Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cosmetic technology, specifically to a mixing device for cosmetic raw materials. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of cosmetics, the mixing of cosmetic raw materials is a crucial step that directly affects the quality, stability, and efficacy of the product. It is necessary to ensure the mixing effect of the cosmetic raw material mixing device.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN216321505U discloses a cosmetic raw material mixing device. This device, through the coordinated use of a base plate, chute, slider, mixing chamber, first motor, mixing rod, feed pipe, inlet pipe, second motor, eccentric wheel, connecting rod, and connecting pipe, can ensure uniform mixing and effectively avoid the situation where the quality of cosmetics is compromised due to uneven mixing, as is often the case with general cosmetic raw material mixing devices.

[0004] However, temperature control is required during the mixing process of cosmetic raw materials. For example, oils and waxes need to be heated to 60-80°C to melt completely, emulsifiers require the oil and water phases to mix rapidly at the same temperature of 70-80°C, and colloids and thickeners also promote dissolution at specific temperatures. However, the above-mentioned cosmetic raw material mixing device does not take into account the temperature during mixing and cannot control the mixing temperature of the raw materials, so the mixing effect needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, the present invention provides a raw material mixing device for cosmetics, which solves the problem that the existing mixing devices cannot control the mixing temperature of the raw materials.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A mixing device for cosmetic raw materials is provided, including a mixing tank with a heating component on its outer wall, a stirring shaft rotating inside the mixing tank, the top of the mixing tank being connected to at least one end of two feed pipes, the other end of each feed pipe being connected to a pipe heater for preheating the raw materials, each pipe heater being connected to a feed pump, each feed pump being connected to a raw material tank, and the heating component, each pipe heater, and each feed pump being connected to a host computer.

[0008] In this solution, by installing a heating component on the outer wall of the mixing tank and connecting the feed pipe to a preheated pipe heater, it can be ensured that the raw materials are kept at the required specific temperature before entering the mixing tank and during the mixing process. This helps to improve the dissolution and mixing effect of raw materials such as oils, waxes, emulsifiers, colloids and thickeners, ensuring that the quality of the mixed cosmetics is stable and uniform, avoiding insufficient mixing due to uneven temperature, and improving the quality of cosmetics.

[0009] Furthermore, a jacketed insulation layer is provided on the outer wall of the mixing tank, and the heating element is located within the jacketed insulation layer. The jacketed insulation layer can effectively maintain a stable temperature inside the mixing tank, prevent excessive heat loss, and ensure uniform temperature throughout the mixing process.

[0010] Furthermore, the heating assembly includes a spiral heating pipe disposed on the outer wall of the mixing tank. The spiral heating pipe is arranged spirally downward along the outer wall of the mixing tank, and both ends of the spiral heating pipe are connected to a boiler device for providing hot water or steam. The spiral heating pipe is arranged spirally downward along the outer wall of the mixing tank, which not only makes the heat distribution more uniform, but also facilitates the flow of hot water or steam.

[0011] Furthermore, the heating component is an electric heating element mounted on the outer wall of the mixing tank. This heating element has a spiral structure and is electrically connected to the host computer. The spiral structure of the heating element allows for more uniform heating of the outer wall of the mixing tank, ensuring consistent temperature within the tank. The electrical connection between the heating element and the host computer enables precise temperature control and real-time adjustment.

[0012] Furthermore, each feed pipe is equipped with a flow sensor that is electrically connected to the host computer. The flow sensors on the feed pipes can monitor the flow rate of each raw material in real time, ensuring that each raw material is added in the correct proportion. This helps to precisely control the mixing process, avoiding uneven mixing caused by too much or too little raw material, thereby improving the quality of the final product.

[0013] Furthermore, a first temperature sensor is installed at the connection point between the mixing tank and the feed pipe, and the first temperature sensor is electrically connected to the host computer. Installing the first temperature sensor at the connection point between the mixing tank and the feed pipe allows for real-time monitoring of the temperature of the raw materials entering the tank, ensuring that the raw materials have reached the required preheating temperature before entering the mixing device. This helps avoid uneven mixing due to insufficient temperature, improving mixing efficiency and product quality.

