Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field related to particle size detection, and in particular to a particle size multi-vision detection device and application thereof in potassium chloride detection. Background Art

[0002] Potassium chloride is a common agricultural potash fertilizer. Its main component is potassium chloride (KCl), with the main component (KCl) content ranging from 79.14% to 99.72%, and the corresponding potassium oxide (K2O) content ranging from 50% to 63%. Potassium chloride is one of the most widely used potash fertilizers in agriculture due to its high potassium content, complete water solubility, and low price. In actual production, fertilizer particle size testing helps ensure that the physical properties of potassium chloride granules, such as crushing resistance and granule strength, meet standard requirements. This can reduce breakage losses during transportation, storage, and use, thereby improving fertilizer utilization and application effectiveness.

[0039] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] In addition, when an element in the present invention is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation method.

[0041] See also Figures 1-11 In an embodiment of the present invention, a particle size multi-visual inspection device includes a support 1 and a conveyor belt 2 provided on the support 1, and also includes a material cutting plate 14, a visual inspection module 4 and a residual material removal mechanism;

[0042] Among them, the cutting plate 14 is set in a "V" shape, and a plurality of the cutting plates 14 are fixed on the support 1. The heights of the plurality of cutting plates 14 gradually decrease along the material transmission direction. The visual inspection module 4 is provided above the conveyor belt 2. The plurality of visual inspection modules 4 and the plurality of cutting plates 14 are staggered. The visual inspection module 4 is used to photograph the material passing through the cutting plate 14 and transmit the acquired material image to a computer, which analyzes and evaluates the particle size of the material. Specifically, a plurality of mounting brackets 3 are fixed on the support 1, the cutting plates 14 are fixed on the mounting brackets 3, and the visual inspection module 4 is provided on the mounting brackets 3. During specific implementation, corresponding fill lights are also provided on the mounting brackets 3 to provide a good environment for shooting the visual inspection module 4.

[0043] Furthermore, the principle of material analysis using the visual inspection module 4 shooting method in this application is mainly based on machine vision technology. The visual inspection module 4 captures the material image and analyzes the image in combination with image processing and artificial intelligence algorithms, thereby realizing the identification and particle size measurement evaluation of the material, reflecting the particle size index of the material (fertilizer), and evaluating whether its physical properties meet the standard requirements;

[0044] The residual material removing mechanism is provided with a group on each of the plurality of the material cutting plates 14 , and the movement trajectory of the residual material removing mechanism is V-shaped, and is used to remove the material intercepted by the material cutting plates 14 from the conveyor belt 2 .

[0045] Secondly, it should be specifically explained that, compared with the flat-plate setting, the plurality of the cutting plates 14 are set in a "V" shape. During the operation of the device, when the material passes through the cutting plates 14, the cutting plates 14 can limit the height of the material, so that the accumulated and uneven upper material is intercepted by the cutting plates 14, and under the action of the shape of the cutting plates 14, the material can be deflected toward the outside of the conveyor belt 2 along the inclined direction, which has a material dispersion effect and can improve the uniformity of material dispersion, ensuring that the subsequent visual inspection module 4 can obtain a flat material image. Therefore, the visual inspection module 4 can obtain a flat material surface when shooting to avoid detection blind spots caused by material obstruction and unevenness, which is convenient for the subsequent computer to perform particle size analysis and evaluation of the material based on the material image.

[0046] Secondly, since there are multiple cutting plates 14 arranged along the material transmission direction above the conveyor belt 2, and the heights of the multiple cutting plates 14 gradually decrease along the material transmission direction, during the working process, the material will pass through the multiple cutting plates 14 in turn, and the stacking depth of the material will be gradually reduced, and after each reduction, there will be a corresponding visual inspection module 4 to take pictures of the material. Therefore, the device can obtain images of different layers of the material, realize the multi-visual inspection function of the material, and ensure the comprehensiveness of the material particle size detection.

