Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of soap base manufacturing, and particularly to an efficient drying device and method for soap base after washing. Background Art

[0002] During the production process of soap base, after the saponification reaction is completed, further separation and drying are required. Separating soap and glycerol: By methods such as standing still or centrifugation, the upper-layer soap is separated from the lower-layer glycerol aqueous solution. The obtained soap still contains a certain amount of water and impurities and needs further treatment. Drying the soap: The separated soap is dried to remove the water therein. Drying methods can adopt natural air drying, oven drying, vacuum drying, etc., to reduce the water content of the soap to an appropriate level (generally below 10%).

[0003] However, during the drying process of soap base, if a relatively strong drying hot air flow is used to directly carry away the water evaporated from the surface of the soap base, the surface water evaporates rapidly while the internal water diffusion rate is slow, resulting in the formation of a hard shell on the surface, which is also not conducive to the timely discharge of internal water.

[0004] Facing the above problems, the existing solutions can only relieve the surface water evaporation by adopting a slow and relatively low-temperature drying hot air flow method, but this undoubtedly also reduces the overall drying efficiency of the soap base.

[0005] In summary, how to avoid the rapid evaporation of surface water of the soap base and ensure the overall drying efficiency of the soap base has become a problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0007] The present invention provides an efficient drying device for soap base after washing, including a drying tank for containing the soap base to be dried. A heater is arranged on the circumferential side of the drying tank, and the heater is configured with a plurality of heating rings equally spaced in the vertical direction. A lifting plate is movably arranged at the opening of the drying tank, and a lifter for driving the lifting plate to move vertically is arranged above the lifting plate.

[0008] A flat sponge member is arranged below the lifting plate above the surface layer of the soap base. Among them, an evaporation gap is formed between the flat sponge member and the surface layer of the soap base, a hot air flow area is formed between the flat sponge member and the lifting plate, an evaporation humidity sensor for detecting the humidity of the hot air flow area is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the lifting plate, and a vertically penetrating air flow rising port is opened at the central position of the flat sponge member.

[0009] At the center position of the lifting plate, a gas collecting pipe communicating with the hot air flow area is arranged. The gas collecting pipe is connected with an air flow pump through a return air pipeline. The downstream side of the air flow pump is connected with a heating and dehumidifying mechanism through a gas pipe. At the edge area of the lifting plate, a plurality of wide-mouth air outlets are arranged at equal intervals. The air outlet end of the heating and dehumidifying mechanism is connected with an air inlet pipeline, and the end of the air inlet pipeline is connected with the wide-mouth air outlet. Among them, a return air humidity sensor is arranged in the gas collecting pipe, and a distance sensor is arranged at the bottom end of the gas collecting pipe. The detection direction of the distance sensor is vertically downward and is directly opposite to the air flow rising port.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the drying equipment of the present invention: a lifting frame is fixedly installed at the top of the lifting plate. The lifter is provided with a vertically downward lifting shaft, and the lifting shaft is fixedly connected with the lifting frame.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of the drying equipment of the present invention: a plurality of lower connecting rods are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the lifting plate. The bottom ends of the plurality of lower connecting rods are commonly fixedly connected to an outer frame structure, and a flat sponge member is placed inside the inner circumference of the outer frame structure. A piston ring structure that is in sliding contact with the inner wall of the drying tank is arranged on the outer periphery of the outer frame structure.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of the drying equipment of the present invention: a plurality of annular side air inlets are arranged at the bottom of the annular side surface of the gas collecting pipe, and the distance sensor is fixed on the lower side of the bottom plate of the gas collecting pipe.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of the drying equipment of the present invention: an intake air temperature sensor is arranged at the intake end of the heating and dehumidifying mechanism, and an outlet air temperature sensor is arranged at the outlet end of the heating and dehumidifying mechanism.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of the drying equipment of the present invention: the area surrounded by the distribution positions of the plurality of wide-mouth air outlets is matched with the distribution range of the flat sponge member.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution of the drying equipment of the present invention: a support skeleton made of alloy material for maintaining the shape of the flat sponge member is arranged inside or on the outer surface layer of the flat sponge member.

