[0015] Preferably, a method for preparing a constant temperature and humidity spherical catalyst support includes the following steps: Step 1: Add the raw materials to the feed hopper of the screw feeder according to the ratio. Under the action of the screw, the raw materials are transported to the mixing hopper. Start the first asynchronous motor at the top of the mixing hopper to drive the stirring shaft to rotate at high speed. After high-speed mixing for 60 seconds, supply the acid solution into the liquid spray nozzle. After the acid solution is sprayed, continue high-speed stirring for 60 seconds to ensure uniformity. The mixing temperature is 37±5℃. Step 2: After mixing, open the knife valve 8 to allow the material to fall into the single-head screw feeder. The screw pusher inside the single-head screw feeder further pushes the material to the end of the internal mixer. The temperature control mechanism on both sides of the outer wall of the internal mixer controls the temperature inside the chamber at 37℃±5℃. During the internal mixing process, the synchronous transmission mechanism runs, driving the two rotors inside the mixing chamber to rotate in opposite directions. The material is evenly dispersed by strong shear force in the gap between the rotor and the wall of the mixing chamber. At the same time, the Z-shaped convex ridge of the rotor pushes the material to move axially and fall into the screw extruder along the discharge port. During the discharge process, the cold trap cools the material and controls the discharge temperature at 26-27℃. Step 3: The screw extruder is equipped with a temperature control jacket to keep the extrusion temperature below 40℃. The synchronous transmission mechanism drives the rotor in the mixing chamber to rotate while simultaneously driving the screw of the extruder to rotate. Under the pushing action of the twin screws, the material is pushed to the cooling head to cool down and then extruded from the die head. The die head is ring-shaped with several through holes. The strip extruded material is cut into granules by the cutting action of the cutter disc in the pelletizing head and then falls into the twin screw feeder. Step 4: The double-headed screw feeder motor rotates in the forward direction, conveying the granules to the disc-type rounding chamber of the rounding machine. The pulse electromagnet in the vibrating seat of the rounding machine runs, and the vertical vibration generated is converted into torsional vibration through the inclined spring. This composite vibration causes the granules in the disc-type rounding chamber to move circumferentially along the material wall to achieve rounding. During the process, the spray pipe is turned on to ensure the uniformity of temperature and humidity during the rounding process. After completion, the discharge pipe valve is opened to release the material. If the rounding carrier is not needed, the double-headed screw feeder motor runs in the reverse direction, and the granules are released directly from the other material port.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: (1) This invention integrates the four processes of mixing, internal mixing, extrusion and spherical rolling into one, and adopts a vertical stacked structure design, which greatly reduces the equipment footprint and significantly improves space utilization. It solves the problem that the existing spherical catalyst preparation equipment has a dispersed structure, with the powder mixer, internal mixer, extruder and spherical drum all set up independently, resulting in a large footprint.

[0017] (2) The materials of the present invention are automatically conveyed between each process by the screw feeder, reducing the number of intermediate material transfers by three times, reducing the risk of loss and breakage, avoiding material loss caused by multiple manual transfers in the traditional process and structural damage to the spherical carrier caused by handling, and improving the yield and production efficiency.

[0018] (3) The devices of the present invention are in a sealed connection state, which reduces the impact of changes in external temperature and humidity on operability. Furthermore, the mixing and extrusion stages use temperature control jackets and cooling heads for precise temperature control, and the rounding stage introduces spray coils to maintain humidity, effectively suppressing the impact of environmental fluctuations on material forming, reducing the breakage rate, and ensuring consistent physical properties of the carrier.