[0047] Please refer again Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 as well as Figure 8 The residual material removal mechanism includes two inclined plates 16 fixed on the material cutting plate 14 and two scrapers 26 movably provided on the two inclined plates 16; it also includes a driving component installed on the material cutting plate 14 and capable of driving the two scrapers 26 to move along the length direction of the two inclined plates 16 respectively, and the height of the scraper 26 can be changed by a switching component provided on the inclined plate 16.

[0048] Specifically, as the material is conveyed, the material intercepted by the material cutting plate 14 will accumulate on the side of the material cutting plate 14 away from the material conveying direction. Then, the driving assembly moves forward, so that the scraper 26 moves along the length direction of the inclined plate 16 toward the midpoint of the inclined plate 16 (i.e., the middle of the conveyor belt 2). During this process, the bottom end of the scraper 26 is higher than the bottom end of the material cutting plate 14, thereby preventing the scraper 26 from moving the accumulated material to the middle of the conveyor belt 2.

[0049] When the scraper 26 moves to the end point of its stroke, the switching assembly is triggered to drive the scraper 26 downward until the bottom end of the scraper 26 is at the same height as the bottom end of the material cutting plate 14. Subsequently, the driving assembly moves in the opposite direction, and the scraper 26 moves along the length direction of the inclined plate 16 toward the outside of the conveyor belt 2. During this process, the scraper 26 can scrape off the material intercepted by the material cutting plate 14, thereby avoiding the problem of excessive material accumulation on the conveyor belt 2 causing the material to spill.

[0050] In detail, a plurality of guide hoppers 5 are provided on both sides of the support 1. The material scraped by the scraper 26 falls into the guide hopper 5, and then falls into the material transfer trough 6 provided on the support 1 through the guide hopper 5. In specific implementation, an auger conveyor can be provided at the tail end of the material transfer trough 6. The material enters the auger conveyor from the material transfer trough 6 and is transferred to the discharge end.

[0051] In addition, a plurality of baffle plates 7 are fixed on both sides of the support 1. The upper portion of the baffle plates 7 is higher than the upper surface of the conveyor belt 2. The baffle plates 7 are used to enclose the materials during the material transmission process to prevent the materials from rolling down during the transmission process.

[0052] Please refer again Figure 9 and Figure 10 A guide groove 1601 is provided on the inclined plate 16 along the length direction, and the switching component includes a slider 17 slidably engaged in the guide groove 1601, and two columns 18 are fixed on the slider 17, and one of the columns 18 is connected to the driving component; an in-place rebound structure is provided between the two columns 18, and the in-place rebound structure is connected to the scraper 26 for driving the scraper 26 to perform a lifting action. The rebound structure includes two sleeves 19 slidably mounted on the two uprights 18, and a follower plate 20 fixed between the two sleeves 19. Two lugs 2001 are formed at each end of the follower plate 20. The follower plate 20 is slidably connected to two transmission rods 24 via the lugs 2001. Each transmission rod 24 is provided with a set of elastic members. The upper ends of the two transmission rods 24 are fixedly connected to second lugs 2401, and their lower ends are fixed to the scraper 26 via connecting arms 25. The two sleeves 19 are also fixedly connected to first lugs 15. The first and second lugs 15 and 2401 cooperate with a fixed plate 27 fixed to the tilting plate 16. The elastic members include a first spring 21 and a second spring 22, which are mounted on the outer circumference of the transmission rods 24, with their tail ends abutting the lugs 2001. The head ends of the first and second springs 21 and 22 are connected to a ring 23 fixed to the transmission rod 24. The fixed plate 27 is provided with an inclined groove body 2705 and a closed groove body respectively adapted to the first boss 2401 and the second boss 15. The first boss 2401 and the second boss 15 are respectively located in the inclined groove body 2705 and the closed groove body and are slidably connected to the fixed plate 27, and the closed groove body is arranged in a rectangular shape.

