Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a material selection device, specifically a multi-way valve automatic material selection device. Background Technology

[0002] During material processing, various materials need to be transported to a designated cylinder (or tank) through a material selection device (or suction device) before processing can begin. However, current material selection devices typically only have one universal material conveying pipe, causing all materials to be sent to the cylinder (or tank) through this pipe. Some materials, due to their properties or shapes, cannot be conveyed through the universal material conveying pipe, resulting in a limited applicability of existing material selection devices. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a multi-way valve automatic material selection device. By setting up multiple feed pipes and material selection mechanisms corresponding to each feed pipe, it can transport a variety of different materials, which is suitable for different formulas in actual production, thus improving the applicability of the device.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multi-way valve automatic material selection device, including a material selection housing, multiple feed pipes fixed on the lower end face of the material selection housing, and an expansion cover fixedly connected to the material selection housing. The opening of the expansion cover gradually narrows at the end away from the material selection housing, and the expansion cover adopts a conical design. Multiple sets of material selection mechanisms are also provided on the material selection housing, and the multiple sets of material selection mechanisms are respectively arranged above the multiple feed pipes. The material selection mechanism includes a cylinder and a valve arranged on one side of the cylinder. The valve is coupled to the cylinder. A silicone block is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder. Multiple silicone blocks are provided, and the multiple silicone blocks correspond to the openings of the multiple feed pipes respectively, so that the multiple silicone blocks can seal the openings of the multiple feed pipes respectively.

[0005] Preferably, the housing is a hollow cavity structure.

[0006] Preferably, mounting plates are fixed at both ends of the material selection shell, both mounting plates are L-shaped and symmetrical to the material selection shell; mounting holes are provided on both mounting plates, and by installing bolts or other structures in the mounting holes and inserting the bolts into the external attachment structure, the material selection shell can be fixed to the external attachment structure.

[0007] Preferably, multiple feed pipes are distributed at equal intervals along the horizontal direction; different materials can be fed in through the multiple feed pipes.

[0008] Preferably, a discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the end of the expansion cover away from the material selection housing.

[0009] Preferably, the material selection mechanism further includes a positioning plate, which is fixed to the upper end face of the material selection housing, and the cylinder and valve are both fixed to the positioning plate, so that the structure of the cylinder and valve remains stable.

[0010] Preferably, multiple silicone blocks are disposed within the cavity of the material selection housing.

[0011] Preferably, a transparent acrylic plate is fixed on the side of the material selection shell away from the expansion cover. The fixing method between the material selection shell and the transparent acrylic plate is the prior art. Personnel can view the material conveying situation in the cavity of the material selection shell in real time through the transparent acrylic plate. The transparent acrylic plate can be removed from the material selection shell to facilitate maintenance of the cavity of the material selection shell.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model is adapted to a material conveying system.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 4This utility model provides an embodiment of an automatic material selection device for a multi-way valve, comprising a material selection housing 1, which is a hollow cavity structure. Mounting plates 2 are fixed at both ends of the material selection housing 1. Both mounting plates 2 are L-shaped and symmetrical about the material selection housing 1. Mounting holes are provided on both mounting plates 2. By installing bolts or other structures into the mounting holes and inserting the bolts into an external attachment structure, the material selection housing 1 can be fixed to the external attachment structure. The lower end face of the material selection housing 1 is fixed... The system has multiple feed pipes 3, which are evenly spaced horizontally. Different materials can be fed through these feed pipes. An expansion cover 4 is fixedly connected to the material selection housing 1. The opening of the expansion cover 4 gradually narrows at the end away from the material selection housing 1, and the expansion cover 4 has a conical design. A discharge pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the end of the expansion cover 4 away from the material selection housing 1. Multiple sets of material selection mechanisms 6 are also provided on the material selection housing 1, each set positioned directly above the multiple feed pipes 3. Each material selection mechanism 6 includes a cylinder 6. 2. A valve 63 is disposed on one side of the cylinder 62, and the valve 63 is coupled to the cylinder 62. The material selection mechanism 6 also includes a positioning plate 61, which is fixed to the upper end face of the material selection housing 1. Both the cylinder 62 and the valve 63 are fixed on the positioning plate 61. In this embodiment, the valve 63 is a solenoid valve, which keeps the structure of the cylinder 62 and the valve 63 stable. A silicone block 64 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 62. Multiple silicone blocks 64 are provided, and the multiple silicone blocks 64 correspond to the openings of multiple feed pipes 3 respectively. Multiple silicone blocks 64 can seal the openings of multiple feed pipes 3 respectively. Multiple silicone blocks 64 are all set in the cavity of the material selection housing 1. A transparent acrylic plate 7 is fixed on the side of the material selection housing 1 away from the expansion cover 4. The fixing method of the material selection housing 1 and the transparent acrylic plate 7 is the existing technology. Personnel can view the material conveying status in the cavity of the material selection housing 1 in real time through the transparent acrylic plate 7. The transparent acrylic plate 7 can be removed from the material selection housing 1 to facilitate maintenance of the cavity of the material selection housing 1.

[0022] In operation, this invention allows various materials to be fed into the material selection housing 1 from multiple feed pipes 3. When material needs to be fed from a particular feed pipe 3, the cylinder 62 is driven by the valve 63 above that feed pipe 3, causing the silicone block 64 to rise and open the opening of the feed pipe 3. The material can then be fed into the material selection housing 1 through an external suction device (the suction device is prior art; see patent application number CN202420287185.8 – Automatic Suction Device). The material then enters the expansion cover 4 and is discharged from the discharge pipe 5. Subsequently, the silicone block 64 above the feed pipe 3 can be lowered to close the opening of the feed pipe 3, and other feed pipes 3 can be used to transport other materials.

[0023] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
