Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aerosol production technology, specifically a waste aerosol recycling device. Background Technology
[0002] Aerosols often produce defective products during production, requiring venting for safety reasons. This typically involves a worker holding an awl and piercing the valve or canister, then quickly removing the awl and aligning the canister opening with a prepared container. Once the contents are vented, the aerosol is discarded. The drawbacks of this manual method are: the gas / liquid is sprayed directly from the canister, requiring workers to take strict protective measures, and there is a waste of the aerosol.
[0003] Therefore, patent document CN219507649U discloses a device for puncturing and recovering liquid from discarded aerosol cans. A sleeve is vertically mounted on a platform and its bottom is sealed by a base plate with a bottom through-hole. The inner diameter of the sleeve matches the outer diameter of the aerosol can. A support plate for supporting the aerosol can is located near the bottom of the sleeve, and a sealing gasket is provided on the upper surface of the support plate. The rear end of the clamping mechanism's bracket is connected to a column, and the clamping head is located at the front end of the bracket via a clamping cylinder. A puncturing mechanism is located at the bottom of the sleeve, and a puncturing needle extends vertically into the sleeve through the bottom through-hole. A puncturing cylinder mounted outside the base plate is connected to the puncturing needle. The gas / liquid recovery container of the gas / liquid recovery unit is connected to the outer side of the sleeve, located below the support plate, via a gas / liquid conduit. This device replaces manual puncturing of aerosol cans for liquid recovery, avoiding bodily harm caused by aerosol spillage. It is simple to operate and effectively improves recovery efficiency.
[0004] Although the existing technology replaces manual operation with machinery, the opening at the top of the sleeve is left open when the aerosol can is removed from the sleeve during use. When the aerosol can is pulled out, the residual liquid and gas inside the aerosol can and the sleeve will diffuse through the top of the sleeve, thus affecting the working environment. Therefore, a waste aerosol recycling device is proposed to optimize the existing technology. Utility Model Content

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.
[0026] Please see Figures 1-5 In this embodiment of the present invention, a waste aerosol recovery device includes a sleeve 1, which is vertically fixedly connected to a workbench 2.

A [missing information - likely a device name] is provided above the sleeve 1. The movable seat 8 has a groove 9 at its bottom that matches the sealing plate 6. The sealing plate 6 is slidably connected to the groove 9. The movable seat 8 has two symmetrical feeding holes 10. The spacing between the feeding holes 10 is equal to the spacing between the discharge pipe 7 and the sleeve 1. Each feeding hole 10 is fixedly connected to a rubber sleeve 11, which can provide sealing and damping. Guide rods 12 are symmetrically slidably connected to both sides of the movable seat 8. The guide rods 12 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the workbench 2 through the upright plate 13.
[0027] The aerosol can 15 can be inserted into the sleeve 1 through the feeding hole 10 for piercing and aerosol collection. At the same time, it can be lifted into the feeding hole 10. By switching the movement of the movable seat 8, the pierced aerosol can 15 can be moved to the discharge pipe 7 to discharge the aerosol can into the collection chamber 5. There is no need to lift the aerosol can 15. At the same time, the sleeve 1 is sealed by the movable seat 8, thereby avoiding the problem of residual aerosol spreading inside the aerosol can 15 when it is pulled out, and also avoiding the problem of the top of the sleeve 1 being open.
[0028] By setting two feeding holes 10, the aerosol can 15 can be pre-filled in the other feeding hole 10 during aerosol recovery, forming a dual-station operation and increasing work efficiency.
[0029] The compression fixing mechanism 3 includes a support plate 14, which is fixedly connected to the bottom inner side of the sleeve 1. A sealing gasket 16 adapted to the aerosol can 15 is fixedly connected to the support plate 14. The sealing gasket 16 is made of flexible rubber to improve the sealing between the front end of the aerosol can 15 and the sealing gasket 16. The puncture discharge mechanism 4 includes a conduit 17, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sleeve 1 and communicates with the sleeve 1.

