Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sample processing equipment technology, specifically to a pneumatic receiving module and collection device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, pretreatment equipment typically requires the addition of pneumatic transmission pipelines based on the customer's actual needs, and integrates a pneumatic receiving module within the equipment. However, existing pretreatment equipment is already in mass production, with a compact internal structure and high space utilization, making it difficult to add extra structures to accommodate the installation of the pneumatic receiving module. Moreover, adding a pneumatic receiving module would require increasing the overall volume of the equipment, leading to increased costs and internal space redundancy. Therefore, existing pretreatment equipment cannot meet customers' new functional requirements at a low cost.

[0003] Therefore, existing technologies need further development. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and provide a pneumatic receiving module and collection device to solve the technical problem that the pre-processing equipment in the related technology cannot add a pneumatic receiving module due to its compact internal structure.

[0005] To achieve the above technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a pneumatic receiving module is provided, which is installed outside the collection device. The pneumatic receiving module includes: a receiving port connected to a pneumatic transmission pipeline; a transmission channel extending along a first preset direction and connected to the receiving port, at least a portion of which is located outside the collection device; and a receiving chamber located at the end of the transmission channel away from the receiving port and connected to the transmission channel. The receiving chamber is used to temporarily store materials, and at least a portion of which is located inside the collection device.

[0006] Furthermore, the transmission channel includes a first transmission channel and a second transmission channel spaced apart along a first preset direction.

The first transmission channel has a discharge port at the end near the second transmission channel, and the discharge port is closable.

[0007] Furthermore, a baffle plate is provided at one end of the first transmission channel near the second transmission channel. The baffle plate is rotatable and has an open state and a closed state connected to the discharge port. When the baffle plate is in the open state, the material can pass through the discharge port. When the baffle plate is in the closed state, the baffle plate blocks the discharge port.

[0008] Furthermore, the pneumatic receiving module includes a driving component, which includes a telescopic rod that is movably connected to a baffle plate to drive the baffle plate to rotate.

[0009] Furthermore, a slide is provided in the second transmission channel, and the slide extends toward the receiving compartment.

[0010] Furthermore, the receiving chamber includes a feed inlet, which is connected to both the transmission channel and the interior of the receiving chamber. The feed inlet is located on the outer casing of the collecting device.

[0011] Furthermore, the pneumatic receiving module includes a mounting housing, which is fixedly connected to the collecting device on the side near the collecting device. The mounting housing is hollow inside and contains a transmission channel. An opening is provided on the side of the mounting housing near the collecting device, and at least a portion of the second transmission channel is formed in the opening.

[0012] Furthermore, the receiving compartment includes a material retrieval window, which is located on the outer casing of the collecting device and is connected to the interior of the receiving compartment.

[0022] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0023] According to an embodiment of this utility model, a pneumatic receiving module is provided. Please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figures 1 to 3 The pneumatic receiving module is installed outside the collection device 10. The pneumatic receiving module includes: a receiving port 1, which is connected to a pneumatic transmission pipeline; a transmission channel 2, which extends along a first preset direction and is connected to the receiving port 1, with at least a portion of the transmission channel 2 located outside the collection device 10; and a receiving chamber 3, which is located at the end of the transmission channel 2 away from the receiving port 1 and is connected to the transmission channel 2. The receiving chamber 3 is used to temporarily store materials, and at least a portion of the receiving chamber 3 is located inside the collection device 10.

[0024] Specifically, receiving port 1 serves as the input end of the pneumatic receiving module, used to connect with an external pneumatic transmission pipeline, enabling materials to enter the module under the drive of airflow.

[0025] Specifically, the transmission channel 2 extends along a first preset direction, with one end connected to the receiving port 1 and the other end connected to the receiving chamber 3, forming a path for material to be transferred from the receiving port 1 to the receiving chamber 3. At least a portion of the transmission channel 2 is located outside the collecting device 10, allowing the entire pneumatic receiving module to be assembled without altering the internal structure of the collecting device 10.

[0026] Specifically, the receiving chamber 3 is located at the end of the transmission channel 2 away from the receiving port 1 and is connected to the transmission channel 2, and is used to temporarily store the material output from the transmission channel 2. At least a portion of the receiving chamber 3 is located inside the collecting device 10, thereby realizing the transition of material from the external module to the inside of the device.

[0027] In some embodiments, after the materials arrive at the receiving bin 3, they can be sorted and fed one by one by an automatic feeding device.

[0028] In the pneumatic receiving module of this embodiment, by arranging the pneumatic receiving module as a whole outside the collection device 10 and opening only the necessary interfaces and channels on the device shell, the efficient reception and transmission of materials can be achieved without structural adjustments to the existing collection device 10. This effectively reduces manufacturing and modification costs, improves the adaptability and expandability of the equipment, and solves the technical problem in the related art that the pre-processing equipment cannot add a pneumatic receiving module due to its compact internal structure.

