Definitions
- the present invention relates to a compression molding device that compresses and molds waste materials, such as waste plastics.
- a conventional compression molding device of this type is described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 7-53374.
- the compression molding device has a truncated cone-shaped casing that tapers towards the bottom, an inlet for feeding waste into the casing from above, a discharge outlet for discharging the waste compressed inside the casing from the bottom of the casing, a rotatable screw that compresses the waste fed into the casing from the inlet while sending it towards the discharge outlet, and an electric motor that rotates the screw.
- a protrusion is provided on the inner circumferential surface of the casing to prevent the waste from rotating together with the screw.
- the ridges are thin, rod-like members that are elongated in the vertical direction.
- a gap is formed between the outer periphery of the screw and the ridges so that the screw does not interfere with the ridges.
- waste material is fed into the casing through an inlet, compressed as it is sent downward by the rotating screw, and formed into a rod-like shape before being discharged through a discharge outlet. At this time, the waste is caught on the ridges, thereby preventing the waste from rotating together with the screw.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a waste compression molding apparatus capable of preventing damage to the screw, motor, etc.
- the present invention is a waste compression molding device that compresses waste introduced into a casing with a screw, molds the waste, and discharges the waste.
- the waste treatment device has a casing, an input section for inputting waste into the casing, a discharge section for discharging the compressed waste from inside the casing, and a rotatable screw for compressing the waste input into the casing from the input section while sending it toward the discharge section,
- a plurality of protrusions are provided on the inner circumferential surface of the casing to prevent the waste from rotating together with the screw;
- the protrusions are arranged intermittently at intervals in the axial direction of the screw, A passage through which waste can pass is formed between adjacent protrusions in the axial direction of the screw.
- waste material is fed into the casing from the feed section, compressed by the rotating screw as it is sent toward the discharge section, and formed into a specified shape before being discharged from the discharge section.
- the waste gets caught on the protrusions, preventing the waste from rotating along with the screw. Also, even if foreign matter such as metal lumps mixed in the waste comes close to being caught between the screw and the protrusions while the screw is rotating, it passes through the passages between the adjacent protrusions and is discharged from the discharge section together with the compressed and molded waste.
- the protrusion is inclined with respect to the rotation axis of the screw so that the first end facing the rotation direction of the screw is positioned closer to the discharge section than the second end facing in the opposite direction to the rotation direction of the screw.
- the first end of one protrusion and the second end of the other protrusion that are adjacent to each other in the direction of the rotation axis of the screw overlap when viewed from the direction of rotation of the screw.
- the waste material will hit one of the protrusions when passing through the passage between adjacent protrusions. This reliably prevents the waste material from rotating with the screw, and the inclination of the protrusions ensures that the waste material is guided toward the discharge section.
- the discharge portion is located on a straight line passing through the screw's rotation axis and the protrusion when viewed from the direction of the screw's rotation axis.
- the protrusions are disposed at a plurality of positions within the casing in the rotation direction of the screw. This can reliably prevent the waste from rotating together with the screw.
- the present invention can prevent foreign matter mixed in the waste from getting caught between the screw and the protrusion. This prevents excessive load from being placed on the screw, and prevents damage to the screw and the rotary drive device, such as the electric motor that rotates the screw.

Description
本発明は、例えば廃プラスチック類等の廃棄物を圧縮して成形する圧縮成形装置に関する。
The present invention relates to a compression molding device that compresses and molds waste materials, such as waste plastics.
従来、この種の圧縮成形装置としては、日本国の特公平7-53374に記載されている。圧縮成形装置は、下部ほど細くなる円錐台状のケーシングと、廃棄物を上方からケーシング内に投入する投入口と、ケーシング内で圧縮された廃棄物をケーシングの下部から排出する排出口と、投入口からケーシング内に投入された廃棄物を排出口の方へ送りながら圧縮する回転自在なスクリューと、スクリューを回転させる電動機等とを有している。
A conventional compression molding device of this type is described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 7-53374. The compression molding device has a truncated cone-shaped casing that tapers towards the bottom, an inlet for feeding waste into the casing from above, a discharge outlet for discharging the waste compressed inside the casing from the bottom of the casing, a rotatable screw that compresses the waste fed into the casing from the inlet while sending it towards the discharge outlet, and an electric motor that rotates the screw.
