Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of sponge foaming production devices, in particular to a high-pressure foaming nozzle device. Background Art
[0002] The main raw materials for sponge foaming are: isocyanate, polyether polyol, water, auxiliary foaming agent MC, amine, organotin, silicone stabilizer, cross-linking agent, pore opener, flame retardant, yellowing agent, antioxidant, colorant, etc. Isocyanate is mainly used in soft foam sponge, TDI and modified MDI, or a mixture of the two, for the convenience of description, they are collectively referred to as TDI; polyether polyols also have two major categories, polyether polyols and grafted polyether polyols, each of which is divided into many varieties according to molecular weight, functionality and structure. In actual foaming, one or more are mixed, for the convenience of description, they are collectively referred to as PPG; water and other amines, organotin, silicone stabilizers, cross-linking agents, pore openers, flame retardants, yellowing agents, antioxidants, colorants, etc. are used in small amounts in the foaming formula ratio, and the volume of the raw material tank is relatively small. For the convenience of description, they are collectively referred to as small materials. At present, sponge foaming is mainly made of TDI, PPG, water, amine, organic tin, stabilizer, and other MC and small materials are selected according to needs. These raw materials are mixed and foamed in a mixer, and then output, flowing from the nozzle through a screen onto the foaming paper. Its existing structure can refer to the structure disclosed in a sponge continuous foaming machine disclosed in Chinese Patent No.: CN201610187064.6, and can also refer to the Chinese Patent No.: 201921530449.3 applied by the applicant, which discloses a sponge nozzle foaming device without a foam head and a bean hole.
[0003] The current process is to input PPG into each PPG input tank, input small materials into each small material input tank, and input TDI into the TDI input tank. According to the sequence of input time set by PLC, the materials are input into the mixer, mixed by stirring in the mixer, and then flow to the nozzle. The nozzle reciprocates left and right above the oven drop plate, which is lined with foam paper. The mixed material passes through the screen of the nozzle and is sprayed evenly onto the foam paper. The mixed material flows forward on the oven drop plate with a certain inclination. Through chemical reaction, the mixed material begins to turn white and the volume increases, thereby realizing the foaming of the raw materials and generating sponges. However, the input TDI pressure is low, generally less than 10kgf / cm2, and the mixing reaction with other raw materials is not sufficient. The utilization efficiency of TDI is not 100%. In addition, the pore structure of the sponge cannot be very fine due to the low TDI pressure. There are also TDI high-pressure nozzle devices on the market, but they are generally input directly from the top of the mixer. First, the number of installed nozzles is limited by the installation position and structure, and the number is generally not large, usually 2 to 3. Second, TDI pressure is generally adjusted pneumatically, and it takes a certain amount of time to adjust to the set TDI pressure. Third, TDI nozzles are easily blocked, and they need to be removed and cleaned for each production. Fourth, the mixed material flows vertically, and it is difficult for TDI to mix evenly with the mixed material immediately after it is sprayed out, and large bubbles are easily formed. Summary of the invention

[0041] Reference Fig.10 , which is another application of the TDI nozzle mechanism. The TDI nozzle mechanism 1 can also be placed on the mixer 3. No valves are provided on the inner input pipe 11 on both sides of the outer input pipe. The inner input pipe 11 is directly connected to the mixing drum of the mixer 3. The inner diameter of the inner input pipe 11 is the same as the inner diameter of the mixing drum of the mixer 3. The inner input pipe and the mixer mixing drum are integrated.
[0042] refer to Fig.11 , which is another application mode of the TDI nozzle mechanism. The TDI nozzle mechanism 1 can also be set separately. The TDI nozzle mechanism 1 and other raw materials enter the mixer 3 separately and then are mixed. This mixing method is not as good as the mixing methods of the above two structures. It is set according to the specific situation.
[0043] The working mode of the present invention is:
[0044] According to the situation of the sponge, during the preparation period, adjust the temperature of each raw material, then start the circulation pump, PPG, MC, various small materials, and TDI for self-circulation, set the flow rate per minute of each raw material, when the temperature reaches the production requirement and the flow rates are stable, start the foaming switch, and according to the sequence set by the PLC, the two valves 112 are opened, and the valves of each raw material are changed from the circulation position to the foaming position. PPG, MC and various small materials enter the internal input pipeline 11, and at the same time, valves 26 and valve 27 are opened, and the reflux valve 25 is closed with a delay (the delay time can be set on the PLC according to the specific situation), TDI enters the closed cavity 10, and the rotating sleeve 14 drives the piston 13 to move inward, so that the gap between the round hole 111 and the cone at the end of the piston 13 becomes The pressure of TDI increases. When the pressure of TDI exceeds the production process requirement, the rotation of sleeve 14 is stopped; high-pressure TDI enters the inner input pipe 11 from the outer input pipe 12 through the circular hole 111, changes to low pressure, and is in a spraying state. The sprayed TDI is in a mist state, collides and mixes with the PPG mixed material in the pipe 11, and the mixed raw materials enter the mixer 3 for further stirring and mixing, so that the TDI is mixed more fully and the reaction is more complete, which improves the reaction rate of TDI, saves about 5% of TDI, reduces production costs, and improves the utilization rate of raw materials. In addition, the high-pressure TDI changes to low pressure, releases a large amount of energy, which is conducive to the formation of sponge pores. The sponge pores produced are more delicate and regular, thereby improving the quality of the sponge. After the foaming is completed, the valves of various raw materials are switched from the foaming position to the circulation position, and at the same time, the valve 112 is closed, and the valves 75 and 72 of the cleaning mechanism are opened (valves 73 and 74 must be closed). The cleaning liquid MC flows from the cavity 10 of the external input pipe through the gap between the piston 13 and the circular hole 111, into the cavity 113 of the internal input pipe, and is discharged from the cleaning valve 151. After the cleaning is completed, the cleaning valve 151 is closed, and DOP can be injected into the cavity 10 and the cavity 113 to soak the gap between the piston 13 and the circular hole 111 for a long time, thereby ensuring that the gap between the piston and the circular hole will not be blocked.
