Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of color masterbatch technology, specifically to color masterbatch filling equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Color masterbatch is a type of plastic colorant. During the production process, the finished color masterbatch is usually filled into bottles for easy storage and transportation. Color masterbatch processing involves mixing a small amount of masterbatch with uncolored resin to achieve the designed pigment concentration in the resin or product. Currently, color masterbatch is shipped in solid form. To facilitate packaging, storage, and transportation, it is cut into small segments and canned. Most small businesses currently use manual canning, primarily because canning lines are too expensive. However, manual canning is inefficient. With rising labor costs, finding a balance between machine and labor costs is crucial for businesses to maintain profits. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the structure of current canning lines to reduce packaging costs. Utility Model Content

A filling clamp 6 is disposed on the electric conveyor belt 3. The feeding tank, the electric conveyor belt 3, the weighing component, and the filling clamp 6 are all electrically connected to the PLC controller 1.

[0017] In use, the electric conveyor belt 3 feeds the filling bottle directly below the filling funnel 4, the filling clamp 6 holds the bottle, and the material is fed into the weighing assembly through the feeding tank. After weighing, the feeding tank stops feeding, and the weighing assembly pours the weighed masterbatch into the filling funnel 4. The masterbatch falls from the filling head 5 into the filling bottle along the filling funnel 4. This utility model can improve the filling efficiency of masterbatch, reduce the packaging cost of enterprises, and is suitable for production and use by most small and medium-sized enterprises.

[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the feeding tank includes a tank body 21 fixed to the frame by a material rack, and a feeding cylinder 22 fixed to the bottom of the tank body 21. The top of the tank body 21 has a feeding inlet, and the feeding cylinder 22 has a connection port 23 communicating with the bottom of the tank body 21. Both ends of the feeding cylinder 22 are sealed, and a discharge port 24 is provided at the bottom. A feeding motor 25 is fixed to one end of the feeding cylinder 22, and a feeding shaft 26 is rotatably connected inside the feeding cylinder 22. The feeding shaft 26 is equipped with... The feeding vane 27 is connected to the feeding shaft 26 by the feeding motor 25. The feeding shaft 26, the inner wall of the feeding cylinder 22, and the feeding vane 27 together form a spiral feeding channel. The feeding channel connects the connection port 23 and the discharge port 24. In this embodiment, the masterbatch in the tank 21 falls into the connection port 23 under the action of gravity. The feeding motor 25 drives the feeding shaft 26 to rotate the feeding vane 27, which feeds the masterbatch in the spiral feeding channel and delivers the masterbatch to the weighing component.

[0019] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the weighing assembly includes a vertically arranged weighing cylinder 71, a circular weighing plate 72 rotatably connected inside the weighing cylinder 71, a weighing shaft 73 with one end extending into the weighing cylinder 71 to fix the circular weighing plate 72, a pouring motor 74 fixed to one side of the weighing cylinder 71, an upper weighing seat 75 used to install the weighing cylinder 71, a lower weighing seat 76 provided opposite the upper weighing seat 75, multiple weighing sensors 77 used to connect the upper weighing seat 75 and the lower weighing seat 76, and is used to transfer the weight of the weighing plate 72 into the weighing cylinder 71. The weighing base 76 is fixed inside the filling funnel 4 using a weighing fixing frame 78, and the weighing cylinder 71 is located directly below the discharge port 24. In this embodiment, during weighing, the circular weighing plate 72 is placed horizontally, and the masterbatch falls from the discharge port 24 into the weighing cylinder 71. The masterbatch is weighed by the weighing sensor 77. After weighing is completed, the feeding tank stops feeding, and the pouring motor 74 drives the weighing shaft 73 to rotate the circular weighing plate 72 upward by 90 degrees, so that the masterbatch in the weighing cylinder 71 falls into the filling funnel 4.

[0020] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the filling fixture 6 includes two symmetrically arranged arc-shaped clamping plates 61, an electric push rod 62 for driving the arc-shaped clamping plates 61 to move back and forth, a lifting seat 63 for mounting the electric push rod 62, and an electric push rod 64 for driving the lifting seat 63 to rise or fall. The electric push rod 64 is mounted on the frame on the side of the electric conveyor belt 3 via a mounting base. Anti-slip pads 65 and pressure sensors 66 are respectively provided on the opposite surfaces of the two arc-shaped clamping plates 61. In this embodiment, the electric push rod 62 drives the two arc-shaped clamping plates 61 to move closer to each other, clamping both sides of the filling bottle. When the pressure sensor 66 senses pressure, the electric push rod 62 stops driving, and the electric push rod 64 drives the lifting seat 63 to lift the filling bottle, so that the bottom end of the filling head 5 approaches or extends into the bottle mouth. The anti-slip pads 65 prevent the filling bottle from falling off after clamping.

Multiple sliding grooves are provided on each adjustment frame 82, and sliding rods 83 are slidably connected within these grooves. One end of each sliding rod 83 is fixed to a limiting frame 81. Multiple limiting threaded holes are provided within the sliding grooves along their length. A connecting threaded hole 831 is provided on each sliding rod 83. The limiting threaded hole and the connecting threaded hole 831 are connected by bolts. In this embodiment, the bolted connection between the opposing limiting threaded holes and the connecting threaded hole 831 allows for adjustable spacing between the adjustment frames 82, enabling the limiting of filling bottles with different outer diameters.
