Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of raw material tanks, in particular to a raw material tank for polyurethane foaming. Background Art

[0002] Polyurethane foaming is a common material preparation method. Its raw materials mainly include two main components: polyether polyol and isocyanate. These two raw materials react under specific conditions to produce polyurethane foam. Polyether polyol (also known as A material or white material) provides the basic structure and elasticity of the foam. Isocyanate (also known as B material or black material) reacts with polyether polyol to form the hard segment of polyurethane, which gives the foam strength and durability. Traditionally, these two materials are contained in two separate raw material tanks. Therefore, two sets of motors and agitators are required, which increases costs and takes up a lot of space.

[0003] The patent document with announcement number CN 202640645 U discloses a raw material tank for a polyurethane foaming machine, which includes a tank body with an end cover and a support leg. A stirring device driven by a power device passes through the tank body. The cavity of the tank body is separated into a white material chamber and a black material chamber by a partition. The upper and lower ends of the white material chamber and the black material chamber are respectively provided with a feed port and a discharge port. The white material chamber and the black material chamber are integrated into one tank body, thereby reducing the footprint of the entire raw material tank system and reducing the consumption of raw materials, effectively saving costs. A stirring device passes through the white material chamber and the black material chamber respectively. The upper ends of the two stirring devices are respectively matched with the drive gear through a transmission gear, and the drive gear is connected to the power unit through a drive shaft. After adopting this structural form, the power unit can simultaneously drive the stirring devices in the white material chamber and the black material chamber to rotate, so that the two work synchronously, which not only simplifies the structure of the entire raw material tank system, saves costs, but also reduces the consumption of resources and energy. However, the utility model divides the tank into two left and right chambers, and therefore needs to be equipped with two stirring shafts, and additional transmission components are required to enable the motor to drive the two stirring shafts, resulting in still high costs and still large horizontal space occupation.
