Description

Screw type material blanking device controller based on variable speed learning
The application is divisional application with application number 201710905892.3, application date 2017, 09 and 19, and invention title "screw material blanking device based on variable speed learning and controller thereof".
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of quantitative batching, in particular to a controller of a screw type material blanking device based on variable speed learning.
Background
In industrial and agricultural manufacturing and commodity packaging, a large amount of powder materials, such as polypropylene, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, light methyl cellulose, polyacrylonitrile, epoxy resin powder coating and other chemical raw materials, quartz sand, cement and other building raw materials, washing powder and other daily chemical products, millet, soybean and other grain and bean agricultural products, or powder, slag and granular processed food, feed, chemical fertilizer, pesticide and other agricultural production materials, as well as powder and granular health care products, Chinese and Western medicaments, seasonings and the like need to be automatically quantitatively packaged or prepared by batching.
At present, many enterprises in China still adopt manual quantitative batching or packaging, so that on one hand, the labor intensity is high, the speed is low, and the economic benefit is poor; on the other hand, manual quantification of food, medicine and the like often cannot meet the sanitary requirements, toxic and harmful materials are used, and manual quantification is easy to cause harm to human bodies. Therefore, for the manufacturing enterprises, there is an urgent need to provide a multi-component automatic quantitative blanking device or apparatus with lower cost and higher rate and accuracy, which can meet the requirements of quantitative packaging of a large amount of materials or manufacturing of ingredients.
At present, two common methods, namely a positive displacement type and a weighing type, are adopted for automatic quantitative powder material feeding devices at home and abroad. The volumetric quantification is used for metering filling or feeding according to the volume of the material, the quantitative feeding is rapid, but the quality of the quantified material is changed by the change of the density of the material. In order to improve the blanking precision, various adjusting methods are provided, for example, in the chinese patent with application number 201320001933.3, the variable frequency speed regulation is adopted for the screw, the feeding speed is gradually reduced when the target value is approached, and the air drop value is reduced; in the Chinese patent with the application number of 201310234280.8, a large screw and a small screw are adopted in a three-speed variable-frequency feeding process of a soda packing machine for feeding materials in multiple stages; the Chinese patent with the application number of 200920248298.2 reduces the influence of the fall of the feeding by a method of first quick and then slow considering that the quantitative control is difficult to control when the fast feeding is carried out; the final blanking value of the non-weighing schemes can only be close to the expected value, and the accuracy is not high.
The weighing type quantitative feeding method is characterized in that the weighing type quantitative feeding method is used for metering, filling or feeding according to the set once amount of the material, the material needs to be weighed continuously in the feeding process, the feeding amount is controlled in a feedback mode according to the weighing result, and due to the fact that the weighing is greatly influenced by feeding impact and air lag materials, the feeding speed and the feeding precision face a lot of difficulties. In order to compensate the interference of the materials in the air to the metering precision, a technology of closing a valve in advance is adopted in many schemes, for example, a Chinese patent with application number 201410230888.8 divides a material proportioning and weighing process into three stages, and an iterative learning control mode is adopted in the last stage to calculate a closing advance control quantity, but in the scheme, a learning factor of iterative learning needs to be optimized through repeated trial and error and feedback observation, so long-time experiment and debugging are needed, the scheme can only improve the blanking precision after learning is completed, and the accumulated blanking precision in the learning process cannot be guaranteed.
Disclosure of Invention
The simple screw feeder belongs to the volumetric quantitative category, the volumetric quantitative filling measures the quantity of filling materials based on the volume, the structure is simple, the cost is low, but the stability and the precision of the quantitative filling speed depend on the stability of the materials according to the specific gravity, and the influence of physicochemical properties such as the loose degree of the materials, the uniform degree of particles, the hygroscopicity and the like is large.
In principle, volumetric dosing filling can now be divided into two types, controlling the flow rate or time of the filling material and dosing the material with the same dosing container. The former method usually adopts the method of controlling the vibration time of a vibrating feeder or controlling the rotation time of a spiral filling machine to realize quantitative filling; the latter is a quantitative filling machine using a measuring cup, a measuring cylinder or a plunger, etc. Both types have a common problem in that the apparent specific gravity of the material is as stable as possible.
