[0002] Relevant laws and regulations require that all fuel engines (including gasoline engines and diesel engines) must meet particulate matter / particle number emission requirements, and the calibration of fuel engines must also be based on the test data in the emission experiment.

Therefore, the following aspects, features, embodiments and advantages are for illustrative purposes only and should not be regarded as elements or limitations of the claims unless clearly stated in the claims.

[0025] In the following, terms such as "first", "second", etc. are used to describe the elements of the present application. These terms are only used to distinguish the various elements, and are not used to limit the nature, order or number of these elements. The terms "including" and "having" are used to express an open-ended inclusive meaning, and mean that there may be additional elements / components in addition to the listed elements / components.

[0026] Figure 1-7 The automatic weighing system according to one embodiment of the utility model is shown, and the system is used to perform a weighing experiment on a material 1 for collecting particulate matter emitted by a fuel engine (such as a gasoline engine, a diesel engine, etc.). The material 1 can be a clean filter paper before the fuel engine emission test, or a loaded filter paper after the emission test. Figure 1 As shown, the automatic weighing system according to this embodiment may include an environmental chamber 2 and an automatic weighing device disposed in the environmental chamber 2. The environmental chamber 2 provides a closed environmental condition such as constant temperature and constant humidity for the weighing experiment. The automatic weighing device may include a material taking / discharging mechanism 3, a material storage mechanism 4 and an optional barcode scanning gun 6.

[0027] The environmental chamber 2 can be optionally connected by multiple sealing plates to define a closed working area. Figure 1 It is further shown in the figure that the automatic weighing system can also include a frame structure 5 connected to the environmental chamber 2, thereby providing a mounting point. The material taking / discharging mechanism 3, the material storage mechanism 4 and the barcode scanning gun 6 are fixed on the frame structure 5 and are enclosed in the environmental chamber 2 through a sealing plate. Figure 1 and Figure 2 It can be seen that a sealing plate is provided on the frame structure 5 and is sealed to the environmental chamber 2, thereby connecting the inner cavities of the environmental chamber 2 and the frame structure 5 and providing the same closed environmental conditions.

[0028] Figure 2 and Figure 3 The automatic weighing device is shown with a material taking / discharging mechanism 3 and a material storage mechanism 4. Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the material taking / discharging mechanism 3 may include a manipulator 31 and a material taking / discharging assembly. The manipulator 31 may have six degrees of freedom, namely, the degrees of freedom of movement along the three rectangular coordinate axes of x, y, and z and the degrees of freedom of rotation around these three coordinate axes, so that the manipulator 31 can bypass obstacles and has a compact structure. The fixed end of the manipulator 31 is connected to the frame structure 5, and the free end of the manipulator 31 is connected to the material taking / discharging assembly, so that under the manipulation of the manipulator 31, the material taking / discharging assembly can take out the material 1 to be weighed from the storage mechanism 4, or place the weighed material 1 into the storage mechanism 4.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the material taking / discharging assembly may specifically include a support plate 32 and at least one material taking / discharging tray 33. The support plate 32 is fixedly connected to the manipulator 31, and the material taking / discharging tray 33 is connected to one end of the support plate 32, thereby extending the distance between the material taking / discharging tray 33 and the manipulator 31 to prevent the manipulator 31 from interfering with the material taking / discharging tray 33 when the manipulator 31 moves. Optionally, Figure 3 It is also shown that the material taking / discharging assembly may include two material taking / discharging trays 33. The middle of the support plate 32 is fixed to the free end of the manipulator 31, and the two material taking / discharging trays 33 are respectively fixed to the two ends of the support plate 32. Advantageously, two material taking / discharging trays 33 of different sizes can be provided to adapt to materials 1 of different specifications. Accordingly, the storage mechanism 4 may include a plurality of storage trays 41.

