Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes a paper machine forming and dewatering device to solve the problem in the prior art where the paper and wet towel stick together after being squeezed and dewatered, making it difficult to quickly dry the paper during subsequent air drying and resulting in slow drying efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a paper machine forming and dewatering device comprising: a shell parallel to the ground;

A drive motor is fixedly mounted on one side wall of the housing, and the output end of the drive motor is fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft at one end of one of the first rotating columns.

[0013] The second rotating shafts on the other end of the two first rotating columns pass through the housing and are jointly sleeved with a third synchronous belt;

[0014] Two air coolers are installed on both the top and bottom sides of the air drying hood;

[0015] The other end of the shell is provided with a squeezing member for squeezing and dehydration.

[0016] Furthermore, a support block is fixedly arranged between the two first rotating columns, an air supply pipe is fixedly installed in the middle of the support block, and multiple airbags are arranged on the top of the support block. The multiple airbags are distributed at equal intervals along the axial direction of the air supply pipe and are all located in the gaps between the multiple wet towels.

[0017] The airbag covers the air supply pipe and is connected to the air supply pipe;

[0018] The outer wall of the housing is provided with an air supply structure, which is connected to the air supply pipe;

[0019] Firstly, a fourth synchronous belt is fitted onto the second rotating shaft at both ends of the first rotating column, and the fourth synchronous belt is connected to the air supply structure.

[0020] The air supply structure includes a fan box installed on both sides of the housing, a third rotating shaft rotatably installed inside the fan box, and multiple fan blades arranged on the third rotating shaft;

[0021] One end of the fourth synchronous belt is sleeved with the third rotating shaft;

[0022] One end of the fan box extends into the interior of the shell and is connected to a funnel-shaped concentrator, the narrow end of which is connected to the air supply pipe.

[0023] The airbag has air inlets on both sides of its bottom, and the air supply pipe has air outlets on both sides of its top, with the air outlets connected to the air inlets.

[0024] Multiple air vents are provided on both sides of the top of the airbag.

[0025] Furthermore, a gear reducer is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the housing. A second synchronous belt is sleeved on a second rotating shaft at one end of the first rotating column. One end of the second synchronous belt is connected to the gear reducer. The other end of the gear reducer is connected to the first rotating shaft. One end of the first rotating shaft extends into the interior of the housing and is connected to the second rotating column. A plurality of squeezing blocks are provided on the second rotating column. The squeezing blocks are in contact with the surface of the wet towel.

The paper can be lifted by the lifting block on the surface of the first rotating column, so that the paper is separated from the wet towel and it is convenient to air dry. The arc-shaped surface is designed to facilitate the lifting of the paper, and the gaps between multiple wet towels facilitate drainage and the lifting block to lift the paper.

[0034] Second, when the first rotating column rotates, the fourth synchronous belt drives the third rotating shaft to rotate. The fan blades deliver air into the air duct and then into the airbag, causing the airbag to inflate. The inflated airbag lifts the paper, keeping it detached from the wet towel for easier drying. At the same time, the air inside the airbag is slowly discharged through the air outlet, further accelerating the drying process.

[0035] Third, the second rotating column and squeezing block facilitate the removal of paper scraps adhering to the wet towel. The second synchronous belt and gear reducer drive the second rotating column to rotate when the first rotating column rotates. The scraper can scrape off the paper scraps on the squeezing block, ensuring a good cleaning effect.

When the squeezed paper is conveyed above a first rotating column 21, a drive motor 11 rotates the first rotating column 21. Lifting blocks 26 on the surface of the first rotating column 21 lift the paper, separating it from the wet towels for easy drying. An arc-shaped surface 27 further facilitates lifting, and gaps between the multiple wet towels 2 allow for drainage and paper lifting by the lifting blocks 26.

[0070] Specifically, when the first rotating column 21 rotates, the fourth synchronous belt 14 drives the third rotating shaft 16 to rotate. The fan blades 34 deliver air into the air duct 18 and then into the airbag 20, causing the airbag 20 to inflate. The inflated airbag 20 lifts the paper, keeping it detached from the wet towel 2, facilitating paper drying. At the same time, the air inside the airbag 20 is slowly discharged through the air outlet 32, accelerating the drying of the paper.

[0071] Preferably, a gear reducer 9 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the housing 1.

When the squeezed paper is conveyed above the first rotating column 21, a drive motor 11 rotates the first rotating column 21. Lifting blocks 26 on the surface of the first rotating column 21 lift the paper, separating it from the wet towels for easy drying. An arc-shaped surface 27 further facilitates lifting the paper, and the gaps between the multiple wet towels 2 allow for drainage and paper lifting by the lifting blocks 26. A third synchronous belt 13 enables the two first rotating columns 21 to rotate synchronously.

[0082] When the first rotating column 21 rotates, the fourth synchronous belt 14 drives the third rotating shaft 16 to rotate. The fan blades 34 deliver air into the air duct 18 and then into the airbag 20, causing the airbag 20 to inflate. The inflated airbag 20 lifts the paper, keeping it detached from the wet towel 2, facilitating paper drying. At the same time, the air inside the airbag 20 is slowly discharged through the air outlet 32, accelerating the drying of the paper.

[0083] The second rotating column 28 and the squeezing block 29 facilitate the scraping of paper scraps adhering to the wet towel 2.