廃棄物がスクリューと供回りするのを防止するための1本の突条がケーシングの内周面に設けられている。供回りとは、廃棄物がスクリューと一緒に回転してしまうことである。
突条は上下方向に細長い棒状の部材である。スクリューの外周縁と突条との間には、スクリューが突条に干渉しないように、隙間が形成される。 A protrusion is provided on the inner circumferential surface of the casing to prevent the waste from rotating together with the screw.
The ridges are thin, rod-like members that are elongated in the vertical direction. A gap is formed between the outer periphery of the screw and the ridges so that the screw does not interfere with the ridges.

これによると、投入口からケーシング内に投入された廃棄物は、回転するスクリューによって下方へ送られながら圧縮され、棒状に成形されて排出口から排出される。
この際、廃棄物が突条に引っ掛かることにより、廃棄物がスクリューと供回りするのを防止することができる。 According to this device, waste material is fed into the casing through an inlet, compressed as it is sent downward by the rotating screw, and formed into a rod-like shape before being discharged through a discharge outlet.
At this time, the waste is caught on the ridges, thereby preventing the waste from rotating together with the screw.

本発明は、ケーシング内に投入された廃棄物をスクリューで圧縮して成形し排出する廃棄物の圧縮成形装置であって、
ケーシングと、廃棄物をケーシング内に投入する投入部と、圧縮された廃棄物をケーシング内から排出する排出部と、投入部からケーシング内に投入された廃棄物を排出部の方へ送りながら圧縮する回転自在なスクリューとを有し、
ケーシングの内周面に、廃棄物がスクリューと供回りするのを防止する複数の突起部が設けられ、
突起部はスクリューの回転軸心方向において間隔をあけて断続的に配置され、
スクリューの回転軸心方向において隣り合う突起部間に、廃棄物が通過可能な通路が形成されていることを特徴とする。 The present invention is a waste compression molding device that compresses waste introduced into a casing with a screw, molds the waste, and discharges the waste.
The waste treatment device has a casing, an input section for inputting waste into the casing, a discharge section for discharging the compressed waste from inside the casing, and a rotatable screw for compressing the waste input into the casing from the input section while sending it toward the discharge section,
A plurality of protrusions are provided on the inner circumferential surface of the casing to prevent the waste from rotating together with the screw;
The protrusions are arranged intermittently at intervals in the axial direction of the screw,
A passage through which waste can pass is formed between adjacent protrusions in the axial direction of the screw.

ケーシングの内周面に、廃棄物がスクリューと供回りするのを防止する複数の突起部が設けられ、

スクリューの回転軸心方向において隣り合う突起部間に、廃棄物が通過可能な通路が形成されていることを特徴とする。 The present invention is a waste compression molding device that compresses waste introduced into a casing with a screw, molds the waste, and discharges the waste.
The waste treatment device has a casing, an input section for inputting waste into the casing, a discharge section for discharging the compressed waste from inside the casing, and a rotatable screw for compressing the waste input into the casing from the input section while sending it toward the discharge section,
A plurality of protrusions are provided on the inner circumferential surface of the casing to prevent the waste from rotating together with the screw;
The protrusions are arranged intermittently at intervals in the axial direction of the screw,
A passage through which waste can pass is formed between adjacent protrusions in the axial direction of the screw.
これによると、投入部からケーシング内に投入された廃棄物は、回転するスクリューによって排出部の方へ送られながら圧縮され、所定の形状に成形されて排出部から排出される。
In this system, waste material is fed into the casing from the feed section, compressed by the rotating screw as it is sent toward the discharge section, and formed into a specified shape before being discharged from the discharge section.
この際、廃棄物が突起部に引っ掛かることにより、廃棄物がスクリューと供回りするのを防止することができる。また、スクリューが回転している際、廃棄物に混入している金属塊等の異物は、スクリューと突起部との間に噛み込みそうになっても、互いに隣り合う突起部間の通路を通り抜けて、圧縮成形された廃棄物と共に排出部から排出される。
In this case, the waste gets caught on the protrusions, preventing the waste from rotating along with the screw. Also, even if foreign matter such as metal lumps mixed in the waste comes close to being caught between the screw and the protrusions while the screw is rotating, it passes through the passages between the adjacent protrusions and is discharged from the discharge section together with the compressed and molded waste.
