Specific embodiments

[0018] The technical solutions in the present invention will be further described below with reference to the drawings and embodiments.

[0019] As Figure 1 shown, an underwater pelletizing device is proposed in an embodiment of the present invention, including a feeding pipe 1, a main pipeline 18, a main box body 2, a plurality of partition boards 20, a plurality of rotary cutters 6, a motor 10 and a magnetic coupling assembly. A plurality of mutually parallel partition boards 20 are vertically arranged inside the main box body 2, and there is a gap between adjacent partition boards 20. The partition board 20 and the main box body 2 form an interlayer 17 with an opening downward. A first cavity 15 is arranged inside the partition board 20, and a plurality of first discharge ports 16 communicating with the first cavity 15 are arranged side by side on the side surface of the partition board 20. The main pipeline 18 is horizontally arranged inside the main box body 2 and sequentially passes through the centers of the partition boards 20. The main pipeline 18 is communicated with the first cavity 15, and the molten material enters the interlayer 17 from the first cavity 15 and the first discharge port 16. The rotary cutter 6 is rotatably connected to the main pipeline 18, and the rotation plane of the rotary cutter 6 fits the plane where the first discharge port 16 is located. When the material is extruded from the first discharge port 16, the rotary cutter 6 cuts the material into granular form. The magnetic coupling assembly is fixedly connected to the rotary cutter 6 and is used to drive a plurality of rotary cutters 6 to rotate synchronously. The motor 10 is fixedly arranged outside the main box body 2 and is used to drive the magnetic coupling assembly to rotate. The magnetic coupling assembly is used to prevent the liquid in the main box body 2 from overflowing. The top of the interlayer 17 is provided with a water inlet 3, and the bottom of the main box body 2 is provided with a water outlet 19. The feeding pipe 1 is fixedly arranged outside the main box body 2, and one end of the feeding pipe 1 is communicated with the main pipeline 18. In this embodiment, a detachable cover plate is arranged on the top of the main box body 2, and the partition board 20 and the main box body 2 are detachably connected by bolts. The feeding pipe 1 conveys the molten material to the main pipeline 18. The particles cut by the rotary cutter 6 are quickly cooled in the liquid.

[0020] As Figure 2 shown, preferably, the rotary cutter 6 includes a tool holder 14 and a plurality of blades 12. The tool holder 14 is of a radial structure, and the center of the tool holder 14 is rotatably connected to the main pipeline 18. The blades 12 are fixedly arranged on the tool holder 14, and the side edges of the blades 12 are in contact with the partition plate 20. An inclined surface is arranged on the side edge of the tool holder 14, and the side surface of the blade 12 is fixedly connected to the inclined surface. After long-term use, the blade 12 can be disassembled for maintenance and repair.

[0021] Preferably, the magnetic coupling assembly includes a connecting pipe 7 and a plurality of permanent magnets. The connecting pipe 7 is sleeved outside the main pipeline 18, and both ends of the connecting pipe 7 are fixedly connected to the tool holders 14 at the left and right ends of the same sandwich layer 17 respectively. The permanent magnets are fixedly arranged on the tool holders 14, and the magnetic poles of the permanent magnets are alternately arranged in sequence along the circumferential direction of the tool holder 14. A rotating disk 11 is fixedly arranged on the output shaft of the motor 10, and permanent magnets matching with the tool holders 14 are arranged around the rotating disk 11. In this embodiment, based on the principle of attraction between opposite sexes, through the alternate attraction of the magnetic poles of the permanent magnets and the rotating disk 11, the tool holder 14 on one side of the partition plate 20 can drive the tool holder 14 on the other side to rotate when rotating.

[0026] Preferably, heating wires are arranged inside the first cavity 15 and the second cavity 4 to prevent the material from cooling down and blocking the first discharge port 16 and the second discharge port 5.

[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them.
