Researchers have shifted from early fiber preparation and characterization to understanding the formation process and mechanism of electrospinning. Compared with other methods of obtaining fibers, electrospinning technology has the advantages of wide selection of raw materials, simple equipment and strong controllability of time. Therefore, it has become the object of researchers, and a hot wave of electrospinning theory and experiments has been triggered.

[0037] (4) Compared with uniform airflow monitoring, the pulse airflow monitoring used in this embodiment has the following advantages: ① The monitoring is more accurate. Uniform airflow monitoring obtains a stable airflow, making it difficult to distinguish the presence or absence of a signal. At the same time, it is impossible to amplify the useful signal through normalization or other processing methods. Pulse airflow monitoring makes it easy to distinguish the presence or absence of a signal, avoiding the impact of defects caused by uniform airflow monitoring on the breathability of the overlapping fabric. It also provides convenience for subsequent signal processing, such as normalization. ② The monitoring effect is better. The jet frequency of pulse airflow can be adjusted according to the conveying speed of the spun fabric, avoiding problems such as deformation or damage to the spun fabric caused by excessive jetting when the conveying speed of the spun fabric is low. ③ It is highly efficient and energy-saving. Pulse airflow monitoring consumes less air, which can save a lot of energy and avoid the energy consumption and wear on the jetting device caused by uniform airflow monitoring, thus reducing operating costs.

[0044] The purpose of the present application is to provide an air permeability online monitoring system for industrialized production of electrospinning, which can quickly and accurately test the air permeability of the measured spinning cloth, improve the intelligent level of the electrospinning equipment, and improve the quality of the electrospinning cloth.
[0045] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application clearer and more apparent, the following further describes the present application in combination with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0046] In the first aspect of the present application, a spinning cloth air permeability online monitoring system is provided. On this basis, the second aspect of the present application provides an electrospinning equipment applying the spinning cloth air permeability online monitoring system. For ease of understanding, the following mainly describes the electrospinning equipment, but those skilled in the art should understand that the spinning cloth air permeability online monitoring system therein can be independently implemented for manufacturing, using, selling, offering for sale, importing, etc., and is also within the protection scope of the present application.
[0047] Figure 1 FIG. 4 is a horizontal sectional view of the electrospinning equipment applying the spinning cloth air permeability online monitoring system according to the embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 For Figure 1 The view of the electrospinning equipment shown in FIG.
[0048] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 The electrospinning equipment of the present embodiment includes a spinning box 10, an upstream side of which is provided with a feeding port 11 and a downstream side of which is provided with a discharging port 12; a conveying frame 20, which is arranged in the spinning box between the feeding port and the discharging port; an electrospinning device 30, which is arranged in the spinning box above the conveying frame; a base material unwinding machine 41 and a cloth winding machine 42, which are respectively arranged outside the feeding port and the discharging port, wherein the spinning base material is led out from the base material unwinding machine 41, enters the spinning box from the feeding port 11, is led out via the conveying frame 20 and the discharging port 12, and is wound by the cloth winding machine 42. During this period, the nanofibers sprayed by the electrospinning device 30 are deposited on the spinning base material to form a spinning cloth.
[0049] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The electrostatic spinning device also comprises a spinning cloth air permeability online monitoring system for monitoring the air permeability of the spinning cloth after electrospinning. Specifically, the spinning cloth air permeability online monitoring system comprises: a roller 51 arranged above the spinning cloth, the axis of which is perpendicular to the direction of transmission of the spinning cloth, the inside of which is hollow, and the surface of which is provided with N rows of air injection holes, N ³ 1, each row of air injection holes comprising: M air injection holes 51c arranged in a direction parallel to the axis of the roller, M ³ 2; an air injection device 52, the air outlet of which is connected to the hollow inside of the roller; a pressure sensing system 53 comprising: S air pressure sensing units 53a arranged below the spinning cloth, S ³ 1; a control system 54 connected to the air injection device and the S air pressure sensing units, which controls the air injection device to output air, and judges the air permeability of the spinning cloth by using the air pressure values obtained by the S air pressure sensing units; wherein the roller is arranged above the discharge port, the pressure sensing system is arranged below the discharge port, and the spinning cloth passes between the two.
[0050] It can be seen that, by monitoring the induced current generated by the air pressure passing through the measured spinning cloth, the air permeability of the spinning cloth can be accurately and quickly monitored, and the quality standard of the spinning cloth can be continuously evaluated in real time, thereby improving the intelligent level of the air permeability test and improving the production efficiency.
