Description

Technical Field

[0001] This patent application relates to a device for producing natural silk reeling, and more particularly to a device for producing silk from wild silkworms, especially tussah silkworms. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional tussah silkworm cocoon silk reeling uses vertical reeling machines. These machines require a large workforce, involve high labor intensity, operate in extremely poor conditions, and produce low output and quality that fails to meet the requirements of high-grade silk. While automatic tussah silkworm cocoon reeling machines, such as the one disclosed in patent document CN103938279A, represent a significant technological advancement over traditional methods, they still rely on the "floating and sinking" principle of mulberry silkworm reeling. This makes their practical application in tussah silkworm cocoon reeling almost entirely ineffective, let alone suitable for industrial-scale operation. Despite long-term research, technical personnel face numerous technical challenges, and insurmountable technical bottlenecks remain.

[0003] The so-called "reeling, floating, sinking, and settling" simply means controlling the water content of the cocoon cavity. Without the pulling of the reeling silk, such as broken or unreeled cocoons, they will naturally sink to the bottom of the water. Only cocoons with reeling silk will float on the surface of the water because they are pulled by the reeling silk.

[0004] Existing silk reeling machines have a front mechanism for organizing silkworm cocoons, which then feeds the cocoons into the rear reeling section to complete the reeling process. Therefore, the ability of the organizing mechanism to efficiently organize the cocoons, automatically separate cocoons with and without threads, and ensure a continuous and stable supply of cocoons to the reeling section, with all cocoons being cocoons with threads being cocoons with threads, is a prerequisite for achieving automated silk reeling operations.

[0005] According to the principle of "reeling, floating, sinking, and settling," there are relatively strict requirements for the quality of silkworm cocoons, and complex processing of the raw materials is required.

[0006] 1. The quality requirements for silkworm cocoons are very strict.

[0007] Current automatic silk reeling machines are only suitable for silk reeling operations of mulberry silkworms. Because mulberry silkworms are currently all domesticated, they can be domesticated to produce silkworm cocoons with uniform shape, size, and cocoon thickness. Therefore, after the unwinding process, it is easy to obtain unwinding cocoons with uniform moisture content that are suitable for automatic silk reeling operations of the "floating and sinking" silk reeling machine, and a predictable silk reeling output can also be obtained.

[0008] Although both tussah silkworms and mulberry silkworms belong to the genus Bombyx mori, they have different growth environments. Tussah silkworms are still mainly raised in the wild, resulting in great differences in the shape, size, and thickness of the cocoons, which makes it difficult to be consistent and becomes the biggest technical obstacle to the "reeling, floating, sinking, and sinking" process.

[0009] 2. As mentioned above, consistent cocoon size is a key technical requirement for automated and stable silk reeling based on the "floating and sinking" process. Only cocoons that meet the requirements of consistent cocoon shape, size, and cocoon layer thickness can satisfy the technical requirement of consistent moisture content in the cocoon cavity for "floating and sinking." This necessitates unwinding and vacuum dehydration treatment before feeding the cocoons into the reeling machine to control the cocoon material to achieve the required moisture content. Existing technologies cannot achieve this technical standard for wild-raised tussah silkworm cocoons, which exhibit significant differences in cocoon shape, size, and cocoon layer thickness. Besides the large differences in cocoon shape, size, and cocoon layer thickness due to their natural wild growth, tussah silkworm cocoons also experience significant water loss during processes such as cocoon removal, transportation, silk reeling, pupa-lined separation, secondary threading, and secondary thread sorting, resulting in vastly different moisture contents. Therefore, the "floating and sinking" reeling machine cannot achieve industrialized operation of tussah silkworm cocoon silk reeling, becoming a key technical obstacle and bottleneck for the development of the tussah silk industry. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The purpose of this patent application is to overcome the technical bottleneck in the application of existing silk reeling machines for tussah silkworm cocoon reeling, solve the technical problem that existing silk reeling machine equipment cannot implement automatic, continuous and stable industrial operation of tussah silkworm cocoon reeling, and provide an automatic silk reeling machine device for tussah silkworm cocoons.

[0011] The technical solution of the automatic silk reeling and winding machine for tussah silkworm cocoons provided in this patent application is as follows: an automatic silk reeling and winding machine for tussah silkworm cocoons, including a winding assembly and a reeling assembly connected to the winding assembly and the cocoon opening; wherein the winding assembly comprises a cocoon preparation pot, a winding pot, a winding rotary brush mechanism, a toothed winding mechanism, an automatic winding mechanism, an eccentric disc, a winding disc, a winding disc, and a hydraulic mechanism;

[0012] The aforementioned swivel pot is a pot body surrounding the swivel rotary brush mechanism;

[0013] Between the cocoon preparation pot and the thread-sorting pot, there is a first cocoon-adding lifting hopper for adding material to the thread; between the thread-sorting pot and the automatic thread-sorting pot, there is a second cocoon-adding lifting hopper and a threadless cocoon return hopper.

