DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0021] like Figure 1 The diagram shows a training platform for a tobacco metering and conveying control unit. The platform simulates the signal operation system of a cigarette machine conveying materials. It includes a PLC controller, a switch, a frequency converter 6, a three-phase asynchronous motor 1, a fork-shaped photoelectric switch 5, a through-beam photoelectric switch 10, a baffle 7, and a jet solenoid valve 8. The PLC controller is connected in series with the switch, frequency converter 6, and three-phase asynchronous motor 1. The fork-shaped photoelectric switch 5, through-beam photoelectric switch 10, and jet solenoid valve 8 are respectively connected to the PLC controller. The PLC controller receives and outputs control signals and uses a PID speed control algorithm to send signal commands to each electrical component. The baffle 7 can be adjusted vertically to simulate the amount of tobacco stored in the hopper. The through-beam photoelectric switch 10 detects the height of the baffle 7 and transmits the detected height signal to the PLC controller. The three-phase asynchronous motor... Machine 1 simulates the conveyor belt for feeding cigarettes. The PLC controller can transmit signals to the frequency converter 6 via a switch. The frequency converter 6 controls the speed change of the three-phase asynchronous motor 1. The fork-shaped photoelectric switch 5 detects the speed of the three-phase asynchronous motor 1 and transmits the detected speed signal to the PLC controller. In actual production, multiple air nozzles are installed in the hopper to blow the tobacco shreds in the hopper, making the tobacco shreds more evenly distributed. This utility model uses a blow-blowing solenoid valve 8 to simulate the application scenario of controlling the opening and closing of the air nozzles. Since this utility model uses a baffle seat 15 to simulate the hopper, there is no real hopper. Therefore, the blow-blowing solenoid valve 8 is installed on the baffle seat 15. The training platform also includes a touch screen, which is connected to the switch. Data input, modification, device start-up, and pause are performed on the PLC controller through the touch screen to control the status and parameter settings of various components. Figure 3 As shown, the training platform also includes a start switch 12, which is connected to the circuits of each electrical component and controls the opening and closing of the circuits of each electrical component.
[0022] According to the height position change of the baffle 7, the amount of tobacco stored in the cigarette machine hopper is simulated, and the PLC controller adjusts the running speed of the three-phase asynchronous motor 1 in real time according to the height position change of the baffle 7. When the baffle 7 is in the high position, the speed of the three-phase asynchronous motor 1 needs to be reduced to simulate the reduction of the conveying speed of the conveying belt and reduce the amount of tobacco entering. When the baffle 7 is in the low position, the speed of the three-phase asynchronous motor 1 needs to be increased to simulate the increase of the conveying speed of the conveying belt and increase the amount of tobacco entering. The height position of the baffle 7 is detected by the photoelectric switch 10, and then the signal is sent to the PLC controller. The PLC controller compares the signals received by the fork-shaped photoelectric switch 5 and the photoelectric switch 10, and redefines the frequency value of the frequency converter 6 to adjust the speed of the three-phase asynchronous motor 1 in real time, so that the amount of tobacco entering the cigarette machine matches the rolling speed of the cigarette machine. When the baffle 7 is in the lowest position, the PLC controller outputs a three-phase asynchronous motor 1 start signal, and the conveying belt conveys tobacco to the hopper. When the baffle 7 is in the highest position, the PLC controller outputs a three-phase asynchronous motor 1 stop signal, and the conveying belt stops conveying tobacco to the hopper. While the photoelectric switch 10 transmits the position change of the baffle 7 to the PLC controller, the PLC controller controls the corresponding height position of the spray electromagnetic valve 8 to be connected, and the spray electromagnetic valve 8 outside the corresponding position is closed. When the baffle 7 is in the lowest position, the spray electromagnetic valve 8 is closed.
[0023] As shown in Figure 2 The training platform further includes a base 9, the three-phase asynchronous motor 1, the frequency converter 6, and the start switch 12 are fixedly installed on the upper part of the base 9, the output shaft of the three-phase asynchronous motor 1 is fixedly installed with a rotation detection disc 3, the base 9 is further installed with a protective cover 4, the protective cover 4 is frame-shaped, the fork-shaped photoelectric switch 5 is fixedly installed on the protective cover 4, the rotation detection disc 3 is located between the fork-shaped photoelectric switches 5, and the protective cover 4 is used for protecting the rotation detection disc 3 and providing an installation position for the fork-shaped photoelectric switch 5; the rotation detection disc 3 is provided with a detection gap 14, and the detection gap 14 is axially corresponding to the fork-shaped photoelectric switch 5; in use, the three-phase asynchronous motor 1 drives the rotation detection disc 3 to axially rotate between the fork-shaped photoelectric switches 5, the rotation detection disc 3 rotates one circle, the detection gap 14 passes through the fork-shaped photoelectric switch 5 once, and the fork-shaped photoelectric switch 5 is connected once, so as to detect the speed of the three-phase asynchronous motor 1.

The baffle seat 15 is further provided with a sliding rail 17 on one side of the baffle sliding groove 16, the sliding rail 17 is slidingly installed with a sliding block 18, one side of the baffle 7 is fixedly connected with the sliding block 18, the baffle 7 is fixed and guided by the sliding block 18; the sliding block 18 is further fixedly provided with a baffle handle 11 on one side, the baffle handle 11 is pulled up and down to drive the sliding block 18, so that the baffle 7 realizes the position change; the bottom of the baffle handle 11 on the base 9 is further provided with a anti-collision base 13, the distance of the baffle handle 11 sliding downward is limited by the anti-collision base 13, so as to avoid the bottom of the baffle 7 colliding with the base 9, thereby losing the position precision. The base 9 is further provided with a handle 2, which is convenient for carrying the platform.
[0025] Specific use method: before the practical operation training of the electrician, the platform is placed on the desktop, and the platform is powered on through the start switch 12, and the practical operation training is started.
