[0002] In the material processing process of rubber, plastic, paint, ink and other industries, three-roller machines are commonly used key equipment, which realize material grinding, dispersion or rolling through the relative rotation and pressure action between the three rollers. The spacing and pressure between the rollers are the core parameters affecting the processing quality. The traditional three-roller machine adjustment method has the following problems:
[0003] Low spacing adjustment accuracy: existing equipment mostly uses manual worm gear or single bearing seat structure to adjust the roller spacing, which is prone to inconsistent spacing at both ends during adjustment, resulting in uneven stress on the material and affecting product uniformity.
[0004] Pressure detection lag: traditional pressure feedback relies on experience judgment or indirect measurement (such as calculating through drive motor current), which cannot directly detect the actual pressure between the rollers in real time, and is prone to material overpressure or underpressure due to pressure fluctuations.
[0005] Poor adjustment synchronization: when adjusting multiple rollers, the drive mechanisms of each roller are independently controlled, lacking linkage mechanism, making it difficult to ensure roller parallelism during adjustment, especially prone to jamming or deviation during multi-roller linkage adjustment.
[0006] Complex structure and tedious operation: some equipment uses multiple independent drive components to achieve multi-parameter adjustment, resulting in bulky structure, tedious adjustment steps, and high maintenance cost.

[0040] As shown in Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, the support seat 4 is provided with a locking device 21 for fixing the third bearing seat 8, which in this embodiment is a bolt installed on the support seat 4 through a mounting plate, for ensuring that the third roller 3 axis remains fixed during operation.
[0041] The first bearing seat 6, the second bearing seat 7 and the third bearing seat 8 are connected to the pin hole 404 of the support seat 4 through a fixing pin 18 near the outer peripheral end of the respective roller shaft, and are rotatably connected to the corresponding connecting rod at the outer peripheral end away from the roller shaft. Specifically, the first bearing seat 6 is rotatably provided with a first connecting rod 11 at the outer peripheral end away from the first roller 1 shaft, and the first connecting rod 11 is connected to the output end of a first linear drive 10 through a first lifting connecting rod 9 at one end away from the second bearing seat 7, and the first linear drive 10 is used to drive the first connecting rod 11 to move up and down at one end. The first linear drive 10 is vertically installed at the top end of the bottom plate 401 of the support seat 4, and the output end is rotatably connected to one end of the first lifting connecting rod 9 in the length direction, and the other end of the first lifting connecting rod 9 in the length direction is rotatably connected to the first connecting rod 11. The first connecting rod 11 is rotatably connected to a second connecting rod 12 at one end close to the second bearing seat 7, and the connection point of the first bearing seat 6 and the first connecting rod 11 is located between the connection points of the first connecting rod 11 and the first lifting connecting rod 9 and the second connecting rod 12.

[0042] The third bearing seat 8 is rotatably provided with a fourth connecting rod 15 at the outer peripheral end away from the third roller 3 shaft, and the fourth connecting rod 15 is connected to a second linear drive 17 through a second lifting connecting rod 16 at one end away from the second bearing seat 7, and the second linear drive 17 is used to drive the fourth connecting rod 15 to move up and down at one end.

The fourth connecting rod 15 is rotatably connected to a third connecting rod 13 at one end close to the second bearing seat 7, and the third connecting rod 13 is rotatably connected to the outer peripheral end away from the second roller 2 shaft at one end away from the fourth connecting rod 15. The connection point of the second bearing seat 7 and the fourth connecting rod 15 is located between the connection points of the fourth connecting rod 15 and the second lifting connecting rod 16 and the third connecting rod 13, and the connection ends of the second connecting rod 12 and the third connecting rod 13 and the second bearing seat 7 are coaxial. The third connecting rod 13 is also provided with a pressure sensor 14 for real-time detection of the pressure between the second roller 2 and the third roller 3. By providing pressure sensors 14 at both ends of the roller shaft, the consistency of the distance between the two ends of the roller can be determined according to the readings of the two ends, thereby ensuring the parallelism of each roller.
[0043] Through the coaxial connection of the second connecting rod 12 and the third connecting rod 13 with the second bearing seat 7, and the specific layout of each hinge point, it is ensured that the first bearing seat 6 and the second bearing seat 7 can produce coordinated swing movements around the respective fixed pins 18 when the first linear drive 10 or the second linear drive 17 is in action, so as to ensure that the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 always keep parallel movement.