Since the ordinary positive displacement type is conversion type in nature and cannot grasp the exact quality of the blanking like a weighing type, although a scheme combining weighing is provided later, the precision can be ensured only by depending on the extremely low feeding speed at the final stage of the blanking because no empty space amount prediction exists.
In order to predict the air quantity, the time for closing the conveying device in advance is difficult to determine at one time through an off-line experiment because the air blanking quantity in the blanking process is influenced by factors such as the closing speed of the conveying device, the fall between a blanking opening and a scale hopper material surface, the falling form flow rate of the material and the like. In iterative learning control, the learning factor is required to be repeatedly tried out, and the selection of the learning factor is optimized and adjusted by observing error change. Therefore, the conventional iterative learning control requires a long time of repeated experiments to obtain the optimized learning factor, which is not satisfactory for multi-component formulation experiments and rapid manufacturing of multi-component raw materials in the development process.
Therefore, the feeding bin and the measuring hopper of the blanking device are improved, and the air fall and the form change of the material are reduced; detecting the change process of the blanking error in iterative learning in real time and automatically adjusting the value of a learning factor according to the change process; meanwhile, the accumulated error is used as the controlled quantity in the iterative prediction, so that high-precision continuous blanking can be quickly realized, the screw conveyor is operated at a high speed in the control, and the problem that the common screw type blanking device is particularly slow in operation at the final stage is avoided.

The mass equivalent change of the material detected by the weighing module can be represented by the following formula:
Figure BSA0000189811270000101
wherein dm is the blanking mass (g/s) per unit time at the outlet of the screw conveyor 2 at the time t, v0The initial velocity of the material as it falls, the velocity of the material at Δ m as it falls into the weighing hopper, is determined from the velocity v over the time Δ t1Becomes 0.
As can be seen from the formula (1), the air fall h is followed1The impact of the material on the weighing hopper also changes, so that the weight change of the weighing hopper changes with time.
On the other hand, the blanking mass equivalent per unit time in the formula (1) is also influenced by the shape distribution of the materials in the blanking bin 1.
The invention discloses a simple screw type feeder, which belongs to the volumetric quantitative category, and the method adopts dynamic weighing to detect the falling amount of a material and predicts the empty amount of the material through iterative learning. In order to reduce the change of the falling rate of the material during the screw conveying, accelerate the learning convergence rate and inhibit the variable fluctuation range, the invention detects and adjusts the material accumulation form in the blanking bin through the distance sensor and the manipulator-shaped stirrer, so that the dynamic material arch is alternately formed and collapsed above the blanking port, and the material compactness and the stability of the blanking form are ensured.
As shown in FIG. 4, the discharging bin 1 continuously discharges materials, and when the material level in the bin is reduced to a certain value, the materials need to be supplemented. For this purpose, a storage bin 10 is arranged above the lower bin 1, and the material in the storage bin 10 is fed into the lower bin 1 through a feed pump 11 and a feed pipe 15. In order to uniformly feed material particles, a material spray nozzle 16 is arranged at an outlet at the tail end of the feeding pipe 15, the surface of the material spray nozzle 16 is in a spherical shape, round small holes 17 are distributed on the surface of the material spray nozzle, and the aperture of each small hole is optimized according to the granularity of the material. The feed pump 11 is a screw-type feed pump, and its operation is controlled by a controller.
As shown in fig. 5, the feed pump 11 is under the control of the controller,so that the material level of the top surface of the material in the blanking bin is kept at a preset value LTThe rotation speed is controlled by the following formula:
Figure BSA0000189811270000111
wherein, V0 feedingA set maximum feeding speed, L is the current material level of the feed bin, LMAnd LmAre respectively preset at LTThe highest and lowest levels nearby.
