A powder spray chamber 9 is provided inside the powder spray head body 3, and the first opening is connected to the powder spray chamber 9. The high-voltage discharge needle 4 is arranged in the powder spray chamber 9, and a powder supply pipe 10 is connected to the lower end of the powder spray chamber 9.

[0031] The upper powder spray lip 7 is arranged at the lower end of the powder spray head body 6, and a receiving cavity is provided inside the upper powder spray lip 7. A second opening is provided at the lower end of the receiving cavity. The ceramic ball 8 is received in the receiving cavity. The diameter of the ceramic ball 8 is larger than the aperture of the second opening to avoid the ceramic ball 8 from falling from the second opening, and the diameter of the ceramic ball 8 is preferably slightly larger than the aperture of the second opening to achieve a better powder blocking effect; the second opening and the first opening are arranged correspondingly up and down, and the apertures of the second opening and the first opening are preferably larger than the aperture of the metal can cover hole by 3-5 mm, preferably 3.5 mm.

[0032] Preferably, a recovery chamber 11 is further provided inside the powder spray head body 3, the first opening is communicated with the recovery chamber 11, and a powder recovery pipe is connected to the lower end of the recovery chamber 11; in this embodiment, the lower end of the recovery chamber 11 is specifically connected to a first powder recovery pipe 12 and a second powder recovery pipe 13, that is, the recovery chamber 11 is connected to two powder recovery pipes to achieve a better powder recovery effect, and the first powder recovery pipe 12 and the second powder recovery pipe 13 are respectively located on both sides of the recovery chamber 11. In addition, various joints 20 can be provided outside the powder spray head body 3 to respectively connect the above-mentioned powder supply pipe 10, the first powder recovery pipe 12, and the second powder recovery pipe 13, so that the powder supply pipe 10 can be conveniently connected to an external powder supply device, etc.

[0033] Specifically, the powder spray head 1 further includes a high voltage generator 14 , which is disposed inside the powder spray head body 3 and connected to the high voltage discharge needle 4 , and is used to provide high voltage to the high voltage discharge needle 4 .

[0034] Preferably, the powder spray head 1 also includes a blow needle air joint 15, which is arranged on the outside of the powder spray head body 3, and a mounting tube is provided in the powder spray chamber 9, and the high-voltage discharge needle 4 is partially arranged inside the mounting tube.

[0037] Preferably, the powder spray head 2 also includes a ceramic ball anti-absorption rod 18, which is inserted into the accommodating cavity and located between the lower port of the third powder recovery pipe 17 and the ceramic ball 8 to prevent the ceramic ball 8 from blocking the third powder recovery pipe 17.

[0038] In addition, preferably, the powder spray head 2 may further include a buffer 19, which is disposed at the lower end of the powder spray head body 6. When the powder spray head 1 is brought up with the can cover and contacts the powder spray head 2, the buffer 19 can play a buffering effect to avoid crushing the can cover. Specifically, the upper end of the powder spray head body 6 is fixedly connected to the frame.

[0039] The working process of the automatic powder spraying equipment for metal can cover holes of the present invention is as follows (1) and (2):

[0040] (1) During powder spraying: the workpiece to be powder sprayed (i.e., the iron can lid) enters the powder spraying position, the powder spraying head 1 rises, and the workpiece is positioned by the station positioning member 16; so that the powder spraying head 1, the can lid thereon, and the powder spraying pressure head 2 are pressed together, and the upper powder spraying lip 7 and the lower powder spraying lip 5 are respectively attached to the upper and lower surfaces of the can lid, which plays a role in sealing and preventing the powder from escaping. Among them, the second opening of the upper powder spraying lip 7, the metal can lid hole, and the first opening of the lower powder spraying lip 5 are correspondingly arranged from top to bottom; at this time, the suction of the first powder recovery pipe 12, the second powder recovery pipe 13, and the third powder recovery pipe 17 are all in a weak vacuum state. The air flow carrying powder is ejected from the powder supply pipe 10 and enters the powder spraying chamber 9. The high-voltage generator 14 provides high voltage to the high-voltage discharge needle 4. The high-voltage discharge needle 4 releases the charge in the powder spraying chamber 9. The powder ejected from the powder supply pipe 10 is charged when passing through the powder spraying chamber 9. Further, the charged powder is sprayed toward the area near the trimming of the metal can cover hole through the first opening of the lower powder spraying lip 5. At this time, the powder ejected from the first opening is blocked toward the trimming direction of the metal can cover hole by the ceramic ball 8 in the upper powder spraying lip 7. The ceramic ball 8 rotating and tumbling in the upper powder spraying lip 7 can effectively block the ejected powder back to the trimming circumference of the metal can cover hole. Figure 8 As shown, the charged powder will be adsorbed on the cut edge and surrounding of the metal can cover hole to form a spray layer; and when the sprayed powder-carrying airflow is too large, the ceramic ball 8 can block it to adjust the pressure and flow rate, so that the cut edge of the metal can cover hole will not be effectively adhered to by the powder due to the excessive gas flow rate, thereby better ensuring that the powder covers the cut edge of the hole evenly.