[0014] The second cocoon lifting bucket and the uncocoon return bucket are respectively located on the side of the cocoon return brush mechanism that rotates towards the automatic cocoon sorting pot and on the side that rotates back to the cocoon sorting pot.

[0015] The staggered thread guiding mechanism is located on the dam platform extending from the second cocoon lifting bucket to the automatic thread sorting pot;

[0016] The silk reeling pot is equipped with a water level adjustment overflow pipe that adjusts the water level to 1.5-3 times the average diameter of the silk cocoon belly.

[0017] One preferred embodiment of the above overall technical solution is that the automatic thread-sorting pot includes a first pot area on one side of the dam platform of the second cocoon lifting bucket, a second pot area extending obliquely to the unsorted cocoon return bucket on the outer side of the dam platform, and the remaining pot areas of the automatic thread-sorting pot as a third pot area.

[0018] The eccentric disc and the guide disc are arranged sequentially on the extension line from the first pot area to the third pot area; the winding disc is located on the side of the cocoon opening.

[0019] The hydrodynamic mechanism includes a first water flow drive unit located in the first boiler zone, a second water flow drive unit located in the third boiler zone, and a third water flow drive unit.

[0020] The first water flow driving part is a flow outlet located at the bottom of the pot, where the water flows towards the eccentric plate;

[0021] The second water flow drive unit is a water surface jet assembly that sprays water toward the cocoon opening;

[0022] The third water flow drive unit is a water jet assembly that sprays water towards the water surface at the boundary or near the boundary between the third pot area and the second pot area. The automatic silk reeling machine for tussah silkworm cocoons provided in this patent application aims to eliminate the "floating and sinking" reeling principle of existing silkworm cocoon reeling machines and overcome the stringent requirements of existing machines regarding the uniformity of cocoon shape, size, and layer thickness. This eliminates the difficult-to-master and costly vacuum water absorption process, replacing the "floating and sinking" principle with "floating cocoon reeling," avoiding the complex and difficult-to-control vacuum water absorption process and the need for expensive vacuum water absorption equipment, thus making automated reeling of wild tussah silkworm cocoons possible. Before feeding cocoons and reeling silk, this system begins with thread arrangement, achieving fully automated thread arrangement, including secondary thread arrangement, thread sorting, and cocoon feeding. It solves technical problems such as poor secondary thread arrangement capability, low secondary thread arrangement rate, difficulty in separating clean and unsorted cocoons during the "floating and sinking" process, and obstacles to a continuous and stable automated cocoon feeding process. This provides clean cocoons that meet the requirements for subsequent automated and stable reeling, ensuring continuous cocoon feeding and reeling operations while improving the efficiency and recovery rate of tussah silkworm silk reeling. This technical solution breaks through the technical bottleneck of fully automated industrialized reeling operations for wild silkworms, removing the technical obstacles hindering the industrialization of wild silkworm silk reeling. It becomes a fully-load automated reeling system that meets the requirements of industrialized tussah silk reeling operations, achieving economic benefits comparable to those of mulberry silkworms in industrialized tussah silk production.

[0025] The following section will elaborate on the technical content and application effects of the automatic silk reeling machine for tussah silkworm cocoons in this patent application, based on the inventive concept of this application.

[0026] This automatic silk reeling machine for tussah silkworm cocoons, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it consists of a serif assembly A and a silk reeling assembly B connected to the serif assembly A with a cocoon opening 16.

[0027] The main cable-training assembly A comprises a cocoon preparation pot 3, a cable-training pot 6, a cable-training rotary brush mechanism 7, a toothed cable-training mechanism 2, an automatic cable-training pot 10, an eccentric disc 11, a cable-training disc 4, a winding disc 13, and a hydrodynamic mechanism.

[0028] The thread-feeding pot 6 is a pot body surrounding the thread-feeding rotary brush mechanism 7. A first cocoon-adding lifting bucket 5 for adding cocoons to the thread-feeding pot 6 is located between the cocoon preparation pot 3 and the thread-feeding pot 6. Between the thread-feeding pot 6 and the automatic thread-sorting pot 10, a second cocoon-adding lifting bucket 9 and a cocoon-returning bucket 18 are located; the second cocoon-adding lifting bucket 9 and the cocoon-returning bucket 18 are respectively located on the side of the thread-feeding rotary brush mechanism 7 that rotates towards the automatic thread-sorting pot 10 and the side that rotates back towards the thread-feeding pot 6. The toothed thread-guiding mechanism 2 is located on the second cocoon-adding lifting bucket 9 and extends to the dam 17 of the automatic thread-sorting pot 10.

