Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of buffer tank feeding technology, and in particular to a buffer tank feeding device. Background Technology
[0002] A buffer tank feeding device is an industrial equipment used for the storage, transportation, and precise supply of liquid materials. It is widely used in industries such as chemical, food, pharmaceutical, and building materials. Its core function is to temporarily store liquid materials in a buffer tank and then transport them to downstream production stages as needed via pumps, valves, and pipelines, ensuring the continuity and stability of the production process. Existing buffer tank feeding devices used in nut processing still have the following shortcomings: 1. The flow rate and volume of the supplied liquid materials are uncontrollable. During nut processing, the amount of liquid material needs to be manually controlled, resulting in low automation and low accuracy, thus affecting processing quality; 2. There is a lack of a structure for filtering the pumped liquid materials. If impurities are present in the liquid material and it is directly supplied to the processing area, it will still affect processing quality. In light of the above, this application proposes a buffer tank feeding device. Utility Model Content

[0029] Example 1
[0030] Reference Figure 1-3 A buffer tank feeding device includes a replenishing buffer mechanism 2 and a feeding buffer mechanism 3 installed on the top of a mounting base 1. The replenishing buffer mechanism 2 includes a replenishing buffer box 201 with an open top. A first weighing sensor 202 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting base 1.

[0032] Also includes:
[0033] A pumping mechanism is installed between the replenishment buffer tank 201 and the supply buffer tank 301. The pumping mechanism includes a second conveying pump 4 fixedly installed on the top of the mounting base 1. The extraction end and the discharge end of the second conveying pump 4 are both connected and fixedly connected to a second telescopic hose 401. The left end of the second telescopic hose 401 on the left side is connected and fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the replenishment buffer tank 201, and the right end of the second telescopic hose 401 on the right side is connected and fixedly connected to the bottom left side of the supply buffer tank 301. The second conveying pump 4 cooperates with the two second telescopic hoses 401 to pump the liquid material inside the replenishment buffer tank 201 into the supply buffer tank 301.
[0034] PLC controller 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the second conveying pump 4. PLC controller 5 is electrically connected to the solenoid valve, the second conveying pump 4, the first weighing sensor 202 and the second weighing sensor 302.
[0035] Two stirring mechanisms 7 are installed in the replenishment buffer tank 201 and the feeding buffer tank 301, respectively. Each stirring mechanism 7 includes a stirring rod 701, which is rotatably mounted on the bottom of its corresponding tank cover. A bearing hole is provided at the top of the tank cover, and a first sealed bearing is fixedly fitted inside the bearing hole. The inner side of the inner ring of the first sealed bearing is fixedly connected to the outer side of the corresponding stirring rod 701, thus allowing the stirring rod 701 to rotate. A drive motor 702 is fixedly connected to the top of the tank cover, and the bottom end of the output shaft of the drive motor 702 is fixedly connected to the top end of the corresponding stirring rod 701. Multiple stirring rods are fixedly connected to both sides of each stirring rod 701. The mixing blades 704 and multiple mixing blades 704 located on the right side of the same mixing rod 701 are fixedly connected to the right end of the same L-shaped scraper 703. The bottom inner wall of the L-shaped scraper 703 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the corresponding mixing rod 701. The bottom and right side of the two L-shaped scrapers 703 are in contact with the bottom inner wall and side wall of the replenishment buffer tank 201 and the feeding buffer tank 301, respectively. During the rotation, the L-shaped scraper 703 can scrape and clean the liquid material adhering to the inner wall of the replenishment buffer tank 201 and the feeding buffer tank 301. The mixing rod 701 and multiple mixing blades 704 work together to mix the liquid material and reduce the risk of liquid material sedimentation during the feeding process.
[0036] In this implementation scheme: Liquid materials are pre-buried in the replenishment buffer tank 201 and the supply buffer tank 301. First, the solenoid valve and the second delivery pump 4 are turned on, and the external liquid materials enter the replenishment buffer tank 201 through the solenoid valve. The second delivery pump 4 extracts the liquid materials inside the replenishment buffer tank 201 through the second telescopic hose 401 on the left side. The extracted liquid materials enter the supply buffer tank 301 through the second telescopic hose 401 on the right side. At the same time, the first weighing sensor 202 and the second weighing sensor 302 weigh the replenishment buffer tank 201 and the supply buffer tank 301 respectively, and transmit the weighed weight to the PLC controller 5. When the weight reaches the set value, the PLC controller 5 controls the solenoid valve and the second delivery pump 4 to close.
