Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying equipment, specifically to a drying and shaping device. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon fibers may absorb moisture during upstream processes (such as spinning and sizing). To avoid problems in subsequent processing, carbon fibers need to be dried to remove this moisture. In production, drying and shaping carbon fibers is one of the key steps in carbon fiber production. It is mainly used to remove moisture or solvents from carbon fibers and to give them specific shapes and properties.

[0003] In the existing technology, the carbon fiber-coated cylinder is moved into the drying box, where the carbon fiber is heated, dried and shaped. However, since the temperature of different parts of the drying box may vary, and the cylinder is stationary in the drying box, the drying degree of different areas of the carbon fiber may be inconsistent. Some areas may be overheated, while other areas may be under-dried, resulting in uneven heating of the carbon fiber during drying. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and provide a drying and shaping device that solves the problem that uneven heating of carbon fiber is easily caused when the carbon fiber-coated cylinder is directly placed in the drying oven for drying in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model provides a drying and shaping device, comprising:

[0007] A drying mechanism, wherein a drying chamber is provided within the drying mechanism;

[0008] A moving mechanism, capable of entering and exiting the drying chamber; and,

[0009] A rotating mechanism includes a driving component, a clamping component, and a first supporting component. The driving component is mounted on the moving mechanism, and its output end is connected to the clamping component and can drive the clamping component to rotate. The clamping component can fix one end of a cylinder covered with carbon fiber. The first supporting component is movably mounted on the moving mechanism and is used to support the other end of the cylinder.

[0010] In one embodiment, the clamping member is a three-jaw chuck or a four-jaw chuck.

[0011] In one embodiment, the support includes a base, a first adjusting member, and two rolling parts. The base is movably mounted on the moving mechanism, the first adjusting member is mounted on the base, and the two rolling parts are slidably mounted on the base and connected to the first adjusting member. The first adjusting member can drive the two rolling parts to move closer or further apart, and the two rolling parts can abut against the cylinder.

[0012] In one embodiment, the first adjusting member includes a bidirectional lead screw and a rotating handwheel. The bidirectional lead screw is rotatably mounted on the base and has two threaded sections with opposite thread directions. The rotating handwheel is fixed to one end of the bidirectional lead screw.

[0013] The rolling part includes a slider and a support roller. The slider is slidably connected to the base and rotatably connected to a threaded section of the bidirectional lead screw. The support roller is rotatably mounted on the slider.

[0014] In one embodiment, the rotating mechanism further includes a second adjusting member, which is mounted on the moving mechanism and connected to the base, and is used to drive the base closer to or further away from the driving member.

[0015] In one embodiment, the rotating mechanism further includes a second support member, which is mounted on the moving mechanism and close to the driving member, and is used to support one end of the cylinder.

[0019] In one embodiment, the power unit further includes a reel and a traction rope. The reel is fixedly connected to the output end of the forward and reverse motor. One end of the traction rope is fixedly connected to the reel and is wound onto the reel. The other end of the traction rope is fixedly connected to the drying mechanism.

[0020] In one embodiment, the drying mechanism is an electric heating oven, an infrared heating oven, or a hot air circulating oven.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a drying and shaping device, which includes a drying chamber within the drying mechanism, a moving mechanism that can enter and exit the drying chamber, and a rotating mechanism including a driving component, a clamping component, and a first support component.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0027] To address the technical problem of uneven heating of carbon fiber coated cylinders when directly placed in a drying oven for drying in existing technologies, this solution provides a drying and shaping device that drives the carbon fiber coated cylinder to rotate continuously within the drying mechanism, ensuring uniform heating of the carbon fiber.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-4 , Figures 1-4A drying and shaping device according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a drying mechanism 1, a moving mechanism 2, and a rotating mechanism 3. The drying mechanism 1 has a drying chamber. The moving mechanism 2 can enter and exit the drying chamber. The rotating mechanism 3 includes a driving member 31, a clamping member 32, and a first support member 33. The driving member 31 is mounted on the moving mechanism 2. The output end of the driving member 31 is connected to the clamping member 32 and can drive the clamping member 32 to rotate. The clamping member 32 can fix one end of the cylinder A covered with carbon fiber. The first support member 33 is movably mounted on the moving mechanism 2 and is used to support the other end of the cylinder.

[0029] In actual use, one end of the cylinder covered with carbon fiber needs to be fixed by the clamping member 32, and the other end of the cylinder is supported by the first support member 33. The moving mechanism 2 moves into the drying chamber and drives the clamping member 32 to rotate by the driving member 31, thereby driving the cylinder to rotate around its own axis, so that the carbon fiber covered on the cylinder A can be heated evenly.

[0030] It should be noted that, in one embodiment, the clamping member 32 is not limited to a specific structure, as long as it can clamp and fix one end of the cylindrical body, no other limitations are made here.

