Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of continuous wet granulation, in particular to a disc-shaped granulation block and a dynamic meshing gap analysis method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries have gradually shifted from traditional centralized wet granulation of powders to continuous wet granulation. The core component of continuous wet granulation equipment is the granulation block, whose structural design characteristics directly determine the size and distribution of the granules produced by continuous manufacturing. Currently, there are many types of granulation blocks used in actual production, including circular, disc-shaped, and tooth-shaped ones, but all are mainly designed for operational performance. There is no effective method for quantitative design of their structure and analysis of the dynamic meshing clearance during operation. This makes it difficult to accurately control the particle size obtained by the granulation block after powder processing, often resulting in the particle size of the granules not meeting the expected requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to solve the problem that the existing continuous wet granulation technology has no quantitative design of the granulation block structure and no effective analysis method for the working dynamic meshing gap, which makes it difficult to accurately control the particle size and fails to meet the expected requirements, the present invention provides a disc-shaped granulation block and a dynamic meshing gap analysis method thereof. The outer contour of the disc-shaped granulation block in the rear section is designed based on the inner diameter d1 and outer diameter D1 of the twin screws in the front section of the continuous wet granulator and the gap e1 of the twin screws. On this basis, the meshing of the two granulation blocks is constructed with a relative meshing phase of 90°, and the working dynamic meshing gap S of the two granulation blocks after one rotation is analyzed. 12 After analysis, 9 dynamic gaps S are obtained. 12 The calculation formula provides a basis for obtaining the particle size. Based on the application requirements of the actual particle size, the contour geometric parameters of the disc-shaped granulating block can be adjusted to change the dynamic meshing clearance S. 12 The size of the particles is adjusted to achieve the purpose of adjusting the particle size and its distribution.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a disc-shaped granulating block, comprising a left granulating block, a right granulating block and a screw sleeve, wherein the screw sleeve is provided with an ∞ inner cavity, the left granulating block and the right granulating block are respectively sleeved on the left and right sides of the ∞ inner cavity of the screw sleeve, and are respectively sleeved with the two twin screws of the front section of the continuous wet granulator that rotate in the same direction and mesh with each other, and respectively rotate with the corresponding conveying screw, characterized in that: the outer contour of the left granulating block body is composed of two circumferentially symmetrical concentric arcs and a circumferentially symmetrical transition arc arranged between the two concentric arcs, the center of the transition arc is arranged on the mid-perpendicular line connecting the centers of the two concentric arcs, a through hole is provided in the middle of the left granulating block body, the through hole is a regular hexagonal hole or a regular octagonal hole or an internal spline hole, a coaxial circular boss is provided on the end surface of one end of the left granulating block body, the left granulating block and the right granulating block belong to the same entity, and the meshing phase of the left granulating block and the right granulating block is set to 90 degrees;

[0005] The left and right granulation blocks inherit the conveying characteristics of the twin screws in the front section of the continuous wet granulator. The rotation center distance between the left and right granulation blocks is equal to the center distance of the twin screws. The diameter of the concentric arc is equal to the outer diameter D1 of the twin screw threads. The initial position of the left granulation block is set to be horizontal, and the right granulation block is set to be vertical. The initial gap e0 between the left and right granulation blocks is equal to the twin screw gap e1.

[0006] The rotation centers of the left and right pelletizing blocks are set as O1 and O2 respectively. The center distance calculation formula of the left and right pelletizing blocks is:

[0009] From formula 1, we can get W = d1 (2)

[0010] The calculation formula for the transition arc diameter D2 is:

[0011]

[0012] Where: W is the maximum span of the two transition arcs (mm), B is the chord length of the concentric arc on one side (mm), and D1 is the outer diameter of the twin screw thread (mm);

[0013] The ∞ inner cavity is two inner cylindrical cavities generated by rotating with O1 and O2 as the center and D1+2e1 as the diameter.

[0014] As a further improvement of the present technology, the thickness h1 of the left granulating block body is set to 2-10 mm, the height h2 of the circular boss is set to 0.3-1.0 mm; the outer diameter of the circular boss is equal to the inner diameter d1 of the twin-screw thread.

