Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of fiber production technology, specifically to a fiber carding and opening device and a spunlace production line. Background Art

[0002] In the field of modern textiles, nonwovens, and related material processing, efficient fiber processing is a key factor in determining product quality and production efficiency. Carding and opening, as a core pre-process in fiber processing, aims to fully loosen, mix, and comb the fiber raw materials into a uniform fiber web, providing a high-quality foundation for subsequent processes such as hydroentanglement. The typical process of a fiber spunlace production line is different. The typical process involves opening, carding, laying, pre-wetting, spunlace, and dehydration (water removal). Opening is the initial process of loosening the fiber raw material into a loose fiber state. After carding and laying to form a fiber web, pre-wetting is performed to ensure uniform moisture absorption, preparing the web for spunlace. Spunlace then proceeds, using high-pressure water jets to impact the web, entangle and reinforce the fibers. After spunlace, the web passes through a dehydration device to remove moisture, completing the initial processing of the product. In the field of fiber processing, needle rollers are core combing components, and their performance directly determines production efficiency and finished product quality. However, the fixed needle tooth density design of existing needle rollers makes it difficult for the sparse needle teeth to accurately grasp soft fibers such as cashmere and silk, resulting in loose and uneven fiber combing. When processing coarse and hard fibers such as flax and sisal, overly dense needle teeth can easily cause excessive pulling, causing fiber breakage. At the same time, fibers with strong entanglement, such as cotton wool and wool, will become entangled and attached to the needle teeth during the combing process. As the amount of entanglement increases, it not only weakens the combing ability of the needle roller, but also increases the operating resistance. In order to remove entangled fibers, workers need to frequently stop the machine for manual cleaning. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a fiber combing and opening device and a spunlace production line to solve the above problems.