[0041] (2) When powder spraying stops: The above powder spraying process is completed in a very short time. After powder spraying is completed, the powder spraying head 1 descends so that the powder spraying head 1, the powder spraying head 2 and the tank cover are disengaged, the powder supply pipe 10 stops supplying powder, and the suction of the first powder recovery pipe 12 and the second powder recovery pipe 13 are switched to a strong vacuum state, so that the entire recovery chamber 11 maintains a negative pressure, and air enters the recovery chamber 11 from the first opening of the lower powder spraying lip 5. The powder in the recovery chamber 11 is recovered through the first powder recovery pipe 12 and the second powder recovery pipe 13; in addition, the suction of the third powder recovery pipe 17 of the powder spraying head 2 is also switched to a strong vacuum state. Switch to a strong vacuum state, and a strong suction force is generated inside the powder spray head cavity (i.e., the receiving cavity) due to the third powder recovery pipe 17, so that the ceramic balls 8 in the upper powder spray lip 7 are adsorbed around the ceramic ball anti-suction rod 18 (the function of the ceramic ball anti-suction rod 18 is to prevent the ceramic balls 8 from blocking the third powder recovery pipe 17 and causing the powder spray head cavity to have no suction force). At this time, the second opening of the upper powder spray lip 7 is in an open state because there is no obstruction by the ceramic balls 8, and air enters the powder spray head cavity from the second opening of the upper powder spray lip 7, so that the powder in the powder spray head cavity is recovered by the third powder recovery pipe 17 and cleaned.

[0042] Among them, the upper powder spraying lip 7 and the lower powder spraying lip 5 are in direct contact with the metal can cover, so they need to be resistant to high temperature, have good sealing and meet food safety requirements. Preferably, the upper powder spraying lip 7 and the lower powder spraying lip 5 are made of a silicone base material and a curing agent mixed in a certain proportion, and are made by injection molding with a customized mold. The powder spraying lips can withstand a high temperature of 300°C and meet food safety requirements. In addition, preferably, during the powder spraying process, the metal can cover is grounded through the buffer 19; and the above-mentioned high-voltage discharge needle 4 releases 30,000-100,000 volts of high-voltage static electricity, so that the powder with high-voltage static electricity is better adsorbed on the cut edge of the metal can cover hole, thereby improving the powder spraying effect.

[0043] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an automatic powder spraying device for metal can cover holes, which has the following beneficial effects: (1) The present invention is provided with a high-voltage discharge needle to discharge in the powder spraying chamber, and the powder is charged with a high-voltage charge when passing through the powder spraying chamber. The charged powder is sprayed to the area near the cut edge of the metal can cover hole through the lower powder spraying lip and is adsorbed on the cut edge. In addition, the present invention is provided with a ceramic ball, which can better block the sprayed powder on the cut edge of the metal can cover hole, and the charged powder will be adsorbed on the cut edge and the surrounding area of ​​the hole; when the sprayed powder-carrying airflow is too large, the ceramic ball plays a role in regulating the pressure and flow rate, so that the cut edge of the hole will not be washed away by the adsorbed powder due to the excessive airflow speed, and the powder is better guaranteed to cover the cut edge of the hole evenly; in the above manner, the present invention can better solve the problem of powder covering the cut edge of the metal can cover hole, that is, better enable the powder to play a role in rust prevention for the metal can cover hole, so that the metal can cover can better meet the food safety requirements. (2) The ceramic ball has good properties such as high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and high compressive strength, thereby ensuring its use effect and service life. (3) The automatic powder spraying equipment of the present invention can be applied to the production of automated production lines.

[0044] It should be noted that the terms "include", "comprises" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, an element defined by the sentence "comprises a ..." does not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the element.
