摘要:
An apparatus which permits continuous automatic determination of the bulk specific gravity of a powdery sample and highly precise measurement thereof. The apparatus comprises a robot 3 transporting a container 2 filled with a powdery sample; a funnel 4 provided with a damper, which receives the powdery sample discharged from the container 2; a damper-driving unit 5a for pulling out and pushing the damper 5; a sample sensor 7 for detecting the powdery sample dropped through the funnel 4 provided with a damper; a constant volume receiver 6 for receiving dropped through the funnel 4 provided with a damper; a scraping bar 8 for sliding the upper face of the constant volume receiver 6; a scraping bar-driving unit 8a for reciprocating the scraping bar 8; a constant volume receiver-conveying robot 21 transporting the constant volume receiver 6; an electronic balance 22 which determines the weight the powdery sample in the constant volume receiver 6; and a cleaner 23 for aspirating the weighed powdery sample.

An apparatus for automatically and continuously inspecting a powdery product for the presence of foreign substances as contaminants, which permits highly precise inspection of powdery products, comprises static charge eliminator 10 for eliminating electrostatic charges generated on a powdery sample supplied to the apparatus; hopper 41 for receiving and storing the powdery sample whose electrostatic charges have been eliminated and dropped onto the hopper through static charge eliminator 10; conveyor 42 for conveying the powdery sample, as a subject to be photographed, discharged from hopper 41 and spread over conveyor 42 in the form of a layer having a uniform thickness; and video camera 43 for photographing, over a predetermined visual field, the powdery sample on the subject-conveyor. Images taken by video camera 43 do not include those originated from dark spots due to unevenness of the powdery sample distribution, but includes only those originated from foreign substances even when inspecting a powdery sample which is liable to be electrically charged such as a vinyl chloride resin, since the powdery sample is not agglomerated.

The apparatus includes electronic discharge-weighing device (4) for determining the amount of the powdery sample in sample container (2), introduced into hopper (6) and discharged therefrom by vibration-generating drive (5); dissolution container (12) for receiving and dissolving the powdery sample from hopper (6); electronic balance (13)for weighing the powdery sample in container (12); supply source (14) for solvent into container (12); device (36) for heating and stirring the powdery sample and the solvent in container (12), and a control circuit for controlling the apparatus.
摘要:
An apparatus for automatically inspecting powdery products is disclosed having a plurality of automatic inspection devices each device processing, in parallel, a subdivision of a supplied sample of a powdery product. Each device is controlled by a corresponding terminal computer. To one terminal computer there are connected a device for reading sample information attached to the supplied powdery sample and a device for recording, on the sample subdivisions, information concerning conditions for inspection established by the terminal computer on the basis of the sample information read by the first reading device. To each of the other terminal computers there is connected a corresponding device for reading the information concerning conditions for inspection recorded on the subdivision of the sample. Each terminal computer controls the operation of the automatic inspection devices on the basis of the information concerning conditions for inspection read by each corresponding reading device.
摘要:
An apparatus for automatically determining the rate of plasticizer absorption of a powdery resin sample such as a vinyl chloride resin sample. The apparatus for automatically determining the rate of plasticizer absorption of a powdery resin sample is one in which the rate of plasticizer absorption is determined by treating, in a centrifugal separator 10, a powdery resin contained in an inspection container 2 together with an excess of a plasticizer, to remove from the powdery resin sample the excess plasticizer, and determining the amount of the plasticizer absorbed by and remaining in the powdery resin. The apparatus according to the present invention includes an electronic balance 3 for weighing out the powdery resin which is connected to an arithmetic circuit 61; an injection means 5 for injecting the plasticizer into the powdery resin; a disposal chute 6 for recovering the inspection container 2 already used in the weight-determination; and a suction device 7 for aspirating the plasticizer separated by and remaining in the centrifugal separator 10. The apparatus further includes a robot 4 for transferring the powdery resin contained in the inspection container 2 to the electronic balance 3, the plasticizer-injection means 5, the centrifugal separator 10 or the disposal chute 6; and a driving unit 15 for moving an aspiration port 9 of the suction device 7 up and down within the centrifugal separator 10.
