[0025] See appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 6 As shown, a water ring lifting device for a blown film machine includes a base 1, a lifting frame 2, and a water ring. The base 1 has a first through hole 11, and a vertical frame 12 is provided on the base 1. The vertical frame 12 is provided with a lifting guide rail 13 and a servo motor 14. The lifting frame 2 is slidably connected to the lifting guide rail 13. The servo motor 14 is connected to a lifting screw 141, which is threadedly connected to the lifting frame 2. The lifting frame 2 has a second through hole 21 that penetrates vertically through it. A water ring is provided on the lifting frame 2. A water cooling chamber 34 is formed inside the water ring. A third through hole 36 that penetrates vertically through the water ring is formed in the middle of the water cooling chamber 34. The third through hole 36, the second through hole 21, and the first through hole 11 are arranged opposite each other from top to bottom. The third through hole 36, the second through hole 21, and the first through hole 11 are respectively used for the film to pass through. The lifting screw 141 extends vertically.

[0026] In this embodiment, the water ring includes a shell 31, a first partition plate 32, and a second partition plate 33. Both the first partition plate 32 and the second partition plate 33 are annular structures. The first partition plate 32 and the second partition plate 33 are disposed inside the shell 31. The first partition plate 32 and the second partition plate 33 are disposed inside and outside the shell. A water exchange chamber 35 is formed between the first partition plate 32 and the inner sidewall of the shell 31. A water cooling chamber 34 is formed between the first partition plate 32 and the second partition plate 33. The water exchange chamber 35 is connected to the water cooling chamber 34. A third through hole 36 is formed in the second partition plate 33.

[0027] In this embodiment, an inlet pipe 37 and an outlet pipe 38 are respectively provided on the outer side wall of the housing 31. The inlet pipe 37 and the outlet pipe 38 are respectively connected to the water exchange chamber 35. A switch valve 39 is provided on both the inlet pipe 37 and the outlet pipe 38. The inlet pipe 37 and the outlet pipe 38 are arranged symmetrically on the left and right sides, which facilitates the input of cold water and the output of hot water.

[0028] Both the water-cooling chamber 34 and the water exchange chamber 35 have an annular structure.

[0029] In this embodiment, the lifting frame 2 is provided with multiple fixed seats 22, which are arranged in a ring on the outside of the housing 31. The fixed seats 22 are provided with fixing screws 221, which abut against and press against the housing 31.

[0030] An automatic gas filling device is installed on the lifting frame 2. The automatic gas filling device includes a mounting frame 41, an adjusting seat 42, and a gas filling pipe 43. The mounting frame 41 is installed on the lifting frame 2. An adjusting screw 44 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 41. The adjusting screw 44 is set in the horizontal direction and is threadedly connected to the adjusting seat 42. The gas filling pipe 43 is installed on the adjusting seat 42. The gas filling pipe 43 is located above the water ring. By rotating the adjusting screw 44, the gas filling pipe 43 can be moved closer to or away from the water ring. An adjusting handwheel 441 is fitted on the adjusting screw 44.

[0031] In this embodiment, the mounting bracket 41 has a sliding groove 411 that extends along the length of the adjusting screw 44, and the bottom of the adjusting seat 42 has a sliding block 421 that slides within the sliding groove 411.

[0032] In this embodiment, the specific usage process is as follows: First, adjust the height position of the lifting frame 2 according to the actual situation. Then, start the servo motor 14, which drives the lifting screw 141 to rotate, thereby moving the lifting frame 2 and the water ring up and down until they reach the set position. Then, open the switch valve of the water inlet pipe 37 and supply water to the water exchange chamber 35 through the water inlet pipe 37. The water exchange chamber 35 supplies water to the water cooling chamber 34, so that the water in the water cooling chamber 34 surrounds the third through hole 36.

[0033] The blown film machine blows a thin film downwards. After the film bubble is output from the mold, it moves downwards and enters the third through hole 36 in this embodiment after passing through the air ring. At this time, the water in the water-cooling chamber 34 exchanges heat with the film bubble to cool it. After cooling, the film bubble continues to move downwards and passes through the second through hole 21 and the first through hole 11 in sequence to complete the cooling of the film bubble. When the film bubble is cooled, the diameter of the film bubble will change. At this time, a sensor is set in this embodiment. The sensor detects the fluctuation of the size of the film bubble. When the diameter of the film bubble changes, it will respond to the system to replenish it. The air supply pipe 43 adds or subtracts air to the film bubble to maintain the stability of the size of the film bubble.

[0034] It can also move the water ring up and down during the cooling process.

[0035] After a period of use, the water temperature in the water-cooled chamber 34 will rise, at which point the water in the water-cooled chamber 34 needs to be replaced. In this way, the valve 39 of the inlet pipe 37 and the outlet pipe 38 is opened simultaneously, the hot water in the water-cooled chamber 34 enters the water exchange chamber 35, and then is discharged through the outlet pipe 38. Cold water is introduced into the inlet pipe 37, and then the cold water is replenished to the water-cooled chamber 34 through the water exchange chamber 35.

[0036] By rotating the adjusting handwheel 441, the adjusting screw 44 is rotated, thereby causing the adjusting seat 42 to move closer to or away from the water ring and membrane bubble, and causing the air supply pipe 43 to move closer to or away from the water ring and membrane bubble, so as to accommodate membrane bubbles of different diameters.

[0037] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model in any way. Any person skilled in the art can make more possible variations and modifications to the technical solution of this utility model, or modify it into equivalent embodiments, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the concept of this utility model without departing from the content of the technical solution of this utility model should be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
