Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cooling devices, in particular to a nylon tube extrusion cooling device. Background Art
[0002] Nowadays, various oil pipes and other pipelines on automobiles are made of nylon tubes, which are generally produced by extrusion. The process of nylon tube extrusion production starts with raw material preparation. The dried nylon particles are heated and melted by the extruder and extruded into shape. Then, the vacuum sizing is performed to ensure the accuracy of the pipe size, and then the pipe enters the cooling water tank for water cooling or spray cooling to shape. The cooled pipe is pulled out at a uniform speed by the traction machine and cut to the specified length. Finally, the nylon tube is heated and placed in the molding mold for shaping. Various special-shaped pipes used in automobiles are obtained.
[0003] As an important step in the extrusion process, the cooling water trough plays a vital role in the final quality of the nylon tube. It ensures the dimensional accuracy and surface smoothness of the tube through uniform cooling, avoiding shrinkage, deformation or surface defects. At the same time, the stable cooling process reduces internal stress and improves the mechanical properties of the nylon tube. However, the existing cooling water troughs have many shortcomings in structural design and temperature control, and it is difficult to meet the high-quality and high-efficiency production needs.
[0004] First of all, in terms of structural design, most traditional nylon tube extrusion cooling devices adopt an integral structure, which has poor flexibility in practical applications and is difficult to adjust and expand according to different production needs. When cooling nylon tubes of different lengths or specifications and special nylon tubes is required, the entire cooling device often needs to be replaced, which not only increases equipment costs but also reduces production efficiency. In addition, the cooling device with an integral structure is more complicated to install and maintain. Once a part fails, the entire device may need to be disassembled and repaired, resulting in long maintenance time and high maintenance costs.
[0005] Secondly, in terms of cooling control, the temperature control method of the existing nylon tube extrusion cooling device is relatively extensive and lacks an independent and precise control system. Most devices only use a simple temperature adjustment method and cannot perform precise temperature control according to the actual cooling needs of the nylon tube. The temperature difference between the head and tail of the cooling water tank with an integral structure is large and cannot be accurately controlled, resulting in uneven temperature in various parts of the nylon tube during the cooling process, which is prone to quality problems such as internal stress concentration and surface cracks. At the same time, it is difficult for operators to flexibly adjust the cooling parameters according to the material, specifications and production process requirements of different nylon tubes, and it is impossible to implement targeted cooling solutions.

[0025] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, a nylon tube extrusion cooling device includes a plurality of module water tanks 28, which are divided into a first section cooling water tank 1, a tail section cooling water tank 2 and a middle section cooling water tank 3. The first section cooling water tank 1, the tail section cooling water tank 2 and the middle section cooling water tank 3 are connected by a connecting male head 10 and a connecting female head 11. The connecting male head 10 and the connecting female head 11 are sealed to connect the middle section cooling water tank 3 with the first section cooling water tank 1 and the tail section cooling water tank 2 in series. The first section cooling water tank 1 and the tail section cooling water tank 2 are located at the head and tail of the cooling device. The number of the middle section cooling water tanks 3 can be selected according to actual production needs, from zero to several, and the middle section cooling water tank 3 can be installed between the first section cooling water tank 1 and the tail section cooling water tank 2.
[0027] like Figure 2 , Figure 7 As shown, an overflow prevention box 8 is fixedly installed at the front end of the tank body 7 of the first-stage cooling water tank 1. A hollow interlayer is arranged inside the overflow prevention box 8, and a plurality of overflow holes 22 are provided on the inner walls on both sides. The overflow holes 22 are connected to the hollow interlayer, and the horizontal position of the overflow holes 22 is lower than the upper end surface of the tank body 7. An overflow pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the overflow prevention box 8. The overflow pipe 9 is connected to the hollow interlayer of the overflow prevention box 8, and the other end of the overflow pipe 9 is connected to the return pipe 27. When the operation starts, the water inlet and outlet in the tank body 7 cannot reach balance immediately, so that if there is excess cooling water, it can enter the overflow prevention box 8, flow into the hollow interlayer through the overflow hole 22, and then flow back to the cooling circulation mechanism 5 through the overflow pipe 9 until the water inlet and outlet in the tank body 7 reach balance. A male connector 10 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the tank body 7 of the first-stage cooling water tank 1.
[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, a connecting female connector 11 is fixedly installed at the front end of the trough body 7 of the tail section cooling water trough 2, and an anti-overflow box 8 which is the same as that on the first section cooling water trough 1 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the trough body 7 of the tail section cooling water trough 2, and an overflow pipe 9 is also connected to the bottom of the anti-overflow box 8 to connect to the return pipe 27.
[0029] like Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, a connecting female head 11 is fixedly installed at the front end of the trough body 7 of the middle section cooling water trough 3, and a connecting male head 10 is fixedly installed at the rear end. A connecting groove 18 is provided inside the connecting female head 11, and a circle of sealing gasket 19 is provided at the bottom of the connecting groove 18. The shape and size of the connecting male head 10 match the connecting groove 18, and a plurality of sealing rings 17 are embedded on the inner and outer surfaces of the connecting male head 10. The multiple sealing designs effectively avoid the problem of cooling water leakage.
