Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of solid waste treatment, in particular to a waste plastic grinding machine and a processing method for producing asphalt modifiers. Background Art

[0002] The contents in this section merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and may not constitute prior art.

[0003] Asphalt modifiers refer to a type of substance added to base road asphalt to significantly improve its physical, chemical and road performance. Base asphalt has deficiencies in extreme temperatures, fatigue resistance, durability, etc. Modifiers can give asphalt a variety of performance improvements through physical mixing or chemical reactions. Common types of modifiers include polymers, rubbers, plastics, and others such as sulfur, rock asphalt and natural asphalt.

[0004] Using waste plastics to make asphalt modifiers has the following benefits: it can effectively solve white pollution, realize waste resource utilization, reduce landfill and incineration, while reducing the cost of raw materials for asphalt modifiers, extending the life of roads, and on the other hand, it can also effectively improve the performance of asphalt pavement.

[0005] In the actual production process of asphalt modifiers, it is usually necessary to grind waste plastics into fine particles, usually millimeter-level or even micron-level powders. On the one hand, it can increase the specific surface area and promote melting and dispersion. On the other hand, it can ensure uniform dispersion during the mixing process with asphalt to prevent agglomeration, optimize the coating and adhesion with the aggregate, and achieve the effect of improving the final road performance.

[0006] However, in the process of grinding waste plastics, a large amount of heat will be generated. Since plastics have a low melting point, the large amount of heat generated during the grinding process can easily cause the plastics to melt, which in turn leads to a decrease in the grinding effect of the plastics. As a result, the plastics cannot be ground into suitable plastic powder, resulting in a decrease in the quality of the asphalt modifier and ultimately affecting the pavement performance of the asphalt pavement. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a waste plastic grinding machine and processing method for asphalt modifier production, which can improve the grinding effect of waste plastics and improve the production quality of asphalt modifiers.

[0008] In one aspect, the present invention provides a waste plastic pulverizer for producing asphalt modifiers.

[0009] The purpose of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0010] A waste plastic grinding machine for producing asphalt modifiers comprises a feeding device, a freezing device and a grinding device which are interconnected; the feeding device comprises a hopper, the top of which is open, a spray assembly is provided at the top opening of the hopper, a cutting assembly is provided in the hopper, and the cutting assembly is located below the spray assembly; the freezing device comprises a freezing box and a liquid nitrogen conveying assembly, the freezing box is connected to the hopper, and the output end of the liquid nitrogen conveying assembly is connected to the freezing box; the grinding device comprises a grinding box and a circulating air cooling assembly, the grinding box is connected to an end of the freezing box away from the hopper, the output end of the circulating air cooling assembly is provided at the top of the grinding box, and an air returner is provided on the bottom wall of the grinding box, and the air returner is connected to the input end of the circulating air cooling assembly.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, in actual use, when waste plastic needs to be ground, the waste plastic is first put into the hopper, and the spray component is started to spray the plastic to achieve the effect of moisturizing the surface of the waste plastic and removing static electricity. Then, the waste plastic is cut by the cutting component, and the plastic blocks after cutting enter the freezer through the bottom of the hopper. The liquid nitrogen for freezing is transported into the freezer by the liquid nitrogen conveying component to freeze the plastic blocks in the freezer. The frozen plastic blocks enter the grinding box for grinding. During the grinding process, the circulating air cooling component is used to circulate air in the grinder to achieve the cooling effect. After the grinding is completed, the grinder can be opened to take out the ground plastic powder. The plastic is frozen by liquid nitrogen. On the one hand, the plastic fragments can be transformed from a tough state to a brittle state, which is convenient for subsequent grinding. On the other hand, the plastic fragments are pre-cooled, which can effectively reduce the temperature in the grinding box, thereby further reducing the heat melting during the plastic grinding process, thereby effectively improving the grinding effect, and then improving the production quality of the asphalt modifier, thereby improving the pavement performance of the asphalt pavement to a certain extent.

[0012] In some possible embodiments, the cutting assembly includes a cutting roller and an abutment portion, the abutment portion is fixedly arranged in the hopper, two cutting rollers are provided, and the two cutting rollers are arranged on both sides of the abutment portion, and the two cutting rollers are provided with spiral cutting blades with opposite rotation directions, and abutment blade grooves that are adapted to the cutting blades are provided on both sides of the abutment portion. A driving assembly is provided on the hopper, and the driving assembly is used to drive the two cutting rollers to move toward or away from each other, and a driving source for driving the cutting rollers to rotate is provided on the hopper.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when cutting waste plastics, the cutting roller is driven to rotate by the driving source. As the cutting roller rotates, the cutting blade can be driven to rotate. The waste plastics can be cut by the mutually adapted cutting blades and abutment grooves. In actual use, according to the different types and sizes of the waste plastics, the two cutting rollers are driven to move by the driving component, so as to adjust the distance between the cutting blade and the abutment groove. It can be suitable for waste plastics of different types and sizes, and effectively improves the scope of application of the device.