[0030] The compression fixing mechanism 3 also includes a column 18, a sliding sleeve 19, a locking bolt 20, a bracket 21, a compression cylinder 22, and a compression head 23.
[0031] The column 18 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the workbench 2. The sliding sleeve 19 is slidably sleeved on the column 18. The locking bolt 20 is threadedly connected to the sliding sleeve 19. The sliding sleeve 19 has a threaded hole for the locking bolt 20 to be threadedly connected. The locking bolt 20 is inserted into the sliding sleeve 19 and abuts against the column 18. The bracket 21 is fixedly connected to the front side of the sliding sleeve 19. The pressing cylinder 22 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the bracket 21 and its telescopic end slides through the bracket 21. The pressing head 23 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the pressing cylinder 22. The pressing head 23 corresponds to the aerosol can 15 inserted into the sleeve 1.
[0032] The puncture and discharge mechanism 4 also includes a puncture cylinder 25, a puncture needle 26, and a needle holder 27.
[0033] The puncture cylinder 25 is fixedly connected to the blind plate at the bottom of the sleeve 1. The telescopic end of the puncture cylinder 25 slides through the blind plate and is fixedly connected to the needle holder 27. The puncture needle 26 is installed on the needle holder 27. The puncture needle 26 corresponds to the aerosol can 15 inserted into the sleeve 1. The puncture needle 26 is a copper needle and is arranged off-center so that the puncture needle 26 can puncture the position of the aerosol can 15 off the nozzle, reducing the difficulty of puncturing.
[0034] Supported by the column 18, the sliding sleeve 19 can slide on the column 18 and be fixed with the locking bolt 20, thereby adjusting the installation height of the bracket 21 and facilitating the control of the pressing cylinder 22 to drive the pressing head 23 to press against the aerosol can 15.
[0035] The clamping cylinder 22 drives the clamping head 23 to press the aerosol can 15 onto the sealing gasket 16 on the support plate 14, forming a compression and fixing effect. The puncture cylinder 25 pushes the puncture needle frame 27, thereby puncturing the fixed aerosol can 15 through the puncture needle 26. At the same time, the discharged gas and liquid are discharged through the conduit 17, thereby recovering the aerosol in the aerosol can 15. The entire puncture operation is located inside the sleeve 1, which effectively avoids the release of aerosol during puncture. At the same time, the entire operation is carried out by the cylinder, reducing the use of manpower.
[0036] The collection chamber 5 is equipped with a collection bucket 28, which corresponds to the discharge pipe 7. The front side of the collection chamber 5 is open, and a matching closed door 24 is provided at the opening. The closed door 24 is hinged at the opening and is equipped with a handle and a lock.
[0037] The collected aerosol can 15 is received in the collection chamber 5 by the collection bucket 28, which facilitates its subsequent removal.
[0038] Both the clamping cylinder 22 and the puncturing cylinder 25 are connected to an external air source and control components.
[0039] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0040] In use, the sliding sleeve 19 can slide on the column 18 and be fixed with the locking bolt 20, thereby adjusting the installation height of the bracket 21 so that the height of the pressing cylinder 22 and the pressing head 23 is appropriate. At this time, the aerosol can 15 is inserted into one of the feeding holes 10, and then the moving seat 8 is pushed so that the moving seat 8 moves through the guide rod 12. At the same time, the sealing plate 6 slides in the sliding groove 9. When the sealing plate 6 is pressed against one end of the sliding groove 9, the feeding hole 10 corresponds to the sleeve 1. The aerosol can 15 is then inserted into the sleeve 1. The pressing cylinder 22 drives the pressing head 23 to press the aerosol can 15 onto the sealing gasket 16 on the support plate 14, forming a pressing and fixing effect. The puncture cylinder 25 pushes the puncture needle frame 27, thereby puncturing the fixed aerosol can 15 through the puncture needle 26. Simultaneously, the discharged gas and liquid are discharged through the conduit 17, thereby recovering the aerosol in the aerosol can 15. During this process, an aerosol can 15 is inserted into another feeding hole 10. Then, the pressing cylinder 22 and the puncturing cylinder 25 are reset. At this time, the recovered aerosol can 15 is pulled up, so that the aerosol can 15 is still inserted into the feeding hole 10. Then, the moving seat 8 is pushed in the opposite direction, so that the other feeding hole 10 corresponds to the sleeve 1. At this time, the recovered aerosol can 15 corresponds to the discharge pipe 7. The squeezing and fixing mechanism 3 and the puncturing and discharging mechanism 4 are controlled to perform the recovery operation. At the same time, the recovered aerosol can 15 is inserted into the discharge pipe 7 until it is completely removed from the feeding hole 10. A new aerosol can 15 is inserted into the feeding hole 10. The operation is repeated to recover the aerosol.
