Abstract

Technical Field

[0002] Masterbatch is a plastic colorant formed by dispersing a high proportion of pigment and thermoplastic resin. The production process of masterbatch generally goes through the raw material mixing process, stirring and extrusion process, pelletizing process, cooling process, air drying process, screening process, and then the finished product processing of masterbatch is completed.
[0003] During the masterbatch cooling process, a water-cooling circulation device is required to reduce the temperature. For example, a water-cooling circulation device for masterbatch processing, disclosed in Publication No. CN219171366U, includes a feed pipe connected to a feed drum at its top. A propeller is rotatably connected to the pipe's interior. A motor is fixed to the end of the propeller, distal to the pipe. The propeller continuously stirs the masterbatch in the pipe. By varying the position of the masterbatch in the pipe, uniform contact between the masterbatch and the pipe is ensured, thereby ensuring the cooling effect of the water-cooling circulation on the masterbatch.
[0004] However, in existing masterbatch processing water-cooling circulation devices, the motor, propeller, and feed pipe are all threaded or integrally produced with standard parts. The specifications of the propeller cannot be adjusted, resulting in a single stirring method. The stirring function cannot be changed for masterbatches with different characteristics (such as shape, size, density, etc.), resulting in an inability to achieve a good stirring effect, which in turn limits the cooling effect of masterbatches with different characteristics.

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0030] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0031] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, the present application provides a water-cooling circulation device 1 for processing masterbatch, comprising:
[0032] A feeding pipe 10, the top of which is connected to a feeding cylinder 11;
[0033] The stirring mechanism 30 includes a driving member 31, a connecting flange 33, and a plurality of propellers 35. One end of the connecting flange 33 is detachably connected to the end of the material conveying pipe 10, and the other end is connected to the driving member 31. The driving end of the driving member 31 is drivingly connected to a propeller 35. The propellers 35 are disposed in the material conveying pipe 10. Different propellers 35 have different pitches and / or blade diameters.
[0034] The water-cooling circulation mechanism 50 and the material conveying pipe 10 are connected in a sleeve manner.
[0035] The device includes a feed pipe 10, connected at its top by a feed cylinder 11. Feed cylinder 11 evenly feeds the masterbatch raw material into the pipe 10, ensuring a continuous supply of raw material. The design of the pipe 10 allows for smooth material flow to reduce blockage and improve production efficiency.
[0036] Secondly, the device also includes a stirring mechanism 30, which consists of a drive member 31, a connecting flange 33, and multiple propellers 35. One end of the connecting flange 33 is easily detachably connected to the end of the feed pipe 10 for easy maintenance and replacement. The other end is connected to the drive member 31, which drives the connected propellers 35. The propellers 35 are located within the feed pipe 10. Their design takes into account the differences in pitch and / or blade diameter of different propellers 35 to accommodate the stirring requirements of different materials, ensuring sufficient mixing of the materials within the feed pipe 10, thereby improving the uniformity and quality of the masterbatch.
[0037] Finally, the device also includes a water-cooling circulation mechanism 50, which is telescopically connected to the feed pipe 10. This mechanism 50 circulates cooling water to lower the temperature within the feed pipe 10, thereby lowering the temperature of the masterbatch being transported therein. The propeller 35 then stirs the masterbatch inside, shifting its position and ensuring uniform contact between the masterbatch and the feed pipe 10. This cooling method not only improves the stability of the production process but also extends the service life of the equipment.
[0038] In summary, the masterbatch processing water-cooling circulation device provided in the present application can be quickly disassembled and replaced with the feed pipe 10 through the driving member 31 and the propeller 35, and the stirring mechanism 30 has multiple propellers 35, different propellers 35 have different pitches and / or blade diameters, and can be selected according to different types of masterbatches and processing requirements, so that the device can adapt to a variety of different processing needs and realize rapid replacement of propellers 35 for different working requirements, thereby improving the adaptability of the device, ensuring uniform contact between the masterbatch and the feed pipe 10, and improving the cooling effect of the water-cooling circulation on the masterbatch.
[0039] Furthermore, the connecting flange 33 is a reducing flange, there are multiple driving members 31 , the torques of the multiple driving members 31 are different, and one of the driving members 31 is drivingly connected to one of the propellers 35 .
[0040] The connecting flange 33 is a reducing flange, which is designed to connect pipes or equipment of different diameters. In this embodiment, the reducing flanges of different brackets 90 can be connected to driving members 31 of different torques according to different propellers 35, thereby achieving adaptation between different propellers 35 and different driving members 31, and ensuring the driving force of the large-diameter propeller 35. For example, for a large-diameter propeller 35, a larger driving force is required, so a driving member 31 with a larger torque can be selected for connection. For a small-diameter propeller 35, a driving member 31 with a smaller torque can be selected to ensure its normal operation. The advantage of this design is that it can flexibly adapt to different types of propellers 35, thereby achieving the best driving effect. Through the connection of the reducing flange, it can be ensured that each propeller 35 can obtain a driving force that matches its size and performance, thereby improving the efficiency and reliability of the entire system. In addition, this design also has good versatility and scalability, and can be adjusted and optimized according to actual needs to meet the needs of different application scenarios.
