Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of color masterbatch machine components, specifically to an intelligent adjustment connector for reducing the deviation of material feeding in a color masterbatch machine. Background Technology
[0002] A color masterbatch machine is a device used for feeding new materials, recycled materials, color masterbatch, or additives. It is widely used in plastic processing, injection molding, and other industries. Before the color masterbatch machine is installed on the injection molding machine, it usually needs to be debugged. After the debugging is completed, it can be used on the injection molding machine. In some cases, after the color masterbatch machine is directly installed on the injection molding machine, the overall weight of the color masterbatch machine is reset to zero on the control host. The subsequent weighing quantity is the amount of raw material, thus completing the metering and feeding operation.
[0003] However, regardless of the method described above, during the installation process, since the main body of the color masterbatch machine must be fixedly mounted on the injection molding machine, the feeding part of most color masterbatch machines is always fixed or pressed against the machine. This fixing or pressing operation generates a certain force, which, when applied to the weighing sensor on the color masterbatch machine, causes an error in the weighing data. This error is particularly pronounced when accompanied by external vibrations, hindering the reduction of material feeding deviation. Therefore, we propose an intelligent adjustment connector to reduce material feeding deviation in color masterbatch machines. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an intelligent adjustment connector that reduces the deviation of the material feeding amount of the color masterbatch machine, so as to solve the defects mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] An intelligent debugging connector for reducing the material feeding deviation of a color masterbatch machine includes a color masterbatch machine body and a screw feeder mounted on the color masterbatch machine body. A feed hopper is fixedly installed at the feed end of the screw feeder, and a feed hole is provided inside the feed hopper. A rectangular support plate is installed above the feed hopper. Multiple weighing sensors for weighing are fixedly installed between the rectangular support plate and the top surface of the feed hopper. A feed cylinder is installed above the feed hopper, and a plug-in discharge pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the feed cylinder. An electric discharge valve is fixedly installed on the body of the plug-in discharge pipe. A rectangular frame is fitted on the body of the plug-in discharge pipe and below the electric discharge valve. The plug-in discharge pipe passes through the rectangular support plate and is plugged into the feed hole. The rectangular frame is used to abut against the upper surface of the rectangular support plate. A debugging control host is provided on the side wall of the color masterbatch machine body.
[0007] Preferably, an operation interface is provided on the side wall of the debugging control host, and a communication module is fixedly installed on the top of the debugging control host.
[0008] Preferably, the feed cylinder is provided with a feed chamber, and the top of the feed chamber has a first opening.
[0009] Preferably, the plane containing one side wall of the feed cylinder forms an angle with the first direction, the angle being an acute angle, the opening direction of the angle being towards the insertion discharge pipe, and the angle being 60° to 80°; the first direction is perpendicular to the top surface of the screw feeder.
[0010] Preferably, the distance between the electric unloading valve and the rectangular support plate is greater than 3cm.
[0011] Preferably, the insertable discharge pipe is slidably connected to the feed hopper, and the distance between the outer surface of the insertable discharge pipe and the inner wall of the feed hopper is greater than 0.1 mm.
[0012] Preferably, a top plate is fixedly installed on the top of the feed cylinder, a drive motor is fixedly installed on the top plate, the output shaft of the drive motor extends into the feed chamber, and a vertically arranged long shaft is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the drive motor, with a spiral feeding blade fixedly installed at the bottom end of the long shaft.
[0013] Preferably, the spiral feeding blade is inserted to the bottom of the feeding chamber, and the spiral feeding blade is spiral in shape.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. This utility model uses a weighing sensor to weigh the entire feed cylinder component. The weighed value is marked as zero in the debugging and control host. At this time, the subsequent weighing weight of the weighing sensor is equal to the weight of the raw material in the feed cylinder, thereby improving accuracy. In addition, the insertion of the discharge pipe and the feed hole is connected, and the discharge pipe no longer abuts against the wall of the feed hole. This avoids the influence of friction or contact forces on the accuracy of the weighing sensor during weighing, thereby reducing the deviation of the material feeding amount.
[0016] 2. This utility model, through the setting of a drive motor, can drive the long shaft and spiral feeding blades to rotate, thereby realizing the downward conveying operation of the raw materials in the feed cylinder, making the material in the feed cylinder conveyed and discharged more smoothly downward.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution: an intelligent adjustment connector for reducing the material feeding deviation of a color masterbatch machine, including a color masterbatch machine body 1 and a screw feeder 10 mounted on the color masterbatch machine body 1. A feed hopper 11 is fixedly installed at the feed end of the screw feeder 10, and a feed hole 12 is provided inside the feed hopper 11. The feed hole 12 has a rectangular cross-section. A rectangular support plate 13 is provided above the feed hopper 11. Multiple weighing sensors 14 for weighing are fixedly installed between the rectangular support plate 13 and the top surface of the feed hopper 11. A feed cylinder 3 is provided above the feed hopper 11. A feed cylinder 3 has a fixedly installed insertion discharge pipe 31 at its bottom end. An electric unloading valve 32 is fixedly installed on the body of the insertion discharge pipe 31. A rectangular frame 33 is fitted on the body of the insertion discharge pipe 31 and below the electric unloading valve 32. The insertion discharge pipe 31 passes through the rectangular support plate 13 and is inserted into the feed hole 12. The rectangular frame 33 is used to abut against the upper surface of the rectangular support plate 13, so that the entire weight of the feed cylinder 3 is accumulated on the weighing sensor 14, reducing the interference of external forces and facilitating the weighing sensor 14 to perform accurate weighing operations.
[0026] In this embodiment, a feeding chamber 30 is provided inside the feeding cylinder 3. The top of the feeding chamber 30 has a first opening to communicate with the outside of the feeding cylinder 3, which facilitates the feeding operation.
