Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plastic bottle recycling, and in particular to a plastic bottle recycling processing device. Background Art

[0002] PET plastic bottles have been widely used in the field of plastic packaging. According to life needs, PET plastic bottles are mostly disposable packaging products, so the recycling of PET plastic bottles is becoming more and more important.

[0003] Chinese patent CN112743708B discloses a PET bottle recycling and processing device, which realizes the separation and recycling of bottle caps, labels and bottle bodies, which improves the purity and utilization rate of recycled materials, but still has at least the following problems: 1. It uses a blade to cooperate with a knife barrel to cut the label, so as to achieve label removal. For bottles of different sizes, knife barrels of different sizes need to be matched, and plastic bottles of different sizes cannot be recycled at the same time; 2. Rotary cutting can only be used for plastic bottles with intact and undeformed bottles. However, most of the discarded plastic bottles are incomplete or flat, and at least part of the label is pasted on the bottle body, otherwise the label cannot be fixed on the bottle body. Therefore, due to the adhesive, pure mechanical cutting is also difficult to completely cut off the label at the sticky position; 3. Discarded plastic bottles may have problems such as accumulated liquid and a lot of dust on the bottle body. After removing the bottle cap and label, they are directly flattened and collected, and the collected bottle body still needs further processing; 4. Discarded plastic bottles do not necessarily have bottle caps. For plastic bottles without bottle caps, there is no need to remove the bottle cap step. It is difficult for the current device to distinguish whether there is a bottle cap by itself. Summary of the invention

[0027] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the invention more clearly understood, the invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the present invention provides a plastic bottle recycling and processing device, including a feeding unit 1, a label removal unit 2, a conveying unit 3, a cutting and screening unit 4 and a post-processing unit 5, the feeding unit 1 is used to feed the waste plastic bottles to the label removal unit 2, the label removal unit 2 is used to remove the labels on the waste plastic bottles, the conveying unit 3 feeds the waste plastic bottles without labels to the cutting and screening unit 4, the cutting and screening unit 4 is used to cut the waste plastic bottles without labels into pieces and screen out PET fragments.

[0029] The cutting and screening unit 4 includes a material guide port 41, a cutting roller group 42, a screening pool 43 and a screw conveyor 46. The material guide port 41 is fixed above the cutting roller group 42 and is used to guide the discarded plastic bottles into the cutting roller group 42. The cutting roller group 42 is used to cut the plastic bottles into pieces. The screening pool 43 is arranged below the cutting roller group 42. The screening pool 43 is filled with a water medium. A baffle 47 and a screw conveyor 46 are fixedly provided in the screening pool 43. The baffle 47 is arranged below one side of the cutting roller group 42. The top of the baffle 47 protrudes above the water surface of the water medium and the bottom does not contact the bottom wall of the screening pool 43. The bottom wall of the screening pool 43 below the cutting roller group 42 is inclined. The screw conveyor 46 is vertically arranged on the outside of the baffle 47. A feed port 48 is provided at the bottom of the screw conveyor 46 and a discharge port 413 is provided at the top.

[0030] After the labels are removed, the discarded plastic bottles are left with the bottle body, bottle cap, residual liquid in the bottle and dust on the bottle body. After being processed by the cutting roller group 42, the bottle body and bottle cap are cut into fragments, and other impurities fall into the screening tank 43. For plastic bottles, the bottle body is made of PET material, and the bottle cap is made of common PE material. The polymerization structures of the two plastics are different, so there is a big difference in density. The PET fragments with higher density can sink in the water medium and sink to the bottom wall of the screening tank 43, while the PE fragments with lower density float on the surface of the water medium and will not sink. At the same time, whether it is PE material or PET material, it can maintain stability in normal temperature water. At the same time, the density of water is between PE and PET, so water can be used as a medium to screen PE and PET.

[0031] For some plastic bottles without bottle caps, the cutting roller set 42 can also be used to directly shred them, which does not affect the screening and does not need to additionally distinguish whether the discarded plastic bottles have bottle caps.

[0032] The baffle 47 is placed at the water surface to prevent the PE fragments on the water surface from floating over a large area and reduce the floating range of the PE fragments, which does not affect the collection of the PET fragments and also facilitates the centralized collection of the PE fragments. The bottom wall of the screening tank 43 is tilted, and the PET fragments sunk at the bottom of the screening tank 43 flow along the bottom wall of the screening tank 43 to the vicinity of the screw conveyor 46, and are transported from the feed port 48 at the bottom of the screw conveyor 46 to the discharge port 413 at the top, completing the collection of the PET fragments.