[0030] Figures 4 to 6 Schematic diagram of the process of cooperation between the material taking / discharging tray 33 and the material storage tray 41 is shown. Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the material taking / discharging tray 33 may include a tray portion 331 and a connecting portion 332, and the tray portion 331 may include an inner peripheral portion 3311 and a first supporting structure. The first supporting structure is used to support the material 1 on the material taking / discharging tray 33, and the connecting portion 332 is used to connect the tray portion 331 to the bracket plate 32. Accordingly, each material storage tray 41 may include an outer peripheral portion 412 with a circumferential notch 411, and a second supporting structure located radially inward of the outer peripheral portion 412 and corresponding to the first supporting structure. The second supporting structure is used to support the material 1 on the material storage tray 41.

[0031] Especially from Figure 5From the top, when the material taking / discharging tray 33 is engaged with the material storage tray 41, the outer peripheral part 412 roughly corresponds to the radial outer side of the first supporting structure, the inner peripheral part 3311 roughly corresponds to the radial inner side of the second supporting structure, and the first supporting structure and the second supporting structure are adapted to each other, and the connecting part 332 of the material taking / discharging tray 33 is adapted to the circumferential notch 411, thereby making it possible for the connecting part 332 of the material taking / discharging tray 33 and the first supporting structure to respectively pass through the circumferential notch 411 on the material storage tray 41 and the second supporting structure in the vertical direction (from bottom to top or from top to bottom), so that the material 1 to be weighed on the second supporting structure can be transferred to the first supporting structure before the weighing test, or the weighed material 1 on the first supporting structure can be transferred to the second supporting structure after the weighing test.

[0032] Specifically, Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the first support structure of the material taking / discharging tray 33 may include a plurality of first support portions 3312 and a plurality of first notches 3313 alternately arranged along the circumferential direction on the radial outer side of the inner peripheral portion 3311. The plurality of first support portions 3312 provide a first support surface for placing the material 1. Correspondingly, the second support structure of the material storage tray 41 may include a plurality of second support portions 413 and a plurality of second notches 414 alternately arranged along the circumferential direction on the radial inner side of the outer peripheral portion 412. The plurality of second support portions 413 provide a second support surface for placing the material 1. Each second notch 414 is adapted to the corresponding first support portion 3312 to allow the first support portion 3312 to pass through the corresponding second notch 414 in the vertical direction (from bottom to top or from top to bottom). Each first notch 3313 is adapted to the corresponding second support portion 413 to allow each second support portion 413 to pass through the corresponding first notch 3313 in the vertical direction (from bottom to top or from top to bottom).

[0033] Alternatively, see especially Figure 5 A first limiting flange 3314 is provided on the radially outer side of each first supporting portion 3312. Each first limiting flange 3314 is provided on the radially outer side of each first supporting portion 3312. Figure 5 As shown, the upper portion protrudes beyond the first supporting surface, thereby defining a limiting cavity for placing the material 1 on the picking / discharging tray 33 through a plurality of first limiting flanges 3314 and the first supporting surface.

[0034] Correspondingly, a second limiting flange 415 protruding beyond the second supporting surface is arranged on the radial outer side of the second supporting portion 413, thereby a limiting cavity for placing the material 1 on the storage tray 41 is jointly defined by the plurality of second limiting flanges 415 and the second supporting surface.

[0035] When the material 1 is used as the sampling filter paper, it may include a frame portion and a relatively thin filter paper disposed in the frame portion. In the process of moving the filter paper upward, in order to prevent the filter paper from touching the material taking / discharging tray 33 or the material storage tray 41 and affecting the experimental results, refer to Figure 5 As shown, the inner circumference 3311 of the tray portion 331 defines a surface, which is sunken by a distance relative to the first supporting surface, thereby forming a first sunken portion 3315 that can avoid the material 1. Correspondingly, the radial inner side of each second supporting portion 413 can also be sunken by a distance relative to the second supporting surface, thereby forming a second sunken portion 416 that can avoid the material 1.

[0036] Return to reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the storage mechanism 4 may include at least one first storage box 42 and at least one second storage box 43 arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction. The first storage box 42 is used to store the weighed material 1, and the second storage box 43 is used to store the material 1 to be weighed. Each first storage box 42 and the corresponding second storage box 43 may be as shown in FIG. Figure 5 For example, there are two pairs of first material storage boxes 42 and second material storage boxes 43, the first pair is arranged side by side on both sides of the first direction, so that the material taking / putting tray 33 can take and put the material 1 back and forth in the first direction. The second pair is arranged side by side on both sides of the second direction opposite to the first direction, so that the material taking / putting tray 33 can take and put the material 1 back and forth in the first direction. Optionally, as Figure 7 As shown, the first material storage box 42 and the second material storage box 43 may each include a box body 44 and a plurality of material storage trays 41 arranged on the box body and spaced apart from each other in the vertical direction.

