[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of spraying equipment, in particular to a powder feeding device for viscous powder. Background Art
[0002] Currently, the most common powder feeders used in the spray coating industry are gravity-type and scraper-type powder feeders. When conveying sticky powders, these two types of feeders often experience blockage of the feed port due to powder agglomeration, resulting in low sticky powder conveying efficiency and even making sticky powders unusable in the spray coating industry.

[0009] a base fixedly mounted on the bottom of the base assembly, wherein a nitrogen inlet is provided on the base, wherein one end of the nitrogen inlet is respectively connected to one end of the first inlet valve and one end of the second inlet valve away from the base assembly;
[0010] An air intake pipeline is arranged on the top of the top cover, and one end of the air intake pipeline passes through the top cover and is connected to the hopper.
[0011] Preferably, the air intake pipeline is connected to a flow meter, a pressure regulating valve and a pressure relief valve.
[0012] Preferably, a sealing ring is provided between the top cover and the hopper to prevent air leakage.
[0013] Preferably, a pressure gauge for detecting the internal pressure is installed on the outer wall of the hopper.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model include: nitrogen gas introduced into the top of the hopper creates a pressure differential inside the hopper, enabling stable powder feeding. A gas vibrator is installed in the middle of the hopper to evenly disperse easily agglomerated powders, creating a turbulent atmosphere. Simultaneously, at the bottom of the hopper, the carrier gas transports the powder along a spiral powder guide structure to the powder feed pipe, achieving efficient powder feeding for sticky, easily agglomerated powders.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a powder feeding device for viscous powder includes:
[0026] The hopper 01 has a pneumatic vibrator 02 mounted on its outer wall, and the pneumatic vibrator 02 is provided with a first air inlet valve 10;
[0027] A top cover 06 is detachably connected to the top of the hopper 01;
[0028] A base assembly 11 is detachably connected to the bottom of the hopper 01. A feed chamber connected to the hopper 01 is provided inside the base assembly 11. A spiral powder guide structure is provided on the inner wall of the feed chamber. A second air inlet valve 15 and a powder feeding valve 16 are provided on one side of the base assembly 11. One end of the powder feeding valve 16 is connected to an end of the powder guide structure near the bottom of the base assembly 11. One end of the second air inlet valve 15 is connected to an end of the powder guide structure at the top of the base assembly 11.
[0029] A base 14 is fixed to the bottom of the base assembly 11. A nitrogen inlet 12 is provided on the base 14. One end of the nitrogen inlet 12 is respectively connected to one end of the first inlet valve 10 and one end of the second inlet valve 15 away from the base assembly 11;
[0030] An air intake pipeline is provided on the top of the top cover 06 , and one end of the air intake pipeline passes through the top cover 06 and is in communication with the hopper 01 .
[0031] For example, nitrogen is introduced into hopper 01 through an air inlet line, creating a pressure differential within hopper 01 to achieve stable powder delivery. A gas vibrator is installed in the middle of hopper 01, which oscillates under the power of the gas. This prevents sticky powder from adhering to the inner walls of hopper 01 and evenly disperses easily agglomerated powder, creating a turbulent atmosphere. Simultaneously, at the bottom of hopper 01, a carrier gas flows along a spiral powder guide structure to transport powder to the powder delivery tube, achieving efficient powder delivery for sticky, easily agglomerated powder. This device effectively disperses easily agglomerated sticky powder, preventing powder agglomeration from clogging the powder delivery tube, thereby improving powder delivery efficiency and powder utilization.
[0032] As an optional embodiment, a flow meter 03, a pressure regulating valve 04 and a pressure relief valve 05 are connected to the air intake pipeline.
[0033] As an optional embodiment, a sealing ring 07 is provided between the top cover 06 and the hopper 01 to prevent air leakage.
[0034] As an optional embodiment, a pressure gauge 09 for detecting the internal pressure is installed on the outer wall of the hopper 01.
[0035] As an optional embodiment, a micro switch 08 is installed on the outer wall of the hopper 01.
[0036] As an optional embodiment, a communication connector 13 is provided at the bottom of the base 14 , and the communication connector 13 is installed on the nitrogen inlet 12 .
[0037] As an optional embodiment, the base assembly 11 and the powder guide structure are both made of transparent polymer materials.
[0038] For example, the advantage of using a transparent polymer material as the base assembly 11 and the powder guide structure is that the state of the internal powder can be observed.
