[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The present invention provides an integrated powder processing device. The integrated powder processing device includes a support frame 1 and a hopper 4 disposed on the upper end of the support frame 1. A weighing component for weighing the hopper 4 is disposed on the top of the support frame 1. A feed pipe 6 is disposed on the top of the hopper 4, and a filter component for filtering materials is disposed on the feed pipe 6. A discharge pipe 10 is disposed on the bottom of the hopper 4. A stirring component and a spraying unit are disposed inside the hopper 4. A drive mechanism for driving the stirring component is disposed outside the hopper 4. The spraying unit is used to rinse the stirring component and the inside of the hopper 4.

[0023] This utility model provides an integrated powder processing device that, compared with existing technologies, integrates batching, conveying, weighing, mixing, dust removal, and cleaning processes into one unit. This eliminates the material transfer paths and connection times between dispersing equipment, simplifies the operation process, significantly shortens the production cycle, and significantly improves production efficiency. The weighing component can accurately weigh the materials in the silo in real time, avoiding losses and errors caused by material transfer in dispersing equipment. The mixing component directly mixes the materials in the silo, reducing formula deviations caused by residues and ensuring uniform product composition. The integrated silo structure reduces the contact points between materials and the outside environment, the filter component filters impurities and blocks contaminants, and the closed design prevents material exposure at the connection points of dispersing equipment. The spray unit washes the silo and mixing component, reducing residues and cross-contamination, and enhancing production safety. This equipment simplifies the operation process, reduces the probability of human error, and improves production stability and reliability.

[0024] The hopper body 4 can be made of stainless steel, and the inner surface of the hopper body 4 is polished to meet medical and sanitary requirements and comply with pharmaceutical industry standards. Alternatively, carbon steel can be used in the agriculture / feed / plastics industry.

[0025] It is worth noting that the feed pipe 6 is connected to an external feed system, which has multiple feed pipes. Different feed pipes are controlled by corresponding valves, and different materials can be selectively introduced into the silo 4, thus enabling the mixing of different materials in the silo 4.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 The support frame 1 has multiple support legs 2, and each support leg 2 is equipped with a vibration damper 3 at its bottom. The vibration damper 3 can be a rubber vibration damper, a spring vibration damper, or an air spring vibration damper. The vibration damper 3 at the bottom of the support leg 2 can reduce the vibration during equipment operation, prevent vibration from affecting the weighing accuracy and equipment stability, reduce vibration interference to the surrounding environment, and improve the overall reliability of the equipment operation.

[0027] Specifically, the weighing assembly includes several weighing modules 5 evenly distributed on the top of the support frame 1, with the silo 4 mounted on top of these weighing modules 5. The weighing modules 5 can be column-type, beam-type, or tubular. The evenly distributed weighing modules 5 can more uniformly bear the weight of the silo 4 and its internal materials, avoiding localized overload due to uneven stress and extending the service life of the weighing assembly. Simultaneously, the collaborative work of multiple weighing modules 5 improves weighing accuracy and stability, reducing errors that may occur when weighing with a single module. Especially when the silo 4 has a large loading capacity or slightly uneven material distribution, data complementarity ensures weighing accuracy.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 The filtration assembly includes a feeding cylinder 12 located at the top of the silo body 4. The feeding cylinder 12 has a lower chamber and an upper chamber. The upper chamber is equipped with a filtration unit, and the lower port of the lower chamber is connected to the inner cavity of the silo body 4. A feed pipe 6 is connected to the lower part of the side wall of the feeding cylinder 12 and is connected to the lower chamber. An exhaust pipe 8 is located on the upper part of the side wall of the feeding cylinder 12 and is connected to the upper chamber. When material enters the lower chamber through the feed pipe 6, the filtration unit can effectively filter the material, intercepting impurities, clumps, etc., to ensure the purity of the material entering the inner cavity of the silo body 4.

[0029] The exhaust pipe 8 connects to the upper chamber. During the process of material entering the lower chamber, the air in the silo 4 and the lower chamber can enter the upper chamber through the filter unit and then be discharged through the exhaust pipe 8. This avoids the problem of the internal air pressure rising due to material filling, which affects the smoothness of feeding. At the same time, it can also prevent unfiltered dust from overflowing with the air and play a certain role in dust removal.

[0030] Specifically, the filtration unit uses a sintered mesh filter cartridge 13. The sintered mesh filter cartridge 13 is made of multiple layers of metal mesh sintered together, which has high-precision filtration performance and can effectively intercept fine impurities and particles in materials. In addition, it has high mechanical strength, high temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance, and can adapt to the characteristics of different materials and complex production environments in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, and chemicals.

