[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present utility model will be specifically described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings form a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present utility model to explain the principle of the present utility model, rather than to limit the scope of the present utility model.
[0021] As Figure 1 shown, a feeding and metering system with an automatic cleaning function provided by the present utility model includes a feeding and metering device 100, a cleaning component 200, and a detection component 300. The feeding and metering device 100 includes a metering bin 110. The cleaning component 200 includes a conduit 210 and a nozzle 220. One end of the conduit 210 is externally connected to a high-pressure flowing medium, and the other end of the conduit 210 extends into the metering bin 110 and is communicated with the nozzle 220. The nozzle 220 is arranged to point to the inner wall of the metering bin 110 for guiding the high-pressure flowing medium to clean the inner wall of the metering bin 110. The detection component 300 includes a camera 310 installed in the metering bin 110 for photographing the inner wall of the metering bin 110.
[0022] During implementation, when caked materials adhere to the inner wall of the metering bin 110, it can be known in a timely manner through the images captured by the camera 310. The high-pressure flowing medium is externally connected through the conduit 210, and the high-pressure flowing medium is guided by the nozzle 220 to clean the inner wall of the metering bin 110, flushing down the caked substances, thereby completing the cleaning process, replacing manual cleaning, saving time and effort, and being convenient to use.
[0023] The feeding and metering device 100 in this implementation scheme includes a metering bin 110. Among them, the top of the metering bin 110 is the feed inlet, and the bottom is the discharge outlet. The metering bin 110 is composed of a cylindrical structure in the upper part and an inverted conical structure in the lower part. The feeding and metering device 100 further includes a base 120 and a weighing module 130. The weighing module 130 is installed above the base 120, and the metering bin 110 is installed on the weighing module 130.
[0024] The above-mentioned weighing module 130 can adopt an electronic scale, etc. By weighing the weight of the metering bin 110 before and after feeding, the feeding amount can be known, thereby realizing the process of precise control.
[0025] The cleaning component 200 in this implementation scheme includes a conduit 210 and a nozzle 220. One end of the conduit 210 is externally connected to a high-pressure flowing medium, and the other end of the conduit 210 extends into the metering bin 110 and is communicated with the nozzle 220. The nozzle 220 is arranged to point to the inner wall of the metering bin 110 for guiding the high-pressure flowing medium to clean the inner wall of the metering bin 110.
[0026] It can be understood that the above-mentioned high-pressure flowing medium can adopt high-pressure water flow or high-pressure air flow.
[0027] As Figure 2As shown, the spray head 220 is a spherical housing 221, and water outlet holes 222 are uniformly arranged on the outer wall of the spherical housing 221. The top of the spherical housing 221 is communicated with the conduit 210.
[0028] In one embodiment, to enable the high-pressure flowing medium guided out by the spray head 220 to cover the entire inner wall of the metering bin 110, the number of conduits 210 and spray heads 220 is multiple, and the multiple spray heads 220 are uniformly arranged along the circumferential direction of the metering bin 110.
[0029] In one embodiment, a valve 230 is installed on the conduit 210 to control the on / off of the conduit 210. Among them, the valve 230 can be an electromagnetic butterfly valve or the like.
[0030] The detection component 300 in this embodiment includes a camera 310 installed in the metering bin 110 for photographing the inner wall of the metering bin 110.
[0031] As Figure 3 shown, to avoid the high-pressure water flow from blurring the lens of the camera 310, in this embodiment, a protective cover 311 is further included. The protective cover 311 is arranged to wrap the camera 310, the protective cover 311 is inclined downward and points to the inner wall of the metering bin 110, and an opening is formed at the bottom of the protective cover 311. The camera 310 is arranged away from the opening.
[0032] Among them, the protective cover 311 is a cylindrical structure, its top is closed, and an opening is formed at the bottom, having good waterproof performance.
[0033] In this embodiment, a protective mesh 312 and a protective glass 313 are further included. The protective glass 313 and the protective mesh 312 are sequentially installed at the opening of the protective cover 311 along the inclined downward direction. Among them, the protective mesh 312 can intercept the water vapor entering the protective cover 311, and at the same time, the protective glass 313 realizes the function of closing the opening.
[0034] It can be understood that to avoid the protective mesh 312 affecting the shooting effect of the camera 310, the protective mesh 312 can be implemented by a plurality of inclined plates arranged in sequence along the inclined downward direction, and the shooting direction of the camera 310 is arranged through the gaps between the plurality of inclined plates.
[0035] In one embodiment, the number of cameras 310 is multiple, and the multiple cameras 310 are uniformly arranged along the circumferential direction of the metering bin 110.
[0036] In one embodiment, the detection component 300 further includes a controller 320. The controller 320 is electrically connected to the camera 310 to receive the image information captured by the camera 310. The controller 320 is electrically connected to the valve 230, and the controller 320 controls the action of the valve 230 according to the image information.
[0037] It can be understood that the controller 320 can be implemented by adopting a structure such as a PCL. The specific working principle is as follows. The real-time image information captured by the camera 310 is compared with the pre-stored image information in the database, and it can be judged whether there is caked material adhering to the inner wall of the metering bin 110. At this time, the controller 320 can control the valve 230 to open to achieve the cleaning function.
[0038] Compared with the prior art: when there is caked material adhering to the inner wall of the metering bin 110, it can be known in time through the picture captured by the camera 310. A high-pressure flowing medium is externally connected through the conduit 210, and the high-pressure flowing medium is guided by the nozzle 220 to clean the inner wall of the metering bin 110, and the caked material is washed down, thus completing the cleaning process, replacing manual cleaning, saving time and effort, and being convenient to use.
[0039] The above is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
