[0032] As Figure 1 - Figure 3 shown, a plastic particle homogenization bin 1 provided by the present application includes:
[0033] A bin body 10, a discharge port 11 is opened at the bottom of the bin body 10, an aggregate tank 13 is arranged below the discharge port 11, and a cross-discharge port 15 is opened on the side of the bin body 10;
[0034] The discharge pipe 30 is connected to the cross-discharge port 15, and the outlet of the discharge pipe 30 is arranged towards the aggregate chute 13 of another silo body 10.
[0035] The silo body 10 is the core part of the whole device. Its bottom is designed with a discharge opening 11, and the function of this discharge opening 11 is to discharge the plastic particles in the silo. In order to ensure that the discharged plastic particles can smoothly enter the next link, an aggregate chute 13 is specially arranged below the discharge opening 11. The function of the aggregate chute 13 is to collect the plastic particles discharged from the discharge opening 11 and guide them to the next processing link.
[0036] The discharge pipe 30 is an important component connecting the cross-discharge port 15 and the aggregate chute 13 of another silo body 10. The outlet of the discharge pipe 30 is arranged towards the aggregate chute 13 of another silo body 10 to ensure that the material can smoothly transfer from one silo body 10 to another silo body 10. Through this design, efficient material exchange between two or more silo bodies 10 can be realized. The material can be directly transferred from the inside of the silo body 10 to the aggregate chute 13 of another silo body 10, achieving the effect of rapid transfer, without consuming too much manpower and material resources for transfer, making the material handling process smoother and more efficient.
[0037] In this application, a cross-discharge port 15 is provided on the side of the silo body 10. The cross-discharge port 15 is connected to the discharge pipe 30 and extends through the discharge pipe 30 into the aggregate chute 13 of another silo body 10. Thus, the plastic particles in one silo body 10 can be discharged through the cross-discharge port 15 and the discharge pipe 30 into the aggregate chute 13 of another silo body 10, realizing cross-discharging between two or more silo bodies 10, facilitating cross-discharging and mixing of materials, with simple operation, improving convenience and working efficiency.
[0038] As Figure 2 - Figure 6 shown, a plastic particle homogenizing silo 1 provided in this application includes:
[0039] A silo body 10, the bottom of the silo body 10 is provided with a discharge opening 11, an aggregate chute 13 is arranged below the discharge opening 11, and a cross-discharge port 15 is provided on the side of the silo body 10;
[0040] A discharge pipe 30, the discharge pipe 30 is connected to the cross-discharge port 15, and the outlet of the discharge pipe 30 is arranged towards the aggregate chute 13 of another silo body 10.
[0041] Furthermore, the discharge pipe 30 is also provided with a switching valve 31, and the switching valve 31 communicates with the inside of the pipe body of the discharge pipe 30.
[0042] In this embodiment, the discharge pipe 30 is also equipped with a switching valve 31, and the switching valve 31 can be in manual or automatic control mode. In the manual mode, the switching valve 31 in the manual mode can be a ball valve, a knife gate valve, etc., and the operator can adjust the flow rate of the discharge pipe 30 or the switching valve 31 by rotating the valve handle; the automatic control mode can be a solenoid valve, a discharge valve, etc., and the operator can adjust the flow rate of the discharge pipe 30 or the switching valve 31 through the controller to ensure the smooth transportation of materials. The automatic control mode is connected to the central control system and automatically adjusts the opening of the valve according to the production requirements and the sensor feedback signal to achieve precise material transportation. Through the switching valve 31, the feeding switch, the feeding flow rate and speed of the discharge pipe 30 can be controlled, the replacement of the connecting pipe, the feeding type, etc. can be realized, and the freedom of material transfer is improved.
[0043] To improve the reliability and safety of the system, the discharge pipe 30 is also equipped with an emergency cut-off device. In case of an accident or system failure, the operator can quickly activate the emergency cut-off device to instantly close the switching valve 31 to prevent material leakage or further equipment damage. In addition, a heat preservation layer is designed on the pipe wall of the discharge pipe 30 to reduce heat loss and ensure that the material maintains a constant temperature during transportation.
[0044] For easy maintenance and repair, each component of the discharge pipe 30 is designed into a modular structure. In this way, when a component fails, it can be quickly disassembled and replaced, greatly shortening the downtime. At the same time, the surface of the discharge pipe 30 has been specially treated and has good corrosion resistance, extending the service life of the equipment.
[0045] The switching valve 31 is connected to the inside of the pipe body of the discharge pipe 30. Specifically, this switching valve 31 is designed to be able to control the material flow inside the discharge pipe 30, so as to achieve precise control of the material. The setting of the switching valve 31 makes the entire discharge system more flexible and efficient, and the material flow can be opened or closed at any time according to actual needs. In addition, the installation position and structural design of the switching valve 31 have also been optimized to ensure its reliable operation under various working conditions, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the entire system.
