Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of foamed EVA production, and more particularly to a foamed EVA production line. Background Technology
[0002] EVA foam material has excellent chemical properties and is widely used in the manufacture of shoe materials, bag linings, toy materials, sporting goods materials, building materials, and various emerging applications such as electronic components and automotive interiors.
[0003] In actual production, the main steps of EVA foam material production are as follows: first, the raw materials are fed into a mixer for refining, then fed into an extruder to be extruded into sheets, then the sheets are cut, and after the sheets are cooled, they are transported to a foaming chamber for foaming to obtain foamed EVA material.
[0004] Foamed EVA material is made from several components in a certain proportion. Changes in the proportion of components will affect the quality and performance of the foamed EVA material. Therefore, it is necessary to precisely control the amount of components added. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to more accurately control the amount of foamed EVA components added, this application provides a foamed EVA production line.
[0006] The foamed EVA production line provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A foamed EVA production line includes, in sequence, a mixer, a feeding mechanism, an extruder, a cutting mechanism, a cooling mechanism, and a foaming chamber. The feeding mechanism is used to transport materials from the mixer to the extruder, which is used to extrude sheets. The cutting mechanism is used to cut the sheets, and the cooling mechanism is used to cool the sheets. The mixer has a feed inlet and a fixed column. A movable frame is hinged to the fixed column and is located above the feed inlet. The hinge axis of the movable frame is horizontal. A receiving groove is provided on the movable frame, and a placing frame is slidably connected to it. The placing frame slides close to or away from the bottom of the receiving groove. A placing trough is provided on the placing frame, and an inclined surface is provided on the inner wall of the bottom of the placing trough. The inclination direction of the inclined surface is perpendicular to the hinge axis of the movable frame. An elastic element is provided between the placing frame and the inner wall of the bottom of the receiving groove.
[0008] A positioning component is hinged to the movable frame. A slot 1 is provided on the material placement frame for the positioning component to be engaged. The slot 1 is located on the side of the positioning component away from the bottom of the receiving groove. A slot 2 is provided on the fixed column for the positioning component to be engaged. An elastic component 2 is provided on the hinge shaft of the positioning component. The elastic component 2 abuts against the movable frame, so that the positioning component tends to engage with the slot 1.
[0009] When the positioning element is located in the second slot, the positioning element disengages from the first slot; when the positioning element is located in the first slot, the positioning element disengages from the second slot.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when feeding is required, the component is put into the feeding trough, which increases the weight of the feeding frame. This, in turn, squeezes the elastic element one, causing the feeding frame to move closer to the bottom of the receiving trough. When the required amount of component is fed, the positioning element and the first slot are aligned. Under the action of the second elastic element, the positioning element is inserted into the first slot and disengaged from the second slot. Due to the inclined surface, the weight of the component on one side of the hinge axis of the movable frame is greater than the weight of the component on the other side of the hinge axis of the movable frame. Therefore, the movable frame flips towards the side with the greater weight, thereby pouring the component in the feeding trough into the feed inlet, realizing quantitative feeding of the component and enabling more precise control of the amount of component fed.
[0011] After the components have been poured out, the movable frame is flipped in the opposite direction so that the positioning component and the second slot are realigned. Then, the positioning component is flipped and the material placement frame is moved so that the positioning component and the first slot are disengaged and the positioning component is inserted into the second slot. The movable frame can then be positioned to continue weighing.
[0012] Preferably, the material placement frame includes a frame body slidably connected to the movable frame and an adjusting block slidably connected to the frame body. The sliding direction of the adjusting block is parallel to the sliding direction of the frame body. The material placement groove is provided on the frame body, the slot is provided on the adjusting block, and the frame body is provided with a positioning component for positioning the adjusting block.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, setting up an adjustment block and a positioning component, the adjustment block can be moved according to the amount of raw material to be added, so that the slot is moved to match the required mass and amount of raw material to be added. Then, the adjustment block can be positioned by the positioning component. It can be adjusted according to the amount of different raw materials, which improves the applicability of the material placement frame. There is no need to set up multiple material placement frames according to the type of components, thus reducing production costs.