[0030] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, partitions 16 are provided at both ends of the tank body 7, which can partially avoid the cross-flow of cooling water between the two module water tanks 28, creating relatively stable conditions for the subsequent cooling temperature control. A groove for the nylon tube to pass through is provided on the partition 16. Several rotating rollers 12 are fixedly installed on the inner bottom surface of the tank body 7. A water inlet head 13 is installed at the head position of the inner bottom surface of the tank body 7, and a water return port 14 is installed at the tail position. A U-shaped head 20 is fixedly installed on the top of the water inlet head 13, and several water outlet holes 21 are evenly provided on the inner ring surface of the U-shaped head 20. When the nylon tube enters the tank body 7, it passes through the middle of the U-shaped head 20, so that the cooling water can wrap the nylon tube, ensuring uniform and sufficient cooling. The water return port 14 is funnel-shaped, and its top surface is flush with the inner bottom surface of the tank body 7. A pair of temperature sensors 15 are also installed on both sides of the water inlet head 13 and the water return port 14 on the inner bottom surface of the tank body 7. The temperature sensor 15 is connected to the control box 6 through a control line.
[0031] like Figure 8 As shown, the cooling circulation mechanism 5 includes a heat exchanger 23, an integrated water tank 24 and a circulation pump 25. The heat exchanger 23 and the integrated water tank 24 are an integrated structure. The cooling circulation mechanism 5 is also provided with a water outlet pipe 26 and a water return pipe 27. One end of the water return pipe 27 is connected to the water return port 14, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the heat exchanger 23. One end of the water outlet pipe 26 is connected to the water inlet head 13, and the other end is connected to the outlet of the circulation pump 25. The inlet of the circulation pump 25 is connected to the integrated water tank 24 through a pipeline.
[0032] In this embodiment, a PLC controller and a human-machine interface are provided inside the control box 6. The PLC controller receives the temperature signal transmitted by the temperature sensor 15, and adopts a PID (proportional-integral-differential) control algorithm to automatically adjust the flow of the circulation pump 25 and the cooling power of the heat exchanger 23 according to the deviation between the current temperature and the set temperature, so that the water temperature reaches the target value; the human-machine interface includes an interactive touch screen, through which the cooling requirements of different nylon tubes are set, including the target water temperature and the gradient cooling curve. The interactive touch screen can also display the inlet water temperature, outlet water temperature, working status information of the circulation pump 25 and the heat exchanger 23 of the corresponding module water tank 28 in real time. The interactive touch screen also integrates alarm display and reminder. When the water temperature is abnormal or the equipment fails, the alarm information is displayed and the sound alarm is issued.
[0033] In this embodiment, a central control module is also integrated in the control box 6 of the first-section cooling water tank 1. The central control module coordinates and controls all the control boxes 6, sets the water temperature gradient of different module water tanks 28 according to the cooling requirements of the nylon tube, and sends the target water temperature to each control box 6. The central control module also records the water temperature, flow rate, and equipment status data of each module water tank 28, and optimizes the cooling parameters through historical data analysis.
[0034] In actual production applications, first during the installation and commissioning of the device, since the installation structures of the module sinks 28 are consistent, the bases 4 of the same specifications and sizes are used, and the bases 4 are provided with anchor bolt fixing seats, it is only necessary to pre-arrange the anchor bolt installation positions on the ground, so that the subsequent assembly of the module sinks 28 is much more convenient and quick. When assembling the module sinks 28, the male connector 10 is inserted into the female connector 11, and multiple seals are performed through the sealing gasket 19 and the sealing ring 17. In addition, the positioning installation of the base 4 makes the connection between the male connector 10 and the female connector 11 between each module sink 28 sufficiently firm, and also optimizes the connection structure.
[0035] In actual production work, the operator can set the target water temperature of each module water tank 28 individually through the human-machine interface in the control box 6. After the nylon tube passes through the extruder and vacuum setting, it enters the tank body 7 from the front end of the first cooling water tank 1, passes through the middle of the water inlet head 13, and moves to the rear section with the assistance of the rotating roller 12. At the same time, the cooling circulation mechanism 5 also works synchronously. The circulating pump 25 extracts the cooling water in the integrated water tank 24, sends it to the water inlet head 13 through the outlet pipe 26, and then flows out from the outlet hole 21 of the inner ring of the U-shaped head 20 to cool the passing nylon tube. The cooling water flow direction is the same as the travel direction of the nylon tube, avoiding the influence of water flow resistance, reducing temperature fluctuations, and better meeting the cooling needs. At the same time, the return water port 14 at the tail of the tank body 7 also recovers the heat-absorbing cooling water, and sends it back to the heat exchanger 23 through the return water pipe 27 for heat exchange cooling, and finally sends the cooled cooling water to the integrated water tank 24 to form a cycle. During this process, the temperature sensors 15 located at the water inlet 13 and the water return port 14 send back the temperatures of the two places in real time. The PLC controller inside the control box 6 adopts a PID control algorithm to automatically adjust the flow rate of the circulation pump 25 and the cooling power of the heat exchanger 23 according to the deviation between the current temperature sent back by the temperature sensor 15 and the set target water temperature, so that the water temperature reaches the target value.
[0036] At the same time, the central control module integrated in the control box 6 of the first cooling water tank 1 can also be set with one button. The operator sets the cooling demand parameters and parameters such as pipe diameter, wall thickness, extrusion speed and material properties through its internal human-machine interface. The central control module generates a gradient cooling curve through a built-in algorithm based on the input parameters and requirements, and divides the same number of temperature intervals based on the number of module water tanks 28 actually installed, and sets the target water temperature respectively. The central control module sends the target water temperature to the control box 6 of each module water tank 28 through the field bus; after the control box 6 receives the target water temperature, the internal PLC controller uses the PID control algorithm to adjust the flow of the circulation pump 25 and the cooling capacity of the heat exchanger 23 to stabilize the water temperature near the target value; during this process, the central control module monitors the water temperature changes of each module water tank 28 in real time. If the water temperature of a module water tank 28 deviates from the target value, the central control module sends an adjustment instruction to ensure the stability of the water temperature to ensure the gradient cooling effect.