[0033] The post-processing unit 5 includes a processing box 51 , a discharge port 413 is introduced into the top of the processing box 51 , a stirring assembly 52 is arranged in the processing box 51 , a water outlet 53 is opened on the lower box wall of the processing box 51 , and an opening and closing door 54 is arranged at the bottom of the processing box 51 .

[0034] The PET fragments collected by the screw conveyor 46 are mixed with water or other impurities when entering the processing box 51. The PET fragments, water and impurities are effectively dispersed by the stirring component 52, and the water and impurities are screened out through the water outlet 53, and the PET fragments are retained in the processing box 51. The opening and closing door 54 is opened to complete the collection of the PET fragments. Of course, the post-processing unit 5 may also include a drying device, which dries the collected PET fragments for recycling. The drying device can adopt existing technology and will not be described here.

[0035] refer to Figure 7The cutting and screening unit 4 also includes a water wheel 49, which includes a rotating shaft 491 and a plurality of wheel plates 492 equidistantly arranged along the circumference of the rotating shaft 491. Both ends of the rotating shaft 491 are mounted on the screening pool 43. A first driving source for driving the rotating shaft 491 is fixed on the screening pool 43. When the rotating shaft 491 rotates, the wheel plate 492 thereunder can stir the surface of the water medium, and can guide the PE fragments floating on the water surface to the same side of the screening pool 43, so as to facilitate the collection of the PE fragments. The rotation speed of the rotating shaft 491 is adjusted to adjust the guiding speed of the PE fragments.

[0036] Furthermore, a partition 410 is provided on the outside of the water wheel 49 , the top of the partition 410 is higher than the water surface of the water medium, and a discharge port 411 is opened on the bottom wall of the screening tank 43 on the outside of the partition 410 , and a guide plate 412 is fixed at the position of the discharge port 411 .

[0037] The partition 410 can prevent the PET fragments from falling out of the discharge port 411 on the one hand, and can block the water medium on the other hand to prevent the water medium from directly flowing into the discharge port 411. When the water wheel 49 is not rotating, the PE fragments floating on the water surface will not directly fall into the discharge port 411. Only when the water wheel 49 rotates, the wheel plate 492 located below drives the PE fragments on the water surface, lifts the PE fragments and drops them into the discharge port 411. It should be noted that a post-processing unit 5 can also be set at the discharge port 411 to remove impurities and water mixed in the PE fragments.

[0038] Furthermore, the bottom wall of the screening tank 43 includes an inclined portion 44 and a flat portion 45, the flat portion 45 is arranged at the position where the screw conveyor 46 is located, and the inclined portion 44 is inclined downward from the direction from the baffle 47 to the screw conveyor 46. The inclined portion 44 is conducive to the flow of PET fragments to the flat portion 45, and the flat portion 45 is convenient for fixing and installing the screw conveyor 46.

[0039] refer to Figure 8 The stirring assembly 52 includes a second driving source 521, a stirring shaft 522 and a plurality of stirring arms 523. The second driving source 521 is fixed to the top of the processing box 51 and is used to drive the stirring shaft 522. The stirring shaft 522 is vertically arranged in the processing box 51. The stirring arms 523 are vertically arranged on the stirring shaft 522. A brush is wrapped and fixed on the stirring arms 523. A water inlet 55 is opened on the top of the processing box 51.

[0040] The second driving source 521 drives the stirring shaft 522 to rotate and stir. The stirring arms 523 are symmetrically arranged on the stirring shaft 522 to ensure the rotation balance of the stirring shaft 522. A brush is fixed on the stirring arm 523. During the stirring process, water is continuously introduced into the processing box 51 through the water inlet 55. During the stirring process, the brush continuously brushes the PET fragments to clean the PET fragments. At the same time, the water in the processing box 51 can continuously flow out from the water outlet 53 to achieve clean water removal.

