[0032] Crushing mechanism 4 includes a crushing unit and a filtering unit;

[0033] The crushing unit is used to crush materials simultaneously during the melt extrusion process;

[0034] The filtration unit is used to filter crushed materials;

[0035] The crushing unit includes a conveyor belt 401, a first gear 402, a second gear 403, and a crushing roller 404;

[0036] The conveyor belt 401 is sleeved on the outer wall of the output end of the drive motor 2, and the conveyor belt 401 is used to synchronously drive the first gear 402 to rotate.

[0037] The first gear 402 is rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the hopper 3, and the first gear 402 is used to drive the second gear 403 to rotate.

[0038] The second gear 403 is rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the hopper 3. The second gear 403 is used to synchronously drive a crushing roller 404 to rotate.

[0039] The filter unit includes a push rod 405, a force-bearing rod 406, a screen 407, a guide rod 408, a positioning rod 409, and a spring 410;

[0040] The stop rod 405 is fixed at the axial position of the second gear 403, and the stop rod 405 is used to intermittently provide the force rod 406 with a downward thrust.

[0041] The force-bearing rod 406 is fixed to the end of the screen 407, and the force-bearing rod 406 is used to synchronously drive 407 to move downward;

[0042] The screen 407 is vertically slidably installed inside the hopper 3. The screen 407 is used to filter the crushed material.

[0043] The guide rod 408 is fixed to the bottom of the force-bearing rod 406 and extends to the inner wall of the hopper 3. The guide rod 408 is used to synchronously drive the positioning rod 409 to move downward.

[0044] The positioning rod 409 is fixed to the bottom end of the guide rod 408 and extends into the interior of the hopper 3. The positioning rod 409 is used to provide guidance for the vertical movement of the guide rod 408.

[0045] The two ends of the spring 410 are respectively engaged with the inner wall of the hopper 3 and the bottom of the guide rod 408. The spring 410 is used to provide a restoring force for the vertical movement of the guide rod 408.

[0046] In this embodiment: When using this device, the material to be melted is placed inside the hopper 3. By starting the drive motor 2, the operation of the drive motor 2 will drive the conveyor belt 401 sleeved on the outer wall of the output end. The rotating conveyor belt 401 synchronously drives the first gear 402 to rotate, causing the second gear 403 meshing with the outer wall of the first gear 402 to rotate synchronously. Then, the second gear 403 and the first gear 402 will synchronously drive the crushing roller 404 connected to the shaft to rotate in opposite directions, thereby crushing the material on the crushing roller 404. The crushed material will fall onto the upper surface of the screen 407, where the screen 407 filters out dust and impurities from the crushed material. During the rotation of the second gear 403, the abutment rod 405 fixed on the outer wall of the second gear 403 will also rotate synchronously until the end of the abutment rod 405 contacts the upper surface of the force rod 406, giving the force rod 406 a downward push. The force, the force rod 406 synchronously drives the screen 407 and guide rod 408 to move downward. The downward moving guide rod 408 will synchronously apply the squeezing force to the spring 410. When the stop rod 405 is no longer in contact with the force rod 406, the screen 407 will also be reset under the action of the spring 410, generating vibration to prevent material from clogging the screen 407. The material will enter the melt extruder 1 through the inclined port of the screen 407. The working drive motor 2 pushes the material into the melt extruder 1 to melt the material. This reduces the number of drive units and lowers the cost. The material is crushed during the melting process, which increases the melting efficiency. It should be noted that the inside of the melt extruder 1 uses heating coils to heat and melt the material. The coils are distributed separately outside the barrel to uniformly heat and plasticize the material inside the barrel. The temperature is automatically adjusted by the instrument on the electrical cabinet.

[0047] Please refer to this carefully. Figures 1-3 The outer walls of the first gear 402 and the second gear 403 mesh with each other. There are two crushing rollers 404. The two crushing rollers 404 are fixedly connected to the first gear 402 and the second gear 403 respectively through shafts. The length of the abutment rod 405 exceeds the radius of the second gear 403. The force-bearing rod 406 is on the rotation trajectory of the abutment rod 405. The outer wall of the screen 407 is inclined. The inner wall of the hopper 3 is formed with a groove for the vertical movement of the guide rod 408. There are two guide rods 408. The two guide rods 408 are respectively connected to the two ends of the screen 407.

[0048] In this embodiment: This structure allows the material that falls on the inclined screen 407 and is crushed to automatically enter the melt extruder 1 under the action of the screen 407. The dust and impurities entering the hopper 3 will pass through the screen 407 to filter the dust and impurities, reducing the entry of dust and impurities and improving product quality.

[0049] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
