Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of waste recycling devices for plastic film production, and specifically to a water circulation system for cooling waste recycling of plastic film. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of plastic film, in addition to the possibility of substandard plastic film rolls due to the operating conditions of equipment such as winding machines, waste plastic film rolls are also generally generated before and after machine start-up and shutdown. In order to save raw material costs, these substandard and waste plastic film rolls are often recycled into plastic granules through recycling equipment and then processed together with other raw materials. In the recycling process, the plastic filaments extruded by the extruder need to be cooled and dried before being sent to the processing machine to be cut into plastic granules. However, the cooling equipment currently used with the extruder is expensive and requires high precision. This is because conventional extrusion finishing machines need to control the precision of the molding structure, but the processing precision does not need to be considered in the current recycling stage. Therefore, there is a need to design a low-cost circulating water cooling system that can meet the requirements of the plastic film recycling process. Utility Model Content

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments: Example
[0019] Reference Figure 1This embodiment provides a water circulation system for cooling and recycling plastic film waste; it includes a water tank 1 arranged opposite to the extruder die head; a collection hopper 2 is installed at the other end near the water tank 1; several limiting shafts 3 are installed on both the water tank 1 and the collection hopper 2, and an inclined plate 4 is connected between the opposite ends of the water tank 1 and the collection hopper 2; a guide box 5 with an open lower end is also provided above the collection hopper 2; the inner cavity of the guide box 5 is connected to a fan 6 through an air duct provided on the side wall; a return water pipe 7 is also provided at the lower part of the collection hopper 2; the other end of the return water pipe 7 is connected to the location of the water tank 1.
[0020] It also includes an outdoor water storage tank 8 for collecting natural precipitation; the outdoor water storage tank 8 can supply water to the water tank 1 through a water pipe with a valve.
[0021] Water tank 1 is a strip-shaped box-like structure placed flat on the ground, with one end located on the underside of the extruder mold head.
[0022] Several steps 9 are provided in the inner cavity of the water tank 1; the height of the top surface of the step 9 gradually decreases from the side of the water tank 1 near the extruder mold head to the other side; a limiting shaft is provided above each step 9 in the water tank 1; and rollers are rotatably installed on the limiting shafts 3 in the water tank 1.
[0023] Two pairs of L-plates are provided at the edge of the top opening of the collecting hopper 2; the two ends of the limiting shaft 3 are detachably mounted on the L-plates; the limiting shaft 3 on the collecting hopper 2 consists of two fixed shafts, and several annular grooves are opened on the limiting shaft 3; the width of these annular grooves is consistent with the diameter of the plastic wire processed by the extruder.
[0024] A support rod 10 is installed below the collection hopper 2; the installation height of the collection hopper 2 is greater than the height of the water tank 1; the inclined plate 4 is a straight plate structure with a U-shaped cross-section.
[0025] Both ends of the flow guide box 5 are positioned directly opposite the inner cavity of the collection hopper 2.
[0026] One end of the return water pipe 7 is connected to the water tank 1 near the extruder die head. The return water pipe is placed at the end of the water tank to utilize the potential energy of the flowing water to move the water in the tank from front to back, thereby improving the cooling effect.
[0027] In this embodiment, when the utility model device works with an extruder, the plastic thread processed from the die head of the extruder will bypass the roller on the limiting shaft in the water tank, allowing the plastic thread to be fully immersed in the water tank for cooling. Afterward, the plastic thread will enter the collection hopper through the inclined plate. During this process, some of the water carried by the plastic thread will fall down the inclined plate into the water tank. At the collection hopper, the plastic thread will be blown down into the collection hopper by the air force provided by the fan through the upper guide box, and the remaining water on the plastic thread will be blown back into the collection hopper and re-enter the end of the water tank through the return water pipe below the collection hopper. In addition, when the water in the water tank is insufficient, cooling water can be supplied to the water tank through an outdoor water storage tank.
