Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of textile production technology, specifically to a steaming pot for textile production and its usage method. Background Technology
[0002] The yarn steaming pot is a key piece of equipment in textile production, mainly used for the wet heat setting treatment of yarn. By uniformly penetrating the yarn with high-temperature steam, it effectively eliminates internal stress, improves yarn stability and resilience, and reduces weaving breakage rates. The equipment uses a stainless steel pot body and is equipped with an automatic temperature and pressure control system to ensure precise processing. It is suitable for cotton, wool, and synthetic fiber yarns, with particularly significant effects on high-count and colored yarns. After steaming, the yarn has a soft hand feel, vibrant colors, and reduced shrinkage, making it an important step in improving the quality of textiles.
[0003] In existing steaming pots, the yarn remains stationary or is only disturbed by the overall airflow during the steaming process. The yarns are prone to sticking together and stacking, which prevents the steam from penetrating each fiber evenly. This results in inconsistent steaming levels between the inner and outer layers and large differences in the setting effect. At the same time, there is no mechanism for timed combing and turning of the yarn. The knots or tension formed in the yarn during the production process cannot be effectively released, affecting the softness and strength uniformity of the finished product.
[0004] In view of this, we propose a steaming pot for textile production and its usage method. Summary of the Invention

[0010] Preferably, the driven pin is slidably connected to the inner surface of the dispersion groove, and the lifting frame is slidably connected to the inner surface of the paddle housing.
[0011] Preferably, the control post includes an inner mounting post, which is rotatably connected to the inner surface of the paddle housing.

[0014] Preferably, the lifting slide plate is fixedly connected to the return spring, the two sides of the lifting slide plate are slidably connected to the side limit posts, and the fixed groove engages with both the integrated groove and the independent groove.
[0015] A steaming pot for textile production and its method of use include the following steps:
[0016] S1, the drive motor and meshing gears serve as the drive source, and the six drive pulleys on each side together with the top pulley stretch the two conveyor belts into a "closed loop of inner rectangle - outer oblique line"; the connecting belt moves with the belt, so that all the installation clamps move in a cycle according to the trajectory of "insertion from below, pushing to both sides, disengagement at an angle downwards, and return to the middle from above";
[0017] S2. The belt clamp hinges the fixed seat to the connecting belt, and the installation column and connecting beam are transferred step by step to ensure that the equidistant paddles only change their spatial position and do not rotate, and are always synchronized with the conveyor belt path.
[0018] S3. When the equidistant paddles enter the control slot area, the outer mounting post first inserts into the fixing slot, and the outer ratchet groove allows it to rotate forward. The extension shaft lifts the lifting frame, and the paddles are pushed open by the dispersion groove to clamp the yarn. Then the inner mounting post is inserted, and the inner pawl locks it so that it cannot rotate on its own. The entire paddle housing is forced to rotate 180 degrees. Then the inner mounting post reverses, the driven cam presses down on the lifting frame, and the paddles merge and release the yarn. The outer mounting post reverses, and the paddle housing rotates back to the initial position, completing the "clamp, flip, release, return" action sequence.
[0019] S4. The path belt completes one process cycle in three rotations: the first rotation combs and flips the yarn, the second rotation passes through without touching (pure steaming), and the third rotation repeats the actions of the first rotation; the lifting slide automatically compensates for height deviation under the action of the return spring, ensuring reliable insertion and withdrawal of the control column, and realizing continuous automatic steaming and combing.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0021] In this invention, by controlling the forward and reverse rotation sequence of the control column and cooperating with two sets of reverse ratchet wheels (outer and inner ratchet grooves), a programmed action of "outer column rotates first, clamps, inner column rotates later, flips, and then resets in reverse order" is achieved. This allows the equidistant paddle to automatically complete the entire process of clamping, flipping, loosening, and returning to center during movement without additional drive, which simplifies the structure and ensures reliable operation and precise rhythm.
[0022] In this invention, by using equidistant paddles to insert and comb the yarn only on odd-numbered wheels and to suspend the yarn for pure steaming on even-numbered wheels, and ensuring that the return path always remains above the yarn without contacting the yarn surface, a process rhythm of alternating "steaming" and "combing" without interference is achieved: the odd-numbered wheels separate, stretch, and flip the yarn one by one, allowing saturated steam to penetrate each fiber evenly, while the even-numbered wheels allow the yarn to be fully set without external disturbance; the entire cycle eliminates the inward pushing of the yarn during the return stroke, which not only avoids re-knotting or displacement, but also greatly improves the uniformity of steaming, the stability of setting, and the feel and strength of the final product.

