[0036] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0037] The core of the utility model is to provide an extruder feeding system, which can effectively avoid discontinuous feeding of the extruder and powder accumulation inside the belt scale.

[0038] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution provided by the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0039] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 7 The utility model provides an extruder feeding system, comprising: an extruder 4, a feeding hopper 1, a twin-screw conveying scale 2 and a loss-in-weight scale 3.

[0040] The inlet of the extruder 4 is connected to the outlet of the feeding hopper 1. The inlet of the feeding hopper 1 is connected to the outlet of the twin screw conveyor scale 2 and the outlet of the loss-in-weight scale 3 respectively. The outlet of the twin screw conveyor scale 2 and the outlet of the loss-in-weight scale 3 can also be provided with a slide pipe 6 respectively, and connected to the inlet of the feeding hopper 1 through the slide pipe 6.

[0041] The twin screw conveyor scale 2 is used to convey materials. The loss-in-weight scale 3 is used to convey additives.

[0042] It should be noted that the twin screw conveyor scale 2 (also known as the twin screw loss-in-weight scale) delivers the material through two blade screws. The twin screws are installed on the scale platform, and the screws operate stably and reliably. The material of the screw and the scale platform can be 304 stainless steel, etc., which can be changed according to the customer's material properties. The twin screw conveyor scale 2 has the advantages of no material blocking, good performance, large conveying capacity, and no pollution.

[0043] The material may be PC flakes, and the additives may be various additives for mixing with PC flakes.

[0044] The present solution provides an extruder feeding system, wherein the inlet of the feeding hopper 1 is connected to the outlet of the twin-screw conveyor scale 2 and the outlet of the weight loss scale 3, respectively, and the outlet of the feeding hopper 1 is connected to the inlet of the extruder 4. During feeding, the materials and additives are fed into the inlet of the feeding hopper 1 respectively, and directly fall into the extruder 4 through the outlet of the feeding hopper 1. The extruder feeding system removes the single screw conveyor in the prior art, solves the problem of intermittent material feeding, and improves the stability of the operating current of the extruder 4. At the same time, the belt scale in the prior art is replaced with a twin-screw conveyor scale 2, which solves the problems of powder accumulation and belt deviation of the belt scale.

[0045] This solution also includes a feed pipe 5, the two ends of which are connected to the outlet of the feeding hopper 1 and the inlet of the extruder 4 respectively.

[0046] Specifically, the feeding hopper 1 is funnel-shaped as a whole, with an inlet located at the top and opening upward, and an outlet located at the bottom. The feeding pipe 5 is a straight pipe. The feeding hopper 1 and the feeding pipe 5 can be an integrally formed structure, or a split structure.

[0047] In order to prevent the additive from agglomerating on the wall after melting, a vibrating hammer 101 is provided on the outer wall of the feeding hopper 1 and / or the feeding tube 5. Under the continuous vibration of the vibrating hammer 101, the agglomerates on the inner wall of the feeding hopper 1 and / or the feeding tube 5 can be shaken off and quickly slide to the bottom of the feeding hopper 1 and enter the extruder 4 from the outlet.

[0048] There may be multiple vibrating hammers 101 , and the multiple vibrating hammers 101 may be arranged at different positions according to actual conditions.

[0049] Similarly, in order to further prevent the additive from agglomerating on the wall after melting, a chilled water jacket 103 is provided on the outer wall of the feeding hopper 1 and / or the feeding pipe 5. The interior of the chilled water jacket 103 is used to pass chilled water, and the chilled water is added to keep the temperature cold.

[0050] In a specific embodiment, the vertical height range between the twin-screw conveyor scale 2 and the inlet of the feeding hopper 1 is 1m-1.5m, which can ensure that all materials fall into the inlet of the feeding hopper 1 and that there is sufficient installation space between the twin-screw conveyor scale 2 and the feeding hopper 1.

[0051] In addition, the inlet of the feeding hopper 1 is provided with an inclined plate 102, so that the material is dispersed at the inlet of the feeding hopper 1 to flush the surroundings of the feeding hopper 1. The inclined plate 102 can be arranged below the outlet of the twin-screw conveying scale 2 to achieve precise docking.

[0052] Furthermore, the inclination angle of the inclined plate 102 is in the range of 40°-50°. Of course, the inclination angle of the inclined plate 102 may also be in other numerical ranges.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, a 45° inclined plate 102 is added inside the feeding hopper 1 to disperse the PC flakes in the feeding hopper 1 and flush the surroundings of the feeding hopper 1.

[0054] In a specific embodiment, there are multiple inclined plates 102 , and the multiple inclined plates 102 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the inlet of the feeding hopper 1 .
