If too much is transported, it cannot be retrieved, and the sampling weight accuracy is not high, so the sampling weight cannot be accurately controlled. Summary of the Utility Model

[0065] In a specific embodiment, the automatic spiral sampling device is fixed on a movable truss. When taking materials, the movable truss drives the automatic spiral sampling device to move above the powder. The second power mechanism 3 drives the screw 42 to move downward into the powder, and then the first power mechanism 2 drives the screw 42 to rotate forward, and the second power mechanism 3 drives the screw 42 to move upward, which can bring the powder into the sampling cylinder 1. Then the movable truss drives the automatic spiral sampling device to move above the weighing device. The first power mechanism 2 drives the screw 42 to rotate in reverse, and the second power mechanism 3 drives the screw 42 to move downward, and the powder falls onto the weighing device. If too much powder is taken out, the second power mechanism 3 drives the screw 42 to move downward into the powder, and then the first power mechanism 2 drives the screw 42 to rotate forward, and the second power mechanism 3 drives the screw 42 to move upward, driving part of the powder back into the sampling cylinder 1 until the powder reaches the required weight. Specifically, the excess powder is retrieved by the screw 42 and continues to be stored in the sampling cylinder 1 and can be used again. Compared with manually retrieving the excess powder, it reduces the manual contact with the powder, avoids contaminating the powder, and reduces the waste of powder.
