Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of rubber production, in particular to a method for pretreating rubber raw materials for rubber products. Background Art

[0002] Rubber raw materials are processed from raw rubber, various compounding agents, fiber and metal materials through steps such as plasticizing, mixing, calendering, extrusion, molding, and vulcanization. The processed rubber is mostly packaged and stored in the form of rubber rods. The rubber rods undergo synchronous processing steps according to the different needs of the processed products, such as slicing and pelletizing.

[0003] After searching, the Chinese patent number CN110978074B discloses a method for preprocessing rubber raw materials for rubber products. The method for preprocessing rubber raw materials for rubber products adopts the following rubber raw material preprocessing device, which includes a bottom plate, a support table, a cutting mechanism, a blocking mechanism and a pushing mechanism; the pushing mechanism includes a pushing vertical plate, a multi-stage push rod, a pushing frame and a supporting seat; the method for preprocessing rubber raw materials using the above-mentioned rubber raw material preprocessing device includes the following steps: S1, placing rubber rods; S2, positioning rubber rods; S3, cutting rubber rods; S4, cutting and blanking rubber rods; S5, continuous cutting of rubber rods. The present invention can solve the problems existing in the existing cutting operation of rubber rods: the cutting end of the rubber rod has no limit, resulting in uneven length of the cut rubber rod; the cut rubber slices cannot be automatically transmitted, and the cut of the rubber rod is uneven.

[0004] The existing pretreatment method of rubber raw materials for rubber products effectively solves the problem of uneven length caused by insufficient limiting of the cutting end when cutting the rubber rod by introducing a specific pretreatment device and refining the operation into steps such as rubber rod placement, positioning, cutting, blanking and continuous cutting. However, in an actual industrial production environment, a large amount of waste is generated during the cutting process. These wastes usually include scraps generated during cutting, unqualified slices and residual materials generated by equipment adjustment. If these wastes cannot be processed in a timely and effective manner, not only will a large amount of raw materials be wasted and production costs increased, but also environmental pollution problems may be caused due to improper stacking or processing, such as occupying land resources, polluting water bodies and soil, etc. Based on this, the present invention designs a pretreatment method for rubber raw materials for rubber products to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for pretreating rubber raw materials for rubber products, which solves the problem of waste material treatment in the background technology.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A method for pretreating rubber raw materials for rubber products, comprising the following steps:

[0008] Step S1: placing the rubber rod, placing the rubber rod to be cut on the support table of the pretreatment device;

[0009] Step S2: positioning the rubber rod and measuring the length of the rubber rod using a high-precision laser rangefinder;

[0010] Step S3: Cutting the rubber rod, starting the cutting mechanism to cut, and the cutting mechanism is equipped with a coolant circulation system to reduce the heat generated during the cutting process and avoid thermal deformation of the rubber material;

[0011] Step S4: the rubber rod cuts and the cut rubber sheets and rubber particles are pushed from the cutting area to the collection container by a pneumatic pushing device;

[0012] Step S5: Continuous cutting of rubber rods and waste treatment. A PLC control system is used to realize the continuous cutting operation of the rubber rods. At the same time, a waste collection and treatment module is integrated. The module uses intelligent recognition technology to automatically distinguish qualified products from waste. The waste is crushed by a crusher to a particle size of less than 5 mm and then sent to a waste recovery system for reuse and harmless treatment. The treatment efficiency of the waste recovery system is not less than 100 kg per hour, and the purity of the recovered waste is not less than 90%.

