Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of oilfield additive production technology, and in particular to a basin-type continuous photopolymerization system. Background Technology

[0002] Photopolymerization is a modern technology for preparing polymer materials. It is a process in which liquid monomers and / or oligomers cross-link and polymerize to form solid products under the irradiation of light (visible light or ultraviolet light) or high-energy rays. It has the advantages of high production efficiency, low energy consumption, solvent-free, environmentally friendly, controllable time and space, and room temperature operation, and is widely used in various industrial fields.

[0003] In existing technologies, photopolymerization systems are often used in oilfield production to treat post-hydrolyzed polymers for use in oilfield production. This photopolymerization process solidifies the polymers, facilitating their subsequent granulation. The photopolymerization system primarily consists of a polymerization chamber and a polymerization bed. The polymerization chamber is fixedly mounted above the polymerization bed's frame, and the polymerization irradiation mechanism within the chamber is positioned above the bed. A conveyor belt is installed on the polymerization bed. In actual production, operators place raw material bags into a basin-type trough and fill the bags with raw materials using a filling mechanism. The conveyor belt then transports the basin-type trough to the photopolymerization chamber for photopolymerization. After polymerization, operators start the conveyor belt to remove the material from the polymerization chamber. The polymerized material is then manually unloaded from the basin-type trough and transferred to a granulator to granulate the solidified material for packaging.

[0004] However, manually unloading the material is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient, and there is room for improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to save manpower required for photopolymerization systems and improve the production efficiency of photopolymerization systems, this application provides a pot-type continuous photopolymerization system.

[0006] The basin-type continuous photopolymerization system provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A continuous photopolymerization system in a basin shape includes a polymerization bed, on which a sprocket and chain drive mechanism is mounted. Several basin-shaped material troughs are detachably mounted on the sprocket and chain drive mechanism. A downwardly inclined discharge channel is fixedly mounted on the polymerization bed, with the inlet end of the discharge channel located below the outlet end of the sprocket and chain drive mechanism; and:

[0008] The control module is fixedly installed on the polymerization bed, near the feed end of the sprocket and chain drive mechanism, and is used to input the first control signal or the second control signal;

[0009] Two servo motors are fixedly mounted on the frame of the polymerization bed. The drive end is connected to the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism, and the signal input end is connected to the signal output end of the control module. They are used to receive the first control signal and drive the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism to transmit a first set distance, and to receive the second control signal and drive the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism to transmit a second set distance.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, during the actual production and processing, operators can pre-place raw material bags in the basin-type material trough and fill the raw material bags with the raw material. Once the raw material is filled, the operator can input a first control signal through the control module. Two servo motors drive the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism to travel a first set distance, causing the filled basin-type material trough to move into the polymerization chamber. This allows the next empty basin-type material trough to be moved to the filling mechanism for filling. When the number of basin-type material troughs containing raw material entering the polymerization chamber reaches the maximum capacity of the polymerization chamber, the operator... The polymerization irradiation mechanism inside the controllable polymerization chamber irradiates and polymerizes the raw materials. After polymerization is complete, the operator inputs a second control signal through the control panel. The servo motor drives the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism to travel a second set distance, causing the basin-shaped material trough inside the polymerization chamber to be continuously fed out. During the feeding process, the opening of the basin-shaped material trough is tilted and facing downwards. The raw materials inside the basin-shaped material trough can be poured out by gravity and discharged through the unloading channel, achieving the technical effect of automatic unloading, saving the manpower required for the photopolymerization system and improving the production efficiency of the photopolymerization system.

[0011] Preferably, the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism includes two driving sprockets, two driven sprockets, and two sets of transmission chains. The two sets of transmission chains are respectively sleeved on the driving sprockets and the driven sprockets, and the two sets of transmission chains are arranged in parallel. The drive ends are respectively connected to the two driving sprockets through couplings.

[0012] Several mounting brackets are fixedly installed between the two sets of transmission chains, and several basin-shaped material troughs are fixedly installed in several of the mounting brackets.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the servo motor can drive the mounting bracket installed on the transmission chain through the active sprocket, the driven sprocket and the transmission chain, and can synchronously drive the raw materials in the basin-type material trough fixed on the mounting bracket to move.

[0014] Preferably, a discharge conveyor belt is installed on the polymerization bed, and the discharge end of the unloading channel is positioned above the feed end of the discharge conveyor belt;

[0015] The polymerization bed is equipped with a discharge channel and a discharge platform. The discharge channel is located between the discharge platform and the discharge end of the discharge conveyor belt, and the discharge channel is inclined downward along the direction close to the discharge platform.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, and through the combination and use of unloading channels, discharge conveyor belts, discharge channels and discharge platforms, the technical effect of automatically delivering the polymerized raw materials can be achieved, saving the raw material transfer process.