[0042] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0043] Please see Figures 1 to 18The present invention provides a technical solution: a steaming pot for textile production, comprising a steaming pot base 1, a steaming pot shell 11 fixedly connected to the top surface of the steaming pot base 1, a placement platform 111 slidably connected to the inner surface of the steaming pot shell 11, an outer baffle 12 rotatably connected to the outer surface of the steaming pot shell 11, a steam valve 13 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the steaming pot shell 11, a path belt 2 provided on the inner surface of the placement platform 111, an installation clamp 3 provided on the outer surface of the path belt 2, equidistant paddles 4 provided on the outer surface of the installation clamp 3, a paddle shell 41 provided on the outer surface of the equidistant paddles 4, and a control groove 6 provided on the inner surface of the placement platform 111.
[0044] The path belt 2 includes a drive motor 21, which is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the placement platform 111. The output end of the drive motor 21 is fixedly connected to a meshing gear 22. The outer surface of the placement platform 111 is rotatably connected to a drive pulley 23. A conveyor belt 24 is sleeved on the outer surface of the drive pulley 23. A connecting belt 242 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the conveyor belt 24.
[0045] There are two meshing gears 22 on each side of the placement platform 111, and they mesh with each other. The drive pulleys 23 are symmetrically distributed on each side of the placement platform 111, and there are six on each side. The outer surface of the drive pulley 23 is fixedly connected to the pulley protrusion 231. The inner surface of the conveyor belt 24 is provided with a belt groove 241. The pulley protrusion 231 is slidably connected to the belt groove 241. The outer surface of the placement platform 111 is rotatably connected to the ejector wheel 25, and the ejector wheel 25 is in contact with the conveyor belt 24.
[0046] The path belt 2 is used to control the overall movement path of the equidistant paddle 4, so that the yarn is inserted in the downward direction and paddled to both sides, and does not contact the yarn when returning upward. During use, the drive motor 21 drives the meshing gear 22 to rotate. The meshing gears 22 on both sides mesh in opposite directions and drive the drive pulley 23 to rotate. The drive pulley 23 is mutually limited by the pulley convex ring 231 and the belt groove 241 on the conveyor belt 24 to prevent deviation. The outer side of the conveyor belt 24 is fixedly connected by the belt 242 for installing the clamp.
[0047] The three drive pulleys 23 on each side are arranged with two at the top and one at the bottom. The drive pulley 23 at the bottom is inclined. The top pulley 25 lifts the conveyor belt 24 to maintain the pretension, so that the path of the conveyor belt 24 is the shape of an inner rectangle and an outer diagonal line. In the rectangular area, when the mounting clamp 3 is at the bottom, it first moves to both sides until it moves diagonally downward in the diagonal line area, and rises again when it reaches the bottom. When it is at the top, it moves towards the middle.
[0048] It realizes the motion process of driving the equidistant paddle 4 to insert the yarn in the downward direction and paddle towards both sides, disengaging from the yarn when diagonally downward, and not contacting the yarn when returning upward.
[0049] The mounting fixture 3 includes a fixed base 31, one end of which is hinged to a hinged seat 32. A belt clip 321 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the hinged seat 32, and the belt clip 321 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting belt 242. A mounting column 33 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixed base 31, and a connecting beam 34 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the mounting column 33.
[0050] The mounting clamp 3 is used to connect the path belt 2 and the equidistant paddles 4. During use, the fixed seat 31 and the hinge seat 32 are both connected to the connecting belt 242 through the belt clamp 321, so as to move and rotate with the path of the conveyor belt 24. The fixed seat 31 and the hinge seat 32 can rotate relative to each other, so as to adapt to the path of the connecting belt 242 at the bend. The mounting column 33 moves and rotates with the fixed seat 31, while the connecting beam 34 is rotatably connected to the mounting column 33, only moving without rotating, so that the equidistant paddles 4 only change position.