[0003] It should be noted that the above information disclosed in this Background section is only for understanding the background technology of the present application concept, and therefore, it may contain information that does not constitute the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0018] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0019] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0020] like Figures 1-9 As shown, the present application provides a fiber carding and opening device and a spunlace production line, including a carding component 1, a driving component 2, an adjustment component 3, a cleaning component 4, a carding machine 5, a web laying machine 6, a pre-wetting machine 7, a spunlace machine 8 and a dewatering machine 9; The carding assembly 1 includes a processing table 11, on which support side plates 12 are fixedly installed near both ends, and two sets of brackets 13 are fixedly installed on the processing table 11, and a guide roller 14 is mounted on a bearing between the two sets of brackets 13, and the guide roller 14 is used to guide and transport the fiber; like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the driving assembly 2 includes a support plate 21 fixedly mounted on the support side plate 12, a support panel 214 is provided between the two groups of support plates 21, and a certain gap is formed between the support panel 214 and the guide roller 14. The adjusting assembly 3 includes two groups of needle roller portions mounted on the support panel 214 on a side close to the processing table 11, with a certain gap between the two groups of needle roller portions, and the needle roller portion includes two groups of support blocks 31 fixedly mounted on the support panel 214 on a side close to the processing table 11, with a certain distance between the two groups of support blocks 31; A first screw rod 32 is mounted on a bearing between the two groups of support blocks 31. The first screw rod 32 is provided with four groups of spirally opposite thread segments (not shown in the figure), and needle rollers 33 are threadedly connected to the four groups of thread segments. In the initial state, the four groups of needle rollers 33 have the same spacing, and a first motor 34 is embedded in the side of a group of support plates 21. One end of the first motor 34 is connected to the first screw rod 32 of a group of needle roller parts. It should be noted that the needle roller part located on the front side is defined as the first needle roller part, and the needle roller part located on the rear side is defined as the second needle roller part (reference Figure 6 ); A first pulley 35 is sleeved on the first screw rod 32 of the first needle roller part, and a second pulley (not shown in the figure) is sleeved on the first screw rod 32 of the second needle roller part. A belt body 36 is connected between the first pulley 35 and the second pulley. Adjustment assembly 3 dynamically adjusts the spacing between needle rollers 33, effectively addressing the poor adaptability of conventional needle rollers 33 to different fibers. Its operating principle is as follows: a first motor 34 drives the first screw 32 of the first needle roller section, which in turn rotates synchronously via a first pulley 35, a belt body 36, and a second pulley. Four sets of oppositely directed helical threads (alternating left and right) on each screw cause the four needle rollers 33 to move toward or away from each other. When the screw rotates clockwise, the two middle needle rollers 33 move closer together, while the two side needle rollers 33 move away from each other, increasing the density of the needle teeth and making it suitable for processing soft fibers such as cashmere and silk. When the screw rotates counterclockwise, the two middle needle rollers 33 move away from each other, while the two side needle rollers 33 move closer together, decreasing the density of the needle teeth and preventing excessive pulling on coarse fibers such as flax and sisal. By controlling the direction and stroke of the motor, the spacing between the needle rollers 33 can be adjusted in real time to optimize the gripping force and combing effect for different fibers, achieving multi-purpose use of one machine, improving production efficiency and the quality of the finished product. like Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown, there is a certain gap between the support panel 214 and the needle roller 33, and the cleaning assembly 4 is embedded in the support panel 214 on a side close to the processing table 11. The cleaning assembly 4 is provided with two groups, and the cleaning assembly 4 includes a concave frame 41 embedded in the support panel 214 on a side close to the processing table 11, and the concave frame 41 has a groove 42, and a second screw rod 43 is mounted on a bearing between the inner walls of the groove 42, and a sliding block 44 is threadedly connected to the second screw rod 43. At the same time, a limiting rod 45 is fixedly installed between the inner walls of the groove 42, and the sliding block 44 is movably sleeved on the limiting rod 45 at the same time, and a second motor (not shown in the figure) is fixedly installed on the side of the support plate 21, and the output end of the second motor passes through the support plate 21 and is connected to one end of the second screw rod 43; When the motor is started, it drives the second screw rod 43 to rotate. The sliding block 44 threadedly connected to the second screw rod 43 is movably sleeved on the limiting rod 45 between the inner walls of the groove 42. The limiting rod 45 ensures that the sliding block 44 can only reciprocate along the axial direction of the screw rod and cannot rotate. As the second screw rod 43 rotates, the sliding block 44 moves linearly in the groove 42 along the limiting rod 45. The cleaning cover 411 is detachably mounted on the bottom surface of the sliding block 44. The cleaning cover 411 is an annular structure, and the inner diameter of the cleaning cover 411 is larger than the diameter of the needle roller 33. A waist groove (not shown in the figure) is provided on the inner wall of the cleaning cover 411 for the fiber filaments to pass through. At the same time, a fixed pipe (not shown in the figure) is connected to the cleaning cover 411. The fixed pipe passes through the sliding block 44 and the concave frame 41 in sequence, and an auxiliary plate 413 is fixedly mounted on the side of the support plate 21. A pipe cover 414 is mounted on the auxiliary plate 413. A fan is provided on the inner wall of the pipe cover 414, and a hose 415 is connected between the pipe cover 414 and the fixed pipe. At the same time, a right-angle pipe 416 is threadedly connected to the other end of the pipe cover 414, and one end of the right-angle pipe 416 is suitable for being connected to an external dust collecting device. At the same time, comb-tooth-shaped teeth 412 are provided along the radial direction of the cleaning cover 411. There is a small gap between the comb-tooth-shaped teeth 412 and the needles of the needle roller 33. The comb-tooth-shaped teeth 412 are suitable for removing the limiter wrapped around the needles of the needle roller 33. When the second motor drives the second screw 43 to rotate, the sliding block 44, constrained by the limiting rod 45, moves back and forth along the screw's axis, driving the annular cleaning cover 411 on the bottom surface to move synchronously. The inner diameter of the cleaning cover 411 is larger than that of the needle roller 33, and the comb-shaped teeth 412 on its inner wall maintain a slight gap with the needle roller 33. As the cleaning cover 411 moves, the comb-shaped teeth 412 forcibly remove fibers entangled with the needle roller 33. Simultaneously, when the fan is activated, negative pressure is created within the tube cover 414, which draws air through the hose 415 and fixed tube into the waist groove of the cleaning cover 411, generating a high-speed rotating airflow within. Fibers removed by the comb-tooth plucking teeth 412 are rapidly drawn into the fixed tube by the airflow and discharged through the hose 415, tube cover 414, and right-angle tube 416 (which can be connected to a dust collector). The bidirectional movement of the sliding block 44 allows the cleaning cover 411 to cover the entire length of the needle roller 33, achieving a combined cleaning process of stripping and airflow adsorption. This prevents fiber residue and eliminates the need for manual intervention, improving cleaning efficiency and equipment continuity. The detachable design of the cleaning cover 411 facilitates maintenance and replacement, ensuring that the comb-tooth plucking teeth 412 maintain their efficient plucking capabilities.

