Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pipe manufacturing, in particular to an improved sizing sleeve with a gradient cooling water system. Background Art

[0002] Plastic pipe production line equipment includes: mixer, feeder, screw extruder, die head, sizing sleeve, cooling system, blister forming machine, tractor, cutting machine, etc. Among them, the sizing sleeve plays a role in cooling and shaping the pipe during the pipe production process. Only with good cooling effect, the pipe will shrink less in the later stage, the thickness will be uniform, the aperture of the inner and outer walls of the pipe will be reduced, the outer wall will be smooth, and the shaping effect will be good, thereby increasing the production speed and reducing the production cost.

[0003] At present, most plastic pipes use vacuum sizing sleeves. After the pipe embryo enters the sizing device, it is cooled by spraying or immersion in the vacuum box. The cooling water on the outer surface of the conventional sizing sleeve is not sufficient and uniform. The cooling water cannot cool the outer surface of the pipe product, and most of the cooling water is sucked away by the vacuum pump behind. The cooling water left for the sizing sleeve is not enough to cool the entire pipe product, resulting in insufficient cooling of the outer wall of the pipe product, and the size and shape accuracy of the pipe and the good surface quality cannot be well guaranteed; and there are many unreasonable aspects in the structural design of the sizing sleeve and the cooling system, resulting in poor cooling effect, slow sizing speed, and high manufacturing cost.

[0004] The raw materials are granulated in the screw extruder and then continue to enter the die. Due to the difference in the melting point of the raw materials, the temperature of the granulation and die die is about 160-260℃. The raw materials then enter the sizing sleeve from the die die. If the cooling speed is too fast, especially at the front end of the sizing sleeve, the raw materials will suddenly and quickly go from high temperature to low temperature, which will cause excessive stress concentration in the pipe and even form micro cracks, affecting the performance and use of the pipe. Therefore, in the cooling and shaping process of plastic pipes, it is required to cool down or cool faster, but not too quickly. It is very necessary to find a balance point or design a more reasonable cooling or cooling method. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] 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 of 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] The terms such as "left", "right", "upper", "lower" etc. cited in this specification are only for the convenience of description and are not used to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. Changes or adjustments in their relative relationships shall be regarded as the scope of implementation of the present invention without substantially changing the technical content.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 The utility model discloses an improved sizing sleeve containing a gradient cooling water system, comprising a cooling copper sleeve 1, a cooling water system 2, a sizing copper sleeve 3, a water film ring body 100, a first water inlet 101, a second water inlet 102, a third water inlet 103, a spiral water groove 104, a mounting disc 105, and a through hole 301.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 The utility model proposes an improved cooling water system 2 of a sizing sleeve containing a gradient cooling water system, which consists of a chiller 201, a control unit 202, a first normal temperature water inlet 203, a second normal temperature water inlet 204, a hot water machine 205, a hot water outlet 206, a first water storage tank 207, a second water storage tank 208, a third water storage tank 209, a first temperature measuring device 210, a second temperature measuring device 211, a third temperature measuring device 212, a first cooling water outlet 213, a second cooling water outlet 214, and a third cooling water outlet 215.

[0034] The working process of cooling water system 2 is as follows:

[0035] 1. Normal temperature water enters the water heater 205 from the first normal temperature water inlet 203, and the heating mechanism, temperature measuring device and control unit of the water heater 205 jointly generate hot water with a temperature > 60°C, so that the hot water temperature at the hot water outlet 206 is > 60°C, and then enters the chiller 201.

[0036] Preferably, the hot water temperature at the hot water outlet 206 is 65-70°C.

[0037] 2. Normal temperature water enters the chiller 201 from the second normal temperature water inlet 204.

[0038] 3. The chiller 201 works, and the control unit 202, the first temperature measuring device 210, the second temperature measuring device 211, and the third temperature measuring device 212 work together to keep the water temperatures in the first water tank 207, the second water tank 208, and the third water tank 209 at about 60°C, 40°C, and 20°C, respectively;

[0039] 4. Cooling water with temperatures of 60°C, 40°C, and 20°C is discharged from the first cooling water outlet 213, the second cooling water outlet 214, and the third cooling water outlet 215, respectively.

[0040] The working process of the cooling copper sleeve 1 and the sizing copper sleeve 3 is as follows:

[0041] 1. Cooling water with water temperature of 60℃, 40℃ and 20℃ flows into the first water inlet 101, the second water inlet 102 and the third water inlet 103 of the cooling copper sleeve 1 through the water inlet pipe and the six-way valve or the eight-way valve, and enters the front end, middle part and rear end of the cooling copper sleeve 1.

[0042] 2. Cooling water with temperatures of 60°C, 40°C, and 20°C respectively enters the cooling copper sleeve 1 and the water film ring 100 at its front end, and then respectively enters the wall of the spiral water trough 104. There are a number of small holes evenly distributed on the spiral water trough 104, and the cooling water can flow into the spiral water trough 104 from the small holes. As the spiral water trough 104 rotates, the cooling water also continuously flows in a spiral in the trough, so that the tube blank to be formed is cooled in a gradient manner and the tube is prevented from sticking to the inner wall of the cooling copper sleeve 1.

[0043] 3. After the formed tube is cooled in a gradient manner, it enters the sizing copper sleeve 3.

[0044] 4. Since the sizing copper sleeve 3 is in a vacuum cooling system, the external space of the sizing copper sleeve 3 is in a vacuum state, so the negative pressure generated acts on the tube to be formed through the through hole 301, and the tube to be formed is firmly adsorbed on the inner wall of the sizing copper sleeve 3, and vacuum cooling and sizing are performed again.

[0045] Of course, the embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the utility model, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
