Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plastic processing technology, and in particular to a continuous floating plastic hot washing device. Background Technology
[0002] As the recycling industry raises its requirements for floating plastic sheets, the hot washing time and degree of hot washing of floating plastics in the corresponding cleaning process have increased accordingly. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the plastics with hot washing equipment during the reprocessing of floating plastics.
[0003] In existing technologies, when cleaning floating plastics, the plastics are often placed directly into the cleaning drum and stirred and cleaned by a stirring mechanism. However, since the density of floating plastics is less than that of water, the plastics will float on the water surface during the water-based cleaning process. Therefore, during the hot washing process, the material cannot be completely immersed in the water for thorough cleaning. The problems with this method are: uneven hot washing of plastics; and incomplete hot washing. Utility Model Content

[0023] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the present invention proposes a continuous floating plastic hot washing device, including a box body 1 and multiple washing cylinders 6. The box body 1 has an opening at the top, and the multiple washing cylinders 6 are arranged side by side inside the box body 1. The ends of two washing cylinders 6 located on both sides extend out of the box body 1. The box body 1 has a first through hole for the washing cylinders 6 to extend out. The washing cylinders 6 are sealed to the inner wall of the first through hole. The ends of two washing cylinders 6 located on both sides are provided with a material conveying component. The outer circumference of the washing cylinder 6 is provided with a water inlet, and a screen 12 is provided at the water inlet. Any two adjacent washing cylinders 6 are connected end to end. The washing cylinder 6 is provided with a driving component for driving the plastic. The top of the box body 1 is provided with a sealing component for sealing the box body 1. The bottom of the box body 1 is provided with a water outlet, and a solenoid valve is provided at the water outlet. The top of the box body 1 is provided with a water inlet.
[0024] In this invention, when the device is needed, water is introduced through the water inlet, and the material is fed into the cleaning cylinder 6 via the feeding assembly. Multiple cleaning cylinders 6 are connected end-to-end, and under the action of the drive assembly, the plastic moves within the multiple cleaning cylinders 6 and is discharged from another set of feeding assemblies. Since the cleaning cylinder 6 is located inside the housing 1 and is equipped with a screen 12, hot water from the housing 1 can enter the cleaning cylinder 6 through the screen 12 to clean the moving plastic within it. This device effectively cleans plastic, and during cleaning, the plastic can be automatically loaded and unloaded without affecting the cleaning process. Therefore, the device can continuously clean plastic without stopping the loading and unloading process, effectively improving the efficiency of plastic cleaning.
[0025] In an optional embodiment, the sealing assembly includes a first fixing block 3 and a second fixing block 4. Multiple first fixing blocks 3 are spaced apart and connected to the upper end of the housing 1. Multiple second fixing blocks 4 are connected to the inner wall of the housing 1 and to the upper ends of the multiple first fixing blocks 3 respectively. The second fixing blocks 4 are perpendicular to the first fixing blocks 3. The first fixing blocks 3 and the multiple second fixing blocks 4, together with the inner wall of the housing 1, respectively form installation areas on the upper end of the housing 1. Each installation area is detachably equipped with a cover plate 2. The cover plate 2 has an observation window 5. The upper end of the housing 1 is divided into multiple installation areas by the first fixing blocks 3 and the second fixing blocks 4. Each installation area is covered by the cover plate 2. Therefore, when it is necessary to repair the equipment inside the housing 1, only the cover plate 2 in that area needs to be opened for repair, thus eliminating the need to remove all the coverings from the housing 1. This reduces the workload of the staff in repairing the parts inside the housing 1. Furthermore, the observation window 5 allows for effective observation of the situation inside the housing 1.
[0026] In an optional embodiment, a mounting base 11 is further included. A bearing block is provided on the inner wall of the first fixing block 3. The cover plate 2 rests on the bearing block. The mounting base 11 is connected to the upper end of the first fixing block 3. The cover plate 2 is provided with a mating seat corresponding to the mounting base 11. The mounting base 11 is provided with a first opening. The mating seat is provided with a second opening corresponding to the first opening. A bolt is provided in the first opening. The bolt passes through the first opening and extends into the second opening. The thread of the bolt is provided with a nut. The bolt abuts against the mounting base 11. The nut abuts against the mating seat. The cover plate 2 is placed on the bearing block, and the first opening and the second opening are interconnected. The cover plate 2 and the mounting base 11 can be installed by the nut and the bolt, thereby completing the installation of the cover plate 2 and the first fixing block 3. This completes the installation of the cover plate 2 and the housing 1. Furthermore, the first fixing block 3 and the second fixing block 4 can effectively fix the overall structure of the housing 1, thereby improving the stability of the housing 1.
[0027] In an optional embodiment, a mounting block 7 is further included. The mounting block 7 is provided with a third opening. The mounting block 7 is located inside the housing 1 and connected to its inner wall. The mounting block 7 is located between two connected washing cylinders 6. Each of the two adjacent washing cylinders 6 is provided with a fourth opening that communicates with the third opening. The feeding between the two connected washing cylinders 6 can be effectively completed through the third opening, thereby improving its feeding stability.
[0028] In an optional embodiment, the feeding assembly includes a feeding hopper 8 and a feeding cylinder 13. The end of the washing cylinder 6 extending out of the housing 1 has a fifth opening, and the feeding cylinder 13 is sealed within the fifth opening. The feeding hopper 8 is located at one end of the feeding cylinder 13, and the outer circumferential surface of the feeding cylinder 13 has a sixth opening. The output end of the feeding hopper 8 is sealed to the sixth opening. A first auger 9 is vertically arranged inside the feeding cylinder 13. The feeding hopper 8 can effectively complete the feeding of plastic. The plastic enters the feeding cylinder 13 through the feeding hopper 8 and moves into the washing cylinder 6 under the action of the first auger 9. When discharge is required, the feeding end of the feeding hopper 8 is set downward, and the direction of the first auger 9 during discharge moves the plastic upward to enter the feeding hopper 8, thus completing the discharge.
[0029] In an optional embodiment, the drive assembly includes a second auger 14. The second auger 14 is horizontally arranged in each of the cleaning cylinders 6. The transport directions of the second auger 14 in any two adjacent cleaning cylinders 6 are opposite. By rotating the second auger 14 in the cleaning cylinder 6, the plastic in the box 1 can be effectively transported. Furthermore, the opposite transport directions of the second auger 14 in any two adjacent cleaning cylinders 6 can enable the plastic to move within the cleaning cylinders 6 that are connected end to end.
[0030] In an optional embodiment, a workbench 10 is also included, which is connected to one end of the housing 1 and spaced apart from the plurality of cleaning cylinders 6. The workbench 10 provides convenience for workers when inspecting and maintaining the equipment inside the housing 1.
[0031] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of this utility model and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be included within its protection scope. Furthermore, the appended claims are intended to cover all variations and modifications falling within the scope and boundaries of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