[0023] Take any point P1 on the arc segments M1C1 and C1E1, and draw lines connecting P1, O1, and O3 to form a triangle △P1O1O3. Use the triangle cosine theorem to determine the calculation formula for P1O1. P1O1 is the rotation radius R1 of any point P1 on the arc segments M1C1 and C1E1 rotating around O1, thus determining the calculation formula for the rotation radius R1.

[0024] Take any point P1 on the arc segments F1D1 and D1N1, draw lines connecting P1, O1, and O4 to form a triangle △P1O1O4.

[0026] S6, the left granulation block and the right granulation block rotate at the same speed and in the same direction at the same time, so that the meshing phase of the left granulation block and the right granulation block is always 90 degrees. During the rotation operation, the sweep points of the outer contours of the left granulation block and the right granulation block on the X axis are set to S1 and S2 respectively, and the distance S between the sweep points S1 and S2 is set to 12 As the dynamic gap between the two granulating blocks, the dynamic gap S of the two granulating blocks on the X axis when the left granulating block and the right granulating block rotate at any angle θ is determined according to the calculation formula of the rotation radius R1 and R2 corresponding to the phase position of the points S1 and S2 on the outer contour. 12 Calculation formula;

[0028] As a further improvement of this technology, the calculation formula of θ1 in step S2 is:

[0029]

[0030] Where: D1 is the outer diameter of the twin screw thread (mm), B is the chord length of the concentric arc (mm).

[0032]

[0033] Where: D2 is the diameter of the transition arc (mm); W is the maximum span between the two transition arcs (mm).

[0034] As a further improvement of the present technology, the rotation radius R1 of the eight arcs A1M1, M1C1, C1E1, E1B1, B1F1, F1D1, D1N1, and N1A1 around the center O1 in step S4 is as follows:

[0035] 1) A1M1 segment:

[0036]

[0037] 2)M1C1 segment:

[0038] Using the cosine theorem in △P1O1O3, we can get:

[0042] 3) C1E1 segment:

[0043] Using the cosine theorem in △P1O1O3, we can get:

[0047] 4) E1B1 segment:

[0048]

[0049] 5)B1F1 segment:

[0050]

[0051] 6) F1D1 segment: Using the cosine theorem in △P1O1O4, we can get:

[0056]

[0057] Solving the above quadratic equation yields:

[0058] 8) N1A1 segment:

[0059]

[0060] Since the calculation formulas for the rotation radius of M1C1 and C1E1, E1B1 and B1F1, F1D1 and D1N1 are consistent, and O1O3=O1O4, the calculation formulas of the eight arcs A1M1, M1C1, C1E1, E1B1, B1F1, F1D1, D1N1, and N1A1 are adjusted to the calculation formulas of the five arcs A1M1, M1E1, E1F1, F1N1, and N1A1, and are set to R 11 、R 12 、R 13 、R 14 、R 15 , the calculation formula (6) is as follows:

[0063] As a further improvement of the present technology, the rotation radius R2 of the eight arcs D2N2, N2A2, A2M2, M2C2, C2E2, E2B2, B2F2, and F2D2 around the center O2 in step S5 is as follows:

[0064] 1) D2N2 segment:

[0065] Using the cosine theorem in △P2O2O4, we can get:

[0069] 2) N2A2 segment:

[0070]

[0071] 3) A2M2 segment:

[0072]

[0073] 4)M2C2 segment: Using the cosine theorem in △P2O2O3, we can get:

[0074]

[0075] Solving the above quadratic equation yields:

[0076]

[0077] 5) C2E2 segment: Using the cosine theorem in △P2O2O3, we can get:

[0078]

[0079] Solving the above quadratic equation yields:

[0080]

[0081] 6) E2B2 segment:

[0082]

[0083] 7)B2F2 segment:

[0084]

[0085] 8) F2D2 segment: Using the cosine theorem in △P2O2O4, we can get:

[0086]

[0087] Solving the above quadratic equation yields:

[0088]

[0089] The calculation formulas for the rotation radius of N2A2 and A2M2, M2C2 and C2E2, E2B2 and B2F2 are consistent. The calculation formulas for the eight arcs D2N2, N2A2, A2M2, M2C2, C2E2, E2B2, B2F2, and F2D2 are adjusted to the calculation formulas for the five arcs D2N2, N2M2, M2E2, E2F2, and F2D2, and are set as R 21 、R 22 、R 23 、R 24 、R 25 , the calculation formula (7) is as follows:

[0090]

[0091] Where: θ is the phase angle (°) of any point P2 on each arc segment, θ1 is the central angle of the concentric arc (°), D1 is the outer diameter of the twin screw thread (mm), D2 is the diameter of the transition arc (mm), and O1O3 is the distance between the centers of the concentric arc and the transition arc (mm).

