Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fiber winding production equipment, and in particular relates to a high-speed fiber winding yarn tension maintaining device. Background Art

[0002] Filament winding is one of the main manufacturing processes for resin-based composite materials. It is a method in which continuous fiber roving or cloth tape is impregnated with resin glue under controlled tension and predetermined linear shape, continuously wound on a core mold or liner corresponding to the inner cavity size of the product, and then cured at room temperature or under heating conditions to form a product of a certain shape.

[0003] In the fiber winding molding process, in the dipping unit, the yarn passes through a tension cylinder that can move vertically up and down. Because the winding main machine drives the yarn to move frequently at high speed, during acceleration, the yarn pulls the cylinder downward. During deceleration, the yarn still maintains the original speed, resulting in over-pulling of the yarn, causing the yarn to sag. At this time, the cylinder moves upward to tighten the yarn. Because part of the yarn sags, the tension cannot be maintained. This part of the yarn is loose and has no tension when it is wrapped around the pressure vessel, affecting product quality. Therefore, it is imperative to develop a method for maintaining yarn tension during high-speed fiber winding. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The technical solution of the present invention is further specifically described below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

The two sides of the support rod 18 are rotatably connected to the support straight plates 12 on both sides. The two support straight plates 12 are provided with mounting vertical plates 13 on the sides away from each other. The mounting vertical plates 13 extend upward and the top is tilted and bent backward. The tops of the two mounting vertical plates 13 are provided with support feet 6. The tops of the two supporting feet 6 are connected with cylinder mounting plates 3. The top of the cylinder mounting plate 3 is provided with a low-friction cylinder 2. The side of the mounting vertical plate 13 on one side is provided with a A proportional valve 16 is connected, and a plurality of magnetic switches 1 are arranged on the side of the low-friction cylinder 2 from top to bottom. The output end of the low-friction cylinder 2 is downwardly penetrated through the cylinder mounting plate 3, and a floating joint 27 is arranged on the output end. The bottom of the floating joint 27 is connected to a connecting plate 22. The bottoms of both sides of the connecting plate 22 are provided with side plates 25. A fifth winding drum 5 is rotatably connected between the two side plates 25. A locking shaft 4 is connected to the side of the two supporting feet 6 facing each other. The locking shaft 4 is located below the front and rear sides of the connecting plate 22, and is used to connect each supporting foot in the next year through the locking shaft 4. The stability of the top connection of the seat 6, the magnetic switch 1 corresponds to the side of the low-friction cylinder 2, and there are twelve of them evenly distributed from top to bottom. The low-friction cylinder 2 drives the floating joint 27 at the output end and the connecting plate 22 to move downward. The bottom of the connecting plate 22 is connected to the fifth winding drum 5 connected by the side plate 25, which can be driven up and down synchronously. Because the surfaces of the first winding drum 10, the second winding drum 9, the third winding drum 17, the fourth winding drum 15 and the fifth winding drum 5 are wound with yarn 20, the tension state of the yarn 20 can be controlled by controlling the up and down lifting of the fifth winding drum 5.

[0023] A limit plate 7 is provided on the side facing each other of the two supporting feet 6, and the limit plates 7 are provided corresponding to the left and right sides of the connecting plate 22. A bearing mounting seat 24 is provided at the bottom of the left and right sides of the connecting plate 22. Rolling bearings 23 are provided on the front and rear side surfaces of the left and right sides of the connecting plate 22 and the bottom of the bearing mounting seat 24. Four groups of rolling bearings 23 connected to the connecting plate 22 extend to the front and rear sides of the limit plate 7 respectively. A pad 14 is connected to the bottom of the limit rod, and the pad 14 is installed on the top of the supporting straight plate 12. A buffer mounting seat 8 is installed on the side facing each other of the two pads 14. An oil buffer 26 is plugged into the buffer mounting seat 8, and the oil buffer 26 is located directly below the two side plates 25.

[0024] By arranging an oil buffer 26 under the two side plates 25, it is possible to prevent all structures on the entire connecting plate 22 from playing a buffering and effect when being pressed down, thereby preventing excessive pressure from causing damage to the fifth winding drum 5. The bottom plate 11 is inserted and arranged between the two supporting straight plates 12. When too much glue of the yarn 20 drips on the bottom plate 11, the handle can be pulled out for quick cleaning and replacement. By respectively arranging a bearing mounting seat 24 and a rolling bearing 23 at the left and right ends of the connecting plate 22, the rolling bearing 23 here limits the side of the limit plate 7. At the same time, rolling bearings 23 are arranged on the front and rear sides of both ends of the connecting plate 22. The rolling bearings 23 here are arranged corresponding to the front and rear sides of the limit plate 7, so that when the connecting plate 22 moves up and down, it can be more stable.

[0025] Principle of the present invention: the low friction cylinder 2 is in the upper half of the entire cylinder stroke, and the proportional valve 16 outputs a relatively small air pressure. As the magnetic switch 1 detects that the tension is maintained and the cylinder is descending, the output air pressure of the proportional valve 16 gradually increases. When the fiber winding machine starts to accelerate winding, the first bobbin 10, the second bobbin 9, the third bobbin 17 and the fourth bobbin 15 begin to rotate as the yarn 20 is pulled. At this time, the fifth bobbin 5 at the top moves downward synchronously, so that the connecting plate 22 connected thereto and the low friction cylinder 2 at the top begin to move downward. At this time, as the cylinder moves downward, the output air pressure of the proportional valve 16 gradually increases as the low friction cylinder 2 moves downward. When the fiber winding machine decelerates, the output air pressure of the proportional valve 16 increases synchronously or in advance, so that the low friction cylinder 2 moves upward faster, always tightens the yarn 20, and prevents the yarn 20 from drooping without tension due to inertia, thereby achieving the function of maintaining the tension of the yarn 20.

[0026] The induction principle of the cylinder magnetic switch is based on magnetic induction technology. Its working principle is as follows:

[0027] 1. The function of the magnetic piston: A magnetic piston is usually installed inside the cylinder. When the cylinder is working, the piston moves with the expansion and contraction of the cylinder.

[0028] 2. Magnetic switch induction magnetic field: The magnetic switch is usually installed on the outer wall of the cylinder. When the piston moves to a position close to the switch, the magnetic field of the magnetic piston will be sensed by the switch through the cylinder wall.

[0029] 3. Hall sensor or reed switch: Hall effect sensor or reed switch is used inside the magnetic switch.

[0030] Hall Effect Sensor: When a magnetic field passes through a Hall Effect sensor, a voltage change is generated inside the sensor, triggering a signal output.

[0031] Reed switch: A reed switch is a switch consisting of two metal reeds. When a magnetic field approaches, the two metal reeds will come into contact, closing the circuit and generating an output signal.

[0032] 4. Output signal: Once the magnetic switch senses the magnetic field of the piston, it will output an electrical signal to inform the control system of the current position of the piston. These signals can be used to control the stroke, limit or position feedback of the cylinder.

[0033] Therefore, the cylinder magnetic switch can accurately detect the position of the piston inside the cylinder to ensure precise control during the working process.

[0034] Finally, it should be pointed out that the above embodiments are only representative examples of the present invention. Obviously, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and there are many variations. Any simple modification, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention should be considered to belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
