[0003] [Patent Document 1] China Registered Utility Model No. 1483516 [Patent Document 2] JP 2002-079133 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] However, in the conventional grinding method, when the particle size of the powder is smaller than the uneven structure of the grinding surface of the grinding tool, grinding is ineffective. In addition, such a facing grinding method generates high temperatures, which causes the powder to deteriorate.
[0005] In the conventional patent documents, for example, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 mentioned above, a method is disclosed in which high-speed powder transmission is achieved by using airflow injection or a special nozzle structure, and the powder is collided and refined at the same time. However, since the mass of the powder is very small, the efficiency is quite low whether it is collision or crushing, and the high-pressure airflow causes the powder to flow out of the cabin at high speed, so the powder refinement method has the disadvantage that the electrical energy consumption is very high but the productivity is very low.
[0006] Therefore, the inventor believed that the above-mentioned shortcomings could be improved, and after extensive research, he came up with the present invention, which effectively improves the above-mentioned problems through rational design.
[0007] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide a powder crushing device, which adopts dry impact crushing and refining technology, and uses a coarse grinding unit at the bottom of the cabin to perform coarse grinding on large particles of powder that cannot be lifted by the whirlwind in the chamber, thereby shortening the time series of the subsequent fine grinding and improving the powder crushing efficiency.

The powder crushing device further includes a material supplying unit, a regrinding unit, and a collecting unit. The material supplying unit feeds powder to be ground into the internal chamber. The crushing, refining, and powder sorting unit crushes, refines, and powder sorts the powder roughly ground by the coarse crushing unit.

The collecting unit collects the powder that has been crushed and refined to reach the target particle size.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0014] Hereinafter, the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the following examples, and can be modified as desired without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
[0015] First, the powder crushing device according to the present invention will be specifically described with reference to Figs.
[0016] The powder crushing device according to the present invention includes a cabin 1, a coarse crushing unit 2, a crushing / refining / powder sorting unit 3, a transmission mechanism 4, a material supply unit 5, a regrind unit 6, and a collection unit 7. The configuration of each component will be described below.
[0017] The cabin 1 has an internal chamber 11 which exhibits a negative pressure.
[0018] The coarse grinding unit 2 is installed in the internal chamber 11 and is located at the bottom of the internal chamber 11. The coarse grinding unit 2 includes a lower impeller 21 and a grinding ring gear 22, and the grinding ring gear 22 is installed on the wall surface of the internal chamber 11 and corresponds to the lower impeller 21. The grinding ring gear 22 has a grinding tooth surface 221 on a surface corresponding to the lower impeller 21, and the grinding tooth surface 221 is formed by arranging a plurality of grinding ratchets a at an inclination. The lower impeller 21 and the grinding tooth surface 221 during rotation are combined to perform rough grinding on the powder in the internal chamber 11. When the grinding ratchets a are arranged at an inclination, a flow path b corresponding to the inclination is formed in the valley portion of the two adjacent grinding ratchets a, and the flow path b can guide the moving direction of the powder. In addition, in a preferred embodiment, the lower impeller 21 includes a plurality of blades 211 that are equiangularly spaced apart along the radial direction of the lower impeller 21 .
[0019] The crushing / refining / powder sorting unit 3 crushes and refines the roughly ground powder by a collision method, and also selects powder that has reached a target particle size after refinement, and causes it to enter the collecting unit 7.
[0020] The transmission mechanism 4 is installed coaxially with the lower impeller 21 of the coarse crushing unit 2 and the crushing, refining, and powder sorting unit 3, and is operated by the transmission mechanism 4 to transmit the lower impeller 21 and the crushing, refining, and powder sorting unit 3 synchronously.
[0021] The material supply unit 5 automatically introduces the powder to be ground into the internal chamber 11 by the Venturi effect. The material supply introduction end 51 of the material supply unit 5 communicates with the internal chamber 11 and corresponds to the lower stage of the crushing / refining / powder sorting unit 3.
[0022] The regrinding unit 6 discharges the powder that does not reach the target particle size during the pulverization and refining process into the internal chamber 11, and then reintroduces it into the internal chamber 11 to perform the rough grinding and / or pulverization and refining process again. In a preferred embodiment, the introduction and discharge of the powder is achieved by utilizing the Venturi effect. In a preferred embodiment, the regrinding unit 6 includes an upper regrinding unit 61 and a lower regrinding unit 62. The upper regrinding unit 61 has an outlet end 611 and an inlet end 612 that are connected to the internal chamber 11, and the outlet end 611 corresponds to the upper stage of the pulverization, refining, and powder sorting unit 3, and the inlet end 612 corresponds to the lower stage of the pulverization, refining, and powder sorting unit 3. The lower regrind unit 62 also has an outlet end 621 and an inlet end 622 connected to the internal chamber 11, the outlet end 621 corresponding to the coarse crushing unit 2, and the inlet end 622 corresponding to the lower stage of the crushing / refining / powder sorting unit 3.
[0023] The collecting unit 7 concentrates and collects the refined powder that has reached the target particle size and has been selected by the crushing / refining / powder sorting unit 3.
[0024] During grinding, the material supply unit 5 inputs the powder to be ground into the internal chamber 11 from the material supply introduction end 51, and at the same time, the transmission mechanism 4 drives the lower impeller 21 of the coarse grinding unit 2 and the grinding, refining, and powder sorting unit 3 to operate. At this time, the powder to be ground that has entered the internal chamber 11 is swung by the lower impeller 21 and floats up, and depending on the position at which it floats up, it collides with the grinding tooth surface 221 of the grinding ring gear 22 or the rotating grinding, refining, and powder sorting unit 3, so that the powder to be ground is crushed. When the finely refined powder passes through the through hole 31 of the grinding, refining, and powder sorting unit 3 rotating at high speed, it indicates that the powder has reached the target particle size, and is concentrated and collected by the collection unit 7.
[0025] Powders with large particle size are shaken off around the crushing / refining / powder sorting unit 3 by the action of centrifugal force, and enter the upper regrinding unit 61 or the lower regrinding unit 62 through the discharge end 611 or the discharge end 621 according to the position where they are shaken off, and the upper regrinding unit 61 and the lower regrinding unit 62 send the powder back into the inner chamber 11 through the inlet end 612 or the inlet end 622 by the Venturi effect. Then, the crushing / refining process is carried out, and the purpose of refining the powder to the target particle size is achieved by the dry grinding method.
[0026] Figure 6 shows the particle size analysis of collagen after it is crushed and refined by the powder grinding device of the present invention. As shown in Figure 6(a)-(d), after collagen is finely refined by the powder grinding device of the present invention, the collagen powder has a polygonal shape and a particle size D97 of less than 8 μm.
