[0035] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides an extruder feeding device with impurity removal function, including: feeding cylinder 1, annular filter plate 2, screen cylinder 3, feeding cylinder 4, and magnetic strip assembly 5.

[0036] In this embodiment, the feeding cylinder 1 is cylindrical. The feeding cylinder is vertically arranged. The feeding cylinder 1 has an upper closed end and a lower open end.

[0037] The annular filter plate 2 is rotatably mounted in the middle of the feeding cylinder 1. In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the annular filter plate 2 is adapted to the inner diameter of the feeding cylinder 1.

[0038] The annular filter plate 2 is coaxially arranged with the feeding cylinder 1, and the annular filter plate 2 has multiple filter holes. The inner diameter of the filter holes is smaller than the outer diameter of large particles in the raw material.

A vibrator 21 is installed on the annular filter plate 2. A motor 22 is installed on the feeding cylinder 1. The motor 22 is driven by the annular filter plate 2 to drive the annular filter plate to rotate around the central axis of the feeding cylinder.

[0040] The screen cylinder 3 is cylindrical. The upper end of the screen cylinder 3 is coaxially mounted inside the closed end. The lower end of the screen cylinder 3 is rotatably inserted into the inner annular hole of the annular filter plate 2. The outer diameter of the screen cylinder is adapted to the size of the inner annular hole of the annular filter plate.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, a supporting rib 11 is installed on the inner side of the feed cylinder 1. The supporting rib 11 is arranged in a circle along the circumference of the feed cylinder 1. The supporting rib 11 is supported on the annular filter plate 2.

[0042] In this embodiment, the mesh cylinder 3 is a stainless steel mesh cylinder. The mesh size of the stainless steel mesh cylinder is smaller than the outer diameter of the raw material particles. A support member is formed at the lower part of the circumferential surface of the mesh cylinder. The support member is arranged in a circle along the circumference of the mesh cylinder. The support member is supported on the annular filter plate. Specifically, the support member is supported on the inner edge of the annular filter plate, and the support rib is supported on the outer edge of the annular filter plate. The inner annular surface of the annular filter plate 2 is rotatably connected to the circumferential surface of the mesh cylinder 3 through a sealed bearing.

[0043] In this embodiment, the outer edge of the annular filter plate 2 extends upward to form an annular cover 25, and the annular cover 25 is arranged in a circle along the circumference of the annular filter plate.

[0044] The upper closed end of the feeding cylinder 1 has a through hole. The through hole is connected to a dust suction pipe 31.

[0045] The diameter of the feed cylinder 4 is smaller than that of the feed cylinder 1. The feed cylinder 4 is coaxially positioned below the lower opening end of the feed cylinder 1.

[0046] In this embodiment, the upper opening of the feed cylinder 4 is connected to the lower opening via a reducing cylinder 41. The reducing cylinder is in the shape of an inverted frustum. The upper end of the reducing cylinder is adapted to the diameter of the feed cylinder, and the lower end of the reducing cylinder is adapted to the diameter of the feed cylinder.

[0047] There are multiple magnetic strip assemblies 5. Each magnetic strip assembly 5 includes multiple sleeves 51 and magnetic core strips 52. The sleeves 51 are connected to the cylinder walls on opposite sides of the feed cylinder 4. The ends of the sleeves 51 penetrate the cylinder walls. The magnetic core strips 52 are detachably inserted into the sleeves 51.

[0048] In this embodiment, the sleeve 51 is arranged radially along the feed cylinder 4. The sleeve 51 is triangular prism in shape. One corner of the sleeve 51 faces upward.

[0049] In a preferred embodiment, multiple magnetic stripe assemblies 5 are arranged in multiple rows along a vertical direction. Each row of magnetic stripe assemblies 5 includes multiple magnetic stripe assemblies 5 spaced apart. The magnetic stripe assemblies 5 in two adjacent rows are arranged alternately.

[0050] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a chip receiving plate is rotatably mounted on the lower end of the feed cylinder.

[0051] The extruder feeding device with impurity removal function of this utility model also includes a buffer plate 6 disposed below the filter holes. The lower end of the screen cylinder 3 extends below the annular filter plate 2. The buffer plate 6 is inclined, and the upper end of the buffer plate 6 is rotatably mounted on the lower end of the screen cylinder 3. An elastic support member 61 connects the buffer plate 6 and the screen cylinder 3.

[0052] See Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple buffer plates 6. Multiple buffer plates 6 are continuously arranged along the circumference of the mesh cylinder 3.

[0053] In this embodiment, a feeding port is provided at the upper end of the feeding cylinder, and a cover plate is installed in the feeding port. During feeding, the cover plate is opened and the motor is turned on. The motor drives the annular filter plate to rotate through the gears, so that the raw material is evenly piled on the annular filter plate. The vibrator is turned on, and the raw material particles fall through the filter holes of the annular filter plate, while large-diameter impurities are retained on the annular filter plate. When the raw material particles fall, they fall onto the buffer plate, which buffers the raw material particles, so that the raw material particles fall onto the inner side of the cylinder wall of the variable diameter cylinder. Then, the raw material particles slide into the feeding cylinder along the inclined slope of the cylinder wall of the variable diameter cylinder. When the raw material particles fall into the feeding cylinder, as the raw material particles pass through the gaps between each magnetic strip assembly, the metal impurities are adsorbed onto the magnetic strip assembly, and the dust raised during the falling process is sucked away by the suction pipe through the mesh cylinder, so that the impurity-removed raw material particles fall into the hopper 71 of the extruder 7.

[0054] After feeding is complete, the chip receiving plate is pivotally connected to the end face of the feed cylinder via a vertically hinged shaft. Rotating the chip receiving plate positions it directly below the lower opening of the feed cylinder. Then, the magnetic core strip is pulled out of the sleeve; once the magnetic attraction disappears, any metal impurities adsorbed outside the sleeve fall onto the chip receiving plate. Rotating the chip receiving plate again removes the metal impurities. Finally, the magnetic core strip is inserted back into the sleeve.

[0055] After the feeding device has been used continuously for a period of time, open the cover of the feeding port and use an industrial vacuum cleaner to periodically clean the large-diameter impurities on the annular filter plate.

[0056] This utility model discloses an extruder feeding device with impurity removal function. It filters out large particulate impurities through an annular filter plate, removes dust from the feed cylinder and feed barrel through a suction pipe, and removes metal impurities through a magnetic strip assembly. This prevents large particulate impurities and metal impurities from wearing down the extruder, avoids dust mixing from reducing product quality, and improves the service life of the extruder.

[0057] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and an explanation of the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the utility model involved in this application is not limited to the technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-described technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-described technical features or their equivalents without departing from the inventive concept. For example, technical solutions formed by substituting the above features with (but not limited to) technical features with similar functions disclosed in this application.
