The sample injector 200 is used for delivering a sample into the host 100 at a certain frequency, so that sample particles can be dispersed for convenient measurement, and the sample injector is mainly divided into a wet sample injection mode and a dry sample injection mode. The lower chute 210 of the sample injector 200 is connected to the test window 110 of the host computer 100, and the sample can fall into the test window 110 from the lower chute 210. The sample controller 300 is configured to control the sample injector 200 according to the data fed back from the host 100, and is electrically connected to the host 100 and the sample injector 200, respectively. The particle size analyzer according to the technical scheme is provided with a closed-loop control circuit, and can implement a closed-loop sample injection control method. The shading ratio of the collected sample is taken as feedback quantity and transmitted to the sample injection controller 300, the sample injection sample injector 300 calculates the difference value between the sample shading ratio and the set shading ratio, then the sample injection quantity of the sample injector 200 is controlled according to the difference value, the sample injection quantity influences the sample shading ratio of the sample to form a closed loop, the sampling shading ratio is gradually equal to the set shading ratio after the control of a plurality of sampling periods, and the stable sample injection of the host is realized. Can respond to the change of external environment, keep the stability of advancing the sample to guarantee the stability of measuring result.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 1, the sample injector 200 uses a vibrator 220 as a power source of the sample loading slot 210 of the sample injector 200, and the vibrator 220 may vibrate at different frequencies according to the frequency and magnitude of the voltage applied to its two ends to drive the loading slot 210 connected thereto to vibrate, so as to shake the sample in the loading slot 210 into the test window 110 of the host 100. The vibrator 220 is electrically connected to the sample injection controller 300, and the sample injection controller 300 changes the control voltage output to both ends of the vibrator 220 according to the difference fed back by the host 100, thereby implementing the closed-loop control of the sample injector 200.
In some embodiments, the feeding chute 210 is further provided with a gyroscope 230, the gyroscope 230 can detect the vibration intensity of the feeding chute 210, the gyroscope 230 is electrically connected with the sample injection controller 300, and the vibrator 220 can be calibrated by comparing the vibration intensity fed back by the gyroscope 230 with the output intensity of the sample injection controller 300, so as to prevent the vibrator 220 from aging to cause output drop, thereby influencing closed-loop control and test results.

Referring to fig. 3, the sample injection control method according to the embodiment of the third aspect of the present invention includes the following three steps:

It can be understood that, when the sampling light shielding ratio is greater than the set light shielding ratio, that is, the difference between the sampling light shielding ratio and the set light shielding ratio is a positive value, the sample injection controller 300 should control the sample injector 200 to reduce the working strength to reduce the sample injection amount; when the sampling shielding ratio is smaller than the set shielding ratio, i.e. the difference between the sampling shielding ratio and the set shielding ratio is a negative value, the sample injection controller 300 should control the sample injector 200 to increase the working strength to increase the sample injection amount.

In some embodiments, in order to ensure the accuracy of the sampling shading ratio, the sampling shading ratio is an average value of all the shading ratio sampling values within a period of time T, and the average value can effectively reduce the influence caused by errors of individual sampling values, so that the closed-loop control is more rapid and stable.
