[0024] The following is a description of a spherical particle classification device of the utility model in conjunction with a schematic diagram, wherein a preferred embodiment of the utility model is shown. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can modify the utility model described herein and still achieve the beneficial effects of the utility model. Therefore, the following description should be understood as being widely known to those skilled in the art and not as a limitation to the utility model.

[0025] The present invention is described in more detail in the following paragraphs by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. The advantages and features of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description. It should be noted that the accompanying drawings are in very simplified form and in non-precise proportions, and are only used to conveniently and clearly assist in explaining the purpose of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0026] This embodiment provides a spherical particle classification device 5131, including: at least one spherical particle queue channel 5132, a spherical particle classification output channel 5134 and a dial classification device 5136.

[0027] For details, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 2 The output end of any spherical particle queue channel 5132 is connected to any first input end of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134, and the input end of any spherical particle queue channel 5132 can be connected to any upstream material sorting device. Any particle 103 that has completed material sorting falls into the spherical particle classification device 5131 from the input end of the spherical particle queue channel 5132.

[0028] The cross section of the spherical particle queue channel 5132 can be any shape, such as a circle or a V shape, and its cross-sectional area can be selected according to the number of spherical particle queues, and the channel length can be selected according to process requirements. The spherical particle queue channel 5132 allows the particles 103 to be arranged in one or more queues under the action of gravity or other external forces.

[0029] In addition, the port area of ​​the first input end of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 can be selected according to actual needs. For example, when it is necessary to perform classification operations on the queue particles, the port area of ​​the first input end can be set to be slightly larger than the surface area of ​​a single particle 103 and smaller than the sum of the surface areas of two particles 103, so as to only allow a single particle 103 to fall into the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 from the first input end.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1In the present embodiment, the cross-sections of the spherical particle queue channel 5132 and the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 are both circular, the output channel of the spherical particle queue channel 5132 is arranged perpendicular to the spherical particle classification output channel 5134, and the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 is arranged horizontally, so that the particles 103 can be affected by gravity and smoothly transition from the spherical particle queue channel 5132 to the spherical particle classification output channel 5134, avoiding jamming at the channel connection and causing damage to the particles 103.

[0031] Furthermore, the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 is also provided with the dial classification device 5136, and at least one particle inlet 51333 and at least one particle outlet 51334 are provided in the dial classification device 5136. The areas of the particle inlet 51333 and the particle outlet 51334 can be slightly larger than the surface area of ​​a single particle 103. When sampling of multiple particles 103 is required, the areas of the particle inlet 51333 and the particle outlet 51334 can be set to be larger than the total surface area of ​​the multiple particles 103.

[0032] Among them, any particle inlet 51333 is arranged at a position directly opposite to any first input end of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 , so that a single particle 103 can smoothly fall into the particle inlet 51333 of the dial classification device 5136 .

[0033] In a specific example, the dial particle sorting device 5136 includes a turntable 51331 and a sampling channel 51332 .

[0034] For details, please refer to Figure 2 The sampling channel 51332 is arranged around the outer circumference of the rotating disk 51331. The sampling channel 51332 is provided with particle outlets 51334 arranged in sequence according to a preset interval, and the particle outlets 51334 are staggered with the particle inlet 51333. In a specific example, the particle outlet 51334 and the particle inlet 51333 are symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the rotating disk 51331. The rotating disk 51331 is pushed by an external force to drive the particles 103 to rotate, and the particles 103 are pushed from the particle inlet 51333 to the particle outlet 51334.

[0035] In a specific example, the number of particle outlets 51334 and particle inlets 51333 can be set to be the same, and any particle inlet 51333 can be connected to any particle outlet 51334 after rotation. The arrangement distance between the particle outlets 51334 is determined according to the arrangement spacing between the output ends of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134. Any particle outlet 51334 on the sampling channel 51332 needs to be set corresponding to any output end of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134, so that different output ports in the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 can release particles 103 at the same time. In another specific example, one particle outlet 51334 can also be set to correspond to multiple particle inlets 51333, and the particles 103 are sequentially input into different output ports of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 by rotating the turntable 51331 by external force. Those skilled in the art can set different numbers of particle outlets 51334 and particle inlets 51333 according to actual process requirements.

