Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of mixer technology, and more specifically to a mixer. Background Technology
[0002] Potting compounds are important electronic materials that play a crucial role in the manufacturing and maintenance of electronic products. For example, they protect electronic components from physical damage such as dust, moisture, and corrosive gases; resist chemical corrosion; ensure good insulation between different electronic components; improve the thermal conductivity of electronic products; and extend the lifespan of electronic components. Potting compounds are generally classified into two types: one-component and two-component. One-component potting compounds do not require mixing before use, while two-component potting compounds must be mixed.
[0003] Two-component potting compounds consist of component A and component B. During mixing, due to the significant density difference between components A and B, existing mixing machines often result in the less dense component floating on top of the denser one, leading to uneven mixing. This uneven mixing causes an uneven surface on the cured compound. Thinner areas of the compound have poorer waterproofing and moisture resistance, potentially affecting electronic products in humid environments and reducing their lifespan. Conversely, thicker areas make it difficult to probe components with a needle, hindering subsequent component testing and repair. Faulty components may be difficult to detect and repair promptly. Furthermore, during use, internal electronic components may tilt slightly due to variations in the compound layer thickness, increasing the likelihood of future malfunctions. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a mixer, which aims to solve the technical problem in the prior art that when mixing potting compounds with significantly different densities, the less dense compound floats on top of the more dense compound, resulting in uneven mixing and reduced performance of the potting compound.

[0014] Optionally, it also includes a limiting component, which is located between the mixing container and the first lifting member. The limiting component is fixedly disposed on the first lifting member, and under the action of the limiting component, the mixing container is detachably disposed on the first lifting member.
[0015] Optionally, the limiting component includes a base plate, a second cylinder, a first limiting block, and a second limiting block. The second cylinder, the first limiting block, the mixing container, and the second limiting block are arranged laterally on the upper surface of the base plate. The lower surface of the base plate is fixedly connected to the movable end. Both the first limiting block and the second limiting block are provided with limiting grooves. The limiting grooves are used to limit the mixing container. The second limiting block is fixedly disposed on the base plate. The second cylinder is used to fix the mixing container to the base plate through the first limiting block. The second cylinder is electrically connected to the controller.
[0016] Optionally, the system also includes a pressure sensor and a display. The pressure sensor is fixedly disposed between the first lifting component and the mixing container. The pressure sensor is electrically connected to the controller. The pressure sensor is used to monitor the weight of the mixture to be mixed, and the weight is displayed on the display.
[0017] Optionally, it also includes at least two discharging assemblies, each comprising a storage container, a solenoid valve, and a feed pipe that are fixedly connected longitudinally in sequence. The solenoid valve is electrically connected to the controller, and the storage container, the solenoid valve, and the feed pipe are connected in communication. The discharging assembly is used to introduce the mixture to be mixed into the mixing container.
[0018] Furthermore, to achieve the above objectives, the present invention also provides a mixing method for the mixer described in any of the foregoing claims, the mixing method comprising the following steps:
[0019] The controller receives control signals;
[0020] The controller controls the first lifting component and the motor to start working according to the control signal, so that the mixing container connected to the first lifting component moves longitudinally reciprocating relative to the motor under the drive of the first lifting component, and the mixture to be mixed in the mixing container is stirred by the stirring head driven by the motor.
[0021] Optionally, the stirring method further includes the step of:
[0022] The controller controls the second lifting component to start working according to the control signal, so that the motor installed on the second lifting component will perform longitudinal reciprocating motion under the drive of the second lifting component.
[0023] Optionally, before the controller controls the first lifting member and the motor to start working according to the control signal, so that the mixing container connected to the first lifting member performs longitudinal reciprocating motion relative to the motor under the drive of the first lifting member, and before the step of the mixture to be mixed in the mixing container being stirred by the stirring head driven by the motor, the method further includes the following step:
[0024] The controller starts the second cylinder according to the control signal;
[0025] The second cylinder compresses the mixing container through the second limiting block, thereby fixing the mixing container to the base plate.