[0013] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that the rubber rod is accurately placed on the support table of the pretreatment device. This step relies on a manual or automated feeding system to ensure the stability of the rubber rod position and lay the foundation for subsequent processing. The high-precision laser rangefinder uses the principle of non-contact measurement to accurately measure the length of the rubber rod by emitting lasers and receiving reflected signals. This technology not only improves the measurement accuracy, but also avoids errors or damage that may be caused by physical contact. The cutting mechanism is started based on the laser ranging results, and an advanced servo control system is used to ensure accurate control of the cutting path. At the same time, the built-in coolant circulation system of the cutting mechanism effectively reduces the heat generated during the cutting process by spraying coolant, preventing the rubber material from affecting the cutting quality due to thermal deformation. The application of the pneumatic pusher further improves production efficiency. It uses the thrust generated by compressed air to quickly and smoothly push the cut rubber sheets and rubber particles from the cutting area to the collection container, avoiding manual intervention and reducing operation time and labor costs.

[0014] Preferably, step S1 comprises the following steps:

[0015] Step S1.1: Place the rubber rod to be cut on the support table of the pretreatment device. The surface of the support table is covered with anti-slip and wear-resistant materials to ensure that the rubber rod is placed firmly and does not slide. Step S1.2: The support table is designed with an automatic centering mechanism, which uses precision sensors to ensure that the center of the rubber rod is aligned with the center of the cutting mechanism, with an alignment accuracy of ±0.2mm. Step S1.3: The support table is equipped with a weighing sensor to monitor the quality of the rubber rod in real time, providing a basis for subsequent cutting parameter adjustments.

[0016] The pretreatment of the rubber rod begins with its stable and precise placement. The non-slip and wear-resistant material covering the surface of the support table is made of high-performance polyurethane or similar materials, which not only provides excellent friction to ensure the stability of the rubber rod before cutting, but also resists wear under long-term use and maintains the flatness and accuracy of the platform. The design of the automatic centering mechanism integrates precision sensors and mechanical transmission systems. By real-time monitoring of the position of the rubber rod, the fine-tuning mechanism is driven to achieve high-precision alignment (±0.2mm) between the center of the rubber rod and the center of the cutting mechanism.

[0017] Preferably, step S2 comprises the following steps:

[0018] Step S2.1: Use a high-precision laser rangefinder (accuracy ±0.1mm) to measure the length of the rubber rod to ensure precise control of the cutting length; Step S2.2: The laser rangefinder is connected to the PLC control system to realize real-time data transmission and analysis, and automatically adjust the cutting program according to the actual length of the rubber rod; Step S2.3: During the positioning process, machine vision technology is used to perform quality inspection on the surface of the rubber rod, identify and mark defective areas, and avoid cutting defective parts.

[0019] The application of high-precision laser rangefinder ensures the accurate measurement of the length of the rubber rod (accuracy ±0.1mm), and this data is fed back to the PLC control system in real time through a high-speed data transmission interface. The PLC system automatically adjusts the cutting program according to the actual length of the rubber rod, including the number of cutting segments and cutting positions, to achieve flexibility and personalized customization of the cutting operation. At the same time, the introduction of machine vision technology uses high-resolution cameras and image processing algorithms to perform quality inspections on the surface of the rubber rod, identify and mark defective areas such as cracks and impurities, and avoid these defects from being cut into products.

[0020] Preferably, step S3 comprises the following steps:

[0021] Step S3.1: Start the cutting mechanism, which uses a diamond blade with a hardness of HRA90 or above to ensure cutting efficiency and cutting surface quality; Step S3.2: The cutting mechanism is equipped with a coolant circulation system. The coolant uses an environmentally friendly water-based cutting fluid with a flow rate controlled at 5-10 liters per minute, which effectively reduces the heat generated during the cutting process and avoids thermal deformation of the rubber material; Step S3.3: During the cutting process, vibration monitoring technology is used to monitor the vibration of the cutting mechanism in real time to ensure cutting accuracy and safety.

[0022] The diamond blade used in the cutting mechanism, with its ultra-high hardness (HRA90 or above) and wear resistance, ensures the high efficiency of the cutting process and the smoothness of the cutting surface. The coolant circulation system uses environmentally friendly water-based cutting fluid, which effectively reduces the heat generated during the cutting process through precisely controlled flow (5-10 liters per minute) and avoids thermal deformation of rubber materials. At the same time, the recycling of cutting fluid reduces resource waste and conforms to the concept of green production. During the cutting process, the use of vibration monitoring technology monitors the vibration of the cutting mechanism in real time through high-precision sensors. Once abnormal vibration is detected, the alarm mechanism is immediately triggered.

