Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of screw extruder technology, and in particular to a preheating mechanism for a rubber extruder. Background Technology
[0002] A screw extruder is an automatic feeding device, which is divided into two types: cold-feed screw extruders and hot-feed screw extruders. Both are used to extrude rubber semi-finished products and finished products.
[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent (application number "202223013706.0") disclosing "a screw extruder feeding preheating mechanism." This preheating mechanism includes a feeding hopper, which comprises a preheating section and a mixing section. A conical cylinder is rotatably arranged within the preheating section, forming a feeding channel between the conical cylinder and the preheating section. Spiral fins are provided on the conical cylinder, and a heating tube is installed on the inner wall of the feeding hopper. When the conical cylinder rotates, it feeds the material entering the preheating section into the feeding channel for heating and then transports it to the mixing section. However, this preheating mechanism does not recover and utilize the heat generated during the operation of the screw extruder; it only preheats the material through the heating tube, resulting in low practicality. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a preheating mechanism for a rubber extruder, which solves the problem of the preheating mechanism proposed in the prior art not recovering and utilizing the heat generated during the operation of the screw extruder, and only preheating the material through the heating tube, resulting in low practicality.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A preheating mechanism for a rubber extruder includes a preheating mechanism mounted on a screw extruder. The preheating mechanism includes an installation cylinder with an arc-shaped heat exchange plate extending through and fixed to its bottom inner wall, a "V"-shaped guide block, and a conveying pipe fixed to one inner wall of the installation cylinder. A conveying assembly is provided inside the installation cylinder. The conveying assembly includes a conveying motor, an installation shaft connected to the outer wall of one end of the conveying motor's output shaft via a coupling, and helical blades fixed to the outer wall of the installation shaft. A heat exchange mechanism is provided on the screw extruder. The heat exchange mechanism includes components fixed to the screw extruder. The screw extruder has an insulation frame on the outer wall, two fans that are bolted to one side of the outer wall of the insulation frame, a mounting plate fixed to the lower inner wall of one side of the insulation frame, several ceramic heating rods that are bolted to the top outer wall of the mounting plate, a heat-conducting plate fixed to the bottom inner wall of the insulation frame, and several heat sinks fixed to the top outer wall of the heat-conducting plate. The screw extruder is equipped with a feeding mechanism at the feed end. The feeding mechanism includes a feed hopper connected to the top outer wall of the screw extruder via a flange and two circulation pipes that are fixed to the lower inner wall of the guide block on both sides of the mounting cylinder.
[0007] Preferably, the mounting cylinder is fixed on the top outer wall of the screw extruder, and the guide block is fixed on the middle inner wall of the mounting cylinder.
[0008] Preferably, a mounting bracket is fixed on one outer wall of the mounting cylinder, and the conveying motor is connected to the outer wall of the mounting bracket by bolts. A fixing block is fixed on the inner wall of one end of the conveying pipe, and one end of the mounting shaft passes through and is connected to the outer wall of the fixing block by a bearing.
[0009] The above scheme uses an installation cylinder and a guide block to form a storage space with an open top. Then, the output shaft of the conveyor motor drives the installation shaft and the spiral blades to rotate, and the spiral blades convey the material in the installation cylinder.
[0010] Preferably, the top of the heat insulation frame is fixed to the outer wall of the bottom of the conveying pipe, and the tops of several ceramic heating rods are respectively connected to the inner wall of the top of the heat insulation frame by bolts. An air conveying frame is fixed on one inner wall of the heat insulation frame, and one end of the air conveying frame is fixed to one inner wall of the mounting cylinder.
[0011] Preferably, the feed hopper is bolted to the top outer wall of the feed end of the screw extruder, and one end of the conveying pipe is fixed to the upper inner wall of one side of the feed hopper, while one end of each of the two circulation pipes is fixed to the lower inner wall of both sides of the feed hopper.
[0012] The above scheme uses a fan to transport the heat generated by the ceramic heating rod during operation to the space below the guide block inside the mounting cylinder. This heat preheats the material on the inner wall of the bottom of the guide block. After the screw extruder has been running for a period of time, the heat exchange plate and heat conduction plate exchange heat with the screw extruder. The fan transports the heat from the heat sink, mixed with the heat from the ceramic heating rod, into the mounting cylinder, where the material is preheated. At the same time, some of the heat in the insulation frame rises and exchanges heat with the conveying pipe, preheating the material in the conveying pipe again. Some of the heat in the mounting cylinder enters the feed hopper through the circulation pipe, preheating the material in the feed hopper again.
[0013] Preferably, a sealing cover is bolted to the top outer wall of the feed hopper, and an exhaust pipe is fixed to the bottom outer wall of the sealing cover. A pressure relief valve is clamped to the outer wall of one end of the exhaust pipe.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] The blower transports the heat generated by the ceramic heating rod during operation to the space below the guide block inside the mounting cylinder, preheating the material on the inner wall of the bottom of the guide block. After the screw extruder has been running for a period of time, the heat exchange plate and heat conduction plate exchange heat with the screw extruder. The blower transports the heat from the heat sink, mixed with the heat from the ceramic heating rod, into the mounting cylinder, preheating the material inside. Simultaneously, some heat from the insulation frame rises and exchanges heat with the conveying pipe, further preheating the material in the conveying pipe. Some heat from the mounting cylinder enters the feed hopper through the circulation pipe, further preheating the material in the feed hopper. This process recovers the heat generated by the screw extruder during operation and preheats the material, improving its practicality. Attached Figure Description
