Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to plastic granules, specifically a polygonal granule structure. Background Technology

[0002] Masterbatch refers to plastic pellets produced during the plastic processing and molding process by mixing various additives, fillers, and a small amount of carrier resin for ease of operation, followed by metering, mixing, melting, extrusion, pelletizing, and other processing steps using equipment such as extruders.

[0003] During use, plastic granules need to be mixed with other plastic granules. The mixed granules are then processed into plastic products through injection molding or extrusion. Machine vibrations can cause the granules of varying weights to shift, resulting in uneven mixing and affecting the quality of the final product.

[0004] Given the aforementioned technical problems of difficulty in uniformly mixing plastic granules, or the resulting unevenness after mixing, there is an urgent need to provide an improved solution to overcome these technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a granular structure that can hold materials and support other mixed plastic particles.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution;

[0007] A multi-angled particle structure includes a core portion, with multiple end corner portions distributed circumferentially around the core portion; the end corner portions extend outward in a wedge shape from the core portion; the end corner portions near the core portion form a root portion, the root portion gradually thins along the extension direction, and the top ends converge to form a support top; and a space for accommodating particles is reserved between adjacent end corner portions.

[0008] Furthermore, the root is an arc-shaped surface, and the two end faces of the root are flush with the end faces of the core to form a flat end face;

[0009] Furthermore, the core portion and the end corner portion are integrally formed by an extrusion die; the flat end face is formed by a cutting blade.

[0010] Furthermore, the core portion is a cylindrical particle, and the end corner portion is disposed on the cylindrical surface of the core portion;

[0011] Furthermore, the thickness of the core portion is greater than the diameter of the circular cross-section of the core portion;

[0012] Furthermore, the support top has a rounded corner.

[0013] Furthermore, the number of the end corners is at least three;

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] In practical use, the core is the central part of the granule, and multiple end corners are provided on the core, so that the overall granule is no longer a cylindrical or spherical shape. The end corners are wedge-shaped, thicker at the base and gradually thinning along the extension direction until they converge at the support top. The thicker base ensures that the end corners will not break when supporting the plastic granules. The wedge-shaped end corners can be better inserted into the plastic stockpile. Furthermore, the granule space between adjacent end corners can better accommodate other plastic granules, improving the efficiency of mixing and homogenizing. The cross-section of the overall structure of the end corners is a star shape with several rounded convex corners, which provides good support for other plastic granules of surrounding shapes, allowing the plastic granules to be evenly mixed with other plastic granules during use. Moreover, when the mixed plastic granules are processed by extruders or other processing equipment, the convex corner design increases the friction and gap between the product and other plastic granules, preventing uneven mixing caused by machine vibration after mixing.

[0016] This invention enables plastic granules to mix more evenly with other granular raw materials during use. Furthermore, through structural improvements, it increases the friction and gaps between granules, preventing uneven mixing caused by vibration during processing and effectively ensuring the quality of the molded product.

[0018] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the present invention from an oblique upward view; Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] refer to Figure 1-2 As shown, a multi-angled particle structure includes a core portion 1, and multiple end corner portions 2 are distributed circumferentially around the core portion 1; the end corner portions 2 extend outward in a wedge shape from the core portion 1; the end corner portions 2 near the core portion 1 are root portions 21, the thickness of the root portions 21 gradually decreases along the extension direction, and the top ends converge to form a support top 22; and a particle-accommodating space 3 is reserved between adjacent end corner portions 2.

[0021] In practical use, the core portion 1 of this invention is the central part of the particle, and multiple end corner portions 2 are provided on the core portion 1, so that the overall particle is freed from the original cylindrical or spherical shape. The end corner portions 2 are wedge-shaped, with a thicker base 21 at the bottom, gradually thinning along the extension direction until they converge at the support top 22. The thicker base 21 can ensure that the end corner portions 2 will not break when supporting the plastic particles. The wedge-shaped end corner portions 2 can be better inserted into the plastic material pile. Furthermore, the particle space 3 between adjacent end corner portions 2 can better accommodate other plastic particles, improving the efficiency of mixing and homogenizing. The cross-section of the overall structure of the end corner portions 2 is a star shape with several rounded convex corners, which provides good support for other plastic particles of different shapes, so that the plastic particles can be evenly mixed with other plastic particles during use. Moreover, when the mixed plastic particles are processed by extruders or other processing equipment, the convex corner design increases the friction and gap between the product and other plastic particles, preventing uneven mixing caused by machine vibration after mixing.

[0022] This multi-angled particle structure allows the plastic particles to mix more evenly with other granular raw materials during use. Furthermore, the structural improvement increases the friction and gaps between particles, preventing uneven mixing caused by vibration during processing and effectively ensuring the quality of the molded product.

[0023] In this embodiment, the root portion 21 is an arc-shaped surface, and the two end faces 23 of the root portion 21 are flush with the end face of the core portion 1 to form a flat end face 11. In this embodiment, the core portion 1 and the end corner portion 2 are integrally formed by an extrusion die; the flat end face 11 is formed by a cutter; in this embodiment, the core portion is a cylindrical particle, and the end corner portion is disposed on the cylindrical surface of the core portion; the core portion 1 and the prism portion 2 are integrally formed by an extrusion die, and the ends are cut by a cutter mechanism to form a flat end face 11; the core portion 1 is a cylindrical particle, and the prism portion 2 is disposed on the cylindrical surface 12 of the core portion 1; in this embodiment, the thickness of the core portion 1 is greater than the diameter of the circular cross-section of the core portion 1; the core portion 1 has a certain thickness to avoid mutual accumulation and improve the uniformity of the mixed plastic particles.

[0024] In this embodiment, the support top 22 has a rounded top corner; when the top of the support top 22 is rounded, it avoids the polygonal particles of this application from sticking together in sheets, and facilitates its own processing.

[0025] In this embodiment, the number of end corner portions 2 is at least three; when the number of end corner portions 2 is three, the present application is in the shape of a triangular star; multiple end corner portions 2 can be set as needed, corresponding to a four-pointed star, a five-pointed star, etc.

[0026] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples illustrating the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to replace them, without departing from the scope defined by the spirit of this utility model.