[0037] During the feeding process, the drive motor 702 is turned on, and the output shaft of the drive motor 702 drives the corresponding stirring rod 701 to rotate. The stirring rod 701 drives the corresponding multiple stirring blades 704 and L-shaped scrapers 703 to rotate. While the multiple stirring blades 704 rotate, they stir and mix the liquid material. At the same time, the two L-shaped scrapers 703 scrape and clean the liquid material adhering to the inner wall of the replenishment buffer tank 201 and the feeding buffer tank 301. By stirring the liquid material during the feeding process, the risk of liquid material sedimentation during the feeding process is reduced.
[0038] It should be noted that: the second transfer pump 4 is a Grundfos CR series centrifugal pump; the first weighing sensor 202 and the second weighing sensor 302 are strain gauge load cells, preferably model PW2C3H; the PLC controller 5 is preferably Siemens S7-1200; and the solenoid valve is preferably ASCO. The specific control principle of the solenoid valve in the Red Hat series is as follows: The PLC controller 5 first detects the weight of the replenishment buffer tank 201. If it is lower than the set lower limit, the solenoid valve is opened to feed the material, and the first weighing sensor 202 monitors the weight change in real time. When the replenishment buffer tank 201 reaches the set value, the PLC controller 5 closes the solenoid valve and starts the second delivery pump 4 to deliver the liquid material to the feeding buffer tank 301 through the second telescopic hose 401. At this time, the second weighing sensor 302 continuously monitors the weight of the feeding buffer tank. Once the feeding buffer tank 301 reaches the upper limit, the PLC controller 5 immediately stops the second delivery pump 4, completing one feeding cycle. The entire process is dynamically coordinated by the PLC controller 5 with the weighing data and the actuator to ensure accurate feeding. If an abnormal weight or equipment failure is detected, the PLC controller 5 will trigger an alarm and stop the machine to achieve safe closed-loop control. The specific control principle is existing technology in this field and will not be elaborated here.
[0039] Furthermore:
[0040] A buffer tank feeding device further includes a controllable feeding and conveying mechanism 6, which is installed on the right side of the mounting base 1;
[0041] The controllable feeding and conveying mechanism 6 includes a first conveying pump 601. A support base 610 is fixedly connected to the right side of the mounting base 1. The first conveying pump 601 is fixed to the top of the support base 610. A first telescopic hose is fixedly connected to the extraction end of the first conveying pump 601. The left end of the first telescopic hose is fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the feeding buffer tank 301. A flow valve 602 is fixedly connected to the discharge end of the first conveying pump 601. The flow valve 602 is used to measure the amount of liquid material flowing through it. A first connecting pipe head 604 is fixedly connected to the right side of the flow valve 602. The right end of the first connecting pipe head 604 is fixedly connected to a part fixed to the support base 610. A semi-circular box 603 is located at the top. A second connecting pipe head 609 is fixedly connected to the right side of the semi-circular box 603. A flow rate sensor 608 is fixedly connected to the right end of the second connecting pipe head 609. The flow rate sensor 608 is used to detect the flow rate of the liquid material flowing through it. An adjusting plate 605 is in movable contact with the right side of the top inner wall of the semi-circular box 603. The top of the adjusting plate 605 is covered with a sealing rubber, which is in movable contact with the inner wall of the semi-circular box 603. The sealing rubber achieves a seal between the semi-circular box 603 and the adjusting plate 605. The adjusting plate 605 cooperates with the left end of the second connecting pipe head 609. The adjusting plate 605 is used for... The size of the opening of the second connecting pipe head 609 is adjusted by obstruction. A rotating shaft 607 is rotatably installed between the front inner wall and the rear inner wall of the semicircular box 603. A second sealed bearing is fixedly connected to both the front inner wall and the rear inner wall of the semicircular box 603. The inner side of the inner ring of the second sealed bearing is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 607. The second sealed bearing serves to allow the rotating shaft 607 to rotate. The same connecting rod 606 is fixedly connected between the outer side of the rotating shaft 607 and the bottom of the adjusting plate 605. A brake motor 611 is fixedly connected to the front side of the semicircular box 603. The rear end of the output shaft of the brake motor 611 is connected to the front of the rotating shaft 607. The end is fixedly connected, and a movable hole is opened on the inner wall of the front side of the semi-circular box 603. The inner wall of the movable hole is in movable contact with the outer side of the output shaft of the brake motor 611. The brake motor 611 cooperates with the rotating shaft 607 and the connecting rod 606 to adjust the rotation of the adjusting plate 605. The first delivery pump 601, the flow valve 602, the flow rate sensor 608 and the brake motor 611 are all electrically connected to the PLC controller 5. The PLC controller 5 is used to receive data from the flow valve 602 and the flow rate sensor 608 to control the brake motor 611 and the first delivery pump 601. Its control principle is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.