[0031] It is understood that the clamping member 32 is a three-jaw chuck. Of course, in other embodiments, the clamping member 32 can also be a four-jaw chuck. The three-jaw chuck is a commonly used structure in the prior art, such as the three-jaw chuck structure disclosed in the document with patent number CN208895216U.

[0032] It should be noted that the support member is not limited to a specific structure. In one embodiment, the support member 33 includes a base 331, a first adjusting member 332, and two rolling parts 333. The base 331 is movably mounted on the moving mechanism 2. The first adjusting member 332 is mounted on the base 331. The two rolling parts 333 are slidably mounted on the base 331 and connected to the first adjusting member 332. The first adjusting member 332 can drive the two rolling parts 333 to move closer or further apart, and the two rolling parts 333 can abut against the cylinder.

[0033] It is understood that the clamping member 32 can fix cylinders A with different inner diameters. In order to ensure that the two rolling parts 333 can always abut against the cylinder, the distance between the two rolling parts 333 is adjusted by the first adjusting member 332 to adapt to cylinders A with different inner diameters.

[0034] It should be noted that, in one embodiment, the first adjusting member 332 includes a bidirectional lead screw 3321 and a rotating handwheel 3322. The bidirectional lead screw 3321 is rotatably mounted on the base 331. The bidirectional lead screw 3321 has two threaded sections with opposite thread directions. The rotating handwheel 3322 is fixed to one end of the bidirectional lead screw 3321. The rolling part 333 includes a slider 3331 and a support roller 3332. The slider 3331 is slidably connected to the base 331 and rotatably connected to one threaded section of the bidirectional lead screw 3321. The support roller 3332 is rotatably mounted on the slider 3331.

[0035] It is understandable that when cylinder A is placed on the two support rollers 3332, the axis of cylinder A is aligned with the axis of the two support rollers 3332.

[0036] Based on the above scheme, specifically, the rotating mechanism 3 further includes a second adjusting member 34, which is mounted on the moving mechanism 2 and connected to the base 331. The second adjusting member 34 is used to drive the base 331 to move closer to or away from the driving member 31.

[0037] It should be noted that the second adjusting member 34 is not limited to a specific structure. In this specific embodiment, the second adjusting member 34 includes a threaded screw rotatably mounted on the moving mechanism 2. The threaded screw is threadedly rotatably connected to the base 331. By rotating the threaded screw, the base 331 can be driven to slide relative to the moving mechanism 2.

[0038] Based on the above scheme, in order to improve the support stability of the cylinder A, the rotating mechanism 3 further includes a second support member 35. The second support member 35 is installed on the moving mechanism 2 and close to the driving member 31. The second support member 35 is used to support one end of the cylinder.

[0039] It should be noted that the second support member 35 is not limited to a specific structure; the second support member 35 has the same structure as the first support member 33.

[0040] It should be noted that, based on the above scheme, the moving mechanism 2 has multiple rotating shafts 21 with rotating arrangements, and rollers 22 are fixed at both ends of each rotating shaft 21; the moving mechanism 2 also has at least one power unit 23, the power unit 23 including a forward and reverse motor 231, a drive sprocket 232, a driven sprocket 233 and a chain 234, the drive sprocket 232 is fixedly connected to the output end of the forward and reverse motor 231, the driven sprocket 233 is fixedly mounted on one of the rotating shafts 21, and the chain 234 is connected between the drive sprocket 232 and the driven sprocket 233.

[0041] It is understandable that by driving the active sprocket 232 to rotate through the forward and reverse motor 231, the rotating shaft 21 can be driven to rotate, thus enabling the moving mechanism 2 to move along a preset direction.

[0042] Based on the above scheme, it also includes two guide rails 4, which are parallel and spaced apart and extend into the drying chamber. The two rollers 22 at opposite ends of the rotating shaft 21 are respectively slidably engaged with the two guide rails 4.

[0043] It should be noted that, based on the above scheme, in order to prevent the moving mechanism 2 from slipping off the two guide rails, the power unit 23 specifically includes a coil 235 and a traction rope 236. The coil 235 is fixedly connected to the output end of the forward and reverse motor 231. One end of the traction rope 236 is fixedly connected to the coil 235 and the traction rope 236 is wound on the coil 235. The other end of the traction rope 236 is fixedly connected to the drying mechanism 1.

[0044] Understandably, when the moving mechanism 2 enters the drying chamber, the forward and reverse motor 231 can drive the coil 235 to wind up the traction rope 236; when the moving mechanism 2 leaves the drying chamber, the forward and reverse motor 231 can drive the coil 235 to unwind the traction rope 236.

[0045] It should be noted that, in one embodiment, the drying mechanism 1 is a hot air circulating oven. Of course, in other embodiments, the drying mechanism 1 can also be an electric heating oven or an infrared heating oven. Specifically, the drying mechanism 1 is a commonly used drying mechanism in the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0046] The specific embodiments of this utility model described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made based on the technical concept of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
