Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mixing technology in plastic toy production, specifically to a horizontal mixing device for plastic toy production. Background Technology
[0002] Plastic toys are children's recreational products made from synthetic resins such as polypropylene and polyethylene through processes like injection molding and blow molding. Common types include building blocks, dolls, and water toys. The production of plastic toys requires mixing the materials, and horizontal mixing equipment is used for this process.
[0003] When mixing the production materials of plastic toys in a horizontal mixing device, the operator or automatic feeding system puts the pre-weighed plastic granules, color masterbatch, additives, etc. into the mixing chamber through the feeding port. The paddles push the materials from one end of the mixing chamber to the other end, realizing a large-scale overall movement to mix the raw materials. The mixed raw materials are discharged from the discharge port set at the bottom, completing the mixing of the production materials of plastic toys.
[0004] Traditional horizontal mixing devices used in plastic toy production often result in some raw materials being blocked by the mixing structure and remaining on the inner wall of the outer shell during the discharge process. This makes it difficult to discharge all the materials, leading to material residue that can affect the next batch of mixing. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a horizontal mixing device for the production of plastic toys, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model provides a horizontal mixing device for plastic toy production, comprising:
[0008] A base, with a U-shaped frame on top of the base, an outer shell for mixing plastics inside the U-shaped frame, a drive motor fixedly connected to the outside of the U-shaped frame, a transmission shaft fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor, and a feeding hopper on the top of the outer shell;
[0009] The moving mechanism includes a first cylinder fixedly connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame, two symmetrically distributed movable slots opened on the outer side of the outer shell, and two symmetrically distributed baffles movably connected to the outer side of the transmission shaft through bearings;
[0010] The lifting mechanism includes a U-shaped seat fixedly connected to the top of the base, a connecting block fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped frame, a second cylinder for lifting one end of the U-shaped frame provided on the top of the base, and a diagonal rod movably connected to the bottom of the U-shaped frame via a pin.
[0011] Preferably, the end of the drive shaft away from the drive motor passes through the U-shaped frame and the outer shell, and is movably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame through a bearing. Stirring blades distributed at equal intervals are fixedly connected to the outer side of the drive shaft.
[0012] Preferably, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer casing, and the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the first cylinder.
[0013] Preferably, each of the two baffles has two symmetrically distributed grooves on its opposite surfaces, and two sets of symmetrically distributed sliders are fixedly connected to the outer side of the outer shell, with the sliders slidably connected to the inner wall of the corresponding groove.
[0014] Preferably, a support seat is fixedly connected to the top of the base, and the top of the support seat contacts the bottom of the U-shaped frame.
[0015] Preferably, a discharge hopper communicating with the interior of the outer shell is provided on the outer side of the outer shell, and a material control valve is provided inside the discharge hopper.
[0016] Preferably, a fixed seat is fixedly connected to the outside of the second cylinder, the fixed seat is fixedly connected to the top of the base, a movable block is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the second cylinder, and the end of the inclined rod away from the U-shaped frame is movably connected to the outside of the movable block through a pin.
[0017] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages compared with the known prior art:
[0018] 1. By setting up a moving mechanism, after the plastic toy raw materials are mixed inside the shell, the first cylinder drives the shell to move downward, separating the stirring blades on the outside of the transmission shaft from the bottom of the shell. This prevents the stirring blades from blocking the mixed raw materials, ensuring that all the mixed raw materials can be discharged, avoiding the presence of raw material residue inside the mixing device, and facilitating the next mixing process.
[0019] 2. By setting up a lifting mechanism, when discharging the mixed raw materials inside the shell, the second cylinder pushes the movable block to move, and under the action of the inclined rod, one side of the shell is lifted, and the raw materials inside the shell can be quickly discharged through the discharge hopper, which greatly improves the discharge efficiency of plastic toys after mixing.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.
[0029] Example 1:
[0030] Reference Figure 1-4 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which discloses a horizontal mixing device for the production of plastic toys, comprising:
[0031] A base 1 is provided, a U-shaped frame 3 is provided on top of the base 1, a shell 2 for plastic mixing is provided inside the U-shaped frame 3, a drive motor 7 is fixedly connected to the outside of the U-shaped frame 3, a transmission shaft 8 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 7, and a feed hopper 4 is provided on the top of the shell 2.
[0032] The U-shaped frame 3 is used to support the inner shell 2. The drive motor 7 drives the transmission shaft 8 to rotate through the output shaft. The rotation of the transmission shaft 8 can cooperate with the stirring blade to stir and mix the raw materials inside the shell 2.
[0033] The moving mechanism 6 includes a first cylinder 506 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 3, two symmetrically distributed movable slots 605 opened on the outer side of the outer shell 2, and two symmetrically distributed baffles 601 movably connected to the outer side of the transmission shaft 8 through bearings.