[0014] In some possible embodiments, the driving assembly includes a first screw and a first motor, a first slide groove is opened on the hopper, the first screw is rotatably set in the first slide groove, the first motor is set on the hopper, the output shaft of the first motor is transmission-connected to the first screw, and two first sliders are slidingly set in the first slide groove, the two first sliders are connected to the two cutting rollers one-to-one, and the first sliders are threadedly sleeved on both ends of the first screw.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to drive the cutting roller to move, the first motor is started to drive the first lead screw to rotate. As the first lead screw rotates, the first slider can be driven to move in the first slide groove, and then the two cutting rollers can be driven to move, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting the distance between the cutting blade and the abutting blade groove. In the above transmission process, the transmission is carried out through the mutually engaged threads between the first lead screw and the first slider, and the transmission is more stable and reliable, and the thread transmission accuracy is higher. At the same time, the thread transmission has a certain self-locking effect, which can effectively prevent the cutting roller from slipping when cutting waste plastic, thereby improving the overall reliability of the device during actual use.

[0016] In some possible embodiments, two strip holes are opened in the horizontal direction on the inner wall of the hopper, and a strip block is slidably arranged in the strip hole. The cutting roller is rotatably arranged on the strip block, the top of the first slide groove is connected to the bottom of the strip hole, and the strip block is connected to the first slider one by one. A baffle is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the hopper, and the baffle is arranged at the orifice of the strip hole. The baffle is in sliding contact with the side wall of the strip block close to the cutting roller.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the distance between the cutting blade and the abutting blade groove is adjusted, as the first slider moves in the first slide groove, the corresponding strip block can be driven to move in the strip hole. During the movement of the strip block, the baffle slides and contacts with the side wall of the strip block, which can block the gap between the strip block and the hopper. When cutting hard plastics such as plastic plates, some plastic flying chips are inevitably generated. By blocking the plastic flying chips with the baffle, the plastic flying chips can be effectively prevented from falling into the first slide groove through the strip hole, thereby providing good protection for the transmission components such as the first screw and the first slider in the first slide groove, thereby reducing the maintenance cost of the device during later use.

[0018] In some possible embodiments, a driving shaft is rotatably provided on each bar block, one end of the driving shaft is fixedly connected to the cutting roller, and the other end extends out of the hopper, and a driven wheel is coaxially fixed on the end of each driving shaft away from the cutting roller, and a mounting block is provided on the outer wall of the hopper for sliding in a vertical direction, and the mounting block is located in the middle of the two bar blocks, and a mounting shaft is rotatably provided on the mounting block, and a first driving wheel and a second driving wheel are sequentially provided on the mounting shaft along the axial direction of the mounting shaft, and a driving belt is wound around the first driving wheel and the second driving wheel, and the other end of the driving belt on the first driving wheel is wound around the driven wheel on the left, and the other end of the driving belt on the second driving wheel is wound around the driven wheel on the right, and the driving source is used to drive the first driving wheel and the second driving wheel to rotate in opposite directions, and a lifting assembly is provided on the hopper, and the lifting assembly is used to drive the mounting block to move on the hopper.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when cutting waste plastic, the driving source is started to drive the first driving wheel and the second driving wheel to rotate, and then the driven wheel is driven to rotate through the corresponding driving belt. As the driven wheel rotates, the driving shaft can be driven to rotate, thereby driving the corresponding cutting roller to rotate, thereby realizing the cutting of the waste plastic. When adjusting the horizontal position of the cutting roller, while starting the first motor to drive the first screw to rotate, the Hengjiang component is started to drive the mounting block to move accordingly on the hopper. When the two cutting rollers approach each other, the mounting block moves downward on the hopper, and when the two cutting rollers move away from each other, the mounting block moves upward on the hopper, which can always keep the drive belt taut, thereby ensuring the drive of the driven wheel. By setting a driving source, the two cutting rollers can be driven to rotate synchronously, ensuring that the rotation speed of the two cutting rollers and the distance between the abutment part are the same, ensuring the same cutting effect of the plastic put into the hopper, and to a certain extent ensuring the quality and effect of subsequent grinding.