[0014] Furthermore, a second temperature sensor, electrically connected to the host computer, is installed on the inner wall of the mixing tank. This second temperature sensor allows for real-time monitoring of the overall temperature within the tank, ensuring temperature stability and uniformity during mixing. It also facilitates adjustment of the heating element's power, ensuring the raw materials remain within the optimal mixing temperature range and improving mixing efficiency.

[0015] Furthermore, the top of the stirring shaft is connected to a motor fixed on the mixing tank via a coupling, and the stirring shaft is equipped with two first stirring blades and one second stirring blade from top to bottom.

[0016] Furthermore, each first stirring blade includes two centrally symmetrically arranged bent plates. Each bent plate includes a horizontal plate and a downwardly inclined plate, and a turbulence-enhancing plate is fixed to the free end of each bent plate, perpendicular to the inclined plate. The second stirring blade is located near the discharge port at the bottom of the mixing tank and has a V-shaped plate structure. The bent plate design of the first stirring blade promotes the flow and mixing of raw materials, and the turbulence-enhancing plate at the free end further increases the degree of turbulence in the mixing, improving the mixing uniformity. The V-shaped plate structure of the second stirring blade, located near the discharge port, effectively pushes the mixed raw materials away from the discharge port, preventing sedimentation and blockage, and ensuring smooth discharge and good mixing effect.

[0017] Furthermore, the interior of the mixing tank is vertically equipped with multiple reinforcing ribs, each with multiple guide vanes. These reinforcing ribs not only enhance the structural stability of the tank, ensuring the reliability and safety of the mixing device during long-term operation, but the guide vanes also increase the flow path and turbulence of the raw materials within the mixing tank, further improving mixing efficiency and uniformity.

[0018] This utility model discloses a mixing device for cosmetic raw materials, the beneficial effects of which are:

[0019] This invention, by installing a heating component on the outer wall of the mixing tank and connecting the feed pipe to a preheated pipe heater, ensures that the raw materials are maintained at the required specific temperature before entering the mixing tank and during the mixing process. This helps to improve the dissolution and mixing effect of raw materials such as oils, waxes, emulsifiers, colloids and thickeners, ensuring that the quality of the mixed cosmetics is stable and uniform, avoiding insufficient mixing due to uneven temperature, and improving the quality of cosmetics.

However, it should be understood that this utility model is not limited to the scope of the specific embodiments. For those skilled in the art, as long as various changes are within the spirit and scope of this utility model as defined and determined by the appended claims, these changes are obvious. All utility model creations utilizing the concept of this utility model are within the scope of protection.

[0025] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment provides a mixing device for cosmetic raw materials, including a mixing tank 1, a heating component 2, a stirring shaft 3, and a feed pump 6.

[0026] The outer wall of the mixing tank 1 is provided with a jacketed insulation layer, and the heating component 2 is located in the jacketed insulation layer. The jacketed insulation layer can effectively maintain the temperature stability inside the mixing tank 1 and prevent heat loss from being too rapid.

[0027] Heating component 2 is used to ensure that the raw materials are kept at the required specific temperature during the mixing process.

[0028] In this embodiment, the heating component 2 may include a spiral heating pipe disposed on the outer wall of the mixing tank 1. The spiral heating pipe is arranged spirally downward along the outer wall of the mixing tank 1, and both ends of the spiral heating pipe are connected to a boiler device for providing hot water or steam. The spiral heating pipe being arranged spirally downward along the outer wall of the mixing tank 1 not only makes the heat distribution more uniform but also facilitates the flow of hot water or steam. The boiler device is prior art, so its specific working principle and connection relationship will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0029] As another embodiment of the heating component 2, the heating component 2 is an electric heating tube installed on the outer wall of the mixing tank 1. The electric heating tube has a spiral structure and is electrically connected to the host computer. The spiral structure design of the electric heating tube can more evenly heat the outer wall of the mixing tank 1, ensuring the consistency of the temperature inside the tank. The electrical connection between the electric heating tube and the host computer enables precise temperature control and real-time adjustment.

