Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photoinitiator crystallization preparation technology, specifically a cooling crystallization device for photoinitiator production. Background Technology
[0002] Photoinitiators, also known as photosensitizers or photocuring agents, are compounds that can absorb energy of a certain wavelength in the ultraviolet or visible light region, generate free radicals, cations, etc., and thus initiate monomer polymerization, cross-linking, and curing. The crystallization of photoinitiators is carried out in a special crystallization tank.
[0003] According to a search, Chinese patent document, publication number CN220736258U, discloses a novel photoinitiator crystallization device. This device uses a drive motor to rotate a stirring rod, which, via a mounting block, drives a connecting rod and a scraper plate to rotate. The scraper plate scrapes the inner wall of the crystallization tank, effectively helping the user remove crystals adhering to the inner wall and improving the crystallization effect. Furthermore, a servo motor drives a transmission gear, causing a rotating cylinder to extend and retract a threaded rod. This, in conjunction with the guide rods and guide cylinder on both sides, moves the cover plate upwards. The cover plate then moves the stirring rod out of the crystallization tank, facilitating subsequent cleaning of the photoinitiator crystallization device and improving user convenience. However, during use, the scraper blades are prone to wear and tear over time due to their interaction with the inner wall of the crystallizing tank. This wear can compromise the tight fit between the scraper and the crystallizing tank during scraping and installation, leading to reduced or no scraping effectiveness. Furthermore, disassembling and assembling the scraping components is cumbersome and time-consuming, hindering maintenance. The use of multiple motors and gear transmission components also results in high operating and maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

In addition, during the locking or scraping process, the reaction force generated by the spring can always keep the scraper in contact with the inner wall of the crystallizing cylinder, thereby improving the scraping effect and service life.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a cooling crystallization device for the production of photoinitiators, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. This utility model uses a starting motor to drive the stirring shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring rod and scraper to rotate. At this time, the raw materials can be stirred under the action of the stirring rod and scraper, improving the cooling uniformity and cooling efficiency. Moreover, during the rotation, the scraper scrapes the inner wall of the crystallization cylinder, reducing the difficulty of subsequent cleaning. When the scraper is pressed against the extrusion plate on the inner wall of the crystallization cylinder, the spring can easily drive the scraper to reset and generate vibration, thereby reducing the raw material residue on the scraper. Furthermore, during the locking or scraping process, the reaction force generated by the spring can always keep the scraper in contact with the inner wall of the crystallization cylinder, thereby improving the scraping effect and service life.

Then, the fixing nut on the fixing bolt is removed, and the limiting nut at the lower end of the stirring shaft is rotated to easily remove the scraper. This facilitates quick disassembly and assembly. Moreover, the use of an electric push rod and motor for power drive helps to reduce the overall use and maintenance costs of the device.

Furthermore, with the help of the first lug 102 and the mounting slots 101, it is convenient to install the electric push rod 2 and improves the stability and load-bearing capacity of the installation position.
[0031] Specifically, a sealing sleeve 301 is fixedly installed on the bottom side of the top cover 3, and a second auxiliary ear 302 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the top cover 3. An electric push rod 2 is fixedly installed between the second auxiliary ear 302, the first auxiliary ear 102, and the mounting groove 101. A feeding pipe 303 is provided on the top side of the top cover 3. The advantages are that the sealing sleeve 301 helps to improve the sealing effect when the top cover 3 is closed, and the second auxiliary ear 302 facilitates the installation of the electric push rod 2. In use, the raw material is transported from the feeding pipe 303 to the inside of the crystallizing cylinder 1, which facilitates processing.
[0032] Specifically, a connecting plate 501 is fixedly installed on the upper outer side of the stirring shaft 5. Three annularly spaced positioning holes 5011 are provided on the top side of the connecting plate 501. An external thread 502 is provided on the lower outer side of the stirring shaft 5. Several equally spaced stirring rods 6 are arranged in the middle of the outer side of the stirring shaft 5. The advantages are that the arrangement of several equally spaced stirring rods 6 in the middle of the outer side of the stirring shaft 5 facilitates improved cooling effect and uniformity. Furthermore, the connecting plate 501 and the positioning holes 5011 facilitate quick and easy positioning and installation of the fixing seat 7. The external thread 502 secures the limiting nut, improving the installation stability of the scraper frame 8.
[0033] Example 2:
[0034] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this is an improvement over the previous embodiment. Specifically, the fixing base 7 has a T-shaped structure, and the bottom side of the fixing base 7 has an insertion hole 701. The shape of the insertion hole 701 matches the stirring shaft 5, and three equally spaced fixing bolts 702 are fixedly installed on the top side of the fixing base 7. The fixing bolts 702 correspond one-to-one with the positioning holes 5011.

Moreover, during the rotation, the scraper 8 scrapes the inner wall of the crystallization cylinder 1, reducing the difficulty of subsequent cleaning. After the scraper 803 is pressed against the extrusion plate on the inner wall of the crystallization cylinder 1, the spring can easily drive the scraper 803 to reset and generate vibration, thereby reducing the raw material residue on the scraper 803. Furthermore, during the engagement or scraping process, the reaction force generated by the spring can always keep the scraper 803 in contact with the inner wall of the crystallizing cylinder 1, thereby improving the scraping effect and service life. Subsequently, when disassembly and maintenance are required, the electric push rod 2 is activated to push the top cover 3 to move, thereby exposing the stirring shaft 5 and the scraper 8. Then, the fixing nut on the fixing bolt 702 is removed, and after rotating the limit nut at the lower end of the stirring shaft 5, the scraper 8 can be easily removed directly, facilitating quick disassembly and assembly. Moreover, the use of the electric push rod 2 and the motor 4 for power drive helps to reduce the overall operating and maintenance costs of the device.