[0020] In some possible embodiments, a receiving groove is opened on the inner walls on both sides of the hopper along the axial direction of the cutting roller, a collection box is slidably arranged in the receiving groove along the length direction of the receiving groove, and an abutment plate is fixedly arranged on the collection box, and the end of the abutment plate away from the collection box is used to abut against the cutting roller, and the collection box is detachably connected to the hopper.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, after the cutting of the waste plastic is completed, the two cutting rollers are driven by the driving component to move toward the receiving groove, so that the abutment plate abuts against the cutting roller. At this time, the driving source is started to drive the cutting roller to rotate, and the abutment plate slides in the receiving groove driven by the spiral cutting blade on the surface of the cutting roller. In the above process, as the abutment plate moves, the nylon braided belt, plastic oil film, etc. wrapped around the cutting roller can be cleared, and the scraped nylon braided belt and plastic oil film fall into the collection box under the abutment plate. After cleaning, the collection box is removed from the hopper to recycle and organize the waste plastic in the collection box, thereby ensuring the cutting effect of the cutting roller when the device works next time.

[0022] In some possible embodiments, a buffer groove is opened at the top of the first sliding block along the length direction of the first sliding groove, a buffer block is slidably arranged in the buffer groove, the top of the buffer block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the strip block, and an elastic member is arranged in the buffer groove, and the elastic member acts on the strip block to drive the strip blocks to move in a direction away from each other.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, in the process of driving the cutting roller to move toward the accommodating groove, the first slider moves in the first slide groove, thereby driving the strip block to move, thereby driving the cutting roller to move. After the cutting roller abuts the abutment plate, the first slider continues to move in the first slide groove, and at this time the strip block cannot move because the cutting roller abuts the abutment plate, thereby driving the buffer block to move in the buffer groove and squeezing the elastic part, so that the elastic part is compressed to store elastic potential energy, and finally the cutting roller is tightly abutted with the abutment plate. At this time, as the cutting roller rotates, the waste plastic wrapped around the cutting roller can be effectively scraped and cleaned.

[0024] In some possible embodiments, a downwardly inclined feed pipe is provided at the bottom of the hopper, the other end of the feed pipe is connected to the freezer, the liquid nitrogen delivery assembly includes a liquid nitrogen source and a delivery pipe, the delivery pipe includes a top branch and a bottom branch, one end of the top branch is connected to the liquid nitrogen source, and the other end is connected to the top of the freezer, one end of the bottom branch is connected to the liquid nitrogen source, and the other end is connected to the bottom of the freezer.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the cut plastic fragments leave the hopper through the feeding pipe and enter the freezing box. At this time, the liquid nitrogen source is turned on, and the liquid nitrogen used for freezing is input into the freezing box from the top of the freezing box through the top tube, and enters the freezing box from the bottom of the freezing box through the bottom branch pipe. In the freezing box, a liquid nitrogen freezing airflow is formed that flows up and down, which can quickly freeze the plastic fragments in the freezing box and improve the freezing efficiency.

[0026] In some possible embodiments, a blanking hole is opened at the bottom of the freezer, and a blanking plate for closing the blanking hole is slidably provided in the freezer, and the blanking hole is connected to a blanking pipe, and the other end of the blanking pipe is connected to the grinding box; the circulating air cooling component includes a cyclone separator, a filter dust collector and a cooler, a first return air duct is connected between the return air device and the cyclone separator, a second return air duct is connected between the cyclone separator and the filter dust collector, a third return air duct is connected between the filter dust collector and the cooler, and a fourth return air duct is connected between the cooler and the top of the grinding box.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, after the plastic fragments are frozen, the blanking plate is opened, and the plastic fragments enter the grinding box through the blanking pipe. The circulating air cooling component is turned on while the grinding box is started. While the plastic fragments are being ground, a circulating air-cooled air flow channel is formed in the grinding box. The air flow enters the first return air duct through the return air device and then enters the cyclone separator. The inhaled air flow is separated by the cyclone separator to separate the plastic powder that meets the grinding standards and the plastic powder that does not meet the standards is unified and regular. The air flow then enters the filter dust collector through the second return air duct to filter out the dust in the air flow, and then enters the cooler through the third return air duct to cool the air flow. The air flow that has completed cooling and cooling flows back into the grinding box through the fourth return air duct to perform circulating air cooling and cooling in the grinding box.

[0028] On the other hand, the present invention provides a method for processing waste plastic pulverizer for producing asphalt modifier.

[0029] A method for processing waste plastic pulverizer for asphalt modification and production, using a pulverizer, comprises the following steps:

[0030] The waste plastic is put into the hopper through the top of the hopper, and the spray component is started to spray a mixture of glycerol and liquid water on the waste plastic; the driving source is started to drive the cutting roller to rotate, and the waste plastic is preliminarily cut into plastic fragments; the plastic blocks pass through the hopper and enter the freezer through the feeding pipe, and the liquid nitrogen source is turned on and liquid nitrogen is transported through the delivery pipe to form a low-temperature environment of less than -40°C in the freezer, which quickly embrittles the plastic fragments and transforms the plastic fragments from a tough state to a brittle state; the blanking plate is opened, and the embrittled plastic fragments enter the grinding box through the blanking pipe, and the grinding box is started to grind the plastic fragments; the circulating air cooling component is turned on to cool the grinding box with air; the grinding box operates for 30-40 seconds to grind the plastic fragments into particles with a diameter of less than 1mm; the grinding box is opened to take out the plastic particles.

