Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to paint production, and more specifically, to a stirring kettle for paint production. Background Art
[0002] Paint is a chemical mixture coating that can firmly cover the surface of an object, serving for protection, decoration, marking and other special purposes. Most paints are made from raw materials such as iron oxide or resin. In the early days, most paints were mainly made from vegetable oils, so they were called "paints", such as the healthy, environmentally friendly and original tung oil. Whether it is a traditional coating product made from natural substances or a modern developing coating product made from synthetic chemical products, they all belong to organic chemical polymer materials, and the formed coating film belongs to the type of polymer compounds. According to the modern general classification of chemical products, paint belongs to fine chemical products. Paint is composed of resin, solvent, pigment, additives, etc., and the resin used plays the most crucial role. Essentially, the production of paint is a process of stirring and crushing pigment solid particles by external force and dispersing them into the resin solution to form a uniform and fine suspension dispersion.
[0003] The existing paint production is divided into the following steps: pre-dispersion, grinding dispersion, paint mixing, purification and packaging. Among them, paint mixing refers to the process of stabilizing the ground paint slurry during the production process of coatings (paints), including adjusting color, solid powder, viscosity, supplementing materials, etc., so as to obtain the required liquid coating product.
[0004] The stirring devices usually used in paint mixing devices are generally common paddle stirrers, turbine stirrers or anchor stirrers, etc. Among them, due to the simple structure of the paddle stirrer and the small power required for stirring, it is a relatively commonly used one. However, due to the poor material mixing effect of the ordinary paddle stirrer, the stirring effect is poor, affecting the material mixing effect. Especially for paints with generally high viscosity, when used for paint preparation, the ideal mixing effect is often not achieved.
[0005] During paint mixing, a diluent (to adjust viscosity) usually needs to be added to the kettle already filled with the ground paint slurry. However, in addition to adding the diluent, sometimes solid powder also needs to be added, and the powder is prone to caking to form a paste. Due to the low rotation speed during paint mixing, the mixed material still contains paste after discharging, ultimately affecting the painting effect. Content of the Utility Model

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments.
[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 2 , Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the stirring kettle for paint production provided by the present utility model. Figure 2 , which is a schematic diagram of the part of the second feed pipe of the present utility model located inside the kettle.
[0025] A stirring kettle for paint production, used for paint mixing, includes a kettle cover 1, a kettle body 2 and a kettle bottom 3. The kettle body 2 and the kettle bottom 3 are integrally formed. The kettle body 2 and the kettle cover 1 are detachably connected into one body through a connecting flange. The kettle cover 1, the kettle body 2 and the kettle bottom 3 enclose a working chamber. A first feed pipe 4 and a second feed pipe 5 are respectively connected to the kettle cover 1. The kettle bottom 3 is connected with a discharge pipe 6. The first feed pipe 4 is a liquid feed pipe, and the second feed pipe 5 is a solid powder feed pipe. The stirring kettle further includes a stirring mechanism 7. The stirring mechanism 7 includes a main shaft 8 and a stirring blade group 9 installed on the main shaft 8. The stirring blade group 9 includes a first group of stirring blade groups and a second group of stirring blade groups. The first group of stirring blade groups includes more than 2 layers of first stirring blades 10, and the second group of stirring blade groups includes more than 2 layers of second stirring blades 11. The first stirring blades 10 and the second stirring blades 11 are installed at intervals. The length of the first stirring blade 10 < the length of the second stirring blade 11. The stirring blade group 9 is located in the working chamber. One end of the main shaft 8 passes through the kettle cover 1 and is connected to a power supply mechanism. A baffle group 12 is arranged on the inner wall of the kettle body 2.
[0026] By setting the first feed pipe 4 and the second feed pipe 5, the positions of liquid feeding and solid feeding are distinguished. The first stirring blades 10 and the second stirring blades 11 with different lengths arranged at intervals form material swirls with different diameters in the working chamber, strengthening the effect in the radial direction and improving the homogenization effect. The setting of the baffle group 12 intensifies the material swirl, equivalent to adding a flow channel in the fluid and further intensifying the mixing effect.