[0042] Two indicator lights 8 are fixed and electrically connected to the top of the PLC controller 5. The indicator light 8 on the left is red and the indicator light 8 on the right is green. The indicator lights 8 are used to display and remind users of the working status of the controllable feeding and conveying mechanism 6.
[0043] In this implementation scheme: During material feeding, the first conveying pump 601 is turned on. The first conveying pump 601 conveys the liquid material inside the material feeding buffer tank 301 through the first telescopic hose. The conveyed liquid material is discharged into the external feeding pipe through the flow valve 602, the first connecting pipe head 604, the semi-circular box 603, the second connecting pipe head 609, and the flow rate sensor 608 in sequence. The flow rate sensor 608 and the flow valve 602 detect the flow rate and flow velocity of the liquid material, respectively. When the flow rate is low, the PLC controller 5 controls the holding brake motor. When 611 is turned on in the forward direction, the output shaft of the brake motor 611 drives the rotating shaft 607 to rotate. The rotating shaft 607 drives the adjusting plate 605 to rotate to the right through the connecting rod 606, gradually blocking part of the flow port of the second connecting pipe head 609. By blocking the flow port, the cross-sectional area of the liquid material can be reduced, so that its flow rate gradually increases. When the flow rate sensor 608 detects that the flow rate has reached the set value, the PLC controller 5 controls the brake motor 611 to close, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the flow rate according to the material supply requirements.
[0044] In addition, during the operation of the first conveying pump 601, the PLC controller 5 controls the indicator light 8 on the left to turn red, and when the first conveying pump 601 stops working, the PLC controller 5 controls the indicator light 8 on the right to turn green, so as to remind the personnel of the material supply status by lighting the light.
[0045] It should be noted that: the first transfer pump 601 can preferably be a Grundfos CRE series centrifugal pump, the flow valve 602 can preferably be a Siemens 2WP series flow valve, the flow velocity sensor 608 can preferably be an IFM SM9000 series turbine flow meter, and the brake motor 611 can preferably be a Dongfang Electric PKP series motor. The specific control principle is as follows: the flow valve 602 detects the flow in real time and feeds it back to the PLC controller 5 through a 4-20mA signal. The PLC controller 5 compares the set value with the actual value and controls the first transfer pump 601 through a PID algorithm. At the same time, the flow velocity sensor 608 outputs an analog signal to the PLC controller 5. The PLC controller 5 controls the brake motor 611 to move according to the set threshold. The PLC controller 5 sends a pulse signal to control the rotation angle of the brake motor 611 and drive the regulating plate 605. The specific control principle is existing technology and will not be elaborated on here.
[0046] Working principle: In use, the solenoid valve is pre-connected to the external liquid material supply pipe. The opening and closing weights of the second conveying pump 4 and the solenoid valve are pre-set via the PLC controller 5. Simultaneously, the flow rates of the first conveying pump 601 and the flow velocity of the brake motor 611 are also pre-set. After setting, the liquid material is pre-buried in the replenishment buffer tank 201 and the supply buffer tank 301. First, the solenoid valve and the second conveying pump 4 are opened, and the external liquid material enters the replenishment buffer tank 201 through the solenoid valve. Inside 01, the second delivery pump 4 extracts liquid material from the replenishment buffer tank 201 through the second telescopic hose 401 on the left. The extracted liquid material enters the feeding buffer tank 301 through the second telescopic hose 401 on the right. At the same time, the first weighing sensor 202 and the second weighing sensor 302 weigh the replenishment buffer tank 201 and the feeding buffer tank 301 respectively, and transmit the weighed weight to the PLC controller 5. When the weight reaches the set value, the PLC controller 5 controls the solenoid valve and the second delivery pump 4 to close.
