Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of shoe upper cooling and shaping, and in particular to a shoe upper rapid cooling and shaping method. Background Art

[0002] Shoe upper shaping is an important process in the shoemaking process. The shaping quality directly affects whether the shoes are comfortable and beautiful to wear. In the prior art, the shoe last is composed of a front last, a back last and a cooling block. Figure 1 As shown, the cooling block is embedded in the front (rear) last, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the flow channel in the refrigeration block is straight, and the distance between the flow channel and the front (rear) last surface is quite different, resulting in uneven surface temperature of the front (rear) last, affecting the shaping effect of the upper; on the other hand, the front (rear) last is cooled by the refrigeration block during operation, and this indirect cooling method is inefficient.

[0003] On the other hand, the cooling and shaping of the upper material in the prior art only stipulates two parameters, cooling and shaping working temperature and time, and does not optimize and control the cooling speed, temperature, time, etc. of the entire cooling and insulation process, so the efficiency and quality of cooling and shaping are not optimal; at the same time, the control method of the shoe last cooling is to control the temperature by determining the start or stop of the compressor based on the signal of the temperature sensor, and the compressor adopts a fixed-frequency compressor. When the upper material in a thermally activated state and with a high temperature is put on the shoe last, the compressor needs to work for a long time to reduce the temperature of the upper material to the process parameter requirements, and this temperature control method relying on the start and stop of the compressor has low accuracy, and the temperature fluctuation range is large during shaping (about ±2°C), which has an adverse effect on the efficiency and quality of shaping.

[0008] The temperature sensor group includes a front last clamping die temperature sensor, a front last temperature sensor, a back last temperature sensor and a front last clamping die temperature sensor; the front last clamping die temperature sensor is arranged on the front last clamping die for sensing the temperature of the front last clamping die; the front last temperature sensor is arranged on the front last for sensing the temperature of the front last; the back last temperature sensor is arranged on the back last for sensing the temperature of the back last; the back last clamping die temperature sensor is arranged on the back last clamping die for sensing the temperature of the back last clamping die;

[0010] In the technical solution, the frequency variation range of the frequency converter is 1-130 Hz, and the frequency converter determines the start and stop and the operating frequency according to the signal of the temperature sensor on the surface of the shoe last.

[0014] In order to achieve the above second object, the present invention is implemented as follows: it is a shoe upper cooling and shaping method, which is characterized by comprising:

[0015] Step 1: Set the cooling and shaping process parameter curve

[0016] According to the different materials of the upper, set the cooling and shaping working temperature, pressure and time process parameter curves of the front last, the front last clamping die, the back last and the back last clamping die;

[0017] Step 2: Place the upper material

[0018] Put the heat-activated upper material on the front and rear lasts, and start the transmission connection mechanism to extend it forward for tensioning;

[0019] Step 3: Cool and shape according to the process parameter curve

[0020] When the temperature sensor of the front last and the temperature sensor of the back last detect that the temperature of the surface of the shoe last rises by more than 2°C within 1 second, the PLC programmable controller controls the frequency converter to make the compressor immediately follow the set cooling and shaping process parameter curve, and changes the working frequency and time of the frequency converter to achieve the purpose of changing the cooling speed and temperature; at the same time, according to the setting of the process parameter curve, the front last clamping cylinder pushes the front last clamping cylinder, and the back last clamping cylinder pushes the back last clamping cylinder, and each presses the upper material at a given working pressure, and the given working pressure is 0.1-0.2MPa;

At the same time, all electronic expansion valves are opened to the maximum flow rate, thereby obtaining a high refrigeration capacity.

[0022] When the process parameter curve is in the slow cooling stage or the heat preservation stage, the PLC programmable controller controls the inverter operating frequency to drop to a lower operating frequency f2, and the lower operating frequency f2 is 25Hz±15Hz. At this time, the PLC programmable controller automatically adjusts the opening size of each electronic expansion valve according to the superheat of the refrigerant to adapt to the compressor operating frequency, thereby achieving energy saving effect;

[0024] After cooling, pressurizing and heat preservation are completed according to the cooling and shaping process curve, the front last clamping mold cylinder, the rear last clamping mold cylinder and the transmission connection mechanism are retracted and released, and the upper material is removed to complete a working cycle.
