Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a hanging type veneer drying device, in particular to a drying device used in an actual production line, belonging to the field of plywood processing equipment. Background Art
[0002] In plywood production, the moisture content of the raw veneer is a crucial factor affecting the quality of the finished product. The plywood industrial park is perpetually filled with the damp aroma of eucalyptus. As China's largest eucalyptus veneer production base (accounting for 35% of the country's annual output), Guangxi Chongzuo's plywood industry faces three structural contradictions: First, land resources and policy restrictions: Traditional drying requires more than 50m 2 The drying yards are open-air, while Guangxi's average annual rainfall reaches 1,500 mm, and the mildew rate exceeds 20% during the rainy season. Long-term waterlogging in the drying yards causes the veneers to come into direct contact with the wet ground, exacerbating the risk of mildew. National farmland protection policies strictly restrict the expansion of industrial land, making it impossible for companies to alleviate production capacity pressures by expanding their drying yards. Second, a vicious cycle of labor costs: manual handling costs account for as much as 42% of total drying costs, and despite a monthly salary of 7,500 yuan (25% higher than in Yunnan), there is still a labor shortage. Manually loading a single veneer onto a shelf takes 10 seconds (versus just 3 seconds with equipment), creating an efficiency bottleneck that restricts production capacity. Manual handling results in a 3% veneer bending and breakage rate, further increasing raw material losses. Third, technical alternatives have shortcomings: tunnel drying room energy consumption reaches 120kWh / m 3 , and the stacking and drying causes the moisture content difference between the inner and outer layers to be greater than 5%; the moisture content fluctuation (±4%) far exceeds the 8±1% required by export markets such as Thailand. In 2023, 67% of the returned containers at Qinzhou Port were due to bursting problems; the hot pressing process caused the bursting rate to exceed 8% due to uneven moisture content, and quality claims occurred frequently.
[0003] Under the multiple pressures of tightening land policies, soaring labor costs, and rising export quality thresholds, traditional natural air drying and inefficient mechanical drying can no longer support the sustainable development of Guangxi's plywood industry with an annual output value of 35 billion yuan. There is an urgent need to develop a new drying system with small footprint, high degree of automation, and precise moisture content control. 2 ), to circumvent the land restrictions for drying yards.

The rotating arm II of the rotary circulation station II of Drying Line II rotates 0-180° to deliver the clamping and hanging mechanism II sent out from the unloading station I of Drying Line I to the loading station II and then to the loading and handling station II.
[0007] The device of the present invention also includes a conventional controller, which is respectively connected to the belt conveyor, double-strip conveyor belt, 90° right-angle motor, gripper manipulator, electric cylinder, motor, servo motor, centrifugal fan, circulating fan, and axial flow exhaust fan in the drying single line I and the drying single line II, and is used to control the operation of the above components; the photoelectric sensor of the upper plate station, the photoelectric sensor of the unloading station, and the temperature and humidity sensors are respectively connected to the controller, and the controller is used to receive signals from the above components and control the operation of the above components according to the signals.
