Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of foam plastic production equipment, specifically a pre-foamed foam plastic storage cage. Background Technology

[0002] Foamed plastic is a material formed by the expansion of polystyrene particles under high pressure steam. After being molded by high temperature steam, it can form a tightly arranged foam product. After drying, a foamed plastic product with high hardness can be obtained.

[0003] When producing polystyrene using existing processes, it is necessary to pre-foam the polystyrene particles to allow them to expand in volume beforehand. Then, during high-temperature steam molding, the pre-foamed polystyrene particles are injected into the mold, reducing the time required for high-temperature steam molding.

[0004] However, after pre-foaming, the pre-foamed granules in the ordinary storage cage are squeezed together, and the presence of moisture in the granules will affect the final molding process. The granules located in the middle of the storage cage have difficulty dissipating moisture, resulting in a defect of high humidity in the pre-foamed plastic granules in the storage cage.

[0005] Based on this, the present invention designs a pre-foamed plastic storage cage to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pre-foamed plastic storage cage to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: It includes a mounting frame, on which a heightening frame is fixedly mounted; a mesh screen is fixedly mounted around the mounting frame and the heightening frame, the mesh screen being ring-shaped; a discharge hopper is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the mounting frame, a discharge valve is fixedly mounted on the discharge hopper, and a ventilation pipe is fixedly mounted on the discharge hopper, the ventilation pipe being placed within the heightening frame; the ventilation pipe has multiple ventilation openings; an end plate is fixedly mounted on the end of the ventilation pipe away from the discharge hopper; a filter screen is fixedly mounted on the end of the ventilation pipe near the hopper; a hot air blower is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame, and the outlet of the hot air blower is connected to the end of the ventilation pipe with the filter screen.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the hot air blower blows warm and dry air through the ventilation pipe into the pre-foamed particles in the mounting frame and the riser frame. This causes the pre-foamed particles, which are being squeezed together, to be constantly disturbed by the dry hot air. This allows the pre-foamed particles that are squeezed in the middle to have space to evaporate the moisture on their own, thereby reducing the humidity of the raw materials when they are conveyed into the molding equipment and improving the molding effect.

[0009] Preferably, a butterfly valve is fixedly installed on the ventilation duct, and the valve divides the ventilation duct into two sections.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the butterfly valve can divide the ventilation pipe into two sections and control the outflow height of the drying hot airflow according to the storage amount of pre-foamed particles in the storage cage.

[0011] Preferably, multiple butterfly valves are provided.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the outflow height of the dry hot airflow can be controlled more precisely, thereby improving the utilization rate of the dry hot airflow.

[0013] Preferably, an anti-intrusion net is fixedly installed on the ventilation opening.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-intrusion mesh is installed to prevent pre-foamed particles from entering the ventilation duct from the vent and causing blockage when the airflow intensity is low.

[0015] Preferably, a reinforcing plate is connected between the riser and the end plate, and multiple reinforcing plates are provided.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the reinforcing plate is connected between the ventilation duct and the riser frame, which improves the structural strength of the ventilation duct and ensures the stability of the ventilation duct during the operation of the hot air blower.

[0017] In summary, this application has the following beneficial technical effects: by blowing warm and dry air through a hot air blower into the pre-foamed particles in the mounting frame and the riser frame through a ventilation pipe, the pre-foamed particles that are being squeezed together are constantly disturbed by the dry hot air. This allows the pre-foamed particles that are squeezed in the middle to have space to evaporate the moisture on their own, thereby reducing the humidity of the raw material when it is conveyed into the molding equipment and improving the molding effect. It also has the advantage of reducing the humidity of the pre-foamed particles in the storage cage. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.

[0025] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 —3 provides further detailed description of this application.

[0026] A pre-foamed plastic storage cage includes a mounting frame 1; a heightening frame 2 is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 1, and a mesh 3 is fixedly mounted around the mounting frame 1 and the heightening frame 2, the mesh 3 being in a ring shape.

[0027] A discharge hopper 4 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting frame 1. A discharge valve 5 is fixedly installed on the discharge hopper 4. A ventilation pipe 6 is fixedly installed on the discharge hopper 4. The ventilation pipe 6 is placed in the riser frame 2. An end plate 7 is fixedly installed at the end of the ventilation pipe 6 away from the discharge hopper 4. A reinforcing plate 8 is connected between the riser frame 2 and the end plate 7. There are four reinforcing plates 8.

[0028] Ventilation duct 6 has ventilation openings (not shown in the figure), and anti-intrusion nets 9 are fixedly installed on the ventilation openings. There are multiple ventilation openings. A filter screen 10 is fixedly installed on one end of the ventilation duct 6 near the hopper. Three butterfly valves 11 are fixedly installed on the ventilation duct 6, and the valves divide the ventilation duct 6 into multiple sections.

[0029] A hot air blower 12 is fixedly installed on the mounting bracket 1, and the air outlet of the hot air blower 12 is connected to one end of the ventilation pipe 6 where a filter screen 10 is installed.

[0030] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: When the storage cage is working, the pre-foamed granules are conveyed into the storage cage from the top of the riser 2. When needed, the output of the pre-foamed granules is controlled by the discharge valve 5 on the discharge hopper 4. At the same time, the hot air blower 12 is working. After being filtered by the filter screen 10, the dry hot air flows through the ventilation pipe 6 and then escapes into the storage cage through the ventilation port. This causes the pre-foamed granules in the storage cage to be disturbed, and the pre-foamed granules that are squeezed against each other can evaporate their own moisture. At the same time, during storage, the opening and closing state of the three butterfly valves 11 is selected by the amount of pre-foamed granules stored, so that the pre-foamed granules cover the ventilation port from which the dry hot air escapes, improving the utilization rate of the dry hot air and achieving the purpose of reducing the humidity of the pre-foamed granules in the storage cage.

[0031] The hot air blower 12 blows warm, dry air through the ventilation pipe 6 into the pre-foamed particles in the mounting frame 1 and the riser frame 2. This causes the pre-foamed particles, which are being squeezed together, to be constantly disturbed by the dry, hot air. This allows the pre-foamed particles in the middle to have space to evaporate their moisture, reducing the humidity of the raw material when it is conveyed into the molding equipment and improving the molding effect. It has the advantage of reducing the humidity of the pre-foamed particles in the storage cage.
