Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention mainly relates to the technical field of knitwear shaping, and in particular to a knitwear shaping device. Background Art

[0002] After the production of knitted fabrics is completed, they need to be shaped to ensure their quality and feel. Existing knitted fabrics are mainly shaped by steam, and the main operating method is to convey the knitted fabrics to a sealed space through a conveyor roller, and then spray steam in the sealed space to use steam to shape the knitted fabrics.

[0003] However, when the conveyor roller conveys the knitted fabric, water stains adhere to the conveyor roller, causing the knitted fabric to slip on the conveyor roller, resulting in changes in the amount of steam contacted by the knitted fabric. In addition, the existing steam spraying is performed in the entire sealed space, which easily causes steam waste. Therefore, a new knitted fabric shaping device is needed. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is aimed at the existing technical solutions and provides a solution that is significantly different from the existing technologies. It mainly provides a knitted fabric shaping device to solve the technical problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology that knitted fabrics are prone to slip when transported on conveyor rollers, resulting in changes in the amount of steam contacted by the knitted fabrics, and steam injection in the entire sealed space is prone to cause steam waste.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above technical problems is:

[0006] A knitted fabric shaping device comprises a conveying channel, wherein rectangular cylinders are installed on both sides of the conveying channel, the rectangular cylinders are communicated with the output end of a steam generating device, a plurality of circular holes are opened on opposite sides of the two rectangular cylinders, two rotating members are rotatably connected in the two circular holes, a rotating cylinder is installed on the annular surface of the rotating member, a plurality of arc grooves are opened on the annular surface of the rotating cylinder, a friction member is slidably connected in the arc groove, a plurality of first exhaust holes are opened on the rotating member, one end of the friction member away from the arc groove passes through the first exhaust hole and extends into the rotating member, second exhaust holes are opened on the left and right sides of the arc groove, a sealing member is installed in the second exhaust hole, and the sealing member is connected to the friction member.

[0007] Preferably, the rotating member includes a cylinder with openings at both ends, the cylinder is installed in two opposite circular holes, the first exhaust hole is opened on the annular surface of the cylinder, a one-way bearing is installed on the annular surface of the cylinder, the one-way bearing is installed in a rectangular cylinder, a plurality of annular rotating plates arranged equidistantly are installed on both ends of the cylinder, the rotating plates are arranged in the rectangular cylinder, the rotating cylinder is installed on the annular surface of the cylinder, and the friction member extends into the cylinder at one end away from the arc groove.

[0008] Preferably, the friction part includes an arc block, which is inserted into the arc groove. The arc block is provided with an anti-slip groove on one side outside the arc groove. An adjusting part is installed on one side of the arc block inside the arc groove. The end of the adjusting part away from the arc block passes through the first circular hole and extends into the cylinder.

[0009] Preferably, the adjusting member comprises a round rod, the arc block is installed with a round rod on one side in the arc groove, the sealing member is installed on the annular surface of the round rod, the end of the round rod away from the arc block is inserted into the first exhaust hole and is installed with a sealing plate, and a first inclined groove is provided at the contact point between the round rod and the first exhaust hole, and the first inclined groove is in contact with the first air hole.

[0010] Preferably, the sealing member comprises a tapered rod, the tapered rod is inserted into the second circular hole, an L-shaped rod is installed at one end of the tapered rod in the rotating cylinder, and one end of the L-shaped rod away from the second exhaust hole is installed on the annular surface of the circular rod.

[0011] Preferably, a second oblique groove parallel to the first oblique groove is formed in the first exhaust hole, and a conical groove matched with the conical rod is formed in the second exhaust hole.

[0012] Preferably, a sealing ring is installed in the circular hole, and the sealing ring is sleeved on the annular surface of the cylinder.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. By opening a plurality of arc grooves on the annular surface of the rotating cylinder and installing an anti-skid structure composed of an arc block, a round rod and a sealing plate in the arc groove, when the knitted fabric contacts the rotating anti-skid structure, the anti-skid structure gradually generates a greater friction force, thereby reducing the possibility of slipping during the conveying process of the knitted fabric.

[0015] The power for the rotation of the anti-skid structure is driven by the fluidity generated by the steam passing into the rectangular cylinder, which saves the use of driving equipment. At the same time, the amount of steam passing into the rectangular cylinder changes the speed of the rotation of the anti-skid structure, thereby making the knitted fabric contact with the steam more evenly.

[0016] When the anti-slip structure comes into contact with knitwear of different weights, the knitwear of different weights exert different pressures on the anti-slip structure, thereby changing the amount of steam discharged from the first exhaust hole, thereby ensuring that the knitwear of different weights comes into contact with the steam more evenly.

