[0002] The full name of color masterbatch is color masterbatch, which is a new type of special coloring granules for polymer materials. It is mainly used in plastic granules. Color masterbatch is composed of pigments, dyes or color powders mixed with carriers and additives. Generally, color masterbatch is made by mixing pigments with plastic raw materials, heating the mixture and sending it into an extruder to form color masterbatch. The color masterbatch is then sent into an injection molding machine to produce colored plastics.
[0003] Currently, Chinese patent CN216831688U discloses a structure for a color masterbatch mixer for plastic bottle production, including a mixing box. A feed pipe and a fixed column are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mixing box, and a discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the periphery of the mixing box. A stirring rod is installed inside the mixing box to stir the materials.
[0004] The aforementioned patents still have shortcomings. The production of color masterbatch requires a strict pigment ratio; otherwise, the produced color masterbatch is prone to color differences. The aforementioned mixers require operators to accurately adjust the ratio of pigments and plastic raw materials, which places high demands on operators and can easily affect production efficiency.

By setting up the pigment tank 10 and achieving automatic discharge through the automatic discharge component 12, the purpose of automatically adding pigment is achieved, which increases the stability of the ratio between pigments and plastic raw materials and ensures product quality.
[0028] The automatic discharge assembly 12 includes valve assembly 13, weighing assembly 15, and valve assembly 2 14. Valve assembly 13 is located at the bottom of the pigment box 10.

[0030] Valve assembly 13 includes linear electric cylinder 17 and baffle 18. The bottom of pigment box 10 has a discharge port 19, and the baffle 18 has a discharge port 20. The linear electric cylinder 17 drives the baffle 18 to move, so that the discharge port 19 and the discharge port 20 overlap or separate. By driving the baffle 18 to move through the linear electric cylinder 17, when the discharge port 20 moves to the bottom of the discharge port 19, the pigment flows out.