[0092] As a further improvement of this technology, the dynamic gap calculation formula in step S6 is:

[0093] S 12 =O1O2-(R1+R2)

[0094] According to the arc segment phases corresponding to the five calculation formulas in R1 and the five calculation formulas in R2, the nine-segment dynamic clearance expressions of the two granulating blocks for one rotation can be obtained. The simplified expressions are as follows:

[0095]

[0096] Substituting formulas (6) and (7) into the equations, we can obtain the dynamic clearance S of the left and right material blocks after one rotation: 12 The specific calculation formula (8) is as follows:

[0097]

[0098]

[0099] As a further improvement of this technology, the relationship between the radian a, the rotation speed n, and the time t corresponding to the rotation of the pelletizing block at any angle θ is calculated as follows:

[0100]

[0101] Where: n is the rotation speed of the pelletizing block (r / min), t is the working time (s);

[0102] The pelletizing block can be rotated at any angle

[0103] The working time t1 of two granulating blocks rotating 360° is the dynamic gap S. 12 The change cycle,

[0104] The dynamic clearance S can be obtained 12 The calculation formula of the change period t1 is as follows:

[0105]

[0106] At a fixed speed n, the meshing gap S of the two granulating blocks changes with time t. 12 It changes periodically, and each rotation is a dynamic meshing gap S 12 The faster the speed, the shorter the dynamic gap change cycle to complete a circle.

[0107] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: the present invention adopts a geometric parameterization method to design the structure of a disc-shaped granulation block. In the continuous wet granulation process, the outer contour of the rear disc-shaped granulation block is designed based on the determined inner diameter d1, outer diameter D1 of the screw thread of the front conveying screw and the twin screw gap e1 that meet a certain conveying capacity. On this basis, the meshing of the left granulation block and the right granulation block is constructed, with a relative meshing phase of 90°, and the working dynamic meshing gap S of the two granulation blocks after one rotation is calculated. 12 After analysis, 9 dynamic gaps S are obtained. 12 The calculation formula can accurately calculate the gap value of the meshing disc-shaped granulating block at any time, thus providing a basis for the particle size of the particles. The dynamic gap S 12 The larger the particle size, the greater the proportion of large particles. Based on the application requirements of the actual particle size, the contour geometric parameters of the disc-shaped granulating block (concentric arc diameter, transition arc diameter, concentric arc center angle) can be adjusted to change the dynamic meshing gap S 12 The size of the particles is adjusted to achieve the purpose of adjusting the particle size and its distribution.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0120] like Figure 1 、 2As shown, the embodiment of the present invention includes a left granulating block 1, a right granulating block 2 and a screw sleeve 3, wherein an inner cavity 301 is provided in the screw sleeve 3, and the left granulating block 1 and the right granulating block 2 are respectively sleeved on the left and right sides of the inner cavity 301 in the screw sleeve 3, and are respectively sleeved with the two twin screws rotating in the same direction and meshing with each other in the front section of the continuous wet granulator, and rotate together with the corresponding conveying screws. The outer contour of the left granulating block body 101 is composed of two circumferentially symmetrical concentric arcs 1011 and A transition arc 1012 is provided between two concentric arcs 1011 and is symmetrical in shape. The center of the transition arc 1012 is provided on the perpendicular bisector connecting the centers of the two concentric arcs 1011. A regular hexagonal through hole 102 is provided in the middle of the left granulating block body 101. A coaxial circular boss 103 is provided on one end surface of the left granulating block body 101. The left granulating block 1 and the right granulating block 2 belong to the same entity, and the meshing phase of the left granulating block 1 and the right granulating block 2 is set to 90°.