[0016] The present invention provides an efficient drying method for soap base after washing, including the following contents:

[0017] In the first step, a quantitative soap base is gently injected into the drying tank. After standing for a period of time, the lifter drives the lifting plate and the flat sponge member to move downward. When the distance sensor detects that the distance from the surface of the soap base is L, the lifting plate stops descending. At this time, the vertical height of the evaporation gap is a preset standard parameter.

[0018] In the second step, according to the position information of the flat sponge member driven by the lifter to descend and the distance information of the surface of the soap base detected by the distance sensor, the heating rings located below the horizontal position of the surface of the soap base are judged, and the heating rings are driven to start working.

[0019] In Step 3, the moisture in the soap base is heated and evaporated into the evaporation gap. The flat sponge absorbs the moisture in the evaporation gap. At the same time, the excess humid air flow in the evaporation gap is discharged upward from the air flow rising port of the flat sponge into the hot air flow area.

[0020] In Step 4, the air flow pump and the heating and dehumidifying mechanism are started. The air flow discharged into the hot air flow area enters the air collecting pipe. The return air humidity sensor in the air collecting pipe detects the humidity of the incoming air in real time. The heating and dehumidifying mechanism adjusts the working power according to the humidity of the incoming air, reduces the air flow humidity, and re-injects it into the hot air flow area from the air inlet pipeline and the wide-mouth air outlet nozzle.

[0021] In Step 5, when the distance sensor detects that the surface layer of the soap base drops, the lifter drives the lifting plate to drop synchronously until the distance detected by the distance sensor from the surface layer of the soap base is L. At the same time, the heating ring above the horizontal position of the soap base surface layer stops working.

[0022] Humidity Condition 1: When the evaporation humidity sensor or the return air humidity sensor detects that the humidity in the hot air flow area is lower than the preset reference humidity. If the above Humidity Condition 1 is satisfied, the heater stops heating, and the system delay module is started. If Humidity Condition 1 is satisfied within the preset duration T, it is determined that the heating and drying of the soap base in the drying tank is completed, and both the air flow pump and the heating and dehumidifying mechanism stop working.

[0023] In the present invention, during the drying process of the soap base, the system presets an air flow reference temperature. When the heating and dehumidifying mechanism dehumidifies the circulating air flow, it heats the air flow to ensure that the air flow temperature is not lower than the air flow reference temperature.

[0024] Compared with the existing technology, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0025] 1. In the present invention, by configuring a flat sponge on the surface of the soap base, the flat sponge absorbs the moisture released from the surface layer of the soap base, so that a wet medium layer is formed between the surface layer of the soap base and the drying air flow. The drying air flow can quickly discharge the moisture absorbed by the flat sponge (this moisture is the moisture released from the surface layer of the soap base), avoiding direct contact between the drying air flow and the surface layer of the soap base. Moreover, an evaporation gap for dissipating the moisture of the soap base is also formed between the surface layer of the soap base and the flat sponge, and an air flow rising port is provided at the center position of the flat sponge to facilitate the normal discharge of excessive moisture in the evaporation gap, preventing the rapid evaporation of the moisture on the surface of the soap base from forming a hard shell and creating favorable conditions for the discharge of internal moisture.

[0026] 2. According to the distance information of the soap base surface layer detected by the distance sensor, the present invention enables the lifter to drive the flat sponge to descend to the corresponding horizontal position, determines and drives the heating ring below the horizontal position of the soap base surface layer to work, ensuring the heating efficiency and reducing the heating and drying energy consumption to a certain extent.

