[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, an easy-to-clean screw extruder includes a machine body 1 and an extrusion tube installed on the machine body 1. The extrusion tube is divided into a fixed tube 2 and a separating tube 3 along its central axis. The fixed tube 2 is fixedly installed to the machine body 1, and the separating tube 3 can move radially along the extrusion tube to fit and seal with the fixed tube 2 or separate from it.

[0019] This product utilizes a method of dividing the extrusion tube into a fixed tube 2 and a separating tube 3. By separating the fixed tube 2 and the separating tube 3, the inner cavity of the extrusion tube is exposed. At this point, workers can clean the inner wall of the extrusion tube without having to remove the screw rod from the extrusion tube, thus achieving a convenient cleaning effect.

[0020] The separation surface of the fixed tube 2 and the separation tube 3 is vertically downward, and the vertically downward feature of the fixed tube 2 is used to separate the fixed tube 2 and the separation tube 3 when the production is finished. At this time, since the separation tube 3 and the fixed tube 2 are just in the end stage of the working state, the temperature is relatively high, so that the material still maintains the fluid state. At this time, the material naturally drops in the direction of the separation tube 3 under the influence of gravity, so that the position which is difficult to clean on one side of the fixed tube 2 can be more clean, so as to reduce the cleaning difficulty. The material falling on the separation tube 3 contacts with air in the falling process, and a condensation film appears on the surface. At this time, the material does not adhere too tightly when contacting with the separation tube 3, so that the cleaning is facilitated.

[0021] The two ends of the separation tube 3 are synchronously moved through the lifting device 4. The lifting device 4 includes two lifting hydraulic cylinders which are connected in parallel with a power supply hydraulic pump through a hydraulic pipe. The hydraulic pump is used to pump hydraulic oil into the lifting hydraulic cylinders, so that the lifting hydraulic cylinders push the separation tube 3 to synchronously move, so as to avoid the tilt caused by the asynchronization during the movement, and the damage caused by the impact between the separation tube 3 and the fixed tube 2. After the separation tube 3 and the fixed tube 2 are attached, the larger pressure in the lifting hydraulic cylinder is used to make the separation surface between the separation tube 3 and the fixed tube 2 more closely attached.

[0022] The separation tube 3 is provided with the protrusion 5 which is used to insert the fixed tube 2 to increase the sealing property.

[0023] The surface of the fixed tube 2 is covered with the anti-scald cover which is used for heat insulation. On the one hand, the anti-scald cover can be used for heat preservation when the equipment is running. On the other hand, the anti-scald cover can avoid the workers from being scalded by the fixed tube 2 due to the visual angle problem of the fixed tube 2.

[0024] The end of the fixed tube 2 close to the discharge port is threadedly connected with the locking head 6 which can be sealingly abutted with the separation tube 3. The locking head 6 is threadedly connected with the fixed tube 2, so that the locking head 6 is close to the fixed tube 2. When the separation tube 3 and the fixed tube 2 are attached, the close locking head 6 abuts against the separation tube 3, so as to clamp the separation tube 3, and then the material is more smoothly squeezed out.

[0025] It is apparent for those skilled in the art that the present application is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, but rather can be implemented in other concrete forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present application. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and not restrictive, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and all changes falling within the meaning and range of equivalents of the elements of the claims are intended to be embraced therein. Any reference signs in the claims should not be construed as limiting the claims to the figures in which the reference signs are used.

[0026] Furthermore, it should be understood that although the specification is described in terms of embodiments, not every embodiment includes every feature described. The specification can include implicit combinations of explicitly mentioned features and / or explicit combinations of implicitely mentioned features. Each embodiment depends on the explicit combinations of features and / or the implicit combinations of features made specifically within that embodiment, and each such embodiment can be combined with every other such embodiment to create further embodiments.