[0026] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: By placing the mixture to be mixed in the mixing container, turning on the power to put the mixer in standby mode, and turning on the control switch to start the mixer, the controller receives a control signal. The controller then controls the first cylinder and motor to start working according to the control signal. The movable end of the first cylinder begins to perform longitudinal linear reciprocating motion. Since the mixing container is located on the movable end of the first cylinder, it also performs longitudinal linear reciprocating motion under the drive of the movable end. After the motor starts working, the motor shaft rotates, and the coupling transmits the rotational motion of the shaft to the stirring head. The end of the stirring head away from the shaft extends into the mixing container. The rotating stirring head will stir the mixture to be mixed in the mixing container. Accompanied by the longitudinal linear reciprocating motion of the mixing container, the stirring head will repeatedly stir the upper and lower layers of the mixture. In this way, the denser components of the mixture that sink to the bottom can be moved to the upper layer, while the less dense components that float to the upper layer can be moved to the lower layer. This prevents the less dense components from floating on top of the denser components when mixing two or more components with significantly different densities, thus achieving uniform mixing of the two components. When the mixture is a two-component potting compound, this method avoids the phenomenon of the less dense potting compound floating on top of the denser one, achieving uniform mixing of the two-component potting compound. This solves the technical problem in the prior art where the less dense potting compound floats on top of the denser one when mixing two-component potting compounds with significantly different densities, leading to uneven mixing and reduced potting compound performance.

[0046] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0047] refer to Figure 1 The mixer described in this embodiment includes a motor 100, a mixing head 200, a mixing container 300, a first lifting component 400, and a housing 600. During use, the mixer is placed on a horizontal platform 000, with the housing 600 in contact with the horizontal platform 000. The horizontal platform 000 can be any surface that provides good support, and its height can be designed according to the operator's operating habits or height, allowing for convenient and comfortable operation. In the figure, the direction perpendicular to the horizontal platform is the longitudinal direction, and the motor 100, mixing head 200, mixing container 300, and first lifting component 400 are arranged sequentially along this longitudinal direction.
[0048] Further reference Figure 2 The mixer described in this embodiment also includes a coupling 700. Figure 2 This is an exploded view of the motor 100, coupling 700, and stirring head 200. The coupling 700 has a circular first through hole 710 at its center. Both the motor 100's shaft 110 and the stirring head 200 are cylindrical, and their diameters match the diameter of the first through hole 710. When the shaft 110 and stirring head 200 are inserted into the first through hole 710, the stirring head 200 is fixed to the motor 100's shaft 110 under the action of the coupling 700. In this way, the rotational motion of the shaft 110 can be transmitted through the coupling 700. When the motor 100 starts, the rotating shaft 110 rotates, driving the stirring head 200 to rotate. If the end of the stirring head 200 away from the rotating shaft 110 extends into the mixing container 300, the rotating stirring head 200 can stir the mixture contained in the mixing container 300. The stirring head 200 can be made of a composite material of stainless steel and Teflon, which has high mechanical properties and anti-stick properties, facilitating cleaning. The mixing container 300 can also be made of Teflon for easy cleaning. In some embodiments, the rotating shaft 110 has an internal thread, and the stirring head 200 has an external thread. The stirring head 200 is fixed to the rotating shaft 110 of the motor 100 by a screw connection. In still other embodiments, stirring blades 210 are installed on the stirring head 200. The stirring blades 210 can have different shapes, such as a fan shape, which can increase the stirring efficiency during stirring.
[0049] Further reference Figure 3 The mixer described in this embodiment also includes a controller 500, which includes a circuit board 520 and a control switch 510. Figure 3 This is an exploded view of the chassis 600 and controller 500. The chassis 600 includes a U-shaped middle plate 610, a lower plate 620, a top plate 630, a rear plate 640, and a column 650. A U-shaped base 621 is mounted on the lower plate 620. The U-shaped middle plate 610 includes heat dissipation vents 611, each containing a number of circular through holes. The specific number of these through holes is determined as needed, and the arrangement of the through holes can also be other shapes, such as squares. The number of heat dissipation vents 611 can be determined as needed. In this embodiment, four circuit boards are shown. The circuit board 520 is disposed inside the U-shaped middle plate 610 and is fixedly connected to both sides of the U-shaped middle plate 610. The control switch 510 is disposed on the outer surface of the U-shaped middle plate 610. The U-shaped middle plate 610, the lower plate 620, the upper plate 630, the rear plate 640 and the column 650 are all provided with a certain number of through holes. The U-shaped middle plate 610, the lower plate 620, the upper plate 630, the rear plate 640 and the column 650 can be fixedly assembled by a pair of bolts and nuts and by using the aforementioned through holes.
