Second, prevent material leakage and blockage: open a vent on the pot cover, and use an air pump to evacuate air, so that the material can smoothly enter the pot body, and prevent the problem of material leakage and blockage. This not only reduces the waste of raw materials, but also avoids environmental pollution and the workload of cleaning and maintenance.

[0028] In the prior art, since the material adding device of the mixing pot is connected to the mixing pot through a pipeline, material leakage and blockage and spillage are prone to occur during the material transportation process, resulting in a waste of raw materials and environmental pollution.

[0029] In view of this, the present invention provides a mixing pot, referring to Figure 1 , including a pot body 1 and a pot cover 3, the pot body 1 is fixed on a fixing frame 2; a bottom plate located at the bottom of the pot body 1 is installed inside the pot body 1, and a first sensor 101 is installed in the bottom plate. When the material enters the pot body 1, the first sensor 101 is used to detect the weight of the material.

[0030] The pot cover 3 is provided with an air vent 301 which passes through the pot cover 3, a first feed hole 302, a second feed hole 303 and a feeding hole; the air vent 301 is connected to an air pump; the first feed hole 302 is connected to a liquid material discharging device; the second feed hole 303 is connected to a powder material discharging device, and the liquid material and the powder material enter the pot body 1 from different paths, which can prevent the materials from sticking at the feeding position and causing material blockage; the feeding hole is covered with a cover plate rotatably connected to the pot cover 3; a first protrusion 304 and a second protrusion 305 protrude outward from the side of the pot cover 3, and the centers of the first protrusion 304 and the second protrusion 305 are located on the same straight line; a stirring paddle 306 is also installed in the pot cover 3, and the stirring paddle 306 is electrically connected to the motor.

When the materials are mixed, the third discharge hole is used to discharge the mixed materials.

[0032] In some embodiments, the first sensor 101 is a photoelectric switch.

[0033] In some embodiments, the second sensor 5 is a gravity sensor.

[0034] In some embodiments, the first cylinder 4 is a piston cylinder.

[0035] In some embodiments, the third discharge hole is connected to the tee pipe 7, and the two pipes of the tee pipe 7 that are not connected to the third discharge hole are defined as a control pipe and a discharge pipe 702. The control pipe is higher than the discharge pipe 702, and a second cylinder 701 is installed in the control pipe. A baffle is fixed at the lifting end of the second cylinder 701, and the surface area of ​​the baffle is not less than the hole area of ​​the third discharge hole; the discharge valve is installed on the discharge pipe 702.

[0036] In some embodiments, the second cylinder 701 is a piston cylinder.

[0037] In some embodiments, a soft pad is attached to the surface of the baffle plate for covering the third discharge hole. The soft pad is a high temperature resistant soft gasket, including a high temperature resistant rubber gasket. When the baffle plate covers the third discharge hole, the third discharge hole can be sealed to prevent material leakage.

[0038] In some embodiments, a rubber ring is bonded to the pot cover 3, and when the pot cover 3 is buckled on the pot body 1, the rubber ring is used to block the gap between the pot cover 3 and the pot body 1. The rubber ring is used to block the gap to prevent material leakage.

[0039] In some embodiments, there is at least one buckle lock 6, and each buckle lock 6 corresponds to a second protrusion 305 located on the pot cover 3; when the number of buckle locks 6 is greater than 1, if the mixing pot is viewed from above, the center of one buckle lock 6, the center of the pot body 1 and the center of the first protrusion 304 are located on the same straight line.

[0040] In some embodiments, a soft pad is also attached to the surface of the cover plate for covering the feeding hole. The soft pad is a high temperature resistant soft gasket, including a high temperature resistant rubber gasket. When the cover plate covers the feeding hole, it can seal the feeding hole to prevent material leakage.

