Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plastic foam granules technology, and in particular to an extruder pelletizer for producing plastic foam granules. Background Technology

[0002] Foamed plastics are porous materials made through a foaming molding process. They mainly use resins such as polystyrene and polyurethane as the base material. The principle is to form a microporous structure inside the plastic through chemical, physical, or mechanical means. They are divided into two types: open-cell and closed-cell. Chemical foaming relies on the decomposition of foaming agents to generate gas, physical foaming is achieved through liquid vaporization, and mechanical foaming uses a gas stirring and mixing process. This material has low thermal conductivity, high cushioning, and sound insulation properties. Plastic foamed granules are porous materials made through a foaming process. They mainly use resins such as polystyrene and polyurethane as the base material. After processing, they form granular structures with a diameter of 2-7 mm. Plastic foamed granules need to be processed by extruders and pelletizers.

[0003] Most extruder pelletizers used in the production of plastic foam granules on the market cannot filter out large plastic foam granules during processing, which affects the subsequent use of the plastic foam granules. Therefore, there is a need for an extruder pelletizer for the production of plastic foam granules to meet people's needs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of embodiments of the present invention and to briefly describe some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention.

[0005] Given that most extrusion pelletizers used in the production of plastic foam granules on the market cannot filter out large plastic foam granules during processing, thus affecting the subsequent use of the plastic foam granules, there is a need for an extrusion pelletizer for the production of plastic foam granules to meet people's needs.

[0006] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an extruder pelletizer for producing plastic foam granules.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a plastic extruder pelletizer for producing foamed plastic granules, comprising a device housing, a base mounted on the top of the device housing, a screw extruder mechanism mounted on the top of the base, a hopper mounted on the top of the screw extruder mechanism, a screw drive mechanism mounted on one end of the screw extruder mechanism, and an extrusion nozzle mounted on the end of the screw extruder mechanism away from the screw drive mechanism. A rectangular groove is formed at the top of the device housing, and a first conveying roller body is rotatably mounted on both sides of the inner sidewall of the rectangular groove. A first groove is formed on one sidewall of the device housing, and the first groove communicates with the rectangular groove. A second conveying roller body is rotatably mounted on both sidewalls of the inner sidewall of the first groove. A pelletizing assembly is mounted on one sidewall of the device housing, and a storage box is mounted on one sidewall of the device housing, with a filter assembly provided at the top of the storage box.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the extruder pelletizer for producing plastic foam granules according to this utility model, the top of each of the storage boxes is provided with a second groove, and a first through hole is provided on one side wall of the storage box, and the first through hole is connected to the second groove. A limit rod is provided inside the first through hole, and a connecting plate is installed at one end of the limit rod. A threaded hole is provided inside the connecting plate. A high-pressure spring body is sleeved on the outer wall of the limit rod, and the two ends of the high-pressure spring body are fixedly connected to the connecting plate and the side wall of the storage box, respectively.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the extruder pelletizer for producing plastic foam granules according to this utility model, wherein: the internal thread of the threaded hole is connected to a threaded rod, and one end of the threaded rod is rotatably connected to the side wall of the storage box through a bearing.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the extruder pelletizer for producing plastic foam granules according to this utility model, the filter assembly has mounting plates installed on the side walls at both ends, and a first vertical rod and a second vertical rod are respectively installed on the bottom of the mounting plates. The side wall of the second vertical rod has a limiting groove, and the bottom of the filter assembly has a filter screen frame body installed.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of the extruder pelletizer for producing plastic foam granules according to this utility model, the first vertical rod and the second vertical rod respectively cooperate with the second groove.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the extruder pelletizer for producing plastic foam granules according to this utility model, the bottom end of the rectangular groove is equipped with a drain pipe that penetrates the side wall of the device box, and a solenoid valve is installed inside the drain pipe.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the extruder pelletizer for producing plastic foam granules according to this utility model, the limiting rod and the limiting groove are engaged with each other.

[0014] The extruder pelletizer for producing plastic foam granules of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] This invention firstly uses a rectangular groove design to allow water to be injected into the groove. Simultaneously, it uses multiple sets of first conveying rollers to discharge the extruded hot melt plastic. At the same time, by starting a drive motor, the drive shaft and the cutting tool body are rotated. The rotation of the drive shaft drives the rotation of the cutting tool body to granulate the hot melt plastic, thereby improving the granulation effect of the plastic foam granules.

[0016] This invention firstly involves the filter assembly and the storage box working together, and connecting the filter assembly and the storage box via threaded holes. The rotation of the threaded rod causes the connecting plate to slide on the outer wall of the threaded rod, which in turn causes the limiting rod to slide inside the first through hole. Simultaneously, the second vertical rod is inserted into the second groove and engages with the limiting groove through the sliding of the limiting rod, thus facilitating the installation and disassembly of the filter assembly and the storage box. Furthermore, the filter frame body filters the plastic foam particles generated during pelletizing, thereby preventing large plastic foam particles from affecting the subsequent use effect.
