Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of glass fiber drawing, and more specifically to a cleaning device and method for a head of a glass fiber drawing machine. Background Art

[0002] At present, in the pool kiln wire drawing process, after drawing each full barrel, there is a small amount of process residual wire on the broken wire ring on the front side of the machine head. Before unloading the barrel, the operator must cut off the residual wire with a manual knife and put it into the waste wire bag before unloading the winding barrel from the standby side machine head. Manual operation is time-consuming and laborious. Sometimes the barrel cannot be unloaded in time due to untimely cutting, causing the wire drawing machine to automatically shut down, resulting in interruption of the production process, loss of output, and reduction of the overall efficiency of the equipment. At the same time, employees use hard steel knives and repeatedly operate, which damages the broken wire ring on the machine head and causes the loss of equipment spare parts.

[0003] After searching, a patent document with the existing publication number CN117142761A provides an automated, efficient and energy-saving glass fiber drawing machine. The device is provided with a yarn stripping water pipe at the front end of the second water supply channel of the water supply pipe, and a yarn stripping nozzle is provided at the end of the yarn stripping water pipe. In the working state, the yarn stripping nozzle points to the side wall of the winding ring at the front end of the spare impeller. The head yarn cut off by the yarn cutting knife on the winding ring can be washed away by spraying water through the yarn stripping nozzle. In this way, there is no need to manually remove the head yarn, thereby improving work efficiency and automation.

[0004] Although the above device can replace manual cleaning of residual yarn, each glass fiber drawing machine needs to be upgraded, resulting in high cleaning costs for multiple glass fiber drawing machines and inconvenient maintenance. In view of this, we propose a glass fiber drawing machine head cleaning device and method. Summary of the invention