[0050] The controller in this application embodiment can be a PLC controller.
[0051] Further reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The mixer described in this embodiment also includes an L-shaped support 800. Figure 4 This is an exploded view of the rear plate 640, column 650, L-shaped bracket 800, and motor 100 in this embodiment. Figure 5 for Figure 4An enlarged view of section A shows that the L-shaped support 800 has a first mounting hole 810 on one side, a second mounting hole 820 and a circular second through hole 830 on the other side, a third mounting hole 641 on the rear plate 640, two third through holes 651 on the column 650, and a first threaded hole 120 on the motor 100. The number of the first mounting holes 810, 820, 641 and 120 can be set as needed, and this embodiment is not limited. The illustration shows that there are four first mounting holes 810, 820 and 120, and ten third mounting holes 641. The motor 100's shaft 110 passes through the second through hole 830, and the positions of the four second mounting holes 820 and four first threaded holes 120 are... To match the mounting holes, screws are passed through each second mounting hole 820 to engage with each corresponding first threaded hole 120, thus fixing the motor 100 to the L-shaped bracket 800. Bolts are then passed through the first mounting hole 810, the third through hole 651, and the third mounting hole 641 in sequence, and the nuts are tightened to fix the L-shaped bracket 800 to the column 650 and the rear plate 640, thus mounting the motor 100 to the chassis 600. Each third through hole 651 covers five longitudinally arranged third mounting holes 641, allowing the first mounting hole 810 to engage with third mounting holes 641 at different positions. This enables adjustment of the longitudinal position of the L-shaped bracket 800 on the chassis according to different needs, thereby adjusting the longitudinal position of the motor 100.
[0052] Further reference Figure 6In this embodiment, the first lifting component 400 includes a first cylinder 410, which includes a fixed end 412 and a movable end 411. The fixed end 412 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped base 621 by screws, thereby fixing the fixed end 412 to the housing 600, that is, fixing the first lifting component 400 to the housing 600. The bottom of the mixing container 300 is provided with a threaded hole (not shown in the figure), and the movable end 411 is provided with a through hole (not shown in the figure) for the screw to pass through and adapted to the threaded hole at the bottom of the mixing container 300. By passing the screw through the through hole on the movable end 411 and tightening it with the threaded hole at the bottom of the mixing container 300, the mixing container 300 can be placed on the movable end 411. When it is necessary to remove the mixing container 300, a wrench or other disassembly tool can be used to unscrew the screws from the threaded hole at the bottom of the mixing container 300, thereby making the mixing container 300 detachably mounted on the movable end 411, that is, the mixing container 300 detachably mounted on the first lifting member 400; when the first cylinder 410 is started, the movable end 411 performs a longitudinal linear reciprocating motion, thereby driving the mixing container 300 connected thereto to perform a longitudinal reciprocating motion. Through this structure, the first lifting member 400 can drive the mixing container 300 to perform a longitudinal reciprocating motion; the first lifting member in this embodiment can also be other structures, such as a screw drive structure, a gear drive structure, etc., and this application does not impose any limitations.
[0053] In this embodiment, the motor 100, the first cylinder 410, and the control switch 510 are all electrically connected to the controller 500. That is, the motor 100, the first lifting component 400, and the control switch 510 are all electrically connected to the controller 500. Thus, the controller 500 can be started by the control switch 510, thereby enabling the controller 500 to control the motor 100 and the first lifting component 400.
