Detailed Implementation
[0037] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0038] Example 1:
[0039] This embodiment provides a purging and cleaning device for a powder dispersion test chamber, which can effectively clean and collect the powder medium after the experiment.
[0040] The powder dispersion test chamber includes a test chamber body 1 and a test chamber top cover 6 disposed on the top of the test chamber body 1; wherein the test chamber body 1 is supported on a bottom support 10.
[0041] The purging and cleaning device is installed on the test chamber 1 and is used to purge and clean different parts inside the test chamber 1.
[0042] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the purging and cleaning device includes an air inlet pipe (usually a flexible hose, not shown in the figure), an air distribution pipe 21, and an airflow nozzle 24 (such as a hood); the air distribution pipe 21 is supported on the inner wall of the test chamber 1; one end of the air distribution pipe 21 extends out of the test chamber 1 and connects to the air inlet pipe, and the position where the air distribution pipe 21 extends out of the test chamber 1 is sealed for airflow; the air inlet pipe is connected to an air compressor to provide compressed air (i.e., the air distribution pipe 21 is connected to the air compressor through the air inlet pipe). Figure 4 As shown, each air distribution duct 21 is equipped with several airflow nozzles 24, which are connected to the air distribution duct 21 and the air outlet of the airflow nozzles 24 faces the inner wall of the test chamber 1.
[0043] Each inner wall surface of the test chamber 1 shall be provided with at least one air distribution duct 21.
[0044] As an example, all the air inlets in this purging and cleaning device are connected to the same air compressor via a multi-port connector.
[0045] The air compressor supplies compressed air to each air distribution duct 21 through the air inlet pipe. The compressed air in the air distribution duct 21 is blown out by the airflow nozzle 24 to form a positive pressure airflow toward the inner wall of the test chamber 1, which blows away the residual powder adsorbed on the inner wall of the test chamber 1.
[0046] This purging and cleaning device can purge and clean the residual powder adsorbed on the inner wall of the test chamber 1, achieving rapid and efficient cleaning of flue gas and powder particles inside the test chamber 1 after the test.
[0047] Example 2:
[0048] Based on the above embodiment 1 or embodiment 2, the further air distribution duct 21 can rotate 360° around its own axis to achieve efficient cleaning of the inner wall of the box.
[0049] Specifically: Both ends of the air distribution duct 21 are rotatably supported (e.g., by bearings) on the test chamber body 1, and one end extends out of the test chamber body 1 and connects to the air inlet duct. The air distribution duct 21 is connected to the air inlet duct at this connection point by a dynamic seal (rotary dynamic seal) (when the air distribution duct 21 rotates around its own axis, the air inlet duct does not rotate).
[0050] The other end of the air distribution duct 21 extends out of the test chamber body 1 and is connected to a power unit (such as a rotary motor) to drive the air distribution duct 21 to rotate 360° around its own axis. As an example, the power unit is supported on the outer wall of the test chamber body 1 by a support plate.
[0051] Example 3:
[0052] Based on the above embodiment 1 or embodiment 2, this embodiment provides a specific arrangement of the air distribution duct 21.
[0053] Several air distribution pipes 21 are distributed at different heights on the test chamber 1 to blow and clean different parts inside the test chamber 1.
[0054] As an example, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, in this example, the test chamber 1 has a front cover plate 11, a rear cover plate 8, and two side plates 9 on the left and right sides, wherein the side plates 9 are machined with optical test windows 5.
[0055] For ease of description, let the length of the test chamber body 1 be the Y-direction (i.e., the normal direction of the side panel 9), and the width be the X-direction (i.e., the normal direction of the front and rear cover panels), as follows: Figure 3 As shown.
[0056] In this example, the test chamber 1 has six air distribution ducts 21 inside. Each side panel 9 corresponds to two air distribution ducts 21 arranged along the X direction. Each air distribution duct 21 arranged along the X direction has several airflow nozzles 24 distributed at intervals along the X direction for purging the inner wall of the corresponding side panel 9. Figure 2 As shown, two air distribution pipes 21 arranged along the X direction, corresponding to the inner wall of each side plate 9, are located at the upper and lower parts of the optical test window 5 on the corresponding inner wall, respectively.
