[0020] The utility model uses the fourth spiral feeder 9 to send the screen residue and pellets that do not meet the particle size produced by the twin-screw granulator 8 to the twin-screw feeding bin 12, mix them with the screened pellets and send them to the twin-screw granulator 8 for granulation, effectively granulating the screen residue and pellets that do not meet the particle size again, without affecting product quality and reducing costs; the first spiral feeder 3, the second spiral feeder 5 and the third spiral feeder 7 can ensure the transportation efficiency while making the entire granulation process equipment compact, efficient and reasonable.

[0021] The above-mentioned pellet return device can be further optimized and / or improved according to actual needs:

[0022] Example 2: The difference between it and Example 1 is that: Figure 1 As shown, a first feed hopper is provided at the lower end of the first spiral feeder 3 below the second processing pipeline 11, a first discharge pipe is provided at the upper end of the first spiral feeder 3 above the feed port of the storage bin 4, a second feed hopper is provided at the lower end of the second spiral feeder 5 below the discharge port of the storage bin 4, a second discharge pipe is provided at the upper end of the second spiral feeder 5 above the feed port of the vibrating screen 6, a third feed hopper is provided at the lower end of the third spiral feeder 7 below the discharge port of the vibrating screen 6, a third discharge pipe is provided at the upper end of the third spiral feeder 7 above the feed port of the twin-screw feeding bin 12, a fourth discharge pipe is provided at the upper end of the fourth spiral feeder 9 above the feed port of the twin-screw feeding bin 12, and a fourth feed hopper is provided at the lower end of the fourth spiral feeder 9. The first, second, third and fourth feed hoppers are all prism-shaped with a larger upper portion and a smaller lower portion, and the first discharge pipe, the second, third and fourth discharge pipes are all arranged in an inclined shape.

[0023] During use, the first, second, third and fourth feed hoppers are provided to facilitate loading, and the first, second, third and fourth discharge pipes are provided to facilitate discharge.

A feeding hole 14 is provided in the center of the baffle 17. As needed, the feeding hole 14 is a square hole with a diameter of 2CM*2CM.

[0025] During use, since the material in the fourth feed hopper comes from the screen residue and the pellets that do not meet the particle size, the baffle 17 and the discharge hole 14 are set to control the discharge speed of the fourth spiral feeder 9, effectively avoiding the problem of fast discharge of pellets and ensuring uniform return of materials.

[0026] Example 4: The difference between it and Example 1 to Example 3 is that: Figure 1 、 2 As shown, a bracket 15 is provided above the fourth feed hopper.

[0027] During use, the residue and the granular materials that do not meet the particle size are collected by ton bags, which are placed on the bracket 15 by a forklift. The bottom of the ton bag is open, and the residue and the granular materials that do not meet the particle size can flow into the fourth feed hopper of the fourth spiral feeder 9 by themselves. The operator does not need to use small bags to return the materials, which can reduce the operator's workload and improve work efficiency.

[0028] Embodiment 5: The embodiment 5 differs from the embodiments 1 to 4 in that it further includes a time relay, a drive module is provided on the fourth screw feeder 9, and the time relay is connected to the drive module of the fourth screw feeder 9. The drive module is a motor as needed.

When the set value of the operating time and start-stop interval preset by the time relay is reached, the motor of the fourth spiral feeder 9 is controlled to start, so as to control the operation and start-stop of the fourth spiral feeder 9. In addition, the return ratio of the sieve residue and the granular materials that do not meet the particle size can also be controlled to ensure uniform return of the material, and the sieve residue and the granular materials that do not meet the particle size can be granulated again.

[0031] During use, the screened PVC powder is fed into the twin-screw feeding bin 12 by the third screw feeder 7, and then the screen residue and granules that do not meet the particle size are fed into the twin-screw feeding bin 12 by the fourth screw feeder 9, and are stirred evenly by the stirrer 16 without affecting the quality of the product and ensuring uniform return of the material.

[0032] As needed, the pipelines and equipment of the pellet return device can be equipped with conventional valves, thermometers, pressure gauges, etc. that are well known and used in the art according to production needs.

[0033] The above technical features constitute the embodiments of the present invention, which have strong adaptability and implementation effect. Non-essential technical features can be added or removed according to actual needs to meet the requirements of different situations.

[0034] The use process of the embodiment of the present utility model is as follows: First, the materials and additives are mixed and reacted in a hot mixer 1 (120°C) to obtain PVC powder, which is then sent to a cold mixer 2 for cooling. After cooling to room temperature, the PVC powder in the cold mixer 2 is sent to a storage bin 4 by a first screw feeder 3 for temporary storage. The PVC powder in the storage bin 4 is sent to a vibrating screen 6 by a second screw feeder 5 for screening. The screened PVC powder is sent to a twin-screw feeding bin 12 by a third screw feeder 7, and then to a twin-screw granulator 8 for granulation. When a large amount of sieve residue and unqualified PVC pellets are generated in the twin-screw granulator 8, the sieve residue and unqualified PVC pellets can be regularly sent to the twin-screw feeding bin 12 by a fourth screw feeder 9, stirred and mixed with the PVC powder, and then sent to the twin-screw granulator 8.
