Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cigarette packaging, in particular to a recycling device. Background Art
[0002] In the production process of cigarette packaging, hot melt adhesive is often used as an adhesive. Since the quality of hot melt adhesive is very important for the quality of cigarette packaging products, the quality of hot melt adhesive is generally tested before cigarette packaging. At present, the softening point test method is mainly used to test hot melt adhesive. According to the measured value of the hot melt adhesive softening point, it is judged whether the hot melt adhesive is qualified. The softening point of hot melt adhesive refers to the temperature at which the hot melt adhesive begins to soften during the heating process. The softening point can be used as an important indicator to characterize the quality of hot melt adhesive.
[0003] At present, the ring and ball method is mainly used to determine the softening point of hot melt adhesive. That is, a steel ball of a certain weight is placed on a metal ring filled with hot melt adhesive. The diameter of the steel ball is smaller than the metal ring. Then, under the specified heating conditions, the steel ball enters the hot melt adhesive and begins to fall under the action of gravity. When the steel ball reaches the preset position, the temperature at this time is the softening point of the hot melt adhesive. After the test, the steel ball is coated with a large amount of hot melt adhesive, and its weight changes, so it cannot be reused. Therefore, when measuring the softening point again, it is necessary to replace a new steel ball that is not coated with hot melt adhesive, which causes waste. Utility Model Content

On the contrary, the purpose of introducing the utility model in conjunction with the implementation is to cover other options or modifications that may be extended based on the claims of the present invention. In order to provide a deep understanding of the present invention, the following description will include many specific details. The present invention can also be implemented without using these details. In addition, in order to avoid confusion or blurring the focus of the present invention, some specific details will be omitted in the description. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0029] It should be noted that in this specification, similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in the subsequent drawings.
[0030] The terms “first”, “second”, etc. are only used for distinguishing descriptions and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0031] In the description of this embodiment, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this embodiment can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0032] At present, after testing the softening point of hot melt adhesive, a large amount of hot melt adhesive is coated on the steel ball, and its weight changes, so it cannot be reused. When measuring the softening point again, a new steel ball not coated with hot melt adhesive needs to be replaced, which causes waste.
[0033] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a recycling device, which can quickly remove the hot melt adhesive coated on the surface of the steel ball and recycle the steel ball at the same time, so that the steel ball can be reused, saving costs.
[0034] In order to make the technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clear, the implementation methods of the present invention are described in further detail below.
[0035] refer to Figure 1 The embodiment of the utility model provides a recycling device, including a support 1, a soldering iron plate 2 and a collection box 3, wherein the soldering iron plate 2 is arranged on the support 1, and the soldering iron plate 2 is provided with a plurality of Figure 1 The hole 4 (shown in the X direction in FIG. 1 ) passes through the soldering iron plate 2, the diameter of the hole 4 is smaller than the maximum size of the sample and larger than the diameter of the steel ball, and the soldering iron plate 2 is used to heat the sample to melt the colloid. The collecting box 3 is located below the soldering iron plate 2.
[0036] After testing the softening point of the hot melt adhesive, if the steel balls in the sample need to be recovered, the steel balls with a large amount of hot melt adhesive on the surface can be placed on the soldering iron plate 2 and heated. Since the surface of the steel balls is coated with a large amount of hot melt adhesive, the steel balls will not fall into the holes 4. When the hot melt adhesive on the surface of the steel balls melts, the steel balls can fall out of the holes 4 on the soldering iron plate 2 into the collection box 3 located below the soldering iron plate 2. Then, the operator can pull out the collection box 3 from under the soldering iron plate 2 and take out the steel balls from the collection box 3, thereby completing the recovery of the steel balls, allowing the steel balls to be reused, saving costs.
[0037] Optionally, a heating element (not shown in the figure) is provided on the soldering iron plate 2, and the heating element is used to heat the soldering iron plate 2 to heat the sample. Figure 3 The heating element includes two heating tubes, and the soldering iron plate 2 is provided with two Figure 3 The two heating tubes are respectively arranged in the two through holes 6. The utility model arranges the heating tubes in the through holes 6 on the soldering iron plate 2, so that the heating tubes can heat the soldering iron plate 2 from the inside, and the heat of the heating tubes is not easily dissipated, thereby improving the heating efficiency.
[0038] Optionally, refer to Figure 1, and also includes a temperature control mechanism 7, which is arranged on one side of the support 1, and is electrically connected to the heating tube, and the temperature control mechanism 7 can control the temperature of the heating tube. Specifically, the temperature control mechanism 7 includes a thermostat (not shown in the figure), an input unit (not shown in the figure) and a display unit (not shown in the figure), and the thermostat is electrically connected to the heating tube, and is used to control the temperature of the heating tube so that the temperature of the heating tube reaches a preset heating temperature. The input unit is electrically connected to the thermostat, and is used to receive the preset heating temperature input by the operator. The display unit is electrically connected to the heating tube, and is used to display the temperature of the heating tube.
[0039] When the soldering iron plate 2 needs to be heated to a preset heating temperature so that the hot melt adhesive on the sample can be completely melted, the operator first transmits the preset heating temperature value to the temperature controller through the input unit, and the temperature controller controls the heating tube to heat to the preset heating temperature to completely melt the hot melt adhesive attached to the surface of the steel ball, so that the steel ball can fall from the hole 4 of the soldering iron plate 2 into the collection box 3, and the display unit can display the temperature of the heating tube in real time so that the operator can observe whether the temperature of the heating tube has reached the preset heating temperature value. The utility model sets a temperature control mechanism 7 so that the temperature of the heating tube is visible and controllable, and the operator can adjust the temperature of the heating tube in time to avoid the problem that the hot melt adhesive on the steel ball is not completely melted due to the heating temperature of the heating tube being too low.
[0040] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 The support 1 includes a first direction (such as Figure 1 The two support plates 8 are arranged at intervals (as shown in the Y direction in FIG). The two ends of the soldering iron plate 2 are respectively connected to the two support plates 8 through two heat insulating members 9. The utility model can avoid the problem of direct contact between the soldering iron plate 2 and the support plate 8, which causes deformation and damage of the support plate 8, and ensures the stability of the support 1.
[0041] Optionally, the heat insulating member 9 is made of bakelite, which has good high temperature resistance, and thus can well insulate the high temperature of the soldering iron plate 2 and prevent the support plate 8 from being deformed and damaged.
[0042] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The two ends of the collecting box 3 are respectively connected to the side walls of the two supporting plates 8 in a sliding manner, and the collecting box 3 can move between the first position and the second position. When the steel balls are collected, the collecting box 3 is moved to the first position, at which time the collecting box is located directly below the soldering iron plate. Figure 1 When the steel ball falls into the collection box, the collection box is moved to the second position so that the steel ball can be taken out of the collection box. Figure 2 shown.
[0043] Optionally, the soldering iron plate 2 is made of aluminum alloy, and a polytetrafluoroethylene coating is provided on the surface of the soldering iron plate 2. Aluminum alloy has good thermal conductivity, so that the soldering iron plate 2 can quickly reach a preset heating temperature. The polytetrafluoroethylene coating has good anti-stick properties, which can prevent the melted hot melt adhesive from sticking to the soldering iron plate 2, making it easy to clean.
