These reasons together make mixing devices play an important role in the production of rotomolded boxes.

[0003] In traditional methods, plastic powder, due to its fine particles, high moisture content, and stickiness, tends to adhere to the mixing chamber after mixing, making it difficult to remove completely. This results in uneven discharge of the plastic powder after mixing, which reduces the processing efficiency of subsequent rotational molding boxes and is detrimental to the production of rotational molding boxes. Utility Model Content

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a raw material mixing device for rotational molding boxes. This device solves the problem that in traditional methods, plastic powder, due to its fine particle size, high moisture content, and stickiness, tends to adhere to the mixing chamber after mixing, making it difficult to remove completely. This results in uneven discharge of the plastic powder after mixing, which reduces the processing efficiency of subsequent rotational molding boxes and is detrimental to rotational molding box production.

[0006] (II) Technical Solution

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a rotomolding box raw material mixing device, comprising a mixing chamber and a top cover, wherein the bottom wall of the mixing chamber is a conical surface, the top cover is disposed at the upper opening of the mixing chamber, and a rapid mixing component is disposed on the top cover;

[0008] The rapid mixing assembly is used to uniformly mix the raw materials used before the production of the rotational molding box. The rapid mixing assembly includes a rotating cylinder, a first fixed frame, a rotating shaft, a first helical gear, a central column, a large gear, and a motor.

[0009] The rotating drum in the rapid mixing assembly is rotatably connected to the center of the upper cover. The lower end of the rotating drum is provided with multiple lifting and stirring components for stirring plastic raw material powder. The lifting and stirring components include a first fixed frame, which is fixedly connected to the lower outer surface of the rotating drum.

[0010] Preferably, the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the lower end of the first fixed frame, and a fixed sleeve is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft. A spiral blade is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the fixed sleeve, and the spiral blade is adapted to the bottom wall of the mixing chamber.

[0011] Preferably, the central column is rotatably connected inside the rotating cylinder, and a helical gear is fixedly sleeved at the lower end of the central column, while a large gear is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the upper end of the rotating cylinder.

[0012] Preferably, the first helical gear is fixedly sleeved on the end of the rotating shaft near the helical gear, the first helical gear meshes with the helical gear, and a second fixing frame is fixedly connected to the upper cover, the second fixing frame being fixedly connected to the upper end of the central column.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a raw material mixing device for rotational molding boxes, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. The raw material mixing device of this rotomolding box uses a reverse-start motor. The output shaft of the motor drives the spiral blades to rotate in the opposite direction through a series of mechanisms. When the spiral blades rotate, they apply a force to the plastic powder in the mixing chamber, close to the discharge valve, so that the plastic powder can be effectively discharged from the mixing chamber. This avoids the problem in the traditional method where the plastic powder, due to its fine particles, high moisture content, and certain stickiness, adheres to the mixing chamber after mixing and is not easy to remove completely. This results in uneven discharge of the plastic powder after mixing, which reduces the processing efficiency of the subsequent rotomolding box and is not conducive to the production of rotomolding boxes.

[0018] 2. The rotomolding box raw material mixing device uses a rotating helical gear to drive the spiral blades to rotate via a rotating shaft and a fixed sleeve. The rotating spiral blades can apply an upward force to the plastic powder on the bottom wall of the mixing chamber, which can drive the plastic powder in the mixing chamber obliquely upward, so that the plastic powder can be uniformly mixed in the vertical space of the mixing chamber. Furthermore, since the spiral blades also rotate around the helical gear when they rotate, the plastic powder in the radial direction in the mixing chamber can also be uniformly mixed.

If the first and second are mentioned, they are only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated or the order of the technical features indicated.

[0026] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a new technical solution: a rotomolding box raw material mixing device, including a mixing chamber 1 and an upper cover 2. The bottom wall of the mixing chamber 1 is a conical surface, and the upper cover 2 is set at the upper opening of the mixing chamber 1. A rapid mixing component is provided on the upper cover 2.

[0028] The rapid mixing assembly is used to uniformly mix the raw materials used before the production of the rotational molding box. The rapid mixing assembly includes a rotating cylinder 3, a first fixed frame 4, a rotating shaft 5, a first helical gear 8, a central column 9, a large gear 11, and a motor 13.

[0029] The rotating cylinder 3 in the rapid mixing assembly is rotatably connected to the center of the upper cover 2. The lower end of the rotating cylinder 3 is provided with multiple lifting and stirring components for stirring plastic raw material powder. The lifting and stirring components include a first fixing frame 4, which is fixedly connected to the lower outer surface of the rotating cylinder 3.

