Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of powder loading technology, specifically to a powder loading device. Background Technology
[0002] Powdered materials have characteristics such as particle dispersion and easy dust generation. When packaging powdered materials into trays, the conventional method is to have multiple people working together. Some people are responsible for weighing the materials, some are responsible for loading the materials, and some are responsible for post-processing. Sometimes, a special person is needed to weigh the materials a second time to ensure the accuracy of the tray loading. This process has low tray loading efficiency and high labor costs.
[0003] To increase the efficiency of powder loading, a loading machine for powder loading has been developed. This type of loading machine allows the powder to slide from the hopper assembly into a powder tray located below the hopper assembly, eliminating the tedious manual operation, and the upper surface of the powder pile is leveled by a scraper.
[0004] However, this method of leveling still has its drawbacks. When the powder slides into the powder tray, the powder pile can be roughly regarded as a cone shape, that is, the protruding part is located in the middle of the powder tray. When leveling, the protruding part of the powder will be pushed to one side, making the upper surface of the powder on that side flat. On the opposite side, there will be a recessed area that is not filled by powder. When there is a lot of powder in the protruding part, after one side of the powder tray is filled during the leveling operation, the remaining powder will be pushed to the area outside the powder tray by the action of the leveling mechanism. Therefore, a powder loading device is proposed to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] Based on the above description, this utility model provides a powder loading device to solve the problem that the surface of the powder is not smooth enough during the assembly process of existing loading machines.

[0034] Please see Figures 1-5 A powder loading device includes: a roller conveyor 1 and a loading mechanism;
[0035] The loading mechanism includes a hopper assembly, a material cylinder 4, and a leveling mechanism 6. The hopper assembly is mounted above the roller conveyor 1 via a first upright frame 2, and the hopper assembly is mounted above the material cylinder 4. The discharge port of the hopper assembly is connected to the inlet of the material cylinder 4. A leveling mechanism extending into the interior of the material cylinder 4 is mounted on the side of the material cylinder 4.
[0036] A feeding platform 43 is provided on the lower surface inside the material cylinder 4, and the feeding platform 43 is located between the scraping mechanism and the feeding port 42 of the material cylinder 4.
[0037] Based on the above, the arrangement of the hopper assembly, the cylinder 4 and the leveling mechanism allows the powder inside the hopper assembly to slide down into the cylinder 4 under the action of gravity and accumulate on the surface of the discharge platform 43. At this time, the leveling mechanism pushes the powder pile into the powder pan located inside the discharge port 42.
[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, a lifting platform 3 is provided below the roller conveyor 1. The lifting platform 3 includes a movable plate 33 located below the lifting platform 3. A first cylinder 32 is provided below the movable plate 33. The output shaft of the first cylinder 32 is connected to the lower surface of the movable plate 33. A base frame 31 is provided at the bottom end of the first cylinder 32. A support frame 34 is provided at the top of the movable plate 33. The support frame 34 passes through the roller conveyor 1 and the first opening 22 from bottom to top and extends into the interior of the discharge port 42.
[0039] Based on the above, the lifting platform 3 plays the role of lifting the powder tray. When the roller conveyor 1 transports the powder tray to the position of the lifting platform 3, the first cylinder 32 drives the movable plate 33 and the support frame 34 to move upward, thereby raising the powder tray located on the upper surface of the support frame 34 to the inside of the discharge port 42, preparing for the action of pushing the powder into the powder tray.
[0040] like Figures 3-5 As shown, the first support frame 2 includes a first main frame body 21, and the upper surface of the first main frame body 21 is provided with a first opening 22. The roller conveyor 1 passes through the interior of the first main frame body 21 and is located below the first opening 22.
[0041] The material cylinder 4 includes a cylinder 41 disposed on the upper surface of the first main frame 21. The upper and lower surfaces of the cylinder 41 are respectively provided with a feeding opening 44 and a discharging opening 42. A scraping mechanism 6 is provided on the side of the cylinder 41. A feeding platform 43 is provided on the lower surface of the cylinder 41 between the discharging opening 42 and the scraping mechanism 6. The feeding platform 43 is located directly below the feeding opening 44.
[0042] The upper surface of the first main frame 21 is provided with a second upright 5 extending above the material cylinder 4. The upper surface of the second upright 5 is provided with a first hopper 7 penetrating the upper surface. The bottom end of the first hopper 7 is provided with a second hopper 8 penetrating the feed opening 44 and extending into the inside of the cylinder 41.
[0043] As shown in the figure Figure 8As shown, the second hopper 8 includes a hopper body 81 extending into the cylinder 41 and communicating with the first hopper 7. A discharge port 82 is provided on the bottom end of the hopper body 81 facing the discharge port 42. A second cylinder 83 is provided on the side of the hopper body 81. A sealing member 84 is provided at the output shaft of the second cylinder 83. The discharge port 82 is located on the movement path of the sealing member 84.
[0044] Based on the above, the first upright 2 serves to support the material cylinder 4 and the second upright 5. The powder inside the first hopper 7 slides down to the second hopper 8 under the action of gravity. By controlling the second cylinder 83, the sealing part 84 can block the discharge port 82. When the discharge port 82 is blocked, the powder cannot slide down. Conversely, when the second cylinder 83 drives the sealing part 84 to move, the discharge port 82 is opened, and the powder slides down along the discharge port 82 onto the discharge platform 43 to accumulate and form a powder pile.
[0045] like Figures 3-5 as well as Figure 7 As shown, the leveling mechanism 6 includes a housing 61, which is disposed on the side of the cylinder 41. Inside the housing 61, there is a long-process cylinder 62 with its output end penetrating through the cylinder 41 and extending into the interior of the cylinder 41. A scraper 63 is disposed at the output end of the long-process cylinder 62. A guide rod 64 is disposed on the side of the scraper 63 facing the long-process cylinder 62, and the guide rod 64 extends into the interior of the housing 61.
[0046] Based on the above, the leveling mechanism 6 plays the role of pushing the powder pile into the powder tray, and after the powder pile enters the powder tray, the leveling mechanism 6 keeps its surface flat. The whole process is driven by the long-process cylinder 62 to drive the scraper 63 to move, and the scraper 63 pushes the powder pile to move and performs the leveling operation.
[0047] In summary, the powder loading mechanism uses a lifting platform 3 to transport the powder tray to a fixed position via the roller conveyor 1. The powder tray is then lifted upwards to the inside of the discharge port 42. At this time, the powder in the hopper assembly slides down and accumulates on the discharge platform 43. Under the action of the leveling mechanism 6, the powder is pushed into the powder tray. That is, the powder is first piled up and then pushed into the powder tray. During the pushing process, the scraper 63 performs a leveling operation. After the powder is loaded into the tray, the lifting platform 3 descends and is transported out by the roller conveyor 1.
[0048] The above process can prevent the problem of some areas being sunken when the powder is loaded onto the tray.
[0049] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. 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.
