Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grain testing, specifically to a three-dimensional powder mixer. Background Technology
[0002] In grain testing, it is sometimes necessary to mix solid powdered test samples. Existing mixers used for mixing test powders usually employ a single mixing method, such as rotary stirring or vibration stirring, which results in poor mixing performance.
[0003] Chinese patent CN 212492681 U discloses an experimental powder mixer, including a main body and a mixing device. The main body is provided with an outer frame and an inner frame. A sample cup is placed in the inner frame. A servo motor can drive the outer frame to rotate along the horizontal axis and simultaneously drive the inner frame to rotate along the vertical axis. Therefore, the powder in the sample cup can be rotated and stirred in a double 360-degree rotation, which is effective, uniform and without dead corners, and achieves a very good mixing effect.
[0004] However, the existing technologies mentioned above have the following shortcomings: First, they can only be adapted to sample cups of a single size. However, there is a need to mix large and small samples during the testing process. In order to avoid the powder sticking to the sample cup wall after mixing, the corresponding sample cups of the corresponding size are usually used to hold the corresponding sample. Therefore, multiple mixers are required to meet the mixing requirements of large and small samples at the same time. Second, only one sample can be processed in a single operation. Therefore, the existing technologies are extremely time-consuming when the number of samples to be processed is large. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a three-dimensional powder mixer to address the shortcomings of existing technologies.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A three-dimensional powder mixer includes a body, an inner frame, and an outer frame. The outer frame is rotatably mounted on the body via left-right extending outer frame pivots, and the inner frame is rotatably mounted on the outer frame via front-back extending inner frame pivots. The inner frame includes four sets of cross-shaped support beams and adapter beams fixed to the support beams. A coaster is mounted on each support beam. The coaster includes a base and limiting claws located at the ends of the base. The limiting claws include a first limiting claw and a second limiting claw. The height of the first limiting claw is higher than the height of the second limiting claw. One first limiting claw and three corresponding second limiting claws are paired. A set of limiting claws is formed to limit the movement of the lower half of the small sample cup along the support plane of the support beam. A total of four sets of limiting claws are provided on the bottom pad. The four first limiting claws of the four sets of limiting claws are symmetrical about the center of rotation of the inner frame. The four first limiting claws cooperate to limit the movement of the lower half of the large sample cup along the support plane of the support beam. A clamping mechanism for pressing the corresponding sample cup from the top is installed on the adapter beam. The clamping mechanism includes a locking state that presses the sample cup into the cup pad and an unlocking state that releases the sample cup so that the sample cup can be taken out of the cup pad.
[0008] Furthermore, the four sets of limiting claws are symmetrical about the center of the inner frame rotation axis.
[0009] Furthermore, a bolt hole is provided in the center of the base pad, and the base pad is fixed to the support beam by screws or bolts, with the head of the screws or bolts completely recessed into the bolt hole.
[0010] Furthermore, the adapter beam is cross-shaped, and the ends of the support beam and the corresponding ends of the adapter beam are fixed together by connecting beams.
[0011] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism includes a clamping seat, a clamping rod, a wrench, and a connecting rod. The clamping seat is fixed on the adapter beam. The clamping rod is installed in the clamping seat and can be guided and moved in the vertical direction. The upper end of the wrench is hinged to the clamping seat, and the middle part is hinged to the upper end of the connecting rod. The lower end of the connecting rod is hinged to the clamping rod. The lower end of the clamping rod is used to press against the corresponding sample cup to form a clamping end.
[0012] Furthermore, the center position of each set of limiting claws is offset from the adapter beam at a certain angle on the support plane so that the center part of the small sample cup is located below the clamping rod.
[0013] Furthermore, the sample cup includes a cup body and a sample cup lid disposed on the upper end of the cup body, and an elastic material is provided at the connection between the sample cup lid and the cup body.
[0014] Furthermore, a positioning groove is provided on the upper end of the sample cup lid, and the shape of the positioning groove matches the shape of the pressing end of the pressing mechanism so that it can be engaged.
[0015] Furthermore, the sample cup includes an observation section made of transparent material, the height of which is 1 / 2 of the height of the sample cup and the width of which is 1 / 4 of the circumference of the sample cup.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] This invention modifies the design of the coaster, allowing the inner frame to accommodate either a single large sample cup for mixing large samples or four smaller sample cups for mixing smaller samples. This significantly reduces mixing time when mixing a large number of small samples. To place a sample cup, simply lift the lever to insert it into the coaster, then press down the lever to lock the cup in place. The coaster's perimeter locking claws restrict the sample cup's movement along the supporting plane, ensuring stable fixation.
