Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tobacco production equipment, in particular to a feeder and a cleaning system of a feeder pipeline thereof. Background Art

[0002] KAS feeder is a kind of equipment used in tobacco processing industry. KAS feeder mainly relies on vibrating conveyor to deliver blades into feeder drum. Through the inclination of drum and the guidance of internal material lever and guide plate, blades can flow to the discharge port automatically and evenly. KAS feeder mainly consists of feeding barrel and KAP feeding device. Feeding barrel is mainly used to add spices, flavorings and other substances to tobacco during tobacco processing. Added substances are evenly sprayed onto tobacco through the nozzle of feeding barrel to improve the taste and aroma of tobacco. KAP feeding device mainly delivers sugar to the nozzle at the entrance of feeding barrel, and plays the role of material liquid circulation in pre-filling stage.

[0003] After the production of KAS feeder is completed, the pipeline needs to be cleaned. The current pipeline cleaning method is to clean the pipeline with water and compressed air. The specific pipeline cleaning process is as follows Figure 1 As shown. When actually cleaning the pipeline, the switch valve 2 and the switch valve 4 are opened first, the switch valve 1 and the switch valve 3 are closed first, and the cleaning water first cleans the pipeline. Then, the switch valves 1 and 4 are opened, the switch valves 2 and 3 are closed, and the compressed air blows the cleaning water in the pipeline to the ditch.

[0004] At present, in the process of cleaning the feeding pipeline, there are mainly the following problems:

[0005] (1) Due to the high viscosity of sugar, some of the sugar will accumulate on the flow meter and some curved pipelines, which will cause pipeline blockage over time and affect normal production;

[0006] (2) The pipeline can only be cleaned before the switch valve 3. The part of the pipeline from the switch valve 3 to the nozzle cannot be cleaned. This part of the pipeline can only be cleaned by manual removal and cannot be automatically cleaned. Utility Model Content

[0007] In view of the above, the utility model aims to provide a cleaning system for a feeder and its feeding pipeline, so as to solve the aforementioned problem that part of the sugar material will adhere to the flow meter and some curved pipelines, easily causing pipeline blockage and affecting normal production, and the problem that the pipeline close to the nozzle cannot be automatically cleaned and can only be manually dismantled for cleaning.

[0008] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0009] In a first aspect of the utility model, a feeding pipeline cleaning system is provided, which is used for a feeding machine, wherein the feeding machine comprises a feeding pump and a flow meter, and the feeding pump is connected to the flow meter through a pipeline; the feeding pipeline cleaning system comprises a plurality of switch valves, namely a first switch valve, a second switch valve, a third switch valve and a fourth switch valve, wherein the feeding pump is connected to a compressed air pipeline through the first switch valve, the feeding pump is connected to a pure water pipeline through the second switch valve, the flow meter is connected to a nozzle through the third switch valve, and the flow meter is connected to a ditch through the fourth switch valve, wherein a detergent adding pipeline is arranged between the feeding pump and the second switch valve.

[0010] Preferably, an electromagnetic regulating valve is provided on the detergent adding pipeline.

[0011] Preferably, the flow meter is also connected to an auxiliary cleaning pipeline through the fourth switch valve.

[0012] Preferably, one end of the auxiliary cleaning pipeline is connected to the fourth switch valve, and the other end is an open structure.

[0013] Preferably, the caliber of the opening structure of the auxiliary cleaning pipeline is matched with the size of the nozzle, so that the nozzle opening of the nozzle can be inserted into the opening structure of the auxiliary cleaning pipeline.

[0014] The second aspect of the utility model provides a feeder, comprising the above-mentioned cleaning system for the feed pipeline.

[0015] The feeder and the cleaning system of the feeder pipeline of the utility model have the following technical effects:

[0016] In the first aspect, a cleaning agent adding pipeline is provided between the feeding pump and the second switch valve, and an electromagnetic regulating valve is provided on the cleaning agent adding pipeline. Since the simple cleaning water cannot clean the accumulated scale, the additional cleaning agent adding pipeline can automatically add sugar cleaning agent during the cleaning process. At the same time, the electromagnetic regulating valve can also be used to adjust the amount of cleaning agent added;

[0017] On the other hand, the flow meter is also connected to an auxiliary cleaning pipeline through the fourth switch valve, and the nozzle mouth of the nozzle can be inserted into the opening structure of the auxiliary cleaning pipeline; when it is necessary to clean the part of the pipeline from the third switch valve to the nozzle, it is only necessary to pull out the nozzle end and insert the nozzle into the auxiliary pipeline to complete the cleaning of the part of the pipeline from the third switch valve to the nozzle, thereby achieving comprehensive cleaning.