[0053] In order to facilitate the detailed description of the movement process of the above components in the following, the closed slot body is divided into a first slot section 2701, a second slot section 2702, a third slot section 2703 and a fourth slot section 2704 which are connected;

[0054] Attach Figure 8 Taking the state shown as an example, at this time, the first protrusion 2401 is located at the connection between the first groove section 2701 and the second groove section 2702, the second protrusion 15 is located at one end of the inclined groove body 2705 close to the fourth groove section 2704, the scraper 26 is away from the middle position of the conveyor belt 2, and the bottom end of the scraper 26 is higher than the bottom end of the cutting plate 14;

[0055] When the residual material is cleaned, the driving mechanism moves forward and cooperates with the column 18, so that the column 18 drives the slider 17 to slide in the guide groove 1601 toward the middle of the conveyor belt 2. Accordingly, the first boss 15 will move along the inclined groove 2705 and slide with the fixed plate 27, so that the two sleeves 19 slide down on the two columns 18, driving the follower plate 20 to move downward. At the same time, the second boss 2401 slides in the first groove section 2701 toward the second groove section 2702, and the first spring 2 1 is compressed, and when the scraper 26 reaches the end of its stroke, that is, the second protrusion 2401 reaches the connection between the first slot section 2701 and the second slot section 2702, the first spring 21 rebounds, causing the transmission rod 24 to drive the scraper 26 downward through the connecting arm 25, and the scraper 26 is inserted into the material intercepted by the material cutting plate 14. The second protrusion 2401 reaches the connection between the second slot section 2702 and the third slot section 2703 along the second slot section 2702, and the bottom end of the scraper 26 remains flush with the bottom end of the material cutting plate 14;

[0056] Subsequently, the driving assembly moves in the reverse direction, and the column 18 drives the slider 17 to slide in the guide groove 1601 toward the outside of the conveyor belt 2. During this process, the scraper 26 can scrape the material intercepted by the cutting plate 14 toward the outside of the conveyor belt 2, and finally these materials fall into the guide hopper 5. The first protrusion 15 slides with the fixed plate 27 through the inclined groove body 2705 again, so that the two sleeves 19 drive the follower plate 20 to move upward, and the second protrusion 2401 moves along the third The groove section 2703 slides toward the fourth groove section 2704, and the second spring 22 is compressed. When the scraper 26 reaches the end of its stroke, that is, the second protrusion 2401 reaches the connection between the third groove section 2703 and the fourth groove section 2704, the second spring 22 rebounds, and the transmission rod 24 drives the scraper 26 upward through the connecting arm 25, so that the bottom end of the scraper 26 is again higher than the bottom end of the cutting plate 14. The second protrusion 2401 returns to the connection between the first groove section 2701 and the fourth groove section 2704.

[0057] In summary, by utilizing the inclined trough 2705 and the closed trough, as well as the compression and rebound of the first spring 21 and the second spring 22, the scraper 26 can automatically adjust its height when removing the residual material, thereby preventing the residual material from being pushed to the middle of the conveyor belt 2 when it moves toward the middle of the conveyor belt 2.

[0058] Of course, by arranging an electric push rod on the slider 17 and directly fixing the scraper 26 to the movable end of the electric push rod, whenever the slider 17 reaches the end point of the stroke, the electric push rod drives the height of the scraper 26. This arrangement can also achieve the above-mentioned effect. However, this driving method requires programming or sensor control between the electric push rod and the driving component. This will increase the production input cost on the one hand, and on the other hand, when a problem occurs in one of the links, the scraper 26 will fail to clear the residual material, thereby affecting the detection rhythm of the device, and as the amount of material accumulation increases, it is also easy to cause material to spill, resulting in material waste problems. To this end, the present application realizes automatic adjustment of the height of the scraper 26 through mechanical coordination, without relying on complex programming or sensor control, thereby reducing input costs, and the reliability of mechanical coordination is high.

[0059] Please refer again Figure 7 The driving assembly includes two movable blocks 30 symmetrically slidably arranged on the cutting plate 14 and a driving arm 31 fixedly mounted on the movable block 30. The driving arm 31 is provided with a strip through groove 3101 adapted to the column 18. The column 18 passes through the strip through groove 3101 and is slidably connected to the driving arm 31. The two movable blocks 30 can be driven by the bidirectional driving structure provided on the cutting plate 14 to move closer to or away from each other.