[0051] The equidistant paddle 4 includes a paddle housing 41, which is rotatably connected to the connecting beam 34. A paddle base 42 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the paddle housing 41. Equidistantly distributed paddles 43 are slidably connected to the inner surface of the paddle base 42. A driven pin 431 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the paddles 43. A lifting frame 44 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the paddle base 42. A dispersion groove 441 is opened on the outer surface of the lifting frame 44. A tension spring 45 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the lifting frame 44. A driven latch 451 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the tension spring 45.
[0052] The driven pin 431 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the dispersion groove 441, and the lifting frame 44 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the paddle housing 41.
[0053] By setting the equidistant paddles 4, the yarn is paddled to both sides and clamped and flipped. During use, the paddle housing 41 is connected to the connecting beam 34 and moves along the path of the path belt 2. The inside of the paddle housing 41 is used to connect with the control column 5 to control clamping and rotation. The bottom is equipped with the paddle base 42 and the paddle 43 is installed.
[0054] The actuating pieces 43 are evenly distributed and in groups of two. The actuating pieces 43 in each group merge when actuated, and the yarn is placed between each group of actuating pieces when the yarn is inserted.
[0055] Each actuating piece 43 is connected to the dispersing groove 441 on the lifting frame 44 via a driven pin 431. In the initial state, the lifting frame 44 is at the bottom and the actuating pieces 43 are in a combined state. When the lifting frame 44 is lifted and raised, the dispersing groove 441 is an inclined groove, which will push the two actuating pieces 43 of each group to the sides, thereby clamping the yarn that was originally located between each group of actuating pieces 43.
[0056] The lifting frame 44 contacts the control column 5 through the driven block 451, and the lifting is controlled by the rotation of the control column 5 to adjust the opening and closing of the toggle plate 43.
[0057] The control post 5 includes an inner mounting post 51, which is rotatably connected to the inner surface of the paddle housing 41. An integrated groove 511 is formed on the outer surface of the inner mounting post 51. An inner ratchet groove 52 is fixedly connected to one end of the inner mounting post 51. An inner pawl 521 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the paddle housing 41. A driven cam 522 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the inner mounting post 51. An outer mounting post 53 is rotatably connected to the other end of the inner mounting post 51. An independent groove 531 is formed on the outer surface of the outer mounting post 53. An extension shaft 532 is fixedly connected to one end of the outer mounting post 53. An outer ratchet groove 54 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the paddle housing 41. An outer pawl 541 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the extension shaft 532. A driven protrusion 542 is fixedly connected to one end of the extension shaft 532.
[0058] The integrated groove 511 consists of two symmetrical semi-circular spiral grooves and straight grooves. The top of the inner pawl 521 is provided with a spring and connected to the paddle housing 41. The driven cam 522 contacts the lifting frame 44. The independent groove 531 consists of a semi-circular spiral groove. The outer pawl 541 is connected to the extension shaft 532 through a spring. The extension shaft 532 is rotatably connected to the inner surface of the inner mounting post 51. The driven protrusion 542 is slidably connected to the driven block 451.
[0059] The control slot 6 includes a fixed base 61, which is fixedly connected to the top surface of the placement platform 111. Symmetrically distributed return springs 611 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the fixed base 61. Limiting side posts 612 are fixedly connected to both sides of the fixed base 61. A lifting slide plate 62 is slidably connected to the top surface of the fixed base 61. A fixing groove 621 is opened on the inner surface of the lifting slide plate 62. A connecting cone 63 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixing groove 621.
[0060] The lifting slide plate 62 is fixedly connected to the return spring 611. The two sides of the lifting slide plate 62 are slidably connected to the side limit posts. The fixed groove 621 is engaged with the integrated groove 511 and the independent groove 531.
[0061] By controlling the setting of the control column 5 and the control groove 6, the clamping and flipping of the equidistant paddle 4 are controlled according to the forward and reverse rotation of the control column 5. During use, the inner mounting column 51 and the outer mounting column 53 form a cylindrical cam pair with the fixed groove 621 through the integrated groove 511 and the independent groove 531 opened on the surface. When the inner mounting column 51 and the outer mounting column 53 are inserted into the fixed groove 621, the cylindrical cam causes the inner mounting column 51 and the outer mounting column 53 to rotate. Since they move with the path belt 2, the inner mounting column 51 and the outer mounting column 53 will be inserted into the fixed groove 621 in sequence and then disengage from it. Thus, the inner mounting column 51 and the outer mounting column 53 will rotate when entering and exiting. Since the directions of entering and exiting the fixed groove 621 are opposite, the directions of the two rotations are also opposite. At the same time, when entering, the outer mounting column 53 enters the inner mounting column 51 first and then enters. When disengaging and returning, the inner mounting column 51 exits the outer mounting column 53 first and then exits.
