[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, when the nozzle one-way baffle 6 falls and covers the inclined opening of the front nozzle assembly, the nozzle is in a closed state. like Figure 5 As shown, when the nozzle one-way baffle 6 returns to the side wall of the rear nozzle assembly 23, the nozzle is in the open state.
[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the assembly of this utility model includes the following steps: Step 1: Install the nozzle one-way baffle 6. Use two sets of nozzle one-way baffle fixing brackets 7 to fix the nozzle one-way baffle 6 to the opening above the rear nozzle. Fix it by using four sets of nozzle one-way baffle fixing bolts 8, nozzle one-way baffle fixing washers 9, and nozzle one-way baffle fixing spring washers 10.

[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the working principle of this utility model is as follows: The air cannon is installed at the flange of the rear nozzle assembly 23. At this time, the solenoid valve 24 is not supplied with compressed air, the piston rod (air rod) of the cylinder 14 is retracted, and the nozzle one-way baffle 6 is in the closed state. When the air cannon is ready to operate, the solenoid valve 24 is energized in advance. At this time, the control airflow passes through the flexible air tube 25 to the tail end of the cylinder 14, causing the piston rod (air rod) of the cylinder 14 to be pushed out, and the nozzle one-way baffle 6 to be opened. At this time, the device is in a ready-to-go state. Immediately afterwards, the air cannon operates. After the air cannon operates, the solenoid valve 24 is de-energized again, the cylinder is reset, and the nozzle is blocked again, waiting for the next working command.
[0031] When the installation space is limited and the air cannon body has to be installed upside down, the one-way nozzle sealing device of this utility model is used. The one-way baffle 6 of the nozzle prevents the material inside the hopper from flowing back into the air cannon. The one-way baffle 6 of the nozzle plays a particularly important sealing role, avoiding the problem of damage to the air cannon piston and dry bearing caused by the material flowing back through the nozzle.
[0032] This utility model's one-way nozzle sealing device for air cannons is widely applicable to situations where the air cannon nozzle is inverted and there is positive pressure gas in the hopper. This one-way nozzle sealing device for air cannons greatly improves the stability of air cannon operation, extends the service life of air cannons, and significantly expands the application range of air cannons.
[0033] This utility model's one-way nozzle sealing device for air cannons has a simple structure and is easy to install and maintain. It can be opened when the air cannon needs to be activated and closed when it is not in use, greatly increasing the convenience of on-site maintenance.
[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