[0014] Preferably, the positioning component includes a rack on the adjusting block, a gear rotatably connected to the frame, an insert block slidably connected to the frame, and an operating block rotatably connected to the insert block. The gear and the rack mesh, the gear has a slot for inserting the insert block, and the operating block is threadedly connected to the frame.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to move the adjustment block, the operating block is twisted to drive the insert block out of the slot, and the adjustment block can be moved. After the adjustment block is moved to the corresponding position and the insert block and the slot are aligned, the operating block is twisted to drive the insert block into the slot. The gear is positioned by the insert block abutting against the inner wall of the slot, thereby positioning the rack and the adjustment block, making it more convenient to position the adjustment block.
[0016] Preferably, a top block is slidably connected to the adjusting block, and the top block slides out of or into the adjusting block. The frame has several grooves for the top block to be inserted into, and the grooves are evenly spaced along the sliding direction of the adjusting block. The end of the top block away from the adjusting block has an arc surface, which is used to abut against the inner wall of the groove. The adjusting block has an elastic element three, which abuts against the top block so that the top block tends to extend out of the adjusting block.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the adjusting block is moved, the inner wall of the groove presses against the arc surface, pushing the top block away from the groove. When the top block moves to the next groove, the top block is stuck into the groove under the action of the elastic element three and hits the inner wall of the groove, producing a sound. Since the distance between adjacent grooves is consistent, the mass that the material block needs to increase / decrease is consistent each time the top block moves to the next groove. The adjusting block can be precisely adjusted according to the number of times the adjusting block produces a sound.
[0018] Preferably, a scraper is slidably connected to the frame, the scraper is located inside the material trough, and the scraper slides close to or away from the bottom of the material trough.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a scraper, when pouring raw materials, the scraper moves away from the bottom of the trough under the action of gravity, thereby scraping the raw materials adhering to the inner wall of the trough into the feed hopper, reducing the residue of raw materials in the trough, thereby reducing the error in the amount of raw materials input caused by the adhesion of raw materials, and further improving the accuracy of raw material input.
[0020] Preferably, the scraper includes a plate body slidably connected to the material trough and a weight slidably connected to the plate body. The weight is located on the side of the plate body away from the bottom of the material trough and at one end of the plate body. The weight is located on the side of the material trough with the greatest depth. The weight slides closer to or away from the plate body.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, when the raw material is poured, due to the tilt of the plate, the inner wall of the material trough cannot contact the plate. The weight slides away from the plate under the action of gravity, thereby scraping off the raw material adhering to the inner wall of the material trough that is not in contact with the plate. In addition, the weight can carry out the raw material located at the connection between the weight and the plate during the movement, further reducing the residue of raw material in the material trough.
[0022] Preferably, the inner wall of the receiving groove is provided with a limiting groove, the frame includes a main body and a limiting part, the material placement groove is provided on the main body, and the limiting part is located in the limiting groove.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, a limiting groove and a limiting part are set. The inner wall of the limiting groove abuts against the limiting part, thereby limiting the movement range of the frame and reducing the situation where the frame detaches from the movable frame when pouring raw materials.
[0024] Preferably, the movable frame is provided with an elastic element four, which is located in the limiting groove and on the side of the limiting part away from the bottom of the receiving groove.
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, when the raw material is poured, the limiting part impacts the elastic element and vibrates, thereby shaking off the raw material adhering to the scraper and reducing the residue of raw material on the scraper.
[0026] Preferably, the fixed column is provided with an elastic element five, which abuts against the movable frame, so that the movable frame has the tendency to flip so that the positioning element and the slot one are aligned. The positioning element is provided with an arc-shaped surface, which is used to abut against the inner wall of the slot one.