Specific embodiments

[0032] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0033] Embodiment 1. The present invention designs an efficient drying equipment for the soap base after washing. Please refer to Figure 1 , which is configured with components such as a drying tank 1, a heater 3, a lifting plate 4, a lifter 5, a flat sponge part 8, an air flow pump 14, a heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15, etc. The specific structure is as follows:

[0034] Drying tank 1: As shown in Figure 1 , it is used to hold the soap base 2 to be dried and is the carrier container for the entire drying process.

[0035] Heater 3: As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , it heats the soap base 2 to promote water evaporation. The heater 3 is configured with a plurality of heating rings 301 evenly distributed at equal intervals in the vertical direction. According to the position sequence from low to high, the heating power of the heating rings 301 increases in turn, so that the soap base 2 is gradually heated from the bottom up, which is beneficial to the uniform evaporation of internal moisture and avoids local overheating.

[0036] Lifting plate 4: As shown inFigure 1 , Figure 4 , a lifting frame 401 is fixedly installed at the top and can move vertically under the drive of a lifter 5, so as to adjust the distance between the flat sponge member 8 and the surface layer of the soap base 2. The lifting frame 401 is fixedly connected to the lifting shaft 501 of the lifter 5, and functions to connect the lifting disc 4 and the lifter 5.

[0037] Lifter 5: As shown in Figure 1 , it is configured with a vertically downward lifting shaft 501 to drive the lifting disc 4 to move vertically. The lifting shaft 501 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 401 to realize the drive of the lifter 5 on the lifting disc 4.

[0038] Lower connecting rod 6: As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , a plurality of lower connecting rods 6 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the lifting disc 4 and are used to connect the lifting disc 4 and the outer frame structure 7.

[0039] Outer frame structure 7: As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , the bottom ends of a plurality of lower connecting rods 6 are commonly fixedly connected to the outer frame structure 7, the flat sponge member 8 is placed inside the periphery of the outer frame structure 7, and a piston ring structure that is in sliding contact with the inner wall of the drying tank 1 is provided on the periphery of the outer frame structure 7, which functions to support the flat sponge member 8 and ensure the sealing of the hot air flow area 10 to prevent air leakage from the edge.

[0040] Flat sponge member 8: As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3 , it is located above the surface layer of the soap base 2, and an alloy material support skeleton for maintaining the shape of the flat sponge member 8 is configured inside or on the outer surface layer. An evaporation gap 9 is formed between it and the surface layer of the soap base 2, and a hot air flow area 10 is formed between it and the lifting disc 4. It can absorb the moisture released from the surface layer of the soap base 2, form a wet medium layer between the surface layer of the soap base 2 and the drying air flow, avoid direct contact between the drying air flow and the surface layer of the soap base 2, prevent the formation of a hard shell on the surface, and at the same time accelerate the moisture evaporation through its own adsorption effect. An air flow upward opening 801 is opened at the central position of the flat sponge member 8, and the excess moist air flow in the evaporation gap 9 can be discharged upward through this opening into the hot air flow area 10 to ensure smooth air flow in the evaporation gap 9 and prevent water vapor accumulation.

[0041] Evaporation gap 9: As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , it is located between the flat sponge member 8 and the surface layer of the soap base 2 and is the space for the evaporation of the moisture of the soap base 2.

[0042] Hot air flow area 10: As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 , it is located between the flat sponge member 8 and the lifting disc 4 and is used to accommodate the moist air flow discharged from the evaporation gap 9 and the dry air flow processed by the heating and dehumidification mechanism 15.

[0043] Gas collecting pipe 11: As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , it is located at the center of the lifting plate 4 and is connected to the hot air flow area 10. There are multiple annular side air inlets 1101 at the bottom of the annular side surface, which are used to collect the air flow in the hot air flow area 10. The multiple annular side air inlets 1101 at the bottom of the annular side surface of the gas collecting pipe 11 facilitate the air flow in the hot air flow area 10 to enter the gas collecting pipe 11. A distance sensor 20 is configured at the bottom end of the gas collecting pipe 11, and the detection direction is vertically downward and directly opposite to the air flow rising port 801, which is used to detect the distance from the surface of the soap base 2, so as to control the lifting of the lifting plate 4.