[0041] refer to Figure 3 The feeding unit 1 includes a feeding frame 11, a feeding channel 12, two limit plates 13 and two guide plates 14. The feeding channel 12 is fixed on the feeding frame 11. The top of the feeding channel 12 is provided with a bottle inlet 15 for plastic bottles to enter horizontally. A side wall of the feeding channel 12 is provided with a guide groove 16 for the bottle mouth of the plastic bottle to pass through. The feeding channel 12 includes an arc segment 121 and a stable segment 122. The arc segment 121 extends downward in an arc shape from the bottle inlet 15. The stable segment 122 is connected to the end of the arc segment 121. The stable segment 1 A bottle outlet 17 is provided at the end of 22, two limit plates 13 are arranged in parallel on the outside of the bottle outlet 17, the limit plates 13 and the stable section 122 are arranged vertically, two guide plates 14 are arranged in parallel between the two limit plates 13, the height of the guide plates 14 is less than the height of the limit plates 13, a limit rod 18 is fixed to the bottom of the guide plate 14, the plastic bottle on the top of the guide plate 14 can slide to the position of the limit rod 18 under gravity, the limit plate 13 is fixed on the feeding rack 11, and the guide plate 14 is rotatably arranged between the two limit plates 13.

[0042] There are requirements for the direction in which the plastic bottles enter the feeding channel 12 from the bottle inlet 15. The mouths of the plastic bottles should face the same direction, that is, the mouths of the plastic bottles should face the side of the guide groove 16. The height and diameter of the plastic bottles are not limited. As long as the height of the plastic bottles is greater than the height of the feeding channel 12, the plastic bottles will not turn in the feeding channel 12. Due to the existence of the stable section 122, the plastic bottles coming down from the arc section 121 will not fall directly on the guide plate 14, thus avoiding conveying errors.

[0043] The plastic bottle coming down from the arc section 121 pushes the plastic bottle on the stable section 122, and pushes the plastic bottle on the stable section 122 to between the two limit plates 13. Since the height of the guide plate 14 is less than the height of the limit plate 13, the plastic bottle is mounted between the two guide plates 14. A connecting plate is fixed on the same side of the two limit plates 13, and the connecting plate can prevent the plastic bottle from escaping from the limit plate 13. The plastic bottle slides along the two guide plates 14 to the position of the limit rod 18, and the bottle mouth faces downward, and the bottle mouth is mounted between the two limit rods 18. During the sliding process of the plastic bottle, the two sides are restricted by the limit plates 13 and will not run out of the limit plates 13. The position of the limit plates 13 is fixed. Rotate the guide plate 14 to drive the plastic bottle to rotate together until the direction of the plastic bottle is vertical, waiting for transportation by the conveying unit 3.

[0044] refer to Figure 2The feeding unit 1 also includes a conveying channel 19, a conveying plate 110, a guide rod 111 and a guide plate 112. The conveying channel 19 is arranged in the middle of the feeding frame 11. Mounting frames 113 are respectively arranged on both sides of the front section of the conveying channel 19. A conveying belt 114 is arranged in the mounting frame 113. The conveying belt 114 faces the conveying channel 19. A conveying plate 110 is arranged at the rear end of the mounting frame 113. The two conveying plates 110 are respectively arranged on both sides of the conveying channel 19. The guide rod 111 and the guide plate 112 are respectively arranged at the ends of the two conveying plates 110. The guide rod 111 and the guide plate 112 are used to guide the plastic bottles in the standing state to the lying state. The end of the conveying channel 19 is arranged at the position of the bottle inlet 15.

[0045] The two conveyor belts 114 rotate, driving the plastic bottles on the middle conveying channel 19 to move forward and move between the two conveying plates 110. The plastic bottles at the rear push the plastic bottles in the front to continue moving forward. When the plastic bottles move between the guide rod 111 and the guide plate 112, under the guidance of the guide rod 111 and the guide plate 112, the plastic bottles gradually fall down until they are completely laid down and finally fall into the bottle inlet 15.

[0046] Furthermore, the feeding unit 1 also includes a mounting seat 115, a rotating shaft 116 and a third driving source 117. The mounting seat 115 is fixed on the feeding rack 11. The third driving source 117 is fixed on the mounting seat 115 and is used to drive the rotating shaft 116. The two guide plates 14 are fixed on the rotating shaft 116. The outer end of the rotating shaft 116 is rotatably disposed on the limit plate 13.

[0047] Furthermore, the feeding rack 11 is provided with a conveying groove 118, and the guide plate 14 and the limit rod 18 can be rotated into the conveying groove 118; the conveying unit 3 includes a linear conveying module and a clamping rotating member 31, the linear conveying module is arranged directly below the conveying groove 118, the clamping rotating member 31 is movable on the linear conveying module and the clamping part of the clamping rotating member 31 is arranged in the conveying groove 118.

