Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of liquid quantitative delivery technology, and in particular to a high-precision two-component adhesive rapid quantitative delivery device. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of quantitative liquid transportation, pipelines and pumps are indispensable. In the prior art, to measure the amount of liquid being transported, metering pumps or metering valves are usually used in the pipeline, with a measurement accuracy of about ±0.5%. Moreover, after the pump stops pumping or the metering valve closes, a certain amount of liquid will inevitably be generated at the outlet of the pipeline and the pump body or the metering valve itself (i.e., the gravity flow section in this application) or liquid adhering to the wall, thus affecting the actual amount of liquid transported into the container. In order to achieve rapid transportation of large amounts of liquid, larger pipelines and pumps must be used. The larger the pipeline and pump, the more liquid is in the gravity flow section. Especially when transporting high-viscosity liquids such as resins and curing agents, the gravity flow section or liquid adhering to the wall seriously affects the measurement accuracy and speed.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a high-precision two-component adhesive rapid quantitative delivery device that can achieve rapid flow interruption without dripping while using a large-volume tube for rapid delivery, and then perform high-precision dripping through the drip nozzle to achieve high-precision and rapid liquid delivery. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows:

[0005] A high-precision two-component adhesive rapid quantitative delivery device is characterized by comprising a container, a controller, and two delivery pipes, each of which includes a coarse pipe assembly and a fine pipe assembly.

[0006] The coarse pipe assembly includes a main liquid storage tank and a coarse pipe. One end of the coarse pipe is connected to the main liquid storage tank, and the other end is provided with a coarse pipe outlet located above the container and facing downwards. A coarse delivery pump is provided on the coarse pipe between the coarse pipe outlet and the main liquid storage tank. The section between the coarse delivery pump and the coarse pipe outlet is a gravity flow section.

[0007] The thin tube assembly includes a secondary storage tank and a three-way valve. The three-way valve is equipped with a dropper, a return pipe, and a suction pipe. The end of the dropper away from the three-way valve has a drip port located above the container. The end of the return pipe away from the three-way valve is connected to the secondary storage tank, and a thin delivery pump is installed on the return pipe. The diameter of the suction pipe is smaller than that of the thick pipe, and the end of the suction pipe away from the three-way valve is inserted into the gravity flow section.

[0008] The three-way valve is a two-position three-way valve. When it is in the first position, the dropper and the return pipe are connected; when it is in the second position, the return pipe and the suction pipe are connected.

[0009] The fine delivery pump is a bidirectional pump;

[0010] A weight sensor is installed at the bottom of the container;

[0011] The three-way valve, weight sensor, fine delivery pump, and coarse delivery pump are all electrically connected to the controller.

[0012] Preferably, both the suction tube and the thick tube are cylindrical structures, with the suction tube located near the bottom of the inner side of the thick tube and covering the outlet of the thick tube along its length.

[0013] Preferably, the outlet of the coarse tube is a circular or elliptical structure, with the center of the circle or ellipse located at the bottom of the coarse tube.

[0014] Preferably, the side wall of the liquid extraction tube is provided with a plurality of liquid extraction holes, and the liquid extraction tube is provided with a liquid extraction hole at the bottom near the liquid outlet of the thick tube.

[0015] Preferably, the gap between the bottom of the outer wall of the suction tube and the bottom of the inner wall of the thick tube is ≤1mm, and the suction hole is located at the bottom of the suction tube.

[0016] Preferably, the distance between adjacent suction holes above the outlet of the coarse tube is ≤3mm.

[0017] Preferably, a weight calibration component is disposed above the container near the weight sensor. The weight calibration component includes a weight and a weight picker / placer, which places the weight on or away from the container.

[0018] Preferably, an isolation device is provided between the weight sensor and the container, and the coarse delivery pump is a metering pump.

[0019] Preferably, the outer wall of the extraction tube and the inner wall of the gravity flow section of the thick tube are provided with a Teflon coating.

[0020] Preferably, the diameter of the dripping orifice is smaller than the diameter of the dropper, and the diameter of the dripping orifice is ≤2mm.