[0037] In order to place the first material storage box 42 and the second material storage box 43 at their respective working positions, so as to place the weighed material 1 on the material receiving / discharging tray 33 into the material storage tray 41 in the first material storage box 42, or to transfer the material 1 to be weighed on the material storage tray 41 in the second material storage box 43 to the material receiving / discharging tray 33, the storage mechanism 4 may further include: Figure 3 The motor 45 and the turntable 46 shown. The motor 45 is fixed to the frame structure 5, and the output end of the motor 45 is connected to the turntable 46 to rotate the turntable 46 by the motor actuation. A plurality of first storage boxes 42 and a plurality of second storage boxes 43 are fixed to the turntable 46, and the first storage boxes 42 and the second storage boxes 43 can be driven by the motor 45 to rotate synchronously with the turntable 46.

[0038] Specifically, refer to Figure 7As shown, the box body 44 of the first storage box 42 or the second storage box 43 may include a base 441, an upper cover 442 and a plurality of columns 443. The base 441 may be fixed to the turntable 6 via a plurality of fasteners (e.g., bolts), the lower ends of the plurality of columns 443 are connected to the base 441, and the upper cover 442 is connected to the upper ends of the plurality of columns 443, thereby forming a support frame for a plurality of storage trays 41. A plurality of positioning grooves 4431 spaced apart from each other are provided on each column in the vertical direction, and the width of each positioning groove 4431 is adapted to the thickness of the storage tray 41, thereby a storage tray 41 may be fixed by the positioning grooves 4431 of the plurality of columns 443 located on the same vertical level. As shown Figure 7 In the specific embodiment shown, six positioning posts 443 are provided, and the base 441 and the upper cover 442 are roughly square or rectangular in structure, so that the first storage box 42 and the second storage box 43 are provided with two positioning posts 443 on three of the four vertical faces, thereby allowing the circumferential notch 411 of the storage tray 41 to be exposed on the remaining face, thereby allowing the material taking / discharging tray 33 to be inserted from this face into the first storage box 42 or the second storage box 43 for material taking / discharging operations.

[0039] Optionally, the automatic weighing device may further include a weighing balance (not shown), which may be an ultra-micro balance with a resolution of 0.1 micrograms, and the portion of the weighing balance where the material 1 is placed is roughly circular. Figure 4 As shown, the inner peripheral portion 3311 of the tray portion 331 may include a central through hole 33111 and an open notch 33112. The central through hole 33111 is adapted to the circular portion of the weighing scale for placing the material 1, so that when the material 1 to be weighed on the material taking / discharging tray 33 is transferred to the weighing scale (i.e., the material 1 is transferred before weighing), or when the weighed material 1 on the weighing scale is transferred to the material taking / discharging tray 33 (i.e., the material 1 is transferred after weighing), the weighing scale can transfer the material 1 through the central through hole 33111. The radial outer end of the open notch 33112 is connected to one of the first notches 3313 (see Figure 4 ), the radial inner end is connected to the central through hole 33111, thereby providing an open space for avoiding the weighing scale before or after weighing.

[0040] Figure 1 and Figure 2 Also shown is a barcode scanner 6 disposed on one side of the material storage mechanism 4. An identification code is disposed on each material 1. After the material 1 is taken from the material storage tray 41 by the material taking / discharging tray 33, the material 1 can be moved to the barcode scanner 6, and the identification code is read by the barcode scanner 6, so that the weighing data of the material 1 measured subsequently can be managed into the data group corresponding to the identification code, thereby automatically recording and managing the weighing data, reducing the risk of process and data errors.

