Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of pipe forming, in particular to a pipe forming sizing and cooling device. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of plastic pipes, extrusion molding is one of the key links. After the plastic raw materials are heated and melted by an extruder, they are extruded through a pipe extrusion head at the end of the extruder and enter a pipe mold for forming. In order to ensure the dimensional accuracy and straightness of the extruded pipe, a sizing sleeve is usually installed on the pipe extrusion head of the extruder to control the stability of the pipe diameter. However, the sizing sleeves in the prior art often do not have a cooling function, which means that under the continuous operation for a long time, due to the influence of the continuous high temperature of the plastic melt, the temperature of the sizing sleeve will also rise accordingly.

[0003] When the temperature of the sizing sleeve rises, when its surface contacts the inner wall of the plastic pipe in the molten state, it cannot effectively help the inner wall of the pipe cool down and solidify quickly. As a result, the plastic pipe contacts the surface of the high-temperature sizing sleeve before it is completely cooled, which is likely to cause adhesion. This adhesion will not only affect the smooth sliding of the pipe during the sizing process, but also lead to a decrease in the working efficiency of the extruder, thus indirectly affecting the production rate of the entire production line. In addition, the deformation or quality problems that may occur on the inner wall of the pipe due to the failure to cool in time will also have an adverse impact on the subsequent processing and the final performance of the product. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a pipe forming sizing and cooling device to solve the problem of insufficient cooling caused by the temperature rise of the existing sizing sleeve during long-term use.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a pipe forming sizing and cooling device, a sizing sleeve is provided on the pipe extrusion head at the end of the extruder, the outer diameter of the sizing sleeve is flush with the outer surface of the inner ring of the extrusion ring of the pipe extrusion head, the inside of the sizing sleeve is a hollow structure, the inside of the outer ring body of the sizing sleeve is a closed structure, two interfaces are symmetrically provided at the end of the outer ring body of the sizing sleeve, the two interfaces are respectively communicated with a water outlet pipe and a water inlet pipe, the water outlet pipe is communicated with a cold water pool, and the cold water pool is communicated with the water inlet pipe through a water pump to form a cycle.

[0006] In a preferred solution, a protruding positioning ring is provided on the surface of the pipe extrusion head, and the end of the sizing sleeve is sleeved on the positioning ring.

[0007] In a preferred solution, an installation ring is provided inside the tail end of the sizing sleeve, and a plurality of installation rods pass through the installation ring and are threadedly connected to the end face of the pipe extrusion head.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, a spiral ring is further provided inside the outer ring body of the sizing sleeve, and the outer ring of the spiral ring is close to the inner wall of the outer ring of the sizing sleeve with a distance left therebetween.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the water outlet pipe is connected to the cooling tower, the cooling tower is connected to the cold water tank, and a refrigeration device is provided inside the cold water tank.

[0010] The utility model provides a pipe forming and sizing cooling device. By arranging a water cooling channel inside the outer ring body of the sizing sleeve and connecting it to the cold water tank, the circulating flow of cooling water can be realized. In this way, the heat absorbed by the sizing sleeve during operation can be effectively taken away, keeping the sizing sleeve at a lower working temperature, and improving the cooling efficiency. Good cooling performance can prevent adhesion between the inner wall of the pipe and the sizing sleeve, reduce the resistance of the pipe during the sizing process, thereby accelerating the extrusion speed and improving the production efficiency. By maintaining stable cooling conditions, it can ensure that the inner wall of the pipe is evenly cooled and solidified during the forming process, avoiding deformation or other quality problems caused by overheating, thus ensuring the quality of the final product. Continuous cooling can reduce the damage to the sizing sleeve material caused by high temperature, extend the service life of the equipment, and reduce the maintenance cost. A sizing device with good cooling performance can not only improve the production efficiency, but also ensure the high-quality output of the product, which is crucial for enhancing the competitiveness of plastic pipe products in the market.

[0018] The sizing sleeve 6 is installed at the front end of the pipe extruder to control the size of the extruded pipe and ensure that the diameter of the pipe is consistent. The outer diameter of the sizing sleeve should be flush with the outer surface of the inner ring of the pipe extruder to ensure that the plastic melt can pass smoothly and obtain the correct size in the sizing sleeve. The inside of the sizing sleeve is a hollow structure to facilitate the circulation of cooling water to achieve a cooling effect.
