Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sampler technology, and in particular relates to a device for automatic sampling of diammonium phosphate products in finished product silos. Background Technology
[0002] Diammonium phosphate (DAP), as an important fertilizer, must meet national standards and user requirements for key quality indicators such as nutrient content, moisture content, and particle size. Precise sampling techniques are essential to ensure consistent quality across batches. Significant deviations during sampling could lead to substandard products entering the market, negatively impacting crop growth. Accurate sampling techniques accurately reflect product compliance, prompting manufacturers to strictly adhere to regulations, preventing substandard materials and mislabeling of nutrient content, maintaining industry stability, and ensuring farmers purchase fertilizers that meet standards. Furthermore, manual sampling is inefficient, susceptible to subjective judgment affecting test results, and does not adhere to random sampling principles. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an automated sampling device for DAP products within finished product silos. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0016] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0017] Example
[0018] like Figure 1 The device shown is for automatic sampling of diammonium phosphate products in a finished product silo. It includes a silo 1, a sleeve 13 inserted into the silo 1, a sampling ruler 3 inside the sleeve 13, the end of the sampling ruler 3 away from the silo 1 being fixedly connected to the drive shaft of a variable frequency motor 5, the end of the sleeve 13 away from the silo 1 being fixedly connected to the housing of the variable frequency motor 5, the top of the end of the sleeve 13 inside the silo 1 having an opening, a sampling ruler inlet 2 on the opening, and a sampling ruler outlet 4 at the bottom of the end of the sleeve 13 away from the silo 1, the sampling ruler outlet 4 communicating with the top of a sealed sample storage box 6.
[0019] Furthermore, the sleeve 13 is arranged parallel to the outlet of the hopper 1.
[0020] Furthermore, the outlet of the hopper 1 is connected to the weighing scale 9 of the packaging machine via the hopper discharge chute 8.
[0021] Furthermore, a material level and flow rate sensor 11 is provided at the bottom of one end of the sleeve 13 located inside the hopper 1, and a metering controller 14 is provided on the variable frequency motor 5. The material level and flow rate sensor 11 transmits the sensed data to the metering controller 14, and the metering controller 14 controls the rotation speed of the variable frequency motor 5.
[0022] Furthermore, the metering controller 14 also has a timing function, which controls the start and stop of the frequency converter motor 5 according to a preset time.
[0023] Furthermore, the bottom outlet of the sealed sample storage box 6 is connected to the side inlet of the packaging machine weighing scale 9 via the discharge pipe 7.
[0024] Furthermore, the bottom outlet of the sealed sample storage box 6 and the side inlet of the packaging machine weighing scale 9 are both equipped with movable gates 10.
[0025] Furthermore, the sealed sample storage box 6 is provided with a sampling port gate 12 on its side wall.
[0026] Furthermore, the material level and flow rate sensor 11 is a Swell microwave solid flow meter, and the metering controller 14 is a Siemens S7-1200 or Mitsubishi FX5U.
[0027] Furthermore, the sampling part of the sampling ruler 3 has a spiral structure that rotates around a central axis, which is connected to the drive shaft of the variable frequency motor 5.
[0028] The above-mentioned device is used as follows: The sampling time and interval are preset on the metering controller 14. When the sampling time arrives, the material in the hopper 1 falls into the packaging machine weighing scale 9 through the hopper discharge chute 8. The variable frequency motor 5 is started, and the speed is determined by the material flow rate detected by the material level flow rate sensor 11. Most of the material falls into the packaging machine weighing scale 9, and a small part of the material gathers on the sampling ruler inlet 2. When the variable frequency motor 5 starts, the sampling ruler 3 rotates in place to transport the material horizontally to the sampling ruler discharge port 4 and fall into the sealed sample storage box 6. The staff opens the sampling port gate 12 to take away the sample, and then opens the movable gate 10 to let the excess sample fall into the packaging machine weighing scale 9 for packaging, so that no material waste occurs.