[0041] Furthermore, the stirring mechanism 30 further includes a sealing member 37 , which is disposed between the connecting flange 33 and the end of the feed pipe 10 .
[0042] In this embodiment, the seal 37 can be a sealing ring, gasket, or the like. These seals 37 are positioned between the connecting flange 33 and the end of the feed pipe 10, ensuring the sealing performance of the entire mixing system. These seals 37 prevent material leakage during mixing and feeding within the feed pipe 10, thereby ensuring a smooth mixing process and avoiding environmental pollution and material waste. This design significantly improves the sealing performance of the mixing mechanism 30, further increasing the reliability and service life of the equipment.
[0043] Furthermore, the masterbatch processing water-cooling circulation device further includes a cleaning water pump 70 , which is detachably connected to the other end of the connecting flange 33 .
[0044] In this embodiment, a cleaning water pump 70 is also provided. The cleaning water pump 70 can replace the driving member 31 to transport clean water to the inside of the feed pipe 10, thereby achieving a cleaning effect inside the feed pipe 10 and removing impurities and dirt inside the feed pipe 10. It can also use its powerful suction ability to completely remove the sediment deposited at the bottom of the pipe or equipment, thereby ensuring that the entire feed pipe 10 is unobstructed.
[0045] To further enhance cleaning effectiveness, the cleaning water pump 70 is equipped with adjustable water outlet pressure and flow control. Users can flexibly adjust the pump's operating parameters based on actual production needs and water quality conditions to achieve optimal cleaning results. This design not only increases equipment flexibility but also reduces operating costs, resulting in greater economic benefits for users.
[0046] Furthermore, a collecting tank 13 is provided on one side of the discharge end of the conveying pipe 10 .
[0047] In this embodiment, a collection trough 13 is specially designed and installed on one side of the discharge end of the feed pipe 10. The purpose of this collection trough 13 is to better collect the material discharged from the feed pipe 10, ensuring that the material can be effectively collected and processed or used in the next step. The provision of the collection trough 13 not only improves the efficiency of material processing, but also reduces material waste during the transportation process, making the entire transportation system more efficient and economical. In another embodiment, the collection trough 13 can also collect impurities and dirt flushed from the feed pipe 10 by the clean water pump 70, thereby collecting waste and preventing indiscriminate discharge.
[0048] Furthermore, the design of collection trough 13 takes into account the need for easy maintenance and cleaning. Its smooth inner wall facilitates scraping and rinsing with cleaning tools, ensuring that the collection effect is maintained even after long-term use. The bottom of collection trough 13 is designed with a discharge port that can be connected to a waste disposal system or storage container, facilitating centralized processing or storage of collected materials.
[0049] In certain applications, the collection trough 13 can also be equipped with sensors and automated control systems. For example, when the material in the collection trough 13 reaches a certain height, a sensor triggers a signal, automatically activating a conveyor belt or screw conveyor to transfer the material to a designated location. This automated design not only reduces worker workload but also further improves the overall system's operational efficiency.
[0050] To accommodate different material characteristics and processing requirements, the collection tank 13 can be customized. For example, for flammable and explosive materials, the collection tank 13 can be constructed with explosion-proof materials and designs to ensure safe system operation. For materials that require dust-free processing, the collection tank 13 can be designed as a closed structure and equipped with appropriate filtration and purification systems to maintain environmental cleanliness.
[0051] Furthermore, the water-cooling circulation mechanism 50 includes a water tank 51, a circulating water pump 53 and a circulating pipe 55. The circulating water pump 53 is installed inside the water tank 51. The outer wall of the circulating water pump 53 is connected to the circulating pipe 55. The circulating pipe 55 and the water tank 51 are fixedly connected. The circulating pipe 55 is spirally wound along the outer wall of the feed pipe 10.
[0052] The water-cooling circulation mechanism 50 is mainly composed of a water tank 51, a circulating water pump and a circulating pipe 55. In this system, the water tank 51 increases the water source, and the circulating water pump provides power for water circulation. A circulating water pump is specially installed inside the water tank 51, and the outer wall of this water pump is connected to the circulating pipe 55 through a connector. The circulating pipe 55 and the water tank 51 are firmly connected by a fixing device to ensure the stability of the entire system. In addition, the circulating pipe 55 is wound in a spiral manner along the outer wall of the feed pipe 10, which can effectively cover the entire surface of the feed pipe 10, thereby achieving a uniform cooling effect. This design not only improves the cooling efficiency, but also ensures the stability and safety of the equipment during operation. In addition, a water inlet pipe and a drain pipe are provided on the top and side of the water tank 51, and the drain pipe is provided with a switch valve to control the opening and closing of the drain pipe.
