Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a bearing fixing device for the rollers of an open mill, belonging to the field of open mill rollers. Background Art

[0002] An open mill, also known as an open rubber mill, is mainly used for the plasticizing, mixing, hot refining, and sheet pressing processes of high molecular materials such as rubber and plastics. It is one of the most basic and important rubber machinery and is widely used in the rubber industry.

[0003] An open mill mainly consists of two parallel rotating rollers, a frame, a transmission system, a heating and cooling system, a distance adjustment device, a safety braking device, etc. During operation, the material is extruded and sheared through the gap between the two relatively rotating rollers, thereby achieving the purpose of plasticizing or mixing. According to the operation requirements, the distance between the two rollers can be adjusted to control the thickness of the processed material, and the temperature of the rollers can be controlled through the heating or cooling system to meet different process requirements.

[0004] With the development of technology, although more advanced equipment such as internal mixers has emerged, the open mill still plays an important role in some small and medium-scale production or specific process requirements due to its simple structure, convenient operation, and easy maintenance.

[0005] The rollers of an open mill are its core working components, usually consisting of two parallel metal drums that can rotate at different speeds and in different directions. The main function of the rollers is to extrude and shear the material, thereby achieving the plasticizing, mixing, hot refining, and sheet pressing processes of materials such as rubber or plastics.

[0006] These rollers are generally made of high-strength alloy steel and are finely processed and surface hardened to ensure that they have sufficient hardness and wear resistance and can withstand high pressure and high friction for a long time without being easily damaged. According to specific application requirements, heating or cooling channels are also designed inside the rollers. By circulating heating media (such as steam, oil) or cooling media (such as water), the working temperature of the rollers can be precisely controlled to adapt to the processing requirements of different materials.

[0007] For the part where the existing open mill rollers are connected to the open mill base, bearing connection and positioning are required. After the bearing is sleeved on the roller, a flange is sleeved on the end of the roller. After the flange is tightened, the bearing is restricted. Under the high-speed rotation of the roller, the connection between the inner ring of the bearing and the roller is likely to rotate, resulting in affecting the normal operation of the open mill.

[0022] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes, and effects of the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0023] Embodiment 1

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , the present utility model provides a technical solution for a bearing fixing device of a kneader roller:

[0025] As Figure 1 shown, the position of the roller 2 according to the embodiment of the present utility model will be described in detail.

[0026] Its structure includes a roller 2 rotatably installed inside the base of the kneader 1. The roller 2 includes a horizontally arranged roller body 21. Both ends of the roller body 21 are provided with a fixing mechanism for positioning the rotation of the roller body 21.

[0027] As Figure 2 shown, the detailed structure of the roller 2 according to the embodiment of the present utility model will be described in detail.

[0028] The fixing mechanism includes an assembly shaft 22 with an annular groove. A bearing 23 is sleeved on the middle section of the assembly shaft 22. A disassembly sleeve 24 is arranged on one side of the bearing 23, and a snap ring 25 is arranged on the other side.

[0029] As Figure 3 shown, the specific fixing method of the fixing mechanism according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0030] On the inner wall of the end of the bearing 23 close to the snap ring 25, there is a first positioning groove 231. On the inner wall of the end of the bearing 23 close to the disassembly sleeve 24, there is a second positioning groove 232. On the outer wall of the assembly shaft 22, there is a groove 221 nested with the snap ring 25 and a positioning key installation groove 222 corresponding to the second positioning groove 232. A first positioning key 224 is embedded in the inner wall of the groove 221. The end of the first positioning key 224 away from the assembly shaft 22 is tightly embedded in the first positioning groove 231. A second positioning key 223 is embedded in the positioning key installation groove 222. The end of the second positioning key 223 away from the assembly shaft 22 is tightly embedded in the second positioning groove 232. Under the positioning of the groove 221 and the positioning key installation groove 222, the first positioning key 224 and the second positioning key 223 respectively limit and position the inner ring of the bearing 23, effectively preventing the inner ring of the bearing 23 from rotating.

[0031] For the convenience of assembly, both the first positioning key 224 and the second positioning key 223 are block structures with inclined surfaces at the top. The inclined surfaces on the first positioning key 224 and the second positioning key 223 are arranged axially opposite to each other.

[0032] To prevent the bearing 23 from moving towards the roller body 21, one side of the disassembly sleeve 24 abuts against the inner wall of the annular groove of the assembly shaft 22, and the other side abuts against the bearing 23 and the second positioning key 223 at the same time.

[0033] To prevent the bearing 23 from moving towards the assembly shaft 22, the side of the snap ring 25 facing the roller body 21 abuts against the bearing 23 and the first positioning key 224 at the same time.

[0034] For the convenience of disassembly, installation and maintenance, the disassembly sleeve 24 and the assembly shaft 22 are connected in a detachable manner, specifically in a tightly nested manner. This connection method is achieved by heat expansion and contraction treatment of the disassembly sleeve 24. After the disassembly sleeve 24 is heated and expanded, it is embedded in the assembly shaft 22. As the temperature drops, the disassembly sleeve 24 will contract and be positioned on the assembly shaft 22.

[0035] For the convenience of installation, the snap ring 25 is composed of two semi-circular snap strips, and the ends of the two snap strips are fixedly connected.

[0036] To improve the firmness of the connection, the fixed connection is specifically a bolt fixation, and this connection method effectively improves the convenience of disassembly and assembly.

[0037] To improve the rotational stability, the roller body 21 and the assembly shaft 22 are of an integrated structure. However, the present application is not limited thereto, and they can also be connected by welding, as long as the connection firmness between the roller body 21 and the assembly shaft 22 is ensured.

[0038] During installation, after the disassembly sleeve 24 is sleeved on the assembly shaft 22, the second positioning key 223 is first installed, and then the bearing 23 is sleeved on the assembly shaft 22. The second positioning groove 232 on the inner ring of the bearing 23 will be closely engaged with the second positioning key 223. Then, the first positioning key 224 is tightly embedded into the first positioning groove 231 on the inner ring of the bearing 23 through the groove 221. Finally, after the snap ring 25 is sleeved on the groove 221, the installation and fixation of the bearing 23 are completed. The operation is simple, and it effectively prevents the inner ring of the bearing 23 from rotating at high speed and affecting the normal operation of the internal mixer.
