摘要:
A hot melt adhesive application apparatus (10) including a thermally-sensitive electronic control assembly (34). The electronic control assembly (34) is adequately thermally insulated from heat generated by the melt tank (76). The electronic control assembly (34) as well as the pneumatic control assembly (60) are positionable so as to face either to the front or to the rear of the apparatus. The apparatus includes a sturdy base (12) by which the apparatus may be lifted without damage to the enclosure. In addition, the tank enclosure includes a flow passage for molten hot melt adhesive that has leaked past the pump shaft to flow back into the tank (76).
摘要:
Des particules solides d'origine minérale notamment les matériaux vitreux et les métaux et d'origine organique notamment les polymères synthétiques sont fondues sous l'action combinée d'une pression supérieure à 50 MPa et d'un gradient de cisaillement supérieur à 5 s. -1 . Ces particules sont soumises à cette action combinée dans une enceinte fermée entre deux plateaux dont l'un au moins est rotatif.
摘要:
A conveyor 4 driven by a motor 5 feeds thermoplastic waste material 2, such as the trimmed-off edges of extruded plastics sheets, to a compression chamber 8 at the inlet of a heating box 10 of an extruder 11. The conveyor operates intermittently in synchronism with the movement of a plunger 40 operated by a hydraulic cylinder 42 which compresses the waste material to the level of a restraining member 50 controlled by a pneumatic cylinder 54. The member 50 comes into operation as the plunger 40 reaches the bottom of its stroke and holds the plastics material in a compressed condition while the plunger 40 rises again, further material 2 is fed to the chamber 8 and the cycle is repeated, the member 50 being withdrawn shortly before the plunger 40 reaches the bottom of its stroke. Plastics material is progressively melted as it passes down the box 10 and under the pressure exerted by the compressed material is extruded through a die plate 16 in the form of strands 18 which, after passing through a water bath 20, are chopped into granules 35 by a rotary cutter 34 and fall into a bin 36 ready for re-use.
摘要:
A fail-safe thermostatically controlled circuit is disclosed for use in high-throughput thermoplastic material melting and dispensing apparatus including a hopper into which solid thermoplastic material is deposited for feeding the thermoplastic material to a grid melter which melts the thermoplastic material whereupon the molten thermoplastic material flows from the grid melter to a reservoir from which the molten thermoplastic material is pumped to an applicator or dispenser. Both the grid melter and the reservoir are preferably heated by electrical resistance heaters (33, 41) energized by separate fail-safe thermostatically controlled circuits. Each fail-safe thermostatically controlled circuit includes a manually adjustable thermostat (35, 43) for sensing the temperature of the molten thermoplastic material in order to connect a high voltage and current power source through a fusible element (64, 64') included in fail-safe circuitry to the electrical resistance heaters for energizing the electrical resistance heaters when the temperature of the molten thermoplastic material is below a preselected thermostat temperature setting. The fail-safe circuitry also includes a shut-off temperature detector (48, 49) for sensing the temperature of the molten thermoplastic material in order to energize a heat generating element (67, 67') for melting the fusible element if the temperature of the molten thermoplastic material reaches a predetermined shut-off temperature which is above the preselected thermostat temperature setting, thereby disconnecting the power source from the electrical resistance heaters.
