Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of plastic pellet production, specifically to a water-cooled tank for plastic pellets equipped with a side-flushing suspension mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Water-cooled tanks for plastic granules are an important component of plastic granulation production lines, primarily used to cool the high-temperature plastic strips extruded from the extruder. The cooling effect of the water-cooled tank allows the plastic strips to cool down and solidify rapidly, facilitating subsequent cutting and packaging.
[0003] Existing water-cooled tanks typically require immersing plastic granules into the coolant during operation, using a lifting mechanism to place the granules into the coolant. This method cannot effectively guarantee that the plastic granules are adequately cooled.
[0004] To address the aforementioned deficiencies, a water-cooled tank for plastic granule production can be described in the prior art (Chinese patent application number CN202322055349.2, publication date 2024-02-23). This cooling tank utilizes a sliding plate, a moving connecting rod, a connecting cylinder, and a plastic cooling box in cooperation. A hydraulic push rod can be used to push the sliding plate and the connecting cylinder up and down, thereby moving the plastic cooling box into the water-cooled tank for cooling. After cooling, the plastic cooling box can be raised, avoiding the need for workers to manually retrieve the product after cooling.
[0005] Although the above-mentioned device can solve the existing defects, it still has certain shortcomings in use. It uses the lifting mechanism and the holes to cool the plastic particles, but the cooling process is only achieved by setting the holes, and some plastic particles in the middle will still not be cooled sufficiently.
[0006] Therefore, we proposed that a plastic particle water cooling tank with a side-flushing suspension mechanism can effectively solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a plastic particle water cooling tank with a side-flushing suspension mechanism, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the current water cooling tanks on the market cool plastic particles through lifting mechanisms and holes, but the cooling treatment is achieved solely through the setting of holes, and there is still a problem that the plastic particles in the middle cannot be fully cooled.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a plastic particle water cooling tank with a side-flushing suspension mechanism, including a water inlet located at the upper front side of the tank body, and a drain outlet located at the lower rear side of the tank body. The interior of the tank body is inclined, and the drain outlet is located near the lowest position inside the tank body.
[0009] It also includes: two sets of bearing plates are provided on the top of the tank, and a dual-axis motor is fixed at the bottom of the tank. The output end of the dual-axis motor is connected to an up-and-down shaking mechanism, which enables the bearing plates to move up and down inside the tank.
[0010] Cooling tanks are embedded in the inner sides of both the left and right ends of the support plate. A cover plate is rotatably installed on the top of the cooling tank. A mesh plate is installed on the bottom of the cooling tank. Pump bodies are fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the top of the support plate. A water inlet pipe is connected to the bottom of the pump body. The bottom of the water inlet pipe is submerged in the coolant in the tank. A delivery pipe is connected to the output end of the pump body. The outer end of the delivery pipe is connected to a water spray nozzle. The outer side of the water spray nozzle is located inside the cooling tank.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the up-and-down shaking mechanism includes a sector gear rod provided at the end of a dual-axis motor. The outer side of the sector gear rod is provided on the inner side of the connecting plate. Several sets of tooth blocks are fixed at equal intervals on the inner side of the connecting plate. The top position of the connecting plate is fixed to the bottom of the bearing plate.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this application, a guide mechanism is provided at the bottom of the support plate. The guide mechanism enables the support plate to slide stably on the top of the tank. The connecting plate forms a sliding structure with the inside of the tank through the guide mechanism.
[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the guiding mechanism includes a fixing rod fixed at the bottom corner of the bearing plate, and a piston block fixed at the bottom of the fixing rod. The bottom outer side of the piston block slides against the inner side of the receiving tube, and one side of the receiving tube is fixed to the outer surface of the groove.
[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this application, an air outlet is fixed at the bottom of the receiving tube, and the outer side of the air outlet extends into the interior of the tank.
[0015] As a preferred technical solution of this application, a one-way air supply valve is also provided at the outer end of the air outlet, and a one-way air inlet valve is provided on one side of the bottom of the receiving tube.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The plastic particle water cooling tank with a side-flushing suspension mechanism is equipped with an up-and-down shaking mechanism, which enables the support plate and the cooling box to shake up and down inside the tank, so as to fully cool the plastic particles inside the cooling box. In addition, the guide mechanism ripples the coolant inside the tank, thereby ensuring that the coolant is mixed evenly and ensuring the cooling efficiency. The specific details are as follows.
[0017] 1. A dual-axis motor is installed. The output end of the dual-axis motor can drive the sector gear to rotate, thereby moving the connecting plate. It can also vibrate up and down inside the tank through the cooling box and the support plate.
[0018] Furthermore, a guiding mechanism is provided, which slides inside the receiving tube via a fixed rod and a piston block, enabling the gas inside the receiving tube to be transported to the inside of the tank, allowing the coolant inside the tank to be fully mixed and ensuring cooling efficiency.