[0023] Preferably, step S4 comprises the following steps:

[0024] Step S4.1: Through the pneumatic pushing device, use 0.6-0.8MPa compressed air to push the cut rubber sheets and rubber particles from the cutting area to the collection container; Step S4.2: The collection container is designed with automatic counting and weight detection functions to record the quantity and quality of the cut products in real time; Step S4.3: During the cutting process, vibration monitoring technology is used to monitor the vibration of the cutting mechanism in real time to ensure cutting accuracy and safety.

[0025] The pneumatic pusher uses 0.6-0.8MPa compressed air to push the cut rubber sheets and rubber particles into the collection container smoothly and quickly through the precisely designed airway structure. The collection container is not only designed with automatic counting and weight detection functions, which can record the quantity and quality of the cut products in real time, providing data support for production management and quality control, but also reduces the collision and wear of materials in the container by optimizing the internal structure, ensuring the integrity of the product.

[0026] Preferably, step S5 comprises the following steps:

[0027] Step S5.1: A PLC control system is used to realize the continuous cutting operation of the rubber rod. The system has fault self-diagnosis and alarm functions to ensure that the cutting process is stable and reliable; Step S5.2: An integrated waste collection and processing module is used. The module uses intelligent recognition technology (such as deep learning algorithm) to automatically distinguish qualified products from waste, and the recognition accuracy is not less than 99%; Step S5.3: The waste is crushed by a crusher to a particle size less than 5mm. The crusher uses wear-resistant alloy blades with a service life of not less than 1000 hours; Step S5.4: The crushed waste is sent to the waste recovery system. The system uses high-efficiency screening and separation technology to ensure that the purity of the recycled waste is not less than 95%, and the processing efficiency is not less than 150kg per hour; Step S5.5: The waste recovery system is equipped with an environmentally friendly dust removal device to ensure that the dust content in the air in the working area is less than 0.3mg / m 3 , protecting the health of operators and clean environment.

[0028] Preferably, cutting simulation software, including SolidWorks Flow Simulation, is used to simulate and analyze the cutting process, and cutting parameters are optimized based on the physical properties of the rubber material, including hardness, elastic modulus and thermal conductivity data, and the dynamic characteristics of the cutting mechanism, including blade speed, feed speed and coolant flow rate, to achieve the most efficient and accurate cutting operation, and big data analysis software, including SAP HANA and IBM Watson Analytics software, is used to deeply mine and analyze these data.

[0029] Preferably, the cutting surface quality inspection uses a high-precision 3D scanner to perform 3D scanning on the cutting surface of the rubber material after cutting, obtains the 3D morphology data of the cutting surface, and uses professional quality inspection software (including Geomagic Control and PolyWorks) to process and analyze the scanning data to evaluate the key quality indicators of the flatness, roughness and dimensional accuracy of the cutting surface.

[0030] Preferably, based on the results of cutting surface quality detection, a machine learning algorithm (including support vector machine SVM and random forest RF) is used to establish a prediction model between cutting quality and cutting parameters. When it is detected that the cutting quality does not meet the requirements, the cutting parameters are automatically adjusted and the cutting operation is performed again until the cutting quality meets the established standards.

