Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of carbon fiber production, in particular to a carbon fiber pre-oxidation device. Background Art
[0002] The carbon fiber pre-oxidation furnace is a core piece of equipment in the carbon fiber production process, primarily used to pre-oxidize polyacrylonitrile (PAN) precursor. During this process, the PAN fibers undergo chemical cross-linking under a controlled temperature and oxidizing atmosphere, forming a thermally stable trapezoidal structure. This paves the way for subsequent high-temperature carbonization and prevents fiber melting or deformation.
[0003] There is a patent in the prior art with application number CN202411001726.7 that provides a carbon fiber pre-oxidation processing device, including a base, with support legs fixedly installed at the four corners of the top of the base, an oxidation box fixedly installed on the top of the support legs, a tensioning mechanism provided in the oxidation box, and an oxygen supply mechanism fixedly installed inside the oxidation box. The heater assemblies at the top and bottom of the oxidation box uniformly heat the carbon fiber through electric heating wires, and the tensioning force of the carbon fiber can be flexibly adjusted through the setting of the tensioning mechanism.
[0004] However, the pre-oxidation processing device provided by the above patent still has the following deficiencies during use: According to its content, the oxidation box is equipped with multiple sets of tensioning mechanisms, and is equipped with adjustment components to synchronously control the multiple sets of tensioning mechanisms. In the actual carbon fiber oxidation process, the carbon fiber is usually heated and oxidized at a gradient temperature. The synchronous adjustment of the multiple sets of tensioning mechanisms in the above patent results in the carbon fiber being subjected to the same tension at different temperatures, which is mismatched with the gradient temperature. In the low-temperature stage, the fiber undergoes a violent cyclization reaction, with a shrinkage rate of up to 10% to 15%. If the tension is insufficient, the shrinkage cannot be effectively suppressed. In the high-temperature stage, the fiber has formed a rigid trapezoidal structure, and the toughness has dropped significantly. At this time, applying the same high tension as in the low-temperature zone will expand the surface defects of the fiber, resulting in a decrease in tensile strength and even broken wires.

[0029] A plurality of gas outlets 13 are arranged in an array along the length of the oxygen supply tube 12 .
[0030] When the present invention is used: Carbon fibers enter the pre-oxidation box 1 from the entrance and sequentially pass through three pre-oxidation zones separated by thermal insulation panels 6. In each pre-oxidation zone, the fibers pass over guide roller 3 25 of the material guide assembly 15 and guide rollers 1 19 and 20 of the tension isolation and buffer assembly 16 before being pulled out by a winding device at the end of the process.
[0031] 1. Temperature gradient setting: Each pre-oxidation zone is independently temperature-controlled, and the three pre-oxidation zones from left to right correspond to the low-temperature zone, medium-temperature zone and high-temperature zone respectively; the low-temperature zone has a greater tension on the carbon fiber to inhibit shrinkage, and the high-temperature zone needs to reduce the tension to prevent brittle fracture.
[0032] The temperature sensor feeds back data to the control module to adjust the power of the heater 42.
[0033] 2. Tension gradient adjustment to adapt to temperature gradient in different pre-oxidation zones: The motor 23 of the wrap angle adjustment assembly drives the bidirectional screw 27 to drive the two mounting strips 28 to slide closer or away, driving the two guide rollers 20 to move closer or away, thereby changing the contact wrap angle θ between the fiber and the guide roller 19; according to the Coulomb friction model T out =T in *e μθ , in the high temperature zone, the wrap angle θ is reduced and the tension increase is reduced.
[0034] The spring damper 29 in the buffer assembly absorbs sudden changes in tension, and the slider 30 on the vertical plate 18 slides to compensate for changes in fiber length, thereby isolating tension interference in adjacent temperature zones.
[0035] In the tension adjustment assembly, tension sensors 35 monitor the carbon fiber tension in the corresponding temperature zones in real time. The control module adjusts the electric push rod 32 to raise and lower the tension roller 34, dynamically balancing the tension. Ultimately, the tension in the three pre-oxidation zones decreases sequentially, for example, from 100 N / m to 80 N / m to 60 N / m, achieving tension gradient control that adapts to temperature gradients.
[0036] In the present invention, the tension isolation and buffer assembly 16, comprising guide rollers 19 and 20, and the wrap angle adjustment assembly, combined with a control module, allows independent tension adjustment in the three pre-oxidation zones. The buffering design of the spring damper 29 and slider 30 absorbs certain tension fluctuations and prevents wire breakage.
[0037] Therefore, this device solves the problem of carbon fiber tension mismatch under gradient temperature in the prior art through the collaboration of the tension isolation buffer component 16, the material guide component 15 and the control module; specifically, the physical mechanism of wrap angle adjustment and buffer isolation, combined with real-time feedback control, enables the tension gradient to be accurately realized.
[0038] Example 2:
[0039] See also Figures 1 to 4 、 Figure 12 and Figure 13 On the basis of Example 1, three transition cavities 36 are arranged in an array along the length direction of the top plate 8 and are respectively located directly above the three pre-oxidation zones, and the transition cavities 36 are located above the exhaust cavity 38; Three oxygen supply pipes 3 are fixedly mounted on one side of the top plate 8 near the side plate 9, each of which is connected to the three transition cavities 36. A flow valve 4 is provided in the oxygen supply pipe 3. The end of the oxygen supply pipe 3 away from the top plate 8 is connected to an external oxygen supply device. Three air ducts 7 are fixedly mounted on one side of the top plate 8 near the second side plate 10, each of which is connected to the three transition cavities 36. The end of the air duct 7 away from the top plate 8 passes through the second side plate 10 near the lower portion of the second side plate 10 to the corresponding pre-oxidation zone and is then connected to the oxygen introduction assembly. A plurality of array-distributed baffles 37 are fixedly connected to both ends of the transition cavity 36 along its length direction. The top of the baffle 37 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the transition cavity 36, and the bottom of the baffle 37 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the transition cavity 36. The baffle 37 is parallel to the length direction of the transition cavity 36, and the length of the baffle 37 is less than the length of the transition cavity 36. The multiple baffles 37 at both ends of the transition cavity 36 are staggered to form an S-shaped oxygen channel in the transition cavity 36.