これにより、廃棄物に混入している異物がスクリューと突起部との間に引っ掛かるのを防止することができ、以って、スクリューに過大な負荷が掛かることは無く、スクリューの損傷およびスクリューを回転させる電動機等の回転駆動装置の損傷を防止することができる。
This prevents foreign matter mixed in the waste from getting caught between the screw and the protrusion, and therefore prevents excessive load from being placed on the screw, preventing damage to the screw and the rotary drive device, such as the electric motor that rotates the screw.
本発明の圧縮成形装置によれば、突起部は、スクリューの回転軸心に対して、スクリューの回転方向に向いた第1端部がスクリューの回転方向とは反対方向に向いた第2端部よりも排出部の方向へ位置するように、傾斜していることが好ましい。
In the compression molding device of the present invention, it is preferable that the protrusion is inclined with respect to the rotation axis of the screw so that the first end facing the rotation direction of the screw is positioned closer to the discharge section than the second end facing in the opposite direction to the rotation direction of the screw.
これによると、突起部に引っ掛かった廃棄物は、互いに隣り合う突起部間の通路を通り抜ける際、突起部の傾斜によって排出部の方へ案内される。これにより、廃棄物はスムーズに排出部から排出される。
As a result, when waste gets caught on the protrusions, it is guided towards the discharge section by the inclination of the protrusions as it passes through the passage between adjacent protrusions. This allows the waste to be discharged smoothly from the discharge section.
本発明の圧縮成形装置によれば、スクリューの回転軸心方向において互いに隣り合う一方の突起部の第1端部と他方の突起部の第2端部とが、スクリューの回転方向から見て、重なることが好ましい。
In the compression molding device of the present invention, it is preferable that the first end of one protrusion and the second end of the other protrusion that are adjacent to each other in the direction of the rotation axis of the screw overlap when viewed from the direction of rotation of the screw.
これによると、廃棄物は、互いに隣り合う突起部間の通路を通り抜ける際、確実にいずれかの突起部に当たる。これにより、廃棄物がスクリューと供回りするのを確実に防止することができるとともに、廃棄物が突起部の傾斜によって排出部の方へ確実に案内される。
As a result, the waste material will hit one of the protrusions when passing through the passage between adjacent protrusions. This reliably prevents the waste material from rotating with the screw, and the inclination of the protrusions ensures that the waste material is guided toward the discharge section.
本発明の圧縮成形装置によれば、排出部は、スクリューの回転軸心方向から見て、スクリューの回転軸心と突起部とを通る直線上に存在することが好ましい。
In the compression molding device of the present invention, it is preferable that the discharge portion is located on a straight line passing through the screw's rotation axis and the protrusion when viewed from the direction of the screw's rotation axis.
これによると、スクリューで圧縮された廃棄物が突起部に当たることによって、廃棄物に加えられる圧力が突起部の近傍においてさらに上昇し、廃棄物は高い圧力によって円滑且つ確実に排出部から押し出される。
As a result, when the waste compressed by the screw hits the protrusion, the pressure applied to the waste increases further in the vicinity of the protrusion, and the waste is pushed out of the discharge section smoothly and reliably by the high pressure.
本発明の圧縮成形装置によれば、突起部はスクリューの回転方向におけるケーシング内の複数箇所に配設されていることが好ましい。
これによると、廃棄物がスクリューと供回りするのを確実に防止することができる。 According to the compression molding apparatus of the present invention, it is preferable that the protrusions are disposed at a plurality of positions within the casing in the rotation direction of the screw.
This can reliably prevent the waste from rotating together with the screw.

This can reliably prevent the waste from rotating together with the screw.
以上のように本発明によると、廃棄物に混入している異物がスクリューと突起部との間に引っ掛かるのを防止することができる。このため、スクリューに過大な負荷が掛かることは無く、スクリューの損傷およびスクリューを回転させる電動機等の回転駆動装置の損傷を防止することができる。
As described above, the present invention can prevent foreign matter mixed in the waste from getting caught between the screw and the protrusion. This prevents excessive load from being placed on the screw, and prevents damage to the screw and the rotary drive device, such as the electric motor that rotates the screw.
以下、本発明における実施の形態を、図面を参照して説明する。
The following describes an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings.