[0044] As shown in Figure 3 The first linear drive 10 and the second linear drive 17 each include a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder vertically mounted on the support seat 4, and a stepping motor or a pneumatic stepping motor driving the lifting thereof. Precise displacement adjustment is realized through the stepping motor / pneumatic stepping motor driving the pneumatic cylinder / hydraulic cylinder, and then the corresponding rollers are pushed to be pressed against each other through the bearing seat; at the same time, the pneumatic cylinder or the hydraulic cylinder can realize automatic pressure relief through the internal pressure valve, so as to avoid mechanical damage caused by rigid contact between the rollers.
[0045] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment further proposes a regulating method of the linkage regulating mechanism for roller spacing and pressure detection, including the following steps:
[0046] The third bearing seat 8 at both ends of the third roller 3 is fixed through the locking device 21, the second linear drive 17 is driven to act, and the output end thereof pushes one end of the fourth connecting rod 15 to move up and down through the second lifting connecting rod 16; the fourth connecting rod 15 drives the second bearing seat 7 to swing around the fixed pin 18 through the third connecting rod 13, and the second bearing seat 7 drives the first bearing seat 6 to swing synchronously through the second connecting rod 12, so that the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 translate relative to the third roller 3, and the spacing between the third roller 3 and the second roller 2 is regulated; the pressure is monitored through the pressure sensor 14 on the third connecting rod 13.
[0047] The third bearing seat 8 and the second linear drive 17 are kept fixed, the first linear drive 10 is driven to act, and the output end thereof pushes one end of the first connecting rod 11 to move up and down through the first lifting connecting rod 9, and the first connecting rod 11 drives the first bearing seat 6 to swing around the fixed pin 18, so as to regulate the spacing between the first roller 1 and the second roller 2; the pressure is monitored through the pressure sensor 14 on the second connecting rod 12.
[0048] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment further proposes a three-roller machine, which includes the above-mentioned linkage regulating mechanism for roller spacing and pressure detection, and further includes a rotary drive mechanism 5 driving the first roller 1, the second roller 2 and the third roller 3 to rotate, and the rotation direction of the second roller 2 is opposite to that of the first roller 1 and the third roller 3.
[0049] As shown in Figures 1-2As shown, the rotary drive mechanism 5 comprises a first gear 501, a second gear 502, a third gear 503, a fourth gear 504 and a rotary drive module 505. The first gear 501 and the second gear 502 are respectively keyed to the axially adjacent one end of the first roller 1 and the second roller 2, and are engaged with each other; the third gear 503 is keyed to the axially opposite end of the second roller 2, and the fourth gear 504 is keyed to the axially adjacent one end of the third roller 3 close to the third gear 503, and the two are engaged with each other. The output shaft of the rotary drive module 505 can be selectively drivingly connected with the rotating shaft of the first roller 1, the second roller 2 or the third roller 3; in the present embodiment, it is preferably drivingly connected with the rotating shaft of the third roller 3, which comprises a servo motor mounted on the bottom plate 401 of the support seat 4, a driving wheel keyed to the output end of the motor, and a driven wheel keyed to the axially one end of the third roller 3, and the driving wheel and the driven wheel are drivingly connected through a synchronous belt; chain wheel and chain transmission or gear direct engagement transmission can also be adopted to adapt to the transmission requirements under different working conditions. At this time, the three rollers are driven to rotate through the engagement of the fourth gear 504, the third gear 503, the second gear 502 and the first gear 501; if the output shaft is connected with the second roller 2, the first roller 1 and the third roller 3 can be directly driven by the two side gears respectively, and the transmission principle is consistent.
[0050] The output shaft of the rotary drive module 505 is drivingly connected with the rotating shaft of the third roller 3,
[0051] When the rotary drive module 505 works, it drives the third roller 3 to rotate; the fourth gear 504 is engaged with the third gear 503, driving the second roller 2 and the third roller 3 to rotate in opposite directions, the second gear 502 is engaged with the first gear 501, in turn driving the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 to rotate in opposite directions, and the transmission speed ratio between the first roller 1, the second roller 2 and the third roller 3 is 1:2.5-3.5:6-13.
[0052] It should be particularly pointed out that the adjustment mechanism will not affect the normal work of the gear transmission system when adjusting the roller spacing, and the core protection is as follows:
[0053] Gear engagement and matching design: when the first gear 501, the second gear 502, the third gear 503 and the fourth gear 504 are selected, the center distance change corresponding to the maximum adjustment stroke of the roller is reserved, the engagement gap and the tolerance range can cover the slight center distance change in the adjustment process, and the continuous transmission is ensured.
