Detailed Implementation

[0022] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the relevant utility model and not intended to limit the scope of the utility model. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0023] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0025] Specifically, it refers to a clog-resistant vacuum pneumatic feeding system, including a vacuum conveying pipe 1. The rear end of the vacuum conveying pipe 1 is connected to the feeding port of the feeding equipment. A spiral guide vane 2 is installed inside the front end of the vacuum conveying pipe 1. The outer surface of the spiral guide vane 2 is in contact with the inner wall of the vacuum conveying pipe 1. The inclination angle of the spiral guide vane 2 is 15°-30°. In use, the spiral guide vane 2 can generate a forced rotating airflow in the vacuum conveying pipe 1. The centrifugal force generated by the swirling flow can "throw" particles that were originally settling near the bottom or wall of the pipe towards the central area of ​​the pipe, so that they are resuspended in the high-speed airflow. This helps to break up any possible sediment layers or clusters, so that the material is more evenly dispersed in the airflow, reducing pipe wall friction and the risk of local blockage, thereby improving the conveying concentration and speed.

[0026] Furthermore, the outer surface of the spiral guide vane 2 is provided with a silicon carbide wear-resistant coating 3, which improves the service life of the spiral guide vane 2.

[0027] In this embodiment, if the vacuum delivery pipe 1 has a curved section, the spiral guide vane 2 can be set at the curved section of the vacuum delivery pipe 1, which helps to reduce deposition, adhesion and blockage, thereby improving the flow conditions in a specific section to a certain extent.

[0028] A semi-circular mounting ring 4 is provided on the rear side of the vacuum delivery tube 1. A mounting groove 5 communicating with the rear side of the vacuum delivery tube 1 is provided, and the mounting groove 5 is adapted to the semi-circular mounting ring 4. The semi-circular mounting ring 4 and the mounting groove 5 are fixed together by bolts. In use, the semi-circular mounting ring 4 is inserted into the mounting groove 5 and fits into it, with its outer surface flush with the outer surface of the vacuum delivery tube 1. Then, the semi-circular mounting ring 4 is fixed in the mounting groove 5 with bolts to prevent loosening. An embedded ring 6 is provided in the inner ring. The outer surface of the embedded ring 6 is in contact with the inner wall of the vacuum conveying pipe 1. When the semi-circular mounting ring 4 is installed in the mounting groove 5, the embedded ring 6 is inserted into the vacuum conveying pipe 1 and is in contact with the inner wall of the vacuum conveying pipe 1. The inner ring of the embedded ring 6 is provided with a filter screen structure that can move back and forth. In use, since the embedded ring 6 is located on the side of the vacuum conveying pipe 1 close to the feeding equipment, the raw materials entering the vacuum conveying pipe 1 can be screened by controlling the back and forth movement of the filter screen structure. The screened raw materials are then conveyed to the processing equipment by the airflow.

[0029] In this embodiment, sealing rubber gaskets are provided on the surfaces of the semicircular mounting ring 4 and the mounting groove 5 that are in contact with each other, as well as on the outer surface of the embedded ring 6. This increases the sealing between the semicircular mounting ring 4 and the mounting groove 5, and between the embedded ring 6 and the inner wall of the vacuum delivery pipe 1, thus minimizing the risk of leakage during use.

[0030] The filter structure includes an inner ring 7, which is located in the inner ring of an embedded ring 6. A filter screen 8 is provided in the inner ring of the inner ring 7. A sliding groove 9 is provided on the inner ring of the embedded ring 6. The outer side of the inner ring 7 extends into the sliding groove 9, and its upper and lower sides slide on the inner walls of the upper and lower sides of the sliding groove 9. A transmission cavity 10 communicating with the sliding groove 9 is provided in the semi-circular mounting ring 4. A push plate 11 is provided on the surface of the inner ring 7 facing the transmission cavity 10. The other side of the push plate 11 extends into the transmission cavity 10. A rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the transmission cavity 10. A rotating disk 17 is provided at the upper end of the rotating shaft 12. T-shaped shafts 13 are provided on the upper surface of the rotating disk 17 and the lower side of the push plate 11. A rotating plate 14 is rotatably sleeved between the two T-shaped shafts 13. The T-shaped shafts 13 on the rotating disk 17 are located at the eccentric position of the rotating disk 17.

[0031] When in use, the rotating shaft 12 is controlled to rotate, and the rotating disk 17 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 12. At this time, the T-shaped shaft 13 on the rotating disk 17 will exert a pushing or pulling force on the rotating plate 14, and the pushing plate 11 will drive the built-in ring 7 to move back and forth slightly in the sliding groove 9. The filter screen 8 moves synchronously with the built-in ring 7.

[0032] The pore size of the filter screen 8 is larger than the particle size of the conveyed raw material. During use, the filter screen 8 blocks the agglomerated parts of the raw material. At the same time, due to the back-and-forth movement of the filter screen 8, the filter screen 8 can form a screening effect on the agglomerated raw material, so that the agglomerated raw material is separated, reducing the problem of blockage during conveying in the vacuum conveying pipe 1. At the same time, it can also achieve the screening effect of the raw material, further ensuring the use effect of the raw material.

[0033] A motor 15 is mounted on the outer surface of the semi-circular mounting ring 4. One end of the output shaft of the motor 15 rotates through the transmission cavity 10. A bevel gear 16 is mounted on the end of the output shaft of the motor 15 located in the transmission cavity 10. A bevel gear 16 is also mounted on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 12. The two bevel gears 16 mesh with each other. When in use, the motor 15 starts, and the output shaft of the motor 15 can synchronously drive the bevel gear 16 to rotate. The rotating shaft 12 rotates synchronously under the meshing transmission of the two bevel gears 16.

[0034] In this embodiment, the sliding distance of the built-in ring 7 in the sliding groove 9 is relatively short, and one side of the built-in ring 7 will not slide to the inner ring of the embedded ring 6. Therefore, during use, the outer surface of the built-in ring 7 is always in the sliding groove 9, and the material will not flow directly through the gap between the outer surface of the built-in ring 7 and the inner ring of the embedded ring 6 during conveying.

[0035] Please see Figure 6 Based on the above scheme, this utility model designs a new technical solution: an intelligent control device, including a variable frequency air compressor connected to the vacuum delivery pipe 1, a PLC controller for controlling the variable frequency air compressor, and a pressure sensor installed in the vacuum delivery pipe 1. The pressure sensor is connected to the PLC controller, and the PLC controller is electrically connected to the variable frequency air compressor. In use, according to the pressure change in the vacuum delivery pipe 1, the PLC controller can control the negative pressure intensity of the variable frequency air compressor in the vacuum delivery pipe 1 in real time to realize adaptive pressure adjustment.

[0036] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and an explanation of the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the utility model involved in this application is not limited to the technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-described technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-described technical features or their equivalents without departing from the inventive concept. For example, technical solutions formed by substituting the above-described features with (but not limited to) technical features with similar functions disclosed in this application.
