Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of particle production, and particularly relates to an air-cooled particle conveyor. Background Art

[0002] In the engineering plastics processing industry, the uniformity and quality of particles are crucial for the forming quality of subsequent products. With the popularization of automated production lines, the continuous production and transportation of plastic particles have become a key link to improve production efficiency. However, traditional plastic particle conveyors often lack effective cooling and uniform dispersion mechanisms for particles during transportation, resulting in easy adhesion of particles at high temperatures, affecting the dispersion of particles and the quality of the final product.

[0003] In the prior art, although there are various plastic particle conveyors, such as pneumatic conveying systems or mechanical conveyor belts, etc., they mainly focus on the transportation function of particles, and pay less attention to the cooling and dispersion problems of particles during transportation. Especially when the particles are just discharged from the granulator, the temperature is relatively high. If they are directly packaged or further processed, it is easy to cause particle deformation and adhesion, affecting the uniformity and appearance quality of the product. The plastic particle conveyors in the prior art have problems of insufficient particle cooling and uneven dispersion during transportation, which directly affect the efficiency of subsequent processing procedures and the quality of products. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an air-cooled particle conveyor to solve the problem that the existing particle conveyors are prone to adhesion when transporting particles.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is realized as follows:

[0006] An air-cooled particle conveyor includes a fan, a conveying pipeline, a storage tank, a bracket and a conveying component. The air outlet of the fan is communicated with one end of the conveying pipeline, and a communication port is arranged on the side of the conveying pipeline; a first feeding port is arranged on the side of the storage tank, and the other end of the conveying pipeline is communicated with the first feeding port; the bracket is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the storage tank, and a first discharging port is arranged at the bottom of the storage tank; the conveying component is communicated with the communication port and transports the particles discharged from the granulator into the communication port.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the wind generated by the fan can effectively transport the particles to the storage tank. At the same time, through the design of the communication port, the particles are cooled during transportation, reducing the possibility of particle adhesion due to high temperature, and improving the dispersion of particles and the quality of the final product.

[0008] Preferably, the conveying pipeline includes a blanking pipe communicated with the fan and a dispersion pipe communicated with the storage tank. The blanking pipe and the dispersion pipe are communicated, and the communication port is arranged on the side of the blanking pipe.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the connected design of the blanking pipe and the dispersion pipe makes the transportation of particles smoother, reduces the blockage of particles in the pipeline, and improves the transportation efficiency.

[0010] Preferably, baffles are fixedly arranged inside the dispersion pipe, and the baffles are inclined and staggered.

[0012] Preferably, multiple staggered baffles are arranged oppositely inside the dispersion pipe, and the multiple baffles respectively occupy half of the inside of the dispersion pipe.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the opposite arrangement of the baffles and the design of occupying half of the dispersion pipe make the flow of particles in the dispersion pipe more uniform, and further improves the dispersion effect of the particles.

[0014] Preferably, a funnel is arranged at the communication port, the conveying component is installed at the top of the funnel, and the conveying component is driven to move by a motor.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the funnel makes the particles enter the conveying component more concentratedly, and the conveying component driven by the motor can effectively send the particles into the storage tank, improving the accuracy and efficiency of transportation.

[0016] Preferably, the conveying component includes a support plate, an outer cylinder fixedly arranged on the support plate, and an auger rotatably arranged inside the outer cylinder. A second feed port and a second discharge port are respectively arranged on the outer cylinder, and the driving end of the motor is fixedly connected to the auger.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotation of the auger can effectively convey the particles from the second feed port to the second discharge port, and the design of motor drive ensures the stable operation of the conveying component.

[0018] Preferably, the second feed port is located at the upper part of the outer cylinder, the second discharge port is located at the lower part of the outer cylinder, the second discharge port is communicated with the funnel, and the spiral blade of the auger is equal to the inner diameter of the outer cylinder.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the set positions of the second feed port and the second discharge port ensure the smooth flow of particles in the conveying component, and the matching of the spiral blade and the inner diameter of the outer cylinder further improves the efficiency of particle transportation.

[0020] Preferably, the second feed port and the second discharge port are respectively located on the two side surfaces of the outer cylinder, and an observation port is also arranged on the outer cylinder, and a cover plate is rotatably arranged on the observation port.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the observation port facilitates the operator to observe the conveying situation of the particles. The rotatable setting of the cover plate facilitates the opening and closing of the observation port, improving the convenience of operation.

[0022] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0039] The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in combination with embodiments.

[0040] This embodiment relates to an air-cooled particle conveyor. In terms of the overall structure, as Figure 1 shown, it includes a blower 1, a conveying pipeline 2, a storage tank 4, a bracket 6, and a conveying assembly 8.

[0041] Among them, one end of the conveying pipeline 2 is communicated with the air outlet of the blower 1. A communication port 3 is opened on the side of the conveying pipeline 2. A first feeding port 5 is opened on the side of the storage tank 4. The other end of the conveying pipeline 2 is communicated with the first feeding port 5. The bracket 6 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the storage tank 4. A first discharging port 7 is opened at the bottom of the storage tank 4. The conveying assembly 8 is communicated with the communication port 3. The conveying assembly 8 transports the particles discharged from the granulator into the communication port 3.

[0042] It is worth mentioning that after granulation, the granulator still has residual temperature. The fan 1 can cool the granules and blow the granules into the storage tank 4 for storage. The granules are discharged from the granulator and fall into the conveying assembly 8. The conveying assembly 8 can prevent air flow from blowing out from the communication port 3, causing the granules to be unable to enter the conveying pipeline 2. The conveying assembly 8 can convey the granules to the conveying pipeline 2, and then the fan 1 blows the granules into the storage tank 4 for material storage. The first feed port 5 is located on the side of the storage tank 4 for convenient connection of the conveying pipeline 2. The first discharge port 7 is located at the bottom of the storage tank 4 for convenient discharge of the granules. A container is placed inside the support 6, and the granules directly fall into the container after passing through the first discharge port 7.