[0041] The working principle of a mixing pot provided by the embodiment of the utility model is: when in use, the pot cover 3 is buckled with the pot body 1, the cover plate covers the feeding hole, the baffle plate covers the third discharge hole, and the air pump continues to work to pump air. First, the powder is input from the second feeding hole 303, and the first sensor 101 detects the weight of the powder. When the required input amount is reached, the powder input is stopped, and then the cover plate is opened, the formula material, pigment, etc. are input, and then the cover plate is re-covered; then the liquid material is input through the first feeding hole 302, and the air pump is turned off when the liquid material is input. The first sensor 101 detects the weight of the liquid material, and when the required input amount is reached, the liquid material input is stopped. When the pot cover 3 is buckled with the pot body 1, the stirring paddle 306 is in an energized state that can be turned on at any time. At this time, according to actual production needs, it can be selected to stir while inputting the liquid material, or it can be stirred after the liquid material is input. After stirring, the second cylinder 701 works, the baffle plate retreats, and the mixed material is discharged from the discharge pipe 702. At this time, the air pump can be turned on to blow air into the pot body 1 to assist the discharge of the mixed material. After the discharge is completed, the buckle lock 6 is opened, the first cylinder 4 is activated, and the pot cover 3 is lifted. At this time, the stirring paddle 306 is in a power-off state and cannot be opened, and the operator can operate the inside of the pot body 1 safely.

[0042] In summary, the mixing pot provided by the utility model has the following advantages: First, precise control of material discharge: a first sensor 101 is installed on the bottom plate at the bottom of the pot body 1, which can detect the amount of material entering the pot body 1 in real time, thereby realizing precise material discharge control, which can ensure the accuracy of each feeding amount, avoid the problem of inaccurate material discharge, improve the quality and consistency of the product, and the automated material discharge control reduces the error of manual operation, and improves the stability and reliability of the production process. Second, prevent material leakage and blockage: a vent hole 301 is opened on the pot cover 3, and an air pump is used to evacuate air, so that the material can smoothly enter the pot body 1, and prevent the problem of material leakage and blockage. This not only reduces the waste of raw materials, but also avoids environmental pollution and the workload of cleaning and maintenance. The air extraction mechanism ensures the smooth transportation of materials, avoids pipeline blockage and material retention, and improves production efficiency. Third, the operation is convenient and safe: a feeding hole is opened on the pot cover 3 and sealed with a cover plate, making the input of the formula material more convenient and safe. The operator does not need to frequently open the pot cover 3, reducing the complexity and labor intensity of the operation. The design of the feeding hole makes the feeding process simpler and more efficient, while reducing the risk of direct contact between the operator and the material, improving the safety of operation. Fourth, an intelligent safety protection mechanism is established: the pot cover 3 and the pot body 1 are connected by a first cylinder 4, and a second sensor 5 is installed on the first cylinder 4. When the pot cover 3 is opened, the second sensor 5 cannot detect the pot cover 3, and the stirring paddle 306 installed on the pot cover 3 cannot operate; when the pot cover 3 is buckled on the pot body 1, the second sensor 5 detects the pot cover 3, and the stirring paddle 306 can operate. This design ensures that the stirring paddle 306 can only operate when the pot cover 3 is completely closed, thereby ensuring the safety of the operator. The intelligent safety protection mechanism prevents misoperation, avoids possible safety accidents, and improves the safety of the production process. Fifth, the high degree of automation improves production efficiency: various sensors and automatic control devices improve the automation of the mixing pot system, realize efficient automatic batching and mixing processes, reduce reliance on manual operations, and make the production process more efficient and flexible through automated and intelligent control methods. They can adjust and optimize the mixing process in real time, improving overall production efficiency and product quality. Sixth, reduce downtime and increase equipment utilization: through precise material detection and automated feeding control, production downtime caused by insufficient materials or inaccurate feeding is reduced, equipment utilization is increased, and the mechanism to prevent material leakage and blockage reduces cleaning and maintenance time, further improving the continuity and stability of the production line.

[0043] Although the present invention has been disclosed as above with preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. A person with ordinary knowledge in the technical field to which the present invention belongs may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be determined by the definition of the claims.
