Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of dye preparation, in particular to a dye storage and taking device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the production process of a textile enterprise, a specified color of dye is needed to dye a textile, and the specified color of dye is usually mixed by a plurality of basic color dyes (powdered). In order to facilitate the storage and taking of different dyes, dye tanks containing different basic color dyes are usually stored in a storage rack. When color matching is needed, a mechanical hand only needs to take the relevant basic color dye tank from the storage rack to a discharging area, and then discharges.

[0003] Since the required color determines the different collocation of the required basic color dye, the use frequency of the dye tanks with different basic colors in the storage rack will be different. For example, from the color matching aspect, the use frequency of the dye tank containing the basic color of three primary colors is relatively high, and the use frequency of the deep color system is relatively low. For example, from the production and operation aspect, since the demand for dyeing of a certain type of specified color is high within a period of time, the use frequency of the dye tank for matching the basic color of this type of color is high, thereby reducing the use frequency of the dye tank of other basic colors.

[0004] The dye tank with low use frequency is prone to have the dye powder inside the dye tank damp and caked or the powder in the lower part of the dye tank caked under the long-term pressure of the powder in the middle and upper parts. Since the discharge port of the dye tank is usually located at the bottom (for easy discharging), the caked dye powder is easy to block the discharge port, thereby affecting the discharging of the discharge port. Therefore, if the automatic storage and taking device in the prior art is directly used to extract the dye, the amount of extracted material is unstable or even unable to extract the material. Therefore, a device capable of maintaining stable discharging when the powder is caked is needed. SUMMARY

A crushing mechanism is arranged at the discharging port, and the main shaft 22 of the crushing mechanism is connected with the quick-release driving joint. Therefore, when the dye tank 2 is transferred to the driving part, the driving part drives the crushing mechanism to crush the caked dye, so as to eliminate the blockage of the dye tank 2 caused by the caking of the dye, thereby ensuring the stability of the discharging.
