Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of textile technology, and in particular to a consumption test device for textile materials. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the abrasion and wear resistance of textile materials is one of the main mechanical properties of textile materials, and its durability directly affects the performance and application of textile materials. The main testing method for abrasion and wear resistance is to conduct abrasion tests by contacting the textile material with an abrasive, and then evaluate the abrasion and wear resistance of the textile material through methods such as appearance evaluation or mass loss.

[0003] However, existing testing equipment has a long testing time, affecting experimental efficiency. Increasing the friction of the abrasive and the weight of the test block can reduce the testing time, but it can easily wear through the textile material after only a few wear tests, rendering the test invalid. Therefore, frequent checks are required during the testing process, resulting in low automation, high time and labor costs, and an increased number of invalid tests, affecting the accuracy and efficiency of the test. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome the aforementioned shortcomings, this device employs a rotating mechanism within a chamber, with abrasive particles placed on the chamber's inner walls. Textile samples are placed inside the chamber, and the rotation of the mechanism causes the samples to wear down under the influence of the abrasive. The wear and tear performance of the textile samples is then tested by measuring the mass loss over a specific time period. The rotating mechanism's speed is adjustable, allowing for rapid testing of textile materials with varying unit area mass and styles, thus shortening testing time and improving efficiency.

[0005] Meanwhile, since this device measures mass loss based on a time-lapse mechanism, ensuring the accuracy of the test results requires that the sample maintain normal rotation within the specified test time. However, during the agitation of the textile sample within the chamber, the sample can easily become stuck in a certain position, preventing normal rotation and requiring manual intervention, which affects both work efficiency and the accuracy of the test results. Therefore, the structural design of this device prevents the sample from sticking to a certain position within the chamber, reducing manual intervention and ensuring the accuracy of the test results.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0007] The abrasion and wear testing device for textile materials of the present invention includes a chamber and a rotating device. The chamber is cylindrical, and an abrasive is disposed on the inner surface of the chamber. A door is disposed on the front side of the chamber. The rotating device is rotatably disposed in the chamber and includes a rotating position and stirring elements. The rotating position is located at the center of the rotating device, and multiple stirring elements are evenly arranged around the rotating position. A first switch is provided for controlling the opening and closing of the device.

[0008] Optionally, the portion of the stir bar near the rotation position is a first portion, which is rectangular with a length of 20 mm and a width of 10 mm. The portion far from the rotation position is a second portion, which includes an upper line and a lower line, both of which are arcs. The intersection of the upper and lower lines is A. An extension line OB is obtained by extending the width of the first portion near the rotation position end to one side. The intersection of the extension line OB and the boundary line between the first and second portions is P, and ∠APB is 23°. The intersection of the extension line OB and the lower line 7 is the first intersection point M.

[0009] Optionally, the inner diameter of the chamber is 140 mm and the depth is 70 mm; the total length of the rotating device is 114 mm, and there are two stirring elements 3.

[0010] Optionally, the agitator is provided with a vent hole, which can be used to vent air into the chamber.

[0011] Optionally, the vent is located at the first intersection point. The vent can disperse air into the cabin.

[0012] Optionally, a diffuser nozzle is provided on the diffuser hole, and a single stream of gas is emitted from the diffuser hole. The direction of the gas is at a certain angle to the plane at the first intersection point M of the lower line. A second switch is provided to control the opening and closing of the diffuser nozzle.

[0013] Optionally, the angle is 55 degrees.

[0014] Optionally, the diameter of the air diffuser is 1.2 mm and the pressure of the air diffuser is 0.36 Pa.

[0015] Optionally, for samples with a unit area mass (g / m²) ≥ 300, the pressure of the vent nozzle is 0.36 Pa; for samples with a unit area mass (g / m²) 200 ≤ m < 300, the pressure of the vent nozzle is 0.34 Pa; and for samples with a unit area mass (g / m²) m < 200, the pressure of the vent nozzle is 0.32 Pa.

[0016] Optionally, it may also include a control device, a sensor, and an alarm device. The sensor is disposed on the stir bar and / or the side wall.

[0017] Optionally, when the force value displayed by the sensor fluctuates within ±1% for 1.0s, it indicates that the sample is rotating abnormally, such as being attached to a certain position, which affects the experimental results, and the alarm device will sound an alarm.

[0018] Optionally, the rotating device can be detached and installed.

[0019] Optionally, the method of using the abrasion and wear testing device for textile materials includes the following steps:

[0020] Step 1: Turn on the textile material abrasion test device, weigh the sample by unit area, and cut the sample to the required square size. Weigh the square sample before the test, and set the pressure of the vent hole to correspond to the pressure of the square sample by unit area. Step 2: Open the chamber door, install the rotating device and abrasive, place the sample into the chamber, close the chamber door, turn on the second switch, and keep the sample rotating under the action of the vent nozzle of the rotating device. Start timing. Step 3: After the set time is reached, take out the square sample and weigh the square sample after the test. Step 4: Repeat the above steps and calculate the abrasion performance of the square sample.

[0021] Optionally, a locking device is provided on the rotating position.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0023] This apparatus uses a rotating device within a chamber, with abrasive particles placed on the chamber walls. Textile samples are placed inside, and the rotation of the device causes the samples to wear down under the influence of the abrasive. The wear resistance of the textile samples is tested by measuring the mass loss over a specific time period. The rotating device has an adjustable speed, allowing for rapid testing of textile materials with varying unit area mass and styles, thus shortening testing time and improving efficiency.

[0024] During the agitation of textile samples within the chamber, the samples can easily stick to a certain position, preventing normal rotation. This necessitates manual intervention, such as maneuvering, which affects both work efficiency and the accuracy of the test results. Therefore, this device prevents samples from sticking to a certain position within the chamber, reducing manual intervention and ensuring the accuracy of the test results.

[0025] Specifically, the location, number, direction, diameter, and pressure of the gas vents in this device are all set in accordance with the chamber specifications, the structure of the rotating device, and the properties of the test sample. Overall, this achieves the effect of completing the test in a short time and improving the accuracy of the test.

[0026] Regarding the pressure of the air diffuser, if the pressure is too low, it will have little effect, only delaying the time of the first contact with the wall, but it cannot guarantee that the normal rotation will continue throughout the test. If the pressure is too high, it will directly blow the sample to a certain point where it will contact the wall, which is also not conducive to the test. Therefore, based on the wide range of uses and large differences in basis weight of textile materials, this invention sets different air diffuser pressures according to different basis weight ranges, so as to ensure normal rotation during the test while being as scientific and energy-efficient as possible.

[0027] Because this test method is completed within a short time, it generally requires observation of the test process to avoid situations where the sample does not rotate normally during the test period. If this is not detected in time and included in the normal test values, it will directly affect the test results. Therefore, the entire test process requires observation by the test personnel, resulting in low automation and affecting work efficiency. This device is equipped with sensors and alarm devices. When the force value of the sensor fluctuates within the specified range and persists for a period of time, it indicates that the sample is not rotating normally, and an alarm is triggered in time, improving the degree of automation and work efficiency.

[0028] In cases where the object is partially stuck to the wall, it can automatically resume rotation within a short time. Therefore, the sensor only issues an alarm when the force value fluctuation range is within ±1% and remains stable for 1.0s, which is beneficial for the test.

[0029] Because the rotating device operates at a high speed, it is prone to coming loose, which can affect the experimental results and pose a safety hazard. Therefore, a locking device is installed on the rotating position. Attached Figure Description
