Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of fabric processing, and in particular to a steaming machine. Background Technology

[0002] A steaming machine is a device that uses steam to transfer dye into the fiber, thereby fixing the dye on the printed fabric.

[0003] A Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN214831199U discloses a steaming machine, including a steaming chamber. The steaming chamber has symmetrically arranged feed rollers and discharge rollers on both sides. The steaming chamber contains several guide rollers for conveying the fabric and steam branch pipes for spraying steam. A booster pump is located on one side of the steaming chamber to lift water from the bottom of the chamber to the steam branch pipes. The steaming chamber contains a filtration mechanism, including a first filter assembly disposed within the steaming chamber. The first filter assembly includes a first filter plate that can adhere fibers and is slidably connected to the steaming chamber; a scraper fixedly connected to the steaming chamber and with one end abutting against the end face of the first filter plate; and a fiber placement box disposed below the scraper and open at the top. One end of the fiber placement box slidably penetrates the side wall of the steaming chamber.

[0004] Existing steaming machines spray steam onto the fabric through steam branch pipes and nozzles installed on the steam branch pipes to steam the fabric. However, when the steam is delivered to the fabric, it needs to travel a certain distance, during which some of the steam is prone to condensation, which leads to a decrease in the steaming effect. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To reduce the probability of steam condensing before contacting the fabric, this application provides a steaming machine.

[0006] The steaming machine provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A steaming machine includes a body, on which an air inlet pipe and an air outlet pipe are provided. The air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe are both installed on the body and connected to the interior of the body. A plurality of guide rollers are provided inside the body. The guide rollers are rotatably disposed at both ends of the body wall in the width direction. The guide rollers are hollow rollers. A plurality of air outlets are evenly opened around the guide rollers in the circumferential direction. Air chambers are opened at both ends of the body in the width direction. The guide rollers are connected to the air chambers. The air inlet pipe is connected to the air chambers.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, steam enters the air chamber through the air inlet pipe, then enters the hollow guide roller, and is sent into the machine body through the air outlet on the guide roller. The fabric rotates through the guide roller, so the steam acts directly on the fabric, thereby reducing the probability of steam condensing while flowing in the machine body and reducing the probability of steam condensing before contacting the fabric, improving the steaming effect and saving energy.

[0009] Optionally, the guide roller includes a fixed roller and a sliding roller. The fixed roller is rotatably disposed inside the machine body, and the sliding roller slides and rotates inside the machine body. A groove is vertically opened on the inner wall of the machine body corresponding to the sliding roller, and a slider is slidably disposed in the groove. The sliding roller is rotatably disposed on the slider.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, dividing the guide roller into a fixed roller and a sliding roller, the tension of the guide roller on the fabric can be adjusted by the sliding of the sliding roller, thereby reducing the probability of fabric damage.

[0011] Optionally, a guide groove is provided on the side wall of the slide, and a guide block is fixed on the slider, the guide block being slidably disposed in the guide groove.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide groove is used to guide the sliding of the slider, making the slider slide more smoothly in the groove.

[0013] Optionally, a fixed through hole is provided on the machine body corresponding to the fixed roller, and the fixed roller is connected to the air chamber through the fixed through hole. Several sliding through holes are provided on the machine body in the slide groove, and the sliding through holes are evenly opened along the length of the slide groove. The sliding roller slides and aligns with one of the sliding through holes through the slider, and the sliding roller is connected to the air chamber through the sliding through hole.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the opening of the sliding through hole can still connect the air cavity after the sliding roller slides.

[0015] Optionally, a baffle is slidably installed at the sliding through hole of the machine body, and the baffle slides to open or close the sliding through hole.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the baffle can close the sliding through hole that is not connected to the sliding roller, thereby reducing the probability of steam flowing into the machine body from the gas chamber and reducing the probability of steam condensing in the machine body.

[0017] Optionally, a driving mechanism is provided between the baffle and the machine body. The driving mechanism drives the baffle to slide. The driving mechanism includes a driving block, a connecting block and a driving spring. The driving block is slidably disposed on the machine body. The driving block extends into or away from the guide groove by sliding. The connecting block is fixed on the driving block. The end of the connecting block opposite to the driving block is fixed on the baffle. The driving spring abuts against the connecting block. The driving spring drives the driving block to slide into the guide groove.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the drive mechanism can open the sliding through hole when the sliding roller slides to the corresponding sliding through hole, which facilitates the connection between the sliding roller and the air chamber.