[0031] In summary, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention have at least the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0032] 1. By spraying a mixture of glycerin and water, static electricity on the plastic surface is effectively reduced and the material is initially softened. Combined with a bidirectional spiral cutting blade and adjustable spacing, it can accommodate waste plastics of varying hardness and size. The baffle structure prevents plastic chips from falling into the transmission mechanism, ensuring long-term stable operation of the system and creating a uniform material foundation for subsequent cryogenic embrittlement.

[0033] 2. Liquid nitrogen is injected into the freezer via the top and bottom branches, creating a convection low-temperature airflow that rapidly and evenly embrittles the plastic fragments. This embrittlement significantly reduces grinding energy consumption and prevents hot melt adhesion.

[0034] 3. The circulating air cooling component uses a cyclone separator to separate qualified particles, a filter dust collector to remove dust, and a cooler to recover and cool the air flow. This can effectively suppress the temperature rise during the grinding process, effectively reduce the plastic hot melt phenomenon during the plastic grinding process, and at the same time improve the uniformity and purity of the plastic powder;

[0035] 4. When cleaning the cutting roller, the elastic member causes the cutting roller to contact closely with the abutment plate. At this time, as the cutting roller rotates, the waste plastic wrapped around the cutting roller can be effectively scraped and cleaned. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0049] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0050] The following reference Figures 1 to 12 The present invention is described in further detail.

[0051] In one aspect, the present invention provides a waste plastic pulverizer for producing asphalt modifiers.

[0052] Reference Figure 1 , including a feeding device 1, a freezing device 2 and a grinding device 3 which are interconnected.

[0053] Reference Figure 2 The feeding device 1 includes a hopper 11 , the top of the hopper 11 is opened, a spray assembly 4 is provided at the top opening of the hopper 11 , a cutting assembly 5 is provided in the hopper 11 , and the cutting assembly 5 is located below the spray assembly 4 .

[0054] Reference Figure 1 The freezing device 2 includes a freezing box 21 and a liquid nitrogen delivery component 22 . The freezing box 21 is connected to the hopper 11 , and the output end of the liquid nitrogen delivery component 22 is connected to the freezing box 21 .

[0055] Reference Figure 1 The grinding device 3 includes a grinding box 31 and a circulating air cooling component 32. The grinding box 31 is connected to the end of the freezing box 21 away from the hopper 11. The output end of the circulating air cooling component 32 is arranged at the top of the grinding box 31. A return air device 33 is provided on the bottom wall of the grinding box 31. The return air device 33 is connected to the input end of the circulating air cooling component 32.

[0056] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The cutting assembly 5 includes a cutting roller 51 and an abutment portion 52. The abutment portion 52 is fixedly arranged in the hopper 11. There are two cutting rollers 51, which are arranged on both sides of the abutment portion 52. The two cutting rollers 51 are provided with spiral cutting blades 53 with opposite rotation directions. Abutment blade grooves 54 that are adapted to the cutting blades 53 are opened on both sides of the abutment portion 52.

[0057] In actual use, the two cutting rollers 51 rotate in opposite directions. Figure 3 The position in the figure is for reference only. During the process of cutting the plastic, the cutting roller 51 on the left rotates clockwise and the cutting roller 51 on the right rotates counterclockwise. When waste plastic is put into the hopper 11, after the waste plastic contacts the surface of the cutting roller 51, the top of the cutting roller 51 is deflected toward the abutment 52. Therefore, the waste plastic will move toward the direction of contact between the cutting roller 51 and the abutment 52 under its own gravity and the drive of the cutting roller 51. Then, the waste plastic can be cut by the cutting blade 53 and the abutment blade groove 54.

[0059] During actual use, the spray pipe 41 is connected to an external liquid source through a water inlet pipe. The liquid in the liquid source is a mixture of liquid water and glycerin. When cutting waste plastics, especially when cutting nylon braids and plastic oil films (PP / PE), by spraying the mixture of liquid water and glycerin, the toughness of the nylon braids and plastic oil films can be effectively reduced, thereby effectively reducing the entanglement of the nylon braids and plastic oil films with the cutting roller 51, thereby ensuring that during a long working process, the cutting blade 53 on the cutting roller 51 always has a good cutting effect on the plastic.