[0017] 2. By opening second exhaust holes on both sides of the anti-slip groove and installing a sealing structure composed of a tapered rod and an L-shaped rod in the second exhaust hole, the sealing structure blocks the second exhaust hole when the knitted fabric is separated from the anti-slip structure, thereby reducing steam waste.

[0018] And knitwear of different sizes will only come into contact with different amounts of the anti-slip structure, further avoiding waste of steam caused by excess space.

[0028] Please refer to the attached Figure 1-Figure 3 A knitted fabric shaping device comprises a conveying channel 1, rectangular cylinders 2 are installed on both sides of the conveying channel 1, and the output end of the steam generating device is connected to the rectangular cylinder 2, and then a plurality of circular holes are opened on the opposite sides of the two rectangular cylinders 2, and a cylinder 9 with both ends of openings is rotatably connected in the two opposite circular holes, a one-way bearing 14 is installed on the annular surface of the cylinder, the one-way bearing 14 is installed in the rectangular cylinder, and then a plurality of annular rotating plates 12 arranged equidistantly are installed at both ends of the cylinder 9, the rotating plates 12 are arranged in the rectangular cylinder 2, and then a rotating cylinder 3 is installed on the annular surface of the cylinder 9.

[0029] When the steam generating device introduces steam into the rectangular cylinder 2, the rotating plate 12 and the cylinder 9 are driven to rotate, thereby driving the rotating cylinder 3 installed on the annular surface of the cylinder 9 to rotate.

[0030] A plurality of arc grooves are provided on the annular surface of the rotating cylinder 3, and an arc block 5 is slidably connected in the arc groove. The arc block 5 is provided with an anti-slip groove 11 on one surface outside the arc groove, and a round rod 7 is installed on one surface of the arc block 5 inside the arc groove. A plurality of first round holes are provided on the annular surface of the cylinder 9, and one end of the round rod 7 away from the arc block 5 is inserted into the first exhaust hole and a sealing plate 10 is installed, and then a first inclined groove 8 is provided at the contact point between the round rod 7 and the first exhaust hole, and the first inclined groove 8 is in contact with the first air hole.

[0031] Second exhaust holes are opened on both sides of the arc groove, and a conical rod 6 is inserted into the second exhaust hole. An L-shaped rod 4 is installed at one end of the conical rod 6 in the rotating cylinder 3, and the end of the L-shaped rod 4 away from the second exhaust hole is installed on the annular surface of the round rod 7.

[0032] A second oblique groove parallel to the first oblique groove 8 is provided in the first exhaust hole, and a conical groove matched with the conical rod 6 is provided in the second exhaust hole.

[0033] In order to prevent steam leakage, a sealing ring 13 is installed in the circular hole, and the sealing ring 13 is sleeved on the annular surface of the cylinder 9.

[0034] The specific operation process of the present invention is as follows: steam is introduced into the rectangular cylinder 2 to rotate the cylinder 9 and the rotating cylinder 3, and then the knitted fabric is placed on the rotating cylinder 3. After the knitted fabric contacts the arc block 5 on the rotating cylinder 3, the arc block 5 is squeezed by its own gravity, so that the round rod 7 and the sealing plate 10 connected to the arc block 5 move into the cylinder 9, and the conical rod 6 and the L-shaped rod 4 are also driven to move into the rotating cylinder 3, so that the first exhaust hole and the second exhaust hole are opened, so that the steam in the rectangular cylinder 2 passes through the cylinder 9, the first exhaust hole and the rotating cylinder 3, and is finally discharged from the second exhaust hole to contact the knitted fabric.

[0035] Since the arc block 5 is in rotational contact with the knitted fabric, the oblique groove of the arc block 5 is in contact with the knitted fabric first, and as the arc block 5 rotates, the knitted fabric gradually contacts with the highest point of the arc block 5. When the highest point of the arc block 5 contacts with the knitted fabric, the pressure of the knitted fabric on the arc block 5 increases, so the friction force increases, thereby reducing the probability of slipping during the transportation of the knitted fabric.

[0036] When the knitted fabric is not in contact with the arc block 5, the sealing plate 10 is squeezed by the steam to fit the inner wall of the cylinder 9 to achieve sealing, thereby avoiding steam waste. When the knitted fabric is in contact with the arc block 5, the first exhaust hole and the second exhaust hole are opened, but the first exhaust hole and the second exhaust hole that are not in contact with the knitted fabric and the arc block 5 are squeezed by the steam in the cylinder 9, so that the sealing plate 10 fits tightly against the inner wall of the cylinder 9, so that the corresponding first exhaust hole and the second exhaust hole are still sealed, thereby further avoiding steam waste.

[0037] The above is an exemplary description of the present invention in combination with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as such non-substantial improvements are made by adopting the method concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the concept and technical solution of the present invention are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