[0046] Furthermore, the switching valve 31 is connected to one side of the discharge pipe 30 close to the cross-discharge port 15.
[0047] In this embodiment, the switching valve 31 is connected to one side of the discharge pipe 30 close to the cross-discharge port 15, so that the valve is arranged close to the cross-discharge port 15, avoiding excessive material residue in the discharge pipe 30 after the valve is closed, and reducing the material residue in the discharge pipe 30.
[0048] Furthermore, the switch valve 31 includes a rotating shaft 311 and a shielding member 313. The side wall of the discharge pipe 30 is provided with a connecting port 32 in a radial direction. The rotating shaft 311 is connected to the outer wall of the discharge pipe 30. One end of the shielding member 313 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 311. The shielding member 313 is rotated to drive the other end thereof to rotate and extend into or out of the connecting port 32.
[0049] In this embodiment, the design of the switch valve 31 includes a rotating shaft 311 and a shielding member 313. Specifically, a connection port 32 is provided on the side wall of the discharge pipe 30 in a radial direction to facilitate connection with external components. The rotating shaft 311 is designed to be connected to the outer wall of the discharge pipe 30 to ensure its stability and reliability. One end of the shielding member 313 is connected to the rotating shaft 311 by rotation, so that the other end of the shielding member 313 can be driven to perform a corresponding rotational action by rotating the shielding member 313. In this way, the other end of the shielding member 313 can extend into or out of the connection port 32, thereby realizing the opening and closing function of the switch valve 31.
[0050] In this embodiment, this design not only ensures the flexibility and controllability of the switch valve 31, but also improves its overall reliability and durability. By cleverly combining the rotating shaft 311 and the shielding member 313, the operation of the switch valve 31 is made simpler and more efficient. In addition, this design also has good sealing performance, ensuring that no leakage occurs during the switching process, thereby ensuring the safety and stability of the entire system.
[0051] Furthermore, the switch valve 31 further includes a handle 315 , and the handle 315 is connected to the other end of the shielding member 313 .
[0052] In the present embodiment, the switch valve 31 also includes a handle 315, which is connected to the other end of the shielding member 313 through a connector. In the present embodiment, the design and structure of the handle 315 can be diversified to adapt to different usage requirements and operating habits. For example, the handle 315 can be round, square or any other shape so that the user can easily hold and operate the switch valve 31. The material of the handle 315 can also be selected according to the actual application, such as plastic, metal or rubber, to ensure its durability and feel. In addition, the connection method between the handle 315 and the shielding member 313 can be threaded, snap-fit or other mechanical connection methods to ensure the reliability and stability of the connection. Through these design details, the overall performance and user experience of the switch valve 31 are further improved.
[0053] like Figure 2 - Figure 4 As shown, the present application provides a plastic particle homogenization silo 1, comprising:
[0054] The silo main body 10 has a discharge opening 11 at its bottom, and an aggregate trough 13 is provided below the discharge opening 11. A cross discharge opening 15 is provided on the side of the silo main body 10;
[0055] A discharge pipe 30 is connected to the cross discharge opening 15, and the outlet of the discharge pipe 30 is arranged facing the aggregate trough 13 of another silo main body 10.
[0056] Furthermore, the discharge pipe 30 includes a connecting section 30a and an extension section 30b. One end of the connecting section 30a is connected to the cross discharge opening 15, and the other end is detachably connected to the extension section 30b. The other end of the extension section 30b is arranged facing the aggregate trough 13 of another silo main body 10.
[0057] In this embodiment, the design of the discharge pipe 30 includes two main parts: the connecting section 30a and the extension section 30b. One end of the connecting section 30a is tightly connected to the cross discharge opening 15 to ensure that the material can flow smoothly out of the discharge opening. The other end of the connecting section 30a is designed to be detachable so that it can be easily connected or separated from the extension section 30b when needed. The other end of the extension section 30b is arranged facing the aggregate trough 13 of another silo main body 10 to ensure that the material can be smoothly transferred from the discharge pipe 30 to the aggregate trough 13. This design not only facilitates the transfer of materials but also improves the flexibility and maintainability of the equipment. The detachable connection method between the connecting section 30a and the extension section 30b can adopt various different methods to ensure flexibility and convenience. Specifically, these connection methods can include but are not limited to bolt connection, snap connection, pin connection, bonding, welding, and using quick release devices, etc. Through these methods, users can easily assemble or disassemble the connecting section 30a and the extension section 30b according to actual needs, thereby realizing the rapid adjustment and reconfiguration of the equipment. This design not only improves the applicability of the equipment but also facilitates the daily maintenance and replacement work, greatly enhancing the work efficiency and operation flexibility.