[0008] All electrical components in the above devices are connected to a power source; When the above device is used, the centrifugal fan, circulating fan and axial flow exhaust fan on the drying room body are turned on to pass hot air into the drying room body, so that the temperature inside the room is raised to the temperature required for drying; the veneer to be dried is placed on the belt conveyor Ⅰ of the upper plate station Ⅰ in the drying single line Ⅰ, and at the same time the flip plate lifting mechanism is in the plate receiving state. Under the action of the 90° right-angle motor Ⅰ, the bottomless receiving plate is placed between and parallel to the double-strip conveyor belt Ⅰ, and the double-strip conveyor belt Ⅰ sends the veneer to the bottomless receiving plate. When the upper plate station light When the electric sensor detects the signal that the single board enters the double-strip conveyor belt I, the bottomless receiving plate drives the single board to rotate to a state perpendicular to the ground and parallel to the baffle under the action of the 90° right-angle motor I, and the single board that slides into the bottom receiving plate is pressed against the baffle through the clamping protrusion; the rotating arm rotates 0-90° along the rotating arm support frame, and the clamping suspension mechanism sent out from the unloading station II of the drying single line II is sent to the gripper robot I. The fingers of the gripper robot I act on the pressure plate of the clamp and tighten it, and the clamping part of the clamp opens from the closed state, etc. The lifting mechanism for the flip plate is fed; the electric cylinder is turned on and the piston rod is extended, the bottom receiving plate is lifted, and the single board is driven to move upward between the bottomless receiving plate and the baffle and move to the clamping part of the opened clamp. The clamping manipulator I is released, and the clamping part of the clamp is naturally closed to clamp the single board. The clamping suspension mechanism is rotated 90-180 degrees under the action of the rotating arm to the arc track of the loading and handling station I. The clamping suspension mechanism is placed on the arc track. When the photoelectric sensor of the loading station detects that the shifting gear has passed, the guide rod at the bottom of the gear unit I is retracted, and the gear unit The clamping suspension mechanism between gear units I and II slides naturally into the receiving track along the arc track. The guide rod at the bottom of gear unit I is lowered and the guide rod at the bottom of gear unit II is retracted, placing a clamping suspension mechanism between gear units I and II. The motor drives the active sprocket and the driven sprocket to rotate. The shifting teeth on the chain shift the clamping suspension mechanism forward along the receiving track and confine the clamping suspension mechanism between two pairs of shifting teeth. Similarly, the clamping suspension mechanism continuously delivers the clamped veneer to the loading and handling station I for drying. After drying is completed, when the photoelectric sensor I of the unloading station detects that the clamping suspension mechanism is at the exit end of the receiving track, the bottom-type receiving plate is kept vertical to the ground by the 90° right-angle motor, and the fingers of the gripper manipulator II act on the clamps of the clamping suspension mechanism. The veneer falls into the vertical bottom-type receiving plate by its own gravity; 2 seconds after receiving the closing signal of the gripper manipulator II fingers, under the action of the 90° right-angle motor II, the bottom-type receiving plate rotates and tilts with the veneer until the veneer falls onto the double-strip conveyor belt II. Under the action of the conveyor belt, the dried veneer enters the belt conveyor II and is output to the stacking area at a speed of 1m / s; after the photoelectric sensor II of the unloading station detects that the veneer has completely entered the belt conveyor II, the bottom-type receiving plate returns to its vertical state under the action of the 90° right-angle motor II; When the photoelectric sensor Ⅰ of the unloading station Ⅰ detects that the clamping suspension mechanism is at the exit end of the receiving track (0°), the telescopic cylinder Ⅱ of the rotary circulation station Ⅱ in the drying line Ⅱ at the exit end of the receiving track is ventilated, and the telescopic cylinder Ⅱ extends the electromagnet Ⅱ and is energized. When the clamping suspension mechanism reaches the predetermined position at the exit end, it is fixed by magnetic adsorption; when the unloading station operation is completed, the servo motor in the drying line Ⅱ drives the rotating arm Ⅱ to rotate from 0° to 90°, so that the clamping suspension mechanism is separated from the receiving track and enters the loading station Ⅱ of the drying line Ⅱ to load the plate, and then rotates from 90° to 180°, and the electromagnet is de-energized, so that the clamping suspension mechanism enters the loading and handling station Ⅱ to complete the loading, and the rotating arm Ⅱ returns from the drying line Ⅱ to the unloading position in the drying line Ⅰ, and so on. The clamping suspension mechanism is cyclically used between the drying line Ⅰ and the drying line Ⅱ.
[0009] The centrifugal fans and air ducts inside the drying room send hot air into the drying room. The centrifugal fans on both sides form convection to achieve a certain circulation effect of the hot air inside. The circulating fan continues to circulate the rising hot air at a uniform speed to the drying area below for hot air drying. The circulating fan ensures the internal hot air circulation, and the axial exhaust fan is used to discharge the low-temperature air and water vapor; the temperature and humidity sensor is used to detect the temperature and humidity inside the drying room. When the internal temperature or humidity exceeds the preset value, the temperature and humidity sensor on the top sends a signal, and the exhaust fan increases its power output and returns to normal working state when the temperature and humidity drop.
