[0002] Carpet backing technology is a key process in carpet production, which aims to form a backing layer on the back of the carpet to enhance its stability, durability and comfort. With the development of the carpet industry, carpet backing technology is constantly innovating and improving. Currently, there are several ways to carpet backing technology, including hot melt adhesive backing, PVC backing and polyurethane backing. Hot melt adhesive film backing process is to stack the tufted carpet, hot melt adhesive film and non-woven fabric, then heat and melt the hot melt adhesive film, and then extrude it through the roller shaft to make the layers adhere to each other. PVC backing technology is to coat PVC glue on the back of the carpet, and then dry and cure it to form a backing layer. Some processes also add foaming agents to the PVC glue to make foamed PVC backing carpet.

[0003] In terms of carpet backing production line, existing technologies have achieved a certain degree of automation and continuous production. For example, CN117656642A discloses an energy-saving production line for carpet anti-staining pre-coating and backing, which includes an anti-staining pre-coating and drying production line, a PE non-woven fabric backing production line and an extruder skin backing production line. Through the design of S-shaped reciprocating walking, the drying efficiency is improved. CN106048924B discloses a joint carpet pre-coating and backing combined machine, which sets the carpet surface pre-coating processing line above the backing processing line, and the pre-coating drying and heating line and the backing plasticizing and heating line are in the same heating oven, realizing the recycling of heating energy. In the preparation of polyolefin backing joint carpet, CN114474932A discloses a preparation method and device, which rolls propylene-based resin glue on the back of the tufted carpet, and then composites with the treated glass fiber cloth, then applies propylene-based resin adhesive material and rolls the backing non-woven fabric layer, and finally cools and shapes to obtain a joint carpet with high dimensional stability. However, the existing polyurethane foaming carpet backing technology still has some technical problems: 1. Traditional polyurethane foaming technology mainly uses chemical foaming method, which is difficult to accurately control the reaction time and process, and is prone to unstable product quality. Chemical foaming agents release harmful gases during the reaction process, which has adverse effects on the environment and the health of operators.

[0004] 2. The existing polyurethane foaming carpet backing process usually needs to use a mold for foaming and molding, which is not suitable for large-scale continuous production, and the production efficiency is low, which is difficult to meet the needs of modern large-scale production.

In traditional processes, the preparation, transportation, and mixing of raw materials largely rely on manual operation, which is not only labor-intensive but also energy-intensive, resulting in high production costs.
