Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of granulator technology, specifically to a granulator for color masterbatch processing that is easy to feed. Background Technology

[0002] A color masterbatch granulator is a key piece of equipment specifically designed for manufacturing color masterbatches. Its working principle involves mixing raw materials such as pigments, dispersants, and carrier resins in a specific ratio, then melting, mixing, and plasticizing them under high temperature and pressure through the rotation and shearing action of a screw.

[0003] The prior art disclosure number CN216037451U discloses a granulator for easy feeding in color masterbatch processing, comprising: a machine body, a feeding hopper mounted on the surface of the machine body, and a controller disposed on one side of the feeding hopper; a collecting tray fitted onto the outer wall of the feeding hopper, a retaining ring connected to the bottom of the collecting tray, a spring movably mounted inside the retaining ring, a limit plate connected to one end of the spring, a telescopic rod connected to one end of the limit plate, a clamping block connected to one end of the telescopic rod, and one side of the clamping block connected to the outer wall of the feeding hopper. In this granulator for easy feeding in color masterbatch processing, moving the collecting tray upwards along the outer wall of the feeding hopper compresses the clamping block inside the retaining ring, causing it to contract inwards. Under the action of the spring, the clamping block adheres tightly to the outer wall of the feeding hopper, ultimately fixing the collecting tray to the feeding hopper. Material falling during feeding will fall into the collecting tray, thus preventing material from scattering on the ground.

[0004] With the above configuration, the existing granulator is installed from the bottom of the feed hopper onto the outer wall of the feed hopper using a collecting disc and a retaining ring. The feed hopper is then installed on the machine body. Next, the collecting disc is moved upwards along the outer wall of the feed hopper. This compresses the clamping blocks inside the retaining ring, causing them to contract inwards. Under the action of a spring, the clamping blocks adhere tightly to the outer wall of the feed hopper, ultimately fixing the collecting disc to the feed hopper. Material falling during feeding will drop into the collecting disc, preventing material from scattering on the ground and facilitating feeding. However, the existing granulator has the following drawbacks during operation:

[0005] When using the granulator described in the prior art, the collection disc needs to be installed on the outer wall of the feed hopper first. However, after a long period of use, the elasticity of the internal springs tends to decrease, which reduces the friction between the clamping blocks and the outer wall of the feed hopper, making it easy for the collection disc to fall off and affecting the collection of scattered materials. Utility Model Content

[0006] This utility model aims to provide a granulator for color masterbatch processing that is easy to feed, mainly to solve the technical problem that the springs in the existing technology will lose elasticity after long-term use, which will easily cause the collection tray to fall off and affect the collection of scattered materials.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A granulator for easy feeding in color masterbatch processing includes a granulator body, a feed hopper, and a collection tray. A support plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the granulator body. A drive motor is fixedly connected to one side of the support plate, and a housing is fixedly connected to the other side of the support plate. The bottom of the feed hopper is connected to the housing. An auger is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing. The output shaft of the drive motor is fixedly connected to one end of the auger. A support ring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feed hopper. A limit component is installed on the bottom surface of the collection tray.

[0009] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model:

[0010] 1. Working principle: When the granulator is needed, first install the collecting tray onto the outer wall of the feeding hopper through the limiting component, so that the fixed block abuts against the support ring. Then install the feeding hopper onto the outer shell, and then install the outer shell with the auger onto the support plate, so that the auger is connected to the drive motor. Then start the drive motor to drive the auger to rotate, which can effectively convey the material.

[0011] 2. Beneficial effects:

[0012] Existing technology involves installing a collection tray and retaining rings from the bottom of the feed hopper onto its outer wall, then mounting the feed hopper onto the machine body. The collection tray is then moved upwards along the outer wall of the feed hopper, compressing the clamping blocks inside the retaining rings and causing them to retract inwards. Under the action of a spring, the clamping blocks press firmly against the outer wall of the feed hopper, ultimately fixing the collection tray to the feed hopper. Material falling during feeding will fall into the collection tray, preventing material from scattering and facilitating feeding. However, existing granulators require the collection tray to be installed on the outer wall of the feed hopper first, which poses a challenge for long-term use. After use, the internal spring force tends to decrease, reducing the friction between the clamping block and the outer wall of the feed hopper. This can cause the collection tray to fall off, affecting the collection of scattered materials. This solution addresses this by setting up a support plate, limiting components, an auger, and a drive motor. First, the drive motor and auger are installed on the support plate. Then, by pulling the pull plate, the pull plate moves the pull rod, which in turn moves the fixing block to compress the first spring, installing the collection tray onto the outer wall of the feed hopper. This ensures that one side of the fixing block abuts against the upper surface of the support ring, preventing the collection tray from falling off due to the decrease in the first spring force. At the same time, the auger also avoids the technical problem of material blockage.

[0013] Preferably, the limiting component includes a limiting ring. The inner wall of the limiting ring has symmetrically formed movable grooves. A fixed block is slidably connected to the inner wall of each movable groove. One side of the fixed block abuts against the upper surface of the support ring. A pull rod is fixedly connected to one end of the fixed block. The pull rod passes through the limiting ring and is slidably connected to it. A first spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the pull rod inside the movable groove. One end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the movable groove, and the other end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the fixed block. A pull plate is fixedly connected to the end of the pull rod away from the fixed block. By setting the limiting component, the collection tray can be limited, preventing it from falling off.

[0014] Preferably, a first horizontal block is fixed to the outer wall of the outer shell, and a second horizontal block is fixed to one side of the support plate. A groove is formed at one end of the first horizontal block, and a limit rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove. A second spring is fixed to the inner wall of the groove, and the other end of the second spring is fixed to the limit rod. A limit groove is formed at one end of the second horizontal block, and the limit rod is inserted into the limit groove. A push plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limit groove, and a push rod is fixed to one side of the push plate. The push rod passes through the second horizontal block and is slidably connected to it. This design allows the outer shell and the auger to be stably fixed to the support plate, preventing them from shaking or slipping.

[0015] Preferably, one end of the auger is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft, and one end of the rotating shaft has a slot. The output shaft of the drive motor is fixedly connected to a locking block, which engages with the slot. By setting the slot and locking block, the housing and drive motor can be disassembled, allowing for easy removal and replacement of the housing and auger if they are damaged.

[0016] Preferably, a fixing ring is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the granulator body, and a discharge ring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outer shell, with the discharge ring abutting against the fixing ring. By setting the fixing ring, the shaking of the outer shell can be prevented, and the discharge ring can also be limited, making the discharge from the discharge ring more stable.

[0017] Preferably, a push block is fixedly connected to the end of the push rod away from the push plate, and a rubber pad is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the push block. This increases the friction force exerted by the push block and prevents the push rod from retracting into the groove. Attached Figure Description