[0021] like Figure 8As shown, specifically, the sliding block 44 is provided with a fixing unit, which realizes the detachability between the cleaning cover 411 and the sliding block 44, and the fixing unit includes a second clamping ring 47 fixedly mounted on the sliding block 44, and the second clamping ring 47 is provided with a through long groove for the fixing pipe to pass through (not shown in the figure), a first clamping ring 46 is hingedly connected to one end of the second clamping ring 47, and a rotating shaft 48 is movably connected to one end of the second clamping ring 47, and a notch groove 49 adapted to the diameter of the rotating shaft 48 is provided at one end of the first clamping ring 46, the second clamping ring 47 is adapted to fit and dock with the first clamping ring 46 to hold the cleaning cover 411, and the rotating shaft 48 is adapted to be rotatably engaged in the notch groove 49, and a fastener 410 is threadedly connected to the rotating shaft 48, and the fastener 410 is adapted to fit on one end surface of the first clamping ring 46; The cleaning cover 411 and the sliding block 44 are quickly assembled and disassembled by means of a hinged clamping ring and a threaded fastening structure. During installation, the fixing tube of the cleaning cover 411 passes through the through-long slot of the second clamping ring 47. The first clamping ring 46 rotates around the hinge point and abuts against the second clamping ring 47, forming an annular structure to hold the cleaning cover 411. After the rotating shaft 48 is engaged with the notched slot 49 of the first clamping ring 46, the threaded fastener 410 (such as a nut) is tightened to abut against the surface of the first clamping ring 46. The clamping ring is locked by axial force, ensuring that the cleaning cover 411 is secure. To disassemble, reverse the process, loosen fastener 410, rotate shaft 48 out of notch 49, and open first clamp ring 46 to remove cleaning cover 411. This design utilizes a combination of hinged opening and closing and a single threaded pair to quickly replace cleaning cover 411 without tools, meeting the needs of frequent equipment maintenance. The clamp ring's annular holding structure also ensures the stability of cleaning cover 411 during movement, preventing airflow leakage that could affect cleaning results.

[0022] like Figure 3-Figure 7 As shown, specifically, the driving assembly 2 also includes a connecting frame 22 fixedly connected between the two groups of support plates 21, and two groups of pushing units are provided in the connecting frame 22. The two groups of pushing units are suitable for respectively realizing up and down reciprocating pushing with the two end positions of the support panel 214, so that the needle roller 33 loosens the fibers passing through the guide roller 14, and the pushing unit includes a third motor 23 fixedly installed in the connecting frame 22, and a rotating shaft 231 is fixedly installed at the output end of the third motor 23. At the same time, two groups of support rods 25 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the connecting frame 22, and a vertically arranged rotating column 26 is installed on the bearing between the two groups of support rods 25; A spiral groove 27 is provided on the rotating column 26 along the circumferential direction. At the same time, a linkage rod 28 is movably passed through between the two groups of support rods 25. A sliding buckle portion 29 is sleeved on the linkage rod 28. The sliding buckle portion 29 is in the spiral groove 27 in the default state. An opening box 222 is fixedly installed on the surface close to each other on the two groups of support plates 21. At the same time, a through groove (not marked in the figure) larger than the size of the opening box 222 is provided on the support panel 214. A first spring 211 is fixedly installed on the top of the inner wall of the opening box 222, and a push rod 210 passes through the center of the first spring 211. A connecting shaft 213 is fixedly connected between one end of the two groups of push rods 210. A sleeve portion 215 is sleeved on the connecting shaft 213, and the sleeve portion 215 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the support panel 214. The other end of the first spring 211 is abutted against the connecting shaft 213. At the same time, one end of the push rod 210 passes through the connecting frame 22 and has a small gap with one end of the linkage rod 28. The rotating column 26 has a roller shaft, which passes through the support rod 25 and is fixedly mounted with a second bevel gear 24 at one end of the roller shaft. At the same time, a first bevel gear 232 is fixedly mounted at one end of the rotating shaft 231, and the first bevel gear 232 is meshed with the second bevel gear 24. The operating principle of the drive assembly 2 is as follows: the third motor 23 drives the rotating shaft 231 to rotate, which, through the meshing transmission of the first bevel gear 232 and the second bevel gear 24, causes the vertically mounted rotating column 26 to rotate synchronously. The spiral groove 27 on the circumferential direction of the rotating column 26 cooperates with the sliding buckle 29 on the linkage rod 28, converting the rotational motion of the rotating column 26 into the vertical linear motion of the linkage rod 28. As the linkage rod 28 moves up and down, the gap between its end and the push rod 210 changes. The first spring 211 in the opening box 222 elastically supports the push rod 210, causing the push rod 210 to move up and down synchronously with the linkage rod 28. Push rod 210 is fixedly connected to support panel 214 via connecting shaft 213 and sleeve 215, thereby driving support panel 214 and the needle roller 33 mounted below it to achieve up and down reciprocating motion. Two sets of push units act on both ends of support panel 214, ensuring that the needle roller 33 vibrates smoothly as a whole, loosening the fibers passing through guide roller 14.

