Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a melting device, in particular to a raw material melting device for producing plastic cups, belonging to the technical field of plastic cup production. Background Art
[0002] Plastic cups are disposable containers for hot drinks. The largest users of disposable plastic cups are beverage stores. Many cold drink stores, milk tea shops and coffee shops provide take-away drinks in plastic cups. This kind of cup is a non-degradable material. Many people throw away the cups after drinking the drinks, which makes this kind of disposable plastic cup a major source of "white pollution". The basic raw material of plastic cups is polystyrene, which is produced by melting polystyrene and then molding.
[0003] At present, the raw material melting devices for plastic cup production all inject polystyrene directly into the melting box for melting, but the existing devices only have a melting function. The polystyrene is stacked together when injected and melted, resulting in insufficient melting during melting, which requires extending the melting time. In addition, part of the raw materials will stick to the inner wall of the melting box during melting and need to be cleaned later. At the same time, in order to ensure the quality of the raw materials for plastic cup production, the raw materials are often cleaned, resulting in a small amount of water in the raw materials during the melting process, and then generating water vapor during the melting process, which prolongs the melting time and increases consumption.

[0021] The two sides of the bottom wall of the melting box 1 are fixedly connected with symmetrically arranged feeding pipes 19, and the pipe walls of the feeding pipes 19 are all equipped with valves, which is conducive to conveniently controlling the discharge of the melted raw materials through the valves on the feeding pipes 19.
[0022] An auxiliary block 20 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the melting box 1 away from the feed port 2 , and the upper end of the auxiliary block 20 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the transport cylinder 11 , which is beneficial to increase the installation stability of the transport cylinder 11 through the auxiliary block 20 .
[0023] A plurality of supporting legs 21 arranged in a circular array are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the melting box 1 , which is beneficial for conveniently increasing the overall supporting stability of the melting box 1 through the supporting legs 21 .
[0024] The feed port 2 is located directly below the opening of the transport cylinder 11 , which is conducive to conveniently feeding and melting the raw materials discharged from the inside of the transport cylinder 11 through the feed port 2 .
[0025] Working principle: when in use, first support the melting box 1 stably with a number of legs 21, and then start the resistance heater in the inner wall of the melting box 1. At this time, the resistance heater will increase the temperature inside the melting box 1. At the same time, the rising hot air will be injected into the inside of the transport cylinder 11 through the smoke pipe 10. The heat in the smoke will gradually cool down during the rising process, so as to facilitate the later drying of the raw materials and avoid the melting of the raw materials when they are moving. At this time, the drive motor 14 is started, and the output end of the drive motor 14 stably drives the second rotating rod 15 to rotate through the bearing. When the second rotating rod 15 rotates, it drives the threaded fan blades 17 and the second transmission wheel 16 to rotate. The rotation of the second transmission wheel 16 stably drives the first transmission wheel 9 to rotate through the belt 18. At this time, the first transmission wheel 9 is forced to push the first rotating rod 7. The first rotating rod 7 is forced to stably drive the second bevel gear 8 to rotate through the bearing. The second bevel gear 8 synchronously meshes and drives the first bevel gear 6. A bevel gear 6 is under force and cooperates with the bearing to stably drive the vertical rod 3 to rotate. When the vertical rod 3 rotates, it drives the mixing rod 4. The rotation of the mixing rod 4 will drive the scraper 5 to continuously rotate inside the melting box 1. At this time, the cleaned raw materials are injected into the inside of the conveying cylinder 11 from the discharge port 12, and the continuously rotating threaded fan blades 17 will push the raw materials to move. When the raw materials are moving, the hot air inside the conveying cylinder 11 will dry the raw materials to avoid the appearance of moisture inside. When the dried raw materials are injected into the melting box 1 through the opening of the conveying cylinder 11 and the feed port 2, the continuously rotating mixing rod 4 will stir the raw materials to avoid stacking and affecting melting. In addition, as the scraper 5 rotates continuously, the raw materials stuck to the inner wall of the melting box 1 will be scraped off to prevent sticking. When the raw materials inside the melting box 1 are completely melted, the discharge pipe 19 is opened in cooperation with the valve to discharge the melted raw materials, and then the plastic cup production machine is cooperated to cool and form the plastic cups.