[0051] The various components of the electrostatic spinning device of the present embodiment will be described in detail below.
[0052] In the present embodiment, the spinning box 10 is in the shape of a rectangular cuboid, and has a feeding port 11 and a discharging port 12 on two sides. The feeding port 11 is 2m long and 0.5m wide, and the discharging port 12 comprises a rectangular platform that is 2m long and 1.5m wide.
[0053] Those skilled in the art should understand that the shape of the spinning box, the shape / dimensions of the feeding port and the discharging port, etc. can be adjusted according to actual production needs, and are not limited to the shapes and dimensions listed above.
[0054] The conveying frame 20 is located between the feeding port 11 and the discharging port 12. On the outside of the spinning box, on the upstream side of the feeding port 11, a base material unwinding machine 41 is arranged. On the outside of the spinning box, on the downstream side of the discharging port, a cloth winding machine 42 is arranged. Above the conveying frame 20, an electrostatic spinning device 30 is installed. The electrostatic spinning device 30 comprises a high-voltage power supply, a spraying device, etc. (not shown in the figure). The spraying device is composed of multiple groups of injectors. The spinning base material is placed on the drum of the base material unwinding machine 41, and is conveyed at a conveying speed of 1-5mm / s through the conveying belt of the conveying frame 20 to the cloth winding machine 42 through the electrostatic spinning device 30. During this process, the nanofibers sprayed by the electrostatic spinning device 30 are deposited on the spinning base material to form a spinning cloth.
[0055] Please refer to Figure 2The drum 51 is in a cylindrical shape and is arranged above the discharge port. The first end of the drum 51 is connected to the spinning beam 10 through a driving shaft 51a, and the second end is connected to the air inlet pipe. The driving shaft 51a is fixed on the box body and is driven by a power mechanism to drive the drum 51 to rotate. At the second end of the drum, a bearing 51b is arranged outside the air inlet pipe to ensure that the air inlet pipe is fixed when the drum rotates.
[0056] Those skilled in the art should understand that the position of the drum, the installation and fixing mode, and the driving mode are only examples, and those skilled in the art can adjust them based on actual production needs, which are also within the protection scope of the present application.
[0057] A row of 20-40 air injection holes 51c is arranged on the side surface of the drum 51, and the area of the air injection hole is 5-20 cm 2 The row of air injection holes is arranged in a direction parallel to the axis of the drum.
[0058] It can be seen that, compared with the pressurized closed system air injection device, the drum air injection device can ensure the integrity of the nanometer spinning fiber and zero loss of airflow. Compared with the whole area air injection monitoring, the multi-hole air injection monitoring has higher precision, and the number of air injection holes, the pressure parameters and the gas flow of the air inlet can be adjusted according to the requirements. The equipment is simple to manufacture, easy to operate, and has high stability.
[0059] It should be particularly pointed out that, for the sake of simplifying the control process and data processing, the present embodiment is provided with a row of air injection holes on the drum. However, in other embodiments of the present application, 2 rows, 3 rows, 4 rows or more rows of air injection holes can be provided, and the control system can be set according to the data processing program. The present application can also be realized, and it is also within the protection scope of the present application. However, in this case, the adjustment of the air injection frequency and the interference factors before and after different air injection processes need to be considered, and the control program and the data processing program are more complex than the present embodiment.
[0060] Figure 3 For Figure 1 The structure diagram of the air injection device in the electrospinning equipment is shown in FIG. 1. Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In the present embodiment, the air injection device 52 comprises:
[0061] An air inlet motor 52a;
[0062] A pressure regulating valve 52b, the air inlet thereof is connected to the air outlet of the air inlet motor through a pipe;
[0063] An air injection valve 52c, the air inlet thereof is connected to the air outlet of the pressure regulating valve through a pipe, and the air outlet thereof is connected to the hollow interior of the drum through a pipe;
[0064] An air flow control system 52d is connected to the control end of the air jet valve, and controls the opening degree and switching frequency of the air jet valve.
[0065] The air flow control system can be directly set by a user or be set by the control system. In this embodiment, the air flow control system is a PLC control system, and the signal input end of the PLC control system is connected to the control system 54, and the opening degree and switching frequency set by the user are input by the control system.
