Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of papermaking equipment, specifically to a papermaking pulp bag feeding system. Background Technology
[0002] The pulp preparation workshop's pulp bag feeding system uses multiple conveyor lines. Each conveyor line has a pressure roller sensor switch at its inlet and outlet for process control. The pressure roller sensor switches frequently reciprocate and often get stuck after prolonged use, causing the pulp bags to be conveyed poorly and requiring frequent manual intervention, which seriously affects the efficiency of pulp bag conveying. Utility Model Content
[0003] This application provides a feeding system for paper pulp bales, comprising a conveying device, a non-contact sensor, and a control device. The conveying device includes a conveying support and a conveyor belt, which is connected to and adjacent to the conveying support. The conveyor belt can move under the drive of an external driving device to convey paper pulp bales placed on its surface. The non-contact sensor is fixed to the conveying support and electrically connected to the control device. The non-contact sensor is used to detect the paper pulp bales conveyed by the conveyor belt and transmit the detection signal to the control device.
[0004] In some optional embodiments, there are multiple non-contact sensors arranged sequentially along the conveyor belt's conveying direction.
[0005] In some optional embodiments, there are at least two non-contact sensors, which are respectively positioned at the inlet and outlet of the conveyor belt.
[0006] In some alternative embodiments, the non-contact sensor is an optical sensor.
[0007] In some alternative embodiments, the non-contact sensor includes an infrared sensor or a laser sensor.
[0008] In some alternative embodiments, the signal transmission working surface of the non-contact sensor is arranged perpendicular to the horizontal plane.
[0009] In some alternative embodiments, the feeding system further includes an alerting device fixed to the conveyor support and electrically connected to the control device.
[0010] In some alternative embodiments, the reminder device is an indicator light.
[0011] In some alternative embodiments, the alerting device is a buzzer.
[0012] In some optional embodiments, the feeding system further includes a connecting rod, one end of which is fixedly connected to the conveying bracket, and the other end of which is fixedly equipped with the non-contact sensor.
[0013] The paper pulp bale feeding system provided in this application uses non-contact sensors to detect the paper pulp bales conveyed by the conveyor belt. It features a simple structure, high reliability, and long service life, which can reduce control stoppages caused by detection switch failures, thereby significantly improving the operating efficiency of the conveyor line.