[0053] To further optimize the performance of the water-cooling circulation mechanism 50, temperature sensors are installed on the top and sides of the water tank 51. These sensors monitor the water temperature in real time and transmit the data to the control system. The control system automatically adjusts the operating state of the circulating water pump according to the set temperature range, ensuring that the water temperature always remains within the optimal cooling range. In addition, a drain outlet is designed at the bottom of the water tank 51. Regular drainage removes impurities and sediment from the water, ensuring clean water quality and extending the service life of the equipment.
[0054] To cope with extreme weather conditions, the housing of the water-cooling circulation mechanism 50 is constructed of weather-resistant materials, capable of withstanding both extreme cold and heat. The entire system also incorporates an antifreeze circulation function to prevent the water in the water tank 51 from freezing and expanding in low-temperature environments, thereby preventing damage to the equipment. Furthermore, to enhance the system's energy efficiency, the circulating water pump utilizes variable frequency technology, adjusting power output based on actual cooling needs, thereby reducing energy consumption.
[0055] The design of the water-cooling circulation mechanism 50 takes ease of maintenance into account. Quick-connect connectors are used at the connections between the water tank 51 and the circulation piping 55, facilitating rapid disassembly and assembly, and facilitating routine inspection and maintenance. Furthermore, an observation window 15 is designed on the outer wall of the circulating water pump, allowing for intuitive inspection of the pump's internal operating status, allowing for the timely identification and resolution of potential issues.
[0056] Furthermore, the masterbatch processing water-cooling circulation device also includes a support seat 80 and a bracket 90, the water tank 51 is arranged on the support seat 80, one end of the bracket 90 is connected to the support seat 80, the other end of the bracket 90 is annular, and the feed pipe 10 is connected to the other end of the bracket 90.
[0057] The masterbatch processing water-cooling circulation device not only includes basic structural components but also features two key components: a support base 80 and a bracket 90. Specifically, the water tank 51 is meticulously designed and positioned atop the support base 80, ensuring the stability and safety of the entire device. Furthermore, one end of the bracket 90 is securely connected to the support base 80, providing the necessary support, enabling the entire device to withstand a certain load. Even more ingenious, the other end of the bracket 90 is designed in a circular ring shape. This design is not only aesthetically pleasing but also facilitates connection to the feed pipe 10, providing support for the feed pipe 10. The feed pipe 10 is cleverly connected to the other end of the bracket 90, ensuring smooth material transfer. The design of the entire device fully considers the convenience and efficiency of actual operation, making the masterbatch processing process smoother and more efficient.
[0058] Furthermore, there are multiple brackets 90 , and the multiple brackets 90 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the support base 80 .
[0059] In this embodiment, multiple brackets 90 are provided, each evenly spaced along the extension of the support base 80. Specifically, the brackets 90 are arranged in a series, with a certain distance between each bracket 90 to ensure stable support and uniform force distribution for the feed pipe 10. This spacing not only effectively distributes the load but also improves the overall seismic performance of the structure. This design allows the multiple brackets 90 to work together, allowing the support base 80 to withstand greater weight and pressure, thereby improving the reliability and service life of the entire device.
[0060] Further, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the bracket 90 further includes a limiting snap ring 91 , one end of which is rotatably connected to one side of the circular opening of the bracket 90 , and the limiting snap ring 91 is rotated so that the other end thereof is locked with the bracket 90 .
[0061] In this embodiment, the design of the bracket 90 also includes a limit snap ring 91. One end of this limit snap ring 91 is connected to one side of the circular opening of the bracket 90 by rotation. In this way, the limit snap ring 91 can rotate flexibly to achieve a tightening effect on the feed pipe 10 and achieve a fixed position effect of the feed pipe 10. The other end of the limit snap ring 91 is designed to be locked with the bracket 90. This ensures that the limit snap ring 91 can be firmly locked after being rotated to the appropriate position, preventing it from moving or falling off. This design not only improves the stability and safety of the bracket 90, but also makes operation more convenient and flexible, meeting the needs of different usage scenarios.
[0062] Furthermore, an observation window 15 is provided on the side of the feeding pipe 10 .
[0063] In this embodiment, a specially designed observation window 15 is provided on the side of the conveying pipe 10. This observation window 15 allows the operator to conveniently observe the flow of material within the pipe, thereby better monitoring and adjusting the conveying process. The provision of observation window 15 not only improves operational convenience but also enhances the transparency and controllability of the entire conveying system.
[0064] It can be understood that the above embodiments only express the preferred implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the patent scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, without departing from the concept of the present invention, the above technical features can be freely combined, and several deformations and improvements can be made, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