[0066] The air inlet motor 52a is used to generate air pressure, and the air pressure is adjusted to a preset air pressure by the pressure regulating valve 52b. When the air jet hole 51c touches the nanofiber membrane, the gas is jetted out. The opening degree of the air jet valve 52c is set by the PLC control system to adjust the gas flow and switching frequency, and the air jet frequency is consistent with the rotation frequency of the roller and the frequency of the conveying belt.
[0067] Specifically, in this embodiment, the roller rotates along the spinning cloth conveying direction, and the rotation frequency is 5 seconds / revolution. The opening degree and switching frequency of the air jet valve 52c are controlled by the PLC control system to control the gas flow to be 20 dm 3 / min, and the air jet frequency is 5 seconds / time. However, the present application is not limited thereto. In some other embodiments of the present application, the gas flow of the pulse air flow is between 10-50 dm 3 / min; and the switching frequency of the pulse air flow is between 5-10 times / second. Of course, the person skilled in the art can also adjust it according to the actual production needs, which will not be described here.
[0068] The person skilled in the art should understand that in order to output the pulse air flow, in addition to the implementation mode of the “PLC control system controlling the air jet valve” as described above, a pulse air flow generator can also be used, as long as the air outlet end of the pulse air flow generator is connected to the hollow interior of the roller. The structure is simpler, but the cost is relatively high.
[0069] Figure 4 For Figure 1 The structure schematic diagram of the pressure sensing system in the electrospinning equipment is shown in FIG. 5. Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the pressure sensing system 53 includes a film air pressure sensing unit 53a and a signal collector 53b.
[0070] The film air pressure sensing unit 53a is fixed on the discharge port, and 20-40 sensing units are distributed thereon. The sensing unit is a piezoresistive structure. The area of each sensing unit is in the range of 5-20 cm 2 , the current is 4-20 mA, the range is 0-100 kPa, and the accuracy is ≤0.2%.
[0071] Those skilled in the art should understand that although the sensing unit in the embodiment adopts a piezoresistive structure, other types of sensing units, such as a piezocapacitive sensing unit, can also be adopted in other embodiments of the application, and the application can also be implemented. Although the air pressure sensing unit in the embodiment obtains a current signal, an air pressure sensing unit outputting a voltage signal can also be adopted in other embodiments of the application. In addition, the number of sensing units, specific parameters, etc. can be adjusted according to actual production needs, and are not limited to the above embodiment.
[0072] For the signal collector 53b, the sensing signal collection port is connected to the 20-40 sensing units, and the signal output port is connected to the control system. The signal collector 53b converts the pressure of the gas through the measured material into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control system 54.
[0073] The control system 54 includes a processor, a memory, and a display screen. The memory includes an electrical signal dynamic display program for the processor to run. By statistically storing the current intensity at different times, the relationship between the air permeability and the current is compared, and the processing program determines the air permeability of the spunlaid fabric.
[0074] Figure 5 For Figure 1 The air permeability-current relationship curve pre-stored in the control system of the electrospinning device is shown. The relationship curve is obtained from previous experiments. Since the relationship curve is pre-stored in the control system, after receiving the user-set air permeability qualified value, the qualified range of the current pulse can be calculated.
[0075] It can be seen that the current-time curve obtained by the signal processing unit analyzing and processing the air permeability data can intuitively identify the quality of the spunlaid film online, reducing the time and cost of manual monitoring, and can meet the large-scale industrial production of nanofiber fabrics.
[0076] Specifically, the control system pre-stores the air permeability-current relationship curve, which executes the following control program:
[0077] Step A, receiving user-set values, including:
[0078] Sub-step A1, receiving a user-set air permeability qualified value;
[0079] Sub-step A2, receiving user-set values of the opening degree and the switching frequency of the air jet valve;
[0080] Those skilled in the art should understand that the above user-set values can also be default values set by the user in advance, which are also within the protection scope of the application.
[0081] Step B, test preparation, including:
[0082] Sub-step B1, control the air jet device to output air flow according to preset gas flow and frequency.
[0083] Specifically, the air inlet motor 52a is started, the constant air pressure is adjusted through the adjusting valve 52b, the PLC control system controls the opening degree and switching frequency of the air jet valve 52c, and the gas flow is controlled in the range of 0-50 dm 3 / min, and the air flow produced by the air inlet motor 52a is blown vertically to the spinning cloth at a frequency of 5-10 seconds / time, and the pressure after the air flow passes through the spinning cloth is received by the film air pressure sensing unit 53a.