[0060] To expand on this, the bidirectional drive structure includes a bidirectional screw 29 rotatably mounted on the cutting plate 14 and a drive motor 28 mounted on the side of the cutting plate 14. The output end of the drive motor 28 is connected to the bidirectional screw 29, and the two movable blocks 30 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional screw 29.

[0061] Secondly, a supporting plate (not numbered in the figure) is fixed on the cutting plate 14, and the two movable blocks 30 are slidably arranged on the supporting plate;

[0062] When the driving motor 28 drives the bidirectional screw rod 29 to rotate in the forward direction, the two movable blocks 30 are simultaneously threadedly engaged with the bidirectional screw rod 29 and move toward each other. Then, the column 18 will slide with the driving arm 31 through the strip-shaped through slot 3101. The driving arm 31 can drive the slider 17 to move toward the middle position of the conveyor belt 2 in the guide slot 1601 through the column 18. Then, the scraper 26 reaches the middle position of the conveyor belt 2, which is convenient for removing the intercepted residual materials.

[0063] On the contrary, when the driving motor 28 drives the bidirectional screw rod 29 to rotate in the opposite direction, the two movable blocks 30 move away from each other, and the driving arm 31 drives the slider 17 to slide in the guide groove 1601 toward the outside of the conveyor belt 2 through the column 18, so that the scraper 26 can smoothly scrape the residual material from the conveyor belt 2.

[0064] It should be noted that there may be incompletely reacted chemical components in the production process of fertilizers. These components continue to react during storage and transportation to form crystal bridges, leading to agglomeration. The hygroscopicity of fertilizers, temperature changes, increased humidity, and pressure and other factors will cause the surface of fertilizer particles to dissolve, and the water will evaporate and recrystallize, thereby forming bridges and adhesions, leading to agglomeration. Agglomerated materials are not conducive to subsequent testing. For this purpose, the support 1 is also provided with a material breaking mechanism.

[0065] Please refer again Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 11 A support frame 8 is also fixed on the support 1. The material breaking up structure is provided on the support frame 8 and is used to apply pressure to the material before the material passes through the plurality of material cutting plates 14. The structure includes an assembly plate 10 slidably provided on the support frame 8 and a plurality of hemispherical pressure members 13 movably provided below the assembly plate 10. The pressure members 13 are connected to the assembly plate 10 via elastic connectors. A cylinder 9 is also installed on the side of the support frame 8, and the movable end of the cylinder 9 is fixed to the assembly plate 10. The elastic connector includes a guide cylinder 11 fixed to the bottom of the assembly plate 10 and a telescopic rod 12 slidably fitted with the guide cylinder 11. The pressure member 13 is fixed to the end of the telescopic rod 12 away from the assembly plate 10. A third spring 32 is also provided inside the guide cylinder 11. The two ends of the third spring 32 are respectively connected to the inner wall of the guide cylinder 11 and the telescopic rod 12.

[0066] During operation, whenever the conveyor belt 2 stops, the cylinder 9 can drive the assembly plate 10 to move downward on the support frame 8, so that the pressure member 13 can act on the material on the conveyor belt 2, and the telescopic rod 12 and the guide cylinder 11 slide relative to each other, and the third spring 32 is compressed. The pressure member 13 can apply a certain pressure to the material to break it up and prevent it from clumping. The elastic connecting member enables the pressure member 13 to apply flexible pressure to the material to prevent it from being crushed by a large pressure.

[0067] Secondly, the present application utilizes multiple hemispherical pressure members 13 to improve the problem of material agglomeration. During operation, the agglomerated material can be squeezed into the space formed between the adjacent multiple pressure members 13, thereby solving the agglomeration problem through the extrusion force, which is more effective than using a flat plate to apply pressure.

[0068] As another embodiment of the present invention, an application of the multi-visual particle size detection device in potassium chloride detection is also proposed. Since there are multiple cutting plates 14 arranged along the fertilizer transmission direction above the conveyor belt 2, and the heights of the multiple cutting plates 14 gradually decrease along the fertilizer transmission direction, during the operation, the fertilizer will pass through the multiple cutting plates 14 in sequence, and the accumulation depth of the fertilizer will be gradually reduced, and after each reduction, a corresponding visual detection module 4 will take a picture of the material.
