Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of open mill equipment, specifically to an open mill and a baffle for adjusting the discharge width. Background Technology

[0002] A two-roll mill, short for open mixing mill, is a type of rubber processing equipment mainly used for plasticizing, mixing, hot refining, sheeting, and feeding of rubber. The two-roll mill mainly consists of a frame, rollers, a drive system, and a pitch adjustment device. Its working parts are two horizontally arranged rollers, generally of the same size, which rotate relative to each other at different speeds driven by the drive system. Raw rubber or rubber compound is drawn into the gap between the two rollers as they rotate, undergoing strong shearing action to achieve plasticizing or mixing. The roller on the operator's side is called the front roller, which can be moved horizontally back and forth manually or electrically via the pitch adjustment device to adjust the roller gap and thus change the thickness of the formed rubber. The rear roller is fixed and cannot be moved forward or backward.

[0003] In addition to adjusting the rubber thickness, some open mills have two opposing baffles above the rollers. By adjusting the distance between the two baffles, the width of the rubber extrusion molding can be changed. However, to prevent the rubber from flowing out from both ends of the rollers, the baffles should be as close to the rollers as possible. If the distance between the two rollers changes, baffles of different sizes need to be replaced, which is not only cumbersome to operate, but also requires the preparation of multiple baffles, resulting in high costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides an open mill and a baffle for adjusting the discharge width. The baffle can be adjusted adaptively according to the roller spacing to ensure that both sides are always in close contact with the roller surface, and the open mill can adjust the discharge width.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A baffle for adjusting the discharge width of an open mill includes a main plate and two movable plates disposed on both sides of the main plate. The main plate is a T-shaped plate with grooves on both sides of the vertical part of the T-shaped plate. One side of the movable plate is slidably connected in the groove, and the other side has an arc surface with the radius of curvature of the arc surface adapted to the surface of the roller. A spring connects the main plate and the movable plate.

[0007] Preferably, the arc surface is provided with a plurality of balls that roll in contact with the roller surface.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the horizontal portion of the T-shaped plate is provided with a sliding groove, which is connected to the groove, and the upper end of the movable plate is slidably connected in the sliding groove.

[0009] Furthermore, a groove is provided on the side of the movable plate near the main board.

[0010] Furthermore, the two ends of the spring are respectively connected to groove one and groove two.

[0011] An open mill is equipped with the aforementioned baffles, wherein there are two baffles arranged opposite each other above two rollers.

[0012] Furthermore, a horizontal guide rail is provided above the baffle, the horizontal guide rail is parallel to the axis of the roller, the two ends of the horizontal guide rail are fixed on the frame, and the upper end of the main board is slidably connected to the horizontal guide rail.

[0013] Preferably, a screw is installed on the horizontal guide rail, and the screw has two sections of thread, left and right. The left and right sections of thread have opposite directions of rotation and the same pitch. The two baffles are respectively connected to the left and right sections of thread. One end of the screw is connected to a stepper motor, and the stepper motor is installed on the horizontal guide rail.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] The baffle of this utility model is set above the roller and between the gap. The width of the baffle is adjusted by the sliding cooperation between the main plate and the movable plate. The main plate and the movable plate are elastically connected, which can adapt well to the change of roller gap. The arc surface of the movable plate is always in contact with the roller surface. The horizontal guide rail can easily adjust the distance between the two baffles. When the open mill is running, the rubber material is well confined between the two baffles.
