DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] like Figure 1-14 As shown, a filamentary special isoprene rubber granulation device includes a melt extrusion device 1, a pelletizing device 2, a driving device and a base 5, wherein the melt extrusion device 1, the pelletizing device 2 and the driving device are all installed on the welded base 5. The melt extrusion device 1 includes a barrel 11, a screw 12 and a template mechanism 13, wherein the screw 12 is arranged in the barrel 11, and a feed port 16 is arranged on the barrel 11. One end of the barrel 11 is connected to the template mechanism 13, and the other end is connected to the driving device. In view of the high fluidity and viscosity of the special isoprene rubber, the template mechanism 13 in this embodiment adopts a large die hole for discharging, and reduces the rotation speed of the cutter 23, which can reduce the over-expansion phenomenon caused by the instantaneous pressure reduction when the material is discharged.

[0035] The driving device includes a driving motor 3 and a reducer 4. The screw 12 is connected to the output end of the reducer 4. After the screw 12 is installed, it can be regarded as a cantilever beam structure, that is, the tail end of the screw 12 is connected to the reducer 4, and the head is cantilevered. Two skeleton oil seals 251 are arranged between the reducer 4 and the barrel 11. The skeleton oil seals 251 can ensure the sealing performance when the barrel 11 is directly connected to the reducer 4, prevent the leakage of combustible gas and other gases during the production process, and reduce pollution to the environment.

[0036] The pelletizing device 2 comprises a pelletizing motor 21, a cutter shaft 22, a cutter 23, a pelletizing box 24 and a sealing component 25. The pelletizing motor 21 is connected to the cutter shaft 22. The cutter shaft 22 is provided with a cutter 23 that cooperates with the template mechanism 13 for pelletizing. The pelletizing box 24 is arranged at the discharge side of the template mechanism 13. One side of the pelletizing box 24 is sealed and connected to the template mechanism 13, and the other side is sealed and connected to the cutter shaft 22 through the sealing component 25. The sealing component 25 is arranged along the circumferential direction of the cutter shaft 22. The sealing component 25 and the pelletizing box 24 are connected by bolts. An "O"-shaped sealing ring 254 is provided on the side of the sealing component 25 that contacts the pelletizing box 24 to ensure the sealing of the connection between the sealing component 25 and the pelletizing box 24 and prevent gas leakage in the pelletizing box 24.

[0037] An air blowing channel 253 is provided in the sealing component 25. An air outlet is provided on the side of the sealing component 25 that contacts the cutter shaft 22. An air inlet is provided on the sealing component 25. One end of the air blowing channel 253 is connected to the air inlet, and the other end is connected to the air outlet. The inner diameter of the air blowing channel 253 decreases stepwise from the air inlet to the air outlet. When the air inlet pressure is constant, reducing the aperture can increase the internal air supply pressure and flow rate, thereby providing sufficient pressure at the air outlet. During specific production, nitrogen is introduced into the air blowing channel 253 through the air inlet, and the introduced nitrogen will reach the air outlet through the air blowing channel 253, thereby sealing the cutter shaft 22 at the air outlet. Figure 3 As shown, the branch channel arranged in the air blowing channel 253 in this embodiment is a process hole when the air blowing channel 253 is processed, so as to ensure simple processing.

[0038] The side of the sealing component 25 in contact with the cutter shaft 22 is provided with five labyrinth chambers 252, which are arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the cutter shaft 22, and can reduce the gas leakage in the pelletizing box 24. The side of the sealing component 25 in contact with the cutter shaft 22 is also provided with a skeleton oil seal 251, which is arranged on the side of the five labyrinth chambers 252 away from the pelletizing box 24. The skeleton oil seal 251 can enhance the sealing performance, further prevent the gas leakage in the pelletizing box 24, and also prevent the gas in the air blowing channel 253 from leaking out.

[0039] The air outlet of the air blast channel 253 is connected to the labyrinth chamber 252, so that the nitrogen introduced is evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the cutter shaft to ensure good sealing everywhere. In this embodiment, the air outlet is connected to a labyrinth chamber in the middle of the five labyrinth chambers 252 (i.e., there are two labyrinth chambers 252 on both sides of the air outlet), which can reduce the impact of nitrogen gas on the material in the box and prevent the pelletizing box 24 from being blocked due to the impact of the air flow. At the same time, the labyrinth chamber 252 can also prevent nitrogen gas from leaking to the outside.

[0040] The cutter shaft 22 adopts the above-mentioned "skeleton oil seal", "labyrinth" and "nitrogen protection" matching sealing mode, which can strictly prevent the leakage of combustible gas in the pelletizing box 24. The pelletizing box 24 is provided with an exhaust port for exhausting gas and a discharge port for collecting rubber pellets. When the pelletizing box 24 is sealed and connected with the template mechanism 13 and the cutter shaft 22, the waste gas in the production process of the rubber pellets can be discharged and processed through the exhaust port in a centralized manner, which will not pollute the environment and endanger production safety.

