[0032] The principles and features of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the preparation method of the self-heating patch in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0035] Step 1: Prepare the ingredients and mix the self-heating and self-heating paste.

[0036] Step 2, coating and lamination, specifically: the self-heating paste from Step 1 is placed between two layers of dust-free paper, and then rolled to form a semi-finished product;

[0037] Step 3: Cut the semi-finished product obtained in Step 2 into multiple semi-finished products according to the set size;

[0038] Step 4: Place the multiple semi-finished products obtained in Step 3 into a tray;

[0039] Step five, drying, specifically: placing the plurality of trays of step four into an oven, drying in an oxygen-free atmosphere;

[0040] Step six, packaging each piece of the dried semi-finished product to obtain the finished product.

[0041] In the preparation method of the embodiment, a relatively coherent process is adopted from the configuration of the self-heating paste to the final drying and packaging, which is relatively efficient. The rolling process reduces energy consumption by 20% compared to the traditional blade coating method, and can also greatly reduce labor intensity.

[0042] In the embodiment, the raw materials of the self-heating paste include the following raw material components by mass percentage:

[0043] 0.6-0.9% xanthan gum, 1-2.9% polyacrylamide, 1.2-1.6% wood pulp, 47.5-65.0% metal oxide powder, 32.0-47.5% carbon powder, and the balance water.

[0044] More specifically, in the embodiment, the xanthan gum and polyacrylamide are added to the stirring kettle according to the ratio, and water according to the ratio is added, heated at a temperature of 60-75°C for 30-35 min, then wood pulp is added according to the ratio, and stirred for 25-35 min, then carbon powder and metal oxide powder are added according to the ratio and stirred until uniform, to obtain the self-heating paste. The batching device uses a double-shaft stirring kettle with an internal paddle stirrer, with adjustable speed (30-500 r / s), equipped with a temperature control system (maintaining 50-200°C), to ensure that the self-heating raw materials (such as metal oxide powder, carbon powder, etc.) are uniformly mixed with additives such as xanthan gum and polyacrylamide into a paste, avoiding sedimentation. Pure mechanical batching has good discharge effect, high efficiency, and short cycle.

[0045] In the embodiment, the drying process is divided into three stages, the first stage is preheated at 115-125°C for 5-6 min, the second stage is constant temperature at 145-155°C for 10 min, and the third stage is cooled at 25-35°C for 5-10 min, and the residual moisture is ≤1%, to avoid cracking of the heating sheet. During the drying process, nitrogen (or other inert gas) is continuously input into the drying box under positive pressure to ensure that the entire drying process is carried out in an oxygen-free atmosphere to ensure that the heating patch will not be in contact with oxygen and become ineffective.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] As Figure 2 and 3As shown, the production line of the self-heating patch of the embodiment includes a first conveying device 1, a first roll material unwinder 2, a second roll material unwinder 3, a paste discharging device 4, a first roller shaft 5, a second roller shaft 6, a second conveying device 7, an oven 8, a material transfer device 9, a third conveying device 10, a packaging machine 20 and a roller cutting shaft 30. The first roll material unwinder 2 is arranged at the feeding end of the first conveying device 1. The paste discharging device 4 is arranged above the feeding end of the first conveying device 1. The second roll material unwinder 3 is arranged above the first conveying device 1 and downstream of the paste discharging device 4. The first roller shaft 5 and the second roller shaft 6 are arranged above the first conveying device 1 and across the conveying surface of the first conveying device 1. The roller cutting shaft 30 is arranged above the conveying surface of the first conveying device 1 downstream. The second conveying device 7 is arranged at the discharging end of the first conveying device 1. The second conveying device 7 passes through the oven 8. The material transfer device 9 is arranged between the discharging end of the second conveying device 7 and the feeding end of the third conveying device 10. The packaging machine 20 is arranged at the discharging end of the third conveying device 10.

