Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pelletizers, and in particular to an underwater pelletizer. Background Technology

[0002] Underwater pelletizers are key equipment used in the production of polymers (such as plastics and synthetic fibers). They can quickly cut high-temperature molten polymer strands extruded from the die holes into uniformly sized pellets directly underwater.

[0003] In the prior art, patent document CN209504628U discloses a plastic underwater pelletizer, including a slide plate slidably connected to a frame. The slide plate is provided with a left clamp and a right clamp for fixing a cutter head and a cutting chamber. Both the left clamp and the right clamp include a hinge end and a locking end. The slide plate is fixedly provided with a hinge seat, and the hinge seat is provided with two hinge shafts. The hinge ends of the left clamp and the right clamp are respectively hinged to the hinge seat through the two hinge shafts. The locking ends of the left clamp and the right clamp are provided with a locking structure that locks together.

[0004] During use, it was found that the slide plate in the above device can only slide left and right on the frame, but cannot be adjusted in height, which makes it impossible for the die head to be aligned with the upstream screw extruder, thus limiting the installation. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an underwater pelletizer.

[0006] This utility model discloses an underwater pelletizer, comprising a base, a support, a pelletizing chamber, a lifting platform, and a die head. Two sets of supports are mounted on the top of the base, and the die head is fixedly mounted on the top of the lifting platform. The output end of the die head has a pelletizing chamber. The pelletizer also includes a lifting assembly, a pelletizing assembly, a locking assembly, and a water supply assembly. Multiple sets of lifting assemblies are arranged between the support and the lifting platform. The pelletizing assembly is slidably mounted on the top of the lifting platform. A locking assembly is provided between the pelletizing assembly and the pelletizing chamber, used to lock and fix the pelletizing assembly to the pelletizing chamber for sealing. The water supply assembly is used to input cooling water into the pelletizing chamber and to transport the cut pellets. In use… Based on the height of the upstream screw extruder, the staff adjusts the height of the lifting platform using multiple sets of lifting components. This allows the die input end to be bolted to the output end of the upstream screw extruder in conjunction with the starter and screen changer, improving operational flexibility. Then, the pelletizing assembly seals the front of the pelletizing chamber. The pelletizing assembly and the pelletizing chamber are locked together using locking components. A conveying pump delivers cooling water to the pelletizing chamber through a water conveying assembly. The cooling water cools the raw material in contact with the die, and the pelletizing assembly pellets the cooled material. When the cooling water inside the pelletizing chamber is discharged, the raw material particles are also discharged, achieving flexibility in equipment installation.

[0007] Preferably, the water supply assembly includes a support frame, a fixed frame, an inlet pipe, and an outlet pipe. The support frame is installed at the top of the lifting platform, and the outlet pipe is placed at the top of the support frame. The fixed frame is fitted around the outside of the outlet pipe and is fixedly installed at the top of the support frame. The inlet end of the outlet pipe is connected to the top of the pelletizing chamber, and the outlet end of the inlet pipe is connected to the bottom of the pelletizing chamber. The inlet end of the inlet pipe is connected to the outlet end of the water pump. When the water pump is started, the water pump causes cooling water to enter the pelletizing chamber through the inlet pipe. The cooling water cools the raw material, and the pelletizing assembly pelletizes the cooled raw material. The cooling water carries the raw material particles through the outlet pipe and is discharged into the centrifugal separator. The centrifugal separator separates the raw material particles from the cooling water, and the cooling water enters the cold water tank for cooling and is reused by the water pump.

