Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material handling technology, and in particular to a multi-point cleaning system. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial production processes, silos, as key equipment for storing and transporting materials, are prone to material blockage.
[0003] Currently, the main solutions for silo blockage include mechanical vibration and manual tapping. Mechanical vibration uses vibrating equipment to generate mechanical waves, thereby dispersing the blocked material. Manual tapping relies on the operator's experience and physical strength, transmitting impact force by tapping the outer wall of the silo to break up the material buildup.
[0004] However, among the aforementioned existing technologies, the mechanical vibration method is unstable and can easily lead to loosening of the silo structure or damage to the equipment, while the manual knocking method is labor-intensive, inefficient, and poses safety hazards. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a multi-point material cleaning system, which aims to solve the technical problems in the prior art, such as the unstable effect of mechanical vibration method, which easily leads to loosening of the silo structure or equipment damage, and the high labor intensity, low efficiency and safety hazards of manual knocking method.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model employs a multi-point cleaning system, comprising two main air pipes, two sets of cleaning components, and an air supply component. Each set of cleaning components includes a first branch pipe, multiple connecting pipes, and multiple sets of jetting elements. Each set of jetting elements includes two second branch pipes. One end of each of the two main air pipes is fixedly connected to the air supply component, and the other end of each main air pipe is fixedly connected to the two sets of cleaning components. The first branch pipe is fixedly connected to the corresponding main air pipe. One end of each of the multiple connecting pipes is fixedly connected to the first branch pipe, and the other end of each connecting pipe is fixedly connected to multiple sets of jetting elements. Both second branch pipes are fixedly connected to the corresponding connecting pipes, and multiple jetting pipes are fixedly connected to each second branch pipe.
[0007] The air supply assembly includes an air compressor, a first air tank, a second air tank, an air supply pipe, and a connector. The connector is fixedly connected to the air compressor. The first air tank and the second air tank are respectively fixedly connected to the connector. One end of the air supply pipe is fixedly connected to the first air tank, and the other end of the air supply pipe is fixedly connected to the two main air pipes.
[0008] The connector includes an exhaust pipe and a splitter pipe. The two ends of the splitter pipe are fixedly connected to the first air tank and the second air tank, respectively. One end of the exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the air compressor, and the other end of the exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the splitter pipe.
[0009] The bottom of the first gas storage tank is provided with multiple first supports.
[0010] The bottom of the second gas storage tank is equipped with multiple second supports.
[0011] This utility model discloses a multi-point material clearing system. In practical use, multiple jet pipes are installed on the silo, each controlled by an individual valve. Sensors installed inside the silo monitor the material level and blockage status in real time. Then, the control unit controls the valves on the multiple jet pipes to adjust the nozzle position and airflow parameters. When the silo is blocked, compressed air is delivered to two main air pipes through the air supply assembly. The air then flows through the two main air pipes to the corresponding first branch pipes, and through the first branch pipes to multiple connecting pipes. Finally, it flows through the connecting pipes to the second branch pipe and is sprayed into the interior of the silo through the jet pipes. The high-speed airflow generates a downward shear force in the radial direction of the silo, destroying the internal friction formed by the material accumulation and causing the material to collapse naturally. This method effectively solves the problems of existing technologies, such as the unstable effect of mechanical vibration, which easily leads to loosening of the silo structure or equipment damage, and the high labor intensity, low efficiency, and safety hazards of manual knocking.

[0017] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,in Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of the present invention. Figure 2 This is a perspective view of the present invention.
[0018] This utility model provides a multi-point cleaning system, including two main air pipes 101, two sets of cleaning components and an air supply component. Each set of cleaning components includes a first branch pipe 102, multiple connecting pipes 103 and multiple sets of jet components. Each set of jet components includes two second branch pipes 104. One end of each of the two main air pipes 101 is fixedly connected to the air supply component, and the other end of each of the two main air pipes 101 is fixedly connected to the two sets of cleaning components. The first branch pipe 102 is fixedly connected to the corresponding main air pipe 101. One end of each of the multiple connecting pipes 103 is fixedly connected to the first branch pipe 102, and the other end of each of the multiple connecting pipes 103 is fixedly connected to the multiple sets of jet components. Each of the two second branch pipes 104 is fixedly connected to the corresponding connecting pipe 103, and multiple jet pipes 105 are fixedly connected to each second branch pipe 104.