[0058] Furthermore, a lock catch 33 is provided at the end of the connecting section 30a, and a limiting member 35 is provided at the end of the extension section 30b. The lock catch 33 is snap-connected to the limiting member 35 to lock the connecting section 30a and the extension section 30b.
[0059] At the end part of the connecting section 30a, the lock catch 33 structure is designed to facilitate a firm connection with the extension section 30b. When it is necessary to combine the connecting section 30a and the extension section 30b, just snap-connect the lock catch 33 of the connecting section 30a with the limiting member 35 of the extension section 30b, so that a tight combination of the two can be achieved, thus achieving the locking effect. This design not only improves the reliability of the connection but also facilitates disassembly and reassembly, enhancing the flexibility and convenience of use.
[0060] As Figure 2 - Figure 5 shown, a plastic pellet homogenizing bin 1 provided by the present application includes:
[0061] A bin main body 10, a discharge opening 11 is provided at the bottom of the bin main body 10, an aggregate trough 13 is arranged below the discharge opening 11, and a cross discharge opening 15 is provided on the side surface of the bin main body 10;
[0062] A discharge pipe 30, the discharge pipe 30 is connected to the cross discharge opening 15, and the outlet of the discharge pipe 30 is arranged towards the aggregate trough 13 of another bin main body 10.
[0063] Furthermore, there are two material conveyors for the bin main body 10 to set the cross discharge opening 15, the two cross discharge openings 15 are located on the opposite sides in the radial direction of the bin main body 10, the number of connecting sections 30a of the discharge pipe 30 is two, one connecting section 30a is connected to one cross discharge opening 15, a switching valve 31 is arranged on one connection, and the extension section 30b is detachably connected to one of the connecting sections 30a.
[0064] In this embodiment, there are two material conveyors for the bin main body 10 to set the cross discharge opening 15, the two cross discharge openings 15 are located on the opposite sides in the radial direction of the bin main body 10, and further, the extension section 30b can be connected to one of the connecting sections 30a to realize discharging in different directions. With such an arrangement, different bin main bodies 10 can be arranged on both sides of the bin main body 10, and by connecting the extension section 30b to different connecting sections 30a, the discharging and mixing of the bin main body 10 and another different bin main body 10 are realized, improving flexibility and convenience. For the connecting section 30a that needs to discharge materials after connection, the switching valve 31 can be opened for free discharging; for the connecting section 30a that is not used, the switching valve 31 can be closed to maintain the sealing performance of the connecting section 30a and avoid discharging.
[0065] Furthermore, the material of the discharge pipe 30 is stainless steel or aluminum alloy;
[0066] In this embodiment, the material of the discharge pipe 30 can be selected from these two materials: stainless steel or aluminum alloy. Stainless steel has good corrosion resistance and high strength, and can maintain stable performance in various harsh environments, being suitable for occasions that require long-term use. Aluminum alloy has the characteristics of light weight and high strength, is easy to process and install, and is applicable to application scenarios that require reducing the overall weight. According to specific application requirements and environmental conditions, the most suitable material can be selected to ensure the performance and service life of the discharge pipe 30.
[0067] And / or, the discharge pipe 30 is arranged to incline downward along the cross discharge opening 15 towards another bin main body 10.
[0068] In this embodiment, the discharge pipe 30 is arranged to slope downward along the cross-discharge opening 15 towards the other silo body 10. The outlet of the discharge pipe 30 is kept facing the aggregate trough 13 of the other silo body 10, improving the stability and accuracy of material discharging.
[0069] Furthermore, the discharge pipe 30 and the silo body 10 are of an integrally formed structure.
[0070] In this embodiment, the discharge pipe 30 and the silo body 10 adopt an integrally formed manufacturing process, ensuring a seamless connection between the two and the stability of the overall structure. This design not only improves the reliability of the equipment, but also facilitates installation and maintenance. At the same time, it reduces potential leakage points, ensuring the safety and efficiency of material transmission. The integrally formed structure of the discharge pipe 30 and the silo body 10 achieves a perfect fusion of the connection part through precise molds and advanced forming techniques during the manufacturing process, with almost no visible seams. This high degree of integration not only enhances the load-bearing capacity and compressive performance of the entire silo system, but also enables it to maintain a stable operating state in various working environments.
[0071] In addition, the integrally formed design simplifies the assembly process of the silo and reduces production costs. Since the number of components is reduced, the failure rate caused by loose or damaged components is also reduced, thus extending the service life of the silo. At the same time, this design also makes the cleaning and maintenance of the silo more convenient, and the cleaning work of the entire system can be completed with simple operations, improving work efficiency.
[0072] During the material transmission process, the integrally formed structure of the discharge pipe 30 and the silo body 10 can effectively prevent material leakage and scattering, ensuring the cleanliness of the production environment and the safety of the production process. In addition, due to the reduction of the resistance during material transmission, the material transmission efficiency is also improved, reducing energy consumption.