[0019] 2. A pump body is installed. Through the installation of the pump body and the delivery pipe, the coolant inside the tank is absorbed. The pump body and the delivery pipe also provide side flushing treatment to the water spray nozzle and the plastic particles inside the cooling box, which can further ensure the cooling efficiency.
[0020] 3. A tank is provided, and the inclined design of the tank facilitates the drainage of coolant inside the tank later. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0030] Please see Figures 1-7 The present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0031] Example 1: To address the issue that current water-cooled tanks on the market cool plastic granules using a lifting mechanism and perforations, but where cooling is only achieved through perforations, some plastic granules in the middle may not be adequately cooled, please refer to the attached... Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 5 The system includes a water inlet 2 located at the upper front side of the tank 1, and a drain outlet 3 located at the lower rear side of the tank 1. The interior of the tank 1 is inclined, and the drain outlet 3 is located near the lowest point inside the tank 1. It also includes two sets of support plates 4 at the top of the tank 1, and a dual-axis motor 5 fixed at the bottom of the tank 1. The output end of the dual-axis motor 5 is connected to a vertical shaking mechanism, which allows the support plates 4 to move vertically within the tank 1. The vertical shaking mechanism includes a sector gear rod 6 at the end of the dual-axis motor 5, with the outer side of the sector gear rod 6 positioned inside a connecting plate 7. Several sets of toothed blocks 8 are fixed at equal intervals on the inner side of the connecting plate 7, and the top of the connecting plate 7 is fixed to the bottom of the support plates 4. A guide mechanism is located at the bottom of the support plates 4, allowing the support plates 4 to slide stably on the top of the tank 1. The connecting plate 7 forms a sliding structure with the interior of the tank 1 through the guide mechanism. The guiding mechanism includes a fixing rod 9 fixed at the bottom corner of the support plate 4. A piston block 10 is also fixed at the bottom of the fixing rod 9. The outer side of the bottom of the piston block 10 slides against the inner side of the receiving tube 11. One side of the receiving tube 11 is fixed to the outer surface of the tank 1. An air outlet 12 is fixed at the bottom of the receiving tube 11, and the outer side of the air outlet 12 extends into the interior of the tank 1. A one-way air supply valve is also provided at the outer end of the air outlet 12, and a one-way air inlet valve is provided on one side of the bottom of the receiving tube 11.
[0032] By opening the top cover 14 of the cooling tank 13 and adding a certain amount of plastic granules, and then closing the cover 14, the dual-axis motor 5 can be started. This allows the output of the dual-axis motor 5 to drive the sector gear rod 6 to rotate inside the connecting plate 7. Since several sets of toothed blocks 8 are fixed inside the connecting plate 7, and the toothed blocks 8 are meshed with the inside of the sector gear rod 6, when the sector gear rod 6 rotates, the connecting plate 7 drives the bearing plate 4 and the cooling tank 13 to move up and down inside the tank 1. This up-and-down movement allows the coolant inside the cooling tank 13 and the tank 1 to be immersed, thus absorbing the coolant. The vertical movement of the cooling box 13 allows the plastic particles inside the cooling box 13 to fully enter. When the support plate 4 moves in height, the fixing rod 9 fixed at the bottom of the support plate 4 drives the piston block 10 to slide inside the receiving tube 11. Since the outer side of the piston block 10 is in contact with the inside of the receiving tube 11, the gas inside the receiving tube 11 is transported. At this time, the gas inside the receiving tube 11 will be transported to the coolant inside the tank 1 through the air outlet 12, causing the coolant to fluctuate, thereby ensuring that the coolant inside the tank 1 fully cools the plastic particles inside the cooling box 13.
[0033] Example 2: To fully cool the plastic particles suspended inside the cooling tank 13, please refer to the attached... Figure 1 Appendix Figure 6 and attached Figure 7 Cooling boxes 13 are embedded in the inner sides of both the left and right ends of the support plate 4. A cover plate 14 is rotatably installed on the top of the cooling box 13. A mesh plate 15 is installed on the bottom of the cooling box 13. Pump bodies 16 are fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the top of the support plate 4. A water inlet pipe 17 is connected to the bottom of the pump body 16. The bottom of the water inlet pipe 17 is submerged in the coolant in the tank 1. A delivery pipe 18 is connected to the output end of the pump body 16. The outer end of the delivery pipe 18 is connected to the spray nozzle 19. The outer side of the spray nozzle 19 is located inside the cooling box 13.
[0034] When rinsing the plastic particles suspended inside the tank 1, and when the height of the cooling tank 13 changes, the pump 16 can be started. Since the water inlet pipe 17 at the bottom of the pump 16 is submerged in the coolant inside the tank 1, starting the pump 16 allows it to draw water through the water inlet pipe 17 and deliver it to the spray nozzle 19 through the delivery pipe 18. At this time, the plastic inside the cooling tank 13 can be side-flushed, which can more efficiently cool the plastic particles inside the tank 1.
[0035] The contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
