Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building materials equipment, specifically to an automated sampling device. Background Technology
[0002] In the premixing process of mortar, to improve the final quality of the product in the mixer, samples of the premixed raw materials need to be randomly inspected at specified intervals. The equipment parameters can then be adjusted based on the quality of the inspection results. Traditional processes lack a premixing step, so the sampling frequency requirement is not high; workers simply take samples from the production line at regular intervals for laboratory testing. However, due to the long sampling intervals, sampling tools are often not cleaned promptly, leading to residual material adhering to them after sampling. This results in mixed materials in the sampling spoon, causing sample distortion. Therefore, to solve these problems and achieve automated closed-loop adjustment, an automated sampling device is needed. Utility Model Content

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown:
[0023] An automated sampling device includes a support frame 1, a three-axis adjustment mechanism 11, a cleaning component, a drying component, a sampling component, a sampling tray 2, and a sampling conveyor 3. The support frame 1 and the sampling conveyor 3 are arranged adjacent to each other. The sampling conveyor 3 is a belt conveyor.
[0024] The triaxial adjustment mechanism 11 is installed on the top of the support frame 1, and the sampling component is connected to the adjustment part of the triaxial adjustment mechanism 11. The triaxial adjustment mechanism 11 is used to control the position of the sampling component.
[0025] Specifically, the three-axis adjustment mechanism 11 includes an X-axis sliding assembly, a Y-axis sliding assembly, and a Z-axis sliding assembly. With reference to the sampling conveyor 3, the length direction of the sampling conveyor 3 is the X-axis direction, the width direction is the Y-axis direction, and the height direction is the Z-axis direction.
[0026] The sampling assembly includes a connecting bracket 4, a rotating component 5, and a sampling spoon 6. The upper end of the connecting bracket 4 is connected to the adjusting part of the three-axis adjusting mechanism 11. The fixing part of the rotating component 5 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the connecting bracket 4. The sampling spoon 6 is connected to the rotating part of the rotating component 5. The cleaning component and the drying component are respectively arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the sampling conveyor 3. The cleaning component is used to clean the sampling spoon 6, and the drying component is used to dry the sampling spoon 6.
[0027] The cleaning assembly includes a cleaning bracket 7 and a cleaning nozzle 8. The cleaning bracket 7 is detachably connected to the side of the sampling conveyor 3, and the cleaning nozzle 8 is fixed to the cleaning bracket 7. The drying assembly includes a drying bracket 9 and a hot air duct 10. The drying bracket 9 is disposed opposite to the cleaning bracket 7 and is detachably connected to the other side of the sampling conveyor 3. The hot air duct 10 is detachably connected to the drying bracket 9.
[0028] The principle of this invention is as follows: The input end of the sampling conveyor 3 is close to the sampling point of the conveyor line. The X-axis sliding component and the Y-axis sliding component first drive the sampling component to above the sampling point. Then, the Z-axis sliding component drives the sampling component to move down, so that the rotating component 5 drives the sampling spoon 6 to take a sample at the sampling point. After that, the X-axis sliding component and the Y-axis sliding component drive back to above the sampling tray 2. The rotating component 5 drives the sampling spoon 6 to pour the sample into the sampling tray 2. The sampling conveyor 3 transports the sampling tray 2 to the testing station. The Y-axis sliding component drives the sampling component to approach the cleaning component. The cleaning nozzle 8 cleans the sampling spoon 6 with high-pressure cleaning fluid. After cleaning, the Y-axis sliding component drives the sampling component to approach the drying component. The drying component dries the sampling spoon 6 with heat flow to achieve a self-cleaning function and avoid cross-contamination of samples.