[0084] Sub-step B2, determine the current qualified range according to the relationship curve between air permeability and current;
[0085] Sub-step B3, control the base material unwinding machine 41 and the cloth winding machine 42, and the electrospinning device 30 to work, and start the electrospinning process.
[0086] The specific implementation of this step can refer to the description of the related prior art, which will not be repeated here.
[0087] Sub-step B4, control the power device to drive the driving shaft to rotate, and then drive the roller to rotate.
[0088] The roller rotates along the conveying direction of the electrospinning film at a rotation frequency of 5 seconds / revolution, and the roller rotates to the upper side of the nanometer film to perform light touch air jet, and the air jet frequency is consistent with the rotation frequency of the roller.
[0089] Step C, when the pulse current signals of the S air pressure sensing units are within the current qualified range, it is judged that the air permeability of the spinning cloth is qualified; otherwise, it is judged that the spinning cloth is unqualified.
[0090] In this embodiment, when the sensing unit surface has no pressure, its resistance is very high, and when the sensing unit senses pressure, the resistance gradually decreases. At the same time, the pressure signal collected by the collector is converted into an electrical signal data and transmitted to the control system 54.
[0091] Figure 6 For Figure 1 The current change graph at different times received by the control system of the electrospinning device shown in FIG. 6. Figure 6 In FIG. 6, the abscissa is time, in seconds (s); the ordinate is pulse current intensity, in milliampere (mA). As shown in FIG. 6, when the sensing unit surface has no pressure, its resistance is very high, and when the sensing unit senses pressure, the resistance gradually decreases. At the same time, the pressure signal collected by the collector is converted into an electrical signal data and transmitted to the control system 54. Figure 6It can be seen that, in the case of uniform and flat electrospinning nanofiber membrane, the electrical signal obtained by the sensing unit is a generally regular pulse electrical signal. When the nanofiber membrane is too thick at some places, the amplitude of the pulse electrical signal will be greatly reduced; when the nanofiber membrane is too thin at some places, the amplitude of the pulse electrical signal will be greatly increased. Thus, the uniformity of the electrospinning nanofiber membrane can be perceived by analyzing the amplitude change of the pulse electrical signal.
[0092] Specifically, when the air permeability is in the range of 30-50 mm / kPa.min, that is, the current intensity is all in the range of 15-18 mA, it indicates that the batch of spunlaced fabric is qualified, and at this time the control system display screen displays the word "qualified". If the current exceeds 15-18 mA, it indicates that the batch of spunlaced fabric is unqualified, and at this time the control system display screen displays the word "unqualified".
[0093] In this embodiment, the jet device sprays pulse airflow, so that the current obtained by the control system is a regular pulse electrical signal. By analyzing the change of the regular pulse electrical signal, the air permeability of the nanofiber membrane in the spunlaced fabric can be known. In other embodiments of the present application, the jet device can also spray uniform airflow, so as to keep the air pressure above the spunlaced substrate dynamically stable. At this time, the current signal obtained by the control system is a smooth current. If the smooth current changes suddenly, it also indicates that the air permeability of the nanofiber membrane has changed, and the present application can also be achieved.
[0094] However, compared with uniform airflow monitoring, the pulse airflow monitoring in this embodiment has the following advantages:
[0095] ①More accurate monitoring
[0096] Uniform airflow monitoring obtains a smooth airflow, and it is difficult to distinguish the presence or absence of the signal. At the same time, it is impossible to amplify the useful signal by normalization and other processing methods. Pulse airflow monitoring is easy to distinguish the presence or absence of the signal, avoids the influence of defects on the air permeability of the overlapped fabric caused by uniform airflow monitoring, and provides convenience for subsequent signal processing, such as normalization.
[0097] ②Good monitoring effect
[0098] The pulse airflow spraying frequency can be adjusted according to the conveying speed of the spunlaced fabric, which avoids the problem of deformation or damage of the spunlaced fabric caused by excessive air spraying when the conveying speed of the spunlaced fabric is low.
[0099] ③High efficiency and energy saving
[0100] Pulse airflow monitoring consumes less air, which can save a lot of energy, avoid the consumption of energy and the wear and tear of the jet device caused by uniform airflow monitoring, and reduce the operating cost.
