[0025] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention can be implemented in a variety of different ways as defined and covered below.

[0026] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 This application is described in further detail.

[0027] The embodiment of the present application discloses a calibration device for a powder material scale.

[0028] Reference Figure 1The calibration device of the powder scale includes a calibration unit and a suspension assembly; the calibration unit includes a weight platform 1 for supporting weights and a guardrail 2 surrounding the weight platform 1, and a connecting structure for combining and connecting different calibration units is formed on the guardrail 2; the suspension assembly includes a support 4 for fixing on the powder scale and a suspension chain 3 connected to the support, and the end of the suspension chain 3 away from the support 4 is detachably connected to the guardrail 2, and a plurality of suspension assemblies are symmetrically arranged to keep the calibration unit balanced. The design of the calibration device of the powder scale is intended to ensure the accuracy of calibration and the safety of operation. The weights required for calibration can be safely and stably placed and supported by the weight platform 1 and the surrounding guardrail 2. The connection structure on the guardrail 2 allows different calibration units to be combined, enhancing the flexibility and adaptability of the system to meet the calibration needs of powder scales of different sizes. The suspension assembly provides structural support for the entire device, through the support 4 fixed on the powder scale and the suspension chains 3 connected thereto, which can be detachably connected to the guardrail 2, to ensure the stability and balance of the calibration unit. Multiple symmetrically arranged suspension assemblies further enhance the stability and balance of the entire system, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the calibration process and the safety of operation.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 The guardrail 2 includes a column 21 and a crossbeam 22. A plurality of columns 21 are arranged along the edge of the weight platform 1. One end of the column 21 is fixedly connected to the weight platform 1, and the two ends of the crossbeam 22 are respectively connected to two adjacent columns 21. The plurality of columns 21 arranged along the edge of the weight platform 1 and the crossbeam 22 connecting these columns 21 provide important safety and structural support for the calibration unit. The arrangement of the columns 21 enhances the stability of the entire calibration unit because they are directly fixedly connected to the weight platform 1, thereby providing a solid support structure for the weights placed on the platform. The addition of the crossbeam 22 further strengthens the structural integrity of the guardrail 2, and by connecting adjacent columns 21, a more robust and durable frame is formed. Such a design not only protects the weights from external interference and ensures the accuracy and continuity of the calibration process, but also provides a higher safety guarantee for the operator to prevent the weights from accidentally slipping or moving.

[0030] The connection structure includes a connecting rod 5 and a locking bolt. The connecting rod 5 passes through two columns 21 belonging to different calibration units, and the locking bolt is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 5 to lock the position of the connecting rod 5 relative to the column 21. The connection structure consists of a connecting rod 5 and a locking bolt, which brings flexible combination and stable fixing functions to the powder scale calibration device. The connecting rod 5 passes through the columns 21 belonging to different calibration units. Such a layout allows separate calibration units to be easily connected together, thereby expanding or adjusting the size and shape of the entire calibration platform according to calibration needs. The locking bolt is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 5, so that once the connecting rod 5 is placed in a suitable position, the position of the connecting rod 5 relative to the column 21 can be quickly and firmly locked by the locking bolt. This design not only provides flexibility in assembling and adjusting the calibration device, but also ensures that once set up, the connection between the calibration units is stable and safe, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the calibration process and the safety of operation.

[0031] An adjusting member 6 is provided at one end of the column 21 away from the weight platform 1, and a suspension chain 3 is connected to the farthest end of the adjusting member 6 relative to the column 21, and the adjusting member 6 is movably connected to the column 21 to adjust the maximum distance between the adjusting member 6 and the column 21. The design that the adjusting member 6 is provided at one end of the column 21 away from the weight platform 1 and the suspension chain 3 is connected to the farthest end of the adjusting member 6 significantly improves the adjustment flexibility and balance accuracy of the powder scale calibration device. The adjusting member 6 is movably connected to the column 21, allowing the operator to adjust the maximum distance between the adjusting member 6 and the column 21 according to actual needs, and this adjustment mechanism enables the horizontality of the calibration platform 1 to be accurately controlled. This is very important to ensure that the calibration unit remains horizontal and stable during use, especially under different loads or different calibration scenarios. In addition, such a design also provides convenience for the operator, making the fine-tuning of the calibration device simpler and more efficient. The operator can adjust the maximum distance between the adjusting member 6 and the column 21 according to actual needs to adapt to different calibration requirements. The introduction of this adjustment mechanism not only improves the convenience of operation, but also reduces the workload of operators and improves work efficiency.

[0032] A top cover is provided at the end of the column 21, and the adjusting member 6 includes two rods and an arc-shaped connecting portion connecting the two rods. Both rods pass through the top cover and are threadedly connected with bolts, and the suspension chain 3 is connected to the arc-shaped connecting portion. A top cover is provided at the end of the column 21, and the adjusting member 6 is composed of two rods and an arc-shaped connecting portion connecting the two rods. This design provides a more detailed and flexible adjustment mechanism, and enhances the stability and adjustability of the calibration device. The two rods pass through the top cover and are threadedly connected by bolts. Such a structure allows the length and position of the adjusting member 6 to be precisely adjusted. This fine adjustment mechanism allows the user to adjust the suspension according to different calibration requirements.

