Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of internal mixer technology, specifically to a novel top bolt fixing structure. Background Technology
[0002] When mixing rubber compounds in an internal mixer, a hydraulic cylinder drives an upper jack, which is fixedly connected to the piston rod, to apply pressure to the rubber compound to ensure the quality of the mixed rubber. This structure is an important component of the internal mixer. However, the old-style upper jack and piston rod fixing structure has many defects, revealing numerous problems during use and seriously affecting production.
[0003] The old-style structure uses a retaining ring mounted on the piston rod, and the entire assembly is pressed onto the top bolt via a flange to prevent axial movement. A mounting pin in the middle of the top bolt then secures the piston rod to the bolt, preventing circumferential movement. A sloping protective cover is installed at the top to prevent dust accumulation. After a period of use, the stress point is mainly on the pin, which deforms under stress. The two outer seals become ineffective, and only one internal seal exists, easily leading to leakage. Furthermore, due to the precision required for machining, if a gap appears at the retaining ring position, the piston rod's reciprocating up-and-down movement of the top bolt can cause excessive impact, potentially leading to piston rod breakage. The protective cover is a welded structure, which may detach over time, contaminating the rubber compound when lowered into the internal mixer and potentially damaging downstream equipment.

A pin is connected between the side wall of the upper plug and the adapter ring.
[0008] Furthermore, the adapter ring, connecting plate, and piston rod are integrally machined, which improves the fitting accuracy between the adapter ring, connecting plate, and piston rod, reduces errors during assembly, and improves the overall stability and reliability of the structure.
