DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The utility model will be further described in combination with the drawings and embodiments: ​​​

[0024] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , a high-efficiency plastic extruder screw includes a rod body, the rod body is sequentially provided with a feeding section 1 and a plasticizing section 2 along a feeding direction, and further includes:

[0025] A first mixing section is arranged at the discharging end of the plasticizing section 2, the first mixing section is uniformly provided with adjacent feeding grooves 3 and discharging grooves 4, and a shearing groove 5 is arranged between the feeding grooves 3 and the discharging grooves 4.

[0026] A second mixing section is arranged at the discharging end of the first mixing section, at least two groups of diamond-shaped protrusions 6 are arranged on the circumference of the second mixing section, and the diamond-shaped protrusions 6 arranged in front of and behind each other are staggered.

[0027] A third mixing section is arranged at the discharging end of the second mixing section, the third mixing section is provided with at least two spacer rings 7 arranged in a spaced manner, flow channels 8 are arranged on the circumference of the spacer rings 7, and the flow channels 8 arranged in front of and behind each other are staggered.

[0028] After the molten material plasticized is fed into the first mixing section, the molten material is sheared through the shearing groove 5 and the shunt of the feeding grooves 3, and then flows out from the discharging grooves 4 to mix the molten material and improve the plasticizing quality, and then passes through the second mixing section, the diamond-shaped protrusions 6 crush and refine the small pieces of the molten material that have not been plasticized and shunt the molten material to further improve the uniformity of the mixing, and finally passes through the third mixing section, the molten material is shunted and mixed through the multiple staggered flow channels 8 to effectively improve the uniformity of the molten material and further improve the quality of the product.

[0029] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , the width of the feeding grooves 3, the distance between the circumferentially adjacent diamond-shaped protrusions 6, and the width of the flow channels 8 gradually decrease along the feeding direction. When the molten material passes through the first mixing section, the second mixing section, and the third mixing section, the channel through which the molten material flows gradually decreases, which can better subdivide and mix the molten material and make the mixing of the molten material more uniform.

[0030] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3 , the screw flight of the plasticizing section 2 includes a main screw flight 9 and a secondary screw flight 10, the height of the main screw flight 9 is greater than the height of the secondary screw flight 10, the front and back ends of the secondary screw flight 10 are respectively connected with the main screw flight 9, and the distance between the secondary screw flight 10 and the circumferentially adjacent main screw flight 9 respectively forms a main screw groove 11 and a secondary screw groove 12. After the molten material enters the plasticizing section 2, the molten material that has not been melted stays in the main screw groove 11, and the molten material that has been melted enters the secondary screw groove 12 and is conveyed forward to achieve complete plasticization of the molten material, and the plasticizing effect is good.

[0031] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 4As shown in the figure, the rod body is provided with a cooling channel along the axial direction. Cooling water is fed into the cooling channel to cool the screw rod, preventing the carbonization or decomposition of part of the material caused by the excessively high temperature of the screw rod.

[0032] In the embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figure 4 The cooling channel includes a first channel 13 and a second channel 14, the diameter of the first channel 13 is smaller than that of the second channel 14, the first channel 13 is from the tail end of the rod body to the end of the plasticizing section 2, and the second channel 14 is from the end of the plasticizing section 2 to the end of the third mixing section. The small diameter of the first channel 13 ensures that the mixed material does not lose much heat during the conveying and plasticizing process; the large diameter of the second channel 14 prevents the carbonization of the molten material due to high temperature and facilitates the rapid cooling of the molten material during the extrusion process.

[0033] In the embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figure 1 The feeding end of the feeding section 1 is provided with a spiral groove 15 opposite to the turning direction of the screw flight of the feeding section 1. The reverse spiral groove 15 can prevent the raw material from moving in the opposite direction of the feeding direction, avoiding the pollution or damage to the power device driving the rotation of the screw rod.

[0034] In the embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figure 1 、 Figure 5 The top surface of the screw flight of the feeding section 1 and the plasticizing section 2 is provided with a wear-resistant layer 16. The wear-resistant layer 16 can be a nitriding layer, a ceramic coating or an alloy coating, which can reduce the wear of the screw flight and prolong the service life of the screw rod.

[0035] Obviously, the above embodiments of the utility model are only examples for illustrating the utility model, and are not a limitation on the embodiments of the utility model. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or variations can be made on the basis of the above description. It is not necessary or possible to exhaust all the embodiments. The obvious changes or variations derived from the essential spirit of the utility model still belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
