[0021] The utility model provides a device for quantitatively discharging mixed materials in the semiconductor industry, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a buffer tank 1, a stirring mechanism, a radar level meter 2, a screw pump 3, a mass flow meter 4, an electric proportional control valve 5, a circulation pipeline 6 and a discharge pipe 7.

[0022] The stirring mechanism includes a stirring motor 8, a stirring shaft 9 and a stirring blade 10. The stirring motor 8 is arranged above the buffer tank 1. The stirring shaft 9 and the stirring blade 10 are arranged in the buffer tank 1. The stirring motor 8 is connected to the stirring shaft 9, and the stirring blade 10 is arranged on the stirring shaft 9.

[0023] The buffer tank 1 is provided with a radar level meter 2 for detecting the liquid level of the material in the tank. A discharge port is provided at the bottom of the buffer tank 1, and the discharge port is connected to the inlet of the screw pump 3. The outlet of the screw pump 3 is connected to one end of the circulation pipeline 6. The other end of the circulation pipeline 6 is connected to the circulation material inlet above the buffer tank 1. The mass flow meter 4 is arranged on the circulation pipeline 6. The discharge pipe 7 is connected to the circulation pipeline 6. The discharge pipe 7 is provided with an electric proportional control valve 5.

[0024] In this embodiment, the outlet of the screw pump 3 is connected to the circulation pipeline 6 through a manual three-way ball valve 11, and the manual three-way ball valve 11 is connected to a drainage pipeline for discharging cleaning water.

[0025] In this embodiment, the circulation pipeline 6 is connected to the circulation material inlet above the buffer tank 1 through the electric V-shaped ball valve 12. The electric V-shaped ball valve 12 is connected to the PLC controller.

[0026] In this embodiment, the electric proportional control valve 5 is connected to the PLC controller.

[0027] In this embodiment, the radar level meter 2 is connected to the PLC controller, and the PLC controller is connected to the feed valve.

[0028] In this embodiment, the mass flow meter 4 is connected to the PLC controller.

[0029] This embodiment adopts flow control as the main method and liquid level control as the auxiliary method, and comprehensively utilizes the two parameters of flow rate and liquid level to achieve more accurate quantitative discharge of the buffer tank 1.

[0030] (1) Flow control: An electric proportional control valve 5 is installed on the discharge pipe 7 to adjust the discharge flow. The flow control valve can adjust the opening according to the command of the control system to achieve precise control of the flow.

[0031] (2) Liquid level control: The liquid level in the buffer tank 1 is monitored by the radar level meter 2, and the liquid level signal is fed back to the control system. The control system controls the opening and closing of the feed valve according to the set liquid level value to maintain the liquid level in the tank within the set range.

[0032] (3) Logical control: The control system calculates the required discharging time according to the set discharging amount and discharging speed requirements. During the discharging process, the liquid level in the tank is ensured to be within the appropriate range through liquid level control, and the electric proportional control valve 5 is controlled by flow control to achieve the set discharging amount within the discharging time.

[0033] (4) Feedback correction: The mass flow meter 4 monitors the actual flow rate of the discharge in real time and feeds back the flow signal to the control system. The control system can make feedback corrections based on the difference between the actual flow rate and the set flow rate, and fine-tune the electric proportional control valve 5 to improve the accuracy of the discharge.

[0034] Since the material is a suspension, it is easy to precipitate and has high viscosity, so the material needs to be stirred all the time to prevent the material from precipitating and adhering to the surface of the tank body. When there is no material discharge, close the electric proportional control valve 5 and open the electric V-type ball valve 12 to allow the entire liquid to circulate in the pipeline to prevent blockage. After the equipment stops for a long time or works for a long time, the buffer tank 1 and the pipeline must be cleaned. After cleaning, open the manual three-way ball valve 11 to the discharge pipeline to drain the cleaning water.

[0035] The above specific examples are used to illustrate the present invention, which are only used to help understand the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art of the present invention, some simple deductions, deformations or substitutions can be made based on the idea of ​​the present invention.