[0017] Preferably, both the unloading channel and the discharge channel include two side plates, both side plates are fixedly installed on the bed, and several rollers are rotatably installed between the two side plates.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the polymerized raw material flows through the unloading channel or the discharge channel, since the unloading channel and the discharge channel are set at an angle downwards and both the unloading channel and the discharge channel are equipped with multiple rollers, the polymerized raw material can be transferred and transitioned between the discharge conveyor belt and the discharge platform.

[0019] Preferably, the control module includes:

[0020] The control panel is fixedly installed on the polymerization bed and is used to input the first control signal and the second control signal;

[0021] The distance control unit has its signal output terminal connected to the signal input terminals of the two servo motors. It is used to receive a first stop signal when the transmission distance of the sprocket and chain drive mechanism reaches a first set distance and a second stop signal when the transmission distance of the sprocket and chain drive mechanism reaches a second set distance.

[0022] The signal input terminals of the two servo motors are connected to the signal output terminals of the control panel and the distance control unit. The two servo motors receive the first control signal or the second control signal and start, and receive the first stop signal or the second stop signal and stop running.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, and through the coordinated use of the control panel, distance control unit, and two servo motors, the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism can be controlled to drive at a first or second set distance. During actual material preparation, after the operator fills a basin-type trough with raw material, they can input a first control signal through the control panel. The sprocket and chain transmission mechanism then sends the filled basin-type trough into the polymerization chamber and transports the next empty basin-type trough to the side of the filling mechanism. When all the basin-type troughs in the polymerization chamber are filled with raw material to be polymerized, and the polymerization process is complete, the operator can input a second control signal through the control panel, which will then send all the basin-type troughs out of the polymerization chamber via the chain and sprocket structure.

[0024] Preferably, the distance control unit includes:

[0025] The sensing protrusion is fixedly installed on the outer side of the wheel surface of any of the driven sprockets;

[0026] An infrared ranging sensor is fixedly installed on the polymer bed to detect the distance between itself and the obstructing surface in front and to output a sensing distance signal.

[0027] The comparator chip has its signal input terminal connected to the signal output terminal of the infrared ranging sensor, and is used to receive the sensing distance signal and output a high-level signal when the sensing distance is less than a set distance value.

[0028] The microcontroller has its signal input terminal connected to the comparator chip and the signal output terminal of the control panel. It is used to receive the first control signal and output the first stop signal when the number of occurrences of the high-level signal reaches a first set number, and to receive the second control signal and output the second stop signal when the number of occurrences of the high-level signal reaches a second set number.

[0029] The signal input terminals of the two servo motors are connected to the signal output terminals of the microcontroller. The two servo motors receive the first stop signal or the second stop signal and stop driving.

[0030] By adopting the above technical solution, and by using the sensing bump and the infrared ranging sensor together, when the sprocket rotates once and the sensing bump passes the infrared ranging sensor, the sensing distance measured by the infrared ranging sensor is less than the set value. The comparator chip outputs a high-level signal. Since the transmission distance of the chain corresponding to one rotation of the driven sprocket is a fixed value, when used with a microcontroller, the technical effect of detecting the number of rotations of the driven sprocket and thus measuring the chain transmission distance can be achieved.

[0031] In summary, the pot-type continuous photopolymerization system of this application has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0032] 1. During actual production and processing, operators can pre-place raw material bags in the basin-type material trough and fill the bags with raw materials. Once the raw materials are filled, the operator can input a first control signal through the control module. Two servo motors drive the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism to travel a first set distance, causing the filled basin-type material trough to move to the polymerization chamber. This allows the next empty basin-type material trough to be moved to the filling mechanism for filling. When the number of basin-type material troughs containing raw materials entering the polymerization chamber reaches the maximum capacity of the polymerization chamber, the operator can control the polymerization... The polymerization irradiation mechanism in the polymerization chamber irradiates and polymerizes the raw materials. After the raw materials have polymerized, the operator inputs a second control signal through the control panel. The servo motor drives the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism to transmit a second set distance, so that the basin-shaped material tank in the polymerization chamber is continuously fed out of the polymerization chamber. During the feeding process of the basin-shaped material tank, the opening of the basin-shaped material tank is tilted and facing downward. The raw materials in the basin-shaped material tank can be poured out of the basin-shaped material tank by gravity and sent out through the unloading channel. This can achieve the technical effect of automatic unloading, save the manpower required for the photopolymerization system, and improve the production efficiency of the photopolymerization system.

