Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air cannon technology, specifically to a high-efficiency and energy-saving air cannon device. Background Technology
[0002] An air cannon, also known as an air flow aid, arch breaker, or blockage clearer, is a device that uses a sudden burst of compressed gas at speeds exceeding Mach 1 to directly penetrate the blockage area of stored bulk materials. This sudden release of an expansion shock wave overcomes the static friction of the material, allowing the material inside the container to resume flow.

[0026] A high-efficiency and energy-saving air cannon device includes an air cannon body 1. An air outlet pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the front of the air cannon body 1. Buffer components 3 are arranged on the left and right sides of the bottom of the air cannon body 1. A pressure relief component 4 is arranged in the middle of the top of the air cannon body 1. The buffer components 3 include buffer bases 301 arranged on the left and right sides below the air cannon body 1. Arc-shaped brackets 302 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the bottom of the air cannon body 1. Support frames 303 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the two arc-shaped brackets 302. The bottom ends of the two support frames 303 extend into the inner part of the two buffer bases 301 respectively. The two support frames 303 each have a crossbar 304 running through their middle sections. The front and rear ends of the two crossbars 304 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the front and rear sides of the two buffer bases 301, respectively. Buffer springs 305 are fitted on the outside of the two crossbars 304. Damperes 306 are fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the back of the two buffer bases 301. The other ends of the two dampers 306 are fixedly connected to the surfaces of the two support frames 303, respectively. A first magnet block 307 is fixedly connected to the front of the two support frames 303, and a second magnet block 308 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the front of the two buffer bases 301.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, two buffer springs 305 are disposed behind the support frame 303. The front ends of the two buffer springs 305 are respectively used for fixed connection to the surface of the two support frames 303, and the rear ends of the two buffer springs 305 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner wall of the two buffer bases 301. The second magnet block 308 and the first magnet block 307 are located at the same horizontal height, and the sides of the second magnet block 308 and the first magnet block 307 that are close to each other are the same pole.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the pressure relief assembly 4 includes a pipe 401 disposed on the top of the air cannon body 1. The bottom end of the pipe 401 is fixedly connected to the top of the air cannon body 1. A control box 402 is fixedly connected to the outer right wall of the pipe 401. A solenoid valve 403 is fixedly connected to the top inside the pipe 401. A fixing rod 404 is disposed below the solenoid valve 403. Both ends of the fixing rod 404 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the two sides of the pipe 401. Upper contacts 405 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the bottom of the fixing rod 404. A guide rod 406 is fixedly connected in the middle. A movable plate 408 is slidably connected to the surface of the guide rod 406. A telescopic spring 407 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 406. The top of the telescopic spring 407 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed rod 404. The bottom of the telescopic spring 407 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable plate 408. Lower contacts 409 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the movable plate 408. A fixing ring 410 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the pipe 401. The bottom of the movable plate 408 is in contact with the top of the fixing ring 410.
[0029] The working process of this utility model is as follows: When the pressure inside the air cannon body 1 reaches a certain value, the air compression moving plate 408 slides upward to compress the telescopic spring 407, creating a space between the fixed ring 410 and the moving plate 408. The lower contact 409 and the upper contact 405 come into contact with each other to form a circuit. The control box 402 controls the solenoid valve 403 to open and release the internal pressure. When the air cannon body 1 is firing exhaust gas, the recoil force generated causes the air cannon body 1 to move backward. The support frame 303 slides on the surface of the crossbar 304 to compress the buffer spring 305 and the damper 306, thus buffering the impact force. When the support frame 303 rebounds, the ends of the first magnet block 307 and the second magnet block 308 that are close to each other are of the same pole, which can prevent the support frame 303 from rebounding too quickly and hitting the inner wall of the buffer base 301.
[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
