This equipment mainly in order to distribute two kinds of (or more) different series product such as water as the product of its carrier (below be shown water based product or dyestuff), with various dissimilar solvents as the product of its carrier (below be shown solvent base product or dyestuff) or use and the product of all compatible fluid of water and solvent for its carrier.(below be shown the universal product or dyestuff).Can be regarded as with " product " this general speech and to comprise in the above three types all kinds of dyestuffs, pigment, red ink paste used for seals and to be used for paint vehicle and the fluid basis of similar material.But the present invention can be in order at a lot of industrial circles such as food, chemistry, medicine with much handle in other industry and distribute the various above-described fluids that are different from.

In known enforcement, when wanting, can produce many difficulties with the water base and solvent base product of single devices allocation, this often causes very big inconvenience.In fact, known equipment has the rotating disk casing that much can move on to the batching position, like this, not to distribute a kind of product at every turn and cause on the very big time and the loss on the production capacity, have only a distributing center that is connected with corresponding distribution part (pump and batching motor-driven valve) exactly, pipeline and all dispense nozzle all are pooled to this center.Do not make the frequent product that distributes and do solid between two sub-distribution and hinder or what can hinder corresponding correct running at distributing center for fear of making, the general employing keeps saturated-vapor state in order to the ozzle humidifying device of the corresponding distributing center of embolism so that at the tube nozzle outlet place.For example, this device is stated from by the applicant and submits patent application No.MI96A000601 in examining to.This humidifying device also can be connected with capping plug as being submitted to by the applicant as described in patent application No.B0 95 A000591 in examining with punching machine.In addition, can be in conjunction with adopting in order on the tank body that product dispensation must be entered, to aim at the mechanical device at jar center, hole or the device of other types.

But water base, the solvent base or the universal product have different doing the solid time, like this, just may be not enough to produce equal effect, vice versa to the solvent base or the universal product for avoiding water based product to do the solid humidifying device of proofreading and correct.

In addition, the blending between water base, the solvent base and the universal product is the potential cause that institute's allocated product is stain or is infected with.For example, can form drop on the ozzle of a certain product (as the solvent base), distribute another kind of product when (as water base) by adjacent nozzles, drop will be transferred in the container (tank body) of the allocated product in order to pack into.Consequent contamination or be infected with can cause the grandson's of can not covering infringement to coating, this can change the characteristic on its physical chemistry and the colourity simultaneously.

At present, for avoiding these difficulties, suitable, desirable way is the distributing equipment that adopts two or more branches to be arranged, and an equipment is in order to distribute a kind of product.But, this way for the amount that must distribute and (or) available space should not adopt the medium and small user of an above distributing equipment too expensive.In addition, this way can not provide the productivity ratio of optimum level.

The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of distributing equipment, make it structurally with on the function can overcome the difficulty that all above-mentioned prior aries run into.

This purpose is to be reached by the equipment of implementing by means of appended claims of the present invention.

Adopt the present invention can advantageously make the hourly efficiency of certain fluid product double to increase (or being doubled and redoubled), this depends on dispensing head and the actual quantity of distributing center (or)).Under the situation of distributing material such as colour-wash and paint vehicle, the present invention just can produce two (or more than two) simultaneously is equipped with the container of color same fluid or the container of color different fluid.In addition, the hourly capacity that doubles or be doubled and redoubled can draw under the situation that does not influence totle drilling cost, because this need only adopt the single equipment that has single computer and electronic-controlled installation, equipment is convenient to the complete set of equipments that self-contained one-tenth has single transmission line, and it is limited to we can say that also this mainly is related to the space.Favourable point of the present invention is that the lower known device traditionally of the shipment cost of equipment and production capacity is more or less the same.By the present invention, an equipment also only needs a people to operate.

Under the situation of distributing the objectionable intermingling fluid, for example under the situation of distributing water base and solvent base product, need only make each dispensing head or distributing center only just can avoid any possible being infected with for a described mutual exclusive fluid special use.This also helps to eliminate any possible human error who relates to the operator, because different distribution parts clearly locatees, in any case this also can adopt the recognition methods of concrete sign, label or unlikely generation mistake.

Have at the container of accepting fluid under the situation of smaller opening, preferably adopt less dispensing head and (or) distributing center.Some fluids that the present invention can make the user distribute are divided into two or plural grouping, make it be pooled to some dispensing heads different and that separate or center, but still keeping using single control device, processor and user interface to control the advantage of batch operation.

Certainly, principle of the present invention can be used for the distributing equipment of a lot of types, comprises specially in to handle the equipment of dangerous fluid such as incendivity or explosive fluid, and these equipment are exactly so-called " explosion-proof " equipment.