[0023] When the third motor 23 continues to operate, the spiral groove 27 of the rotating column 26 forces the slider 29 to slide along the groove, causing the linkage rod 28 to perform periodic lifting and lowering motions. In its initial state, the first spring 211 abuts the connecting shaft 213, maintaining contact between the push rod 210 and the linkage rod 28, ensuring stable motion transmission. The needle roller 33 below the support panel 214 vibrates up and down with the panel, and its needles repeatedly contact and separate from the fibers, creating a "beating"-like loosening effect, effectively combing the fiber bundles and removing impurities. The through-groove design allows the support panel 214 to vibrate freely outside the open box 222, avoiding structural interference. The elasticity of the spring cushions vibration shocks, extending the service life of the equipment. This structure achieves active vibration of the needle rollers through mechanical transmission, improving fiber opening efficiency and uniformity compared to traditional static carding methods.

[0024] like Figure 6-Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, specifically, two sets of toggle units are installed on the support panel 214, and the toggle units are spaced apart from the needle roller 33. The toggle units include a connecting piece 216 fixedly mounted on the support panel 214 near the processing table 11. A guide rod 217 is installed through the connecting piece 216. One end of the guide rod 217 is installed through the support panel 214. At the same time, a second spring 218 is sleeved on the guide rod 217. One end of the second spring 218 is connected to the connecting piece 216. At the same time, a limiting piece (not shown in the figure) is sleeved on the guide rod 217, and the other end of the second spring 218 is connected to the limiting piece. A fixing sleeve 219 is fixedly mounted on one end of the guide rod 217, and a connecting plate 220 is fixedly mounted on the fixing sleeve 219. A toggle plate 221 is mounted between the two sets of connecting plates 220 via bolts. The toggle plate 221 is used to level the fibers after the needle roller 33 has opened them. The connecting piece 216 on the support panel 214 is connected to the fixed sleeve 219 via a guide rod 217. The guide rod 217 can slide up and down along the through hole of the connecting piece 216. A second spring 218 is sleeved on the guide rod 217, with one end abutting the connecting piece 216 and the other end fixed to the guide rod 217 via a limiting plate, forming an elastic support structure. After the needle roller 33 loosens the fibers, the toggle plate 221 is elastically pressed against the fiber surface by the second spring 218. As the support panel 214 vibrates or the fibers move, the toggle plate 221 adaptively floats with the guide rod 217 via the connecting plate 220 and the fixed sleeve 219. Using its own curvature or surface structure, the toggle plate 221 further flattens and straightens the loosened fiber bundles, eliminating localized accumulation or entanglement and achieving a more even fiber distribution.