[0121] The left granulation block 1 and the right granulation block 2 inherit the conveying characteristics of the twin screw in the front section of the continuous wet granulator. The rotation center distance between the left granulation block 1 and the right granulation block 2 is equal to the center distance of the twin screw. The diameter of the concentric arc 1011 is equal to the outer diameter D1 of the twin screw thread. The initial position of the left granulation block 1 is set to be horizontal, and the right granulation block 2 is set to be vertical. The initial gap e0 between the left granulation block 1 and the right granulation block 2 is equal to the gap e1 between the twin screws.

[0122] The rotation centers of the left and right pelletizing blocks are set as O1 and O2 respectively. The center distance calculation formula of the left and right pelletizing blocks is:

[0123]

[0124] Where: d1 is the inner diameter of the twin screw thread (mm), D1 is the outer diameter of the twin screw thread (mm), e1 is the twin screw gap (mm), e0 is the initial gap between the left and right pelletizing blocks (mm), and W is the maximum span of the two transition arcs (mm);

[0125] From formula 1, we can get W = d1 (2)

[0126] The calculation formula for the transition arc diameter D2 is:

[0127]

[0128] Where: W is the maximum span of the two transition arcs (mm), B is the chord length of the concentric arc on one side (mm), and D1 is the outer diameter of the twin screw thread (mm);

Substituting into formulas 1, 2, and 3 respectively, we can obtain O1O2 = 24 mm, W = 19 mm, and D2 = 32.22 mm

[0133] The above establishes a set of disc-shaped granulation block unit structures.

[0134] In the axial direction, every two disc-shaped granulation blocks (left granulation block 1 and right granulation block 2) constitute a group of meshing units. Multiple groups of meshing can be used to form a group of disc-shaped granulation blocks, which all meet the requirement that the meshing disc-shaped granulation blocks have a phase difference of 90°, and the two adjacent disc-shaped granulation blocks on the same axis have a phase difference of 60°.

[0135] The method for analyzing the dynamic meshing clearance of a disc-shaped granulating block according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0136] S1, such as Figure 1 As shown, the left granulating block 1 is initially positioned horizontally, the right granulating block 2 is meshed with the left granulating block 1 at 90°, and the initial gap between the left granulating block 1 and the right granulating block 2 is determined to be e0=e1=0.5mm;

[0137] S2. Based on the concentric arc diameter D1 and the concentric arc chord length B, the calculation formula for determining the central angle θ1 of the concentric arc is as follows:

[0139] Based on the transition arc diameter D2 and the maximum span W of the two transition arcs, the calculation formula for determining the spacing between the concentric arcs and the transition arc centers O3 and O4 is as follows:

[0140]

[0141] S3, taking the left granulation block 1 as the analysis object, establishing the X O1Y1 rectangular coordinates with the rotation center O1 of the left granulation block 1, X is collinear with the center line connecting the two concentric arcs 1011 of the left granulation block 1, Y1 is collinear with the center line connecting the two transition arcs 1012 of the left granulation block 1, and the outer contour of the left granulation block 1 is divided into eight arcs by the four endpoints M1, N1, E1, F1 of the two concentric arcs 1011, the midpoints A1 and B1 of the two concentric arcs 1011 and the midpoints C1 and D1 of the two transition arcs 1012.

[0206] Similarly, because the calculation formulas for the rotation radius of N2A2 and A2M2, M2C2 and C2E2, E2B2 and B2F2 are consistent, the calculation formulas of the eight arcs D2N2, N2A2, A2M2, M2C2, C2E2, E2B2, B2F2, and F2D2 are adjusted to the calculation formulas of the five arcs D2N2, N2M2, M2E2, E2F2, and F2D2, and are set as R21 、R 22 、R 23 、R 24 、R 25 , the calculation formula (7) is as follows:

It can be seen from the figure that the maximum gap in the dynamic gap between the two granulating blocks in this embodiment is 2.514 mm and the minimum gap is 0.5 mm.

[0219] The working time t1 of two granulating blocks rotating 360° is the dynamic gap S. 12 The change cycle,

[0220] The dynamic clearance S can be obtained 12 The calculation formula of the change period t1 is as follows:

[0221]

[0222] In this embodiment, the rotation speed of the pelletizing block is 300 r / min. Substituting into formula 10, we can get:

[0223] t1=0.2s

[0224] The meshing clearance of the pelletizing block is Figure 10 The gap changes periodically, and the dynamic gap change cycle time t1 to complete a 360° cycle is 0.2s.
