Description

Technical Field

[0002] Polypropylene particles (PP particles for short) are small granular substances made of polypropylene polymer materials. Polypropylene is a non-toxic, odorless, tasteless milky white waxy solid particles, commonly known as "100-fold glue". As a thermoplastic resin, polypropylene has excellent physical and chemical properties, such as good stress cracking resistance, high bending fatigue life, light weight, good toughness, good chemical resistance, etc. In addition, it has the best heat resistance among general plastics, with a heat deformation temperature of 80~100℃. It can be boiled in boiling water, and can also work for a long time at 100℃. Even when there is no external force, it will not deform even if it is heated to 150℃.

[0003] Cleaning polypropylene particles can remove pollutants and residues on the surface of polypropylene particles, thereby improving their purity. High-purity polypropylene particles can ensure that the produced plastic products have better physical and chemical properties, such as higher strength, better corrosion resistance, better heat resistance, etc. After cleaning, drying operations are required.

[0004] After the polypropylene particles are dried, they need to be dried. When drying the polypropylene particles, the existing cleaning and drying devices for polypropylene particles generally directly introduce hot air into the cleaned polypropylene particles to dry the surface of the polypropylene particles by the hot air. However, this drying method is relatively simple, resulting in a long time for drying the polypropylene.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new polypropylene particle cleaning and drying device to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0025] A motor 10 is fixedly installed on the outer barrel 1, and a pinion 11 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 10. A large gear 8 is movably sleeved on the outer barrel 1, and the large gear 8 is meshed with the small gear 11. A plurality of brackets 9 are fixedly installed on the large gear 8, and one end of the bracket 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner barrel 2. A support column 12 is provided at the bottom of the inner barrel 2, and the support column 12 is rotatably connected to the inner barrel 2. The bottom of the support column 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the outer barrel 1. The motor 10 is started, and the small gear 11 is driven to rotate by the rotation of the output end of the motor 10. Since the small gear 11 and the large gear 8 are in a mutually meshing relationship, the large gear 8 rotates under the action of the small gear 11. When the large gear 8 rotates, the inner barrel 2 is driven to rotate through the plurality of brackets 9. When the inner barrel 2 rotates, the polypropylene particles on the inner side of the inner barrel 2 are driven to rotate. At this time, the plurality of stirring rods 5 are in a stationary state, and the polypropylene particles and the plurality of stirring rods 5 move relative to each other. The stirring rods 5 play a role in stirring the polypropylene particles, so that the polypropylene particles can be more fully cleaned;

[0026] The lifting device includes a mounting frame 14 and two electric cylinders 13. The two electric cylinders 13 are respectively fixedly connected to the two sides of the outer barrel 1. The telescopic ends of the two electric cylinders 13 are fixedly connected to the mounting frame 14. The mounting frame 14 is an inverted U-shaped structure. The outer surface of the outer tube 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through hole opened at the top center of the mounting frame 14. The telescopic end of the electric cylinder 13 drives the mounting frame 14 to move downward, so that the multiple stirring rods 5 can be moved into the inner barrel 2.

[0027] An L-shaped fixing frame 15 is provided on the inner tube 4, and the fixing frame 15 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the inner tube 4. Bolts are threadedly connected to the fixing frame 15. Two limiting grooves 16 are provided on the outer surface of the outer tube 3. The ends of the bolts can be moved into the limiting grooves 16. The bolts are rotated so that one end of the bolts is moved out of the limiting grooves 16. The inner tube 4 is rotated so that the multiple outer vents 6 are respectively opposite to the multiple inner vents 7. The top of the inner tube 4 is connected to an external hot air source, and the motor 10 is started again. At this time, the rotation speed of the inner barrel 2 is accelerated, and the polypropylene particles are dried conveniently by centrifugal force. In addition, the hot air is discharged from the inner vents 7 and the outer vents 6 through the top of the inner tube 4 to act on the polypropylene particles, thereby accelerating the drying speed of the polypropylene.

[0028] The bottom of the outer barrel 1 is fixedly connected with a water outlet 17 , a valve is installed at the water outlet 17 , and a plurality of supporting legs 18 are fixedly installed outside the outer barrel 1 .

[0029] The working principle provided by the utility model is as follows: when the device is used, water is injected into the inner barrel 2, and polypropylene particles are poured into the inner barrel 2. The telescopic end of the electric cylinder 13 is extended and retracted to drive the mounting frame 14 to move downward, so that the multiple stirring rods 5 can be moved into the inner barrel 2. Then, the motor 10 is started, and the small gear 11 is driven to rotate by the rotation of the output end of the motor 10. Since the small gear 11 and the large gear 8 are in a mutually meshing relationship, the large gear 8 rotates under the action of the small gear 11. When the large gear 8 rotates, the inner barrel 2 is driven to rotate through the multiple brackets 9. When the inner barrel 2 rotates, the polypropylene particles inside the inner barrel 2 are driven to rotate. At this time, the multiple stirring rods 5 are in a stationary state, and the polypropylene particles and the multiple stirring rods 5 move relative to each other. The stirring rods 5 play a role in stirring the polypropylene. The stirring effect of the olefin particles allows the polypropylene particles to be cleaned more fully. After cleaning, the motor 10 is turned off, and the water in the inner barrel 2 flows out through the through hole of the inner barrel 2 through the water outlet 17, and then flows out from the water outlet 17. Then, the bolt is rotated so that one end of the bolt moves out from the limiting groove 16, and the inner tube 4 is rotated so that the multiple external air holes 6 are respectively opposite to the multiple internal air holes 7. The top of the inner tube 4 is connected to an external hot air source, and the motor 10 is started again. At this time, the rotation speed of the inner barrel 2 is accelerated, and the polypropylene particles are dried conveniently by centrifugal force. In addition, the hot air is discharged from the internal air holes 7 and the external air holes 6 through the top of the inner tube 4 to act on the polypropylene particles, thereby accelerating the drying speed of the polypropylene. After the operation is completed, the mounting frame 14 is driven upward by the electric cylinder 13, so as to facilitate the removal of the polypropylene particles in the inner barrel 2.