[0019] (4) The linkage between the mixing and extrusion mechanisms is achieved through synchronous belt drive, which improves energy efficiency while ensuring a compact processing rhythm. Key components such as the die head and pelletizing disc are designed to be detachable, making it easy to adjust the particle size specifications and adapt to the needs of multi-variety production.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-6 A method for preparing a constant temperature and humidity spherical catalyst support includes the following steps: Step 1: Add appropriate amounts of boehmite, gibbsite, trihydrate, and binder (one or more of guar gum powder, methylcellulose, and carboxymethylcellulose) to the feeding hopper of the screw conveyor according to the ratio. Under the action of the screw conveyor, the raw materials are transported to the mixing hopper 101. Start the first asynchronous motor 105 at the top of the mixing hopper 101 to drive the stirring shaft 107 to rotate at high speed. After high-speed mixing for 60 seconds, supply the acid solution (organic acid or inorganic acid, one or more of citric acid, oxalic acid, and nitric acid) into the liquid spray nozzle 103. After the acid solution is sprayed, continue high-speed stirring for 60 seconds to ensure uniformity. The mixing temperature is 37±5℃. Step 2: After mixing, open the knife valve 8 to let the material fall into the single-head screw feeder 2. The screw pusher in the single-head screw feeder 2 further pushes the material to the end of the internal mixer 3. The temperature control mechanism 303 on both sides of the outer wall of the internal mixer 3 controls the temperature inside the chamber at 37℃±5℃. During the internal mixing process, the synchronous transmission mechanism 13 runs, driving the double rotors in the internal mixing chamber 301 to rotate in opposite directions. The material is evenly dispersed by strong shear force in the gap between the rotor and the wall of the internal mixing chamber. At the same time, the Z-shaped convex ridge of the rotor pushes the material to move axially and fall into the screw extruder 4 along the discharge port. During the discharge process, the cold trap 305 cools the material and controls the discharge temperature at 26-27℃. Step 3: The screw extruder 4 is equipped with a temperature control jacket 402 to control the extrusion temperature within 40℃. The synchronous transmission mechanism 13 drives the rotor in the mixing chamber 301 to rotate while simultaneously driving the extruder screw to rotate. Under the pushing action of the twin screws, the material is pushed to the cooling head 404 to cool down and then extruded from the die head 405. The die head 405 is provided with several through holes in a ring shape. The strip extruded material is cut into granules by the rotary cutting action of the cutter disc 504 in the pelletizing head 5 and then falls into the twin-head screw feeder 6. Step 4: The double-headed screw feeder 6 rotates in the forward direction, conveying the granules to the disc-type rounding chamber 701 of the rounding machine 7. The pulse electromagnet in the vibrating seat 705 of the rounding machine 7 operates, and the vertical vibration generated is converted into torsional vibration through the inclined spring 708. This composite vibration causes the granules in the disc-type rounding chamber 701 to move circumferentially along the material wall to achieve rounding. During the process, the spray pipe is turned on to ensure the uniformity of temperature and humidity during the rounding process. After completion, the discharge pipe 703 and valve 704 are opened to discharge the material. If the rounding carrier is not needed, the double-headed screw feeder 6 motor runs in the reverse direction, and the granules are discharged directly from another material port.

10. A method for preparing a constant temperature and humidity spherical catalyst support, based on the constant temperature and humidity spherical catalyst support preparation device according to claim 9, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: Step 1: Add the raw materials to the feed hopper of the screw feeder according to the proportion. Under the action of the screw feeder, the raw materials are transported to the mixing bin (101). Start the first asynchronous motor (105) at the top of the mixing bin (101) to drive the stirring shaft (107) to rotate at high speed. After high-speed mixing for 60 seconds, the acid solution is supplied to the liquid spray nozzle (103). After the acid solution is sprayed, continue high-speed stirring for 60 seconds to ensure uniformity. The mixing temperature is 37±5℃. Step 2: After mixing, open the knife valve (8) to let the material fall into the single-head screw feeder (2). The screw pusher in the single-head screw feeder (2) further pushes the material to the end of the internal mixer (3). The temperature control mechanism (303) on both sides of the outer wall of the internal mixer (3) controls the temperature inside the chamber at 37℃±5℃. During the internal mixing process, the synchronous transmission mechanism (13) runs, driving the double rotors in the internal mixing chamber (301) to rotate in opposite directions. The material is evenly dispersed by strong shear force in the gap between the rotor and the wall of the internal mixing chamber. At the same time, the Z-shaped convex ridge of the rotor pushes the material to move axially and fall into the screw extruder (4) along the discharge port. During the discharge process, the cold trap (305) cools the material and controls the discharge temperature at 26-27℃. Step 3: The screw extruder (4) is equipped with a temperature control jacket (402) to control the extrusion temperature within 40°C. The synchronous transmission mechanism (13) drives the rotor in the mixing chamber (301) to rotate while simultaneously driving the screw of the extruder to rotate. Under the pushing action of the twin screws, the material is pushed to the cooling head (404) to cool down and then extruded from the die head (405). The die head (405) is arranged in a ring with several through holes. The strip extruded material is cut into granules by the rotary cutting action of the cutter disc (504) in the pelletizing head (5) and then falls into the twin screw feeder (6). Step 4: The double-headed screw feeder (6) motor rotates in the forward direction, conveying the granules to the disc-type rolling chamber (701) of the rolling machine (7). The pulse electromagnet in the vibrating seat (705) of the rolling machine (7) runs, and the vertical vibration generated is converted into torsional vibration through the inclined spring (708). This composite vibration causes the granules in the disc-type rolling chamber (701) to move circumferentially along the material wall to achieve rounding. During the process, the spray pipe is opened to ensure the uniformity of temperature and humidity during the rolling process. After completion, the discharge pipe (703) valve (704) is opened to discharge the material. If the rolling carrier is not needed, the double-headed screw feeder (6) motor runs in the reverse direction and the granules are directly discharged from the other material port.
