Description

A rapid cooling device for plastic particle extrusion die Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plastic production technology, specifically to a rapid cooling device for plastic particle extrusion die. Background Technology

[0002] Plastic particles are granular materials composed of synthetic resins and additives such as fillers, plasticizers, stabilizers, lubricants, and colorants. They are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and have good insulation properties, and are widely used in various fields. Plastic particle extrusion is an important plastic molding process. First, plastic particles are added to the extruder barrel. Through heating and screw rotation, the particles gradually melt into a fluid melt. Then, the melt is extruded through a die of a specific shape to form a continuous profile consistent with the die shape. Finally, after cooling, shaping, and other subsequent processing, various plastic products are obtained, such as pipes, sheets, and profiles. This process has high production efficiency, can achieve automated continuous production, and has stable product quality.

[0003] Currently, in the extrusion production of plastic particles, the extrusion die plays a crucial role, determining the final shape of the extruded product. During the extrusion process, the molten plastic transfers heat to the die as it passes through it, causing the die temperature to rise. Currently, when using the die, operators need to connect cooling water pipes to the cooling pipes on the die after installation to cool it. This means that the cooling water pipes need to be disassembled every time the die is replaced, which is cumbersome, prolongs the replacement time, and reduces the efficiency of the die.

The annular plate 6 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the outer surface of the L-shaped connecting pipe 11.

[0025] Furthermore, the connecting mechanism also includes an annular sealing plate 12 and a water inlet connecting pipe 13. The annular sealing plate 12 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the L-shaped connecting pipe 11, and the water inlet connecting pipe 13 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the cooling plate 7. The lower end of the water inlet connecting pipe 13 penetrates into the interior of the cooling plate 7, and the upper end of the water inlet connecting pipe 13 is slidably inserted into the interior of the L-shaped connecting pipe 11. A water outlet connecting pipe 18 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the cooling plate 7 at the position corresponding to the lower L-shaped plate 4, and the upper end of the water outlet connecting pipe 18 penetrates into the interior of the cooling plate 7.

[0026] Furthermore, a sealing groove 14 is provided on the upper surface of the water inlet connection pipe 13 at the position corresponding to the annular sealing plate 12.

[0027] Furthermore, a threaded rod 15 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the rectangular groove 8, and the slider 9 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 15. A motor 16 is fixedly installed inside the L-shaped plate 4 on the upper side. The output end of the motor 16 rotatably passes through the interior of the rectangular groove 8, and the motor 16 is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 15.

[0028] Furthermore, there are two connecting mechanisms, which are respectively set on two L-shaped plates 4 and arranged in a mirror image.

[0029] Furthermore, each of the two L-shaped connecting pipes 11 has a connecting hose 17 fixedly installed at one end away from the corresponding connecting plate 5.

[0030] Furthermore, when using this equipment, the die head 3 is bolted to the right end of the extruder 1. Then, the motor 16 inside the upper L-shaped plate 4 can be started. The motor 16 drives the threaded rod 15 to rotate. Since the slider 9 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 15, the slider 9 moves left and right in the rectangular groove 8, driving the connecting plate 5, the L-shaped connecting pipe 11, and the annular plate 6 to move left and right, corresponding to the water inlet connecting pipe 13. Then, the electric push rod 10 is started to push the connecting plate 5, so that the upper end of the water inlet connecting pipe 13 is inserted into the annular plate 6 at the lower end of the L-shaped connecting pipe 11.