[0029] The reeling pot 6 is equipped with a water level adjusting overflow pipe 8, which consistently adjusts the water level in the reeling pot 6 to a height 1.5-3 times the average diameter of the cocoon belly of the reeled cocoons, with an optimal value of 2-2.5. This improves the reeling rate and effect of the reeling rotary brush mechanism 7 on wild silkworm cocoons of various forms, especially tussah cocoons, which are floating. It overcomes the limitations of existing "floating and sinking" technology for reeling tussah cocoons, and avoids the complex and difficult-to-control vacuum water absorption process and its expensive vacuum water absorption equipment. It adopts "floating cocoon reeling" and its corresponding... The structure and operation mode of the reeling system have opened up a technical channel for continuous and stable operation from reeling cocoons made from tussah silkworm cocoons as feed cocoons. This solves the problem that the "floating and sinking" reeling technology cannot control wild silkworm cocoons to a consistent water absorption rate through cocoon unwinding and vacuum water absorption processes. It also solves the technical problems that existing reeling machines cannot effectively reel raw cocoons from "floating cocoons", especially the poor secondary reeling ability, low secondary reeling rate, and difficulty in effectively separating clear and unreeled cocoons, which hinders the continuous automatic cocoon feeding process and the continuous operation of automatic reeling or silk reeling, making it difficult to industrialize the reeling of wild silkworm cocoons.

[0030] The automatic cocoon-raising pot 10 can be divided into three sections: a first pot area I on one side of the dam platform of the second cocoon-lifting bucket 9; a second pot area II extending obliquely from the outer side of the dam platform 17 to the cocoon-returning bucket 18; and the remaining pot areas of the automatic cocoon-raising pot 10, forming a third pot area III. The first pot area I is a relatively narrow waterway leading to the open water area of ​​the third pot area III, which is connected to the relatively open water area of ​​the second pot area II.

[0031] The eccentric disc 11 and the guide disc 4 are sequentially arranged on the waterway extending from the first pot area I to the third pot area III; the winding disc 13 is arranged on one side of the cocoon opening 16.

[0032] The hydrodynamic mechanism includes: a first water flow drive unit 12 located in the first boiler zone I, a second water flow drive unit 14 located in the third boiler zone III, and a third water flow drive unit 15.

[0033] The first water flow drive unit 12 is a water inlet located at the bottom of the pool that flows towards the eccentric plate 11. It drives the cocoons added to the automatic sorting pot 10 to move along the narrow waterway formed by the first pot area I towards the eccentric plate 11. The threads of the sorted cocoons are introduced into the eccentric plate 11, and then unwound and wound onto the winding plate 13 by the thread guiding plate 4. Some unsorted cocoons will be mixed in and floating in the process.

[0034] In this embodiment, the second water flow drive unit 14 is a water surface jet group parallel to the cocoon-adding opening 16 and spraying water in the direction of the cocoon-adding opening 16; the third water flow drive unit 15 is a water surface jet group located at or near the boundary between the third zone III and the second pot zone II, spraying water in the direction of the unordered cocoon return hopper 18. Under the combined action of the water flow from the second water flow drive unit 14 and the third water flow drive unit 15, and the winding of the winding disc 13, ordered cocoons sequentially approach the cocoon-adding opening 16, and ordered cocoons are continuously added to the silk reeling assembly B. Among them, the freely floating unordered cocoons drift towards the unordered cocoon return hopper 18 under the action of the third water flow drive unit 15, and are then sent back to the winding pot by the unordered cocoon return hopper 18 to perform secondary winding.

[0035] The second water flow drive unit 14 and the third water flow drive unit 15 are rotating components that rotate horizontally relative to the automatic calming tank 10 to finely adjust the direction of the jet flow.

[0036] In this embodiment, the second water flow drive unit 14 and the third water flow drive unit 15 can both be T-shaped pipe components formed by the connection of a longitudinal water pipe b and a transverse water pipe a. Supported by the longitudinal water pipe b, the transverse water pipe a is positioned at or slightly above the water surface. The transverse water pipe a has a plurality of spray holes evenly distributed along the same orientation. The longitudinal water pipe b is a rotatable pipe that can drive the transverse water pipe a to deflect and adjust the orientation of the water holes. The operator can fine-tune the orientation of the two water flow drive units 14 and 15 according to the separation state of the ordered and unordered cocoons in the automatic sorting pot 10 to achieve the optimal separation operation.