[0054] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: The mixture to be mixed is placed in a mixing container. By adjusting the installation position of the L-shaped bracket on the chassis, the motor is adjusted to a suitable position to ensure that the stirring head is always inserted into the mixing container during operation. The power is turned on to put the mixer in standby mode. The mixer is started by turning on the control switch. At this time, the controller receives a control signal and controls the first cylinder and motor to start working according to the control signal. The movable end of the first cylinder begins to perform longitudinal linear reciprocating motion. Since the mixing container is located on the movable end of the first cylinder, it also performs longitudinal linear reciprocating motion under the drive of the movable end. Therefore, by designing a structure that includes the first cylinder for the first lifting component, the first lifting component can drive the mixing container, causing it to perform longitudinal reciprocating motion under the drive of the first lifting component. After the motor starts working, the motor shaft rotates. Since the stirring head is fixed to the motor shaft through a coupling, the coupling can transmit the rotational motion of the shaft to the stirring head. The end of the stirring head away from the shaft extends into the mixing container. The rotating stirring head will stir the mixture to be mixed in the mixing container, accompanied by the mixing... The apparatus undergoes longitudinal linear reciprocating motion, with the stirring head repeatedly stirring the mixture at the top and bottom layers. This process causes the denser components that sink to the bottom to rise to the top, while the less dense components that float to the top rise to the bottom. This prevents the less dense components from floating on top of the denser ones when mixing two or more components with significantly different densities, ensuring uniform mixing. When the mixture is a two-component potting compound, this prevents the less dense component from floating on top of the denser one, achieving uniform mixing of the two components. This solves the technical problem in existing technologies where, when mixing two-component potting compounds with significantly different densities, the less dense component floats on top, leading to uneven mixing and reduced potting compound performance.
[0055] Further reference Figure 7 and Figure 8In some embodiments, the mixer described in this application further includes a second lifting component, which includes a rodless cylinder 900. The rodless cylinder 900 includes a cylinder body 910 and a slider 920. The cylinder body 910 is fixedly mounted on the rear plate 640 of the housing 600 by bolts, that is, the second lifting component is fixedly mounted on the housing 600. The slider 920 is provided with a second threaded hole 921. By passing a screw through the first mounting hole 810 and the third through hole 651 and screwing it into the second threaded hole 921, the L-shaped bracket 800 and the slider 920 can be fixed. Since the motor 100 is fixed on the L-shaped bracket 800, the motor 100 is connected to the L-shaped bracket 800 and the rodless cylinder 900 by bolts. The slider 920 is fixedly connected, that is, the motor 100 is set on the second lifting member. When the rodless cylinder 900 is started, the slider 920 will perform longitudinal reciprocating motion, thereby driving the screw screwed to the second threaded hole 921 to perform longitudinal reciprocating motion in the third through hole 651, and then driving the L-shaped bracket 800 and the motor 100 fixed on the L-shaped bracket 800 to perform longitudinal reciprocating motion. That is, the slider 920 is used to drive the longitudinal reciprocating motion of the motor 100, that is, the second lifting member 400 is used to drive the motor 100 to perform longitudinal reciprocating motion. In this embodiment, the rodless cylinder 900 and the controller 500 are electrically connected, that is, the second lifting member and the controller 500 are electrically connected.
[0056] In this embodiment, a rodless cylinder is installed between the rear panel and the column of the chassis. The rodless cylinder is electrically connected to the controller. When the controller starts the rodless cylinder, its slider performs longitudinal reciprocating motion, thereby driving the L-shaped bracket screwed to the slider to perform longitudinal reciprocating motion, which in turn drives the motor to perform longitudinal reciprocating motion. Through this structure, the longitudinal height of the motor can be automatically adjusted. The stirring head is fixedly installed on the motor shaft, thereby realizing the automatic adjustment of the longitudinal height of the stirring head. The longitudinal reciprocating motion of the stirring head, in conjunction with the longitudinal reciprocating motion of the mixing container, can improve the stirring effect of the material to be stirred in the mixing container.
[0057] Further reference Figure 9 and Figure 10In some other embodiments, the mixer described in this application further includes a limiting component 10, which includes a base plate 14, a second cylinder 13, a first limiting block 11, and a second limiting block 12. The second cylinder 13, the first limiting block 11, the mixing container 300, and the second limiting block 12 are arranged laterally on the upper surface of the base plate 14. The first limiting block 11 is provided with a first limiting groove 15, and the second limiting block 12 is provided with a second limiting groove 16. The shapes of the first limiting groove 15 and the second limiting groove 16 match the outer surface of the mixing container 300. The fixed end of the second cylinder 13 is fixed to the base plate 14, and the second limiting block 12 is fixed to the base plate 14 by screws. The limiting component 10 is located between the mixing container 300 and the first lifting member 400. The lower surface of the base plate 14 and the movable end of the first cylinder 410 are fixedly connected by screws. With this structure, the limiting component 10 is fixedly mounted on the first lifting member 400.