[0030] Furthermore, the rotating shaft 5 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the first fixed frame 4, and a fixed sleeve 6 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 5. A spiral blade 7 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the fixed sleeve 6, and the spiral blade 7 is adapted to the bottom wall of the mixing chamber 1.

[0031] Furthermore, the central column 9 is rotatably connected inside the rotating cylinder 3, and a helical gear 10 is fixedly sleeved at the lower end of the central column 9, while a large gear 11 is fixedly sleeved on the upper outer surface of the rotating cylinder 3.

[0032] Furthermore, the first helical gear 8 is fixedly sleeved on the end of the rotating shaft 5 near the helical gear 10, and the first helical gear 8 is meshed with the helical gear 10. The upper cover 2 is fixedly connected to the second fixing bracket 12, and the second fixing bracket 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the central column 9.

[0033] Furthermore, the motor 13 is fixedly connected to the upper cover 2, and the output shaft of the upper cover 2 is fixedly sleeved with a motor gear 14, which meshes with the large gear 11.

[0034] Furthermore, a fixed base 16 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the mixing chamber 1, a discharge valve 17 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the lower end of the mixing chamber 1, and a feed inlet 15 is fixedly connected to the upper cover 2.

[0035] Furthermore, during use, the output shaft of the motor 13 drives the motor gear 14 to rotate. The rotating motor gear 14 drives the rotating cylinder 3 to rotate via the large gear 11. The rotating cylinder 3 drives the first fixed frame 4 on it to rotate together. When the first fixed frame 4 rotates, it drives the rotating shaft 5 and the spiral blades 7 on the fixed sleeve 6 to rotate around in the mixing chamber 1. Since the first helical gear 8 meshes with the helical gear 10, the first helical gear 8 can be driven to rotate by the helical gear 10 when the lifting stirring component rotates around the helical gear 10. The rotating first helical gear 8 can drive the spiral blades 7 to rotate via the rotating shaft 5 and the fixed sleeve 6. The rotating spiral blades 7 can apply an upward force to the plastic powder on the bottom wall of the mixing chamber 1. This allows the plastic powder in the mixing chamber 1 to be driven obliquely upward, so that the plastic powder can be evenly mixed in the vertical space of the mixing chamber 1. Furthermore, since the spiral blades 7 also rotate around the helical gear 10 when they rotate, the plastic powder in the radial direction in the mixing chamber 1 can also be evenly mixed.

[0036] Furthermore, after mixing is complete, the motor 13 is started in reverse. The output shaft of the motor 13 drives the spiral blade 7 to rotate in the opposite direction through a series of mechanisms. When the spiral blade 7 rotates, it applies a force close to the discharge valve 17 to the plastic powder in the mixing chamber 1, so that the plastic powder can be effectively discharged from the mixing chamber 1. This avoids the problem in the traditional method where the plastic powder, due to its fine particles, high moisture content, and certain stickiness, will adhere to the mixing chamber after mixing and is not easy to remove completely. This makes the discharge of plastic powder after mixing not smooth, which will reduce the processing efficiency of the subsequent rotational molding box and is not conducive to the production of rotational molding boxes.

[0037] Working principle: During use, the output shaft of the motor 13 drives the motor gear 14 to rotate. The rotating motor gear 14 drives the rotating cylinder 3 to rotate through the large gear 11. The rotating cylinder 3 drives the first fixed frame 4 on it to rotate together. When the first fixed frame 4 rotates, it drives the rotating shaft 5 and the spiral blades 7 on the fixed sleeve 6 to rotate around in the mixing chamber 1. Since the first helical gear 8 meshes with the helical gear 10, the first helical gear 8 can be driven to rotate by the helical gear 10 when the lifting and stirring components rotate around the helical gear 10. The rotating first helical gear 8 can drive the spiral blades 7 to rotate through the rotating shaft 5 and the fixed sleeve 6. The rotating spiral blades 7 can apply an upward force to the plastic powder on the bottom wall of the mixing chamber 1. This allows the plastic powder in the mixing chamber 1 to be driven obliquely upward, so that the plastic powder can be evenly mixed in the vertical space of the mixing chamber 1. Furthermore, since the spiral blades 7 also rotate around the helical gear 10 when they rotate, the plastic powder in the radial direction in the mixing chamber 1 can also be evenly mixed.

[0038] Furthermore, after mixing is complete, the motor 13 is started in reverse. The output shaft of the motor 13 can drive the spiral blade 7 to rotate in the opposite direction through a series of mechanisms. When the spiral blade 7 rotates, it will apply a force close to the discharge valve 17 to the plastic powder in the mixing chamber 1, so that the plastic powder can be effectively discharged from the mixing chamber 1.

[0039] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