[0043] Based on the above overall introduction, an exemplary structure of the air-cooled particle conveyor in this embodiment is as Figure 2 shown. The conveying pipeline 2 includes a blanking pipe 201 communicated with the fan 1 and a dispersion pipe 202 communicated with the storage tank 4. The blanking pipe 201 and the dispersion pipe 202 are communicated. The communication port 3 is opened on the side of the blanking pipe 201. A baffle 203 is fixedly arranged inside the dispersion pipe 202, and the baffle 203 is inclined and staggered.

[0044] It should be noted that the blanking pipe 201 is horizontally arranged. One end of the blanking pipe 201 is installed at the air outlet of the fan 1, the other end of the blanking pipe 201 is installed at one end of the dispersion pipe 202, and the other end of the dispersion pipe 202 is installed at the first feed port 5 of the storage tank 4. In this way, the fan 1, the blanking pipe 201, the dispersion pipe 202 and the storage tank 4 are communicated. The communication port 3 is located at the upper part of the side of the blanking pipe 201. The granules enter the blanking pipe 201 from the communication port 3, and the air flow blows the granules into the dispersion pipe 202, where they are dispersed to avoid granule adhesion. In order to achieve the dispersion effect, the baffle 203 is arranged in the dispersion pipe 202. After the air flow blows the granules against the baffle 203, they will collide with the baffle 203, thereby dispersing the adhered parts. The purpose of the inclined setting is to prevent the granules from remaining on the baffle 203.

[0045] Preferably, as Figure 3 shown, multiple staggered baffles 203 in this embodiment are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the dispersion pipe 202, and multiple baffles 203 respectively occupy half of the inside of the dispersion pipe 202. A funnel 9 is arranged on the communication port 3, and the conveying assembly 8 is installed on the top of the funnel 9. The conveying assembly 8 is driven to move by a motor 801.

[0046] Specifically, a plurality of baffles 203 are provided. The plurality of baffles 203 can improve the dispersion effect of the particles. The purpose of arranging them on the upper and lower sides of the dispersion tube 202 is to ensure that the air flow can blow the particles to collide with each baffle 203. The reason why the baffle 203 occupies half of the dispersion tube 202 is to ensure that the particles can pass through the plurality of baffles 203 in sequence, avoiding particle blockage at the baffle 203. The setting of the funnel 9 ensures that the conveying assembly 8 can be connected to the communication port 3. The conveying assembly 8 is driven by the motor 801 to ensure that the particles can continuously enter the conveying pipeline 2, avoiding blockage.

[0047] As a preferred embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, the conveying assembly 8 includes a support plate 802, an outer cylinder 803 fixedly arranged on the support plate 802, and an auger 804 rotatably arranged in the outer cylinder 803. Second feed ports 805 and second discharge ports 806 are respectively formed on the outer cylinder 803. The driving end of the motor 801 is fixedly connected to the auger 804. It should be noted that the support plate 802 is used to support the outer cylinder 803. The outer cylinder 803 is horizontally arranged. The second discharge port 806 is connected to the top of the funnel 9. The particles enter the outer cylinder 803 from the first feed port 5. After the rotation of the auger 804, the particles are discharged from the second discharge port 806. The motor 801 is fixedly installed at the end of the outer cylinder 803. After the auger 804 extends out of the outer cylinder 803, it is connected to the motor 801 through a coupling.

[0048] Preferably, still as Figure 4 shown, the second feed port 805 of this embodiment is located in the upper part of the outer cylinder 803, the second discharge port 806 is located in the lower part of the outer cylinder 803. The second discharge port 806 is communicated with the funnel 9. The spiral blade of the auger 804 is equal to the inner diameter of the outer cylinder 803. An observation port 807 is further arranged on the outer cylinder 803. A cover plate 808 is rotatably arranged on the observation port 807.

[0049] Specifically, the second feed port 805 is located below the discharge port of the granulator, facilitating the entry of particles into the outer cylinder 803. The second discharge port 806 is located in the lower part of the outer cylinder 803 to ensure that the particles can automatically fall into the funnel 9 after being conveyed to the second discharge port 806. The purpose that the outer diameter of the blade of the auger 804 is equal to the inner diameter of the outer cylinder 803 is to prevent the air flow from blowing the particles out of the outer cylinder 803, ensuring that the auger 804 can only convey the particles to the funnel 9. The observation port 807 is located between the second feed port 805 and the second discharge port 806, facilitating the observation of the situation of the auger 804 conveying the particles. One end of the cover plate 808 is rotationally connected at the observation port 807, and the other end is fastened to the outer cylinder 803 through a buckle. Such a setting facilitates the maintenance of the conveying assembly 8.

[0050] In the air-cooled particle conveyor of this embodiment, through the design of the fan 1 and the conveying pipeline 2, the effective conveying and cooling of particles are achieved, the particle adhesion is reduced, and the dispersibility of particles and the quality of the final product are improved; the setting and layout of the baffle 203 optimize the dispersion effect of particles in the dispersion pipe 202, reduce the adhesion of particles during the conveying process, and further improve the uniformity of particles; the design of the conveying component 8 improves the accuracy and efficiency of particle conveying, and the setting of the observation port 807 facilitates the observation and operation of the operator, improving the convenience and safety of the operation.

[0051] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