[0019] In this embodiment, multiple jet pipes 105 are respectively installed on the silo 114. Each jet pipe 105 is controlled by an individual valve. The material level and blockage status are monitored in real time by sensors installed in the silo 114. Then, the valves on the multiple jet pipes 105 are controlled by the control unit to adjust the nozzle position and airflow parameters. When the silo 114 is blocked, compressed air is delivered to the two main air pipes 101 through the air supply assembly. The air flows through the two main air pipes 101 to the corresponding first branch pipes 102. The gas flows through the first branch pipes 102 to the multiple connecting pipes 103, and then through the connecting pipes 103 to the second branch pipe 104. Finally, it is sprayed into the interior of the silo 114 through the jet pipes 105. The high-speed airflow generates a downward shear force in the radial direction of the silo 114, which destroys the internal friction formed by the accumulation of material and causes the material to collapse naturally.
[0020] Furthermore, the air supply assembly includes an air compressor 106, a first air tank 107, a second air tank 108, an air supply pipe 109, and a connector. The connector is fixedly connected to the air compressor 106. The first air tank 107 and the second air tank 108 are respectively fixedly connected to the connector. One end of the air supply pipe 109 is fixedly connected to the first air tank 107, and the other end of the air supply pipe 109 is fixedly connected to the two main air pipes 101.
[0021] In this embodiment, the air compressor 106 compresses the air into high-pressure gas, and then the high-pressure gas is delivered to the first air storage tank 107 and the second air storage tank 108 respectively through the connector. The high-pressure air in the first air storage tank 107 serves as the air source for the multi-point cleaning system and flows to the two main air pipes 101 through the air supply pipe 109. The high-pressure air in the second air storage tank 108 is used for pneumatic valves. The air pressure in both the first air storage tank 107 and the second air storage tank 108 is 0.8 MPa.
[0022] Furthermore, the connector includes an exhaust pipe 110 and a diverter pipe 111. The two ends of the diverter pipe 111 are fixedly connected to the first air tank 107 and the second air tank 108, respectively. One end of the exhaust pipe 110 is fixedly connected to the air compressor 106, and the other end of the exhaust pipe 110 is fixedly connected to the diverter pipe 111.
[0023] In this embodiment, the high-pressure gas compressed by the air compressor 106 flows through the exhaust pipe 110 to the diversion pipe 111, and then flows through the diversion pipe 111 to the first air storage tank 107 and the second air storage tank 108 respectively.
[0024] Furthermore, the bottom of the first gas storage tank 107 is provided with a plurality of first supports 112.
[0025] In this embodiment, the first gas storage tank 107 is supported by a plurality of first brackets 112.
[0026] Furthermore, the bottom of the second gas storage tank 108 is provided with multiple second supports 113.
[0027] In this embodiment, the second gas storage tank 108 is supported by a plurality of second brackets 113.
[0028] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Multiple jet pipes 105 are respectively installed on the silo 114, and each jet pipe 105 is controlled by an individual valve. The material level and blockage status are monitored in real time by sensors installed in the silo 114. Then, the valves on the multiple jet pipes 105 are controlled by the control unit to adjust the nozzle position and airflow parameters. When the silo 114 is blocked, the air is compressed into high-pressure gas by the air compressor 106. The high-pressure gas flows through the exhaust pipe 110 to the diversion pipe 111, and then flows through the diversion pipe 111 to the first air storage tank 107 and the second air storage tank 108 respectively. The air in the first air storage tank 107 flows through the air supply pipe. The gas flows through two main air pipes 101, and then through the two main air pipes 101 to the corresponding first branch pipes 102. The gas flows through the first branch pipes 102 to multiple connecting pipes 103, and then through the connecting pipes 103 to the second branch pipe 104. Finally, it is injected into the interior of the hopper 114 through the jet pipe 105. The high-speed airflow generates a downward shear force in the radial direction of the hopper 114, which destroys the internal friction force formed by the accumulation of materials and causes the materials to collapse naturally. This method can effectively solve the problems of the existing technology, such as the unstable effect of mechanical vibration method, which is easy to cause the hopper structure to loosen or the equipment to be damaged, and the high labor intensity, low efficiency and safety hazards of manual knocking method.
[0029] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can understand that implementing all or part of the above-described embodiments and making equivalent changes in accordance with the claims of the present utility model are still within the scope of the utility model.
