[0002] In plastic extrusion equipment, plastic extruders are usually called main machines, while the subsequent equipment plastic extrusion molding machines are called auxiliary machines. After more than 100 years of development, plastic extruders have evolved from the original single screw to twin screws, multiple screws, and even screwless machines. Plastic extruders (main machines) can be matched with various plastic molding auxiliary machines such as pipes, films, holding materials, monofilaments, flat wires, strapping tapes, extruded nets, plates (sheets), profiles, granulation, cable coating, etc. to form various plastic extrusion molding production lines and produce various plastic products. Therefore, plastic extrusion molding machinery is one of the widely used machines in the plastic processing industry, whether now or in the future.

[0030] When feeding through the bucket body 1, the movement of the first drive motor 62 drives the cam 63 to rotate, and the cam 63 drives the top plate 5 to move. At the same time, with the use of the spring 7, the top plate 5 can be driven to move up and down, and the top plate 5 drives the dredging rod 3 to move up and down, and the dredging rod 3 drives the dredging plate 4 to move up and down, so that the bucket body 1 can be dredged, which is convenient for the rapid feeding of the bucket body 1, avoids the blockage of raw materials due to bridging, and improves the feeding efficiency of raw materials.