[0041] The barrel 11 is a straight barrel. For the filament-like feeding method, the straight barrel is used to feed the material instead of the traditional conical barrel, which can avoid the problems of difficult feeding, difficult transportation, and screw return. The inner part of the barrel 11 corresponding to the compression section is equipped with a bushing 14, and the inner wall of the bushing 14 is welded with hard alloy to increase its wear resistance and ensure the service life of the barrel 11. The barrel 11 is provided with a shear screw 15 that cooperates with the compression section of the screw 12. When the screw 12 rotates, the shear screw 15 can peel off the material adhered to the shaft of the screw 12 to prevent the material from sticking to the shaft and causing blockage.

[0042] The screw 12 has a constant pitch, which can solve the problem of long feeding time and small feeding of filamentous materials. At the same time, the depth of the feeding screw groove is increased, which can achieve the advantages of fast feeding, rapid conveying and short pressurization time.

[0043] The screw 12 adopts a composite screw ridge, and the screw ridge of the feeding section of the screw 12 is welded to the screw 12. The compression section of the screw 12 is provided with a screw sleeve 17, and the screw ridge 18 is welded on the screw sleeve 17. The feeding section of the screw 12 is subjected to the largest bending moment, and the probability of friction with the inner wall of the barrel 11 is also the smallest. The welded screw ridge and the screw 12 are an integrated structure, which can avoid the occurrence of shaft breakage; the screw ridge 18 of the compression section of the screw 12 is a screw sleeve connection. If there is wear, the screw sleeve 17 can be directly replaced to reduce the cost of equipment replacement. Hard alloy is welded on the screw ridge 18 of the screw sleeve 17 to increase its wear resistance, increase the service life of the screw sleeve 17 and the straight barrel, and reduce costs.

[0044] A strip-shaped positioning groove 171 is provided in the axial direction of the screw sleeve 17, and a positioning block 122 matching the positioning groove 171 is provided on the outer side of the compression section of the screw rod 12, and the positioning block 122 is fixed to the screw rod 12 by screws. The screw sleeve 17 and the positioning groove 171 are fixed by the positioning groove 171 and the positioning block 122, so as to ensure that there is no relative rotation between the screw sleeve 17 and the positioning groove 171. A screw head 121 is provided at the end of the screw rod 12, and the screw head 121 is connected to the screw rod 12 by a thread. After the screw head 121 is connected and fixed to the screw rod 12, the peripheral edge of the screw head 121 will fix the axial direction of the screw sleeve 17 to prevent the axial movement of the screw sleeve 17.

[0045] For the granulation of special isoprene rubber, due to the high viscosity of the material, the radial force at the discharge end of the screw 12 is likely to cause the screw 12 to bend, resulting in friction between the screw ribs and the inner wall of the barrel 11, which causes serious corrosion and wear to the equipment. Therefore, the aspect ratio of the screw 12 can be reduced to reduce the wear between the screw ribs and the inner wall of the barrel 11 and avoid the generation of metal glue.

[0046] The barrel 11 is provided with a jacket 111, and a steam inlet 112 and a steam outlet 113 are provided on the jacket 111. Two annular grooves 114 are formed between the jacket 111 and the barrel 11, and the two annular grooves 114 are respectively connected to the steam inlet 112 and the steam outlet 113, and a steam through hole 115 is provided between the two annular grooves 114. When it is needed, hot steam is introduced from the steam inlet 112, and the hot steam will fill the first annular groove 114, and enter the second annular groove 114 through the steam through hole 115. After heat exchange with the barrel 11 in the annular groove 114, the steam temperature is reduced and then discharged from the steam outlet 113. The straight barrel adopts an external jacket structure, which can accurately control the temperature of the compression section to avoid the influence of temperature changes on material extrusion.

[0047] The working principle of the present invention is: the screw 12 is driven to rotate by the driving motor 3 and the reducer 4 to push the rubber material to move toward the template, wherein the reducer 4 is directly connected to the screw 12, and a skeleton oil seal 251 is used to reduce the leakage points of combustible gas in the production process. The rubber particles extruded from the template are pelletized by the cutter 23 and fall into the pelletizing box 24 for collection. A sealing component 25 for sealing is provided between the pelletizing box 24 and the cutter shaft 22. One side of the sealing component 25 is connected to the pelletizing box 24 by bolts and is provided with a sealing ring 254 to ensure sealing performance; the sealing component 25 is sleeved on the cutter shaft 22, and the side of the sealing component 25 in contact with the cutter shaft 22 is provided with a triple sealing method of "skeleton oil seal" + "labyrinth" + "nitrogen protection", which can strictly prevent the leakage of combustible gas and other gases, avoid environmental pollution and endanger production safety.