(第1の実施の形態)
第1の実施の形態では、図1~図3に示すように、圧縮成形装置1は、ケーシング2内に投入されたプラスチック廃棄物3(廃棄物の一例)をスクリュー4で圧縮して成形し排出する。圧縮成形装置1は、ケーシング2と、プラスチック廃棄物3をケーシング2内に投入する投入部7と、ケーシング2内で圧縮されたプラスチック廃棄物3を排出する排出部8と、投入部7からケーシング2内に投入されたプラスチック廃棄物3を排出部8の方へ送りながら圧縮する回転自在なスクリュー4とを有している。 (First embodiment)
In the first embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, acompression molding device 1 compresses plastic waste 3 (an example of waste) fed into a casing 2 with a screw 4, molds it, and discharges it. The compression molding device 1 has a casing 2, an input section 7 for inputting the plastic waste 3 into the casing 2, a discharge section 8 for discharging the plastic waste 3 compressed in the casing 2, and a rotatable screw 4 for compressing the plastic waste 3 fed into the casing 2 from the input section 7 while sending it toward the discharge section 8.
第1の実施の形態では、図1~図3に示すように、圧縮成形装置1は、ケーシング2内に投入されたプラスチック廃棄物3(廃棄物の一例)をスクリュー4で圧縮して成形し排出する。圧縮成形装置1は、ケーシング2と、プラスチック廃棄物3をケーシング2内に投入する投入部7と、ケーシング2内で圧縮されたプラスチック廃棄物3を排出する排出部8と、投入部7からケーシング2内に投入されたプラスチック廃棄物3を排出部8の方へ送りながら圧縮する回転自在なスクリュー4とを有している。 (First embodiment)
In the first embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, a
投入部7は投入口10から投入されたプラスチック廃棄物3をケーシング2内に供給するスクリューコンベヤ11(供給装置の一例)を有している。スクリューコンベヤ11は、プラスチック廃棄物3を投入口10からケーシング2内へ移送する移送用スクリュー12を有しており、ケーシング2の上部に取り付けられている。
ケーシング2は、円筒状の胴体14と、胴体14の上端に設けられた天板15と、胴体14の下端に設けられた底板16とを有している。 Theinput section 7 has a screw conveyor 11 (an example of a supply device) that supplies the plastic waste 3 input from the input port 10 into the casing 2. The screw conveyor 11 has a transport screw 12 that transports the plastic waste 3 from the input port 10 into the casing 2, and is attached to the upper part of the casing 2.
Thecasing 2 has a cylindrical body 14 , a top plate 15 provided at the upper end of the body 14 , and a bottom plate 16 provided at the lower end of the body 14 .
ケーシング2は、円筒状の胴体14と、胴体14の上端に設けられた天板15と、胴体14の下端に設けられた底板16とを有している。 The
The
排出部8は、底板16に形成された排出口19と、底板16から下向きに設けられた排出ノズル20とを有している。排出口19は、ケーシング2の内部と排出ノズル20の上端内部とに開口している。
The discharge section 8 has a discharge port 19 formed in the bottom plate 16 and a discharge nozzle 20 that faces downward from the bottom plate 16. The discharge port 19 opens to the inside of the casing 2 and to the inside of the upper end of the discharge nozzle 20.
スクリュー4は、ケーシング2内を上下方向に貫通する回転軸23と、回転軸23の外周に設けられた螺旋状のスクリュー羽根24とを有している。天板15には、回転軸23を回転させる電動機25(回転駆動装置の一例)が設けられている。スクリュー羽根24のピッチは、一定であってもよく、或いは、排出部8の方すなわち下方ほど縮小されていてもよい。
The screw 4 has a rotating shaft 23 that passes vertically through the casing 2, and a helical screw blade 24 provided on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 23. An electric motor 25 (an example of a rotary drive device) that rotates the rotating shaft 23 is provided on the top plate 15. The pitch of the screw blade 24 may be constant, or may be reduced toward the discharge section 8, i.e., downward.
回転軸23の下部は、底板16を貫通してケーシング2の下方へ突出している。回転軸23の下端には切断棒28が設けられている。切断棒28は排出ノズル20の下方において回転軸23と一体に回転自在である。
The lower part of the rotating shaft 23 penetrates the bottom plate 16 and protrudes downward from the casing 2. A cutting rod 28 is provided at the lower end of the rotating shaft 23. The cutting rod 28 is freely rotatable together with the rotating shaft 23 below the discharge nozzle 20.
