[0027] Figure 2 The system structure schematic diagram of the embodiment of the present application is shown in the figure. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The technical solutions of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the protection scope of the present application.

[0029] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that the terms "intermediate", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inner", "outer" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, which is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0030] As shown in Figure 1 The specific scheme of the embodiment is as follows: a method for irregular sampling of mineral aggregate, comprising the following steps:

[0031] S1, after receiving the belt feeding signal and the packaging sample barrel placement in place signal, the sampling machine is started;

[0032] It should be noted that, since the belt feeding signal and the packaging sample barrel placement in place signal are not necessarily received at the same time, when running the program, it is necessary to ensure that the two signals are received before sampling, and the program does not start and sampling does not occur when either signal is missing.

[0033] S2, control the sampling machine to collect mineral aggregate at a time, and send the mineral aggregate collected at a time to the sample splitting belt;

[0034] After the mineral aggregate collected at a time is placed on the sample splitting belt, the mineral aggregate collected at a time is sent to the sample splitter by the sample splitting belt for sample splitting, and the sample after sample splitting is loaded into the packaging sample barrel.

[0035] It should be noted that, after the sampling machine collects mineral aggregate at a time, the sampling machine enters a stopped state.

[0036] S3, the real-time weight of the existing mineral aggregate on the belt machine at this time is obtained as the instantaneous weight, and the interval time for the next sampling is calculated according to the instantaneous weight;

[0037] Among them, the flow weighing device is installed on the belt machine for real-time monitoring of the weight data on the belt, and the weight data here is always changing.

[0038] Secondly, the instantaneous weight represents a value taken out by the control end from the real-time monitoring weight data of the flow weighing device at the moment of sampling.

[0039] In this embodiment, after the instantaneous weight is obtained, the instantaneous weight is converted into an instantaneous weight value at a first predetermined ratio, the interval time value is calculated according to the instantaneous weight value at a second predetermined ratio, and the interval time is calculated according to the interval time value at a third predetermined ratio.

[0040] It should be noted that in the embodiment, the first predetermined ratio is 1:1, and the second preset ratio is 1:100 after obtaining the converted instantaneous weight value. The interval time value obtained by the second preset ratio conversion is converted into interval time by a ratio of 1:1.

[0041] It should be noted that in the embodiment, the calculated interval time is in seconds.

[0042] Since the instantaneous weight value is constantly changing, the interval time calculated based on the instantaneous weight value is also random, thereby reducing the possibility of human intervention in sampling time and making the sampling result more objective and safe.

[0043] S4, when the calculated interval time is reached, return to S2;

[0044] S5, repeat S2-S4 until there is no ore on the belt conveyor, and control the sampling machine to shut down.

[0045] In the embodiment, the original weight of the belt is used as the no-load weight. When the weight data detected by the material flow weighing device in real time is less than or equal to the no-load weight, it indicates that there is no ore conveying on the belt conveyor. At this time, the sampling machine is controlled to stop;

[0046] At the same time, when the weight data detected by the material flow weighing device in real time is greater than the no-load weight, the sampling machine is controlled to start.

[0047] By using real-time weight as the condition for starting and stopping the sampling machine, the energy consumption of the sampling machine can be reduced as much as possible.

[0048] From the starting point that the obtained real-time weight is greater than the no-load weight to the ending point that the real-time weight is less than or equal to the no-load weight, it indicates that the sampling of the same batch of ore is completed. After the samples taken multiple times during the period are all put into the packaging sample barrel, the samples in the packaging sample barrel are manually prepared.

[0049] Since the weight obtained by the material flow weighing device will change constantly along with the ore conveying on the belt conveyor, it can be ensured that the interval time obtained each time is different, thereby maximizing the randomness of the sampling interval time.

[0050] After the sampling in one stage is completed, the sampling machine is shut down, which can reduce the energy consumption to a certain extent.