[0036] In this example, the vertical distance between the bottom surface of the particle inlet 51333 and the first input end of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 needs to be set according to the actual number of classifications, so that the particles 103 are all clamped at the connection between the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 and the spherical particle queue channel 5132 before entering the particle inlet 51331, and will not accumulate in the spherical particle classification output channel 5134.

[0037] In this example, the dial particle classification device 5136 is fixed to the spherical particle classification output channel 5134, and the fixing method includes flange connection, threaded connection, etc. It can be understood that the structure of the dial particle classification device 5136 is not limited to this, and those skilled in the art can select a dial particle classification device 5136 with different structures according to actual conditions.

[0038] Furthermore, the spherical particle classification device 5131 also includes an external force channel 5133, the output end of the external force channel 5133 is connected to the second input end of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134, and after the external force is input into the external force channel 5133, the particle 103 is pushed to rotate from the particle inlet 51333 to the particle outlet 51334, and enters the spherical particle classification output channel 5134 from the particle outlet 51334, and finally falls into the particle collection device through the output end of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134.

[0039] In a specific example, the cross-sectional area of ​​the external force channel 5133 is smaller than the surface area of ​​the single particle 103 , thereby preventing the particle from rolling into the external force channel 5133 .

[0040] In another specific example, the external force channel 5133 is horizontally arranged to achieve a larger external force output.

[0041] In a specific example, an external force can be applied by a pneumatic device, a magnetic device or a motor drive device, and the external force includes thrust and suction. The release of the thrust and suction may occur at a certain time interval. When the particle 103 falls into the particle inlet 51333, the thrust is applied to cause the particle inlet 51333 of the turntable 51331 to rotate to the particle outlet 51334; when the particle 103 falls into the spherical particle classification output channel 5134, the suction is applied to cause the particle inlet 51333 to rotate to a position facing the first input end of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134.

[0042] In addition, a particle positioning groove 5135 is further provided in the spherical particle classification output channel 5134, and the particle positioning groove 5135 is connected to the particle inlet 51333. The depth of the particle positioning groove 5135 is not specifically limited here, and it can limit the position of a single particle 103 and enable the particle 103 to move under the push of an external force. The cross-section of the particle positioning groove 5135 is not specifically limited here, and it depends on the number of particles to be classified. In a specific example, the particle positioning groove 5135 is a spherical groove, which can evenly disperse the force on the particle, helping to prevent the particle 103 from being damaged or deformed.

[0043] In summary, when the upper spherical particle classification device 5131 is used to sample a single particle, there is no need to use a manipulator or a suction cup to grab or suck the spherical particles, and the external force cannot directly contact the particles 103, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the particles 103, and the above device has a simple structure and low design cost. By changing the size of the first input port of the spherical particle classification output channel 5134, the particle inlet 51333 of the dial classification device 5136, and the particle positioning groove 5135, it is possible to sample multiple particles 103, thereby improving the sampling efficiency.

[0044] Furthermore, the application fields of the spherical particle classification device 5131 include but are not limited to the fields of medicine, food and chemical industry. Specifically, the specific working process of the spherical particle classification device 5131 is as follows:

[0045] The spherical particles 103 pass through the upstream material sorting device and fall into the spherical particle queue channel 5132. Under the action of gravity or other external forces, they are arranged in a queue and fall from the output end of the spherical particle queue channel 5132 into the dial granulation device 5136 in the spherical particle granulation output channel 5134. As the dial granulation device 5136 rotates, when the particle inlet 51333 of the dial granulation device 5136 rotates to the position of the first input end of the spherical particle granulation output channel 5134, the front spherical particle 103 of the queue spherical particles falls into the particle inlet 51333 of the dial granulation device 5136, rotates to the spherical particle granulation output channel 5134 with the dial granulation device 5136, and rolls out from the output port of the spherical particle granulation output channel 5134 and falls into the sub-packaging container 101.

[0046] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
