Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of surface treatment equipment technology, and more specifically, to a thermoplastic elastomer surface treatment equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Thermoplastic elastomers (TPE / TPR), also known as synthetic rubber or artificial rubber, possess the excellent properties of traditional cross-linked vulcanized rubber, including high elasticity, aging resistance, and oil resistance, while also offering the ease of processing and wide range of processing methods available for ordinary plastics. They can be produced using injection molding, extrusion, blow molding, and other processing methods, and the sprue scraps can be 100% directly reused after being crushed. This simplifies the processing process and reduces costs, making TPE / TPR materials the latest material to replace traditional rubber. Their environmental friendliness, non-toxicity, comfortable feel, and attractive appearance allow for more creative product designs. Therefore, they are a more human-centered, high-quality new synthetic material and a globally standardized environmentally friendly material.
[0003] In the processing of thermoplastic elastomers, surface treatment equipment is required for cleaning. To improve the cleaning effect, a stirring rod is installed inside the equipment to agitate the thermoplastic elastomer by rotating. However, the rotation method of the stirring rod is relatively simple, which reduces the cleaning effect. Therefore, we provide a surface treatment equipment for thermoplastic elastomers. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a surface treatment device for thermoplastic elastomers to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] During the processing of thermoplastic elastomers, surface treatment equipment is required for cleaning. To improve the cleaning effect, an agitator is installed inside the equipment to stir the thermoplastic elastomer by rotating the agitator. However, the rotation method of the agitator is relatively simple, which reduces the cleaning effect.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A thermoplastic elastomer surface treatment device includes a cleaning tank. An installation plate is fixedly connected inside the cleaning tank. A first transmission gear is rotatably connected to the outside of the installation plate. A swing plate is rotatably connected to the outside of the installation plate and to one side of the first transmission gear. A sliding groove is formed inside the swing plate. A sliding rod is slidably connected inside the sliding groove and fixedly connected to the first transmission gear. A fixed shaft is fixedly connected inside the swing plate. A housing is fitted outside the fixed shaft and rotatably connected to the fixed shaft. A stirring rod is rotatably connected inside the housing. A first bevel gear is fixedly connected to the outside of the stirring rod. A second bevel gear is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed shaft, and the first and second bevel gears mesh with each other.
[0008] Preferably, the mounting plate has a T-shaped structure.
[0009] Preferably, the outer wall of the slide rod is in contact with the inner wall of the slide groove.
[0010] Preferably, a second transmission gear is rotatably connected to the outside of the mounting plate and above the first transmission gear. The second transmission gear meshes with the first transmission gear. A connecting plate is rotatably connected to the outside of the second transmission gear. A fixing rod is rotatably connected to the outside of the connecting plate. The fixing rod is fixedly connected to the housing.
[0011] Preferably, a motor is fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting plate, the first transmission gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, a control panel is fixedly connected to the outside of the cleaning tank, and the motor is electrically connected to the control panel.
[0012] Preferably, a discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning tank.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] The motor starts and drives the first transmission gear to rotate. The first transmission gear drives the swing plate to swing up and down through the slide rod and slide groove. This causes the swing plate to move the stirring rod up and down as a whole through the fixed shaft and the housing. At the same time, the first transmission gear drives the second transmission gear to rotate. The second transmission gear drives the housing to rotate back and forth on the fixed shaft through the connecting plate and the fixed rod. This causes the housing to swing back and forth as a whole with the stirring rod. While the housing is rotating back and forth, the stirring rod itself will also rotate back and forth under the action of the first bevel gear and the second bevel gear. This makes the movement of the stirring rod more varied, improves the stirring effect, and enables more thorough cleaning of thermoplastic elastomers. Attached Figure Description

[0020] 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.