[0027] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up elastic element five, after the components are poured out, the movable frame flips under the action of elastic element five, so that the positioning element and the slot two are realigned. At this time, the frame is squeezed by elastic element one, pushing the positioning element to flip, so that the positioning element is inserted into the slot two, realizing the automatic reset of the movable frame. There is no need to manually flip the movable frame and the positioning element, making weighing more convenient.
[0028] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0029] 1. When feeding is required, the component is put into the feeding trough, causing the feeding frame to move closer to the bottom of the receiving trough. When the required amount of component is fed, the positioning part is engaged in the first slot and disengaged from the second slot. The movable frame flips over to the side with the greater weight, thereby pouring the component in the feeding trough into the feed inlet, realizing quantitative feeding of the component and enabling more precise control of the amount of component fed.
[0030] 2. By setting adjustment blocks and positioning components, the feeding amount can be adjusted according to different raw material inputs, which improves the applicability of the feeding frame and eliminates the need to set multiple feeding frames according to the type of components, thus reducing production costs;
[0031] 3. By setting a top block, when the adjusting block is moved, the top block hits the inner wall of the groove and makes a sound. Since the distance between adjacent grooves is consistent, the mass that the material block needs to increase / decrease is also consistent each time the top block moves to the next groove. The adjusting block can be precisely adjusted according to the number of times the adjusting block makes a sound when it is moved. Attached Figure Description

A limit groove 9114 is provided on the inner wall of the bottom of the recessed groove 9113.
[0055] See Figure 5 and Figure 6 The main body 911 is provided with a positioning component 17, which is used to position the adjusting block 92. The positioning component 17 includes a rack 171, a gear 172, an insert block 173, and an operating block 174. The rack 171 is located on the side of the adjusting block 92 parallel to the sliding direction and is fixedly connected to the adjusting block 92. The rack 171 passes through the main body 911 in a direction away from the adjusting block 92 and slides along the sliding direction of the adjusting block 92 and is connected to the main body 911. The gear 172 is located on the side of the rack 171 away from the adjusting block 92 and is rotatably connected to the main body 911. The rotation axis of the gear 172 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the adjusting block 92, and the gear 172 and the rack 171 mesh.
[0056] See Figure 5 and Figure 6The insert 173 is a rectangular block. The insert 173 is slidably connected to the limiting through groove 9114 and fits against the inner wall of the limiting through groove 9114.

The rotation axis of the operating block 174 is coaxial with the rotation axis of the gear 172.
[0057] In practical use, when it is necessary to move the adjusting block 92, twist the operating block 174 to drive the insert block 173 out of the slot 1721, and the adjusting block 92 can be moved. After the adjusting block 92 is moved to the corresponding position and the insert block 173 and the slot 1721 are aligned, twist the operating block 174 to drive the insert block 173 into the slot 1721. The gear 172 is positioned by the insert block 173 abutting against the inner wall of the slot 1721, and the rack 171 and the adjusting block 92 are positioned.
[0058] See Figure 6 An adjusting block 92 has a recess 922 on its end face near the bottom of the mounting groove 9112. A top block 18 is slidably connected to the adjusting block 92, and the top block 18 is located within the recess 922. The top block 18 can slide out of or into the recess 922. The end of the top block 18 away from the adjusting block 92 protrudes outward to form an arc surface 181. An elastic element 19 is also fixed to the adjusting block 92. The elastic element 19 is located within the recess 922 and on the side of the top block 18 near the bottom of the recess 922. The opposite ends of the elastic element 19 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom of the recess 922 and the top block 18, respectively. The elastic element 19 abuts against the top block 18, causing the top block 18 to tend to extend out of the recess 922. In this embodiment, the elastic element 19 is a spring.
[0059] See Figure 6 The inner wall of the mounting groove 9112 is provided with several grooves 9115. The grooves 9115 are evenly spaced along the sliding direction of the adjusting block 92. The grooves 9115 are for the top block 18 to be inserted into, and the arc surface 181 is used to abut against the inner wall of the groove 9115.
