Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of adhesive technology, specifically, it relates to a defoaming device for acrylic structural adhesive. Background Technology

[0002] Acrylic structural adhesives are widely used in industry and daily life. Stirring is a crucial step in the production process; however, improper stirring or excessively fast stirring speed can easily trap air into the adhesive, forming bubbles. The high viscosity of acrylic structural adhesives makes it difficult to eliminate these bubbles. At high viscosity, bubbles are trapped within the adhesive, making it difficult for them to rise to the surface and burst. The formation of bubbles affects the uniformity of the adhesive layer, reducing its bond strength and causing detachment or separation at the bonded surfaces, thus impacting the overall performance of the adhesive. Furthermore, bubbles leave marks after drying or curing, affecting the product's aesthetics. In long-term use, bubbles in acrylic structural adhesives can affect their weather resistance, corrosion resistance, and high-temperature resistance. After curing, bubbles leave micropores that can easily allow moisture, gas, or other harmful substances to penetrate, thus affecting the long-term stability and durability of the adhesive.

[0003] Patent CN212789882U discloses a defoaming stirring device, which uses a driving component to drive a rotating shaft and spiral blades to rotate synchronously in a storage tank. This causes the potting compound to rise and then fall in the tank, ensuring that the rotating shaft and spiral blades can stir and defoam the potting compound under the drive of the driving component. The potting compound rises under the conveying action of the spiral blades and then falls away from the edge of the spiral blades. In this patent, the glue falls like a waterfall after falling away from the edge of the spiral blades. Under the action of force, the falling glue will form new bubbles. Moreover, the defoaming effect is not good because it is only defoamed by rising and falling the glue in the tank.

[0004] In the aforementioned patent's technical solution, new bubbles are generated under the action of force after the spiral blades descend, leading to problems such as poor defoaming effect. Utility Model Content

[0024] One end of a spring 9 is connected to the inner side wall and bottom of the outer stirring cylinder 6, and the other end of the spring 9 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall and bottom of the inner stirring cylinder 8. The inner wall of the outer stirring cylinder 6 and the outer wall of the inner stirring cylinder 8 form a cavity, so that the inner stirring cylinder 8 vibrates in the cavity under the force of the spring 9.

[0025] By rotating the knob 201, the threaded rod rotates in the thread of the sleeve 203, disengaging from the surface of the fixed shaft 202, causing the sleeve 203 to move up and down on the fixed shaft 202. Once it reaches the designated position, tighten the knob 201 to make the threaded rod press tightly against the surface of the fixed shaft 202, thereby fixing the sleeve 203 in the designated position.

[0026] One end of the fixing rod 3 is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer side of the sleeve 203, and the other end of the fixing rod 3 is fixedly connected to the side of the motor 4; the motor 4 is set perpendicular to the fixing rod 3, and the output end of the motor 4 is connected to the stirring shaft 5. The stirring shaft 5 rotatably passes through the inner cavity of the stirring inner cylinder 8 from the top of the stirring inner cylinder 8.

[0027] Please see Figure 3 As shown, a fixing ring 501 is fixedly provided on the top of the stirring shaft 5, and one end of a connecting rod 502 is fixedly installed on the fixing ring 501. In this embodiment, two connecting rods 502 are provided, and the two connecting rods 502 are arranged opposite to each other. The connecting rods 502 are arranged at an angle. The other ends of the two connecting rods 502 are fixedly connected to scrapers 503. The scrapers 503 are arranged longitudinally, and the side of the two scrapers 503 near the stirring inner cylinder 8 is fitted against the inner wall of the stirring inner cylinder 8.

[0028] Two scrapers 503 are fixedly connected to a grid 504 on their opposite sides. The grid 504 has a rectangular structure and is set perpendicular to the scrapers 503. In this embodiment, there are six grids 504, which are staggered vertically on the two scrapers 503.

[0029] The bottom of the stirring shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the stirring plate 10. The upper blade 1002 and the lower blade 1001 are fixedly installed around the stirring plate 10. The upper blade 1002 and the lower blade 1001 are staggered. The upper blade 1002 and the lower blade 1001 are both L-shaped, and there is a distance of half a blade between adjacent upper blades 1002 and lower blades 1001.

[0030] The motor 4 drives the stirring shaft 5 to rotate, the stirring shaft 5 drives the stirring plate 10 to rotate, the stirring plate 10 drives the upper blade 1002 and the lower blade 1001 to rotate, and at the same time the stirring shaft 5 drives the scraper 503 to rotate, and the scraper 503 drives the grid 504 to rotate.

[0031] By staggering the upper blade 1002 and the lower blade 1001, the mixing efficiency is improved, and the structural adhesive is mixed more evenly. At the same time, the scraper 503 can clean the adhesive in the mixing cylinder 8 in a timely manner, so that the structural adhesive is mixed more thoroughly.

[0032] Under the force of stirring, the spring 9 is driven, causing the inner stirring cylinder 8 to shake inside the outer stirring cylinder 6, which in turn vibrates the structural adhesive in the inner stirring cylinder 8, thereby eliminating air bubbles in the structural adhesive. At the same time as stirring, the grid 504 also rotates. The grid 504 can not only make the structural adhesive evenly mixed, but also further eliminate air bubbles in the structural adhesive. Furthermore, for better defoaming effect, defoaming needles can be set in the grid 504 to puncture the air bubbles in the structural adhesive while stirring, thus achieving the defoaming effect.

[0033] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the support plate 1 is provided with an output pipe 7, one end of which passes through the support plate 1, the bottom of the outer stirring cylinder 6, and the bottom of the inner stirring cylinder 8; furthermore, a control valve can be installed on the output pipe 7 to control the opening and closing of the output pipe 7.

[0034] To facilitate understanding of the above technical solutions of this utility model, the working principle or operation method of this utility model in actual process will be described in detail below: When using this utility model, firstly, by adjusting the knob 201, the sleeve 203 moves up and down on the fixed shaft 202, and after the position of the mixing plate 10 reaches the bottom of the structural adhesive, the knob 201 is tightened, so that the threaded rod tightly abuts against the fixed shaft 202, thereby fixing the sleeve 203.

[0035] The motor 4 drives the stirring shaft 5 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring disc 10 to rotate. The stirring disc 10 then drives the upper blade 1002 and the lower blade 1001 to rotate. Simultaneously, the stirring shaft 5 drives the scraper 503 to rotate, which in turn drives the grid 504 to rotate. While stirring, the grid 504 defoams and makes the structural adhesive more evenly mixed. Under the force of stirring, the spring 9 causes the inner stirring cylinder 8 to sway inside the outer stirring cylinder 6, achieving a vibration effect and further eliminating air bubbles in the structural adhesive. After thorough mixing, the control valve is opened, and the well-mixed and defoamed structural adhesive flows out from the output pipe 7.
