Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of media filling technology, and in particular to a filling device and system thereof. Background Technology

[0002] When filling materials into tank trucks, a certain amount of additive needs to be measured with a measuring cup first, and then the additive is mixed into the material before the mixture is filled into the tank truck. However, manually measuring the additive inevitably introduces some error, and it is impossible to control the volume of additive mixed into the material per unit time, resulting in significant deviations in the parameters detected when sampling at different points. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application is made in view of the above-mentioned problems. This application provides a filling apparatus and system thereof.

[0004] According to one aspect of this application, a filling apparatus is provided, comprising:

[0005] The storage unit and the media conveying assembly include a first switch, a metering unit, and multiple media conveying pipes. The outlet of the storage unit is connected to the inlet of the media conveying pipes via the first switch, and the metering unit is located on the media conveying pipes.

[0006] Compared with existing technologies, the filling apparatus provided in this application includes a storage section and a media conveying assembly. The media conveying assembly includes a first switch, a metering section, and multiple media transmission pipes. The outlet of the storage section is connected to the inlet of the media transmission pipes via the first switch, and the metering section is located on the media transmission pipes. Therefore, when the media enters the inlet of the media transmission pipes from the outlet of the storage section along the first switch, the metering section on the media transmission pipes can precisely control the filling volume of the media. Then, the appropriate volume of media is uniformly and stably conveyed to the filling location through the outlet of the media transmission pipes. This reduces the volume error in measuring the additive and controls the volume of media mixed into the filling location per unit time, effectively ensuring the accuracy and stability of the media addition. During the production process, regardless of where sampling is performed, the occurrence of large deviations in detection parameters at different sampling points can be greatly reduced, ensuring a high degree of consistency in product quality.

[0007] According to another aspect of this application, a filling system is provided, including a controller and the filling device described above; the controller is electrically connected to the filling device.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the filling system provided in this application are the same as those of the filling device described above, and will not be repeated here.

Detailed Implementation

[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application more apparent, exemplary embodiments according to this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments of this application. It should be understood that this application is not limited to the exemplary embodiments described herein.

[0016] In the transportation and storage of many materials, such as petrochemical products, the addition of additives can alter the physical and chemical properties of the products. Taking fuel oil as an example, adding antiknock agents can improve its anti-knock performance. Adding antiknock agents when filling fuel tankers ensures smoother combustion in the engine, reducing knocking and thus improving engine efficiency and lifespan. Similarly, adding antioxidants to edible oils can prevent oxidation and rancidity, preserving the flavor and nutritional components of the oil and ensuring consumer safety. However, the process of mixing additives into these materials often involves manual measurement, which inevitably introduces errors and makes it impossible to control the volume of additives mixed into the material per unit time. This results in significant deviations in the parameters measured at different sampling points.

[0017] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a filling device that reduces the volume error of the measured medium and controls the volume of the medium mixed into the filling area per unit time, effectively ensuring the accuracy and stability of the medium addition amount. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the filling apparatus according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 1 As shown, the filling device 100 includes a storage section 101 and a media conveying assembly 102; the media conveying assembly 102 includes a first switch 1021, a metering section 1022 and a plurality of media transmission pipes 1023. The outlet of the storage section 101 is connected to the inlet of the media transmission pipe 1023 through the first switch 1021, and the metering section 1022 is provided on the media transmission pipe 1023.

[0018] In practice, the first switch 1021 is activated, allowing the medium to enter the inlet of the medium transmission pipeline 1023 from the outlet of the storage section 101. At this time, the metering section 1022 can be adjusted according to production needs. Under the action of the metering section 1022, the filling volume of the medium can be precisely controlled, reducing volume errors in measuring the additives. Finally, the appropriate volume of medium can be uniformly and stably delivered to the filling location through the outlet of the medium transmission pipeline 1023, thereby controlling the volume of medium mixed into the filling location per unit time, effectively ensuring the accuracy and stability of the medium addition. During the production process, regardless of where sampling is taken, the occurrence of large deviations in detection parameters at different sampling points can be greatly reduced, ensuring a high degree of consistency in product quality.

[0019] In one alternative approach, such as Figure 1 As shown, the metering unit 1022 in this embodiment includes a metering mechanism 10221 and an adjusting member 10222. The adjusting member 10222 is disposed on the metering mechanism 10221 and is used to adjust the volume of the medium conveyed by the metering mechanism 10221 per unit time. The adjusting member 10222 can be a stroke adjuster (e.g., an adjusting handwheel) or other components capable of adjusting the volume of the medium conveyed by the metering mechanism 10221 per unit time, and can be adjusted according to actual conditions, without limitation here.

[0020] For example, the metering mechanism in this embodiment includes a drive end, a transmission end, and a hydraulic end. The drive end is connected to the hydraulic end via the transmission end, and an adjusting component is disposed on the transmission end. The drive end can be a motor and is connected to the transmission end via a coupling or other components, providing power to the hydraulic end. The hydraulic end includes a cylinder and a plunger disposed within the cylinder. The transmission end extends into the cylinder and is connected to the end of the plunger. The cylinder is connected to a medium transmission pipeline. This transmission end can convert the high-speed rotational motion of the drive end into a reciprocating motion suitable for the plunger. It should be understood that the transmission end may include a crankshaft adjusting mechanism and a slant slide shaft adjusting mechanism, etc., which can be adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited here.