[0033] 2. By using the sensing bump and infrared ranging sensor together, when the sprocket rotates one revolution and the sensing bump passes the infrared ranging sensor, the sensing distance measured by the infrared ranging sensor is less than the set value. The comparator chip outputs a high-level signal. Since the transmission distance of the chain corresponding to one revolution of the driven sprocket is a fixed value, when used with a microcontroller, it is possible to detect the number of revolutions of the driven sprocket and thus measure the transmission distance of the chain.

[0039] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0040] Example

[0041] This application discloses a basin-type continuous photopolymerization system. (Refer to...) Figures 1-4 It includes a polymerization bed 1, a sprocket and chain drive mechanism 2 installed on the polymerization bed 1, several basin-type material troughs 3 detachably installed on the sprocket and chain drive mechanism 2, and a downwardly inclined unloading channel 4 fixedly installed on the polymerization bed 1, with the inlet end of the unloading channel 4 located below the outlet end of the sprocket and chain drive mechanism 2.

[0042] In addition: a control module, fixedly installed on the polymerization bed 1, located near the feed end of the sprocket and chain drive mechanism 2, used to input a first control signal or a second control signal; two servo motors, fixedly installed on the frame of the polymerization bed 1, with their drive ends connected to the sprocket and chain drive mechanism 2 and their signal input ends connected to the signal output end of the control module, used to receive the first control signal and drive the sprocket and chain drive mechanism 2 to travel a first set distance, and to receive the second control signal and drive the sprocket and chain drive mechanism 2 to travel a second set distance.

[0043] During actual production and processing, operators can pre-place raw material bags in the basin-type material trough 3 and fill the raw materials into the bags. Once filling is complete, the operator can input a first control signal to the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism 2 via the control module. Two servo motors drive the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism 2 to travel a first set distance, causing the filled basin-type material trough 3 to move into the polymerization chamber. This allows the next empty basin-type material trough 3 to be moved to the filling mechanism for filling. When the number of basin-type material troughs 3 containing raw materials entering the polymerization chamber reaches the maximum capacity of the chamber, the operator can... The polymerization irradiation mechanism in the polymerization chamber controls the polymerization treatment of the raw materials. After the raw materials have polymerized, the operator inputs a second control signal through the control panel. The servo motor drives the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism 2 to transmit a second set distance, so that the basin-type material tank 3 in the polymerization chamber is continuously fed out from the polymerization chamber. During the feeding process of the basin-type material tank 3, the opening of the basin-type material tank 3 is tilted and facing downward. The raw materials in the basin-type material tank 3 can be poured out from the basin-type material tank 3 by gravity and sent out through the unloading channel 4. This can achieve the technical effect of automatic unloading, save the manpower required for the photopolymerization system, and improve the production efficiency of the photopolymerization system.

[0044] Reference Figure 1The sprocket and chain drive mechanism 2 includes two driving sprockets 21, two driven sprockets 22, and two sets of drive chains 23. The two sets of drive chains 23 are respectively sleeved on the driving sprockets 21 and driven sprockets 22, and the two sets of drive chains 23 are arranged in parallel. The drive ends are respectively connected to the two driving sprockets 21 through couplings. Several mounting brackets 8 are fixedly installed between the two sets of drive chains 23, and several basin-shaped material troughs 3 are fixedly installed in the several mounting brackets 8.

[0045] The servo motor can drive the mounting bracket 8 mounted on the transmission chain 23 through the active sprocket 21, the driven sprocket 22 and the transmission chain 23, and can synchronously drive the raw material in the basin-shaped material trough 3 fixedly mounted on the mounting bracket 8 to move.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The polymerization bed 1 is equipped with a discharge conveyor belt 5, and the discharge end of the discharge channel 4 is set above the feed end of the discharge conveyor belt 5. The polymerization bed 1 is equipped with a discharge channel 6 and a discharge platform 7. The discharge channel 6 is located between the discharge platform 7 and the discharge end of the discharge conveyor belt 5, and the discharge channel 6 is set inclined downward along the direction close to the discharge platform 7.

[0047] By combining and using the unloading channel 4, the discharge conveyor belt 5, the discharge channel 6, and the discharge platform 7, the technology can automatically deliver the polymerized raw materials, saving on the raw material transfer process.

[0048] In this embodiment, both the unloading channel 4 and the discharge channel 6 include two side plates 41, both side plates 41 are fixedly installed on the bed, and several rollers 42 are rotatably installed between the two side plates 41.