[0051] It should be noted that when the same batch of ore is conveyed, the last interval time recorded in the program will be initialized before the next program is run.

[0052] The whole sampling system realizes one-key starting and remote operation, so that operation is more convenient, and the sampling interval time can be automatically changed according to the material flow quality at a high frequency through the system, so that the sampling interval time cannot be intervened by people, the human factors in the inspection process of raw materials and fuels into the factory are effectively reduced, the sampling collection is more objective and safe.

[0053] Based on the same technical concept as the foregoing method embodiments, the present application also provides an irregular-time sampling system for mineral materials, comprising a control module and an acquisition module, the acquisition module is used to acquire a belt feeding signal, a sample barrel packaging placement in place signal and an instantaneous weight, the control module is used to control the sampling machine to start single acquisition of mineral materials after receiving the belt feeding signal and the sample barrel packaging placement in place signal, and send the single-acquired mineral materials to a proportioning belt, and acquire the real-time weight of the existing mineral materials on the belt machine at this time as the instantaneous weight, calculate the interval time of next sampling according to the instantaneous weight, and control the sampling machine to single-acquire mineral materials again when the calculated interval time is reached, until there is no mineral material conveying on the belt machine, the sampling machine is stopped.

[0054] In the present system, the acquisition module acquires real-time weight, and the control module takes the real-time weight at that moment as the instantaneous weight when the sampling machine samples.

[0055] Through the above technical solution, the whole sampling system has simple structure principle, and the specific execution components all adopt common components and devices in existing technology, so that the later maintenance is very convenient.

[0056] The acquisition module is also used to monitor the weight data of the belt in real time through a material flow weighing device, and the weight data is actually a real-time weight that is constantly changing.

[0057] The control module further comprises comparing the weight data with a built-in weight parameter of the control module, the control module sets the original weight of the belt as the no-material weight as the built-in weight parameter of the control module; the control module compares the weight data with the no-material weight, if the weight data is less than or equal to the no-material weight, the control module controls the sampling machine to stop, and if the weight data is greater than the no-material weight, the control module controls the sampling machine to start.

[0058] In addition, after the control module acquires the instantaneous weight, the instantaneous weight is converted into an instantaneous weight value at a first predetermined ratio, the interval time value is calculated according to the instantaneous weight value at a second preset ratio, and the interval time is calculated according to the interval time value at a third preset ratio.

[0059] Specifically, the control module converts the instantaneous weight acquired by the acquisition module into an instantaneous weight value at a ratio of 1:1, calculates the interval time value according to the instantaneous weight value at a ratio of 1:100, and calculates the corresponding time according to the interval time value at a ratio of 1:1.

[0060] The whole use system completes the sampling of the mineral aggregate and the calculation of the sampling interval time, completely avoids the human intervention wind direction, and ensures the safety of the sampling result.

[0061] Working principle: the weight of the belt on the belt conveyor is monitored by the material flow weighing device at all times, and when the real-time weight is less than or equal to the no-material weight, it indicates that there is no ore material on the belt conveyor, and in the case of no ore material, the sampler is in a shutdown state, and once the real-time weight is greater than the no-material weight, it indicates that there is ore material on the belt conveyor, at which time the control end controls the sampler to be in a start state, and then sampling is started, and then the obtained sample is sent to the sample reduction belt, and then the sample is sent to the sample reduction machine by the sample reduction belt for sample reduction, and then the sample after sample reduction is loaded into a packaging sample barrel, at the moment when the sampler is running, the instantaneous weight at that moment is obtained, and the instantaneous weight is brought into the formula by the system to calculate the interval time of the next sampling, and after the interval time is reached, sampling is performed again, and the interval time of the next sampling is calculated again, and the operation is repeated until the real-time weight is less than or equal to the no-material weight again, and the sampler is controlled to be shut down by the system, and waits for the next belt conveyor to start conveying the mineral aggregate.

[0062] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it can be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, replacements and variations can be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirits of the present application, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