[0062] The independent groove 531 has only a half-turn spiral and only rotates half a turn. The integrated groove 511 consists of two opposite half-turn spirals that alternate between forward and reverse rotation, and has a straight groove at the end that does not rotate.
[0063] According to the above rules, the rotation sequence of the inner mounting column 51 and the outer mounting column 53 is as follows: first, the outer mounting column 53 rotates forward, the inner mounting column 51 rotates forward, the inner mounting column 51 rotates in reverse, and then stops rotating; then, the column moves out, stops rotating, the inner mounting column 51 rotates forward, the inner mounting column 51 rotates in reverse, and the outer mounting column 53 rotates in reverse.
[0064] After obtaining the rotation sequence of the inner mounting post 51 and the outer mounting post 53, since both the inner mounting post 51 and the outer mounting post 53 are equipped with ratchet structures at their ends, the ratchet structure of the inner mounting post 51 is composed of an inner ratchet groove 52 and an inner ratchet pawl 521, and the ratchet structure of the outer mounting post 53 is composed of an outer ratchet groove 54 and an outer ratchet pawl 541.
[0065] The inner ratchet groove 52 of the inner mounting post 51 is installed on the surface of the inner mounting post 51, and the inner pawl 521 is fixed inside the paddle housing 41 and pops out by a spring. The outer mounting post 53 is the opposite. The outer ratchet groove 54 is fixed inside the paddle housing 41, and the outer pawl 541 is installed on the outer mounting post 53 and pops out by a spring. The two ratchet structures are in opposite directions.
[0066] When the outer mounting post 53 rotates forward, it is in the same direction as the outer ratchet groove 54 and can rotate, but it is jammed when rotating in reverse. When the inner mounting post 51 rotates forward, it is in the opposite direction to the outer ratchet groove 54 and is jammed, but it can rotate forward.
[0067] Based on the rotation sequence of the inner mounting post 51 and the outer mounting post 53 and the rotation direction controlled by the two ratchet structures, the following working sequence is obtained;
[0068] The outer mounting post 53 and the inner mounting post 51 enter the fixing groove 621 in sequence;
[0069] When the outer mounting post 53 rotates forward, it rotates inside the paddle housing 41. Through the extension shaft 532, it drives the driven protrusion 542 to rotate. The driven locking block 451 drives the lifting frame 44 to lift, and the paddle 43 separates and clamps the yarn.
[0070] When the inner mounting post 51 rotates forward, it gets stuck and cannot rotate inside the paddle housing 41, thereby causing the entire paddle housing 41 to rotate, and the clamped yarn rotates and flips together.
[0071] When the inner mounting column 51 reverses, the driven cam 522 pushes the lifting frame 44 downward, and the actuating plate 43 merges again and no longer clamps the yarn.
[0072] When the inner mounting column 51 stops rotating, it is in the downward path of the path belt 2, and the actuating piece 43 disengages from the yarn.
[0073] The outer mounting column 53 and the inner mounting column 51 are located within the longitudinal upward path of the rectangular path band 2, and there is no lateral displacement.
[0074] The inner mounting post 51 and the outer mounting post 53 are sequentially moved out of the fixing groove 621;
[0075] Internal mounting column 51 stops rotating;
[0076] The inner mounting post 51 rotates forward, and the paddle housing 41 flips over;
[0077] The inner mounting post 51 reverses, and the toggle piece 43 merges;
[0078] The outer mounting post 53 is reversed, the paddle housing 41 is flipped over, and all of them are removed from the fixing groove 621;
[0079] At this time, the equidistant paddle 4 is at the top and flipped upwards. It will not comb the yarn when returning, to prevent the yarn from being squeezed inwards from both sides when returning. When moving to both sides in the second cycle, it will not comb the yarn but will be used for steaming. In the third cycle, it will comb the yarn again, just like the first cycle, thus realizing the alternation of steaming, combing and flipping.
[0080] The driven block 451 rotates to lift or lower the lifting frame 44. When the lifting frame 44 is lifted, the driven cam 522 rotates to push the lifting frame 44 downward. At this time, the driven block 451 does not rotate but stretches the tension spring 45. It returns to its original state when the driven block 451 rotates again.
