The working cycle of the vacuum feeder consists of four stages
The entire device of the vacuum feeder is designed to match the
corresponding air source pressure, warehouse pump and pipe size
according to the material delivery volume. Silo pumps are used as
conveying devices. Every time the material passes through the
warehouse pump, it is a working cycle.
1. Feeding stage: The feeding valve is normally open, and the material falls freely
into the feeding barrel under the action of gravity. There are two
situations in the feeding stage: first, when the material
accumulates to a certain height and hits the material level meter,
the material level meter sends a signal and the feeding valve
automatically closes to complete the feeding process; second, when
the feeding time is less than the design time, The feed valve
signals in advance. During this feeding process, material bridging
should be avoided.
2. Fluidization stage: the inlet valve opens automatically. When the compressed air
enters the shell and continuously diffuses through the fluidization
plate, it ensures that the material particles are evenly surrounded
by air and increases the pressure in the fluidization plate so that
the material particles are not blocked. The key technology of this
process is to ensure that the material particles in the fluidized
tray are not blocked.
3. Conveying stage: the pressure inside the conveying casing continues to rise. When
the set value is reached, the pressure sensor sends a signal and
opens the discharge valve. When the material is sent out from the
fluidized tray, the material level in the housing is reduced, which
strengthens the fluidization of the material in the fluidized tray,
so that the whole conveying stage is in the state of fluidization
and conveying at the same time.
4, purging stage: After the material particles are transported, when the pressure
inside the casing drops to the air pipe pressure, the pressure
sensor sends a signal to promote the purging pipe to continue
purging for a period of time, and then close the inlet valve. When
the pressure in the cylinder is atmospheric pressure, close the ash
circulation outlet valve.
Advantages of vacuum conveyor pipeline closed conveying
1. This transportation method can eliminate dust environmental
pollution, improve the working environment, while reducing the
pollution of the environment and personnel to materials, and
improving cleanliness;
2. Because it is transported by pipeline, it occupies a small space
and can complete the powder transportation in a small space, making
the workshop space beautiful and generous; it is not limited by
long or short distances.
3. The vacuum loading machine can reduce manual labor intensity and
improve work efficiency;
It is the first choice for conveying most powder materials.
