[0021] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0022] Example 1
[0023] This embodiment provides an automatic material cutting mechanism at the discharge port of a twin-screw extruder, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, the cutting mechanism includes a twin-screw extruder body 1, a discharge rack body 2 fixedly installed on the output end of the twin-screw extruder body 1, and a cutting assembly 3 fixedly installed on the discharge rack body 2.
[0024] The cutting assembly 3 includes two symmetrically arranged columns 31 fixedly installed on the discharge rack body 2. The outer walls of the two columns 31 are horizontally arranged with the outer walls of the discharge rack body 2. A connecting frame 32 is fixedly installed on the two columns 31. A cylinder 33 is fixedly installed on the connecting frame 32. A blade 34 is fixedly installed on the output end of the cylinder 33. The inner wall of the blade 34 is fitted with the outer wall of the column 31.
[0025] When in use, start the cylinder 33. The cylinder 33 drives the blade 34 to slide on the column 31 through the output end. When the blade 34 cuts down, it fits against the outer wall of the discharge rack body 2. By misaligning, it cuts several plastic strips that are extruded on the discharge rack body 2 at the same time. Compared with manual cutting, it is more efficient, the cutting is more uniform and stable, and it saves time and effort.
[0026] Specifically, the outer side wall of the cylinder 33 is fixedly provided with a clamping piece 311 welded with the connecting frame 32, the outer side wall of the blade 34 is fixedly provided with a connecting block 35, the output end of the cylinder 33 is inserted into the connecting block 35, and nuts are screwed on the output end of the cylinder 33 at both ends of the connecting block 35. In use, the cylinder 33 is fixedly connected with the connecting frame 32 through the clamping piece 311, then one nut is screwed on the output end of the cylinder 33, then the output end of the cylinder 33 is inserted into the connecting block 35 until it abuts against the nut, and then the other nut is screwed on the output end of the cylinder 33 to abut against the other end of the connecting block 35, so that the blade 34 is quickly fixed on the output end of the cylinder 33, facilitating disassembly, replacement and maintenance.
[0027] More specifically, the outer side wall of the column 31 is provided with a sliding groove 36, the sliding groove 36 is fixedly provided with a sliding rod 37, the sliding rod 37 is slidingly provided with a sliding block 38 matched with the sliding groove 36, and the outer side wall of the sliding block 38 is fixedly connected with the blade 34 through a screw. In use, when the blade 34 moves on the column 31, the sliding block 38 slides on the sliding rod 37, and the sliding groove 36 limits the sliding block 38, so as to ensure the stability of both ends of the blade 34 and prevent the blade 34 from shaking during cutting, thereby improving the cutting quality.
[0028] Further, the outer side wall of the column 31 away from the connecting frame 32 is fixedly provided with an abutting plate 39, and the abutting plate 39 is fixedly provided with a pressure sensor module 310 electrically connected with the control end of the double-screw extruder body 1. In use, after the output end of the cylinder 33 drives the blade 34 to cut the plastic strip and then moves down by a small distance, the pressure sensor module 310 on the abutting plate 39 is touched, the control end of the double-screw extruder body 1 receives the signal to stop feeding, so as to avoid the plastic strip from continuing to be extruded and accumulated between the inner side wall of the blade 34 and the discharge frame body 2, thereby ensuring the discharge quality, and when the blade 34 retreats, the feeding is continued, which is stable and reliable and avoids material jamming.
[0029] Embodiment 2
[0030] Different from embodiment 1, in the process of continuously cutting and extruding the plastic pipe, a part of the plastic mucilage that is not completely cooled may be attached to the blade 34, which affects the sharpness of the cutting after cooling. Therefore, the cutting mechanism further comprises a scraper 4 fixedly installed between the two columns 31, the scraper 4 is arranged on the column 31 close to the connecting frame 32, and the outer side wall of the scraper 4 is in abutting arrangement with the inner side wall of the blade 34. In use, when the cylinder 33 retracts the blade 34 through the output end, the plastic mucilage attached to the blade edge of the blade 34 is scraped off from the inside by the scraper 4, so as to ensure that the blade edge of the inner side wall of the blade 34 is not completely covered, thereby ensuring that the blade 34 has stable sharpness during cutting and ensuring stable cutting.
[0031] The above merely provides the preferred embodiments of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art, according to the technical solution and concept of the present application, can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
