BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0010] Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the material box of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0011] In order to further explain the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the predetermined purpose of the utility model, the specific implementation method, structure, characteristics and effects of the present invention are described in detail below in combination with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0012] Embodiment 1:

[0013] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the utility model discloses a drying and conveying device for plastic particles for cable processing, comprising a hopper 2 and a material box 3 on an extruder 1, wherein the material box 3 is a hollow rectangular parallelepiped structure, and the bottom of the material box 3 is an arc surface structure, a fixed shaft 5 is arranged inside the material box 3, and the circumferential direction of the fixed shaft 5 is consistent with the axial direction of the arc surface, a downward connecting rod 7 is arranged on the fixed shaft 5, and a heat pipe 8 is arranged at the lower end of the connecting rod 7, and a plurality of air outlets are arranged on the circumferential side wall of the heat pipe 8, and the interior of the fixed shaft 5 is hollow to form an air flow channel 17, and the heat pipe 8 is provided with a plurality of air outlets. One end is closed, and the other end is connected to the air flow channel 17 of the fixed shaft 5 through the air pipe 9. A high-pressure air pipe 19 is arranged outside the material box 3, and the high-pressure air pipe 19 is connected to the high-pressure air source, and the high-pressure air pipe 19 is connected to the air flow channel 17 of the fixed shaft 5. A heater 18 is arranged on the high-pressure air pipe 19, and the heater 18 is used to heat the high-pressure air; a conveying pipe 13 is arranged between the hopper 2 and the material box 3, and one end of the conveying pipe 13 extends to the bottom of the material box 3, and the other end extends to the inside of the hopper 2, and a negative pressure conveying mechanism 14 is arranged on the conveying pipe 13. A feed port 4 is arranged on the top of the material box 3, and the feed port 4 is in a normally open state.

[0014] In actual work, plastic particles are stored in the material box 3. Under normal circumstances, the stock of plastic particles in the material box 3 will be higher than the position of the heat pipe 8. When the amount of plastic particles in the material box 3 is insufficient, it can be replenished manually. The plastic particles in the material box 3 will be transported to the hopper 2 through the negative pressure conveying mechanism 14 and the conveying pipeline 13. Among them, the negative pressure conveying mechanism 14 is an existing commercially available equipment, and the specific structure will not be repeated. The negative pressure conveying mechanism 14 generates an airflow in the pipeline from one end of the material box 3 to one end of the hopper 2, and the plastic particles in the material box 3 are adsorbed and transported to the hopper 2. The high-pressure gas source conveys high-pressure air to the heater 18 through the high-pressure gas pipe 19, and then conveys it to the heat pipe 8 through the airflow channel 17 and the gas pipe 9. Among them, the heater 18 is an existing commercially available equipment, and the specific structure will be repeated. The heater 18 can be electrically heated, such as heated by the electric heating pipe 8. When the high-pressure airflow passes through the heater 18, it will heat up, so the temperature of the air output from the heat pipe 8 is relatively high, generally around 50°. The hot air output by the heat pipe 8 performs hot air drying on the plastic particles in the material box 3, and the hot air can be discharged from the feed port 4. Since the plastic particles in the material box 3 will change position when the conveying pipe 13 conveys the plastic particles to the hopper 2, the plastic particles around the heat pipe 8 will also change position, and different plastic particles can be heated and dried to improve the quality of cable processing.

[0015] Rotating sleeves 6 are arranged at both ends of the fixed shaft 5, one of which extends to the outside of the material box 3 and is connected to the power mechanism 20 outside the material box 3 by transmission. A rotating ring 11 is arranged on the rotating sleeve 6 through a fixed rod 10, and the rotating rings 11 on the two rotating sleeves 6 correspond to each other. A plurality of stirring rods 12 are arranged between the two rotating rings 11, and the stirring rods 12 are arranged in a ring shape. The diameter of the rotating ring 11 is larger than the diameter of the circumference of the heat pipe 8. Rotating sleeves 6 are arranged at both ends of the fixed shaft 5, and the rotating sleeve 6 at one end is driven to rotate by the power mechanism 20, and a rotating ring 11 is arranged on each rotating sleeve 6 through a fixed rod 10, and a stirring rod 12 is arranged between the two rotating rings 11, so the rotating sleeve 6, the fixed rod 10, the rotating ring 11, and the stirring rod 12 form an integrated structure, which are all driven and connected by the power mechanism 20. The power mechanism 20 can be a combination of an electric motor and a reduction box, and the power mechanism 20 and the rotating sleeve 6 can be driven by a drum belt, or by a gear transmission. When the power mechanism 20 drives the stirring rod 12 to rotate, the plastic particles in the material box 3 can be stirred, so that the plastic particles in the material box 3 are moved, thereby achieving a better drying effect on the plastic particles and further improving the cable quality.

[0016] The hopper 2 is a closed structure, and a plurality of exhaust holes 15 are provided on the top of the hopper 2. Since air will enter the hopper 2 when the conveying pipe conveys plastic particles into the hopper 2, and the plastic particles have a certain speed, in order to prevent the plastic particles from splashing to the outside of the hopper 2 under the action of impact, the hopper 2 is a closed structure, and the exhaust holes 15 are provided on the top for exhausting air.

[0017] The partitions 16 tilted downward are arranged on two opposite side walls inside the hopper 2, and there is a gap between the partitions 16. In order to ensure that the plastic particles in the hopper 2 can remain stable during the conveying process to the extruder 1, that is, the plastic particles below the hopper 2 remain stable, two tilted partitions 16 are arranged in the middle part of the hopper 2, and the connection part between the conveying pipe 13 and the hopper 2 is located above the partition 16, so the sprayed plastic particles will only impact the plastic particles above the partition 16, and the plastic particles on the partition 16 will fall stably, so that the plastic particles in the hopper 2 below the partition 16 are stable.