ケーシング2の内周面には、プラスチック廃棄物3がスクリュー4と供回りするのを防止する複数の突起部31が設けられている。これら突起部31は、胴体14の内周面に取り付けられており、図4に示すように上下方向32(スクリュー4の回転軸心36の方向の一例)において間隔をあけて断続的に配置されているとともに、図3に示すようにスクリュー4の回転方向33におけるケーシング2内の複数箇所に設けられている。例えば、図3に示すように、突起部31は、スクリュー4の回転方向33において、60°おきに6箇所に配置されている。
The inner circumferential surface of the casing 2 is provided with a number of protrusions 31 that prevent the plastic waste 3 from rotating together with the screw 4. These protrusions 31 are attached to the inner circumferential surface of the body 14 and are arranged intermittently at intervals in the vertical direction 32 (one example of the direction of the rotation axis 36 of the screw 4) as shown in FIG. 4, and are provided at a number of locations within the casing 2 in the rotation direction 33 of the screw 4 as shown in FIG. 3. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the protrusions 31 are arranged at six locations every 60° in the rotation direction 33 of the screw 4.
突起部31は胴体14の内周面から胴体14の径方向における内側へ突出している。スクリュー羽根24が突起部31に干渉しないように、突起部31とスクリュー羽根24の外周縁との間には隙間が形成されている。
The protrusion 31 protrudes from the inner peripheral surface of the body 14 inward in the radial direction of the body 14. A gap is formed between the protrusion 31 and the outer peripheral edge of the screw blade 24 so that the screw blade 24 does not interfere with the protrusion 31.
図4に示すように、上下方向32において隣り合う突起部31間には、通路37が形成されている。プラスチック廃棄物3は、通路37を、スクリュー4の回転方向33へ通過可能である。突起部31は、スクリュー4の回転軸心36に対して、第1端部31aが第2端部31bよりも排出部8の方向(下方向)に位置するように、傾斜している。突起部31の第1端部31aとは、スクリュー4の回転方向33に向いた端部である。突起部31の第2端部31bとは、スクリュー4の回転方向33とは反対方向34に向いた端部である。すなわち、突起部31は、第1端部31aが下向きで且つ第2端部31bが上向きとなるように、傾斜している。
As shown in FIG. 4, a passage 37 is formed between adjacent protrusions 31 in the vertical direction 32. The plastic waste 3 can pass through the passage 37 in the rotation direction 33 of the screw 4. The protrusions 31 are inclined with respect to the rotation axis 36 of the screw 4 so that the first end 31a is located further toward the discharge section 8 (downward) than the second end 31b. The first end 31a of the protrusions 31 is the end facing the rotation direction 33 of the screw 4. The second end 31b of the protrusions 31 is the end facing the opposite direction 34 to the rotation direction 33 of the screw 4. In other words, the protrusions 31 are inclined so that the first end 31a faces downward and the second end 31b faces upward.
図4に示すように、上下方向32において互いに隣り合う上位(一方)の突起部31の第1端部31aと下位(他方)の突起部31の第2端部31bとは、スクリュー4の回転方向33から見て、重複領域Dにおいて重なっている。
As shown in FIG. 4, the first end 31a of the upper (one) protrusion 31 and the second end 31b of the lower (other) protrusion 31 that are adjacent to each other in the vertical direction 32 overlap in an overlap region D when viewed from the rotation direction 33 of the screw 4.
以下、上記構成における作用を説明する。
図1に示すように、スクリューコンベヤ11が作動し、電動機25によってスクリュー4が回転駆動し、プラスチック廃棄物3が投入口10に投入される。投入されたプラスチック廃棄物3は、スクリューコンベヤ11によって投入口10からケーシング2内に供給され、回転するスクリュー4によって下方へ送られながら圧縮されることで温度が上昇して軟化し、ペレット状(円柱状)に成形されて、排出ノズル20から下方へ排出される。 The operation of the above configuration will now be described.
As shown in Fig. 1, thescrew conveyor 11 is operated, the screw 4 is rotated by the electric motor 25, and the plastic waste 3 is fed into the inlet 10. The fed plastic waste 3 is supplied from the inlet 10 into the casing 2 by the screw conveyor 11, and compressed while being sent downward by the rotating screw 4, causing the temperature to rise and soften, and the plastic waste 3 is formed into pellets (cylindrical) and discharged downward from the discharge nozzle 20.
