The following technical solutions are adopted: It includes a mixing hopper, a first driving bracket, a second driving bracket, and a plurality of feeding hoppers. A vertical driving device is arranged on the first driving bracket. The vertical driving device drives and connects a rotary driving device through a driving block. The rotary driving device is connected to the mixing hopper through a horizontally arranged telescopic frame. The plurality of feeding hoppers are circular and are arranged on the second driving bracket through a rotating device; when the horizontally arranged telescopic frame is in the unfolded state, the mixing hopper is below the feeding hoppers; a metering pump is arranged at the bottom of the feeding hopper, and a discharge valve is arranged at the bottom of the mixing hopper.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-5 As shown, a technical solution provided by the present utility model:

[0026] In this embodiment, preferably, the suction mechanism 101 includes a cylinder cover 204.

A pulse valve 203 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top end of the cylinder cover 204. A cushion block 202 is fixedly installed on the right side of the top end of the cylinder cover 204. A filter element 502 is movably installed at the bottom end of the cylinder cover 204.

[0027] Through the above solution, the suction assembly can be installed through the cylinder cover, and the feeding cylinder can be sealed. The filter element can filter out the materials entering the feeding cylinder from the air.

[0028] In this embodiment, preferably, the blanking mechanism 102 includes a feeding cylinder 205. A cylinder cover 204 is fixedly installed at the top end of the feeding cylinder 205. A material suction pipe 206 is fixedly installed at the left end of the feeding cylinder 205. An insertion pipe 301 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the material suction pipe 206.

[0029] Through the above solution, materials can be introduced into the feeding cylinder through the material suction pipe, and the material suction pipe can be inserted into the storage device through the insertion pipe.

[0030] In this embodiment, preferably, a crushing cylinder 302 is fixedly installed in the middle of the material suction pipe 206. A first driving machine 303 is fixedly installed at the left end of the crushing cylinder 302. A rotating gear 304 is fixedly installed at the front end of the first driving machine 303.

[0031] Through the above solution, the rotation of the rotating gear in the crushing cylinder can be driven by the operation of the first driving machine.

[0032] In this embodiment, preferably, a transmission gear 305 is movably installed below the rotating gear 304. A guide cylinder 306 is movably installed in the middle of the transmission gear 305. The guide cylinder 306 is fixedly installed on a support plate 401. The support plate 401 is fixedly installed inside the crushing cylinder 302. A crushing tooth 402 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the transmission gear 305.

[0033] Through the above solution, the rotation of the crushing tooth can be driven by the rotation of the transmission gear driven by the rotating gear. The crushed materials can be guided through the guide cylinder and continue to move through the material suction pipe.

[0034] In this embodiment, preferably, a blanking hopper 403 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the feeding cylinder 205. A second driving machine 404 is fixedly installed at the front end of the blanking hopper 403. A butterfly plate 405 is fixedly installed at the front end of the second driving machine 404. A fixing plate 406 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the blanking hopper 403. A fixing screw 501 is movably installed on the fixing plate 406.

[0035] Through the above solution, the rotation of the butterfly plate driven by the second driving machine can open the blanking hopper to allow the materials to fall into the blanking cylinder of the extruder. The device can be fixed in the blanking cylinder of the extruder by passing the fixing screw through the fixing plate.

[0036] When the automatic feeding device of a plastic extruder in this embodiment is in use, the user fixes the fixing plate 406 to the top of the feeding barrel of the extruder through the fixing screw 501, thereby completing the installation of the device. Then, the user inserts the insertion tube 301 into the storage device and connects it to the gas source through the air inlet joint 105. After the connection, the negative pressure generator 103 starts to intake air. The high-pressure gas generates high-speed flow through the air flow direction, causing the gas in the feeding barrel 205 to be driven by the air flow. After being driven by the air flow, it enters the gas tank 201 through the air guide pipe 106. The gas flow in the feeding barrel 205 generates negative pressure in the feeding barrel 205. The negative pressure causes the material in the storage device to enter the feeding barrel 205 through the material suction pipe 206. When the material passes through the crushing barrel 302, the first drive motor 303 drives the rotating gear 304 to rotate, causing the transmission gear 305 to drive the crushing teeth 402 to rotate and crush the incoming material to prevent the material particles from being too large. After the material enters the feeding barrel 205, the filter element 502 filters the material from the air and falls into the feeding hopper 403 by gravity. When the material in the feeding barrel of the extruder is insufficient, the second drive motor 404 operates to drive the butterfly plate 405 to open, allowing the material to fall into the feeding barrel of the extruder. While the material is being fed, the pulse valve 203 operates to instantaneously release the gas in the gas tank 201, causing the material attached to the filter element 502 to be blown and fall, thereby completing the automatic feeding of the extruder.

[0037] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art of this industry should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the descriptions in the specification are only preferred examples of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