[0048] The clamping rotating member 31 can adopt the existing technology and will not be described in detail here. The guide plate 14 drives the plastic bottle to rotate together. When the plastic bottle is vertical, the bottle mouth faces downward, and the bottle mouth is supported between two limit rods 18. The clamping rotating member 31 moves to the bottle mouth position, clamps the bottle mouth, and drives the plastic bottle to move along the linear conveying module in the conveying groove 118.

[0049] refer to Figure 4The label removal unit 2 includes an air compressor 21, a heating tube 22 and a cylinder push rod 23 fixed on the feeding rack 11. The heating tube 22 is vertically arranged on one side of the conveying groove 118 and on the rear side of the feeding unit 1. The heating tube 22 is provided with an air vent 24 on the side facing the conveying groove 118. The air vent 24 is arranged along the length direction of the heating tube 22. A heating wire is arranged in the heating tube 22. The air compressor 21 introduces compressed air into the heating tube 22 through a pipeline. The cylinder push rod 23 is arranged on one side of the conveying groove 118 and on the rear side of the heating tube 22.

[0050] The clamping rotating member 31 moves the plastic bottle to the position of the heating tube 22, and the high-pressure hot air in the heating tube 22 is ejected from the vent 24 and sprayed toward the plastic bottle. At this time, the temperature of the gas is about 130°C, which can cut off the label on the plastic bottle. At the same time, the clamping rotating member 31 rotates with the plastic bottle at the current position, and the high-pressure hot air continuously blows toward the label and the pasting position of the label and the plastic bottle. The label on the plastic bottle can be completely blown off by the high-pressure hot air without any residue. The plastic bottle after the label is removed continues to move with the clamping rotating member 31. When it moves to the position of the cylinder push rod 23, the clamping rotating member 31 releases the clamp, and the cylinder push rod 23 extends and pushes the plastic bottle into the material guide port 41 for cutting and screening.

[0051] Working principle: the discarded plastic bottles enter the conveying channel 19, and the two conveyor belts 114 rotate, driving the discarded plastic bottles on the middle conveying channel 19 to move forward. When they move between the two conveying plates 110, the plastic bottles at the rear push the plastic bottles at the front to continue to move forward. Under the guidance of the guide rod 111 and the guide plate 112, the plastic bottles gradually fall down, and fall into the bottle inlet 15 under the push of the plastic bottles at the rear, and fall from the arc section 121 of the feeding channel 12 to the stable section 122. The plastic bottles at the rear push the plastic bottles at the stable section 122 to the two limit plates. 13, at this time, the plastic bottle is mounted between the two guide plates 14, and the plastic bottle slides along the two guide plates 14 to the position of the limit rod 18. At this time, the third driving source 117 drives the rotating shaft 116, and the guide plate 14 drives the plastic bottle to rotate. When the plastic bottle is vertical, the bottle mouth faces downward, and the clamping rotating member 31 moves to the bottle mouth position, clamps the bottle mouth, and drives the plastic bottle to move along the linear conveying module in the conveying groove 118. When it moves to the position of the heating tube 22, it stops, and the high-pressure hot air in the heating tube 22 is sprayed to the plastic bottle from the air outlet 24, and the label on the plastic bottle The plastic bottle is cut off, and the clamping rotating member 31 rotates with the plastic bottle at the current position, and the high-pressure hot air continuously blows toward the label and the pasting position of the label and the plastic bottle until the label on the plastic bottle is completely blown off by the high-pressure hot air. The plastic bottle after the label is removed continues to move with the clamping rotating member 31. When it moves to the position of the cylinder push rod 23, the clamping rotating member 31 releases the clamping, and the cylinder push rod 23 extends out and pushes the plastic bottle into the guide port 41. After being processed by the cutting roller group 42, the bottle body and the bottle cap are cut into pieces, and other impurities fall into the screening pool 43. The wheel 49 rotates to guide the PE fragments to the discharge port 411, and the PET fragments sink to the bottom of the water, flow along the bottom wall of the screening tank 43 to the vicinity of the screw conveyor 46, and are transported from the feed port 48 at the bottom of the screw conveyor 46 to the discharge port 413 at the top, and enter the processing box 51.