[0057] The inner wall of the rear cover plate 8 corresponds to a Y-direction air distribution duct 21, and the inner wall of the front cover plate 11 corresponds to a Y-direction air distribution duct 21; each Y-direction air distribution duct 21 has several airflow nozzles 24 spaced apart along the Y direction for purging the inner wall of the rear cover plate 8 or the front cover plate 11.
[0058] As an example, both the air inlet duct 22 and the air distribution duct 21 are made of stainless steel.
[0059] As an example, the distance between the air distribution duct 21 and the inner wall of the corresponding test chamber 1 is 100 mm.
[0060] As an example, such as Figure 4 As shown, each airflow nozzle mounting position on the air distribution duct 21 is provided with two airflow nozzles 24. One airflow nozzle 24 faces the inner wall surface of the corresponding test chamber 1, and the other airflow nozzle 24 faces the inner bottom surface of the test chamber 1.
[0061] As an example, the middle part of the air distribution duct 21 (the position between the two ends) is also supported on the inner wall of the test chamber 1 by a support rod 23 to improve its stability.
[0062] Example 4:
[0063] This embodiment provides a specific method for installing a power unit on the air distribution duct 21 in the above embodiment 3.
[0064] In this example, the six air distribution ducts 21 are divided into three groups. The two X-direction air distribution ducts 21 located at the top of the left and right side plates 9 are located on the same horizontal plane and form the first group of air distribution ducts. The two X-direction air distribution ducts 21 located at the bottom are located on the same horizontal plane and form the second group of air distribution ducts. The two air distribution ducts 21 arranged along the Y direction are located on the same horizontal plane and form the third group of air distribution ducts. Each group of two air distribution ducts 21 corresponds to one power unit, that is, one power unit drives two air distribution ducts 21 to rotate simultaneously.
[0065] This can be understood as follows: in this example, two air distribution ducts located on the same horizontal plane and in the same direction are driven by a single power unit as a group.
[0066] In this example, the power unit includes: a motor 26, a drive shaft 22, and two drive reversing units 25; the motor 26 is located at one end of the drive shaft 22 and is used to drive the drive shaft 22 to rotate around its own axis; wherein the drive shaft 22 in the power unit corresponding to the first group of air distribution pipes and the second group of air distribution pipes is arranged along the Y direction, and the drive shaft 22 in the power unit corresponding to the third group of air distribution pipes is arranged along the X direction.
[0067] A transmission reversing unit 25 is installed on the drive shaft 22 at a position corresponding to each of the two air distribution ducts 21 in the corresponding group, so as to realize the reversal of the transmission and drive the corresponding air distribution duct 21 to rotate around its own axis. Thus, when the motor 26 drives, it drives the two air distribution ducts 21 to rotate through the drive shaft 22 and the transmission reversing unit 25.
[0068] As an example, the transmission reversing unit 25 adopts a gear reversing transmission mechanism, such as reversing through two meshing bevel gears. In this case, a bevel gear A is arranged on the transmission shaft 22 at a position corresponding to the two air distribution pipes 21 in the corresponding group, and the air distribution pipe 21 is connected to the gear shaft of the bevel gear B that meshes with the bevel gear A.
[0069] Example 5:
[0070] Based on the above embodiments 1, 2, 3 or 4, in order to clean the optical test window 5 on the side panel 9 of the test chamber 1, the purging and cleaning device is further provided with a surrounding airflow branch 12 for cleaning the optical test window 5.
[0071] The surrounding airflow branch 12 corresponds one-to-one with the optical test window 5 on the side plate 9, that is, a surrounding airflow branch 12 is set for each optical test window 5 to clean the optical glass of the optical test window 5. In this example, each side plate 9 is provided with three optical test windows 5, and the optical test windows 5 on two side plates 9 that are coaxial form a group.