[0041] Moreover, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the manipulator 31 and the motor 45 can be connected to the control cabinet outside the environmental chamber 2, so that the operator can operate the manipulator to take and place the material 1 during the weighing process, and the first storage box 42 and the second storage box 43 can be set in the working position through the motor to facilitate the taking / putting tray 33 to take and place the material 1 between the storage tray 41 and the weighing scale.

[0042] Industrial Applicability

[0043] The automatic weighing system according to the utility model is suitable for measuring the particle emission of fuel engines, especially gasoline engines. However, it should be understood that the automatic weighing system according to the utility model can also be used to measure other fine particles, such as pollen, dust and other fine particles.

[0044] Below Figures 1 to 7 Taking the illustrated embodiment as an example, the working process of the automatic weighing system according to the utility model is briefly described.

[0045] First, the operator places a plurality of materials 1 to be weighed into the storage tray 41 of the second storage box 43 one by one, so that the materials 1 are limited in the limiting cavity formed by the plurality of second limiting flanges 415 of the storage tray and the second supporting surface.

[0046] Secondly, the operator adjusts the second material storage box 43 to the working position through the control cabinet next to the environmental bin 2, and operates the manipulator 31 to adjust the movement in six degrees of freedom, so that the material taking / discharging tray 33 arranged at its free end can be inserted into the vertical gap between two adjacent material storage trays 41, and each first supporting portion 3312 is aligned with the corresponding second notch 414, and each second supporting portion 413 is aligned with the corresponding first notch 3313, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 shown.

[0047] Again, the manipulator 31 moves upward along the vertical direction with the pick-up / discharge tray 33, so that the connecting portion 332 of the pick-up / discharge tray 33 passes through the circumferential notch 411 of the storage tray 41 until it reaches Figure 5 In the position shown, the material 1 is supported on the first supporting surface of the material taking / discharging tray 33 and the second supporting surface of the material storage tray 41 at the same time, and is limited by the limiting cavities of the material taking / discharging tray 33 and the material storage tray 41 at the same time.

[0048] Then, the manipulator 31 continues to move upward along the vertical direction with the pick-up / discharge tray 33, so that the pick-up / discharge tray 33 can lift the material 1 upward. In this way, the material 1 can be separated from the storage tray 41 and only limited on the first supporting surface of the pick-up / discharge tray 33 by the plurality of first limiting flanges 3314, as shown in FIG. Figure 6When the connecting portion 332 completely passes through the circumferential notch 411 of the material storage tray 41 and each first supporting portion 3312 completely passes through the corresponding second notch 414, the manipulator 31 moves with the material loading / unloading tray 33 and the material 1 to the barcode scanner 6 for identification, and then moves to the weighing scale.

[0049] Finally, the material taking / putting tray 33 moves to the top of the weighing scale and moves the material 1 downward in the vertical direction, so that the weighing scale can completely pass through the central through hole 33111 of the material taking / putting tray 33, thereby placing the material 1 on the weighing scale. After weighing, the manipulator 31 separates the material taking / putting tray 33 and the weighed material from the weighing scale.

[0050] After weighing, the process of transferring the weighed material 1 into the first material storage box 42 can refer to the reverse operation of the above steps, which will not be repeated here.

[0051] As described above, the automatic weighing system according to the utility model passes through the circumferential notch 411 of the material storage tray 41 in the vertical direction through the connecting portion 332 on the material taking / discharging tray 33, and passes through the second supporting structure of the material storage tray 41 through the first supporting structure on the material taking / discharging tray 33, so that the material 1 to be weighed can be transferred from the second supporting structure to the first supporting structure, or the weighed material 1 can be transferred from the first supporting structure to the second supporting structure. The entire weighing process is completely completed in a constant temperature and humidity environment chamber, replacing the manual measurement in the prior art, greatly overcoming the defects of low efficiency and large errors in the prior art when using manual micro-scale measurement, recording and calculation.

[0052] For those skilled in the art, various modifications and variations may be made to the embodiments disclosed above without departing from the scope or spirit of the utility model. Other embodiments of the utility model will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the practice of the utility model disclosed in this specification. This specification and the examples disclosed therein should be considered to be illustrative only, and the true scope of the utility model is specified by the appended claims and their equivalents.
