For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by specific circumstances.
[0039] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.
[0040] The utility model provides a feed tank of a solid control device with automatic feeding and discharging, comprising a tank body 4, a feed port 8 and an overflow port 3 are provided on the top of the tank body 4, and discharge ports 7 are provided at both ends of the bottom of the tank body 4. Mud is input into the tank body 4 from the feed port 8, and the discharge port 7 is connected to a spin dryer through a pipeline, and the mud in the tank body 4 is transported to the spin dryer by a pump body. The overflow port 3 is connected to a cuttings box, and when the input mud exceeds the volume of the tank body 4, the excess mud is introduced into a temporary cuttings box from the overflow port 3 on the top of the tank body 4.
[0041] The discharge port 7 of the tank body 4 is equipped with a discharge electric valve for controlling the opening and closing of the discharge port 7. The overflow port 3 of the tank body 4 is equipped with an overflow electric valve for controlling the opening and closing of the overflow port 3. A liquid level sensor is installed in the tank body 4 for detecting the change of the mud liquid level. The tank body 4 is also provided with a controller 2, and the liquid level sensor is electrically connected to the controller 2, and the collected liquid level height data is transmitted to the controller 2 for analysis. The controller 2 is electrically connected to the discharge electric valve and the overflow electric valve respectively, and is used to control the opening and closing of the electric valve.
[0042] In a specific embodiment, two liquid levels are preset as high liquid level 1, high liquid level 2 and low liquid level according to the volume of the tank body 4, and high liquid level 2 is located above high liquid level 1. In the feeding state, mud is transported into the tank, and the discharge electric valve is closed. When the liquid level sensor detects that the mud liquid level in the tank reaches high liquid level 1, a signal is sent to the controller 2 to control the discharge electric valve to open, thereby controlling the discharge port 7 to open for discharge; when the liquid level continues to rise to high liquid level 2, the liquid level sensor sends a signal to the controller 2 to control the overflow electric valve to open, thereby opening the overflow port 3, and the mud is introduced into the temporary cuttings box from the overflow port 3; when the liquid level drops from high liquid level 2 to high liquid level 1, the liquid level sensor sends a signal to the controller 2 to control the overflow electric valve to close, thereby controlling the overflow port 3 to close; when the liquid level continues to drop to the low liquid level, the liquid level sensor sends a signal to the controller 2 to control the discharge electric valve to close, thereby controlling the discharge port 7 to close. The opening and closing of the electric valve is controlled by the liquid level sensor interlock, so as to realize the automatic discharge of the equipment.
[0043] Furthermore, in order to maintain the fluidity of the mud in the tank and ensure smooth discharge, when it is detected that the fluidity of the mud is too poor, clean water is poured into the tank body 4 for dilution, thereby reducing the viscosity of the mud. A filling port 5 for pouring clean water is provided at the top of the tank body 4. A clean water solenoid valve is installed in the filling port 5 to control the on and off of the fluid in the filling port 5. An agitator is installed in the tank body 4, and the agitator is used to stir the mud synchronously during the filling process to ensure sufficient dilution of the mud. A flow sensor is installed in the tank body 4 to detect the fluidity of the mud. The flow sensor is electrically connected to the controller 2, and its fluidity is determined by detecting the mud flow rate. The controller 2 is electrically connected to the clean water solenoid valve and the agitator to control the operation of the clean water solenoid valve and the agitator.
[0044] To further ensure uniform dilution of the slurry, the interior of the tank body 4 is divided into a plurality of cavities 42 by a partition 41, and the cavities 42 are connected to each other. After the slurry is input into the tank body 4 from the feed port 8, it is distributed in the plurality of cavities 42. Specifically, the discharge ports 7 are opened in pairs at the bottom of the cavities 42 at both ends of the tank body 4, and two agitators are installed in each cavity 42.
[0045] In a specific embodiment, the mud fluidity is detected by the mud flow rate. When the flow sensor detects that the mud flow rate is lower than the preset value, the mud viscosity is high and the fluidity is poor. The clean water solenoid valve and the agitator are controlled to start interlocking, and clean water is injected while stirring to ensure that the mud is fully diluted; when the flow sensor detects that the mud flow rate is higher than the preset value, the flow sensor sends a signal to the controller 2 to control the clean water solenoid valve and the agitator to close interlocking.
[0046] Furthermore, a bracket 6 is provided at the bottom of the tank body 4. Specifically, the bracket 6 includes a plurality of columns 62 and a plurality of diagonal bars 61, the columns 62 are arranged at intervals at the bottom of the tank body 4, and the top ends thereof are fixed to the tank body 4. The diagonal bars 61 are fixed between two adjacent columns 62 in an X shape. Preferably, the columns 62 and the diagonal bars 61 are made of I-beams. An escalator 63 is installed on one side of the bracket 6. A guardrail 1 is installed on the top of the tank body 4. Specifically, the guardrail 1 includes a plurality of longitudinal beams 12 and a plurality of transverse beams 11, and the longitudinal beams 12 are fixed at intervals at the top of the tank body 4. The longitudinal beams 12 are fixedly connected together by horizontally arranged transverse beams 11. Preferably, the longitudinal beams 12 and the transverse beams 11 are made of steel pipes.
[0047] The utility model monitors the input and output amounts of materials through sensors and controls the automatic opening and closing of the discharge port and the overflow port, replacing traditional manual observation, greatly improving the response speed of the equipment, and more accurately controlling the input and output amounts of materials. It realizes automatic control of the input and output of materials and the injection of clean water without the need for manual operation, thereby improving on-site work efficiency and saving labor costs.
[0048] The utility model monitors the mud flow in real time through sensors, and interlocks and controls the clean water solenoid valve and the agitator to start and stop synchronously, thereby realizing the synchronous filling of clean water and stirring, ensuring that the mud is fully diluted, avoiding the accumulation of mud at the bottom of the tank, and ensuring that the mud in the tank can be completely discharged.
[0049] Specifically, the information transmission, signal processing, control method, and control logic involved in this technical solution can be implemented using existing technologies.