[0054] Bearing seat swing trajectory matching: the swing trajectory of the first bearing seat 6, the second bearing seat 7 and the third bearing seat 8 around the fixed pin 18 is precisely calculated, the relative position of the rotation center and the gear engagement point is constant, the engagement angle change is controlled within the allowable error, and the transmission jamming is avoided.
[0055] In order to facilitate the feeding and discharging, the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 are provided with feeding baffles 19 at the axial ends thereof through supports, and the support seat 4 is provided with a discharging hopper 20 at one end thereof which is inclined downward.
[0056] Working principle:
[0057] Calibration stage: before starting, the readings of the pressure sensors 14 on the second connecting rods 12 (or the third connecting rods 13) at the same axial ends are adjusted to be consistent by adjusting the first linear drive 10 and the second linear drive 17, so as to ensure that the axial end-to-end distances of the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 and the second roller 2 and the third roller 3 are uniform, and the installation error is eliminated.
[0058] Processing stage: the material is guided by the feeding baffles 19 to the space between the first roller 1 and the second roller 2, the distance between the two rollers is adjusted to a set value by the first linear drive 10, and the pressure sensor 14 monitors the rolling pressure in real time; the three rollers are driven to rotate in reverse at a set speed ratio by the rotary drive mechanism 5, the material is further processed after being preliminarily rolled between the second roller 2 and the third roller 3, and finally discharged from the discharging hopper 20.

[0060] Separation mode: the first roller 1, the second roller 2 and the third roller 3 are all separated and kept at a certain distance, which is suitable for equipment maintenance, initial debugging and material switching.
[0061] Mixing mode: the third roller 3 and the second roller 2 are kept at a certain larger distance, the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 are in pressure mixing mode, keeping constant pressure, which is suitable for pre-mixing of multi-component materials to realize uniform dispersion of materials by pressure extrusion without fine grinding, typical applications include cosmetic paste homogenization and lithium battery slurry preliminary mixing; or gap mixing mode, the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 keep a constant gap, which is suitable for stirring and mixing of low-viscosity materials (such as paint color paste blending), and the shear force generated by the reverse rotation of the rollers is used to realize mixing, which avoids the splashing of materials caused by excessive pressure, typical applications include water-based ink color matching and adhesive base material mixing.
[0062] Grinding mode: the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 and the third roller 3 are all pressure mode, suitable for ultra-fine grinding of high-hardness materials (such as ceramic powder, metal powder), the particle size is reduced from microns to nanometers through two-stage pressure extrusion, typical applications include electronic paste grinding, ultra-fine processing of pharmaceutical intermediates; the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 are gap mode, and the second roller 2 and the third roller 3 are pressure mode, suitable for materials that are first screened and then ground (such as paint containing coarse particles), the gap between the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 is used for filtering large particle impurities, and the pressure between the second roller 2 and the third roller 3 is used for refining qualified particles, typical applications include impurity removal of ink and particle size reduction of concealer for cosmetics; the first roller 1 and the second roller 2, and the second roller 2 and the third roller 3 are all gap mode, suitable for precision machining with extremely high requirements on particle size distribution (such as optical film coating materials), the material thickness is controlled through fixed gap, and uniform shearing is achieved through high speed ratio, typical applications include grinding of photoresist for liquid crystal display and preparation of coating materials for aerospace.
[0063] Feedback regulation: if the pressure sensor 14 detects that the pressure deviates from the set value or the reading difference at both axial ends exceeds the threshold value, the control system immediately adjusts the roller spacing through the first linear drive 10 or the second linear drive 17, ensures uniform stress on the material, and maintains processing accuracy.
[0064] As shown in Figures 6-7 , the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is the installation form of the rollers, at this time, the structure of the support seat 4 and the installation form of the first linear drive 10 and the second linear drive 17 need to be adjusted adaptively, as shown in Figure 6 , the second roller 2 is arranged above the first roller 1 on one side, and the third roller 3 is arranged above the second roller 2 away from the first roller 1 on one side; as shown in Figure 7 , the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 are at the same height, and the third roller 3 is arranged above the second roller 2 away from the first roller 1 on one side; Figures 6-7 , the installation form shown in the figure corresponds to the vertical arrangement of the first linear drive 10 and the second linear drive 17, and the height of the vertical plate 402 is adjusted correspondingly.
