Complex minute cutting apparatus for super absorbent polymer hydrogel
A complex minute cutting apparatus for a superabsorbent hydrogel is disclosed. The complex minute cutting apparatus includes: a barrel body in which a transfer space through which a hydrogel is transferred is formed and a discharge part is formed at a side surface thereof; a transfer unit installed in the barrel body to transfer the hydrogel in the transfer space; and a plurality of cutting modules installed in the transfer unit to pulverize the hydrogel and discharging it to an outside of the discharge unit in a cut state.
1. A complex minute cutting apparatus for a superabsorbent hydrogel, comprising:
a barrel body comprising:
a transfer space through which a hydrogel is transferred; and
a discharge part at a side surface of the barrel body;
a transfer unit located in the transfer space of the barrel body to transfer the hydrogel in the transfer space, wherein the transfer unit includes a screw member rotatably installed in the transfer space to move the hydrogel; and
a plurality of cutting modules attached to the screw member of the transfer unit in a longitudinal direction to pulverize and discharge the hydrogel through a discharge part in a particle form,
wherein each of the cutting modules includes: a cutter member to pulverize the hydrogel transferred by the transfer unit; and perforated plates to discharge the hydrogel pulverized by the cutter member in a cut state,
wherein
the perforated plate includes a plurality of cutting holes discharging the hydrogel in a particle form,
the hydrogel cuts through the cutting holes to form the particles having a size of the cutting holes.
2. The complex minute cutting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein
the transfer unit further includes:
a driving motor configured to provide a rotational driving force to the screw member.
3. The complex minute cutting apparatus of claim 2 , wherein
the plurality of cutting modules are arranged spaced apart from each other towards the discharge part.
4. The complex minute cutting apparatus of claim 3 , wherein
the cutting holes are formed in the perforated plates to have diameters of different sizes.
5. The complex minute cutting apparatus of claim 4 , wherein
the perforated plate located at a closest position to the discharge part has the cutting holes having a smallest diameter.
6. The complex minute cutting apparatus of claim 2 , wherein
the screw member comprises a plurality of screw threads having a same pitch.
7. The complex minute cutting apparatus of claim 4 , wherein diameters of the cutting holes gradually decreases in a direction of the discharge part.