[0044] Return air humidity sensor 12: As shown in Figure 1 , it is configured in the gas collecting pipe 11 to detect the humidity of the real-time intake air, and provides a data basis for the heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15 to adjust the working power.

[0045] Return air pipe 13: As shown in Figure 1 , it connects the gas collecting pipe 11 and the air flow pump 14, so that the air flow collected by the gas collecting pipe 11 can be transported to the air flow pump 14. The air flow pump 14 transports the air flow collected by the gas collecting pipe 11 to the heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15.

[0046] Heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15: As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , it adjusts the working power according to the humidity detected by the return air humidity sensor 12, reduces the humidity of the air flow, and heats the circulating air flow at the same time to ensure that the air flow temperature is not lower than the preset air flow reference temperature of the system, so that the dry air flow can continuously and efficiently take away moisture. An intake air temperature sensor 16 is configured at the intake end of the heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15 to monitor the air flow temperature entering the heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15. An outlet air temperature sensor 17 is configured at the outlet end of the heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15 to monitor the air flow temperature discharged from the heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15, so as to better control the heating and dehumidifying process and ensure that the air flow temperature meets the drying requirements. The outlet end of the heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15 is connected to the intake pipe 18 to transport the processed dry air flow to the wide-mouth outlet nozzle 19.

[0047] Wide-mouth outlet nozzle 19: As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , multiple wide-mouth outlet nozzles 19 are arranged at equal intervals in the edge area of the lifting plate 4. The dried air flow is re-injected into the hot air flow area 10 through the wide-mouth outlet nozzles 19 to realize the recycling of the air flow, improve the drying efficiency, and the area enclosed by the distribution positions of the multiple wide-mouth outlet nozzles 19 is matched with the distribution range of the flat sponge part 8, which can more comprehensively evaporate and take away the heat and moisture of the flat sponge part 8.

[0048] Evaporation humidity sensor 21: As shown in Figure 1, fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the lifting plate 4, is used to detect the humidity of the hot air flow area 10, so as to judge the moisture content of the hot air flow area 10 during the drying process, and provide a data basis for the subsequent control of the equipment operation.

[0049] Embodiment 2: The present invention designs an efficient drying method for soap base after washing, and the specific content is as follows:

[0050] Step 1: Slowly inject the quantitative soap base 2 into the drying tank 1. After standing for a period of time, the elevator 5 drives the lifting plate 4 and the flat sponge member 8 to move downward. When the distance sensor 20 detects that the distance to the surface layer of the soap base 2 is L, the lifting plate 4 stops descending. At this time, the vertical height of the evaporation gap 9 reaches the preset standard parameter. This step can ensure that the size of the evaporation gap 9 is appropriate, which is beneficial to water evaporation and air flow. Among them, the elevator 5 adjusts the distance between the flat sponge member 8 and the surface layer of the soap base 2 by driving the lifting plate 4 to move. The distance sensor 20 is used to measure the distance to the surface layer of the soap base 2, so as to control the position of the lifting plate 4. The evaporation gap 9 is the key space for the water evaporation of the soap base 2.

[0051] Step 2: According to the position information of the elevator 5 driving the flat sponge member 8 to descend and the distance information of the soap base 2 surface layer detected by the distance sensor 20, judge the heating ring 301 located below the horizontal position of the soap base 2 surface layer, and drive the heating ring 301 to start working. Here, the elevator 5 and the distance sensor 20 provide data to determine the working state of the heating ring 301, which is responsible for heating the soap base 2.

