Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of modified plastics production technology, specifically to a heating and melting device for modified plastics production. Background Technology
[0002] Modified plastics refer to new materials obtained by improving the properties of ordinary plastics through physical or chemical methods, exhibiting superior performance in terms of strength, toughness, and heat resistance. Compared to ordinary plastics, modified plastics require heating and melting before molding, thus placing higher demands on the performance of the heating and melting equipment. With the continuous expansion of applications for modified plastics, the requirements for their production efficiency and quality are also increasing. As a key piece of equipment in modified plastic production, the heating and melting equipment's heating efficiency and temperature control capabilities directly affect product quality and production energy consumption. However, existing heating and melting equipment has certain limitations in practical use, particularly in terms of heating uniformity and energy consumption control, which still require improvement.
[0003] Currently, most commercially available heating and melting devices use traditional resistance heating. While this method is simple in structure, it suffers from uneven heat distribution, which can easily lead to localized overheating or material degradation. Furthermore, because modified plastics typically have high melting temperatures, traditional devices consume a lot of energy during the heating process and lose heat quickly, further increasing production costs.
[0004] Based on the above, this utility model proposes a heating and melting device for the production of modified plastics, which can effectively solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a heating and melting device for the production of modified plastics. This heating and melting device for the production of modified plastics achieves uniform heat distribution and reduces the occurrence of localized overheating through a combination of a multi-layer heat-conducting structure and a corrugated inner wall. The variable-pitch design of the spiral propulsion mechanism solves the problem of unstable equipment operation when handling high-viscosity materials. The addition of a preheating chamber further improves the heating efficiency of the device.

[0012] Preferably, the spiral propulsion mechanism includes a motor, a central shaft, and multiple spiral blades. The central shaft extends horizontally through the heating cavity, and the spiral blades are evenly distributed along the axial direction of the central shaft. The spacing between adjacent spiral blades gradually decreases from the feed end to the discharge end. The motor is fixed to the outside of the heating cavity, and the output end of the motor is connected to the central shaft via a coupling.