[0010] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: First, drying efficiency is improved: the circulating structure and suspended conveyor ensure that both sides of the veneer are fully heated, completing drying in 15 minutes (compared to 2 hours with traditional processes). The single-line production capacity reaches 500 sheets / hour, and the symmetrical and coordinated layout of the two production lines reaches a circulating capacity of 1,000 sheets / hour. The spacing between the two tine teeth is less than 50mm, and the dense layout increases the hot air utilization rate by 40%, significantly reducing unit energy consumption. Second, precise quality control: Closed-loop timing control reduces moisture content fluctuations to ±0.5% (the industry standard is ±2%), completely resolving the pain point of panel breakage in the export market. Flexible clamping with rubber pads reduces surface damage to less than 0.1%, 30 times lower than manual handling. Third, both production and operating costs are reduced (core advantage): Production cost optimization: Modular design reduces the cost of the entire machine by 25%, and the standardized replacement cost of wearing parts (such as rubber pads and pulleys) is reduced by 60%. Operating costs are drastically reduced: energy consumption per ton of board is 40% less than that of traditional drying rooms, manual intervention is reduced by 90%, and overall operating costs are reduced by 48%. Fourth, efficient use of land resources: the vertical hanging structure of the present invention reduces the floor space to 1 / 10 of the traditional drying yard (50m 2 vs 500 m 2 ), there is no longer any need for artificial drying in the mountains, breaking through the restrictions of arable land policies.
[0011] Fifth, low failure rate: the double-stage interception design of the gear unit ensures zero jamming rate; the loading station is accurate in feeding and precise in clamping, and the rubber pad increases the friction between the veneer raw material and the clamp, ensuring that no veneer is leaked or dropped during the drying process; Sixth, stable transmission and long service life: the chain transmission is stable, the chain transmission system has a tight side sinking design to avoid chain collapse, and the toggle transmission of the shifting teeth and the pulley connecting rod has a wear life of over 8000 hours; Seventh, the present invention is highly independent and does not require large-scale mechanical auxiliary support. It can work independently. The modular design supports the rapid replacement of aging parts, reducing maintenance hours by 70%, which can meet actual work requirements. The present invention combines the above advantages, greatly reduces the production cost and operating cost of the whole machine, integrates PLC control technology in the overall structure, reduces the number of control components, and is simple and convenient to maintain. PLC control ensures accurate connection between the actions of each workstation, each workstation has independent working ability, and the shutdown of a single workstation does not affect the movement of the whole machine.

The bottomless receiving plate 1 is placed between and parallel to the double-strip conveyor belt Ⅰ11 under the action of the 90° right-angle motor Ⅰ6. The double-strip conveyor belt Ⅰ11 sends the veneer to the bottomless receiving plate at a speed of 1m / s. When the photoelectric sensor 12 of the upper plate station detects the veneer entry signal, under the action of the 90° right-angle motor Ⅰ6, the bottomless receiving plate drives the veneer to rotate to a state perpendicular to the ground and aligned parallel to the baffle, and slides into the bottom receiving plate 4 through the clamping protrusion 3. The veneer is pressed against the baffle; the rotating arm 39 rotates 0-90° along the rotating arm support frame 40, and sends the clamping and hanging mechanism sent out from the unloading station II of the drying single line II to the clamping manipulator I7. The fingers of the clamping manipulator I7 act on the pressure plate of the clamp and tighten it. The clamping part of the clamp opens from the closed state to a width of 50mm, waiting for the flap lifting mechanism to feed; the electric cylinder 8 opens the piston rod 9 and extends, and the bottom receiving plate 4 is lifted by 100mm, driving the veneer to move upward between the bottomless receiving plate 1 and the baffle 2 and move into the clamping part of the opened clamp. After the upward movement is in place, the clamping manipulator I7 is released, and the rubber pad 34 in the clamping part of the clamp tightens the veneer (clamping force ≥ 200N); The clamping suspension mechanism rotates to the arc track 14 of the loading and handling station I under the action of the rotating arm 39 and places the clamping suspension mechanism