[0031] Preferably, the method also includes the following system: an integrated intelligent monitoring system, which can monitor key parameters in the cutting process (including cutting mechanism vibration, coolant flow and blade wear) in real time, and use Internet of Things technology (including Zigbee and LoRa) to transmit these data to a cloud server in real time, and use cloud computing and big data technology to perform real-time analysis and processing on these data, so as to promptly discover and warn of potential cutting failures and equipment failures.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are:

[0033] 1. The present invention, through an integrated waste collection and processing module, uses intelligent recognition technology to accurately distinguish qualified products from waste, and crushes the waste to a particle size of less than 5 mm and then sends it to a waste recovery system for reuse and harmless treatment; this improvement significantly reduces the waste of raw materials and reduces production costs, while avoiding environmental pollution problems caused by improper waste treatment, such as land resource occupation, water and soil pollution, etc.

[0034] 2. The present invention uses a high-precision laser rangefinder and machine vision technology to measure the length of the rubber rod and detect the surface quality, ensuring the precise control of the cutting length and accurate identification of the defective area. Combined with the PLC control system and the diamond blade cutting mechanism, the continuous and automatic cutting of the rubber rod is realized, and the cutting efficiency and the smoothness of the cutting surface are improved; at the same time, the use of vibration monitoring technology further ensures the stability and safety of the cutting process, effectively avoiding quality problems caused by insufficient cutting accuracy or equipment failure.

[0035] 3. The present invention optimizes cutting parameters and quality control: the cutting process is simulated and analyzed using cutting simulation software, and the cutting parameters are optimized according to the physical properties of the rubber material and the dynamic characteristics of the cutting mechanism, thereby maximizing the cutting efficiency and accuracy. The cutting surface is three-dimensionally scanned and the quality is evaluated by a high-precision three-dimensional scanner and professional quality inspection software, which can accurately obtain key quality indicators such as the flatness, roughness, and dimensional accuracy of the cutting surface.

[0041] Embodiment 1;

[0042] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 In an embodiment of the present invention, a method for pretreating rubber raw materials for rubber products comprises the following steps:

[0043] Step S1: placing the rubber rod, placing the rubber rod to be cut on the support table of the pretreatment device;

[0044] Step S2: positioning the rubber rod and measuring the length of the rubber rod using a high-precision laser rangefinder;

[0045] Step S3: Cutting the rubber rod, starting the cutting mechanism to cut, and the cutting mechanism is equipped with a coolant circulation system to reduce the heat generated during the cutting process and avoid thermal deformation of the rubber material;

[0046] Step S4: the rubber rod cuts and the cut rubber sheets and rubber particles are pushed from the cutting area to the collection container by a pneumatic pushing device;

[0047] Step S5: Continuous cutting of rubber rods and waste treatment. A PLC control system is used to realize the continuous cutting of rubber rods. At the same time, a waste collection and treatment module is integrated. The module uses intelligent recognition technology to automatically distinguish qualified products from waste. The waste is crushed by a crusher to a particle size of less than 5 mm and then sent to a waste recovery system for reuse and harmless treatment.

[0048] The processing efficiency of the waste recovery system is not less than 100 kg per hour, and the purity of the recovered waste is not less than 90%.

[0049] Step S5 includes the following steps: Step S5.1: A PLC control system is used to realize the continuous cutting operation of the rubber rod. The system has fault self-diagnosis and alarm functions to ensure that the cutting process is stable and reliable; Step S5.2: An integrated waste collection and processing module is used. The module uses intelligent recognition technology (such as deep learning algorithm) to automatically distinguish qualified products from waste, and the recognition accuracy is not less than 99%; Step S5.3: The waste is crushed by a crusher to a particle size less than 5mm. The crusher uses wear-resistant alloy blades with a service life of not less than 1000 hours; Step S5.4: The crushed waste is sent to the waste recovery system.