As shown in the combined drawings of FIGS. 4 and 6, the invention ensures the uniform distribution of the materials by the matching of the detection and the action of the distance sensor and the stirrer. As shown in fig. 4, the material level in the lower silo 1 is detected by two small-cone-angle distance sensors 18 installed on the side wall of the lower silo, and since the center D of the material spray head 16 and the feed opening B of the lower silo 1 are not generally on a vertical line, the two distance sensors 18 are arranged eccentrically, and the two high and low distance sensors P, Q are respectively pointed to a material level high point C and a material level low point a preset in the lower silo, wherein C, A and D, B are respectively on the same vertical line. In the blanking process of the blanking bin 1, along with the reduction of the material level 19, when the distance detected by the distance sensor Q is greater than the distance corresponding to QA, the controller commands the feeding pump 11 to act to start feeding to the blanking bin 1; then, the level is raised, and when the distance detected by the distance sensor P is smaller than the distance corresponding to the PC, the controller commands the feed pump 11 to act, and stops feeding to the lower silo 1.
Preferably, bases capable of adjusting the vertical inclination angle can be additionally arranged on the two distance sensors, so that the material layer distribution in the blanking bin can be detected with higher resolution.
Preferably, when two distance sensors are not enough to detect all material hardening due to the difference of the size and the shape of different blanking silos 1, the number of the distance sensors can be increased and the distance sensors can be pointed to different material layer heights.
As shown in fig. 6, the present invention improves the distribution of the materials by installing a stirrer 12 on the sidewall of the lower silo 1. The mixer 12 includes a base 121, two arms 122, an arm rotating shaft 123 connecting the two arms, a claw rotating shaft 124, and a claw 125, which are connected in sequence, wherein the base 121 also includes a rotating shaft.
In the blanking process, the distribution of the materials in the blanking bin is judged by respectively detecting the distance sensor and tracking the blanking rate in unit time, so that the material surface in the blanking bin keeps an approximate parabolic shape. As shown in fig. 4 and 6, the arrangement of the distance sensors is optimized so that when the materials are uniformly distributed, the distances between the materials detected by the distance sensors P and Q are within a certain proportion range. When the materials are locally hardened or stably arched, the reading of the distance sensor exceeds the range, and if the materials are detected in a certain distance, P and Q are not detected, the local abnormity occurs. Meanwhile, the feeding speed of each feeding bin is tracked in real time through the weighing module. When the distance sensor detects the abnormal state or finds that the fluctuation of the blanking amount in unit time exceeds a set threshold value, such as 5 percent, the controller commands the stirrer to act, and the claw of the stirrer turns spirally from the starting point to the low point region of the material level through the high point region of the material level, so that hardening or material arch which is formed occasionally is broken, and the material distribution is recovered to be uniform.
Through dynamic detection and control of material distribution, the materials in the lower hopper are activated, the flow of the materials is improved, and the fluctuation of material compactness is reduced, so that the stability of filling amount in unit time is ensured. And (4) stopping feeding and closing the drawing plate while the stirrer acts.
Referring to FIGS. 3 and 7, it can be seen from the formula (1) that the material falls in the air h1The impact of the material on the weighing hopper is changed, so that the weight increase value of the weighing module in unit time is changed. As shown in FIG. 7, in order to reduce the influence of the change of the air fall, the invention arranges a distributor 20 on the upper part of the weighing hopper 3, and the distributor 20 is an hourglass-shaped distributor with the upper part being a cone and the lower part being a flattened cone structure; wherein the upper part is in an opening shape and receives the materials in the blanking bin; the lower part is symmetrically provided with slope-shaped nozzles 21 only at both ends in the length direction. The measuring hopper 3 faces the nozzle 21, the preferred diameter of the convex part is 0.2-0.6 mm or 2-3 times of the diameter of the fallen materials.
Through the action of the distributor, the falling of the materials is divided into three stages, wherein the first stage is from an opening at the bottom of the blanking bin to the blanking pipe through the screw conveyor, the second stage is from the blanking pipe to the distributor, and the third stage is from the nozzle of the distributor to the material pile in the weighing hopper. In the third stage, due to the action of the staggered and distributed bulges on the distributor and the measuring hopper wall, the speed of the material particles impacting the material surface in the measuring hopper is greatly reduced, and the impact force difference from the distributor nozzle to the material pile surfaces with different heights in the measuring hopper is very small, so that conditions are provided for iterative prediction of the controller.