[0058] In this embodiment, the second cylinder 13 and the controller 500 are electrically connected. When the controller 500 controls the second cylinder 13 to start, the movable end of the second cylinder 13 presses against the first limiting block 11, so that the first limiting groove 15 of the first limiting block 11 and the second limiting groove 16 of the second limiting block 12 are tightly fitted to the outer surface of the mixing container 300. This achieves the limiting effect of the first limiting groove 15 and the second limiting groove 16 on the mixing container 300, fixing the mixing container 300 on the base plate 14 and preventing the mixing container from moving during the operation of the mixer. When it is necessary to remove the mixing container 300 from the mixer, the controller 500 only needs to control the second cylinder 13 to close, and the movable end of the second cylinder 13 will stop pressing against the first limiting block 11. The first limiting groove 15 will leave the outer surface of the mixing container 300, and the mixing container 300 can be removed. Therefore, the second cylinder 13 is used to fix the mixing container 300 to the base plate through the first limiting block 11, and then fix the mixing container 300 to the first lifting member 400. Under the action of the limiting component 10, the mixing container 300 is detachably set on the first lifting member 400.
[0059] In other embodiments, based on the above embodiments, the limiting component 10 does not include a second cylinder, and the second limiting block 12 has a different structure, further referencing... Figure 11The second limiting block 12 includes a connecting rod 17. One end of the connecting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the second limiting block 12, and the other end is fixed with a cylindrical structure 18. The inner wall of the cylindrical structure 18 is provided with internal threads. A screw 19 is screwed onto the internal threads of the cylindrical structure 18. One end of the nut of the screw 19 is located on one side of the first limiting block 11, and the other end of the screw 19 has a through hole (not shown in the figure). A torsion bar 20 is inserted into the through hole. In use, the torsion bar 20 is rotated, and the screw 19 moves toward the first limiting block 11 until it squeezes the first limiting block 11 and clamps the mixing container 300 located between the first limiting block 11 and the second limiting block 12, so that the mixing container 300 is fixed on the base 14. This embodiment has a simple structure and low cost.
[0060] Further reference Figure 12 In some embodiments, the mixer described in this application further includes a pressure sensor 60 and a display 70. The pressure sensor 60 is fixedly disposed between the first lifting member 400 and the mixing container 300. Both the pressure sensor 60 and the display 70 are electrically connected to the controller 500. When the mixture to be mixed is placed in the mixing container 300 and the control switch 510 is turned on, the controller 500 receives the start signal and controls the pressure sensor 60 to start. The pressure sensor 60 monitors the pressure signal it receives and transmits the pressure signal to the controller 500. The controller 500 converts the received pressure signal into a gravity value and displays it in real time on the display 70. In this way, the pressure sensor 60 can detect the weight of the mixture to be mixed. By comparing the gravity value displayed on the display 70 with a preset value, the weight of the mixture to be mixed in the mixing container 300 can be determined, and the weight of the mixture to be mixed can be increased or decreased accordingly. This embodiment is beneficial for precise control of the weight of the mixture to be mixed.
[0061] In some other embodiments, the mixer further includes a discharge assembly 50, which includes a storage container 51, a solenoid valve 52, and a feed pipe 53 that are fixedly connected longitudinally. The storage container 51 is used to store the mixture to be mixed. A through hole is provided at the bottom of the storage container 51. The solenoid valve 52 is used to control the opening and closing of the through hole. When the solenoid valve 52 is open, the storage container 51, the solenoid valve 52, and the feed pipe 53 are connected. The mixture to be mixed in the storage container 51 flows out through the through hole at the bottom of the storage container 51, and flows through the solenoid valve 52 and the feed pipe 53 before flowing into the mixing container 300. With this structure, the discharge assembly 50 can introduce the mixture to be mixed into the mixing container 300. In this embodiment, the storage container 51 can be designed to be transparent so that the remaining amount of the mixture stored in the storage container 51 can be observed; the material, diameter, length and other parameters of the feed pipe 53 can be designed differently according to the different properties of the mixture to be mixed so as to guide the mixture into the mixing container 300; the solenoid valve 52 and the controller 500 are electrically connected so that the controller 500 controls the solenoid valve 52; the number of discharge components 50 can be set as needed, and two are shown in the figure.
