[0021] The waste plastic recycling extrusion die-casting molding equipment mentioned in this application is referred to in [reference]. Figure 1 , 2 As shown in the diagram, the extruder 100 and hopper 110 are fastened together by bolts. The hopper 110 continuously supplies raw materials to the production process and can also monitor and measure the supply of raw materials in real time, achieving precise control over the material feeding. A screw feeder 120 is installed beside the extruder 100 and above the hopper 110. Because the hopper 110 is located above the extruder 100, the feeding process is inconvenient for workers; therefore, the screw feeder 120 is specifically provided to solve this problem. During operation, the worker pours the production raw materials into the screw feeder 120. The screw feeder 120 then spirals upwards, pouring the raw materials into the hopper 110. The hopper 110 then discharges the material, which enters the extruder 100, completing the feeding process.
[0022] A screen changer 130 is coaxially fixed at the front end of the extruder 100, and is installed at the outlet of the plastic melt. The screen changer 130 is equipped with a filter screen to remove impurities and unmelted particles from the plastic melt. To prevent the filter screen from becoming clogged after prolonged operation and affecting the normal operation of the machine, the screen changer 130 is pushed and pulled by a hydraulic cylinder. Each time a filter screen needs to be replaced, the hydraulic cylinder pulls it out, and then a worker replaces it. After the filter screen is replaced, the hydraulic cylinder pushes it back into the extruder outlet, and the equipment continues to operate.
[0023] An extruder head 140 is coaxially fixed in front of the screen changer 130. The extruder head 140 is mainly used to evenly spread the plastic melt extruded by the extruder 100 to ensure that the thickness of the preform is consistent and to guarantee product quality.
[0024] A special cold-cutting blade for preforms is installed below the extruder head 140. The special cold-cutting blade for preforms is responsible for cutting and slitting the preforms extruded from the extruder head 140, so that each preform has the same mass and ensures product quality.
[0025] A preform transfer mechanism is fixedly installed in front of the extruder 100 and below the extruder head 140 to transfer the preform to the die-casting press 300. The preform transfer mechanism includes a conveyor frame 200, a receiving platform 210, a moving platform 220, a first circulating conveyor belt 211, and a second circulating conveyor belt 221. A weighing tray and a weighing sensor are installed below the receiving platform 210. When the preform reaches a predetermined weight, a signal is sent to control the cold-cutting blade to cut it. The moving platform 220 can move horizontally back and forth on the conveyor frame 200 to receive the preform transferred from the receiving platform.
[0026] Both the first circulating conveyor belt 211 and the second circulating conveyor belt 221 are made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The receiving platform 210 has a pair of rotating rollers and a first servo motor 212 connected to one of the rotating rollers. The first circulating conveyor belt 211 is tensioned on the pair of rotating rollers and driven to rotate by the first servo motor 212. The moving platform 220 also has a pair of rotating rollers and a second servo motor 223. Similarly, the second conveying platform 221 is tensioned on the pair of rotating rollers and driven to rotate by the second servo motor 223, thus causing the first circulating conveyor belt 211 and the second circulating conveyor belt 221 to rotate cyclically, transferring the material blanks falling on the conveyor belts forward.
[0027] After the extruder head extrudes the blank, the receiving platform 210 receives the blank first, and then the blank is slowly transferred forward by the first circulating conveyor belt 211. The moving platform 220 moves backward on the conveyor frame 200 and comes to the bottom of the first circulating conveyor belt 211 so that the blank can fall onto the second circulating conveyor belt 211. Then the moving platform 200 moves forward and the second circulating conveyor belt 211 rotates slowly to transfer the blank to the die-casting press 300 for die-casting.
[0028] The conveyor frame 200 includes a pair of tracks 226 extending back and forth. The moving platform 220 includes a moving frame 224 slidably connected to the pair of tracks 226. The second circulating conveyor belt 221 is mounted on the moving frame 224. The conveyor frame 200 is also provided with a rack parallel to the extension direction of the tracks. The moving frame is provided with a drive motor and a gear meshing with the rack. Under the action of the drive motor, the moving frame can move rapidly back and forth along the tracks.
[0029] A gap 225 is left between the movable frame 224 and the front end of the second circulating conveyor belt 221 so that the blank can fall through the gap 225 and enter the lower mold of the die-casting press.
[0030] The die-casting press 300 has a fixed lower mold 320, an upper mold 310 that can move up and down, and a cylinder that can lift the pallet product in the lower mold. After the blank is transferred to the die-casting press via the moving platform 220, the second circulating conveyor belt 211 rotates and spreads the blank evenly in the mold, and the moving platform 220 exits the die-casting press 300. Then, the die-casting press 300 starts working, the upper mold 310 and the lower mold 320 close, and the blank is die-cast to form the final product.
[0031] The newly formed pallet product 510 is at a very high temperature. In order to remove it from the die-casting press, this application also fixes a pair of cantilever arms 222 at the front of the moving frame 224. After the die-casting is completed, the upper and lower molds of the die-casting press are opened, and the cylinder lifts the pressed pallet product. When the moving platform 220 transports the next blank forward, the cantilever arms 222 at the front of the moving frame 224 are also inserted into the previous product in the die-casting press, and the completed pallet product is removed from the die-casting press 300. Then the moving platform 220 continues to feed the blank to be processed into the die-casting press for processing.
[0032] The die-casting press 300 is equipped with a finished product rack 400 in front of it. The finished products are removed from the cantilever and placed on the finished product rack to prevent the cantilever from being occupied and thus hindering the processing.
[0033] In the overall process of this utility model, the worker pours the raw material into the screw feeder, which is responsible for feeding the raw material into the upper hopper. Then the hopper discharges the material, which enters the extruder and melts into plastic melt. When passing through the screen changer, the impurities in the plastic melt are filtered out by the internal filter screen. Then it enters the extruder head for even spreading to form a preform. The conveyor belts on the receiving platform and the moving platform rotate at a constant speed, and the preform is evenly spread above the receiving platform. After reaching the predetermined weight value, the preform is cut into batches by a cold cutting knife. The first circulating conveyor belt then spreads the preform on the second circulating conveyor belt and sends it into the die-casting press for die-casting processing. At the same time, the cantilever sends the product from the previous cycle to the finished product rack, thus completing the entire cycle process of the equipment.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this application is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this application.
