Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of TPU film extrusion molding, specifically a TPU film extrusion head. Background Technology

[0002] TPU film extrusion molding is a process in which TPU granules are heated and melted in an extruder, sheared and plasticized by a screw, and then formed into a sheet-like melt through the flow channel of the extruder head. After cooling, shaping, traction, and winding, a continuous film is formed. However, traditional extruder heads do not have heat dissipation capabilities, meaning that the film needs to cool naturally during extrusion molding. This leads to the need for strict control of the film extrusion speed. If the extrusion speed is too fast, the film has not yet completely solidified, and the friction between the film and the flow channel wall of the extruder head during extrusion can easily cause damage to the film after extrusion, affecting the quality of the film molding. Therefore, it is necessary to slow down the film extrusion speed, which in turn affects the efficiency of film extrusion molding. Utility Model Content

The front end of the housing is provided with a plurality of through slots corresponding to the heat dissipation channels. The airflow discharged from the first air inlet pipe enters the heat dissipation cavity and the heat dissipation channel and is discharged through the through slots.

[0010] Preferably, the front end of the mold has an installation groove, a pressure roller is rotatably connected in the installation groove, and a pad layer fixed in the installation groove is provided on the rear side of the pressure roller.

[0011] Preferably, the pressure roller is hollow inside, and a vent pipe communicating with the internal cavity is fixed at both ends of the pressure roller.

[0025] One embodiment of this utility model:

[0026] Reference Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a TPU film extrusion head, including an extrusion die, a rear cover plate 20, a side plate 30, and a heat dissipation structure. The extrusion die is used for TPU film extrusion molding. The extrusion die includes a mold 10 arranged symmetrically on the upper and lower sides. A flow channel 12 is formed between the upper and lower molds 10 for the molten film material to pass through. The mold 10 is inclined from back to front towards the flow channel 12, so that the flow channel 12 gradually narrows from back to front into a constricted shape. Side plates 30 are fixed on the left and right sides of the extrusion die, and the side plates 30 are used to block the openings on the left and right sides of the flow channel 12.

[0027] The heat dissipation assembly has two parts, which are fixed to the upper and lower sides of the extrusion die respectively. The heat dissipation assembly includes a housing 40 and a heat dissipation structure. The left and right sides of the housing 40 abut against the left and right side plates 30 respectively. The left and right sides of the housing 40 are fixed to the side plates 30 by bolts. A heat dissipation cavity 43 is formed between the housing 40 and the surface of the mold 10. The heat dissipation structure includes a heat dissipation plate 52 and multiple equidistant heat dissipation fins 50. The heat dissipation fins 50 are fixed on the heat dissipation plate 52. The heat dissipation plate 52 abuts against the upper side wall of the housing 40. The lower edge of the heat dissipation fins 50 abuts against the surface of the mold 10.

[0028] The rear cover plate 20 is fixed to the rear end of the extrusion die and is used to block the rear end of the flow channel 12.

[0029] The heat dissipation assembly also includes a first air inlet pipe 41, which is fixed to the housing 40 and one end is connected to the heat dissipation cavity 43. The other end of the first air inlet pipe 41 is connected to an air pump. A heat dissipation channel 51 is formed between adjacent heat dissipation fins 50. A plurality of through slots 42 corresponding to the heat dissipation channel 51 are opened at the front end of the housing 40. The airflow discharged from the first air inlet pipe 41 enters the heat dissipation cavity 43 and the heat dissipation channel 51 and is discharged through the through slots 42.

[0030] The mold 10 has an installation groove 16 at its front end, and a pressure roller 11 is rotatably connected inside the installation groove 16. A pad 13, made of rubber, is fixed to the rear side of the pressure roller 11 within the installation groove 16. The lower end face of the upper pad 13 is flush with the lower end face of the upper mold 10, and the upper end face of the lower pad 13 is flush with the upper end face of the lower mold 10. The outer periphery of the upper pressure roller 11 is tangent to the lower end face of the upper pad 13, and the outer periphery of the lower pressure roller 11 is tangent to the upper end face of the lower pad 13. The pressure roller 11 is hollow inside, and both ends of the pressure roller 11 are fixed with pads inside. A vent pipe 15 is connected to the cavity and passes through the left and right side walls of the mounting groove 16. The front end of the mold 10 is fixed with a fastener 14 by bolts. The vent pipe 15 is rotatably connected between the fastener 14 and the front end of the mold 10. A cover 31 is fixed on the side plate 30. A through hole 33 corresponding to the vent pipe 15 is opened on the side plate 30. The vent pipe 15 passes through the through hole 33 on the side plate 30 and is connected to the cover 31. A second air inlet pipe 32 connected to the vent pipe 15 is fixed on the cover 31. One of the second air inlet pipes 32 is connected to an air pump.

[0031] A heat insulation layer 60 is fixed on the surface of the mold 10 and located in the heat dissipation cavity 43. The heat insulation layer 60 is made of high temperature resistant rubber.

[0032] A connecting pipe 21 that communicates with the flow channel 12 is fixed on the rear cover plate 20.

[0033] In use, the connecting pipe 21 is connected to the extruder. After the raw material is sheared and melted by the screw of the extruder, it is squeezed into the flow channel 12 through the connecting pipe 21 and finally extruded from the front end of the flow channel 12 to form a film.

[0034] During the film extrusion process, the air pump supplies air into the first air inlet pipe 41 and the second air inlet pipe 32. The airflow passes through the heat dissipation channel 51, which accelerates the heat transfer of the heat dissipation fins 50, thereby accelerating the cooling speed of the front end of the mold 10. This increases the cooling speed of the molten material as it passes through the front end of the flow channel 12, thereby accelerating the film forming speed and improving the film extrusion forming efficiency.

[0035] When the airflow passes through the pressure roller 11, it can keep the pressure roller 11 in a cooled state. Through the rolling extrusion of the pressure roller 11, the film forming speed can be further accelerated, thereby further improving the film extrusion forming efficiency.

[0036] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications to the above embodiments can be made without departing from the overall spirit and concept of this utility model. All such modifications fall within the protection scope of this utility model. The protection scheme of this utility model is defined by the appended claims.