on the arc track. When the photoelectric sensor 17 of the loading station detects that the shifting gear 23 passes by, the guide rod at the bottom of the gear unit I 15 retracts, and the clamping suspension mechanism between the gear unit I 15 and the gear unit II 16 slides naturally along the arc track 14 into the receiving track 25. Then the guide rod at the bottom of the gear unit I is lowered and the guide rod at the bottom of the gear unit II is retracted, placing a clamping suspension mechanism into the gear unit I. Between the position unit I and the gear unit II; the motor 18 drives the active sprocket 20 at a speed of 2r / min to drive the driven sprocket 21 to rotate, and the shifting teeth 23 on the chain 22 shift a clamping suspension mechanism every 5 seconds to move forward along the receiving track and limit the clamping suspension mechanism between two pairs of shifting teeth. Similarly, the clamping suspension mechanism continuously feeds the clamped single board into the receiving track (total length of 20 meters), moves at a constant speed in the hot air drying area for 15 minutes for drying, and then arrives at the unloading station I to wait for the electromagnet 42 to be energized and positioned; After the drying is completed, when the photoelectric sensor I 36 of the unloading station I detects that the clamping suspension mechanism is at the exit end of the receiving track, the bottom-type receiving plate 35 is kept vertical to the ground under the action of the 90° right-angle motor II 34, and the fingers of the gripper manipulator II 43 act on the clamps of the clamping suspension mechanism, and the veneer falls into the bottom-type receiving plate in the vertical state by its own gravity; 2 seconds after receiving the closing signal of the gripper manipulator II fingers, under the action of the 90° right-angle motor II, the bottom-type receiving plate 35 rotates and tilts with the veneer until the veneer falls on the double-strip conveyor belt II 45. Under the action of the conveyor belt, the dried veneer enters the belt conveyor II 44 and is output to the stacking area at a speed of 1m / s; after the photoelectric sensor II 37 of the unloading station detects that the veneer has completely entered the belt conveyor II 44, the bottom-type receiving plate returns to the vertical state under the action of the 90° right-angle motor II; When the photoelectric sensor I 36 of the unloading station detects that the clamping suspension mechanism is at the exit end (0°) of the receiving track, the telescopic cylinder II of the rotary circulation station II in the drying line II at the exit end of the receiving track is ventilated, and the telescopic cylinder II extends the electromagnet II and is energized. When the clamping suspension mechanism reaches the predetermined position at the exit end, it is fixed by magnetic adsorption; when the unloading station operation is completed, the servo motor in the drying line II drives the rotating arm II to rotate from 0° to 90°, so that the clamping suspension mechanism is separated from the receiving track 25 and enters the loading station II of the drying line II to load the plate, and then rotates from 90° to 180°, and the electromagnet is powered off, so that the clamping suspension mechanism enters the loading and handling station II to complete the loading, and the electromagnet is powered off, and the rotating arm II returns from the drying line II to the unloading position in the drying line I, and so on. After the drying room is started, the air duct 52 transports the hot air to the centrifugal fan 49, which speeds up the airflow and injects it evenly into the interior to perform hot air drying on the single boards on the loading and handling stations. The centrifugal fans 49 on both sides form convection to achieve a certain circulation effect of the hot air inside. The circulating fan 50 continues to circulate the rising hot air flow at a uniform speed to the drying area below for hot air drying. When the internal temperature or humidity exceeds the preset value, the temperature and humidity sensor 53 on the top sends a signal, and the axial flow exhaust fan 51 increases the power output and resumes normal working state when the temperature and humidity drop.
[0016] The device of the present invention has the advantages of reasonable structural design, high degree of automation, accurate loading and unloading, neat circulation posture, high work efficiency, reduced labor costs, and strong practicality, thereby effectively solving the problems and shortcomings raised in the background technology of the present invention.
[0017] The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the photoelectric sensors are all of the same model, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in this field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
