Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of plastic recycling technology, and in particular relates to an improved plastic waste recycling and processing device. Background Technology
[0002] Plastic recycling refers to the process of recycling and reusing waste plastics using specific recycling technologies. In my country, waste plastics mainly consist of plastic films, plastic filaments and woven products, plastic packaging boxes and containers, daily-use plastic products, and plastic bags. Plastic recycling typically includes steps such as plastic crushing, recycling, and reprocessing. Currently, in plastic recycling, plastic recycling cleaning equipment is usually required to complete the cleaning step in the plastic waste recycling process.
[0003] In plastic recycling, lightweight plastics that float on the water and heavier plastics that sink to the bottom are usually crushed by the crusher in the previous process and then sent to the washing equipment for cleaning.
[0004] One application, numbered 202420225781.3, describes a plastic recycling device comprising a plastic debris washing tank and a feeding conveyor belt. The inner wall of the washing tank is fixedly connected to several evenly distributed support rods, the bottom of which are detachably connected to plastic debris pressing screens. A drive roller is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the washing tank, and a stirring rod for agitating the plastic debris is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the drive roller. While this plastic recycling and cleaning equipment can limit floating plastic debris through the pressing screens, the coverage area of the pressing screens is limited by the feed inlet, and the relatively fixed position of the pressing screens makes it inconvenient to remove them for maintenance or cleaning of the washing tank. Furthermore, it has poor cleaning effect on settled plastic.
[0005] Currently available plastic waste recycling and cleaning equipment typically consists of a cleaning tank equipped with ultrasonic cleaning components or spray cleaning components, as well as other components for cleaning plastics. It also features a chain conveyor to transport the plastics out of the cleaning tank. While this type of cleaning equipment can transport heavier plastics that have sunk to the bottom, it is not convenient for collecting plastic fragments that are floating on the surface.

[0040] Working principle
[0041] In this invention, the plastic fragments produced in the previous process are transported to the cleaning tank 1 via an external conveying device. During cleaning, the retrieval box assembly 3 is positioned on the outer left side of the cleaning tank 1. The first linear motor 14 drives the moving frame 21 to move, causing the moving frame 21 to move to the upper middle part of the cleaning tank 1. The reduction motor 273 drives one of the gears 274 to rotate, thereby causing the two gears 274 to mesh and rotate, opening the rotating rod 275 in an inverted V shape. As the rotating rod 275 opens, the winding motor 22 drives the stainless steel shaft to rotate. The pressure net 24 is released. When the two pressure rods 277 move in opposite directions, the pressure net 24 is opened into a flat shape. The first cylinder 272 drives the inverted U-shaped frame 27 to descend, thereby immersing the pressure rods 277 into the lower part of the water surface of the cleaning tank 1. The pressure net 24 covers the upper part of the cleaning tank 1, immersing the lightweight plastic fragments into the lower part of the water surface. The lightweight plastic fragments and the heavier plastic fragments that sink to the bottom are cleaned by the ultrasonic generator 5 and the ultrasonic vibrating plate, which improves the applicability to plastics of different densities and allows for more flexible release and retraction of the pressure net 24 and pressure rods 277.
