DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the utility model more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the utility model are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the utility model. However, the utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the utility model, so the utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0023] See also Figures 1 to 3The embodiment of the present application provides a continuous production device of a papermaking auxiliary agent AKD surface sizing agent, including an outer cylinder 1, an inner cylinder 2 and a rotary drive mechanism 6. A leg is fixed to the lower part of the outer cylinder 1. The inner cylinder 2 passes through the outer cylinder 1 and is coaxially arranged with the outer cylinder 1. The inner cylinder 2 is rotatably sealed and connected to the outer cylinder 1 through a bearing or an oil seal. The rotary drive mechanism 6 drives the inner cylinder 2 to rotate; a plurality of partitions 3 are fixed in the outer cylinder 1 along its length direction. The partitions 3 divide the inner cavity of the outer cylinder 1 into a plurality of stirring chambers 4. The inner cylinder 2 passes through the partitions 3. The inner cylinder 2 and the partitions 3 are rotatably sealed. The inner cylinder 2 is connected, or the inner cylinder 2 and the partition 3 are gap-matched, and a small amount of material can flow through the gap between the inner cylinder 2 and the partition 3; the partition 3 is provided with a flow hole 31, and each stirring chamber 4 is connected through the flow hole 31, and each stirring chamber 4 is provided with a stirring assembly 5, and the stirring assembly 5 includes a spiral blade 51, and the spiral blade 51 is fixedly installed on the inner cylinder 2; the upper part of one end of the outer cylinder 1 is provided with a feed port 11, and the upper part of the other end of the outer cylinder 1 is provided with a discharge port 12, and the discharge port 12 is set to three, which can be used for three kinds of raw materials to enter, and can also be set to one, two, or four in other embodiments. A refrigerant is introduced into the inner cylinder 2, and the refrigerant can be cooling water. The refrigerant exchanges heat with the raw materials through the inner cylinder 2, absorbs the heat generated by the reaction of the raw materials, and keeps the temperature of the material in the outer cylinder 1 suitable.

[0024] In this embodiment, the inner cylinder 2 is driven to rotate by the rotary drive mechanism 6, and the raw material is added into the outer cylinder 1 through the feed port 11. The raw material first enters the first stirring chamber 4, and the inner cylinder 2 drives the spiral blade 51 to rotate. The spiral blade 51 stirs the raw material and squeezes and pushes the raw material to move toward the discharge port 12. The raw material enters the next stirring chamber 4 through the flow hole 31 until it moves to the last stirring chamber 4 connected to the discharge port 12 and is discharged from the discharge port 12. While the discharge port 12 is discharging the material, the feed port 11 continues to add material to achieve continuous production.

[0025] By providing the partition 3 and the flow hole 31, the flow rate of the raw material can be reduced, and the stirring time of the raw material in the stirring chamber 4 can be increased, thereby improving the stirring and mixing effect. The overall volume of the device is small, the space occupied is small, and the cost is low.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, to drive the inner cylinder 2 to rotate, refer to Figure 1 The rotary drive mechanism 6 includes a driving motor 61, a driving pulley 62, a driven pulley 63 and a transmission belt 64. The driving pulley 62 is installed at the output end of the driving motor 61, and the driven pulley 63 is installed on the inner cylinder 2. The driving pulley 62 and the driven pulley 63 are connected by a transmission belt 64. The driving motor 61 drives the driving pulley 62 to rotate, and the driving pulley 62 drives the driven pulley 63 and the inner cylinder 2 to rotate through the transmission belt 64.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, in order to facilitate the inner cylinder 2 to always communicate with the refrigerant during the rotation process, please refer to Figure 1 , both ends of the inner cylinder 2 are provided with rotary joints 7. The rotary joints 7 are connected with the refrigerant pipeline to facilitate the circulation of refrigerant into the inner cylinder 2.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, in order to facilitate the mixing chamber 4 to be filled with raw materials, the mixing chamber 4 below the discharge port 12 can be discharged only after the material is fully stored. Figures 1 to 3 The feed port 11 and the discharge port 12 are both arranged at the top of the outer cylinder 1. The feed port 11 is arranged at the top of the outer cylinder 1 to prevent leakage of materials in the stirring chamber 4 below the feed port 11 when the materials are not full. The discharge port 12 is arranged at the top of the outer cylinder 1 so that the materials can be discharged only after the stirring chamber 4 below the discharge port 12 is full of materials, thereby preventing the materials from flowing out in advance and improving the material mixing effect.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the material mixing effect can be further improved. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The stirring assembly 5 further includes a movable shear plate 52 and a fixed shear plate 53. A plurality of evenly distributed movable shear plates 52 are fixed on the circumference of the inner cylinder 2, and a fixed shear plate 53 cooperating with the movable shear plate 52 is fixed on the inner wall of the outer cylinder 1. When the inner cylinder 2 rotates, the movable shear plate 52 is driven to rotate, and the movable shear plate 52 stirs the material when it rotates. When the movable shear plate 52 rotates, the fixed shear plate 53 is matched with the gap of the fixed shear plate 53, and the material is sheared, so that the material is fully mixed.

[0030] To avoid the situation that a flow hole 31 is provided and the flow hole 31 is blocked so that the material cannot flow, please refer to Figure 3 , a plurality of flow holes 31 are provided. At the same time, in order to avoid the situation where too many flow holes 31 are provided, resulting in an increase in the flow volume and the material being discharged before the stirring time is insufficient, please refer to 1 and Figure 3 The stirring assembly 5 further includes a baffle plate 54, which is fixedly mounted on the inner cylinder 2, and is slidably sealed with the baffle plate 3. The baffle plate 54 is provided with conducting holes 55 corresponding to the flow holes 31. The flow holes 31 are unevenly distributed on the baffle plate 54. When the baffle plate 54 rotates, most of the flow holes 31 are closed. At the same time, only a small number of flow holes 31 connected with the conducting holes 55 can flow. As the baffle plate 54 rotates, the conducting holes 55 at different positions are connected with the corresponding flow holes 31 for flow, so that materials at different positions in a cross section of the stirring chamber 4 can flow, thereby avoiding blockage and not increasing the flow rate.

[0031] The fixed shear plate 53 is fitted with the spoiler disk 54 in a clearance, and can also scrape off part of the material attached to the spoiler disk 54, thereby reducing the adhesion of the material and allowing the material to be fully mixed.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, in order to facilitate the control of the discharge and the detection of the discharge flow rate, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , a discharge pipe 13 is installed at the discharge port 12, and a flow meter 14 and a solenoid valve 15 are installed on the discharge pipe 13. The discharge pipe 13 is L-shaped, and the flow meter 14 is installed on the vertical section of the discharge pipe 13, which is convenient for accurately detecting the discharge flow rate. When the material is fed for the first time for production, the material may not be stirred enough and flow to the discharge port 12. At this time, the solenoid valve 15 can be closed first to block the discharge pipe 13 to prevent the material from being discharged when it is not fully stirred. After a period of time, the solenoid valve 15 is opened again to discharge the material, and then the material can be discharged while replenishing the raw materials to achieve continuous production.