[0027] In one or more specific embodiments of the present invention, each layer of the first stirring blade 10 includes 3 first blades, which are circumferentially distributed along the main shaft 8. Each layer of the second stirring blade 11 includes 3 second blades, which are circumferentially distributed along the main shaft 8.
[0028] In one or more specific embodiments of the present invention, in order to obtain a better homogenization effect, the first blade extends upward from the main shaft 8 towards the inner wall of the kettle body 2, and the second blade extends downward from the main shaft 8 towards the inner wall of the kettle body 2. Such a setting makes the flow channel between the two gradually extend or contract, which is more conducive to fluid homogenization.
[0029] In one or more specific embodiments of the present utility model, in order to achieve a better uniform effect, the baffle group 12 includes more than 2 layers of the first baffle group 13 and more than 2 layers of the second baffle group 14. The first baffle group 13 and the second baffle group 14 are arranged at intervals from top to bottom. The first baffle group 13 includes a plurality of first upper baffles 15 and a plurality of first lower baffles 16. The second baffle group 14 includes a plurality of second upper baffles 17 and a plurality of second lower baffles 18. The length of the first upper baffle 15 < the first lower baffle 16, the length of the second upper baffle 17 > the second lower baffle 18. The first upper baffle 15 extends upward, the first lower baffle 16 extends downward, the second upper baffle 17 extends upward, and the second lower baffle 18 extends downward. Through the arrangement of the first baffle group 13 and the second baffle group 14, the flow path is changed, the upward and downward baffles are increased, and the uniform effect is further improved.
[0030] In one or more specific embodiments of the present utility model, a plurality of first upper baffles 15 and a plurality of first lower baffles 16 are both arranged circumferentially along the inner wall of the kettle body 2. A plurality of second upper baffles 17 and a plurality of second lower baffles 18 are both arranged circumferentially along the inner wall of the kettle body. The first upper baffle 15, the first lower baffle 16, the second upper baffle 17, and the second lower baffle 18 can be welded to the inner wall of the kettle body 2.
[0031] The length of the first upper baffle 15 = the second lower baffle 18, the first lower baffle 16 = the length of the second upper baffle 17, and the minimum distance between the first lower baffle 16 and the second stirring blade 11 > 0, to prevent the stirring blade from hitting the first lower baffle 16 or the second upper baffle 17.
[0032] In one or more specific embodiments of the present utility model, through holes 19 are distributed on a section of the second feed pipe 5 located in the working fluid. The port at the outlet end of the second feed pipe 5 is an inclined port, and the inclined port is adjacent to the stirring blade group 9. The diameter of the solid powder < the diameter of the through hole 19 < the diameter of the solid agglomerate. After such a setting, the unagglomerated pigment enters the working fluid through the through holes 19, and the solid agglomerates come out from the inclined port. The solid agglomerates coming out from the inclined port are dispersed by the stirring blade group 9 and then enter the working fluid, avoiding the presence of slurry in the mixed material after discharging.
[0033] In one or more specific embodiments of the present utility model, in order to remove the heat generated by stirring in time, a sleeve is arranged outside the kettle body 2. A sandwich space 20 with upper and lower seals is formed between the outer wall of the kettle body 2 and the sleeve (the sleeve has an upper top and a lower top, and the upper top and the lower top are respectively connected to the sleeve body and the outer wall of the kettle body 2). A cooling coil 21 is installed in the sandwich space 20. The cooling coil 21 is provided with a cooling water inlet and a hot water outlet (the cooling water inlet end and the hot water outlet end both extend outside the sleeve body). By providing the sandwich space 20 and the cooling coil 21, the heat generated during the working process is removed in time to maintain the working temperature.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