[0047] When feeding liquid materials, the discharge end of the flow rate sensor 608 needs to be connected to the external feeding pipe. The flow rate and volume of the liquid material are preset according to the feeding requirements via the PLC controller 5. During feeding, the first conveying pump 601 is turned on, and it conveys the liquid material inside the feeding buffer tank 301 through the first telescopic hose. The conveyed liquid material passes sequentially through the flow valve 602, the first connecting pipe head 604, the semi-circular box 603, the second connecting pipe head 609, and the flow rate sensor 608 before being discharged into the external feeding pipe. The flow rate sensor 608 and the flow valve 602 detect the flow rate and volume of the liquid material, respectively. When the flow rate is low, according to the formula V=Q / A, with the flow rate Q remaining constant, the cross-sectional area A through which the liquid material flows can be reduced to increase the flow rate v. When reducing the cross-sectional area, the PLC controller 5 controls the brake. When motor 611 is turned on in the forward direction, the output shaft of the brake motor 611 drives the rotating shaft 607 to rotate. The rotating shaft 607 drives the adjusting plate 605 to rotate to the right through the connecting rod 606. As the adjusting plate 605 rotates, it gradually blocks part of the flow port of the second connecting pipe head 609. By blocking the flow port, the cross-sectional area of the liquid material can be reduced. As the cross-sectional area decreases, the flow rate gradually increases. When the flow rate sensor 608 detects that the flow rate has reached the set value, the PLC controller 5 controls the brake motor 611 to turn off, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the flow rate according to the material supply needs. When the amount of liquid material supplied reaches the set value, the PLC controller 5 also controls the first conveying pump 601 to turn off, thereby completing the purpose of automatic quantitative and constant flow rate material supply. Compared with manual control, this automatic control method has significantly improved accuracy, thereby reducing the impact on processing quality.
[0048] Furthermore, during the operation of the first conveying pump 601, the PLC controller 5 controls the indicator light 8 on the left to turn red, and when the first conveying pump 601 stops working, the PLC controller 5 controls the indicator light 8 on the right to turn green, thereby reminding personnel of the material supply status.
[0049] Example 2
[0050] Reference Figure 4-5 This embodiment is based on Embodiment 1, but differs from Embodiment 1 in that a filter mechanism 9 is installed between the discharge end of the first delivery pump 601 and the flow valve 602.
[0051] The filtration mechanism 9 includes a U-shaped frame 901 fixedly installed on the top of the support base 610. An L-shaped filter screen 902 is movably fitted inside the U-shaped frame 901. The L-shaped filter screen 902 is used to filter impurities in liquid materials. A sealing cover 903 is threadedly fixed to the top of the U-shaped frame 901. A U-shaped handle is fixedly connected to the top of the sealing cover 903. The top of the L-shaped filter screen 902 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sealing cover 903. The discharge end of the first delivery pump 601 and the flow valve 602 are both connected and fixedly connected to the interior of the U-shaped frame 901. Bolt holes are opened on both sides of the top of the U-shaped frame 901. T-shaped fixing bolts 904 are threadedly fitted inside the bolt holes. Through holes are opened on both sides of the top of the sealing cover 903. The inner wall of the through hole is in movable contact with the outer side of the corresponding T-shaped fixing bolt 904. The T-shaped fixing bolt 904 is used to fix the sealing cover 903.
[0052] The usage method of this embodiment is as follows: Unlike Embodiment 1, it also has the following functions: The liquid material discharged from the first delivery pump 601 enters the U-shaped frame 901 beforehand. The liquid material passes through the L-shaped filter screen 902 inside the U-shaped frame 901 and then enters the flow valve 602. The L-shaped filter screen 902 filters impurities in the flowing liquid material. The filtered impurities are blocked inside the L-shaped filter screen 902. By pre-filtering the supplied liquid material, the entry of impurities into the processing area can be effectively reduced, thus reducing the impact on processing quality. When the indicator light 8 on the right side is green, it indicates that the first delivery pump 601 is in a stopped state. Personnel can loosen the fixing of the sealing cover 903 by rotating the T-shaped fixing bolt 904.