[0052] Step 3: The water in the soap base 2 is heated and evaporated into the evaporation gap 9. The flat sponge member 8 absorbs the water in the evaporation gap 9. At the same time, the excess humid air flow in the evaporation gap 9 is discharged upward from the air flow rising port 801 of the flat sponge member 8 into the hot air flow area 10. Through the adsorption of the flat sponge member 8 and the exhaust function of the air flow rising port 801, the preliminary collection and discharge of water are realized. Among them, the flat sponge member 8 forms a wet medium layer between the surface layer of the soap base 2 and the drying air flow, avoiding the direct contact between the drying air flow and the surface layer of the soap base 2. The air flow rising port 801 provides a discharge channel for the humid air flow in the evaporation gap 9, and the hot air flow area 10 is used to accommodate and discharge the humid air flow.

[0053] Step 4: The air flow pump 14 and the heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15 are started. The air flow discharged into the hot air flow area 10 enters the gas collecting pipe 11. The return air humidity sensor 12 in the gas collecting pipe 11 detects the humidity of the real-time intake air. The heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15 adjusts the working power according to the humidity of the real-time intake air, reduces the air flow humidity, and re-injects it into the hot air flow area 10 from the intake pipe 18 and the wide-mouth air outlet 19. This step realizes the cyclic dehumidification and heating of the air flow, ensures the drying capacity of the dry air flow, and continuously takes away the moisture discharged from the soap base 2. The air flow pump 14 is responsible for transporting the air flow. The heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15 dehumidifies and heats the air flow. The gas collecting pipe 11 collects the air flow in the hot air flow area 10. The return air humidity sensor 12 detects the air flow humidity. The intake pipe 18 and the wide-mouth air outlet 19 send the processed air flow back to the hot air flow area 10 again.

[0054] Step 5: When the distance sensor 20 detects that the surface of the soap base 2 drops, the lifter 5 drives the lifting plate 4 to descend synchronously until the distance sensor 20 detects that the distance from the surface of the soap base 2 is L. At the same time, the heating ring 301 above the horizontal position of the surface of the soap base 2 stops working. This step can adjust the distance between the flat sponge part 8 and the soap base 2 in real time according to the drying condition of the soap base 2, maintain the optimal evaporation gap 9, and stop heating at unnecessary positions at the same time, saving energy.

[0055] Step 6: When the evaporation humidity sensor 21 or the return air humidity sensor 12 detects that the humidity in the hot air flow area 10 is lower than the preset reference humidity, the heater 3 stops heating, and the system delay module is started. If the humidity condition 1 is satisfied within the preset duration T, it is determined that the heating and drying of the soap base 2 in the drying tank 1 is completed, and the air flow pump 14 and the heating and dehumidifying mechanism 15 both stop working. Through humidity judgment and delay confirmation, it is ensured that the soap base 2 meets the drying requirements and over-drying or under-drying is avoided.

[0056] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.

The heating and dehumidifying mechanism (15) adjusts the working power according to the humidity of the real-time intake air, reduces the air flow humidity, and re-injects it into the hot air flow area (10) from the intake pipe (18) and the wide-mouth air outlet nozzle (19); Step 5, when the distance sensor (20) detects that the surface of the soap base (2) descends, the elevator (5) drives the lifting plate (4) to descend synchronously until the distance sensor (20) detects that the distance from the surface of the soap base (2) is L. At the same time, the heating ring (301) above the horizontal position of the surface of the soap base (2) stops working; Step 6, humidity condition 1: when the evaporation humidity sensor (21) or the return air humidity sensor (12) detects that the humidity in the hot air flow area (10) is lower than the preset reference humidity; If the above humidity condition 1 is satisfied, the heater (3) stops heating and working, and the system delay module is started. If the humidity condition 1 is satisfied within the preset continuous duration T, it is determined that the heating and drying of the soap base (2) in the drying tank (1) is completed, and the air flow pump (14) and the heating and dehumidifying mechanism (15) both stop working.

9. The highly efficient drying method for soap base after washing according to claim 8, characterized in that: The system presets a reference temperature for the air flow. When the heating and dehumidifying mechanism (15) dehumidifies the circulating air flow, it heats the air flow to ensure that the air flow temperature is not lower than the reference temperature of the air flow.
