DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The following is a combination of the appended examples of the present invention Figure 1-3, clearly and completely describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] As shown in the figure, a static mixer includes a mixing tube 1, a mixing unit 2 and an inner liner tube 3. The outer diameter of the inner liner tube 3 matches the inner diameter of the mixing tube 1. Several mixing units 2 are arranged in the inner liner tube 3. The upper and lower ends of the inner liner tube 3 are respectively connected with a first pressure cover 4 and a second pressure cover 5 that are tightly against the mixing unit 2. The first pressure cover 4 and the second pressure cover 5 are respectively provided with a first through hole 41 and a second through hole 51. A limiting ring 42 is formed on the circumference of the first pressure cover 4. The upper and lower ends of the mixing tube 1 are respectively connected with a first connecting flange 11 and a second connecting flange 12. The inner liner tube 3 is inserted into the mixing tube 1 so that the limiting ring 42 is against the end face of the first connecting flange 11. The first connecting flange 11 is connected with a fastening flange 6 for tightening the limiting ring 42. The fastening flange 6 is provided with a third through hole 61 aligned with the first through hole 41.

[0021] Through the above structure, after the mixing unit 2 is placed in the inner liner tube 3, it is retained in the inner liner tube 3 by the limitation of the first pressure cover 4 and the second pressure cover 5. After the inner liner tube 3 is inserted into the mixing tube 1 and the limiting ring 42 is pressed against the first connecting flange 11 by the fastening flange 6, the inner liner tube 3 is retained in the mixing tube 1 by the limitation of the limiting ring 42 by the fastening flange 6, that is, the mixing unit 2 in the inner liner tube 3 is retained in the mixing tube 1. When performing the material mixing operation, the second connecting flange 12 is fixedly connected to the subsequent processing equipment or the mixed material collection equipment, and is connected to the material feeding pipe through the third through hole 61 on the fastening flange 6. The two materials to be mixed enter the inner liner tube 3 after passing through the third through hole 61 and the first through hole 41 in turn. The two materials entering the inner liner tube 3 are mixed by the action of the mixing unit 2 when passing through the inner liner tube 3. The mixed material flows out of the inner liner tube 3 through the second through hole 51 to complete the mixing of the materials. When the type of mixing unit 2 needs to be changed to adapt to the mixing operation of different materials, the fastening flange 6 is removed, the liner tube 3 is pulled out from the mixing tube 1, and then the liner tube 3 with different types of mixing units 2 inside is inserted into the mixing tube 1, and the fastening flange 6 is installed to realize the replacement of the mixing unit 2. Since the mixing tube 1 does not need to be removed from the equipment during the replacement process, the operation of replacing the mixing unit 2 is facilitated, making this static mixer more applicable. Moreover, after the liner tube 3 is removed, it is also convenient to carry out deep cleaning of the mixing unit 2.

[0022] In addition, the limiting ring 42 is polygonal, and a limiting groove 13 matching the limiting ring 42 is provided on the end face of the first connecting flange 11. The limiting ring 42 is placed in the limiting groove 13. Through the cooperation between the limiting ring 42 and the limiting groove 13, the rotation of the inner liner tube 3 relative to the mixing tube 1 is limited, so that the inner liner tube 3 is more stably maintained in the mixing tube 1, thereby ensuring the stability of the mixing unit 2 when mixing materials.

[0023] In addition, a transfer tube 7 is connected to the third through hole 61, and a four-way joint 8 is connected to the transfer tube 7. The four-way joint 8 is respectively connected to the feed pipe and the cleaning pipe of the two materials, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of each pipeline and the liner tube 3, thereby facilitating the operation when replacing the mixing unit 2, and also facilitating the connection of the feed pipes of different materials after replacing the mixing unit 2.

[0024] In addition, an adapter ring 43 is formed on the first pressure cover 4, which matches the third through hole 61 and is inserted into the third through hole 61. The lower end of the adapter tube 7 is formed with a plug-in portion 71 that matches the inner diameter of the adapter ring 43. The lower end of the adapter tube 7 is screwed into the third through hole 61 so that the plug-in portion 71 is inserted into the adapter ring 43. After the plug-in portion 71 is inserted into the adapter ring 43, a sealing surface is formed between the two, thereby strengthening the sealing between the adapter tube 7 and the first pressure cover 4, and also strengthening the sealing between the adapter tube 7 and the inner liner 3, thereby strengthening the sealing when the material is fed into the inner liner 3, preventing the material from leaking during the mixing operation.

[0025] In addition, a sealing step 72 is formed on the outer wall of the lower end of the adapter tube 7, and a sealing ring 73 is provided on the sealing step 72. The upper end of the adapter ring 43 is tightly against the sealing ring 73, and the sealing between the adapter tube 7 and the inner liner pipe 3 is further strengthened by the sealing ring 73.

[0026] In addition, the first pressure cover 4 and the second pressure cover 5 are respectively screwed into the upper and lower ports of the inner liner tube 3, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the first pressure cover 4 and the second pressure cover 5. After the inner liner tube 3 is pulled out from the mixing tube 1, the first pressure cover 4 and the second pressure cover 5 can be removed and the mixing unit 2 can be taken out from the inner liner tube 3, which is convenient for cleaning the mixing unit 2.

[0027] In addition, the mixing tube 1 is provided with a constant temperature interlayer 9 on the outer sleeve, and the constant temperature interlayer 9 is respectively connected with an inlet pipe 91 and an outlet pipe 92 distributed upper and lower. The inlet pipe 91 and the outlet pipe 92 are connected to the external water circulation equipment. By injecting water of a certain temperature into the constant temperature inner interlayer, the material is mixed in the inner lining tube 3 at a suitable temperature, thereby ensuring the mixing effect.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