[0034] The extension and retraction of the first cylinder 506 can drive the outer shell 2 to move upward or downward, so that the stirring blade does not stick to the inner wall of the outer shell 2, thus avoiding obstruction of the discharged raw materials and ensuring that all raw materials can be discharged.
[0035] Specifically, the end of the drive shaft 8 away from the drive motor 7 passes through the U-shaped frame 3 and the outer shell 2, and is movably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 3 through a bearing. Stirring blades with equal spacing are fixedly connected to the outside of the drive shaft 8.
[0036] The baffle 601 can block the movable groove 605, preventing the raw materials from being discharged through the movable groove 605 during mixing, thus ensuring the stability of the raw material mixing. The stirring blades can agitate the raw materials inside the outer shell 2, making them evenly mixed.
[0037] Specifically, a connecting plate 603 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer casing 2, and the connecting plate 603 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the first cylinder 506.
[0038] The connecting plate 603 allows the outer shell 2 to be connected to the telescopic end of the first cylinder 506, ensuring that the telescopic movement of the first cylinder 506 can drive the outer shell 2 to move up and down through the connecting plate 603.
[0039] Specifically, each of the two baffles 601 has two symmetrically distributed grooves 604 on its opposite surfaces, and two sets of symmetrically distributed sliders 606 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the outer shell 2. The sliders 606 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the corresponding grooves 604.
[0040] The position of the baffle 601 is limited by the sliding groove 604 and the slider 606 to ensure the stability of the connection between the baffle 601 and the outer shell 2. When the drive shaft 8 rotates, the baffle 601 will not rotate with the drive shaft 8, and can continuously and stably block the movable groove 605.
[0041] Example 2:
[0042] Reference Figure 1-4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that:
[0043] The lifting mechanism 5 includes a U-shaped seat 507 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a connecting block 508 fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped frame 3, a second cylinder 602 for lifting one end of the U-shaped frame 3 provided on the top of the base 1, and a diagonal rod 503 movably connected to the bottom of the U-shaped frame 3 via a pin.
[0044] Under the action of the U-shaped seat 507 and the connecting block 508, the U-shaped frame 3 can be connected to the base 1, so that when the other side of the U-shaped frame 3 is lifted, the U-shaped frame 3 can be tilted, making it convenient to discharge the raw materials inside the outer shell 2 through the discharge hopper 501.
[0045] Specifically, a support base 502 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and the top of the support base 502 contacts the bottom of the U-shaped frame 3.
[0046] The support base 502 provides support from the bottom of the U-shaped frame 3, and together with the U-shaped base 507 and the connecting block 508, ensures the stability of the U-shaped frame 3.
[0047] Specifically, a discharge hopper 501 communicating with the interior of the outer shell 2 is provided on the outside of the outer shell 2, and a material control valve is provided inside the discharge hopper 501.
[0048] The discharge hopper 501 facilitates the discharge of raw materials inside the outer shell 2. The opening and closing of the discharge hopper 501 is controlled by the material control valve.
[0049] Specifically, a fixed seat 505 is fixedly connected to the outside of the second cylinder 602, and the fixed seat 505 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. A movable block 504 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the second cylinder 602. The end of the diagonal rod 503 away from the U-shaped frame 3 is movably connected to the outside of the movable block 504 through a pin.
[0050] The second cylinder 602 can be installed and fixed by the fixed base 505. The second cylinder 602 can push the movable block 504 to move. The movement of the movable block 504 pushes one side of the U-shaped frame 3 to lift through the inclined rod 503, so that the outer shell 2 is tilted.
[0051] The remaining structure is the same as that in Example 1.
[0052] The workflow of this utility model is as follows:
[0053] During the production of plastic toys, the raw materials enter the interior of the outer shell 2 through the feed hopper 4. The drive motor 7 drives the stirring blade to rotate through the transmission shaft 8. The rotating stirring blade stirs the raw materials inside the outer shell 2 to mix them. After mixing is completed, the first cylinder 506 retracts and drives the outer shell 2 to move downward. The downward movement of the outer shell 2 separates the bottom of the stirring blade from the bottom of the inner shell 2.
[0054] The discharge hopper 501 is opened by controlling the material control valve, the second cylinder 602 extends, and the extension end of the second cylinder 602 pushes the movable block 504 to move. The movement of the movable block 504 pushes one side of the U-shaped frame 3 to lift through the inclined rod 503, thereby tilting the outer shell 2 inside the U-shaped frame 3. The mixed raw material inside the outer shell 2 is discharged through the discharge hopper 501, completing the discharge of the mixed raw material.
[0055] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the protection scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
