[0002] Most plastic polymers have the advantages of light weight, stable chemical properties, no rust, good impact resistance, good transparency and wear resistance, etc. Therefore, the polymer processing industry has developed rapidly, and the twin-screw extruder, as one of the main polymer processing equipment, has been rapidly developed and widely used for its excellent processing performance; the screw extruder relies on the pressure and shear force generated by the rotation of the screw to fully plasticize and evenly mix the material and form it through the die; plastic extruders can be basically classified into twin-screw extruders, single-screw extruders, and the rare multi-screw extruders and screwless extruders.

[0003] When using the extruder in the prior art, the material is added into the hopper, and then the material enters the barrel from the hopper. However, in actual use, when adding materials, multiple materials are usually added at the same time. When the material enters the barrel from the feed port, the material is easily blocked at the feed port, resulting in residual material in the hopper, wasting material, which needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0019] In summary, the utility model mainly has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] By setting a material pipe, when using it, the operator can put the plastic raw material into the material pipe. The top diameter of the material pipe is large, which can facilitate the operator to put the raw material into the material pipe and reduce the probability of raw material spilling. When the granular raw material is put into the material pipe, the rotating part can be used to rotate the rotating shaft. The rotation of the rotating shaft can make the material stripping plate rotate along the inner wall of the material pipe, so that the raw material adhering to the inner wall of the material pipe can be scraped off. At the same time, the material stripping plate can also disturb the raw material in the material pipe when it rotates, avoiding the problem that the raw material cannot fall into the extrusion pipe due to the support effect formed by the interaction between particles. When the rotating part rotates the rotating shaft to rotate the material stripping plate, the material stripping plate can move up and down in the material pipe, which can further improve the disturbance effect on the raw material and effectively avoid the accumulation of raw materials in the material pipe. Compared with the screw extruder in the prior art, the present application solves the problem that when the material enters the barrel from the feed inlet, the material is easily blocked at the feed inlet, resulting in residual material in the hopper.

[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0031] An extrusion pipe 100, wherein two screw mechanisms 101 are arranged in the extrusion pipe 100;

[0032] A feed port 102 is provided at the top of the extrusion pipe 100;

[0033] The material pipe 103 is disposed in the feed port 102, and the diameter of the material pipe 103 gradually decreases from the top to the bottom;

[0034] A rotating shaft 104 is disposed in the material tube 103, and an inner wall of the material tube 103 is provided with a material shifting plate 105 corresponding to the rotating shaft 104;

[0035] A driving component is disposed between the extrusion pipe 100 and the screw mechanism 101, and is used to synchronously rotate the two screw mechanisms 101, so that the two screw mechanisms 101 rotate in opposite directions;

[0037] The material-diverting plate 105 can reciprocate up and down when rotating along the inner wall of the material tube 103;

[0038] By setting the material tube 103, when in use, the operator can put the plastic raw material into the material tube 103. The top diameter of the material tube 103 is relatively large, which can facilitate the operator to put the raw material into the material tube 103 and reduce the probability of the raw material spilling. When the granular raw material is put into the material tube 103, the rotating shaft 104 can be rotated by the rotating component. The rotation of the rotating shaft 104 can make the material stripping plate 105 rotate along the inner wall of the material tube 103, so that the raw material adhered to the inner wall of the material tube 103 can be scraped off. At the same time, the material stripping plate 105 can also disturb the raw material in the material tube 103 when rotating. The problem that the raw material cannot fall into the extrusion pipe 100 due to the support effect formed by the interaction between particles is avoided.

[0044] By setting up a bellows, when it is used, due to the shape of the top of the bellows, when the material shifting plate 105 rotates, it is restricted by it and the force of the spring 302, so that the material shifting plate 105, the material shifting rod 106 and the rotating shaft 104 can move up and down, which can achieve the purpose of improving the dispersion of raw materials and shifting the raw materials to prevent accumulation.

[0045] As a further feature of the present invention, the rotating component further includes a first motor 303 connected to the extrusion pipe 100 , and a driving shaft of the first motor 303 is connected to the transmission shaft 202 ;