[0060] In practical use, when the adjusting block 92 is moved, the inner wall of the groove 9115 presses against the arc surface 181, pushing the top block 18 away from the groove 9115. When the top block 18 moves to the next groove 9115, the top block 18 is stuck into the groove 9115 under the action of the elastic element 19 and hits the inner wall of the groove 9115 to make a sound. Since the distance between two adjacent grooves 9115 is the same, the adjusting block 92 can be precisely adjusted according to the number of times the adjusting block 92 makes a sound when it is moved.
[0061] See Figure 6 and Figure 8 A through hole 83 is provided on the outer side wall of the movable frame 8. The through hole 83 is located above the fixed post 7 and on the side of the slot 921 near the bottom of the receiving slot 81. The through hole 83 is connected to the receiving slot 81 and is used to connect the slot 921. A positioning member 20 is hinged on the movable frame 8. The positioning member 20 is located on the outside of the movable frame 8. The positioning member 20 includes a hinge part 201, a first snap-in part 202 and a second snap-in part 203. The hinge part 201 is located on the outside of the movable frame 8 and is hinged to the movable frame 8.

[0062] See Figure 8 and Figure 9 Both the first snap-in part 202 and the second snap-in part 203 are located on the side of the hinge part 201 near the movable frame 8. The first snap-in part 202 is hinged to the hinge part 201, and the hinge axis of the first snap-in part 202 is parallel to the hinge axis of the hinge part 201. The second snap-in part 203 is fixedly connected to the hinge part 201, and the first snap-in part 202 and the second snap-in part 203 are located on opposite sides of the hinge axis of the hinge part 201. The first snap-in part 202 is slidably connected in the through hole 83, and the first snap-in part 202 slides closer to or away from the adjusting block 92. The first slot 921 is for the first snap-in part 202 to be snapped into. The end of the first snap-in part 202 away from the hinge part 201 protrudes outward to form an arc-shaped surface 24, which is used to abut against the inner wall of the first slot 921.
[0063] See Figure 8 and Figure 9 The outer wall of the fixed column 7 is provided with a second slot 71 for the second slot 203 to be inserted. When the second slot 203 is located in the second slot 71, the first slot 202 is disengaged from the first slot 921. When the first slot 202 is located in the first slot 921, the second slot 203 is disengaged from the second slot 71.
[0064] See Figure 8 and Figure 9 An elastic element 23 is mounted on the hinge shaft of the hinge portion 201. The elastic element 23 abuts against the movable frame 8, so that when the slot 921 and the insertion portion 202 are aligned, the hinge portion 201 tends to drive the insertion portion 202 to engage with the slot 921. In this embodiment, the elastic element 23 is a torsion spring.
[0065] See Figure 4A slide rail 72 is provided on the outer wall of the fixed column 7. The length direction of the slide rail 72 is set along the flipping direction of the movable frame 8. A limiting slider 84 is integrally fixed on the movable frame 8. The limiting slider 84 slides along the length of the slide rail 72 and is connected within the slide rail 72. An elastic element 25 is also fixed on the fixed column 7. The elastic element 25 is located within the slide rail 72 and on one side of the limiting slider 84 along the sliding direction. The elastic element 25 and the limiting slider 84 are fixedly connected. The elastic element 25 abuts against the limiting slider 84 and thus against the fixed column 7, so that the movable frame 8 has the tendency to flip so that the locking part 202 and the slot 921 are aligned. In this embodiment, the elastic element 25 is a spring.
[0066] See Figure 1 and Figure 10 The feeding mechanism 2 is used to transport the material on the internal mixer 1 to the extruder 3. The feeding mechanism 2 includes a frame 21 and a material cart 22. The material cart 22 is slidably connected to the frame 21. A chain drive mechanism 211 and a motor 212 are installed on the frame 21. The material cart 22 is fixed on the chain of the chain drive mechanism 211. The motor 212 drives the sprocket of the chain drive mechanism 211 to rotate, thereby driving the chain of the chain drive mechanism 211 to rotate, thus driving the material cart 22 to move.