[0030] The top of the mixing tank 1 is connected to at least one end of two feed pipes 4, and the other end of each feed pipe 4 is connected to a pipe heater 5 for preheating the raw materials. Each pipe heater 5 is connected to a feed pump 6, and each feed pump 6 is connected to the raw material tank. The heating component 2, each pipe heater 5 and each feed pump 6 are all connected to the host computer.

[0031] In this embodiment, the pipe heater 5 can be DN25. Since this is existing technology, its specific working principle and connection relationship will not be described in detail here. The host computer in this embodiment can be a PLC industrial control computer or an industrial control computer.

[0032] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The stirring shaft 3 is rotatably installed inside the stirring tank 1. The top of the stirring shaft 3 is connected to the motor 33 fixed on the stirring tank 1 via a coupling. The stirring shaft 3 is provided with two first stirring blades 31 and one second stirring blade 32 from top to bottom.

[0033] Specifically, each first stirring blade 31 includes two centrally symmetrically arranged bent plates 311. Each bent plate 311 includes a horizontal plate and a downwardly inclined plate, and a turbulence-enhancing plate 312 is fixed to the free end of each bent plate 311, perpendicular to the inclined plate. The second stirring blade 32 is located near the discharge port at the bottom of the mixing tank 1, and the second stirring blade 32 has a V-shaped plate structure. The design of the bent plates 311 of the first stirring blade 31 promotes the flow and mixing of raw materials, and the turbulence-enhancing plate 312 at the free end can further increase the degree of turbulence in the mixing and improve the mixing uniformity. The V-shaped plate structure of the second stirring blade 32, located near the discharge port, can effectively push the mixed raw materials away from the discharge port, preventing sedimentation and blockage, and ensuring smooth discharge and mixing effect.

[0034] As a further embodiment, each feed pipe 4 is equipped with a flow sensor 41 that is electrically connected to the host computer. The flow sensor 41 on the feed pipe 4 can monitor the flow rate of each raw material in real time, ensuring that each raw material is added accurately in the correct proportion. This helps to precisely control the mixing process, avoid uneven mixing caused by too much or too little raw material, and thus improve the quality of the final product.

[0035] A first temperature sensor is installed at the connection point between the mixing tank 1 and the feed pipe 4, and the first temperature sensor is electrically connected to the host computer. Installing the first temperature sensor at the connection point between the mixing tank 1 and the feed pipe 4 allows for real-time monitoring of the temperature of the raw materials entering the tank, ensuring that the raw materials have reached the required preheating temperature before entering the mixing device. This helps avoid uneven mixing due to insufficient temperature, improving the mixing effect and product quality.

[0036] A second temperature sensor, electrically connected to a host computer, is installed on the inner wall of the mixing tank 1. This second temperature sensor allows for real-time monitoring of the overall temperature within the tank, ensuring temperature stability and uniformity during mixing. It also facilitates adjustment of the power of the heating element 2, ensuring the raw materials remain within the optimal mixing temperature range and improving mixing efficiency.

[0037] As a further embodiment, refer to Figure 2 The mixing tank 1 has multiple vertically arranged reinforcing ribs 11 inside, and each reinforcing rib 11 is equipped with multiple guide vanes 12. The reinforcing ribs 11 not only enhance the structural stability of the tank and ensure the reliability and safety of the mixing device during long-term operation, but the guide vanes 12 on them can also increase the flow path and turbulence of the raw materials in the mixing tank 1, further improving the mixing efficiency and uniformity.

[0038] In summary, the beneficial effects of this solution are as follows:

[0039] By installing a heating element 2 on the outer wall of the mixing tank 1 and connecting the feed pipe 4 to a preheated pipe heater 5, it can be ensured that the raw materials are kept at the required specific temperature before entering the mixing tank 1 and during the mixing process. This helps to improve the dissolution and mixing effect of raw materials such as oils, waxes, emulsifiers, colloids and thickeners, ensures that the quality of the mixed cosmetics is stable and uniform, avoids insufficient mixing due to uneven temperature, and improves the quality of cosmetics.