[0050] The working principle of the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: the rubber rod is accurately placed on the support table of the pretreatment device. This step depends on the manual or automatic feeding system to ensure the stability of the position of the rubber rod, laying the foundation for subsequent processing. The high-precision laser rangefinder uses the non-contact measurement principle to accurately measure the length of the rubber rod by emitting lasers and receiving reflected signals. This technology not only improves the measurement accuracy, but also avoids the errors or damage that may be caused by physical contact. The cutting mechanism is started according to the laser ranging results, and an advanced servo control system is used to ensure the precise control of the cutting path. At the same time, the built-in coolant circulation system of the cutting mechanism effectively reduces the heat generated during the cutting process by spraying coolant, preventing the rubber material from affecting the cutting quality due to thermal deformation. The application of the pneumatic pusher further improves the production efficiency. It uses the thrust generated by compressed air to quickly and smoothly push the cut rubber sheets and rubber particles from the cutting area to the collection container, avoiding manual intervention.

[0051] In the continuous cutting and waste treatment process, the PLC control system, as the brain of the entire pre-treatment process, realizes the continuous and automatic cutting of rubber rods through preset program logic, and has fault self-diagnosis and alarm functions, ensuring the stability and safety of the production process. The integrated waste collection and treatment module uses advanced intelligent recognition technology, such as deep learning algorithms, to accurately classify the waste generated by cutting. Its recognition accuracy is extremely high, effectively avoiding the misjudgment of qualified products.

[0052] After the waste is processed by the crusher, the particle size is strictly controlled below 5mm. The wear-resistant alloy blades used in the crusher are not only hard and wear-resistant, but also reasonably designed to ensure long-term stable operation. The crushed waste enters the waste recycling system, which further purifies the waste through efficient screening and separation technology to ensure that the purity and processing efficiency of the recycled waste meet or exceed the design standards. In addition, the waste recycling system is equipped with an environmentally friendly dust removal device, which uses efficient filtering technology to effectively reduce the dust content in the air in the working area.

[0055] Step S2 includes the following steps: Step S2.1: Use a high-precision laser rangefinder (accuracy ±0.1mm) to measure the length of the rubber rod to ensure precise control of the cutting length; Step S2.2: Connect the laser rangefinder to the PLC control system to realize real-time data transmission and analysis, and automatically adjust the cutting program according to the actual length of the rubber rod; Step S2.3: During the positioning process, use machine vision technology to perform quality inspection on the surface of the rubber rod, identify and mark defective areas, and avoid cutting defective parts.

[0056] Step S3 includes the following steps: Step S3.1: Start the cutting mechanism, which uses a diamond blade with a hardness of HRA90 or above to ensure cutting efficiency and cutting surface quality; Step S3.2: The cutting mechanism is equipped with a coolant circulation system, and the coolant uses an environmentally friendly water-based cutting fluid with a flow rate controlled at 5-10 liters per minute, which effectively reduces the heat generated during the cutting process and avoids thermal deformation of the rubber material; Step S3.3: During the cutting process, vibration monitoring technology is used to monitor the vibration of the cutting mechanism in real time to ensure cutting accuracy and safety.

[0057] Step S4 includes the following steps: Step S4.1: Through the pneumatic pushing device, using 0.6-0.8MPa compressed air, push the cut rubber sheets and rubber particles from the cutting area to the collecting container; Step S4.2: The collecting container is designed with automatic counting and weight detection functions to record the quantity and quality of the cut products in real time; Step S4.3: During the cutting process, vibration monitoring technology is used to monitor the vibration of the cutting mechanism in real time to ensure cutting accuracy and safety.

[0058] The working principle of the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: the pretreatment of the rubber rod begins with its stable and precise placement. The non-slip and wear-resistant material covering the surface of the support table adopts high-performance polyurethane or similar materials, which not only provides excellent friction to ensure the stability of the rubber rod before cutting, but also resists wear under long-term use and maintains the flatness and accuracy of the platform. The design of the automatic centering mechanism integrates precision sensors and mechanical transmission systems. By real-time monitoring of the position of the rubber rod, the fine-tuning mechanism is driven to achieve high-precision alignment (±0.2mm) between the center of the rubber rod and the center of the cutting mechanism.