[0062] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: When the mixture to be mixed is placed in the mixing container and the control switch is turned on, the controller receives the start signal and controls the pressure sensor and solenoid valve to open. At this time, the mixture to be mixed in the storage container flows out from the bottom of the storage container and flows into the mixing container after passing through the solenoid valve and the feed pipe. The pressure sensor monitors the weight of the mixture to be mixed. When the weight of the mixture to be mixed reaches the preset value, the pressure sensor transmits a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the solenoid valve to close. The mixture to be mixed in the storage container then stops flowing out from the bottom of the storage container. Through this structure, automatic feeding of the mixer is realized, making it more convenient to use.
[0063] refer to Figure 13 This application also provides a stirring method for use in the mixer described in any of the foregoing embodiments, comprising:
[0064] Step S110: The controller receives a control signal;
[0065] Specifically, a controller is a device or apparatus used to monitor, regulate, and control the operating status of an electrical appliance. Based on the input signals of the controlled object and a predetermined control law, the controller calculates and processes the data to generate corresponding output signals, which are then transmitted to other devices electrically connected to the controller within the electrical appliance to achieve control of the appliance. A mixer is an electrical appliance. When the mixer needs to be used, the operator turns on the control switch electrically connected to the controller. The controller receives the control signal from the control switch and, based on this signal, makes corresponding decisions and generates corresponding output signals to control the mixer.
[0066] Step S120: The controller controls the first lifting component and the motor to start working according to the control signal, so that the mixing container connected to the first lifting component moves longitudinally reciprocating relative to the motor under the drive of the first lifting component, and the mixture to be mixed in the mixing container is stirred by the stirring head driven by the motor.
[0067] Specifically, after receiving the control signal, the controller processes and analyzes the control signal, and makes corresponding decisions based on the control signal and the set target, generating corresponding output signals that are transmitted to the first lifting component and motor of the mixer. After receiving the output signal, the first lifting component and motor start working. The first lifting component drives the mixing container connected to it to perform longitudinal reciprocating motion relative to the motor. At the same time, the motor drives the stirring head connected to it to rotate at high speed. Since the stirring head extends into the mixing container, the high-speed rotating stirring head can stir the mixture to be mixed in the mixing container.
[0068] To better understand the technical solution of this application, an embodiment 1 is provided for illustration, with reference to... Figure 3 , Figure 12 In this embodiment, the mixer includes a motor 100, a stirring shaft 200, a mixing container 300, a first lifting component 400, a limiting component 10, a controller 500, a housing 600, and an L-shaped bracket 800. The controller 500 includes a circuit board 520 and a control switch 510. One end of the stirring shaft 200 is fixed to the rotating shaft of the motor 200, and the other end extends into the mixing container 300. The mixing container 300 is fixed to the first lifting component 400 by the limiting component 10. The housing 600 encloses... The system includes a U-shaped middle plate 610, a lower plate 620, an upper plate 630, a rear plate 640, and a column 650. A circuit board 520 is located inside the U-shaped middle plate 610 and is fixedly connected to both sides of the U-shaped middle plate 610. A control switch 510 is located on the outer surface of the U-shaped middle plate 610. A motor 100 is fixed to the column 650 of the chassis 600 by an L-shaped bracket 800. The U-shaped middle plate 610, lower plate 620, upper plate 630, rear plate 640, and column 650 are fixedly connected by bolts.
[0069] The stirring method described in this embodiment involves the controller receiving a control signal from the control switch when the control switch is turned on. Based on this signal, the controller activates the first lifting component and the motor. The first lifting component then undergoes longitudinal reciprocating motion, driving the connected mixing container to reciprocate longitudinally. Simultaneously, the motor shaft rotates at high speed, causing the stirring head, fixed to the motor shaft, to rotate at high speed. The stirring head, inserted into the mixing container, stirs the mixture. As the mixing container reciprocates longitudinally, the stirring head stirs the mixture repeatedly between the upper and lower layers. In this way, the denser components that sink to the bottom of the mixture are drawn to the upper layer, while the floating components... The lower-density mixture moves from the upper layer to the lower layer. This prevents the lower-density mixture from floating on top of the higher-density mixture when mixing two or more components with significantly different densities. This ensures uniform mixing of the two components. When the mixture is a two-component potting compound, this prevents the lower-density potting compound from floating on top of the higher-density potting compound, achieving uniform mixing of the two-component potting compound. This solves the technical problem in existing technologies where, when mixing two-component potting compounds with significantly different densities, the lower-density potting compound floats on top of the higher-density potting compound, leading to uneven mixing and reduced potting compound performance.