[0008] Preferably, the pelletizing assembly includes a fixed base, a slide rail, a movable base, a motor, a pelletizing cutter head, and a sealing plate. Two pairs of fixed bases are located at the top of the lifting platform, and each pair of fixed bases has a set of slide rails on its inner side. The movable base is slidably connected to the two sets of slide rails. A motor and a sealing plate are fixedly mounted at the top of the movable base. The motor output end passes through the sealing plate and is equipped with a pelletizing cutter head. In use, the movable base is slid along the slide rails, allowing the pelletizing cutter head to enter the pelletizing chamber while the sealing plate seals the front end of the pelletizing chamber. Then, a locking assembly is used to lock and fix the sealing plate and the pelletizing chamber. The motor is started, causing the pelletizing cutter head to rotate rapidly inside the pelletizing chamber, thus pelletizing the raw material extruded into the pelletizing chamber by the screw extruder through the die. The locking assembly improves the sealing performance of the sealing plate in the pelletizing chamber, increases the cooling efficiency of the raw material, and avoids problems such as material carrying by the pelletizing cutter head, pipe blockage, and pellet agglomeration. It also facilitates subsequent moisture removal from the raw material pellets, improving processing efficiency.

[0009] Preferably, the locking assembly includes a shaft pin, a lead screw, a U-shaped clamping plate, and a wing nut. The two sets of lead screws are respectively hinged to the sealing plate via the shaft pin. A set of U-shaped clamping plates is symmetrically arranged on the outer side wall of the pelletizing chamber. Each set of lead screws is threadedly connected to a set of wing nuts. When the sealing plate seals the front end of the pelletizing chamber, the operator moves the lead screw into the inner side of the U-shaped clamping plate with the help of the shaft pin, and rotates the wing nut, thereby causing the wing nut to press against the U-shaped clamping plate, thus completing the fixed connection between the sealing plate and the pelletizing chamber, improving the sealing performance of the front end of the pelletizing chamber, and preventing cooling water from leaking out through the gap between the sealing plate and the pelletizing chamber.

[0010] Preferably, it also includes a sealing gasket, wherein the sealing plate is provided with a sealing gasket, and the front end of the pelletizing chamber is provided with an annular groove, the annular groove being adapted to the sealing gasket; the sealing plate seals the front end of the pelletizing chamber, the sealing gasket enters the annular groove, and the sealing gasket seals the gap between the pelletizing chamber and the sealing plate, thereby further improving the sealing performance.

[0011] Preferably, the lifting assembly includes an internally threaded tube, a lead screw, and a fixing block. The internally threaded tube is rotatably mounted on the bracket. The lead screw passes through the internally threaded tube and is threadedly connected to it. The top end of the lead screw is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lifting platform. A fixing block is fixedly fitted on the outside of the internally threaded tube. When the height of the die head and pelletizing chamber needs to be adjusted, the operator rotates the fixing block using a tool, thereby rotating the internally threaded tube. Since the lead screw is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lifting platform, the height of the lead screw relative to the internally threaded tube is increased, thus achieving the height adjustment of the lifting platform. A locking nut is threaded on the lead screw. After the height of the lifting platform is adjusted, the locking nut is rotated to tighten the internally threaded tube, preventing the lead screw from rotating on its own.

[0012] Preferably, it also includes a handle, and the side wall of the movable seat is provided with a handle; the staff can adjust the position of the movable seat by using the handle to improve the ease of movement.

[0013] Preferably, the device also includes adjustable feet, with a set of adjustable feet provided at each of the four corners of the bottom of the base; the four sets of adjustable feet work together to provide stable support for the device and improve stability.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: During use, the operator adjusts the height of the lifting platform according to the height of the upstream screw extruder using multiple sets of lifting components, so that the die input end is bolted to the output end of the upstream screw extruder, improving the flexibility of operation. Then, the pelletizing component seals the front side of the pelletizing chamber, and the pelletizing component and the pelletizing chamber are locked and fixed by the locking component. The conveying pump delivers cooling water to the inside of the pelletizing chamber through the water conveying component. The cooling water cools the raw material in contact with the die head, and the pelletizing component pellets the cooled raw material. When the cooling water inside the pelletizing chamber is discharged, the raw material particles are also discharged, realizing the flexibility of equipment installation. Attached Figure Description

Then, the locking assembly is operated to lock and fix the sealing plate 13 and the pelletizing chamber 3.