[0027] Specifically, the plane containing one side of the inner wall of the feed cylinder 3 forms an angle with the first direction, the angle being acute, and the opening of the angle faces the insertion discharge pipe 31, with an angle of 60° to 80°; the first direction is perpendicular to the top surface of the screw feeder 10, and in this embodiment, the first direction is vertical with an angle of 65 degrees; that is, there is a slope between the first opening and the insertion discharge pipe 31, so that the material can enter the screw feeder 10 more smoothly.
[0028] Furthermore, the electric unloading valve 32 is located above the rectangular support plate 13, and the distance between the electric unloading valve 32 and the rectangular support plate 13 is greater than 3cm. The insertion discharge pipe 31 is slidably connected to the feed hopper 11, and the distance between the outer surface of the insertion discharge pipe 31 and the inner wall of the feed hopper 11 is greater than 0.1mm. This prevents the electric unloading valve 32 from pressing against the rectangular support plate 13, and also prevents the insertion discharge pipe 31 from pressing against the feed hopper 11, thus avoiding mutual friction or mutual force that could affect the accuracy of weighing.
[0029] In addition, a top plate 34 is fixedly installed on the top of the feed cylinder 3, and a drive motor 4 is fixedly installed on the top plate 34. The output shaft of the drive motor 4 extends into the feed chamber 30. A vertically arranged long shaft 40 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the drive motor 4. A spiral feeding blade 41 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the long shaft 40. The spiral feeding blade 41 is inserted into the bottom of the feed chamber 30. The spiral feeding blade 41 is spiral in shape. When feeding, the drive motor 4 drives the long shaft 40 and the spiral feeding blade 41 to rotate, thereby stirring the material in the feed chamber 30, which facilitates the downward conveying of the material and makes the material enter the screw feeder 10 more smoothly.
[0030] It is worth noting that a debugging control host 2 is also installed on the side wall of the main body 1 of the color masterbatch machine. An operation interface 20 is installed on the side wall of the debugging control host 2. A communication module 21 is fixedly installed on the top of the debugging control host 2. The weighing sensor 14 is used to monitor the change of the material feeding amount in the feed cylinder 3 in real time and transmit the data to the debugging control host 2. The debugging control host 2 calculates the feeding deviation through algorithm analysis based on the received data and automatically adjusts the feeding amount of the electric unloading valve 32 to reduce the deviation. The communication module 21 is used to transmit the data and information during the debugging process to external devices, such as computers or mobile APPs, so as to facilitate users to monitor and debug in real time.
[0031] Furthermore, the weighing sensor 14 can be a high-precision weighing sensor to improve the accuracy of the monitoring data. The debugging control host 2 can be implemented using an embedded system or a microcontroller, which has the advantages of small size, low power consumption, and high reliability. The communication module can be a wireless communication method, such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, to realize wireless data transmission.
[0032] It is worth noting that after the feeding cylinder 3 is assembled, no raw materials are added to the feeding cylinder 3. The overall weight of the feeding cylinder 3 will be weighed by the weighing sensor 14. At this time, the host control 2 will count the weight as zero. After the raw materials are added, the weight weighed by the weighing sensor 14 will be the weight of the raw materials, thus achieving accurate weighing operation and reducing errors.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the debugging control host 2, operation interface 20, communication module 21 and weighing sensor 14 involved in this utility model are all general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structure and principle can be known to those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods. In the idle space of this device, all the above-mentioned electrical components, which refer to power elements, electrical components and the matching controller and power supply, are connected by wires. The specific connection method should refer to the working principle in this utility model. The electrical connection between each electrical component is completed in the order of operation. The detailed connection method is a technology known in the art.
[0034] In this embodiment, the weighing sensor 14 is responsible for collecting the weight data of the material in the feed cylinder 3 in real time. The weighing sensor 14 has high sensitivity and accuracy and can capture small changes in the weight of the material. The communication module 21 is used to transmit the weight data once the weighing sensor 14 has collected it. The debugging control host 2 is the core of the system. The debugging control host 2 receives the weight data from the communication module 21 and processes and analyzes it. This processing may include data verification, filtering, calculation, etc., to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data. In addition, the debugging control host 2 also includes a debugging function for adjusting system parameters, so that users can optimize the system according to actual needs; the electric unloading valve 32 is responsible for controlling the discharge of materials according to the instructions of the debugging control host 2. If the weight data reaches the preset threshold or meets specific conditions, the electric unloading valve 32 will open or close to achieve precise material control; the operation interface 20 is used to display the processed information to the user. The operation interface 20 can be a display screen or a touch screen to display information such as current weight, historical data, and system status. Users can also input instructions or adjust parameters through the operation interface 20 to monitor and control the system in real time and achieve the effect of intelligent debugging.
[0035] In use, the intelligent debugging connector for reducing the material feeding deviation of the color masterbatch machine is pre-fixed on the external injection molding machine. Then, the insert discharge pipe 31 is passed through the rectangular support plate 13 and inserted into the feed hole 12. The rectangular frame 33 is then fixed on the rectangular support plate 13 with fastening bolts to complete the fixing operation. At this time, the weight on the feed cylinder 3 is all accumulated on the weighing sensor 14, and this weight is counted as zero in the debugging control host 2. After adding raw materials into the feed cylinder 3, the weighing value of the weighing sensor 14 is the weight of the raw materials in the feed cylinder 3. In addition, when the electric unloading valve 32 is opened for unloading, the drive motor 4 is connected to the external power supply and made to work. When the drive motor 4 works, the output shaft on it rotates, which drives the long shaft 40 to rotate. The long shaft 40 rotates, which drives the spiral feeding blade 41 to rotate, thereby realizing the downward conveying of the material in the feed cylinder 3.