[0049] When the polymerized raw material flows through the unloading channel 4 or the discharge channel 6, since the unloading channel 4 and the discharge channel 6 are inclined downwards and both the unloading channel 4 and the discharge channel 6 are equipped with multiple rollers 42, the polymerized raw material can be transferred and transitioned between the discharge conveyor belt 5 and the discharge platform 7.

[0050] In this embodiment, the control module includes: a control panel, fixedly installed on the polymerization bed 1, for inputting a first control signal and a second control signal; a distance control unit, whose signal output terminal is connected to the signal input terminals of two servo motors, for receiving a first stop signal when the transmission distance of the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism 2 reaches a first set distance, and outputting a second stop signal when the transmission distance of the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism 2 reaches a second set distance; the signal input terminals of the two servo motors are connected to the signal output terminals of the control panel and the distance control unit, and the two servo motors receive the first control signal or the second control signal and start, and receive the first stop signal or the second stop signal and stop running.

[0051] By coordinating and using the control panel, distance control unit, and two servo motors, the sprocket and chain drive mechanism 2 can be controlled to drive at a first or second preset distance. During actual material preparation, after the operator fills a basin-type trough 3 with raw material, they can input a first control signal through the control panel. The sprocket and chain drive mechanism 2 then sends the filled basin-type trough 3 into the polymerization chamber and transports the next empty basin-type trough 3 to the side of the filling mechanism. When all the basin-type troughs 3 in the polymerization chamber are filled with raw material to be polymerized and the polymerization process is complete, the operator can input a second control signal through the control panel to send all the basin-type troughs 3 out of the polymerization chamber via the chain and sprocket structure.

[0052] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The distance control unit includes: a sensing bump 221, fixedly installed on the outer side of the wheel surface of any driven sprocket 22; an infrared distance sensor 9, fixedly installed on the polymerization bed 1, used to detect the distance between itself and the obstructing surface in front and output a sensing distance signal; a comparator chip, whose signal input terminal is connected to the signal output terminal of the infrared distance sensor 9, used to receive the sensing distance signal and output a high-level signal when the sensing distance is less than a set distance value; a microcontroller, whose signal input terminal is connected to the signal output terminal of the comparator chip and the control panel, used to receive a first control signal and output a first stop signal when the number of high-level signal occurrences reaches a first set number, and to receive a second control signal and output a second stop signal when the number of high-level signal occurrences reaches a second set number; and two servo motors whose signal input terminals are connected to the signal output terminal of the microcontroller, and the two servo motors receive the first stop signal or the second stop signal and stop driving.

[0053] By using the sensing bump 221 in conjunction with the infrared ranging sensor 9, when the sprocket rotates once and the sensing bump 221 passes the infrared ranging sensor 9, the sensing distance measured by the infrared ranging sensor 9 is less than the set value. The comparator chip outputs a high-level signal. Since the transmission distance of the chain corresponding to one rotation of the driven sprocket 22 is a fixed value, when used with a microcontroller, the technical effect of detecting the number of rotations of the driven sprocket 22 and thus measuring the chain transmission distance can be achieved.

[0054] The implementation principle of a continuous photopolymerization system in a basin according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: During the actual production process, the operator can pre-place the raw material bag in the basin-type material tank 3 and fill the raw material bag with the raw material. When the raw material is filled, the operator can input a first control signal through the control module. Two servo motors drive the sprocket chain transmission mechanism 2 to transmit a first set distance, so that the basin-type material tank 3 filled with raw material moves to the polymerization chamber, so that the next empty basin-type material tank 3 is transmitted to the filling mechanism to prepare for filling; when the number of basin-type material tanks 3 carrying raw material entering the polymerization chamber reaches the maximum capacity of the polymerization chamber... During operation, the operator can control the polymerization irradiation mechanism in the polymerization chamber to irradiate and polymerize the raw materials. After the raw materials have polymerized, the operator inputs a second control signal through the control panel, and the servo motor drives the sprocket and chain transmission mechanism 2 to transmit a second set distance, so that the basin-type material tank 3 in the polymerization chamber is continuously fed out from the polymerization chamber. During the feeding process of the basin-type material tank 3, the opening of the basin-type material tank 3 is tilted and facing downwards. The raw materials in the basin-type material tank 3 can be poured out from the basin-type material tank 3 by gravity and sent out through the unloading channel 4, which can realize the technical effect of automatic unloading, save the manpower required for the photopolymerization system, and improve the production efficiency of the photopolymerization system.

[0055] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
