Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of oil production technology, and in particular to an oil forming apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of grease, the feeding mechanism injects the emulsified grease into the barrel of the forming mechanism through a high-pressure pump. As the material is continuously filled, the pressure inside the barrel gradually increases, causing the grease to gradually become semi-solid. Then, it is extruded through the extrusion nozzle of the forming mechanism to form block or sheet-like grease.

[0003] However, when producing different types of oils, the molding mechanism needs to be disassembled for manual cleaning, which is troublesome, labor-intensive, and affects work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application aims to address at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this application proposes a grease molding apparatus capable of automatically cleaning the molding mechanism without manual operation, thereby reducing labor intensity and improving work efficiency.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2This application provides an oil molding apparatus, including: a feeding mechanism 100, which is provided with a discharge pipe 110 and a return pipe 120, the discharge pipe 110 being provided with a first valve 130, and the return pipe 120 being provided with a second valve 140; a molding mechanism, including a material cylinder 210, a three-way valve 220, and an extrusion nozzle 230, the material cylinder 210 being provided with a feed pipe 211, the feed pipe 211 being provided with a third valve 212, the feed end of the three-way valve 220 being connected to the discharge pipe 110, and the three-way valve 230 being connected to the discharge pipe 110. The discharge end of cylinder 20 is connected to feed pipe 211 or return pipe 120. Extrusion nozzle 230 is located at the end of cylinder 210 away from feed pipe 211. Extrusion nozzle 230 is used to extrude grease. The cleaning mechanism includes cleaning water tank 310, cleaning pipe 320 and drain pipe 330. Cleaning pipe 320 is connected to cleaning water tank 310. Cleaning pipe 320 is connected to the feed end of three-way valve 220. Cleaning pipe 320 is equipped with a fourth valve 340. Drain pipe 330 is used to connect extrusion nozzle 230.

[0026] During grease molding production, the first valve 130 and the second valve 140 are opened, while the third valve 212 and the fourth valve 340 are closed. At this time, the feeding mechanism 100 outputs the emulsified grease from the discharge pipe 110, flows through the three-way valve 220 to the return pipe 120, and finally flows back to the feeding mechanism 100 to achieve reflux treatment. Then, the second valve 140 is closed, and the third valve 212 is opened. At this time, the grease flows through the three-way valve 220 to the feed pipe 211, and is then injected into the barrel 210 for molding. Finally, the grease is extruded from the extrusion nozzle 230, thus achieving the grease molding process. When cleaning is required, the extrusion nozzle 230 is connected to the drain pipe 330, then the first valve 130 and the second valve 140 are closed, and the first valve 130 and the third valve 212 are opened. At this time, the water in the cleaning water tank 310 is output from the cleaning pipe 320, flows through the three-way valve 220 to the feed pipe 211, and then passes through the material cylinder 210 and the extrusion nozzle 230 in sequence, finally draining from the drain pipe 330, thereby achieving the cleaning of the molding mechanism. The grease molding device described in this application embodiment can automatically clean the molding mechanism without manual operation, reducing labor intensity and improving work efficiency.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the barrel 210 is equipped with a heat exchange mechanism, which includes a hot water tank 240 and a coil. The hot water tank 240 is equipped with an outlet pipe 241 and a return pipe 242. The coil is disposed within the interlayer of the barrel 210, with its inlet and outlet located at opposite ends of the barrel 210. The inlet and outlet of the coil are connected to the outlet pipe 241 and the return pipe 242, respectively. A water pump 243 is installed on the outlet pipe 241. By providing the heat exchange mechanism, heat exchange can be performed on the barrel 210, keeping the grease at a constant temperature, thereby improving molding efficiency and product quality.

[0028] It is conceivable that the hot water tank 240 is equipped with a water supply pipe 244, and the water supply pipe 244 is equipped with a water supply valve 245. By providing the water supply pipe 244, water can be replenished to the hot water tank 240, ensuring the stability and reliability of its operation. Furthermore, the hot water tank 240 is equipped with a minimum level sensor, which is connected to the water supply valve 245. When the water level in the hot water tank 240 is low, the minimum level sensor is triggered, and the water supply valve 245 opens. At this time, water can automatically flow from the water supply pipe 244 into the hot water tank 240, thereby achieving automatic water replenishment and enhancing the degree of automation.

[0029] As is easily understood, the water supply pipe 244 is connected to a hot water pipe 246 and a cold water pipe 247. The hot water pipe 246 and cold water pipe 247 are respectively connected to the hot water system and the cold water system. Hot water pipe 246 and cold water pipe 247 are each equipped with a hot water valve 248 and a cold water valve 249. By adopting this structure, water supply can be adjusted according to different types of grease, allowing for the introduction of either hot or cold water to meet production requirements and improve product quality.

[0030] In this embodiment, the feed cylinder 210 includes multiple cylinders 213 connected in sequence, and the outlet and inlet ends of the coils in two adjacent cylinders 213 are connected by a connecting pipe 214. By adopting the above structure, the number of cylinders 213 can be selectively increased or decreased according to different types of oils to meet production requirements and improve product quality.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 The extrusion nozzle 230 includes a base plate 231, side plates 232, and a pressure plate 233. The side plates 232 are disposed on both sides of the base plate 231, and the pressure plate 233 is vertically positioned between and above the base plate 231. The base plate 231, side plates 232, and pressure plate 233 cooperate to form an extrusion chamber. By raising and lowering the pressure plate 233, the size of the extrusion chamber can be adjusted to produce greases of different specifications, thus expanding its application range.

[0032] Furthermore, an adjusting member 234 is provided on the top of the side plate 232, and a connecting rod 235 is provided between the adjusting members 234. A fixing post 236 is provided on the connecting rod 235, and the pressure plate 233 is connected to the fixing post 236. The adjusting member 234 includes a screw and a nut. The screw is rotatably mounted on the top of the side plate 232, and the nut is mounted on the connecting rod 235. The nut and screw are connected in a mating manner, and an operating handle is provided on the top of the screw. By rotating the screw with the operating handle, the nut causes the connecting rod 235 to rise or fall, thereby adjusting the height of the pressure plate 233 and thus adjusting the size of the extrusion chamber. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.

[0033] It should be noted that the lifting and lowering adjustment of the pressure plate 233 can also be achieved automatically through structures such as cylinders, thereby improving the degree of automation.

[0034] It should also be noted that the extrusion nozzle 230 can also be configured as a fixed extrusion chamber structure, and this application does not limit this.

[0035] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application.