[0021] Preferably, the fine delivery pump is a gear pump, and the auxiliary storage tank is located above the fine delivery pump in the direction of gravity.

[0022] Preferably, the container is equipped with a stirrer.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0024] 1. While using a large-volume tube for rapid and high-flow delivery, the flow can be quickly interrupted without dripping through the liquid extraction tube.

The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0035] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0036] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a high-precision two-component adhesive rapid quantitative delivery device includes a container 10, a controller, and two delivery pipes, each of which includes a coarse pipe assembly 20 and a fine pipe assembly 30.

[0037] The coarse pipe assembly 20 includes a main liquid storage tank 23 and a coarse pipe 22. One end of the coarse pipe 22 is connected to the main liquid storage tank 23, and the other end is provided with a coarse pipe outlet 222 located above the container 10 and facing downwards. A coarse delivery pump 21 is provided on the coarse pipe 22 between the coarse pipe outlet 222 and the main liquid storage tank 23. The coarse delivery pump 21 and the coarse pipe outlet 222 are a gravity flow section 221.

[0038] The thin tube assembly 30 includes a secondary storage tank 36 and a three-way valve 32. The three-way valve 32 is respectively equipped with a dropper 33, a return pipe 34, and a suction pipe 35. The end of the dropper 33 away from the three-way valve 32 is provided with a drip port located above the container 10. The end of the return pipe 34 away from the three-way valve 32 is connected to the secondary storage tank 36, and a thin delivery pump 31 is provided on the return pipe 34. The diameter of the suction pipe 35 is smaller than that of the thick pipe 22, and the end of the suction pipe 35 away from the three-way valve 32 is inserted into the interior of the gravity flow section 221. The thin delivery pump 31 is a bidirectional pump.

[0039] A weight sensor 11 is provided at the bottom of the container 10;

[0040] The three-way valve 32 is a two-position three-way valve. When it is in the first position, the dropper 33 and the return pipe 34 are connected; when it is in the second position, the return pipe 34 and the suction pipe 35 are connected.

[0041] The three-way valve 32, weight sensor 11, fine delivery pump 31 and coarse delivery pump 21 are respectively connected to the controller via electrical signals.

[0042] In this embodiment, the controller is set to add 20,000 grams of resin and 5,000 grams of curing agent (resin:curing agent = 4:1) to container 10. The steps are as follows:

[0043] 1. Start the coarse delivery pump 21, pump 17,000 grams of resin at full speed, then reduce the speed to 50% and continue pumping to approximately 19,000 grams, then reduce the speed to 10% and continue pumping to approximately 19,500 grams, then reduce the speed to 5%.

[0044] Pump the solution to approximately 19,980 grams, then turn off the coarse delivery pump 21.

[0045] 2. Set the three-way valve 32 to the second position, start the fine transfer pump 31 and reverse it to pump the resin in the gravity flow section 221 to the auxiliary storage tank 36 through the liquid extraction pipe 35 and the liquid return pipe 34; at the same time, the weight sensor 11 accurately measures the weight of the resin in the container.

[0046] 3. Set the three-way valve 32 to the first position, start the fine delivery pump 31 and rotate it at full speed in the forward direction, and add the resin weight to about 19998 grams through the dropper 33;

[0047] 4. The fine delivery pump 31 rotates at low speed in the forward direction, allowing the resin to be added drop by drop to 20000 + / - 0.1 grams;

[0048] 5. Referring to steps 1-4, add 5000+ / 0.1g of hardener to container 10;

[0049] 6. Complete the quantitative addition of resin and curing agent, and transfer to the next process.

[0050] 7. Weight sensor 11 measures the weight of container 10, and after tare, resin and curing agent are added in a measured amount. Depending on the production schedule, if the downtime is long, the liquid can be pumped to auxiliary storage tank 36 via dropper 33.

[0051] 8. If the amount of hardener added is excessive, the corresponding fine delivery pump 31 for resin can be turned on to add more resin, so that the ratio of the two remains unchanged. Conversely, if the amount of resin is excessive, add more hardener.