[0019] Optionally, a water storage tank is provided at the bottom of the machine body.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the water storage tank can collect the water condensed after evaporation, which facilitates the subsequent treatment or reuse of the water.

[0021] Optionally, a filter screen is installed in the water storage tank.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the filter screen can block the fine sand in the condensed water, thus facilitating the subsequent treatment of the condensate.

[0023] Optionally, a sliding frame is slidably installed on the water storage tank, and the filter screen is detachably installed on the sliding frame.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the sliding frame slides away from the machine body, bringing the filter screen out of the machine body for easy cleaning, thereby ensuring the filtration effect of the filter screen.

[0025] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0026] 1. Steam enters the air chamber through the air inlet pipe, then enters the hollow guide roller, and is sent into the machine body through the air outlet on the guide roller. The fabric rotates through the guide roller, so the steam acts directly on the fabric, thereby reducing the probability of steam condensing in the machine body and reducing the probability of steam condensing before contacting the fabric, improving the steaming effect and saving energy.

[0027] 2. Dividing the guide roller into a fixed roller and a sliding roller allows for adjustment of the tension of the guide roller on the fabric by sliding the sliding roller, thereby reducing the probability of fabric damage;

[0028] 3. The guide groove is used to guide the sliding of the slider, making the slider slide more smoothly within the groove;

[0029] 4. The baffle can close the sliding through hole that is not connected to the sliding roller, thereby reducing the probability of steam flowing into the machine body from the gas chamber and reducing the probability of steam condensing in the machine body;

[0030] 5. The drive mechanism is designed to open the sliding through hole when the sliding roller slides to the corresponding sliding through hole, facilitating the connection between the sliding roller and the air chamber;

[0031] 6. The water storage tank can collect the water condensed after evaporation, which facilitates subsequent water treatment or reuse;

[0032] 7. The filter screen can block the fine sand in the condensed water, thus facilitating the subsequent treatment of the condensate. Attached Figure Description

[0038] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0039] This application discloses a steaming machine, referring to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The system includes a rectangular body 1 with an inlet and an outlet at both ends along its length. Both ends of the body 1 are detachable, allowing for easy access and maintenance of the interior. The body 1 is equipped with an inlet pipe 2 and an outlet pipe 3, both connected to the interior. The end of the inlet pipe 2 furthest from the body 1 is connected to a steam source, which is a steam generator. The outlet pipe 3 is located at the top of the body 1 and connects to the interior, with a fan installed on it. Several guide rollers 4 are installed inside the body 1, rotatably positioned at both ends along the width of the inner wall of the body 1. The guide rollers 4 are hollow rollers, and several outlets are evenly spaced around their circumference. Air inlet 5; air chambers 6 are provided at both ends of the machine body 1 in the width direction. The air chambers 6 can be opened by disassembling the two ends of the machine body 1 in the width direction. The guide roller 4 is connected to the air chamber 6. The air inlet pipe 2 has a branch at the end away from the steam source. The two branches are respectively connected to the air chambers 6 at both ends of the machine body 1 in the width direction. The fabric enters the machine body 1 from the inlet, is wound on the guide roller 4 and then leaves the machine body 1 from the outlet. Steam enters the air chamber 6 through the air inlet pipe 2, and then enters the guide roller 4 through the air chamber 6. It is discharged from the air outlet 5 of the guide roller 4. The discharged steam directly acts on the fabric wound on the guide roller 4 to steam the fabric, thereby reducing the probability of steam condensation in the flow of steam in the machine body 1 and reducing the probability of steam condensation before contacting the fabric, improving the steaming effect and saving energy.

[0040] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The guide roller 4 includes a fixed roller 41 that rotates within the machine body 1 and a sliding roller 42 that rotates within the machine body 1. Both the fixed roller 41 and the sliding roller 42 are arranged in a row along the length of the machine body 1, and are arranged alternately. A groove 7 is vertically opened on the inner wall of the machine body 1 in the width direction corresponding to the sliding roller 42. A slider 8 is slidably arranged in the groove 7. The sliding roller 42 is rotatably mounted on the slider 8. The sliding roller 42 slides on the machine body 1 through the slider 8, dividing the guide roller 4 into a fixed roller 41 and a sliding roller 42. The tension of the guide roller 4 on the fabric can be adjusted by the sliding of the sliding roller 42, reducing the probability of fabric damage. Vertical guide grooves 9 are opened on the side walls at both ends in the width direction of the groove 7. A guide block 10 is fixed on the slider 8 corresponding to the guide groove 9. The guide block 10 is slidably arranged in the guide groove 9. The guide groove 9 is used to guide the sliding of the slider 8, making the sliding of the slider 8 within the groove 7 smoother.

