[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0017] Example 1, please refer to Figure 1 .

[0018] This embodiment provides an intelligent cantilever sampling machine for calcined coke, including a sampling head mechanism 1; the sampling head mechanism 1 is mounted on a sampling trolley 2; the sampling trolley 2 is mounted on a main cantilever 3, allowing the sampling trolley 2 to translate along the main cantilever 3; the main cantilever 3 is mounted on the upper end of a fixed frame 31, and a primary feeder 4 is fixedly mounted on the fixed frame 31; the receiving hopper 41 of the primary feeder 4 corresponds to the discharge port of the sampling head mechanism 1, so that when the sampling trolley 2 translates to the preset position, the material discharged from the discharge port of the sampling head mechanism 1 falls into the receiving hopper 41 of the primary feeder 4; the primary feeder The lower end of the discharge pipe 4 passes through and is fixed to the platform frame 42 at the lower end of the fixed frame 31, and communicates with the mixing hopper 5 fixed below the platform frame 42; the discharge port of the mixing hopper 5 is directly opposite the feed position of the secondary feeder 6, and is used to feed materials to the secondary feeder 6; the discharge port of the secondary feeder 6 is directly opposite the top of the waste pool, and is used to discharge waste materials into the waste pool; a divider 7 is installed on the secondary feeder 6, and the discharge port of the divider 7 is connected to the sample collector 8 used for filling material samples; an image recording device 9 is installed at the lower end of the main cantilever 3, and is used to record the sampling process of the sampling head mechanism 1.

[0019] The sampling head mechanism 1 is existing technology, and its sampling head can be raised and lowered to obtain material samples at different depths. For example, a hydraulic pump station device 11 is fixed to one end of the main cantilever 3. The hydraulic pump station device 11 is connected to the sampling head mechanism 1 via a hydraulic hose and is used to control the lifting cylinder of the sampling head mechanism 1 to control the raising and lowering of the sampling head. The mixing bin 5 serves as a temporary storage device, capable of storing samples collected from multiple locations by the sampling head, which are then used as standard samples for the same batch. The main cantilever 3 is suspended at a high position by the platform frame 42 and the fixed frame 31. This accommodates the height of vehicles transporting calcined coke, allowing sampling from above the cargo box. It also provides mounting positions for the primary feeder 4, the mixing bin 5, the secondary feeder 6, and the divider 7, allowing materials to fall sequentially, reducing the number of lifting operations, saving energy, and making the device compact and reducing its footprint. Due to the setting of the main cantilever 3, sampling is performed at a high position while operation can be performed at a low position, avoiding the dangers of working at heights and reducing the difficulty of sampling operations, thus saving labor costs. The platform frame 42 is fixed to the ground, and the fixing frame 31 is fixed to the upper end of the platform frame 42, forming a frame foundation and becoming the installation foundation for each component.

[0020] Preferably, the discharge port of the mixing silo 5 is equipped with an electrically controlled gate valve; the electrically controlled gate valve is connected to the control system circuit in the operating chamber 10; the operating chamber 10 is fixed to the upper end of the platform frame 42. The output timing is controlled by the electrically controlled gate valve to adjust the output amount of each batch.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment, the controllers for the sampling head mechanism 1, sampling trolley 2, primary feeder 4, mixing bin 5, secondary feeder 6, divider 7, and sample collector 8 are all located inside the operating room 10.

[0022] During operation, when a calcined coke transport vehicle enters the sampling machine waiting area, a green light illuminates upon identification, and the pole rises to allow the vehicle to enter. Once the vehicle enters the designated sampling area below the equipment, a voice broadcast prompts the driver to turn off the engine and get out of the vehicle. The operator sets the sampling points via computer, observes through the image recording device 9 outside the control room 10, and then controls the sampling head to reach the designated area position via the control handle. Pressing the sampling button activates the spiral sampling head lifting mechanism, causing the sampling head to descend and the sampling machine to begin rotating and sampling. The collected samples are temporarily stored in the silo. After multi-point sampling is completed, the samples are uniformly sent to the secondary feeder 6. The secondary feeder runs at a slow speed, and a divider 7 (scraping type full-section divider) is installed in the middle of the secondary feeder 6. During the material conveying process, the divider 7 selects samples that enter the sample collector 8 and is automatically filled into the storage tank. Unselected materials enter the waste pool and are removed by a loader after a period of time.

[0023] Even better, the sampling head mechanism 1, primary feeder 4, mixing bin 5, secondary feeder 6, and divider 7 are all equipped with steam cleaning nozzles; the steam cleaning nozzles are connected to the steam cleaning equipment via high-pressure hoses, and the control buttons for the steam cleaning equipment are located in the operating chamber 10. High-pressure steam cleaning ensures cleaning effectiveness and prevents freezing in winter. Cleaning can be performed with a single button in the operating chamber 10. If materials are changed, the cleaning button must be pressed manually. The system will run through the sampling machine, feeder, divider 7, and other related sampling systems of the new material as a cleaning of the sampling system. During this process, care should be taken to ensure that the sample storage tank of the sample collector 8 is separated from the outlet of the divider 7 to avoid contaminating the sample storage tank.

[0024] The advantages of this embodiment are as follows.

[0025] (1) Anti-cheating; the entire sampling process is monitored and archived by the image recording device 9; full-section sampling is taken directly to the bottom of the vehicle to prevent adulteration; the sample storage container can be locked to prevent unauthorized personnel from accessing it;

[0026] (2) High degree of automation and saving manpower; the whole process is completed by semi-automatic control, which is simple and quick; the operator can complete the process in the control room, which is safe; the whole system integrates sampling, reduction, storage and disposal; the laboratory only needs to take away the storage container, which saves manpower and resources for the laboratory.

[0027] (3) The sample is highly representative; the equipment strictly follows the relevant national standards for full-section sampling to ensure the representativeness and reliability of the sample; the reduction ratio is adjustable to meet the manufacturer's needs for the amount of subsamples; the system is equipped with a cleaning function to prevent cross-contamination of materials and ensure the representativeness of the sample.

[0028] In summary, in this embodiment, the main cantilever 3 is positioned at a high position while the operation is performed at a low position, thus avoiding the dangers of working at heights. At the same time, it reduces the difficulty of sampling operations, saves labor costs, and enables automatic sampling, preventing contact by unrelated personnel, reducing the influence of human factors, and improving the reliability of sampling.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