[0029] Preferably, the first preset direction is vertical, so that the material can move in the transmission channel 2 by its own weight without the need for power.

[0030] In the pneumatic receiving module of this embodiment, see Figure 3 The transmission channel 2 includes a first transmission channel 21 and a second transmission channel 22 spaced apart along a first preset direction. The first transmission channel 21 is connected to the receiving port 1, one end of the second transmission channel 22 is connected to the first transmission channel 21, and the other end of the second transmission channel 22 is connected to the receiving chamber 3. The first transmission channel 21 has a discharge port 23 at the end near the second transmission channel 22, and the discharge port 23 is closable.

[0031] Specifically, one end of the first transmission channel 21 is connected to the receiving port 1, serving as the initial transmission path for materials entering through the receiving port 1; one end of the second transmission channel 22 is connected to the first transmission channel 21, and the other end is connected to the receiving bin 3, thus forming a complete material transmission path from the receiving port 1 to the receiving bin 3. The discharge port 23 is designed to be openable and closable, allowing it to open when needed to allow material passage and close when not in operation to prevent material flow, thereby achieving precise control over the material transmission process. When open, material can smoothly enter the second transmission channel 22 from the first transmission channel 21 through the discharge port 23; when closed, the baffle component blocks the discharge port 23, preventing uncontrolled flow of material into the second transmission channel 22, thus improving the controllability and flexibility of material conveying.

[0032] In the pneumatic receiving module of this embodiment, see Figure 3 A baffle plate 24 is provided at one end of the first transmission channel 21 near the second transmission channel 22. The baffle plate 24 is rotatable and has an open state and a closed state connected to the discharge port 23. When the baffle plate 24 is in the open state, material can pass through the discharge port 23. When the baffle plate 24 is in the closed state, the baffle plate 24 blocks the discharge port 23. In this way, the opening and closing state of the discharge port 23 is controlled by the baffle plate 24.

[0033] In some embodiments, the base plate where the discharge port 23 is located is inclined, and the distance between the base plate and the vertical direction gradually decreases along the direction close to the second transmission channel 22. This can reduce the rotation amplitude (rotation angle) of the baffle plate 24, thereby reducing the overall thickness of the pneumatic receiving module.

[0034] In the pneumatic receiving module of this embodiment, see Figure 2 The pneumatic receiving module includes a drive component 25, which includes a telescopic rod that is movably connected to a baffle plate 24 to drive the baffle plate 24 to rotate.

[0035] Specifically, the drive component 25 controls the opening and closing of the baffle plate 24. The drive component 25 employs a telescopic rod structure, which drives the baffle plate 24 through its telescopic movement, thereby opening and closing the discharge port 23. The telescopic rod can extend or retract after a command is issued by the control system, causing the baffle plate 24 to rotate around its axis, automatically switching between open and closed states. The baffle plate 24 is connected to the inner wall of the first transmission channel 21 via a hinge structure, and is movably connected to the telescopic rod of the drive component 25 on one side. This connection structure allows the baffle plate 24 to rotate around the hinge point under the pushing or pulling action of the telescopic rod, thus switching between open and closed states. In this way, by setting the drive component 25 and movably connecting it to the baffle plate 24, automated control of the opening and closing of the discharge port 23 is achieved. The telescopic rod in the drive component 25 is preferably a pneumatic or electric actuator, such as a cylinder or electric cylinder.

[0036] Preferably, the driving component 25 includes two components, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the transmission channel 2.

[0037] In the pneumatic receiving module of this embodiment, see Figure 3 The second transmission channel 22 is equipped with a slide 26, which extends toward the receiving chamber 3. Specifically, the slide 26 serves as a guide structure for the material during the process of conveying material from the second transmission channel 22 to the receiving chamber 3. The slide 26 extends toward the receiving chamber 3 to match the material flow direction. Under the combined action of gravity and airflow, the material slides smoothly down the surface of the slide 26, ensuring that it can smoothly enter the interior of the receiving chamber 3.

[0038] In the pneumatic receiving module of this embodiment, see Figure 3The receiving chamber 3 includes an inlet 31, which connects to both the transmission channel 2 and the interior of the receiving chamber 3. The inlet 31 is located on the outer casing of the collecting device 10. The inlet 31 facilitates communication between the transmission channel 2 and the interior of the receiving chamber 3, allowing materials to smoothly enter the receiving chamber 3 for temporary storage. Specifically, the inlet 31 is located on the outer casing of the collecting device 10 and connects to the internal space of the receiving chamber 3. This means that the inlet 31 is physically part of the collecting device 10 and directly serves the functional requirements of the receiving chamber 3. By placing the inlet 31 on the outer casing of the collecting device 10, effective docking between the external transmission channel and the internal receiving chamber can be achieved without complex modifications to the internal structure of the device. This structural design is reasonable, easy to install, and can meet the requirements for adding pneumatic receiving functions without altering the original internal structure of the collecting device.