[0041] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The machine body 1 has a fixed through hole 11 corresponding to the fixed roller 41. The fixed roller 41 is connected to the air chamber 6 through the fixed through hole 11. The machine body 1 has a plurality of sliding through holes 12 in the slide groove 7. The sliding through holes 12 are evenly distributed along the length of the slide groove 7. The sliding roller 42 slides and aligns with one of the sliding through holes 12 through the slider 8. The sliding roller 42 is connected to the air chamber 6 through the sliding through hole 12. Two baffles 13 are slidably installed on the machine body 1 at the sliding through hole 12. The two baffles 13 slide towards each other or away from each other. When they slide towards each other, they close the sliding through hole 12; when they slide away from each other, they open the sliding through hole 12. A drive mechanism 14 is provided between the baffles 13 and the body 1. The drive mechanism 14 drives the baffles 13 to slide. The drive mechanism 14 includes a drive block 141 slidably disposed on the body 1, a connecting block 142 fixed on the drive block 141, and a drive spring 143 mounted on the body 1. The drive block 141 slides into or out of the guide groove 9. The connecting block 142... 42 is fixed to the baffle 13 at one end away from the drive block 141. The drive spring 143 abuts against the connecting block 142. The drive spring 143 drives the drive block 141 to slide into the guide groove 9. The drive block 141 has wedge-shaped surfaces on both sides facing the guide groove 9 along its length. When the guide block 10 slides to the drive block 141, the guide block 10 abuts against the wedge-shaped surfaces and causes the drive block 141 to slide away from the guide groove 9. At this time, the drive block 141 causes the connecting block 142 to slide. When the connecting block 142 compresses the drive spring 143, it simultaneously drives the baffle 13 to slide, opening the sliding through hole 12. This allows the sliding roller 42 to communicate with the air chamber 6 through the sliding through hole 12. When the guide block 10 slides away from the drive block 141, the compressed drive spring 143 resets, causing the drive block 141 to reset and re-extend into the guide groove 9. The drive mechanism 14 is designed to open the sliding through hole 12 when the sliding roller 42 slides to the corresponding sliding through hole 12, facilitating the communication between the sliding roller 42 and the air chamber 6.

[0042] Reference Figure 2 The bottom of the unit 1 is equipped with a water storage tank 15, which can collect the condensed water after evaporation, facilitating subsequent water treatment or reuse. A filter screen 16 is installed inside the water storage tank 15. A sliding frame 17 is slidably installed on the water storage tank 15, and the filter screen 16 is detachably installed on the sliding frame 17. The sliding frame 17 slides away from the water storage tank 15 or blocks between the water storage tank 15 and the unit 1. When the condensed water passes through the filter screen 16, the filter screen 16 will block the fine sand mixed in the water, thereby reducing the impurity content of the condensed water entering the water storage tank 15, which facilitates subsequent treatment or reuse of the condensed water. The sliding frame 17 is designed to facilitate cleaning by taking the filter screen 16 out of the water storage tank 15 for cleaning or replacement.

[0043] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows: the fabric to be steamed is fed into the machine body 1 from the inlet and guided by the guide roller 4 inside the machine body 1. During this period, the steam source provides steam to the air inlet pipe 2. The steam enters the air chamber 6 through the air inlet pipe 2 and enters the fixed roller 41 and the sliding roller 42 through the fixed through hole 11 and the open sliding through hole 12, respectively. Then the steam is discharged from the air outlet 5 and directly acts on the fabric to steam it. After the fabric is steamed, it leaves the machine body 1 through the outlet, completing the steaming process. The steam that is condensed into water during the steaming process enters the water storage tank 15 through the filter screen 16 for subsequent treatment or reuse. The uncondensed steam is discharged through the air outlet pipe 3 and sent to the exhaust gas treatment area for exhaust gas treatment.

[0044] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