[0025] When the fiber moves on the guide roller 14, the toggle plate 221 is affected by the resistance of the fiber or the vibration of the support panel 214. The guide rod 217 slides up and down along the connecting piece 216, and the second spring 218 is compressed or stretched accordingly, providing dynamic buffering force. This elastic floating mechanism ensures that the toggle plate 221 can effectively contact the fiber for leveling operation without causing excessive squeezing or damage to the fiber. The design of the bolt allows the installation angle and position of the toggle plate 221 to be adjusted to meet the processing requirements of different types of fibers. By working together with the needle roller 33, the toggle unit performs secondary finishing on the fibers after the opening process, improving the flatness and uniformity of the fiber web, and laying a good foundation for subsequent processes such as hydroentanglement reinforcement.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, specifically, the overall process of the fiber spunlace production line includes a combing component 1, a web laying machine 5, a pre-wetting machine 6, a spunlace machine 7 and a dewatering machine 8: the combing component 1 drives the distance between the needle rollers 33 to change dynamically through the screw of the adjustable needle roller part (such as the bidirectional thread design to realize the opposite / opposite movement of the needle rollers 33), adapting to the combing needs of fibers of different coarse and fine sizes, and the cleaning component 4 automatically removes the fibers entangled by the needle rollers 33; the combed fibers are cross-laid into a uniform fiber web by the web laying machine 5; the pre-wetting machine 6 pre-wet the fiber web by spraying or rolling to improve the fiber cohesion; the spunlace machine 7 uses high-pressure water to flow through multiple spunlace heads to puncture the fiber web, so that the fibers are entangled and formed, and the supporting water circulation system prevents nozzle clogging through multi-stage filtration; the dewatering machine 8 removes moisture from the spunlace fiber web through vacuum suction or roller squeezing, laying the foundation for subsequent drying and winding processes. The entire process realizes efficient and continuous operation from fiber combing to non-woven fabric forming, effectively solving the problems of poor fiber adaptability and frequent maintenance of traditional equipment.

[0027] In summary, the fiber combing and loosening device and spunlace production line rotate the screw driven by the motor of the adjustment component 3, and utilizes the spiral grooves 27 with opposite spirals to make the needle rollers 33 move toward or away from each other, dynamically adjusting the needle tooth density to adapt to the combing needs of fibers of different thicknesses; the motor of the cleaning component 4 drives the sliding block 44 to move back and forth along the screw, and the comb-tooth-type extraction teeth 412 of the cleaning cover 411 peel off the entangled fibers on the needle roller 33, while the negative pressure airflow of the fan sucks the peeled fibers into the dust collection device to achieve automatic cleaning; the motor of the driving component 2 drives the needle roller 33 to vibrate up and down through the bevel gear transmission and the spiral groove 27 mechanism to loosen the fibers, and cooperates with the elastic toggle plate 221 of the toggle unit to adaptively float, so as to smooth and straighten the loosened fibers. The spunlace production line then passes the combed fibers through the processes of laying, pre-wetting, spunlace, and dehydration in sequence, realizing continuous production from fiber to non-woven fabric.

[0028] The fixed tooth density of traditional needle rollers 33 cannot account for different fiber characteristics. This device dynamically adjusts the spacing of the needle rollers 33. When processing fine and soft fibers such as cashmere, the needle rollers 33 converge toward the center to increase the tooth density and improve grasping accuracy. When processing coarse and hard fibers such as flax, the needle rollers 33 disperse to the sides to reduce the tooth density and avoid excessive pulling and breakage. This design solves the problem of traditional needle rollers 33 loosely combing fine and soft fibers and easily breaking coarse and hard fibers. It achieves the adaptive processing of multiple fiber types with one machine, reduces downtime caused by changing needle rollers 33, improves production efficiency, and reduces fiber damage rate, ensuring the stability of the finished product quality.

[0029] To address the problem of cotton, wool, and other fibers easily tangling around the needle teeth, requiring frequent downtime for cleaning, this device uses the comb-shaped teeth extraction 412 of the cleaning component 4 in synergy with the negative pressure airflow to simultaneously remove tangled fibers while the equipment is operating, eliminating the need for manual intervention and significantly reducing the frequency of downtime for cleaning. The detachable design of the cleaning cover 411 enables quick disassembly and assembly through an articulated clamp ring and a threaded fastening structure, facilitating maintenance and replacement, further improving the continuity of equipment operation. In addition, the vibration loosening of the drive component 2 and the leveling action of the toggle unit make the fibers more evenly combed, reducing the possibility of fiber accumulation and entanglement, reducing the need for cleaning at the source, and improving the overall automation level and reliability of the production line.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
