[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] MPP stands for microporous expanded polypropylene, which specifically refers to polypropylene (PP) porous foam materials with cell sizes less than 100μm. A stricter definition requires cell sizes less than 10μm and cell densities greater than 10^9 per cubic centimeter. MPP materials are widely used in packaging, automotive, construction, medical, and other fields. They can be used to make food packaging materials, automotive parts, thermal insulation materials, sound-absorbing materials, etc. Over time, PP materials may experience performance degradation, such as brittleness, reduced strength, and weakened impact resistance. PP material modification is necessary to overcome this. When modifying PP materials, physical blending or chemical modification methods are usually used. When using physical blending methods, twin-screw extruders are generally used. Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, this embodiment provides an anti-fracture MPP material mixing and modification device, including a processing box 1 and a support base 2, and a number of support rods 21 are connected between the processing box 1 and the support base 2. Considering that the twin-screw extruder may not mix the materials evenly during use, and the materials may be stuck between the threads of the extrusion screws, resulting in a large amount of material accumulation, affecting normal operation, the specific details are as follows: a partition plate is provided inside the processing box 1, and the partition plate divides the interior of the processing box 1 into a first operating box 10 and a second operating box 11. Two first extrusion screws 101 are rotatably connected inside the first operating box 10, and two second extrusion screws 111 are rotatably connected inside the second operating box 11, wherein: the first extrusion screw 101 and the second extrusion screw 111 are both installed with a pushing member 1111 at the ends near the opposite inner walls of the processing box 1, and a conveying hole 16 is opened on the surface of the partition plate.
[0022] The improvement of this embodiment is that:
[0023] The present invention takes into account that the twin-screw extruder may not mix the materials evenly during use, and the materials may get stuck between the threads of the extrusion screws, causing a large amount of material accumulation, affecting normal work. At the same time, the gas generated by the extrusion of the materials during production affects the air environment of the workshop and endangers human health. Therefore, by providing two pushing members 1111 and a group of first extrusion screws 101 and a group of second extrusion screws 111 with opposite conveying directions, it is avoided that the materials get stuck between the threads of the extrusion screws, causing a large amount of material accumulation, thereby avoiding affecting work and affecting work efficiency, and at the same time, the materials can be mixed more fully and evenly.
[0024] Considering how to save production costs while making the device run, the details are as follows: a driving motor 12 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the processing box 1, and the output end of the driving motor 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the first extrusion screw 101. The ends of the first extrusion screw 101 and the second extrusion screw 111 both pass through the processing box 1 to the outside. A main pulley 1012 is installed at the end of the first extrusion screw 101, and a secondary pulley 1112 is installed at the end of the second extrusion screw 111. A driving belt 1013 is connected between the main pulley 1012 and the secondary pulley 1112. The ends of the two first extrusion screws 101 close to the main pulley 1012 are both installed. The gears are meshed with each other, and the ends of the two second extrusion screws 111 near the secondary pulley 1112 are both equipped with meshed gears. By starting the drive motor 12, one of the first extrusion screws 101 is rotated to drive the pushing member 1111 to rotate. Because of the action of the two meshing gears, the two first extrusion screws 101 are rotated. A driving belt 1013 is connected between the main pulley 1012 and the secondary pulley 1112. When the first extrusion screw 101 rotates, the second extrusion screw 111 can be driven to rotate. Similarly, due to the action of the two meshing gears, the two second extrusion screws 111 and the pushing member 1111 are rotated.
[0025] Taking into account that the gas generated by material extrusion during production affects the air environment of the workshop and endangers human health, an installation box 13 is provided on the outer wall of the processing box 1, and the inner wall of the installation box 13 is rotatably connected to a rotary shaft 131, and a fan 1311 is installed at the end of the rotary shaft 131, and a transmission belt is connected between the rotary shaft 131 and the first extrusion screw 101. A collecting box 14 is provided on the outer wall of the processing box 1, and a mesh filter plate 141 is installed inside the collecting box 14, and adsorption carbon is provided inside the mesh filter plate 141, wherein: the fan 1311 is adapted to the position of the mesh filter plate 141 and is on the same horizontal line. When the first extrusion screw 101 rotates, the rotary shaft 131 rotates due to the action of the transmission belt, thereby driving the fan 1311 to blow the gas toward the collection box 14, wherein the adsorption carbon provided in the mesh filter plate 141 adsorbs and blocks the exhaust gas.
[0026] In order to facilitate the simultaneous addition of raw materials, a feed barrel 15 is installed on the upper surface of the processing box 1. A plurality of feed ports 151 are provided on the outer wall of the feed barrel 15. By providing a plurality of feed ports 151, a variety of raw materials can be added at the same time to avoid uneven mixing of the front and rear raw materials.
[0027] Secondly, a discharge port 112 is installed on the lower surface of the processing box 1 to discharge the mixed and modified PP material.
[0028] In order to fully mix the raw materials, the conveying direction of the two first extrusion screws 101 is opposite to the conveying direction of the two second extrusion screws 111. The opposite conveying directions can perform secondary mixing on the raw materials to make the mixing more uniform.
[0029] Secondly, the pushing member 1111 is composed of a connecting sleeve and a plurality of pushing plates. The arrangement of the plurality of pushing plates can push the mixed raw materials to prevent them from accumulating at the end of the processing box 1.
[0030] When the utility model is used in a specific manner, after the user starts the driving motor 12, the polypropylene, polyethylene and compatibilizer are simultaneously put into the feeding port 151 through the feeding barrel 15 and enter the first operating box 10. The start of the driving motor 12 can make one of the first extrusion screws 101 rotate and drive the pushing member 1111 to rotate. Because the two meshing gears make the two first extrusion screws 101 rotate, a driving belt 1013 is connected between the main pulley 1012 and the secondary pulley 1112. When the first extrusion screw 101 rotates, the second extrusion screw 111 can be driven to rotate. In principle, due to the action of the two meshing gears, the two second extrusion screws 111 and the pushing member 1111 rotate, and the raw materials are first squeezed and transported from right to left in the first operating box 10, and then fall into the second operating box 11 through the conveying hole 16 to be squeezed and transported from left to right; while the driving motor 12 is started to rotate the first extrusion screw 101, the rotation shaft 131 is rotated due to the action of the transmission belt, thereby driving the fan 1311 to blow the gas toward the collection box 14, wherein the adsorption carbon provided in the mesh filter plate 141 adsorbs and blocks the exhaust gas, and finally the mixed and modified PP material is discharged through the discharge port 112.