図1に示すように、スクリューコンベヤ11が作動し、電動機25によってスクリュー4が回転駆動し、プラスチック廃棄物3が投入口10に投入される。投入されたプラスチック廃棄物3は、スクリューコンベヤ11によって投入口10からケーシング2内に供給され、回転するスクリュー4によって下方へ送られながら圧縮されることで温度が上昇して軟化し、ペレット状(円柱状)に成形されて、排出ノズル20から下方へ排出される。 The operation of the above configuration will now be described.
As shown in Fig. 1, the
この際、スクリュー4と一体に回転している切断棒28が排出ノズル20から排出されるプラスチック廃棄物3を所定の長さに切断する。これにより、プラスチック廃棄物3から所定の形状(例えばペレット状)の固形燃料が成形される。このようにしてプラスチック廃棄物3から得られた固形燃料を例えば溶融炉等の燃料に使用することができる。
At this time, the cutting rod 28, which rotates together with the screw 4, cuts the plastic waste 3 discharged from the discharge nozzle 20 to a predetermined length. This allows the plastic waste 3 to be molded into solid fuel of a predetermined shape (e.g., pellet-like). The solid fuel obtained from the plastic waste 3 in this way can be used, for example, as fuel for a melting furnace, etc.
ケーシング2内において、スクリュー4が回転している際、プラスチック廃棄物3が突起部31に引っ掛かることにより、プラスチック廃棄物3がスクリュー4と供回りするのを防止することができる。供回りとは、プラスチック廃棄物3がスクリュー4と一緒に回転してしまうことである。
When the screw 4 rotates inside the casing 2, the plastic waste 3 gets caught on the protrusion 31, preventing the plastic waste 3 from rotating together with the screw 4. Rotating together means that the plastic waste 3 rotates together with the screw 4.
また、プラスチック廃棄物3に混入している金属塊等の異物は、スクリュー羽根24と突起部31との間に噛み込みそうになっても、上下方向32において互いに隣り合う突起部31間の通路37(図4参照)を通り抜けて、圧縮成形されたプラスチック廃棄物3と共に排出ノズル20から排出される。
Even if foreign matter such as metal lumps mixed in the plastic waste 3 is about to get caught between the screw blade 24 and the protrusion 31, it passes through the passage 37 (see Figure 4) between adjacent protrusions 31 in the vertical direction 32 and is discharged from the discharge nozzle 20 together with the compressed plastic waste 3.
これにより、プラスチック廃棄物3に混入している異物がスクリュー羽根24と突起部31との間に噛み込んで引っ掛かってしまうのを防止することができる。このため、スクリュー4に過大な負荷が掛かることは無く、スクリュー4や電動機25等の損傷を防止することができる。
This prevents foreign matter mixed in the plastic waste 3 from getting caught between the screw blade 24 and the protrusion 31. As a result, excessive load is not applied to the screw 4, and damage to the screw 4, motor 25, etc. can be prevented.
プラスチック廃棄物3は、突起部31間の通路37を通り抜ける際、図4の矢印E,Fで示すように、傾斜した突起部31の下面(傾斜面)によって、排出部8の方向すなわち下方向へ案内される。これにより、プラスチック廃棄物3は円滑に排出口19を通って排出ノズル20から排出される。
When the plastic waste 3 passes through the passage 37 between the protrusions 31, it is guided by the lower surfaces (inclined surfaces) of the inclined protrusions 31 in the direction of the discharge section 8, i.e., downward, as shown by arrows E and F in Figure 4. This allows the plastic waste 3 to be smoothly discharged from the discharge nozzle 20 through the discharge port 19.
突起部31は、スクリュー4の回転方向33から見て、重複領域Dにおいて重なっている。このため、プラスチック廃棄物3は突起部31間の通路37を通り抜ける際、確実に上下いずれかの突起部31に当たる。これにより、プラスチック廃棄物3は、スクリュー4と供回りするのを確実に防止されるとともに、傾斜した突起部31の下面によって、排出部8の方向すなわち下方向へ確実に案内される。
The protrusions 31 overlap in the overlapping region D when viewed from the rotation direction 33 of the screw 4. Therefore, when the plastic waste 3 passes through the passage 37 between the protrusions 31, it is sure to hit either the upper or lower protrusion 31. This ensures that the plastic waste 3 is prevented from rotating together with the screw 4, and is reliably guided by the inclined underside of the protrusion 31 in the direction of the discharge section 8, i.e., downward.