[0070] In some embodiments, based on Example 1, the stirring method further includes:
[0071] Step S130: The controller controls the second lifting component to start working according to the control signal, so that the motor installed on the second lifting component will perform longitudinal reciprocating motion under the drive of the second lifting component.
[0072] To better understand the technical solution of this embodiment, the following example is used for illustration. Based on Embodiment 1, further reference is made. Figure 7 and Figure 8 The mixer described in this embodiment also includes a second lifting component, which includes a rodless cylinder 900. The rodless cylinder 900 includes a cylinder body 910 and a slider 920. The cylinder body 910 is fixedly mounted on the rear plate 640 of the housing 600 by bolts. The slider 920 is provided with a second threaded hole 921. By passing a screw through the first mounting hole 810 and the third through hole 651 and screwing it into the second threaded hole 921, the L-shaped bracket 800 and the slider 920 can be fixed. Since the motor 100 is fixed on the L-shaped bracket 800, the motor 100 is fixedly connected to the slider 920 of the rodless cylinder 900 through the L-shaped bracket 800. The rodless cylinder 900 is electrically connected to the controller 500.
[0073] In the stirring method described in this embodiment, when the control switch is turned on, the controller receives the control signal sent by the control switch. The controller controls the second lifting component to start working according to the control signal. At this time, the slider of the rodless cylinder performs longitudinal reciprocating motion, thereby driving the L-shaped bracket screwed to the slider to perform longitudinal reciprocating motion, which in turn drives the motor to perform longitudinal reciprocating motion. In this way, the longitudinal height of the motor can be automatically adjusted. The stirring head is fixedly set on the motor shaft, thereby realizing the automatic adjustment of the longitudinal height of the stirring head. The longitudinal reciprocating motion of the stirring head, in conjunction with the longitudinal reciprocating motion of the mixing container, can improve the stirring effect of the material to be stirred in the mixing container.
[0074] In some embodiments, based on Embodiment 1, step S120 further includes the following steps before the following:
[0075] Step S140: The controller starts the second cylinder according to the control signal;
[0076] Step S150: The second cylinder squeezes the mixing container through the second limiting block, thereby fixing the mixing container to the base plate.
[0077] To better understand the technical solution of this embodiment, the following example is used for illustration: Based on Embodiment 1, further reference is made... Figure 9 The limiting component 10 includes a base plate 14, a second cylinder 13, a first limiting block 11, and a second limiting block 12. The second cylinder 13, the first limiting block 11, the mixing container 300, and the second limiting block 12 are arranged laterally on the upper surface of the base plate 14. The first limiting block 11 is provided with a first limiting groove 15, and the second limiting block 12 is provided with a second limiting groove 16. The shapes of the first limiting groove 15 and the second limiting groove 16 match the outer surface of the mixing container 300. The fixed end of the second cylinder 13 is fixed to the base plate 14, and the second limiting block 12 is fixed to the base plate 14 by screws. The limiting component 10 is located between the mixing container 300 and the first lifting member 400. The lower surface of the base plate 14 and the movable end of the first cylinder 410 are fixedly connected by screws. Through this structure, the limiting component 10 is fixedly set on the first lifting member 400. The second cylinder 13 is electrically connected to the controller 500.
[0078] The stirring method described in this embodiment involves the controller receiving a control signal from the control switch when the control switch is turned on. Based on this signal, the controller activates the second cylinder. The movable end of the second cylinder presses against the first limiting block, which in turn presses against the mixing container. This ensures that both the first and second limiting grooves of the first and second limiting blocks are tightly fitted against the outer surface of the mixing container, thus fixing the mixing container to the base plate and preventing it from moving during mixer operation. When it is necessary to remove the mixing container from the mixer, a control signal is sent to the controller. Upon receiving the signal, the controller shuts off the second cylinder, stopping the pressing against the first limiting block. The first limiting groove then leaves the outer surface of the mixing container, allowing it to be removed. Therefore, by controlling the limiting components, the controller allows the mixing container to be detachably mounted on the first lifting component. This facilitates the removal of the mixing container for cleaning.
