[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of polymer exothermic PTC production equipment, in particular to an oil-heating internal mixer for polymer exothermic PTC. Background Art

[0002] PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) material is a semiconductor heating ceramic material. When the external temperature decreases, the resistance value of PTC decreases, and the heat generation will increase accordingly. It is often used in the production and processing of heating cables.

[0003] The heating core of the heating cable is a polymer heating PTC. During production, the raw materials need to be plasticized and mixed in an internal mixer until they are mixed to the degree that meets the heating core.

[0034] Working principle:

[0035] By setting an interlayer cavity 201 in the hopper 2 and an inner cavity 701 in the press seat 7, and using a heat transfer oil circulation heater, the purpose of uniformly heating the hopper 2 and the press seat 7 is achieved by injecting circulating heat transfer oil into the interlayer cavity 201 and the inner cavity 701 for heating, so that the hopper 2 and the press seat 7 can uniformly heat the polymer PTC mixed in the hopper 2, ensuring more uniform mixing;

[0036] Among them, the oil inlet pipe 8 in the interlayer cavity 201 is set at the central position, and hot oil is injected from the highest point. The inclined guide plates 202 are symmetrically arranged on the front and back of the oil inlet pipe 8, and the left and right inclined directions of two adjacent groups of inclined guide plates 202 are opposite. The heat-conducting oil is output from the oil outlet pipe 9 on the upper back side, and under the action of the flow-limiting baffle 203, the heat-conducting oil flow at the position closest to the oil outlet pipe 9 is limited. The distance between the two sides of the interlayer cavity 201 and the oil outlet pipe 9 is moderate, and the heat-conducting oil flow at this location is moderately restricted. The distance between the front position of the interlayer cavity 201 and the oil outlet pipe 9 is the farthest, and the heat-conducting oil flow at this location is not restricted, so that the heat-conducting oil flows evenly forward and backward, left and right in the interlayer cavity 201, ensuring that the heat-conducting oil heats the inside of the hopper 2 evenly to the greatest extent;

[0037] In addition, the oil outlet end of the oil inlet pipe 10 in the pressure seat 7 is set at the central position, and hot oil is injected from the lowest point. The vertical guide plates 704 are arranged equidistantly in the horizontal direction, and the heat transfer oil is output from the oil inlet end of the oil outlet pipe 11 in the top center. Under the action of the flow limiting baffle 702, the heat transfer oil flows evenly from the middle to the two sides, from the middle to the front and back, and from the bottom to the top, thereby ensuring that the heat transfer oil heats the lower surface of the pressure seat 7 evenly to the greatest extent.
