Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for cooling, drying and granulating melted extrudate strands made of thermoplastic materials with an inclined drainage channel arranged with its upper end under the nozzles, a device generating a coolant flow on the drainage channel and one arranged downstream of the drainage channel , with a feed roller pair of pelletizers and with a transport line arranged in front of the pelletizer, which has in the area of its entrance a pair of conveying rollers which detects the fed strands.
  • Such a device is known from DE-OS 44 39 774.
  • the pair of conveying rollers of this device is used to grasp strands guided over the drainage channel and to push them safely over the following transport path designed as a temperature control path, in order to ensure that the strands are self-threading.
  • the strands are pushed forward over the transport route until they are gripped by the pair of feed rollers of the granulator, which completes the threading of the supplied strands.
  • the strands are exposed to a dwell time that depends on the transport speed of the conveyor rollers, as a result of which temperature differences over the strand cross section are to be compensated. There are obviously no special drying effects.
  • the invention has for its object to design the device described above so that it results in a high degree of drying of the plastic strands. According to the invention, this is done in that both the conveyor roller pair and the feed roller pair are set apart from the transport path with their respective roller gap in such a way that the strands are conveyed away from the transport path by detecting the strands in the feed roller pair and due to a stronger pull by the feed roller pair compared to the feed roller pair .
  • a blowing path which is short compared to the transport path for blowing off liquid adhering to the strands can advantageously be arranged after the pair of conveyor rollers.
  • This blowing section can be arranged between the pair of conveyor rollers and the transport section as well as between the transport section and the granulator.
  • an intermediate section is expediently arranged between the drainage channel and the transport section, which can optionally be operated as a cooling or drying section. Depending on its design, this intermediate section can be used to bring about any necessary intensified cooling of the plastic strands, for example by arranging spray nozzles for a coolant on the intermediate section. If the degree of drying is more important, the intermediate section can also be operated in such a way that it allows a kind of predrying, for example by arranging air-blowing nozzles.
  • the transport of such plastic strands can be additionally secured by forming the transport route and, if necessary, the intermediate route as a conveyor belt.
  • the conveyor belt enables the plastic strands to be self-threaded with particularly high security.
  • Another way of intensifying the transport effect is to design the transport route and possibly the intermediate route as a vibration conveyor.
  • the transport route and, if appropriate, the intermediate route can be inclined relative to the drainage channel in such a way that the strands are led upwards. This ensures that the device can convey plastic strands in granulators that have a normal working height, for example Exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown in the figures. Show it
  • FIG. 1 the device with a transport route directly adjoining the drainage channel with the interposition of the conveyor roller pair with the transport route being aligned horizontally;
  • Figure 2 the device with a combination of transport route and intermediate route, both of which are inclined upwards.
  • the device shown in FIG. 1 contains the nozzle plate 1 with nozzles from which thermoplastic plastic strands 2 emerge.
  • the plastic strands reach the drainage channel 3 directed obliquely downwards, which is fed with cooling water at its upper left end via the water tank 4.
  • the water tank 4 is therefore the device mentioned above which generates a flow of coolant.
  • the plastic strands 2 are entrained and cooled by the cooling liquid flowing down the drainage channel 3 and finally emerge from the drainage channel 5 at the end 5, whereby they have already cooled at least to the extent that their surface has hardened.
  • the coolant flowing down the drainage channel reaches the area of a sieve (not shown here) in the bottom of the drainage channel 3, through which the coolant flows and is drained off via the drainage box 6.
  • the plastic strands 2, which arrive at the end 5 of the drainage channel 3, are thus largely free of coolant and only wetted with coolant on their surface.
  • the drainage channel 3 is arranged downstream of the transport path 7, which is oriented horizontally here.
  • the conveyor rollers 8 and 9 consisting of a pair of conveyor rollers is arranged, which with its existing roller nip between the two conveyor rollers 8 and 9 detects the incoming plastic strands 2 and clamps them slightly, due to the rotation of the conveyor rollers 8 and 9 these pull exert on the plastic strands 2 and thus push the plastic strands forward on the transport route 7.
  • the transport path 7 has a flat sheet metal base, over which the plastic strands are first pushed over until they are gripped by the pair of feed rollers 10 and 11 of the granulator 12.
  • the conveyor roller pair 8/9 and the feed roller pair 10/11 is arranged so that the respective roller gap is separated from the transport path 7, i.e. the nip between the conveyor rollers 8 and 9 and the feed rollers 10 and 11 is a few millimeters higher with respect to the level of the transport path 7.
  • the drive of the feed rollers 10 and 11 and that of the feed rollers 8 and 9 takes place in such a way that the feed roller pair 10/11 exerts a pull on the plastic strands, i.e. the plastic strands 2 are stretched between the pair of conveyor rollers 8 and 9 and the pair of feed rollers 10 and 11, as a result of which the plastic strands 2 are transported when they are conveyed in a position lifted off the bottom of the transport path 2.
  • the strands 2 are due to the pull exerted on them by the feed roller pair 10/11 and the above-mentioned offset position of the Roll nips of the roller pairs 8/9 and 10/11 are drawn largely freely suspended above the transport path 7 and can therefore be freely washed around by the surrounding air. Taking into account the relatively high temperature still inherent in the plastic strands 2 at this point, this results in residual water evaporating or evaporating on the surface of the plastics 2, so that at the end of the transport path 7 the plastic strands 2 are practically dry in the granulator 12 arrive. The granulator 12 is thus able to deliver practically dry granules.
  • a vibrator is indicated below the transport path 7 with dash-dotted lines, which is attached to the bottom of the transport path 7 and which, if necessary, ensures, in particular when threading plastic strands 2 onto this along the transport path 7, to exert a special conveying effect.
  • FIG. 2 shows a modification of the device according to FIG. 1, which consists in that the intermediate section 13 is inserted between the drainage channel 3 and the transport path 7, via which the plastic strands 2 from the end 5 of the drainage channel 3 to the conveyor roller pair 8/9 be transported.
  • the intermediate section 13 is kept free of any devices for influencing the plastic strands 2, which may consist, for example, in spray nozzles for spraying on a coolant or blowing devices, in order, if necessary, to further cool or pre-dry the plastic strands 2.
  • FIG. 2 Simple embodiment of the intermediate section 13 shown without the above-mentioned assemblies a supplementary cooling and drying of the plastic strands 2 passed over them.
  • a blowing device 14 is arranged in the device according to FIG 2 washed and any remaining water is blown away from the surface. This leads to a substantial pre-drying, so that in the area of the transport path 7, the plastic strands 2 guided over them remain only relatively little moisture.
  • blowing device 14 can of course also be an arrangement for blowing out air in the reverse direction, which is then of course to be arranged above the plastic strands 2. It is also possible to arrange such a blowing device alone or additionally between the end of the transport path 7 and the granulator 12.
  • the device according to FIG. 2 also has the peculiarity that the intermediate section 13 and the transport section 7 are arranged inclined upwards, so that plastic strands 2 guided over these two areas gain in height and thus without further ado a correspondingly high arranged pair of feed rollers 10/11 can be fed to the granulator 12 without deflection.
  • the right deflection roller of the conveyor belt 16 simultaneously forms the one conveyor roller 9, which cooperates with the other conveyor roller 8 in the sense of the function of the pair of conveyor rollers. The storage of these two rollers
