Each sub-base 1521 extends in the same direction as the protrusions, that is, each sub-base 1521 extends around the rotation axis O1 and extends synchronously along the rotation axis O1, so that a plurality of protrusions 151 are formed on each sub-base 1521. After the kneading apparatus 1 is used for a long period of time, only the more worn sub-body 1521 may be replaced, thereby reducing maintenance costs for the kneading apparatus 1.
Through the above embodiment, the substrate 152 is divided into the plurality of sub-substrates 1521, and only the plurality of sub-substrates 1521 are required to be manufactured separately, and then the obtained sub-substrates 1521 are spliced to obtain the spiral structure 15, so that the processing difficulty of the spiral structure 15 can be reduced, and the production efficiency can be improved.
Referring to fig. 1 to 5, fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment in which a kneading structure is disposed on an outer wall surface of an inner cylinder.
In one embodiment, the kneading assembly 10 includes a kneading structure 14 provided on the other of the outer wall surface of the inner cylinder 11 and the inner wall surface of the outer cylinder, the kneading structure 14 being provided with at least two about the rotation axis O1.
The number of the kneading structures 14 may be set according to practical situations, and for example, the number of the kneading structures 14 may be 2, 5, 6 or 7, etc., for example, in fig. 3, the number of the kneading structures 14 is 8, where at least two kneading structures 14 may be disposed adjacently. Such as a first end 141 of one kneading structure 14 adjacent a second end 142 of another kneading structure 14. The kneading structure 14 rotates along with the rotation of the inner cylinder 11, the thickness of the second end 142 is greater than the thickness of the first end 141, and the extending direction from the second end 142 to the first end 141 can be the same as the direction of the inner cylinder 11, so as to allow the first end 141 of the same kneading structure 14 to contact the material in the kneading cavity 13 earlier than the second end 142 when the material is kneaded by the kneading device 1. Illustratively, when the kneading structure 14 rotates clockwise about the rotation axis O1, the direction in which the second end 142 of the same kneading structure 14 extends to the first end 141 is clockwise; when the kneading structure 14 rotates counterclockwise about the rotation axis O1, the direction in which the second end 142 of the same kneading structure 14 extends to the first end 141 is counterclockwise.
Through the above embodiment, when the inner cylinder 11 and the outer cylinder 12 rotate relatively, the material contacts the first end 141 with a smaller thickness in the material kneading structure 14 and then contacts the second end 142 with a larger thickness, so as to simulate the form of rubbing the material by hand in the traditional manual operation.
In one embodiment, the difference between the thickness of the second end 142 and the thickness of the first end 141 is between 5mm and 30mm. Illustratively, the difference between the thickness of the second end 142 and the thickness of the first end 141 may be 5mm, 10mm, 20mm, or 30mm. Illustratively, the first end 141 may have a thickness of 10mm, and the second end 142 may have a thickness of between 15mm and 30mm, e.g., the second end 142 may have a thickness of 15mm, 20mm, 30mm, or 40mm.
By setting the difference between the thickness of the second end 142 and the first end 141, the gap difference at different positions in the kneading cavity 13 can be regulated, i.e. the maximum pressure and the minimum pressure difference to which the material is subjected in the kneading cavity 13 can be controlled artificially. The thickness difference between the first end 141 and the second end 142 is smaller than 30mm, so that the problem that the materials are damaged due to large extrusion force difference caused by large thickness difference of the material kneading structure 14 can be avoided; the thickness difference between the first end 141 and the second end 142 is greater than 5mm, so that insufficient kneading of materials due to small extrusion force difference of the materials caused by small thickness difference of the kneading structure 14 can be avoided.
Referring to fig. 1-6, fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a pressing structure provided in the present application.
In an embodiment, the kneading assembly 10 further includes a pressing structure 143 for pressing two adjacent kneading structures 14, the pressing structure 143 includes a first pressing portion 1431, a second pressing portion 1432, and an intermediate transition portion 1433 connecting the first pressing portion 1431 and the second pressing portion 1432, the first pressing portion 1431 and the second pressing portion 1432 bend and extend reversely relative to the intermediate transition portion 1433, the first pressing portion 1431 presses the first end 141 of one kneading structure 14, and the second pressing portion 1432 presses the second end 142 of the other kneading structure 14.
The pressing structure 143 is formed in a zigzag shape by the first pressing portion 1431, the second pressing portion 1432, and the intermediate transition portion 1433. The intermediate transition 1433 abuts against the side surface of the end of the kneading structure 14 where the thickness is greater. Wherein, the pressing structure 143 may be screwed with the kneading structure 14, and in other embodiments, the pressing structure 143 may be connected with the kneading structure 14 by other forms, such as a buckle, etc.
Through the above embodiment, the material kneading structure 14 is pressed by the pressing structure 143, so that the material kneading structure 14 and the inner cylinder 11 are detachably connected. When the rubbing structure 14 is worn greatly and affects the rubbing effect, the rubbing structure 14 can be replaced by directly disassembling the pressure releasing and holding structure 143, so that the subsequent use and maintenance of the kneading device 1 are facilitated.
In the present embodiment, the case where the kneading structure 14 is provided on the outer wall surface of the inner cylinder 11 is shown for discussion purposes only, and the installation position of the kneading structure 14 is not limited thereto, but in other embodiments, the kneading structure 14 may be provided on the inner wall surface of the outer cylinder 12.
The axis of rotation O1 is perpendicular to the horizontal plane in which the kneading device 1 is located, i.e. the kneading device 1 can be considered as a vertical structure. The spiral structure 15 may be provided on the outer wall surface of the inner cylinder 11 or the inner wall surface of the outer cylinder 12.
