[0024] Refer to Figure 2 - Figure 4, An embodiment provided by the present utility model: A metal powder anti-leakage mixer, including a box body 1 designed to be strong enough to prevent deformation or damage under high-intensity working conditions. The bottom end of the box body 1 is fixedly connected with support legs 2. These support legs 2 not only ensure the stable placement of the mixer but also help reduce the vibration generated during work from being transmitted to the ground, thereby reducing noise and protecting the working environment. The top end of the box body 1 is fixedly connected with a feed box 3, which is the main channel for metal powder to enter the mixer. The top end of the feed box 3 is rotatably connected with a sealing component. This component is the key part to prevent powder leakage. The sealing component includes a sealing cover 4 for easy opening and closing. The right end of the sealing cover 4 is rotatably connected inside the top end of the feed box 3. The bottom end of the sealing cover 4 is fixedly connected with a sealing ring 5 to ensure that powder does not leak into the external environment during the screening and mixing process. The outside of the sealing ring 5 is in contact with the inside of the feed hole 6. The top end of the feed box 3 is provided with a feed hole 6. Through this hole, metal powder is loaded into the mixer. The top end inside the box body 1 is fixedly connected with a plurality of telescopic rods 7. A strong spring 8 is sleeved outside the telescopic rods 7. This structural design provides elastic support for the sieve plate 9. The bottom ends of the plurality of telescopic rods 7 are fixedly connected with a sieve plate 9. The outside of the sieve plate 9 is slidably connected inside the top end of the box body 1. One end of the strong spring 8 is fixedly connected to the top end inside the box body 1, and the other end of the strong spring 8 is fixedly connected to the top end of the sieve plate 9. Inside the top end of the sieve plate 9, two converging plates 10 are fixedly connected. The function of these plates is to effectively gather metal powder on the sieve plate 9 during the screening process, improving the uniformity and efficiency of screening. The bottom end of the sieve plate 9 is fixedly connected with an oscillator 11, which is the main component to provide power to make the sieve plate 9 vibrate. The sieve plate 9 can perform high-frequency vibration to improve the screening efficiency. A temporary storage hole 12 is provided inside the box body 1 for temporarily storing the metal powder that fails to pass through the sieve plate 9 during the screening process. The sieve plate 9 is responsible for screening the loaded metal powder, and the unqualified powder is temporarily stored in the temporary storage hole 12 and waits to be reprocessed. A plurality of guide pipes 13 are fixedly connected to the inside of the right side of the temporary storage hole 12. The outside of the guide pipes 13 is fixedly connected to the inside of the right side of the box body 1. The top ends of the plurality of guide pipes 13 are fixedly connected with an air pump 14. The left end of the air pump 14 is fixedly connected to the right side of the box body 1. The top end of the air pump 14 is fixedly connected with a plurality of circuit pipes 15. The function of the air pump 14 is to send the temporarily stored powder back to the feed box 3 through the guide pipes 13 and the circuit pipes 15, realizing the recycling of powder and minimizing material waste. The left end of the circuit pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the right end of the feed box 3.
[0025] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5, inside the bottom end of the box body 1, there is a mixing chamber 16 which is a place where metal powders are mixed after being screened. At the bottom end of the box body 1, there is a driving component fixedly connected, which is the core power part of the mixer. The driving component includes a motor 17. The top end of the motor 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the box body 1. The driving end of the motor 17 is fixedly connected with a mixing rod 18. On the outer side of the mixing rod 18, multiple mixing blades 19 are fixedly connected to the adjacent side. The outer bottom end of the mixing rod 18 is rotatably connected to the inside of the bottom end of the box body 1. Multiple mixing blades 19 are fixedly connected to the outside of the driving component to stir and mix the metal powders. Inside the mixing blade 19, there is a telescopic spring 20. On the inner walls of the opposite sides of multiple mixing blades 19, there are sliding rods 21 slidably connected. On the adjacent sides of multiple sliding rods 21, there are limiting disks 22 fixedly connected. The outside of the limiting disk 22 is slidably connected to the inside of the mixing blade 19. On the opposite sides of multiple sliding rods 21, there are two scraping plates 23 fixedly connected. The function of the scraping plates 23 is to scrape the powders on the inner wall of the mixing chamber 16 during the mixing process, prevent the powders from adhering and accumulating, ensure the cleanliness of the mixing chamber 16 and the consistency of the mixing process. One side of the scraping plate 23 is in contact with the inner wall of the mixing chamber 16. On the left side of the box body 1, there is a feeding hole 24 which is a channel for discharging the mixed metal powders.
[0026] Working principle: First, open the sealing cover 4, put the metal powders into the inside of the feeding box 3, then close the sealing cover 4. Under the action of the sealing ring 5, it will form a seal with the feeding hole 6. Then the metal powders put into the feeding box 3 will fall onto the sieve plate 9. At this time, start the oscillator 11. Driven by the oscillator 11, the sieve plate 9 will vibrate. Then, under the elastic support and resilience of the telescopic rod 7 and the strong spring 8, the vibration frequency of the sieve plate 9 increases, screening the metal powders inside. The qualified ones will pass through the sieve plate 9 and fall into the mixing chamber 16, and the unqualified ones will fall into the temporary storage hole 12 under the vibration of the sieve plate 9. Then start the air pump 14. Driven by the air pump 14, the powders inside the temporary storage hole 12 will pass through the guiding pipe 13 and then be conveyed into the inside of the circulating pipe 15, and then return to the inside of the feeding box 3 from the circulating pipe 15, then fall onto the sieve plate 9, and be repeatedly screened. Then the powders that fall into the mixing chamber 16 will be stirred by the mixing blades 19 under the drive of the motor 17 driving the mixing rod 18 for mixing. Then, under the action of the mixing blades 19, the sliding rod 21 will also be driven to make the scraping plate 23 move, so that the scraping plate 23 slides on the inner wall of the mixing chamber 16. Then, under the elastic support of the telescopic spring 20, the force will be transmitted to the scraping plate 23 through the limiting disk 22, making the scraping plate 23 closely adhere to the inner wall of the mixing chamber 16.
[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features.