[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 4 A thermoplastic elastomer surface treatment device includes a cleaning tank 1. A mounting plate 2 is fixedly connected inside the cleaning tank 1. A first transmission gear 3 is rotatably connected to the outside of the mounting plate 2. A swing plate 4 is rotatably connected to the outside of the mounting plate 2 and to one side of the first transmission gear 3. A sliding groove 5 is formed inside the swing plate 4. A sliding rod 6 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 5. The sliding rod 6 is fixedly connected to the first transmission gear 3. When the first transmission gear 3 rotates, it can drive the swing plate 4 to swing up and down through the sliding groove 5 and the sliding rod 6. A fixed component is fixedly connected inside the swing plate 4. A fixed shaft 7 is fitted with a housing 8 on its outside. The housing 8 is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 7. A stirring rod 9 is rotatably connected inside the housing 8. A first bevel gear 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the stirring rod 9. A second bevel gear 11 is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed shaft 7. The first bevel gear 10 and the second bevel gear 11 are meshed together. Since the housing 8 can rotate back and forth on the fixed shaft 7, the rotation of the housing 8 will drive the stirring rod 9 to swing back and forth. During the process, the stirring rod 9 can also rotate under the action of the first bevel gear 10 and the second bevel gear 11.
[0022] Furthermore, the mounting plate 2 has a T-shaped structure, which allows the first transmission gear 3, the second transmission gear 12, and the swing plate 4 to be better mounted on the mounting plate 2.
[0023] Furthermore, the outer wall of the slide rod 6 is in contact with the inner wall of the slide groove 5. When the first transmission gear 3 rotates, it will drive the slide rod 6 to make a circular motion. The slide rod 6, together with the slide groove 5, drives the swing plate 4 to swing up and down, thereby driving the stirring rod 9 to stir the thermoplastic elastomer in the cleaning tank 1.
[0024] Furthermore, a second transmission gear 12 is rotatably connected to the outside of the mounting plate 2 and above the first transmission gear 3. The second transmission gear 12 is meshed with the first transmission gear 3. A connecting plate 13 is rotatably connected to the outside of the second transmission gear 12. A fixing rod 14 is rotatably connected to the outside of the connecting plate 13. The fixing rod 14 is fixedly connected to the housing 8. When the first transmission gear 3 rotates, it will drive the second transmission gear 12 to rotate. The second transmission gear 12 drives the housing 8 to rotate back and forth on the fixed shaft 7 through the connecting plate 13 and the fixing rod 14. The housing 8 then drives the stirring rod 9 to swing back and forth.
[0025] Furthermore, a motor 15 is fixedly connected to the external of the mounting plate 2, and the first transmission gear 3 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 15. A control panel 16 is fixedly connected to the external of the cleaning box 1. The motor 15 is electrically connected to the control panel 16. The electrical equipment is powered by an external power supply and the start and stop of the motor 15 are controlled by the control panel 16. This is existing known technology and will not be elaborated further here.
[0026] Furthermore, a discharge pipe 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning tank 1, and an end cap is provided on the outside of the discharge pipe 17. After the end cap is opened, the cleaned thermoplastic elastomer can be discharged from the cleaning tank 1.
[0027] The steps of using this utility model are as follows: When using this thermoplastic elastomer surface treatment equipment, the motor 15 starts and drives the first transmission gear 3 to rotate. The first transmission gear 3 drives the swing plate 4 to swing up and down through the slide rod 6 and the slide groove 5. This causes the swing plate 4 to drive the stirring rod 9 to move up and down as a whole through the fixed shaft 7 and the housing 8, thereby stirring the thermoplastic elastomer in the cleaning tank 1. At the same time, the first transmission gear 3 drives the second transmission gear 12 to rotate. The second transmission gear 12 drives the housing 8 to rotate back and forth on the fixed shaft 7 through the connecting plate 13 and the fixed rod 14. This causes the housing 8 to drive the stirring rod 9 to swing back and forth as a whole, thereby stirring the thermoplastic elastomer back and forth. At the same time as the housing 8 rotates back and forth, under the action of the first bevel gear 10 and the second bevel gear 11, the stirring rod 9 itself will also rotate back and forth, making the movement of the stirring rod 9 more varied, improving the stirring effect, and enabling the thermoplastic elastomer to be cleaned more thoroughly.
