[0024] In order to make the technical personnel in the field better understand the technical scheme of the utility model, the utility model will be further explained in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] As Figs. 1 to 3 The utility model discloses a quick detachable color masterbatch machine, which mainly comprises a mixing box 1 and a stirring device 11 located in the mixing box 1.

[0026] The side wall or top of the mixing box 1 is provided with at least one feeding port 12 for receiving externally delivered materials. In this embodiment, the mixing box 1 can be provided with one or more feeding ports 12 according to actual production needs to adapt to the addition of multi-component materials.

[0027] The utility model discloses an independent feeding module 2, which is detachably connected to the feeding port 12. Each feeding module 2 comprises:

[0028] Hopper 21: located at the top of the feeding module 2, used for temporarily storing the materials to be delivered.

[0029] Screw conveyor 22: located below the hopper 21, its main function is to convey the material in the hopper 21 into the mixing tank 1. The output end of the screw conveyor 22 extends into the mixing tank 1 from the charging port 12.

[0030] Specific structure of the screw conveyor 22: as shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 , it includes a long cylindrical shell 221 for accommodating the conveying screw 222, the conveying screw 222 located inside the shell 221, and the drive motor 223 for driving the conveying screw 222 to rotate. The drive motor 223 can be a stepper motor, a servo motor or a DC motor, etc. The free end of the shell 221 extends into the mixing tank 1, and a discharge port 224 is provided on the lower side of the free end, through which the material is discharged from the conveying screw 222 and falls into the mixing tank 1.

[0031] Preferably, the shell 221 and the conveying screw 222 are inclined as a whole, and gradually rise from the outer side (i.e. near the drive motor 223 end) to the inner side (i.e. the discharge port 224 end). The main purpose of this inclined arrangement (for example, the inclination angle A can be selected between, for example, 5° to 20°, preferably 6° to 15°) is to avoid the powder or granular material from sliding uncontrollably from the hopper 21 through the inner cavity of the shell 221 to the mixing tank 1 due to gravity, thereby affecting the accuracy of the charging. With the appropriate inclination angle, the rotating action of the conveying screw 222 can be better utilized to achieve precise and controllable conveying of the material.

[0032] Access opening 225 and access cover 226: in order to facilitate the cleaning and maintenance of the screw conveyor 22, an access opening 225 is provided on the bottom surface of the shell 221, and the access opening 225 is preferably located directly below the hopper 21 to facilitate the cleaning of the material that may accumulate on the bottom of the hopper 21 and the shell 221. The access cover 226 is detachably connected at the access opening 225. The user can quickly open the access cover 226 to inspect or thoroughly clean the conveying screw 222 and the inner wall of the shell 221, especially when changing different types or colors of materials. This design greatly saves cleaning time and effectively prevents cross-contamination of materials.

[0033] Support 23: used to support the hopper 21 and the screw conveyor 22, and can be detachably connected to the outer wall of the mixing tank 1. The support 23 aims to provide stable support while achieving quick disassembly and precise positioning of the charging module 2.

[0034] Specific structure of the bracket 23: the bracket 23 comprises a seat body 231 and a connecting plate 232. The seat body 231 is used to fix the hopper 21 and the screw conveyor 22, while the connecting plate 232 serves as an interface for connecting the bracket 23 with the mixing tank 1, and is detachably fixed on the outer wall of the mixing tank 1, preferably at the charging port 12.

[0035] Adjusting structure: between the seat body 231 and the connecting plate 232, there is an adjusting structure for adjusting the inner-outer position and the pitch angle of the seat body 231 relative to the connecting plate 232.

[0036] Specific implementation of the adjusting structure: as shown in Fig. 3 the adjusting structure comprises at least one strip-shaped hole 2321 provided on the connecting plate 232, a threaded hole 2311 provided on the seat body 231 and matched with the strip-shaped hole 2321, and an adjusting screw 233 passing through the strip-shaped hole 2321 and screwed into the threaded hole 2311.

[0037] Adjusting operation: when fine adjustment of the position of the charging module 2 is needed (for example, to ensure that the output end of the screw conveyor 22 is accurately aligned with the center of the charging port 12, or to adjust the depth of the screw conveyor 22 extending into the mixing tank 1), the user can first loosen the adjusting screw 233. At this time, the seat body 231 can move left or right, or forward or backward (i.e. inner-outer) within the range defined by the strip-shaped hole 2321, to adjust its relative position in the horizontal plane. After adjusting to the desired position, the seat body 231 can be locked by tightening the adjusting screw 233. At the same time, by adjusting the depth of the adjusting screw 233, the pitch angle of the seat body 231 can be fine-adjusted, so as to achieve the best alignment of the output end of the screw conveyor 22 with the charging port 12, ensuring smooth material conveying and avoiding material scattering. This design makes the installation and debugging of the charging module 2 extremely convenient and accurate.

[0038] Fixing method of the connecting plate 232: the connecting plate 232 is detachably fixed on the outer wall of the mixing tank 1 by means of several fasteners (such as screws).

[0039] The above fasteners can realize quick release, and the adjusting screw 233 can also realize quick release. In order to realize the purpose of "quick release", these fasteners and the adjusting screw 233 are preferably of a type facilitating quick operation, for example, can be butterfly bolts with handles, quick buckles, locking clamps, or eccentric clamping mechanisms, etc. This greatly shortens the installation and disassembly time of the charging module 2, and enables the user to complete the operation without the need for professional tools.

[0040] Material guide plate 13: around the periphery of the outer wall of the charging port 12, preferably, a material guide plate 13 is arranged. The lower end of the material guide plate 13 extends outwardly and obliquely. The material guide plate 13 is used to guide the partial overflow to discharge, avoiding the accumulation of overflow.

[0041] The quick-release color masterbatch machine has obvious convenience and high efficiency during use.

[0042] 1. Quick installation and disassembly: when it is necessary to install or replace the feeding module 2, the feeding module 2 is only needed to be placed beside the mixing box 1, the connecting plate 232 is aligned with the corresponding mounting position on the mixing box 1, and the feeding module 2 can be quickly fixed through simple operation (such as tightening the bolt). Reverse operation is performed when disassembling, and the whole process does not need complex tools, greatly shortening the downtime. Of course, the connecting plate 232 can also be fixed on the corresponding mounting position of the mixing box 1 in advance through the bolt, and then the seat body 231 and the hopper 21 and the screw conveyor 22 thereon are integrally quickly disassembled and assembled through the adjusting screw 233.

[0043] 2. Easy to clean and maintain: since the feeding module 2 can be quickly disassembled from the mixing box 1, the user can move it to a special cleaning area for thorough cleaning, avoiding the limitations of operating on the machine. Especially the setting of the maintenance opening 225 and the maintenance cover 226 of the screw conveyor 22 makes the internal cleaning and removal of residual materials extremely convenient, effectively prevents cross contamination between different colors or types of materials, and ensures product quality.

[0044] 3. Independent debugging and maintenance: when a feeding module 2 needs to be debugged (for example, adjusting the conveying amount) or fails, it can be disassembled and operated alone without affecting the operation of the whole color masterbatch machine. When troubleshooting and replacing parts, the faulty module can be quickly disassembled for maintenance or replacement, while other feeding modules can still work (multiple feeding ports are provided), thereby significantly improving production efficiency and equipment utilization.

[0045] In summary, the quick-release color masterbatch machine successfully solves the problems of complex installation, difficult cleaning and maintenance, and inconvenient debugging of the feeding device of the color masterbatch machine in the prior art, significantly improves the operation efficiency, maintenance convenience and production flexibility of the equipment, and has good practical value and market prospect.