Fig. 8 shows the distribution of the material in the measuring hopper during the blanking of 4 components.
The traditional iterative learning adopts a fixed learning factor, and does not consider accumulated errors, for example, in the chinese patent with application number 201410230888.8, the iterative formula of the feeder closing lead is:
uk+1=uk+q·ek
the empty space amount in the blanking process is predicted by iterative learning of a fixed factor, and fig. 10 illustrates the change of a single blanking error of a material in the iterative process, wherein the abscissa is the blanking frequency and the ordinate is the relative error of each blanking. As can be seen from the figure, the blanking error corresponding to the figure 10a is over-adjusted and the convergence is too slow; the blanking overshoot corresponding to fig. 10b is proper, the convergence trend of the first few times is fast, but the stability of the rear section is slow, and the transition time is too long.
Because the learning factors need to be tried and found in the traditional iterative learning, better parameters can be obtained through repeated experiments and based on operation experience. Therefore, the invention predicts the blanking empty space by observing and analyzing the blanking iterative process and adopting the iterative learning of variable speed, dynamically adjusts the learning factors of the single blanking error and the accumulated blanking error in the iterative learning respectively by comparing the two adjacent blanking errors and the variation range of the three continuous blanking errors, and simultaneously adjusts the learning factors of the previous predicted amount respectively according to the excess or deficiency of the blanking.
Fig. 11 is a schematic view of a partition for adjusting the learning factor of a single blanking error according to the comparison between two adjacent blanking errors. As shown, the horizontal axis is x, and the curves a and d correspond to an envelope curve of x
Figure BSA0000189811270000141
Curves b and c then correspond to an envelope of lines
Figure BSA0000189811270000142
In order to ensure that the blanking error is close to zero rapidly and converges as soon as possible, the relative relationship between two adjacent blanking errors is divided into four regions, namely the four regions on the lower side of a curve a, between the curve a and a horizontal axis, between the curve c and the horizontal axis and on the upper side of the curve c.
Based on the variable rate iterative learning, the controller dynamically predicts the empty space amount of the falling of the material, and as shown in the combined graph 9, the controller performs the blanking control by adopting the following steps:
(1) determining the primary blanking amount Ws of each component according to the primary amount and the proportion of each formula, and assigning an initial value 0 to the accumulated blanking error E of each component; setting the current component as a first component;
(2) feeding the current component, reading the sensor value of the weighing module by the controller, recording the initial weight G0 of the weighing hopper, starting the screw conveyer and feeding the weighing hopper with mu amaxAcceleration, when the speed reaches vH=λ·vRKeeping the speed unchanged;
wherein, amaxRated maximum acceleration, v, of the screw conveyorRThe maximum speed is mu is an acceleration coefficient between 0.5 and 0.9, and the lambda is a speed coefficient between 0.85 and 1.0;
(3) when the weight of the measuring hopper is detected to reach (G0+ Ws-Wa-0.5. lambda. d. t)s) At the beginning, the screw conveyor is closed and the speed is controlled to be mu amaxThe acceleration starts to decelerate until stopping;
wherein d is the discharge of the screw conveyor when the screw is running at maximum speedRate, tsIs from the moment of starting deceleration t2Time t from start to stop3Length of time between: t is ts=λ·vR/μ·amax
(4) Waiting for the materials to completely fall to the weighing hopper, reading a sensing value of the weighing module, obtaining the current actual blanking amount Wr, and calculating the blanking error e to be Wr-Ws;
(5) and updating the accumulated blanking error E' ═ E + E, and calculating the predicted value of the air space quantity:

(9) if the preset blanking batch is finished, finishing blanking; otherwise, the component is set as the first component, and step 2 is carried out.
During the blanking, the controller also detects the material pile shape in the blanking bin in real time through the calculation and analysis of signals of the distance sensor and the weighing module, and commands the mechanical hand-shaped stirrer to act in time if abnormal blanking is found, so that the integral uniform distribution during the blanking is ensured.