[0031] Preferably, a feed valve 7 is installed on the feed pipe 6. The feed valve 7 can flexibly control the opening and closing of the feed pipe 6, facilitating precise adjustment of the feed amount based on the weighing of the material in the silo 4, avoiding excessive material entry that could lead to weighing deviations. It can also be closed promptly when the equipment stops or when feeding needs to be paused, preventing material leakage or external contaminants from entering the silo 4 through the feed pipe 6, further ensuring the accuracy of material measurement and the cleanliness of the internal environment of the silo 4. A vacuum backflushing valve 9 is installed on the exhaust pipe 8. Working in conjunction with the exhaust pipe 8, the vacuum backflushing valve 9 can be opened after the equipment has been running for a period of time to introduce high-pressure gas for backflushing and cleaning of the sintered mesh filter cartridge 13. This effectively removes dust and impurities adhering to the surface of the filter cartridge, preventing filter cartridge blockage from affecting the filtration effect and exhaust flow, extending the service life of the sintered mesh filter cartridge 13, and reducing the number of equipment downtime maintenance caused by filter cartridge blockage.

[0032] Preferably, the discharge pipe 10 is equipped with a discharge valve 11. By adjusting the opening and closing degree of the discharge valve 11, the discharge speed and discharge volume of the material in the silo 4 can be precisely controlled. In conjunction with the weighing component, on-demand discharge can be achieved, avoiding excessive or insufficient material discharge and ensuring the accuracy of material supply for subsequent processes. When the equipment is performing mixing or cleaning operations, closing the discharge valve 11 can effectively isolate the silo 4 from the outside world, preventing material leakage or cleaning fluid outflow, ensuring thorough mixing of materials during mixing, and maintaining the airtightness of the silo 4's inner cavity during cleaning, reducing the risk of material residue and cross-contamination.

[0033] Please see Figure 3 The mixing assembly includes a rotating shaft 15, a rotating disk 16, and multiple mixing blades 17. The rotating shaft 15 penetrates the rear wall of the chamber 4. The rotating disk 16 is installed at the end of the rotating shaft 15 that penetrates into the chamber 4. The multiple mixing blades 17 are circumferentially mounted on the rotating disk 16. The drive mechanism is installed on the rear side of the chamber 4 and is connected to the end of the rotating shaft 15 that extends out of the chamber 4. The drive mechanism drives the rotating shaft 15 to rotate, thereby causing the rotating disk 16 and the circumferentially distributed mixing blades 17 to rotate synchronously. The multiple mixing blades 17 form a three-dimensional mixing area inside the chamber 4, which can tumble and mix the materials from all directions and at multiple angles, effectively breaking up the agglomeration of the materials and allowing powder materials of different components to quickly and evenly blend, greatly improving mixing efficiency and mixing uniformity. The design of the rotating shaft 15 penetrating the rear wall of the chamber 4 makes the installation layout of the mixing assembly more compact and highly integrated with the chamber 4, avoiding excessive occupation of the internal space of the chamber 4 by complex structures and reducing dead corners of material residue during the mixing process.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3The front wall of the chamber 4 is a sight glass 14. The spray unit includes a spray pipe 19 that penetrates the sight glass 14. One end of the spray pipe 19, which enters the chamber 4, is equipped with a spray ball 20. The other end of the spray pipe 19, which exits the chamber 4, is used to connect to the cleaning pipeline. When the equipment needs cleaning, the cleaning fluid in the cleaning pipeline is delivered to the spray ball 20 through the spray pipe 19. The spray ball 20 can spray the cleaning fluid into the interior of the chamber 4 and the agitator components from all directions without dead angles, ensuring that the agitator blades 17, the rotating disc 16, the inner wall of the chamber 4, and other parts are thoroughly rinsed. This effectively removes residual powder materials, avoids cross-contamination between different batches of materials, and meets the stringent cleanliness requirements of industries such as pharmaceuticals and food. The sight glass 14 allows for a clearer and more intuitive observation of the cleaning status inside the chamber 4, facilitating timely adjustment of the relevant parameters for the spraying operation.

[0035] Specifically, the drive mechanism is an explosion-proof motor 18, and the drive end of the explosion-proof motor 18 is connected to one end of the rotating shaft 15 that extends out of the chamber 4. The explosion-proof motor 18 has a special explosion-proof structure and performance, which can effectively prevent sparks, arcs or high temperatures inside the motor from igniting flammable and explosive substances outside, reducing the risk of explosions, fires and other safety accidents from the source, and providing reliable safety assurance for the production process.

[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