[0018] The parts of this device not covered herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. This utility model has a scientific and reasonable structure, is safe and convenient to use, and provides great help to people. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0030] An embodiment of the three-dimensional powder mixer of this utility model:
[0031] The specific structure of a three-dimensional powder mixer is as follows: Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the device includes a body (not shown in the figure for clarity of the internal structure). An outer frame pivot 1 extending left and right is mounted on the body, and an outer frame 2 is rotatably mounted on the body via the outer frame pivot 1. An inner frame pivot 3 extending front and rear is mounted on both the front and rear walls of the outer frame 2, and an inner frame 4 is rotatably mounted inside the outer frame 2 via the inner frame pivot 3. The inner frame 4 includes four sets of cross-shaped support beams 41 and four sets of cross-shaped adapter beams 42. The ends of the support beams 41 and the corresponding ends of the adapter beams 42 are fixed together by connecting beams 43. A cup pad 5 is bolted to the support beams 41. The cup pad 5 has a groove in the center, and the lower end of the sample cup 6 is placed in the groove of the cup pad 5, thus restricting its degree of freedom parallel to the upper surface of the support beam 41. A clamping mechanism 7 is provided on the adapter beam 42, which is used to clamp the sample cup 6 on the support beam 41. The machine body is equipped with a servo motor for driving the outer frame to rotate. A transmission mechanism is provided between the outer frame rotating shaft and the inner frame rotating shaft. The structure of the transmission mechanism is the same as that of the prior art. Its function is to transmit the rotation of the outer frame to the inner frame so as to drive the inner frame to rotate synchronously. Therefore, it will not be described in detail in this application.
[0032] The coaster 5 includes a disc-shaped base 52 and limiting claws located at the ends of the base 52. The limiting claws include a first limiting claw 53 and a second limiting claw 54. The limiting claw furthest from the inner frame pivot 3 is the first limiting claw 53, and the others are the second limiting claws 54. The height of the first limiting claw 53 is higher than the height of the second limiting claw 54. The base 52 is provided with multiple bolt holes 51. The bolt holes 51 are larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. The upper part of the bolt holes 51 allows the head of the bolt to be recessed so that the lower end of the corresponding sample cup 6 can be tightly attached to the base 52.
[0033] Sample cup 6 comes in two sizes, large and small. A first limiting claw 53 and three second limiting claws 54 combine to form a set of limiting claws for the small sample cup 61. A total of four sets of limiting claws are provided for limiting the small sample cup 61, and these four sets of limiting claws are symmetrical about the inner frame pivot 3. Therefore, in this embodiment, four small sample cups 61 can be loaded at once. After loading the four small sample cups 61, the top view is as follows. Figure 2 As shown. Among the four sets of limiting claws, the four first limiting claws 53 are also symmetrical about the center of the inner frame pivot 3. The diameter of the large sample cup 62 is the same as the diameter of the inner circle of the multiple first limiting claws 53. At this time, in this embodiment, a large sample cup 62 can be installed. The four first limiting claws 53 limit the size of the large sample cup 62. The top view is shown below. Figure 3 As shown, the bottom surface of the large sample cup 62 is supported by the second limiting claw 54 and will not contact the bottom pad 52.
[0034] Each sample cup 6 includes a cup body 63 and a sample cup lid 64 covering the upper end of the cup body 63. An elastic material is provided at the connection between the sample cup lid 64 and the cup body 63, so that the sample cup lid 64 can tightly cover the cup body 63. After the sample cup 6 is placed in the cup pad 5, the translational movement of the sample cup 6 along the support plane of the support beam 41 is restricted.
[0035] The clamping mechanism 7 includes a clamping seat 71, a clamping rod 72, a wrench 73, and a connecting rod 74. The clamping seat 71 is fixed to the adapter beam 42 by bolts. The clamping rod 72 is mounted in the clamping seat 71 and can be guided and moved in the vertical direction. The upper end of the wrench is hinged to the clamping seat 71, and the middle part is hinged to the upper end of the connecting rod 74. The lower end of the connecting rod 74 is hinged to the clamping rod 72. Therefore, the clamping mechanism 7 is actually a crank-slider mechanism. Pulling the wrench upward will lift the clamping rod 72 upward, making it convenient to pick up and put down the sample cup 6; pressing the wrench downward will cause the clamping rod 72 to press the sample cup 6 downward, fixing the sample cup in the inner frame 4. The lower end of the clamping rod 72 forms the clamping end for pressing the sample cup 6.
[0036] In a more preferred embodiment, the upper end of the sample cup lid 64 is provided with a positioning groove. The shape of the positioning groove matches the shape of the pressing end of the pressing mechanism 7 so that it can be inserted. The matching part of the two is a non-rotating body. This structure makes it more difficult for the pressing mechanism 7 to detach from the sample cup 6.
[0037] In this embodiment, the center position of each set of limiting claws is offset from the corresponding adapter beam 42 at a certain angle on the support plane so that the center part of the small sample cup 61 is located below the clamping rod. Therefore, in this embodiment, each small sample cup 61 is clamped in the center by one clamping mechanism 7, and each large sample cup 62 is clamped simultaneously by four clamping mechanisms 7. In other embodiments, if the center position of each set of limiting claws is exactly below the corresponding adapter beam 42, each sample cup 6 can also be clamped from both sides by two clamping mechanisms 7.
[0038] In this embodiment, the sample cup 6 includes an observation section 66 made of transparent material. The height of the observation section 66 is 1 / 2 of the height of the sample cup 6, and the width is 1 / 4 of the circumference of the sample cup 6. Therefore, the degree of mixing of the powder inside the cup can be observed without opening the lid.
[0039] 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.
