The materials in the mixer are conveyed to the bottom of the hoister by the conveyor, then are conveyed upwards to the top of the hoister by the hoister, and finally slide into the storage bin by the material guide chute. When a sample needs to be taken, the three-way material guiding mechanism is opened, and the material enters the sample distribution and collection mechanism through the three-way material guiding mechanism to be stored so as to detect the taken material.
Preferably, the conveyor is a scraper conveyor, and the elevator is a bucket elevator.
Furthermore, the three-way material guiding mechanism comprises a feeding pipe, a sampling pipe and a discharging pipe, wherein the feeding pipe is arranged below the material guiding elephant trunk and communicated with the material guiding elephant trunk, the sampling pipe and the discharging pipe are arranged at the bottom of the feeding pipe, one end of the discharging pipe is communicated with the bottom of the feeding pipe, the other end of the discharging pipe is communicated with the material guiding elephant trunk, and the sample distributing and collecting mechanism is located at the bottom of the sampling pipe. During sampling, the feeding pipe is opened, and a part of the materials in the material guiding chute enters the feeding pipe and then falls into the sample distributing and collecting mechanism through the sampling pipe; after the sample is collected, the feeding pipe and the sampling pipe are closed, the materials in the material guiding slide pipe do not enter the feeding pipe any more, and the residual materials in the feeding pipe return to the material guiding slide pipe through the discharging pipe.
Furthermore, the feeding pipe and the discharging pipe are both inclined, and one end of the discharging pipe, which is positioned at the feeding pipe, is higher than one end of the discharging pipe, which is positioned at the material guiding chute. When the feeding pipe is opened and the sampling pipe is closed, the materials in the material guiding elephant trunk sequentially pass through the feeding pipe and the discharging pipe and return to the material guiding elephant trunk again.
Further, the sampling pipe is arranged at the bottom of the feeding pipe along the vertical direction. When the sampling tube is opened, the material in the feeding tube falls into the sample distributing and collecting mechanism through the sampling tube.
Further, the top of inlet pipe be equipped with the inlet pipe solenoid valve, the top of sampling tube be equipped with the sampling tube solenoid valve, the controller be connected with inlet pipe solenoid valve, sampling tube solenoid valve electricity respectively.

During the sample, the material in the inlet pipe falls into in the sample bag through sampling tube, sample connection in proper order, and when the material in this sample bag reached preset weight, distribution dish driving motor drove the rotation of distribution dish, rotates another sample bag to the sampling tube below.
Furthermore, an electronic scale matched with the sampling bag is arranged below the distribution plate. The electronic scale weighs the corresponding sampling bag in real time and feeds weighing data back to the controller.
Furthermore, the distribution plate is inclined, and the electronic scale is positioned below the bottom end of the distribution plate. The rotating surface of the distribution disc and the horizontal plane form an included angle, after a certain sampling bag finishes sampling, the distribution disc rotates, so that the sampling bag leaves the electronic scale along the obliquely upward direction, and the friction force between the sampling bag and the electronic scale and the interference on weighing of the next sampling bag are reduced.
Further, the system also includes a timer electrically connected to the controller. When the materials in the mixing machine start to be discharged, a timer starts to time, the time from discharging of the materials in the mixing machine to entering the material guiding chute is estimated according to the conveying speed of the conveyor and the elevator, when the estimated time is reached, the controller controls the electromagnetic valve of the feeding pipe to be opened, and the materials in the material guiding chute return to the material guiding chute through the feeding pipe and the discharging pipe in sequence; after the inlet pipe solenoid valve was opened a certain time, the material flow in the inlet pipe tended to be stable, and the sampling tube solenoid valve was opened this moment, and the material in the inlet pipe falls into the sample bag through the sampling tube gradually.
A sampling method based on an automatic material sampling system comprises the following steps: the materials in the mixer are conveyed to the bottom of the hoister by the conveyor, then are conveyed upwards to the top of the hoister by the hoister, and finally slide into a storage bin by the material guide chute; when a sample needs to be taken, the three-way material guiding mechanism is opened, and the material enters the sample distributing and collecting mechanism through the three-way material guiding mechanism to be stored.
