Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of extruders, in particular to a vacuum connection component of an extruder. Background Art

[0002] The extruder relies on the pressure and shear force generated by the rotation of the screw to fully plasticize and evenly mix the materials and form them through the die. By vacuuming the extruder, bubbles and moisture in the material can be removed, the melting of the plastic material can be accelerated, and material reactions can be avoided. However, when the extruder is vacuumed, the vacuum pump is directly connected to the barrel of the extruder through a pipeline. The small molecules generated by the high temperature and shearing action in the barrel of the extruder will enter the pipeline through the extruder barrel. Since the temperature of the pipeline is much lower than the temperature inside the barrel, the small molecules will liquefy into droplets on the inner wall of the pipeline, accumulate in the pipeline, and flow back into the barrel, causing product contamination and affecting product quality. It is also inconvenient to clean the inside of the pipeline. Utility Model Content

[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the vacuum connection assembly of the extruder of the embodiment of the utility model is used to vacuum the barrel of the extruder, and includes a barrel 1, a vacuum tube 2, an upper end cover 3 and a mounting seat 4. The barrel 1 includes an upper opening 11 and a lower opening 12, and a liquid collecting tank 5 is arranged around the middle of the inner wall of the barrel 1, and the liquid collecting tank 5 is used to collect the liquid flowing down the inner wall of the barrel 1; one end of the vacuum tube 2 is connected to the barrel 1 and transports the liquid in the liquid collecting tank 5, and the other end is connected to the vacuum generator; the upper end cover 3 is a sealing cover provided on the upper opening 11 of the barrel 1; the mounting seat 4 is provided on the outer periphery of the lower opening 12 and is connected to the barrel 1.

[0027] When in use, the mounting base 4 is installed on the barrel of the extruder by passing the bolts through the mounting holes on the mounting base 4, and the barrel is kept connected to the barrel 1; the vacuum tube 2 is connected to the vacuum generator, and the vacuum generator is started to evacuate the barrel of the extruder, and during the vacuuming process, small molecules will liquefy into droplets on the inner wall of the barrel 1, and the liquid will flow downward and be collected by the liquid collecting tank 5, and finally discharged from the vacuum tube 2.

[0028] Based on the above arrangement, the liquid collecting tank 5 is used to collect the liquid flowing down the inner wall of the barrel 1, thereby reducing the liquid contamination of the material in the barrel and improving the processing quality of the extruder; the upper end cover 3 is sealed on the upper opening 11 of the barrel 1, and opening the upper end cover 3 facilitates cleaning of the interior of the barrel 1.

The function of the bearing platform 15 is to keep the upper end cover 3 stably installed.

[0030] Specifically, a sealing ring 16 is provided between the bearing platform 15 and the upper end cover 3. The sealing ring 16 can keep the upper end cover 3 on the bearing platform 15 with a sealing effect, and keep the cylinder 1 from leaking during the vacuuming process.

[0031] Further, one end of the upper end cover 3 is connected to the bearing platform 15 through a hinge shaft 31, and the other end of the upper end cover 3 is provided with a handle 32. By holding the handle 32, the upper end cover 3 can be rotated to open, so as to facilitate cleaning of the inner wall of the cylinder 1 and the liquid collecting tank 5.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the cylinder 1 includes an upper cylinder portion 1a and a lower cylinder portion 1b disposed below the upper cylinder portion 1a, and the inner diameter of the upper cylinder portion 1a is greater than the outer diameter of the lower cylinder portion 1b. The larger size of the upper cylinder portion 1a is conducive to collecting more droplets.

[0033] In one implementation, the liquid collecting tank 5 is horizontally disposed between the upper barrel 1a and the lower barrel 1b. The liquid collecting tank 5 can collect the liquid dripping from the upper barrel 1a, reduce the contamination of the material in the barrel of the extruder by small molecules, and improve the quality of the extruder processed product. Specifically, the width of the liquid collecting tank is 2-5 mm.

[0034] Specifically, the vacuum tube 2 is disposed on the side wall of the upper tube 1a. The vacuum tube 2 can remove the air in the upper tube 1a.