(第2の実施の形態)
第2の実施の形態では、図5に示すように、排出口19は、上下方向32(スクリュー4の回転軸心36の方向の一例)から見て、スクリュー4の回転軸心36と突起部31とを通る径方向の仮想の直線39上に存在する。 Second Embodiment
In the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, thedischarge port 19 exists on a virtual radial line 39 passing through the rotation axis 36 of the screw 4 and the protrusion portion 31 when viewed from the vertical direction 32 (an example of the direction of the rotation axis 36 of the screw 4).
第2の実施の形態では、図5に示すように、排出口19は、上下方向32(スクリュー4の回転軸心36の方向の一例)から見て、スクリュー4の回転軸心36と突起部31とを通る径方向の仮想の直線39上に存在する。 Second Embodiment
In the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the
これによると、スクリュー4で圧縮されたプラスチック廃棄物3が突起部31に当たることによって、プラスチック廃棄物3に加えられる圧力が突起部31の近傍周辺においてさらに上昇し、プラスチック廃棄物3は、高い圧力によって、円滑且つ確実に排出口19を通り排出ノズル20から押し出される。
As a result, when the plastic waste 3 compressed by the screw 4 hits the protrusion 31, the pressure applied to the plastic waste 3 further increases in the vicinity of the protrusion 31, and the high pressure causes the plastic waste 3 to be pushed smoothly and reliably through the discharge port 19 and out of the discharge nozzle 20.
上記第1および第2の実施の形態では、1組の排出口19と排出ノズル20とをケーシング2の底板16に設けているが、複数組の排出口19と排出ノズル20とを底板16に設けてもよい。
In the first and second embodiments described above, one set of exhaust port 19 and exhaust nozzle 20 is provided on the bottom plate 16 of the casing 2, but multiple sets of exhaust port 19 and exhaust nozzle 20 may be provided on the bottom plate 16.
上記第1および第2の実施の形態では、図1に示すように、スクリュー羽根24は胴体14内の上端部(投入部7に近い方の端部)から下端部(排出部8に近い方の端部)に至る全長に亘って上下方向32に設けられている。これに対応して、複数の突起部31は、上下方向32においてスクリュー羽根24が設けられている範囲に亘って、配列されている。しかしながら、このような形態に限定されるものではなく、例えば、スクリュー羽根24が胴体14内の下部にのみ部分的に設けられていてもよい。この場合も、複数の突起部31は、上下方向32においてスクリュー羽根24が設けられている範囲(すなわち胴体14内の下部)のみに、配列される。
In the first and second embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1, the screw blades 24 are provided in the vertical direction 32 over the entire length of the body 14 from the upper end (the end closer to the input section 7) to the lower end (the end closer to the discharge section 8). Correspondingly, the multiple protrusions 31 are arranged over the range in which the screw blades 24 are provided in the vertical direction 32. However, this is not limited to this form, and for example, the screw blades 24 may be provided only partially in the lower part of the body 14. In this case as well, the multiple protrusions 31 are arranged only in the range in which the screw blades 24 are provided in the vertical direction 32 (i.e., the lower part of the body 14).
上記第1および第2の実施の形態では、プラスチック廃棄物3をスクリュー4で圧縮することにより、プラスチック廃棄物3を昇温させ軟化させているが、プラスチック廃棄物3の温度が十分に上昇しない場合は、ケーシング2の底板16に加熱装置を設け、加熱装置によってプラスチック廃棄物3を十分に昇温させて軟化させてもよい。
In the first and second embodiments described above, the plastic waste 3 is compressed by the screw 4 to raise the temperature of the plastic waste 3 and soften it, but if the temperature of the plastic waste 3 does not rise sufficiently, a heating device may be provided on the bottom plate 16 of the casing 2, and the plastic waste 3 may be sufficiently heated and softened by the heating device.

図6に示すように、プラスチック廃棄物3は、投入口10からケーシング2内に供給され、底胴部51内において回転するスクリュー羽根53によって圧縮されることで温度が上昇して軟化し、ペレット状(円柱状)に成形されて、排出口19から下方へ排出される。 The operation of the above configuration will now be described.
As shown in FIG. 6 , theplastic waste 3 is fed into the casing 2 through the inlet 10, and is compressed by the screw blades 53 rotating inside the bottom body 51, causing the temperature to rise and the plastic waste to soften.