[0040] The oxygen introduction assembly includes an oxygen supply pipe 12 fixedly installed in the oxidation zone. One end of the oxygen supply pipe 12 is closed, and the other end is fixedly connected to the end of the air guide pipe 7 away from the top plate 8.
[0041] Oxygen enters transition cavity 36 through oxygen delivery pipe 3, where it prolongs its flow time in the S-shaped path formed by interlaced baffles 37 and is preheated by the high-temperature exhaust gas in exhaust chamber 38. After preheating, the oxygen enters oxygen supply pipe 12 through air guide pipe 7 and is evenly sprayed into the pre-oxidation zone through multiple outlets 13, ensuring uniform oxidation reaction. Simultaneously, the reaction waste gas enters exhaust chamber 38 through through-hole 39 and is directed through exhaust pipe 5 to the purification system, preventing the accumulation of harmful gases such as HCN.
[0042] Among them, the S-shaped channel design of the transition cavity 36 significantly improves the oxygen preheating efficiency, reduces external heating energy consumption, and improves resource utilization.
[0043] The spacing between the gas outlets 13 of the oxygen supply tube 12 is optimized to reduce oxygen concentration deviation and avoid local overoxidation.
[0044] Example 3:
[0045] See also Figure 1Based on Example 2, three doors 2 corresponding to the three pre-oxidation zones are installed on the side of side panel 1 (9). The doors 2 of side panel 1 (9) support quick disassembly to replace the guide rollers or clean the oxygen supply pipe (12), improving the practicality of the device.
[0046] Example 4:
[0047] See also Figures 1 to 13 , based on Example 3, a control process of a control module is provided; Temperature Control: Heating element configuration: Heater 42 regulates heating power through current. A temperature sensor monitors temperature in real time and transmits the information to the control module. A gradient temperature curve is pre-set in the control module. A PID algorithm dynamically adjusts heater power to achieve gradient temperature control.
[0048] 2. Tension Gradient Generation Mechanism In the wrap angle adjustment assembly, the motor 23 drives the bidirectional screw 27 to rotate, so that the mounting strip 28 moves along the slide bar 26, changing the distance between the two guide rollers 20, thereby adjusting the wrap angle θ of the fiber.
[0049] In the buffer isolation assembly, the spring damper 29 provides stroke buffering, and the slider 30 slides to compensate for changes in fiber length, thereby isolating tension interference in adjacent temperature zones.
[0050] In the tension adjustment component 14, The electric push rod 32 drives the tension roller 34 to rise and fall, changing the fiber path length and adjusting the local tension; the tension sensor 35 provides real-time feedback data, and the control module adjusts the stroke of the electric push rod through the PID algorithm.
[0051] Control logic example: If the tension in the temperature zone is lower than the set value, the wrap angle θ between the guide roller 20 and the guide roller 1 19 is increased, and at the same time, the electric push rod 32 descends to release the fiber to maintain stable tension.
[0052] 3. Implementation of automatic adjustment: Input signals: temperature sensor, oxygen concentration sensor and tension sensor 35; Output execution: power of heater 42, speed and start / stop of motor 23, stroke of electric push rod 32, opening of flow valve 4; Specifically: Temperature-tension coupling: Automatically adjusts the guide roller wrap angle and electric push rod position according to a preset mapping table (for example, a 1°C increase in temperature results in a 0.5N / mm² decrease in tension); Feedforward compensation: When the oxygen concentration changes by more than ±5%, adjust the oxygen flow valve 4 in advance to avoid the influence of oxidation rate fluctuation on tension.
[0053] The control module can use an industrial PLC, such as the Siemens S7-1200, which supports multi-channel PID control. Its software logic is based on IEC61131-3 standard programming, calling standard library functions to implement sensor data processing and actuator driving, without involving custom algorithms. When working specifically: Startup phase: The control module loads the preset parameters (temperature gradient, target tension); The heater is heated to the target temperature and the flow valve 4 is opened to supply oxygen.
[0054] Operation phase: Temperature zone 1 (low temperature): Wrap angle θ = 120°, tension 100 N / m, to suppress fiber shrinkage; The oxygen is preheated and then sprayed evenly.
[0055] Temperature zone 2 (medium temperature): θ = 90°, tension 80 N / m, the buffer component absorbs the shrinkage stress of the cyclization reaction; The control module dynamically adjusts the electric push rod 32 to compensate for tension fluctuations.
[0056] Temperature zone 3 (high temperature): θ = 60°, tension 60 N / m, spring damper 29 to prevent brittle fracture; During the process, the exhaust pipe 5 discharges the exhaust gas to maintain a stable oxygen concentration.
[0057] During the process, if the tension suddenly changes, an emergency stop is triggered and the electric push rod 32 returns to release the fiber; Among them, PLC, PID algorithm and sensor feedback are all common industrial technologies. The present invention combines innovatively designed tension adjustment components and tension isolation buffer components with existing control technologies to achieve independent temperature control of partitions, dynamic adjustment of the guide roller wrap angle, spring damping buffering and existing control, thereby achieving precise matching of the increasing temperature gradient and decreasing tension gradient during the pre-oxidation process of carbon fiber, and improving the pre-oxidation effect of carbon fiber.