[0048] In the embodiment, the first roll material unwinder 2 conveys the bottom layer of roll material (non-woven fabric or dust-free paper) on the surface of the first conveying device 1. The paste discharging device 4 discharges the self-heating paste on the bottom layer of roll material at the feeding end (conveying surface) of the first conveying device 1. Before entering the first roller shaft 5, the second roll material unwinder 3 unwinds the upper layer of roll material to cover the self-heating paste, and then enters the first roller shaft 5 between the conveying surface of the first conveying device 1 for the first time. After that, the second roller shaft 6 and the conveying surface of the first conveying device 1 are entered for the second time. During the rolling process of the self-heating paste, the three layers of the bottom layer of roll material, the self-heating paste and the upper layer of roll material are synchronously compounded to form a three-layer structure, thereby avoiding the adhesion of the self-heating paste to the equipment. Next, the three-layer structure passes under the roller cutting shaft 30 and is cut into multiple square sheets by the roller cutting shaft 30, and then falls on the tray prepared in advance on the second conveying device 7. Then, the three-layer structure is conveyed into the subsequent oven 8 by the second conveying device 7, dried, transferred to the feeding end of the third conveying device 10 by the material transfer device 9 at the discharging end of the second conveying device 7, and then conveyed to the packaging machine 20 by the third conveying device 10 for packaging. The cooperation between the various structural devices is close, and a relatively coherent assembly line processing can be formed, thereby improving the processing efficiency.

[0049] It needs to be specially pointed out that: the first roller shaft 5 and the second roller shaft 6 span above the conveying surface of the first conveying device 1, the height of the two is adjusted, the two ends are respectively rotatably assembled with the corresponding frame body, and one end of the two can be configured with a power device (such as a motor) to drive the two to rotate. The roll cutting shaft 30 is a product of the prior art (including a roller, a plurality of annular first cutting knives are arranged on the surface of the roller along the axial direction, and a plurality of second cutting knives extending along the axial direction are arranged between adjacent first cutting knives), the main purpose is to cut the conveyed sheet material into a row of small pieces of the same size, and the two ends are also rotatably assembled with the corresponding frame body, and the end portion can be configured with a power device (such as a motor) to drive it to rotate. In this embodiment, the paste discharging device 4 can adopt the patent with the publication number CN221092851U: a conveying device suitable for self-heating paste material discharging, and a plurality of conveying devices can be arranged to span the surface of the first conveying device 1.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first roll unwinder 2 and the second roll unwinder 3 are matched with the first roller shaft 5 and the second roller shaft 6 through the self-provided tension control system (which belongs to the conventional structural design of the roll unwinder, and the patent with the publication number CN202848714U: a roll constant tension unwinding device of a film laminating machine can be used, and the tension is 5-10N) to synchronize the compounding during the self-heating paste roller pressing process, and form a three-layer structure of “bottom layer roll-paste-self-heating paste-upper layer roll”.

[0052] Preferably, the above-mentioned material transfer device 9 is a manipulator (multi-axis manipulator), and the execution end of the above-mentioned manipulator is provided with a plurality of vacuum suction cups arranged in rows. The vacuum suction cups are driven by the manipulator to move reciprocally between above the discharge end of the second conveying device 7 and above the feeding end of the third conveying device 10, so as to transfer the dried multiple sheet materials to the third conveying device 10, so as to smoothly enter the packaging link. The vacuum suction cup is used to facilitate the taking and placing of the cut and dried sheet materials.

[0053] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned packaging machine 20 adopts the existing adaptive type four-side sealing packaging machine in the industry. The four-side sealing packaging machine adopts a conventional heat sealing process, the breathable film heat sealing temperature is 180-200℃, and the sealing edge width is 3-5mm, so as to ensure the sealing property.

The tailstock positioner is a commonly used device on the conveying belt (also called a tailstock device), which is equipped with a servo motor positioning system with an accuracy of ±0.5 mm. The tailstock positioner cooperates with the vacuum suction cup of the manipulator to neatly arrange the dried heat-generating sheet on the third conveying device 10 and neatly enter the packaging station of the subsequent packaging machine 20. The tailstock positioner mainly comprises a plurality of separation strips arranged on the upper surface of the discharge end of the third conveying device 10 in the conveying direction of the third conveying device 10, so that the cut sheet material can orderly advance in the plurality of channels isolated between the plurality of separation strips, and the sheet material is prevented from being skewed along the width direction of the conveying belt.

[0056] In the embodiment, the first conveying device 1 is a two-section conveying device, the cutting pad 13 is arranged between the front section conveying device 11 and the rear section conveying device 12, and the cutting pad 13 is mainly used to cut the “bottom layer of coiled material-self-heating paste-top layer of coiled material” three-layer structure in cooperation with the roll cutting shaft 30 to ensure effective cutting. The waste rolling machine 40 is mainly used to roll and recycle the two strip-shaped excess materials at both ends of the roll cutting shaft 30. The structure of the waste rolling machine 40 is consistent with the existing rolling machine, and an existing adaptive model of rolling machine can be used.

[0057] In the embodiment, the front section conveying device 11 and the rear section conveying device 12, the second conveying device 7 and the third conveying device 10 all adopt an adaptive model of belt conveyor.