[0039] In some embodiments, the feed inlet 31 is preferably located at the top or upper side of the receiving chamber 3 so that the material falls naturally into the receiving chamber 3 by gravity.

[0040] In some embodiments, a clearance through hole is provided on the housing of the collecting device corresponding to the position of the transmission channel 2 to allow clearance for some structures, or to provide sufficient space for the baffle plate 24 to facilitate the installation of structures such as the transmission channel. In this way, when adding a pneumatic receiving module to the collecting device, only a few housing parts need to be replaced on the basis of the existing equipment to complete the assembly of the pneumatic receiving module.

[0041] In the pneumatic receiving module of this embodiment, see Figure 1 The pneumatic receiving module includes a mounting housing 4, which is fixedly connected to the collecting device 10 on the side closest to the collecting device 10. The mounting housing 4 is hollow inside and houses the transmission channel 2. An opening 41 is provided on the side of the mounting housing 4 closest to the collecting device 10, forming at least a portion of the second transmission channel 22. Specifically, the mounting housing 4 is fixedly connected to the collecting device 10 on the side closest to the collecting device 10 to achieve stable assembly of the entire pneumatic receiving module on the collecting device 10. The mounting housing 4 has a hollow structure, and its internal space is used to accommodate at least a portion of the structure of the transmission channel 2, particularly sections of the first transmission channel 21 and the second transmission channel 22. This hollow structure design not only provides physical protection for the transmission channel 2, preventing interference from the external environment during material transmission, but also allows the collecting device to have a certain degree of aesthetic integrity.

[0042] Specifically, a clearance opening 41 is provided on the side of the mounting housing 4 near the collecting device 10. This clearance opening 41 serves as a transition interface for the material transfer path between the mounting housing 4 and the collecting device 10, allowing for clearance of the material transfer path to ensure that the material can smoothly enter the receiving chamber 3 from the transfer channel inside the mounting housing 4. By integrating the transfer channel 2 at least partially inside the mounting housing 4 and providing a clearance opening 41 on the side of the mounting housing 4 near the collecting device 10, the second transfer channel 22 can effectively dock with the receiving chamber 3. This invention achieves an integrated design of the pneumatic receiving module and an optimized external installation layout.

[0043] In some embodiments, the mounting housing 4 can be used to carry and support structures such as the transmission channel 2.

[0044] In some embodiments, the transmission channel can also be directly fixed to the collection device 10, and the mounting housing 4 is hollowed out on the side near the collection device 10. The mounting housing 4 covers the transmission channel and other structures, thereby achieving a certain aesthetic effect and protection.

[0045] In the pneumatic receiving module of this embodiment, see Figure 1 The receiving chamber 3 includes a material retrieval window 32, which is located on the outer casing of the collecting device 10 and communicates with the interior of the receiving chamber 3. Specifically, the receiving chamber 3, as a functional component for temporarily storing materials conveyed by the transmission channel 2, also includes the material retrieval window 32, which is used to enable operators or external material retrieval mechanisms to retrieve materials temporarily stored inside the receiving chamber 3.

[0046] Preferably, the opening of the material picking window 32 is adjacent to the inlet 31 to ensure that the material picking path directly reaches the receiving bin 3. This arrangement allows the material picking window 32 to achieve efficient material picking without occupying additional structural space of the receiving bin 3 itself, while also facilitating the integrated design of the overall structure of the collection device 10.

[0047] In the pneumatic receiving module of this embodiment, see Figure 1 The mounting housing 4 and the material picking window 32 are spaced apart along a first preset direction. The end face 42 of the mounting housing 4 near the receiving chamber 3 is inclined, and the distance between the end face 42 and the first preset direction gradually decreases along the direction closer to the receiving chamber 3. The relative positions of the mounting housing 4 and the material picking window 32 on the collecting device 10 are arranged at intervals according to the first preset direction. The end face 42 is inclined in a converging manner from the side away from the receiving chamber 3 to the side closer to the receiving chamber 3, forming a structural shape that gradually narrows towards the receiving chamber 3. On the one hand, this helps to optimize the transition area between the end of the mounting housing 4 and the receiving chamber 3, reduce space occupation and improve structural compactness; on the other hand, it avoids obstacles when picking up materials.

[0048] A collection device, comprising the aforementioned pneumatic receiving module.

[0049] In some embodiments, the collection device can be applied to a pre-processing device or a post-processing device to collect samples and then process them.

[0050] By applying the collection device of this embodiment to the pretreatment equipment, the pneumatic receiving module can be arranged on the outside of the pretreatment equipment, and only the necessary interfaces and channels are opened on the shell of the pretreatment equipment. This enables efficient reception and transmission of materials without structural adjustments to the existing pretreatment equipment, effectively reducing manufacturing and modification costs, improving the adaptability and scalability of the equipment, and solving the technical problem in related technologies where the pretreatment equipment cannot add a pneumatic receiving module due to its compact internal structure.
