[0013] Furthermore, the swing piece 64 is in an inverted V shape.

[0014] Furthermore, a fixing frame 66 is provided on the feed end cover 6 , a through hole 67 is provided in the fixing frame 66 , and the induction head of the first magnetic induction sensor 62 passes through the through hole 67 and is fixed to the fixing frame 66 .

[0015] Furthermore, a blanking valve 68 is provided in the blanking port 61 , and the blanking valve 68 is driven to rotate by a blanking motor 69 .

[0016] Furthermore, an extension piece 36 is provided at one side of the lower part of the rotating piece 33, and the second magnet 37 is provided on the extension piece 36.

[0017] Furthermore, the valve structure includes a material storage valve 41 disposed at the lower opening of the mixing box 4 , and the material storage valve 41 is driven to rotate by a material storage motor 42 .

[0018] The present invention discloses an abnormality sensing system of a plastic color matching machine. When the plastic raw material is to be conveyed into the mixing box 4, the valve located at the feed port 51 is opened (the feed port 51 is provided with a valve, and its specific structure is a prior art), and the plastic raw material in the feed hopper 2 falls into the mixing box 4 through the feed port 51. At this time, the height of the plastic raw material in the feed hopper 2 decreases, and the first magnet 65 drives the left side of the swing plate 64 (the side corresponding to the first magnetic induction sensor 62) to rotate downward under the action of gravity, while the right side of the swing plate 64 (the side corresponding to the drop port 61) rotates upward (the first magnet 65 is weakly magnetic, and under the action of gravity of the single-sided first magnet 65 , its magnetic attraction force is not enough to produce magnetic attraction with the feed end cover 6). At this time, the first magnetic induction sensor 62 cannot sense the magnetism of the first magnet 65, and it controls the blanking motor 69 to work through the control system. The output shaft of the blanking motor 69 drives the blanking valve 68 to rotate and open, and the plastic raw material is transported to the inside of the feed hopper 2 through the blanking pipe and the blanking port 61. When the plastic raw material falls through the blanking port 61, it will contact the right side of the swinging piece 64, which pushes the right side of the swinging piece 64 to rotate downward and the left side to rotate upward. As the plastic raw material keeps falling, the swinging piece 64 keeps swinging left and right, and the first magnet 65 on the left side of the swinging piece 64 cannot contact the first magnetic induction sensor. The induction cooperation of the sensor 62 reaches more than five seconds, so the blanking port 61 keeps the blanking state. When the plastic raw materials in the mixing box 4 reach the specified amount, the valve of the feed port 51 is closed, and the blanking pipe continues to transport the plastic raw materials into the feed hopper 2 through the blanking port 61. When the feed hopper 2 is full of plastic raw materials, the plastic raw materials will be piled up on the upper right side of the swing plate 64 (because the plastic raw materials fall from the blanking port 61, they will first fill up the upper side of the swing plate 64 corresponding to the blanking port 61), so that the right side of the swing plate 64 rotates downward and the left side rotates upward. The first magnet 65 on the left side of the swing plate 64 and the first magnetic induction sensor 62 induction cooperation for more than five seconds , which proves that the feed hopper 2 is full of plastic raw materials, the first magnetic induction sensor 62 sends a signal to the control system, and the control system controls the blanking motor 69 to work, and the output shaft of the blanking motor 69 drives the blanking valve 68 to rotate and close, and the blanking stops. When the first magnet 65 and the first magnetic induction sensor 62 are inductively matched for too long (which can be set, usually 3-5 minutes), that is, the feed hopper 2 has not transported plastic raw materials to the mixing box 4 for a long time, it proves that the mixing box 4 or the storage box 3 or the barrel of the injection molding machine is abnormal, and the first magnetic induction sensor 62 sends a signal to the control system, and the control system issues an alarm to remind the staff to check the abnormality;When the plastic raw material and toner in the mixing box 4 are mixed and stirred, the storage motor 42 drives the storage valve 41 to rotate and open, so that the mixed material in the mixing box 4 falls downward into the storage box 3. The lower opening of the storage box 3 is connected to the barrel of the injection molding machine, and a barrel valve is also provided at the lower opening of the storage box 3 (the specific structure of the barrel valve is the existing technology). The barrel valve is opened to allow the mixed material in the storage box 3 to fall downward into the barrel. If there is enough mixed material in the barrel during heating and mixing, the valve is closed, and the storage box 3 stops conveying the mixed material downward, while the plastic raw material and toner continue to be mixed and stirred in the mixing box 4. After the mixing is completed, the mixed material continues to be conveyed into the storage box 3 until the height of the stored mixed material reaches the position of the rotating piece 33, and the rotating piece 33 is pushed by the mixed material, so that the connecting ear 34 on the upper part of the rotating piece 33 is wound around the fixed The shaft 32 rotates upward, and the rotating piece 34 drives the second magnet 37 to rotate upward through the extension piece 36, so that the second magnet 37 is out of induction cooperation with the second magnetic induction sensor 11 on the outer wall of the storage box 3, proving that the storage box 3 is full of mixed material. At this time, the second magnetic induction sensor 11 sends a signal to the control system, and the control system controls the storage motor 42 to drive the storage valve 41 to close, and the mixing box 4 stops mixing and stirring. When the mixed material needs to be transported to the barrel, the barrel valve is opened to allow the mixed material in the storage box 3 to fall into the barrel. At this time, the mixed material in the storage box 3 drops, and the second magnet 37 drives the rotating piece 33 to rotate downward under the action of gravity, so that the second magnet 37 is inductively matched with the second magnetic induction sensor 11 again. At this time, the mixing box 3 continues to mix and stir, and transports the stirred mixed material to the storage box 3. The present invention provides an abnormality sensing system for a plastic color matching machine. First, one end of a swinging piece 64 is used to correspond to a material drop opening 61, and the other end is provided with a first magnet 65 and a first magnetic induction sensor 62 on a feed end cover 6, which can automatically sense the material drop opening 61 and whether the feed hopper 2 is full of plastic raw materials, thereby eliminating the need for workers to stare at the equipment operation for a long time, reducing the labor intensity of workers, and sensing whether there is an abnormality in a mixing box 4 or a storage box 3 or a barrel of an injection molding machine, so as to detect the abnormality in time and facilitate workers to inspect and repair; second, by providing a second magnet on one side of a rotating piece 34 37, the second magnet 37 is inductively matched with the second magnetic induction sensor 11 on the outer wall of the storage box 3. When the storage box 4 is full of mixed materials, the mixed materials can push the rotating piece 34 and the second magnet 37 to rotate, so that the second magnet 37 and the second magnetic induction sensor 11 are out of inductive matching, which proves that the storage box 4 is full of mixed materials, and the mixing box 3 stops mixing and stirring, and automatically closes the storage valve 41. On the contrary, it proves that the mixed materials in the storage box 4 are insufficient, and the mixing box 3 continues mixing and stirring, and transports the mixed materials to the storage box 4. There is no need for workers to watch the equipment operation for a long time, which can effectively reduce the labor intensity of workers. ;