[0059] The application of high-precision laser rangefinder ensures the accurate measurement of the length of the rubber rod (accuracy ±0.1mm), and this data is fed back to the PLC control system in real time through a high-speed data transmission interface. The PLC system automatically adjusts the cutting program according to the actual length of the rubber rod, including the number of cutting segments and cutting positions, to achieve flexibility and personalized customization of the cutting operation. At the same time, the introduction of machine vision technology uses high-resolution cameras and image processing algorithms to perform quality inspections on the surface of the rubber rod, identify and mark defective areas such as cracks and impurities, and avoid these defects from being cut into products.

[0060] The diamond blade used in the cutting mechanism, with its ultra-high hardness (HRA90 or above) and wear resistance, ensures the high efficiency of the cutting process and the smoothness of the cutting surface. The coolant circulation system uses environmentally friendly water-based cutting fluid, which effectively reduces the heat generated during the cutting process through precisely controlled flow (5-10 liters per minute), avoiding thermal deformation of rubber materials.

During the cutting process, the use of vibration monitoring technology monitors the vibration of the cutting mechanism in real time through high-precision sensors. Once abnormal vibration is detected, the alarm mechanism is immediately triggered.

[0061] In step S4, the pneumatic pusher uses 0.6-0.8MPa compressed air through a precisely designed airway structure to smoothly and quickly push the cut rubber sheets and rubber particles into the collection container. The collection container is not only designed with automatic counting and weight detection functions, which can record the quantity and quality of the cut products in real time, providing data support for production management and quality control, but also reduces the collision and wear of materials in the container by optimizing the internal structure.

[0062] Embodiment 3;

[0063] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 In the embodiment of the present invention, cutting simulation software, including SolidWorks FlowSimulation, is used to simulate and analyze the cutting process. According to the physical properties of the rubber material, including hardness, elastic modulus and thermal conductivity data, and the dynamic characteristics of the cutting mechanism, including blade speed, feed speed and coolant flow rate, the cutting parameters are optimized to achieve the most efficient and accurate cutting operation. Big data analysis software, including SAP HANA and IBM Watson Analytics software, is used to deeply mine and analyze these data.

[0064] Cutting surface quality inspection uses a high-precision 3D scanner to scan the cut surface of the rubber material after cutting, obtains the 3D morphology data of the cut surface, and uses professional quality inspection software (including Geomagic Control and PolyWorks) to process and analyze the scan data to evaluate the key quality indicators of the cut surface flatness, roughness and dimensional accuracy.

[0065] According to the results of cutting surface quality detection, machine learning algorithms (including support vector machine SVM and random forest RF) are used to establish a prediction model between cutting quality and cutting parameters. When it is detected that the cutting quality does not meet the requirements, the cutting parameters are automatically adjusted and the cutting operation is performed again until the cutting quality meets the established standards.

[0067] The working principle of the embodiment of the present invention is: using cutting simulation software such as SolidWorks Flow Simulation to perform a detailed simulation analysis of the cutting process. This analysis is based on the physical properties of the rubber material, such as core data such as hardness, elastic modulus and thermal conductivity, and combines the dynamic characteristics of the cutting mechanism, including key parameters such as blade speed, feed speed and coolant flow. Through the simulation software, the heat conduction, stress distribution and material deformation during the cutting process can be accurately predicted, thereby optimizing the cutting parameters.

[0068] Use high-precision 3D scanners, such as laser scanners or structured light scanners, to perform a full range of 3D scanning on the cut surface of the rubber material after cutting. The scanned data is processed and analyzed by professional quality inspection software such as Geomagic Control and PolyWorks to accurately obtain the 3D topography data of the cut surface, including key quality indicators such as flatness, roughness, and dimensional accuracy.

This model can automatically predict and adjust cutting parameters based on the results of cutting surface quality detection to achieve precise control of cutting quality. When it is detected that the cutting quality does not meet the requirements, the system can respond quickly, automatically adjust the cutting parameters, and re-cut until the cutting quality meets the established standards.