[0033] A reinforcing plate 42 is provided between the two support plates, and the reinforcing plate 42 is perpendicular to the two support plates 41 and fixedly connected to the two support plates 41. The design of providing the reinforcing plate 42 between the two support plates 41, and the reinforcing plate 42 is perpendicular to the two support plates 41 and fixedly connected to them, mainly serves to improve the strength and stability of the entire supporting structure. The reinforcing plate 42, as a structural support, increases the rigidity between the support members 4, thereby reducing the distortion or deformation that may occur during use. This stable structure is particularly important because it ensures uniform force transmission and stable support during the calibration of the powder scale, thereby enhancing the accuracy and repeatability of the calibration. In addition, the presence of the reinforcing plate 42 also makes the entire support system more durable, able to withstand long-term use and stress under various working conditions, thereby improving the reliability and life of the calibration device. In general, this design optimizes the performance and durability of the calibration device by enhancing the structural support.

[0034] The guardrail 2 includes four columns 21, and four suspension assemblies are provided. The suspension chains 3 of the suspension assemblies are connected to the columns 21 of the guardrail 2 in a one-to-one correspondence. Firstly, by connecting each suspension chain 3 to a separate column 21, the balance and stability of the calibration device are ensured. This one-to-one connection method enables each suspension assembly to evenly distribute weight and tension, thereby reducing errors and stability problems caused by unbalanced loads. Secondly, this design also increases the flexibility and adjustability of the calibration system, because each suspension chain 3 can be adjusted individually to adapt to different calibration needs and conditions. In addition, the direct connection between each column 21 and the suspension chain 3 also enhances the safety of the entire calibration device, because it reduces the risk of accidents that may occur due to imbalance or accidental movement of the device.

[0035] The end of the crossbeam 22 is provided with a connecting rib plate 23, and the connecting rib plate 23 is provided with bolts threadedly connected to the column 21 to fix the crossbeam 22 on the column 21. First, by combining the connecting rib plate 23 and the bolt, the crossbeam 22 can be firmly fixed on the column 21. This fixing method not only provides a strong supporting force, but also allows the crossbeam 22 to withstand a heavier load without deformation or breakage. Secondly, the bolt connection provides a reliable and easy-to-install and maintain method, so that the connection between the crossbeam 22 and the column 21 is both stable and flexible. When adjustment or maintenance is required, it can be easily disassembled and reinstalled. In addition, this design also helps to disperse and balance the force on the entire structure, improving the overall stability and safety of the system. Therefore, by arranging the connecting rib plate 23 and the bolt at the end of the crossbeam 22, not only the stability and durability of the structure are enhanced, but also the convenience of maintenance and adjustment is improved.

[0036] A connecting plate 7 is provided on the weight platform 1, and the connecting plates 7 on adjacent weight platforms 1 are fixedly connected by passing bolts and locking nuts. First, through this connection method, a plurality of weight platforms 1 can be stably and tightly connected, which is very important for maintaining the stability and consistency of the overall structure. Secondly, the use of bolts and nuts makes the connection both firm and reliable, while providing a certain flexibility. When the number of weight platforms 1 needs to be adjusted, increased or decreased, it can be easily disassembled and assembled, which increases the adaptability and configurability of the system. In addition, this design also helps to evenly distribute the load, reduce the pressure on a single platform, and improve the service life and safety of the entire system. Therefore, by arranging a connecting plate 7 on the weight platform 1 and fixing it with bolts and nuts, not only the stability and strength of the structure are increased, but also convenience and flexibility in operation are provided.

[0037] Reference Figure 3 , the support member 4 includes two vertically arranged support plates 41, one support plate 41 is used to connect to the powder scale, and the other support plate 41 is used to connect to the suspension chain 3. The support member 4 is designed to include two vertically arranged support plates 41, and this structure plays a key role in the calibration process of the powder scale. One support plate 41 is specifically used to connect to the powder scale, ensuring that the entire calibration device is firmly fixed to the scale body, thereby increasing the overall stability and safety of the system. The other vertical support plate 41 is used to connect to the suspension chain 3. This layout enables the suspension chain 3 to directly transfer force from the calibration unit to the powder scale, ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of the calibration process. This separate design also makes the installation, adjustment and maintenance of the calibration device easier and more flexible, because the powder scale or the suspension system can be adjusted and inspected separately.

[0038] In a specific embodiment, the powder scale includes a powder middle bin 8 and a powder side bin 9, wherein the volume of the powder middle bin 8 is larger than the volume of the powder side bin 9. By setting a plurality of calibration units, it can be combined according to the size of the powder scale to be calibrated. When the powder side bin 9 is calibrated, only one calibration unit is needed. When the powder middle bin 8 is calibrated, one powder calibration unit is difficult to accommodate the required weights. At this time, the two calibration units can be connected by a connecting structure to accommodate more weights. The larger capacity powder middle bin 8 can be calibrated, and the measuring range is larger.

[0039] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