[0067] See Figure 1 The extruder 3 is used to extrude sheet material, and the cutting mechanism 4 is used to cut sheet material. The cutting mechanism 4 includes a frame 41, a cutter 42 and a drive cylinder 43. The cutter 42 slides and moves up and down on the frame 41, and the drive cylinder 43 is fixed on the frame 41. The drive cylinder 43 drives the cutter 42 to move up and down.
[0068] In practical use, the cutting mechanism 4 is used to cut the sheet into materials of uniform size, so that the staff can take the appropriate amount of material as needed and send it into the foaming chamber 6 for foaming.
[0069] See Figure 1 The cooling mechanism 5 is used to cool the sheet material. The cooling mechanism 5 includes a frame 3 51 and several cooling rollers 52. The cooling rollers 52 are arranged vertically and horizontally. The cooling rollers 52 are rotatably connected to the frame 3 51, and the rotation axis of the cooling rollers 52 is set horizontally. Each cooling roller 52 is provided with a cooling channel. Each cooling roller 52 is coaxially rotatably connected with an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe. The inlet pipe and the outlet pipe are located at opposite ends of the cooling channel, and both the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe are connected to the cooling channel. In actual use, the sheet material is attached to the cooling roller 52, and cooling water is introduced into the inlet pipe. The sheet material is cooled by contact heat transfer, which speeds up the sheet material setting.
[0070] See Figure 1The foaming chamber 6 is used to place the sheet material for foaming. In actual use, a heating device is installed in the foaming chamber 6 to heat the sheet material and promote foaming. The heating device can be a heating plate or a heating strip.
[0071] The implementation principle of a foamed EVA production line according to an embodiment of this application is as follows:
[0072] When feeding is required, the adjusting block 92 is moved and positioned according to the required amount of raw material to be fed, so that the slot 921 is moved to match the required mass and amount of raw material to be fed with the through hole 83.
[0073] Then, the raw material is put into the feeding trough 9111, which increases the weight of the feeding frame 9. This causes the elastic element 14 to be squeezed, making the feeding frame 9 move closer to the bottom of the receiving trough 81. When the amount of raw material is put in reaches the required level, the locking part 202 and the locking groove 921 are aligned. Under the action of the elastic element 23, the locking part 202 is locked into the locking groove 921 and disengaged from the locking groove 71. Due to the setting of the inclined surface 15, the weight of the raw material on one side of the hinge axis of the movable frame 8 is greater than the weight of the raw material on the other side of the hinge axis of the movable frame 8. Therefore, the movable frame 8 flips over towards the side with the greater weight, thereby pouring the raw material in the feeding trough 9111 into the feed inlet 111.
[0074] Simultaneously, the plate 161 moves away from the bottom of the material trough 9111 under the action of gravity, thereby scraping the raw materials adhering to the inner wall of the material trough 9111 into the feed hopper 12. The weight-adding part 1623 slides away from the plate 161 under the action of gravity, thereby scraping off the raw materials adhering to the inner wall of the material trough 9111 that are not in contact with the plate 161. The limiting part 912 hits the elastic element 10 and vibrates, thereby shaking off the raw materials adhering to the scraper 16, reducing the residue of raw materials in the material trough 9, realizing quantitative feeding of components, and enabling more precise control of the amount of components fed in.
[0075] After the components are poured out, the movable frame 8 flips under the action of the elastic element 25, so that the locking part 203 and the slot 2 71 are realigned. At this time, the adjusting block 92 presses the arc surface 24 under the action of the elastic element 14, pushing the locking part 202 to drive the hinge part 201 to flip, so that the locking part 203 is locked into the slot 2 71, realizing the automatic reset of the movable frame 8 and positioning the movable frame 8 to continue weighing.
[0076] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
