step C44. Then, manually pull the cylinder B7 upward, so that the cylinder B7 drives the two telescopic rods 28 and the two round pins 26 to move upward to the limit, so that the inner rods 31 of the two telescopic rods 28 enter the horizontal slot 37 in the corresponding track mechanism 32 and the two round pins 26 reach the top of the corresponding guide seat B41.

[0055] Then, the cylinder B7 is manually reversed, so that the cylinder B7 drives the two telescopic rods 28 and the two round pins 26 to complete the circumferential reset, the inner rods 31 of the two telescopic rods 28 respectively reach the upper part of the vertical groove A33 of the corresponding track mechanism 32, and the two round pins 26 reach the upper part of the step A42 of the corresponding guide seat B41. The vortex spring A6 is compressed to the initial state.

[0056] Next, the cylinder B7 is manually pressed down to make it move vertically downward. The cylinder B7 drives the two telescopic rods 28B and the two round pins 26 to reset vertically downward synchronously. The two telescopic rods 28 enter the vertical groove A33 from the horizontal groove 37 of the corresponding track mechanism 32 to complete the reset. The two round pins 26 reach the step A42 of the corresponding guide seat B41 to complete the reset. The two discharge channels A9 are reset relative to the barrel A13, and the two discharge channels B47 are reset relative to the barrel B52.

[0057] When the four materials stored in the silo B53 of the barrel B52 need to be dried or humidified before blending, hot air or humid air is blown to all the materials in the silo B53 through the air inlet pipe 56 and the silo bottom 54, and the air entering the silo B53 is discharged through the exhaust pipe 57 to complete the circulation of the air in the silo B53, so that the materials in the silo B53 can be effectively dried or humidified.

[0058] After the materials in all the silos B53 in the barrel B52 are dried or humidified, the twist wheel 67 is manually rotated, and the twist wheel 67 drives the plug 62 to open the discharge ports of all the silos B53 through the worm 66, the turbine 65, the shaft B64, the gear 63 and the slide bar C61. The four materials fall downward into the mixer through the cylinder E58 in the required mixing ratio for the mixing process.

[0059] After all the materials in the barrel B52 are discharged, the twist wheel 67 is rotated in the reverse direction to drive the plug 62 to close the discharge ports of all the bins B53.

[0060] In summary, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention integrates material storage and material weighing, and the present invention weighs four materials in turn according to the required proportion by adjusting the height of the arc groove 38 in the track mechanism 32. When each material reaches its required weight, the two baffles B15 at the lower end of the cylinder B7 are quickly opened to discharge the quantitative materials into the corresponding two bins B53 in the lower barrel B52 for storage. At the same time, the two baffles A10 in the hopper 8 at the upper end of the cylinder B7 are quickly closed to prevent the upper material from continuing to enter the cylinder B7 and guide the fallen material back into the corresponding two bins A14 on the barrel A13, so that the four materials are weighed first and then stored in turn, thereby greatly simplifying the material storage process.

[0061] After the materials are weighed first and then stored, the invention can directly proceed to the next blending process of four materials, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of material storage and blending.

[0062] The bottom of the barrel B52 in the present invention has a structure for drying or humidifying the materials stored in all the silos B53 as needed, thereby reducing the number of material storage and blending equipment and reducing the space occupied by the equipment.

[0063] In addition, the present invention does not rely on electricity for the load-bearing of materials, and can ensure that material processing, storage and blending continue in the event of a power outage, thereby improving work efficiency.
