[0015] The stirring barrel device comprises an inlet pipe, a stirring machine body 2, a stirring mechanism 4 and an outlet pipe, the inlet pipe is arranged above the container body, an inlet electric valve 1 is arranged on the inlet pipe, a liquid level sensor 3 is arranged on one side of the inside of the stirring machine body 2, the stirring mechanism 4 is arranged on the other side of the stirring machine body 2, the outlet pipe is arranged at the bottom of the other side of the stirring machine body 2, an outlet electric valve 5 and a slurry concentration meter 6 are arranged on the outlet pipe; the inlet electric valve 1, the liquid level sensor 3, the stirring mechanism 4, the outlet electric valve 5 and the slurry concentration meter 6 are connected with a PLC controller.

[0016] The inlet pipe comprises two inlet pipes, and one inlet electric valve 1 is arranged on each of the two inlet pipes.

[0017] The other side and the bottom of the stirring machine body 2 are in a slope structure.

[0018] The liquid level sensor 3 is a three-grade liquid level sensor and is arranged from top to bottom on one side of the stirring machine body 2.

[0019] The stirring mechanism 4 comprises a stirring motor and stirring blades, the stirring motor and the stirring blades are connected, the stirring blades are arranged in the inside of the stirring machine body 2, and the stirring motor is arranged outside the stirring machine body 2.

[0020] In actual application, the inlet electric valve 1 is arranged on the two inlet pipes to realize accurate control of the inlet material, the outlet electric valve 5 is arranged on the outlet pipe to control the outlet process, the inlet and outlet flow of the slurry is accurately adjusted through the inlet electric valve 1 and the outlet electric valve 5, and the continuity and uniformity of the stirring process are ensured. The liquid level sensor 3 arranged in the inside of the stirring machine body 2 is a three-grade liquid level sensor, including a low liquid level, a middle liquid level and a high liquid level, and is used for monitoring the liquid level in real time, so that the uneven stirring or overflow accidents caused by the abnormal liquid level are prevented. The stirring mechanism 4 drives the stirring blades to mix the materials through the stirring motor, the stirring motor provides strong stirring power, and the slurry is uniformly mixed in the barrel. Meanwhile, the bottom of the stirring machine body 2 is designed in a slope shape, so that the materials are conveniently discharged. In addition, the slurry concentration meter 6 is arranged at the tail of the outlet, so that the concentration of the slurry is detected in real time.

[0021] The start button SB1 and the stop button SB2 are connected to the input terminals of the PLC controller respectively; the three-grade output terminals of the liquid level sensor and the output of the slurry concentration meter are also connected to the input terminals of the PLC controller.

This enables automated control, significantly improving operational convenience and reducing the need for manual intervention. Users can easily change the feeding, agitation, and discharge time settings to adapt to different production needs, enhancing the system's flexibility and adaptability.