[0079] In some embodiments, based on Embodiment 1, the step S110 is preceded by:
[0080] Step S160: The controller receives the start signal from the pressure sensor;
[0081] Step S170: The controller controls the pressure sensor to start according to the start signal, wherein the pressure sensor is used to monitor the pressure applied by the mixing container;
[0082] Step S180: The controller receives the pressure signal transmitted by the pressure sensor;
[0083] Step S190: The controller analyzes the pressure signal and displays the weight value corresponding to the pressure signal on the display.
[0084] To better understand the technical solution of this embodiment, the following example is used for illustration: Based on Embodiment 1, the mixer further includes a pressure sensor 60 and a display 70. The pressure sensor 60 is fixedly disposed between the first lifting member 400 and the mixing container 300, and both the pressure sensor 60 and the display 70 are electrically connected to the controller 500. When mixing a mixture, the mixing ratio of the mixture can sometimes have a significant impact on the performance of the mixture after mixing. A correct mixing ratio can not only ensure that the performance of the mixture after mixing meets expectations, but also avoid unnecessary waste and safety hazards. A pressure sensor is installed in the mixer. Before the mixer starts working, a start signal for the pressure sensor is sent to the controller 500 via the control switch 510. After receiving the start signal, the controller 500 analyzes it and generates a corresponding output signal based on the start signal, which is then transmitted to the pressure sensor 60 to control the start of the pressure sensor 60. The pressure sensor 60 is used to monitor the pressure applied by the mixing container 300. When the mixture to be added to the mixing container 300, the pressure sensor 60, located below the mixing container 300, generates a pressure signal after being subjected to pressure. The pressure sensor 60 transmits the pressure signal to the controller 500. After receiving the pressure signal transmitted by the pressure sensor 60, the controller 500 analyzes the pressure signal, converts the pressure signal into a weight value, and displays the weight value corresponding to the pressure signal on the display. In this way, the pressure sensor 60 can monitor the weight of the mixture to be mixed; by comparing the gravity value displayed on the display 70 with the preset value, the weight of the mixture to be mixed in the mixing container 300 can be determined, and the mixture to be mixed can be increased or decreased accordingly to make the mixture reach the preset value. This facilitates precise control of the weight of the mixture, ensuring that the mixture to be mixed can be mixed according to the correct weight ratio, so that the mixture can achieve the expected performance after mixing.
[0085] Based on the foregoing embodiments, before step S180, the method further includes:
[0086] Step S200: The controller opens the solenoid valve according to the start signal, so that the mixture to be mixed flows from the storage container through the solenoid valve and the feed pipe in sequence into the mixing container;
[0087] Step S190 is followed by:
[0088] Step S201: When the weight value reaches the preset value, the controller controls the solenoid valve to close, thereby stopping the mixture to be mixed from flowing out of the storage container.
[0089] To better understand the technical solution of this embodiment, the following example is used for illustration: (Continue to refer to...) Figure 3 , Figure 12Based on the foregoing embodiments, the mixer described in this embodiment further includes a discharge assembly 50. The discharge assembly 50 includes a storage container 51, a solenoid valve 52, and a feed pipe 53, which are longitudinally and fixedly connected in sequence. The storage container 51 is used to store the mixture to be mixed. A through hole is provided at the bottom of the storage container 51. The solenoid valve 52 is used to control the opening and closing of the through hole. When the solenoid valve 52 is open, the storage container 51, the solenoid valve 52, and the feed pipe 53 are connected. The mixture to be mixed in the storage container 51 flows out through the through hole at the bottom of the storage container 51, and flows through the solenoid valve 52 and the feed pipe 53 before flowing into the mixing container 300. The number of discharge assemblies 50 can be set as needed; the figure shows two. The solenoid valve 52 and the controller 500 are electrically connected.
[0090] The stirring method described in this embodiment, when the control switch is turned on, the controller receives the start signal and controls the pressure sensor and solenoid valve to open. At this time, the mixture to be mixed in the storage container flows out from the bottom of the storage container, and flows into the mixing container after passing through the solenoid valve and the feed pipe. The pressure sensor monitors the weight of the mixture to be mixed. When the weight of the mixture to be mixed reaches the preset value, the pressure sensor transmits a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the solenoid valve to close. The mixture to be mixed in the storage container then stops flowing out from the bottom of the storage container. In this way, automatic feeding of the mixer is achieved, making it more convenient to use.
