AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional pellet manufacturing devices face issues with cutter damage during chamber opening and closing, inaccurate cutter position adjustment, and lengthy maintenance due to integrated cutter and chamber cover units, leading to inefficiencies in adjusting pellet length and increased costs.

Method used

A pellet manufacturing device with a rotatable pellet die and fixed cutting section, allowing separate operation of the chamber cover and cutting parts, enabling easy gap adjustment, accurate cutter positioning, and rapid maintenance by using a hinge mechanism and locking members to prevent cutter-die collisions.

Benefits of technology

Prevents cutter and die damage, facilitates easy and accurate length adjustment, reduces maintenance time, and minimizes molding defects by separating the cutting section from the chamber cover, ensuring seamless operation and efficient pellet production.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a pellet manufacturing device that prevents damage to a pellet die and a cutter, thereby preventing damage to the pellet die of a pellet manufacturing device that manufactures molded pellets of a certain size. A pellet manufacturing device for preventing damage to a pellet die according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a pellet forming section that extrudes raw material by a rotating pellet die to form a pellet, wherein the pellet forming section comprises a forming body in which the pellet die is rotatably installed, a cutting section fixedly installed on the forming body including a cutter positioned around the perimeter of the pellet die to cut the pellet extruded from the pellet die, and a chamber cover section that rotates on the forming body to open and close the forming body so as to expose the pellet die to the outside or to cover the pellet die, wherein the cutting section comprises a cutter installation section in which the cutter is installed, and an installation hinge that rotatably connects the cutter installation section to the cutting section so as to position the cutter close to the perimeter of the pellet die or spaced apart from the perimeter of the pellet die.
