[0002] During the processing of twin-screw extruders, molten material is prone to splashing from the vent, feed port, or die gaps due to differences in material flowability, sudden changes in die head pressure, or poor venting. Existing technology uses a cover structure installed at the discharge end of the twin-screw extruder, but this structure has the following shortcomings: the cover structure only serves to prevent splashing; the splashed material easily accumulates in the cooling water tank used to cool the extruded material for molding, making cleaning and recycling difficult. Utility Model Content

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of embodiments of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0031] In this embodiment of the invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this embodiment of the invention according to the specific circumstances.
[0032] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, a flow guiding and collecting device for preventing material splashing in a twin-screw extruder is provided, including a hollow cover 1. The hollow cover 1 has a first opening 11 at one end near the extruder 4. A collecting plate 2 is provided inside the hollow cover 1. The collecting plate 2 can vertically divide the inner cavity of the hollow cover 1 into a collecting cavity 12 and a clearance cavity 13. The inner wall of the collecting cavity 12 is provided with a smooth guiding surface 14. The smooth guiding surface 14 can guide the splashed material 5 to the collecting plate 2 and store it in the collecting cavity 12. The bottom of the clearance cavity 13 is provided with a second opening 15, which can avoid the extruded material being formed. By using a collecting plate 2 to divide the hollow cover 1 into a collecting cavity 12 for collecting splashed material 5 and a clearance cavity 13 for avoiding the extruded material being formed, the accumulation of splashed material 5 in the cooling water tank 3 is reduced. The smooth guide surface 14 helps the splashed material accumulate on the collecting plate 2. Compared with the prior art, this application utilizes two independent cavities to achieve material collection and clearance, which helps reduce the cleaning difficulty during operation and improves the recovery rate of splashed material 5. Specifically, during operation, the second opening 15 of the hollow cover 1 is placed above the cooling water tank 3 for receiving the extruded material 6, and the first opening 11 faces the die head end of the twin-screw extruder 4. Furthermore, the collecting plate 2 has a clearance notch 22 at one end near the die head end of the twin-screw extruder 4. The clearance notch 22 is used to avoid the extruded material 6 being formed, which helps to reduce the distance between the hollow cover 1 and the twin-screw extruder 4, further improving the recovery rate of splashed material 5.
[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the hollow cover 1 includes a connected end plate 16, a top plate 17, a front side plate 18, and a rear side plate 19. The end plate 16, the front side plate 18, and the rear side plate 19 surround and form a cavity structure with openings at the ends and bottom. The top plate 17 is detachably fixed to the top of the cavity structure. Specifically, the end plate 16, the front side plate 18, and the rear side plate 19 are fixed with screws and surround and form a U-shaped cavity structure.
[0034] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the device also includes several tensioning blocks 171. The fixed ends of the tensioning blocks 171 are connected to the front side plate 18 and the rear side plate 19 of the cover via screws, while the free ends act on the top of the top plate 17 of the cover. The top ends of the front side plate 18 and the rear side plate 19 are respectively provided with grooves, and a pair of grooves act on the bottom of the top plate 17 of the cover. Specifically, by loosening the screws and removing the clamping force of the free ends of the tensioning blocks 171 on the top plate 17 of the cover, the top plate 17 of the cover can be easily disassembled, which facilitates the cleaning of the inner cavity wall of the cover structure.
[0035] In one embodiment of this invention, the front side panel 18 of the cover is made of a transparent sheet. The transparent sheet allows the operator to easily observe the collection status of the collection chamber 12.
[0036] In one embodiment of this utility model, the top cover plate 17, the rear side cover plate 19, and the end cover plate 16 are all made of high-temperature resistant stainless steel. This further improves the smoothness of the collection cavity 12 and reduces the amount of splashed material 5 adhering to the inner wall of the collection cavity 12.
[0037] In one embodiment of this utility model, the top cover plate 17, the rear side cover plate 19, and the end cover plate 16 are all made of aluminum alloy, and their inner surfaces are coated with Teflon. This further improves the smoothness of the collection chamber 12 and reduces the amount of splashed material 5 adhering to the inner wall of the collection chamber 12.
[0038] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, it also includes several support structures, which are provided vertically along the inner wall of the hollow cover 1 and can provide vertical support for the aggregate plate 2.
[0039] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the support structure includes a plurality of support plates 191 spaced apart along the length of the hollow cover 1, and the aggregate plate 2 is detachably stacked on top of the support plates 191. By utilizing the spaced-apart support plates 191, the force-bearing area with the aggregate plate 2 is reduced, thereby increasing the pressure and improving the support strength.
[0040] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2As shown, the support structure has three layers, and each layer of the support structure includes six support plates 191. Specifically, the six support plates 191 are disposed opposite to each other on the two inner side walls of the hollow cover 1 and are fixed by screws. With the multi-layer structure design, adaptive adjustments can be made according to the actual extruder head height 4 and the factory space layout, which helps to broaden the applicability of this embodiment.
[0041] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a positioning protrusion 21, which is located at one end of the collecting plate 2 near the first opening 11. The support plate 191 has a slot 1911 that matches the positioning protrusion 21. The positioning protrusion 21 and the slot 1911 are used to fix the collecting plate 2, reducing the possibility of gaps between the collecting cavity 12 and the clearance cavity 13 caused by relative movement between the collecting plate 2 and the collecting cavity 12 during operation, and preventing splashed material 5 from sliding into the cooling water tank 3.
[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