[0072] like Figure 5 As shown, the surrounding airflow branch 12 is led out by an airflow branch pipe B123 supported inside the test chamber 1. After extending out of the test chamber 1, the airflow branch pipe B123 is connected to the air compressor via an air inlet hose. The airflow branch pipe B123 can be a gas pipeline arranged along the X direction and set separately inside the test chamber 1, or it can be the air distribution pipe 21 arranged along the X direction and set above the optical test window 5 in the above embodiment 3 (i.e., the surrounding airflow branch 12 is directly led out from the air distribution pipe 21 arranged along the X direction). It is worth noting that the air distribution pipe 21 with the surrounding airflow branch 12 does not have the function of rotating 360° around its own axis.
[0073] The surrounding airflow branch 12 includes: an airflow branch pipe A121 connected to the airflow branch pipe B123, and an annular pipe 122 connected to the airflow branch pipe A121; a plurality of airflow nozzles 24 are arranged circumferentially on the annular pipe 122, and the airflow nozzles 24 are connected to the annular pipe 122.
[0074] As an example, the diameter of the annular tube 122 is larger than the diameter of the optical test window 5, without affecting the optical path of the optical test window 5. Therefore, during the experiment, the surrounding airflow branch 12 can also be activated to protect the optical test window 5 from airflow, preventing powder materials from adsorbing on the optical test window 5 during the experiment and affecting the accuracy of the experiment.
[0075] As an example, the airflow branch pipe A121 is an electrically telescopic pipe that can be controlled to extend and retract by an external control unit. Thus, when the test chamber is conducting a test, the airflow branch pipe A121 can be controlled not to extend. When purging and cleaning are required, the airflow branch pipe A121 is controlled to extend, so that the airflow nozzles 24 on the annular pipe 122 face the optical test window 5. After airflow is introduced into the airflow branch pipe B123, the airflow is led out by the surrounding airflow branch 12 to the annular pipe 122. The cleaning function of the optical window is achieved through the airflow nozzles 24 arranged around the optical test window 5 on the annular pipe 122.
[0076] This positive pressure airflow cleaning device has functions of powder cleaning and window cleaning protection, and can meet the cleaning rate of more than 90% for powder particles.
[0077] Example 6:
[0078] Based on the above embodiments 1, 2, 3 or 4, in order to clean the optical test window 5 on the side panel 9 of the test chamber 1, the purging and cleaning device is further equipped with an airflow spray gun for cleaning the optical test window 5.
[0079] The airflow spray gun is connected to an air compressor. After the test, the airflow spray gun is inserted into the test chamber 1 (the test chamber 1 is equipped with a door) to clean the optical test window 5. As an example, the airflow spray gun is a telescopic airflow spray gun.
[0080] Example 7:
[0081] This embodiment provides a dust removal system for a powder dispersion test chamber, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the dust removal system includes the blowing and cleaning device 2 described in embodiments 1-6 above, and also includes an exhaust dust removal unit 3 installed at the exhaust port of the test chamber top cover 6. The exhaust dust removal unit 3 includes an exhaust pipe installed at the exhaust port of the test chamber top cover 6 and an exhaust fan connected to the exhaust pipe.
[0082] After each test, the purging and cleaning device 2 is activated to purge and clean the residual powder adsorbed on the inner wall and windows of the test chamber 1. Then, in conjunction with the exhaust and dust removal unit 3, the exhaust fan extracts the flue gas and powder particles from the test chamber 1 after the test, achieving rapid and efficient cleaning of the test chamber.
[0083] As an example, the bottom surface of the test chamber 1 is also equipped with a fan 4 for powder stirring and dispersion. The fan 4 can also be used for dust removal. That is, when cleaning the test chamber 1, the blowing and cleaning device and the fan 4 are started, in conjunction with the exhaust dust removal unit 3.
[0084] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, some modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