[0052] Furthermore, to reduce the impact of liquid on the high-precision weight sensor 11 during pumping, which could affect the sensor's accuracy, an isolation device is used to separate the weight sensor 11 from the container 10 during rapid liquid pumping. When accurate weight of the container 10 and its internal liquid is required, the isolation device is removed, allowing the weight sensor 11 to contact the container 10 for weighing.

[0053] Furthermore, to avoid frequent intervention of the weight sensor 11 in weighing, the coarse delivery pump 21 is a metering pump.

[0054] Furthermore, in order to quickly and fully pump the liquid from the gravity flow section 221 to the auxiliary storage tank 36 and avoid residual liquid adhering to the walls and flowing away, such as... Figure 2 , 4As shown, both the suction tube 35 and the thick tube 22 are cylindrical structures. The suction tube 35 is close to the bottom of the inner side of the thick tube 22, and the suction tube 35 covers the outlet 222 of the thick tube in the length direction.

[0055] Furthermore, the outlet 222 of the coarse tube is a circular or elliptical structure, with the center of the circle or ellipse located at the bottom of the coarse tube 22.

[0056] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, both the thick tube 22 and the thick tube outlet 222 are circular. The thick tube outlet 222 forms a smooth arc extending from bottom to top on the thick tube 22, so that the liquid can flow along the edge of the arc to the bottom of the thick tube outlet 222, so that the suction tube 35 can draw it in and avoid disorderly dripping.

[0057] Furthermore, in order to quickly and accurately draw out the liquid concentrated at the outlet 222 of the coarse tube and avoid dripping, such as Figure 2 , 4 As shown, a plurality of extraction holes 351 are provided on the side wall of the extraction tube 35, and at least the extraction tube 35 is provided with extraction holes 351 near the bottom of the outlet 222 of the thick tube.

[0058] Furthermore, to ensure the suction effect of the suction hole 351, and to ensure that the unavoidable small amount of residual liquid is stably adsorbed on the tube wall between the suction tube 35 and the coarse tube 22 under the action of molecular tension, thus avoiding flow, such as Figure 4 As shown, the gap between the bottom of the outer wall of the suction tube 35 and the bottom of the inner wall of the thick tube 22 is ≤1mm, and the suction hole 351 is located at the bottom of the suction tube 35.

[0059] Furthermore, since the suction pipe 35 above the outlet 222 of the coarse pipe is suspended, in order to avoid the formation of droplets on the suspended suction pipe 35, the distance between adjacent suction holes 351 above the outlet 222 of the coarse pipe is ≤3mm.

[0060] Furthermore, in order to ensure the accuracy of the weight sensor 11, the weight sensor 11 is periodically calibrated with weights. A weight calibration component 40 is provided above the weight sensor 11 in the container 10. The weight calibration component 40 includes a weight 41 and a weight picker 42. The weight picker 42 places the weight 41 on or away from the container 10.

[0061] Furthermore, in order to reduce liquid adhesion to the walls, the outer wall of the liquid extraction pipe 35 and the inner wall of the gravity flow section 221 of the thick pipe 22 are provided with a Teflon coating.

[0062] Furthermore, in order to more precisely control the droplet weight and reduce droplet suspension, the diameter of the droplet orifice is smaller than the diameter of the dropper 33, and the diameter of the droplet orifice is ≤2mm.

[0063] Furthermore, the fine delivery pump 31 is a gear pump, and the auxiliary storage tank 36 is located above the fine delivery pump 31 in the direction of gravity. A certain amount of liquid is maintained in the auxiliary storage tank 36 for dripping; a liquid level sensor is installed in the auxiliary storage tank 36.

[0064] In this embodiment, the fine delivery pump 31 is a gear pump, which has good precision and can withstand large back pressure.

[0065] Furthermore, a stirrer 12 is provided inside the container 10.

[0066] For those skilled in the art, various other corresponding changes and modifications can be made based on the technical solutions and concepts described above, and all such changes and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the claims of this invention.
