Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of molding machine technology, and in particular to a rapid molding machine for cat litter. Background Technology
[0002] A rapid prototyping molding machine for cat litter is a device specifically designed to compress cat litter materials into specific shapes and sizes, typically to manufacture cat litter products with specific structural or functional properties. This machine can significantly improve production efficiency and ensure that the produced cat litter blocks or granules have consistent quality and specifications. The main function of this machine is to compress loose cat litter raw materials (such as bentonite, wood chips, tofu litter, etc.) into fixed-shape cat litter clumps or granules under high pressure. This not only facilitates packaging and transportation but also provides better absorbency and clumping properties. By precisely controlling pressure, temperature, and other parameters, the molding molding machine helps manufacturers produce high-quality, uniform products, thereby enhancing the user experience.
[0003] When producing columnar cat litter, the length of the columnar cat litter granules is usually controlled by changing the blades with different gaps. The larger the gap between the blades, the longer the granules are. However, changing the blades with different gaps requires purchasing multiple types of blades in advance, which is costly and takes up extra storage space. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a rapid prototyping molding machine for cat litter, so as to solve the problem in related technologies that it is necessary to purchase multiple types of cutting tools in advance to change cutting tools with different gaps.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, according to one aspect of the present invention, a rapid prototyping molding machine for cat litter is provided, comprising: a compression section for storing cat litter raw materials and compressing the raw materials into a columnar shape;
[0006] The cutting section is located below the compression section. The cutting section includes a cutting tool section and a power source. The power source drives the cutting tool section to rotate. The cutting tool section is used to cut columnar cat litter. The cutting tool section includes several first cutting tool groups, several second cutting tool groups, and several third cutting tools. The first cutting tool group includes a first cutting tool and a first groove. The second cutting tool group includes a second cutting tool and a second groove. The first groove is located above the first cutting tool, and the second groove is located above the second cutting tool. When cutting columnar cat litter, the second cutting tool is moved into the first groove, and the third cutting tool is moved into the second groove. The power source is started to drive the cutting tool section to rotate. The first cutting tool cuts the columnar cat litter. When it is necessary to reduce the length of the cat litter after cutting, the second cutting tool is taken out from the first groove and rotated at a certain angle. Then the third cutting tool is taken out from the second groove and rotated at a certain angle. The power source is started again to drive the cutting tool section to rotate. The first cutting tool, the second cutting tool, and the third cutting tool cut the cat litter simultaneously.
[0007] The material storage section, located below the compression section and the cutting section, is used to hold the cut cat litter.
[0008] Furthermore, the compression unit includes a feeding hopper, a compressor, and a pressing plate. The feeding hopper is used to store cat litter raw materials. The compressor is fixedly located below the feeding hopper and is used to compress the raw materials into a columnar shape. The pressing plate is fixedly located below the compressor and has several through discharge holes.
[0009] Furthermore, the cutting section also includes a ring shaft, a rotating shaft, and several protrusions. The cutting tool is located on the outer ring of the ring shaft, the ring shaft is sleeved on the outer ring of the rotating shaft, the protrusions are all located on the outer ring of the ring shaft, and the rotating shaft is fixedly located on the top of the power source.
[0010] Furthermore, the ring shaft portion includes a first ring shaft, a second ring shaft, a third ring shaft, and a ring cover. The first ring shaft is fixedly disposed on the outer ring of the rotating shaft. The second ring shaft is located above the first ring shaft and rotatably disposed on the outer ring of the rotating shaft. The third ring shaft is located above the second ring shaft and rotatably disposed on the outer ring of the rotating shaft.

[0012] Furthermore, the bottom of the first, second, and third cutting tools are all provided with column holes to accommodate protruding columns.
[0013] Furthermore, the storage section includes a protective shell, a storage tray, and a discharge port. The storage tray and the cutting section are both located inside the protective shell. The storage tray is used to store the cut cat litter, and the discharge port passes through the protective shell and is connected to the storage tray to discharge the cut cat litter from the storage tray.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: When the second cutter is located in the first groove and the third cutter is located in the second groove, only the first cutter cuts the cat litter, resulting in larger finished cat litter particles. When the second cutter is removed from the first groove, rotated at a certain angle, and then fitted onto the protrusion, and the third cutter is removed from the second groove, rotated at a certain angle, and then fitted onto the protrusion, the first, second, and third cutters cut the cat litter simultaneously, resulting in smaller finished cat litter particles. By changing the positions of the first, second, and third cutters, the number of cutters that can cut the cat litter can be determined, thereby obtaining columnar bodies of different lengths. It is not necessary to change cutters with different gaps, which reduces costs and saves storage space. Attached Figure Description