[0021] In practice, after the medium enters the inlet of the medium transmission pipeline from the outlet of the storage section along the first switch, the drive end can be used to move the plunger away from the medium transmission pipeline, gradually increasing the volume inside the cylinder and creating a certain degree of vacuum. Under the action of external atmospheric pressure and the pressure of the medium, the liquid enters the cylinder from the inlet. Then, the drive end moves the plunger closer to the medium transmission pipeline, gradually decreasing the volume inside the cylinder and compressing the medium. At this point, the inlet closes and the outlet opens, and the medium is discharged from the outlet into the medium transmission pipeline under the push of the plunger. During this process, the pump's output flow rate can be changed by adjusting the plunger's stroke length. Specifically, the operator can adjust the stroke adjuster set on the drive end to change the plunger's stroke, thereby adjusting the liquid flow rate. This reduces the volume error of the additive and controls the volume of medium mixed into the filling area per unit time, effectively ensuring the accuracy and stability of the medium addition. During the production process, regardless of where the sample is taken, the occurrence of large deviations in the detection parameters at different sampling points can be greatly reduced, ensuring a high degree of consistency in product quality.

[0022] In one alternative approach, such as Figure 1As shown, the media conveying assembly 102 in this embodiment further includes a shock-absorbing part 1024 and a second switch 1025 disposed on the media transmission pipeline 1023. The outlet of the metering part 1022 is connected to the inlet of the second switch 1025 through the shock-absorbing part 1024. The shock-absorbing part 1024 can be a flexible pipe joint made of elastic materials such as rubber or metal bellows, or it can be a pulsation damper, which can be adjusted according to the actual situation and is not limited here. When the medium flows into the shock-absorbing part 1024 along the outlet of the metering part 1022, the vibration and pressure pulsation of the media transmission pipeline 1023 can be reduced. Therefore, when the medium enters the inlet of the second switch 1025 along the outlet of the shock-absorbing part 1024, the interference of pipeline vibration and pressure pulsation on the shock-absorbing part 1024 can be minimized, ensuring that the second switch 1025 can more effectively regulate the pressure in the media transmission pipeline 1023, thereby improving the flow stability of the filling device 100. For example, when the opening degree of the second switch 1025 increases, the pressure in the medium transmission pipeline 1023 decreases; when the opening degree of the second switch 1025 decreases, the pressure in the medium transmission pipeline 1023 increases.

[0023] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the media conveying assembly 102 in this embodiment further includes a third switch 1026 disposed on the media transmission pipeline 1023. The outlet of the first switch 1021 is connected to the inlet of the third switch 1026 and the inlet of the shock-absorbing part 1024 via the metering part 1022. It can be seen that the third switch 1026 in this embodiment is connected in parallel with the second switch 1025. During normal operation of the filling device 100, the third switch 1026 is in the off state. When a component in the filling device 100 malfunctions, the first switch 1021 and the second switch 1025 can be turned off, and the third switch 1026 can be turned on, thus releasing the pressure in the pipeline and reducing risk.

[0024] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the media conveying assembly 102 in this embodiment further includes a pressure sensor 1027 disposed on the media transmission pipeline 1023. The pressure sensor 1027 is located between the outlet of the shock-absorbing part 1024 and the inlet of the second switch 1025. Therefore, when the pressure sensor 1027 detects that the pressure value in the media transmission pipeline 1023 is greater than a preset range, the opening degree of the second switch 1025 can be increased to reduce the pressure value to the preset range. When the pressure sensor 1027 detects that the pressure value in the media transmission pipeline 1023 is less than the preset range, the opening degree of the second switch 1025 can be decreased to increase the pressure value to the preset range.

[0025] For example, the medium transmission pipeline in this application embodiment is a stainless steel medium transmission pipeline, which has good resistance to chemical corrosion, atmospheric corrosion and wear, which is beneficial to improving the service life of the filling device.

[0026] This application also provides a filling system that has the advantages of the above-described filling device. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a filling system according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 2 As shown, the filling system includes a controller 200 and the aforementioned filling device 100; the controller 200 is electrically connected to the filling device 100.

[0027] In practical applications, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to mix the medium and the material, the controller 200 first controls the first switch 1021 to be in the conducting state, allowing the medium to enter the inlet of the medium transmission pipeline 1023 along the outlet of the storage section 101. Next, the medium enters the inlet of the metering section 1022 from the inlet of the medium transmission pipeline 1023. The controller 200 controls the drive end of the metering mechanism 10221 and the adjusting member 10222 to uniformly and stably deliver a suitable volume of medium from the outlet of the metering section 1022 to the medium transmission pipeline 1023. At this time, the shock-absorbing section 1024 can reduce the vibration generated in the medium transmission pipeline 1023 during the medium transmission process. When the pressure sensor 1027 detects that the pressure value in the medium transmission pipeline 1023 is greater than a preset range, the controller 200, upon receiving this signal, controls the opening of the second switch 1025 to increase, thereby reducing the pressure value to the preset range. When pressure sensor 1027 detects that the pressure value in the medium transmission pipeline 1023 is less than a preset range, controller 200, upon receiving this signal, controls the opening of the second switch 1025 to decrease, thereby increasing the pressure value to the preset range. Finally, the medium with the appropriate pressure and volume can be stably delivered to the filling location. In case of an emergency, controller 200 can control the first switch 1021 and the second switch 1025 to turn off, and control the third switch 1026 to turn on, to release pressure.