[0081] The inner mounting post 51 and the outer mounting post 53 will move and rise and fall along the path of the path belt 2. The lifting slide plate 62 can rise and fall on the limit side post 612 and be lifted by the return spring 611 to maintain the center position, thereby adapting to different heights. The connecting cone post 63 outside the fixing groove 621 is cone-shaped, so even if there is a height deviation between the inner mounting post 51 and the outer mounting post 53, it can gradually align with the fixing groove 621.
[0082] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, each component is installed inside the placement platform 111, which is installed inside the outer shell 11 of the steaming pot and is movable;
[0083] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the overall path of path band 2 is a rectangle and a diagonal segment. The rectangular area is used for outward combing in the downward direction and inward combing in the upward direction, while the diagonal segment is used for yarn unwinding.
[0084] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the mounting clamp 3 is used to connect the path strip 2 and the equidistant paddle 4, and to make the equidistant paddle 4 only change in position;
[0085] In this embodiment, as Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the equidistant paddle 4 controls the opening and closing of the paddle 43 by raising and lowering the lifting frame 44;
[0086] In this embodiment, as Figure 9 As shown, the inner mounting post 51 and the outer mounting post 53 rotate inside the paddle housing 41, and the inner pawl 521 and the outer ratchet groove 54 are fixed inside the paddle housing 41.
[0087] In this embodiment, as Figure 10 As shown, the rotation between the inner mounting post 51 and the outer mounting post 53 is independent of each other, while the rotation of the outer mounting post 53 extends to one side of the driven block 451 through the extension shaft 532.
[0088] In this embodiment, as Figure 11 , Figure 12 As shown, ratchet structures are installed at the ends of both the inner mounting post 51 and the outer mounting post 53, and the two ratchet structures are in opposite directions.
[0089] In this embodiment, as Figure 13 , Figure 14As shown, the independent groove 531 has only a half-turn spiral and only rotates half a turn. The integrated groove 511 consists of two opposite half-turn spirals and has a straight groove at the end. When viewed from different angles, the outer mounting post 53 enters the inner mounting post 51 first and then enters the fixed groove 621. When detaching and returning, the inner mounting post 51 exits the outer mounting post 53 first and then exits. The rotation process is: outer mounting post 53 rotates forward, inner mounting post 51 rotates forward, inner mounting post 51 rotates backward, stops, stops, inner mounting post 51 rotates forward, inner mounting post 51 rotates backward, outer mounting post 53 rotates backward.
[0090] In this embodiment, as Figure 15 As shown, the lifting slide plate 62 can rise and fall on the limiting side column 612 and be lifted by the return spring 611 to maintain the central position, thereby adapting to the different heights of the inner mounting column 51 and the outer mounting column 53;
[0091] In this embodiment, as Figure 16 , Figure 17 , Figure 18 As shown, the outer mounting post 53 and the inner mounting post 51 control the clamping and flipping of the equidistant paddle 4 through the rotation sequence.
[0092] The invention relates to a steaming pot for textile production and its usage method, the working process of which is as follows:
[0093] like Figures 1 to 18 As shown, during use, the drive motor 21 and meshing gear 22 serve as the drive source. The six drive pulleys 23 on each side and the ejector pulley 25 together stretch the two conveyor belts 24 into a closed loop of "inner rectangle - outer oblique line". The connecting belt 242 moves with the belt, so that all the mounting clamps 3 move in a cyclical motion according to the trajectory of "insertion below, pushing to both sides, disengagement diagonally downwards, and return to the middle above".
[0094] The belt clip 321 hinges the fixed seat 31 to the connecting belt 242, and the mounting column 33 and connecting beam 34 are successively transferred to ensure that the equidistant paddles 4 only change their spatial position without rotating, and are always synchronized with the path of the conveyor belt 24.
[0095] When the equidistant paddle 4 enters the control slot 6 area, the outer mounting post 53 first inserts into the fixing slot 621, the outer ratchet groove 54 allows it to rotate forward, the extension shaft 532 lifts the lifting frame 44, and the paddle 43 is pushed open by the dispersing groove 441 to clamp the yarn; then the inner mounting post 51 is inserted, the inner pawl 521 locks it so that it cannot rotate, and the entire paddle housing 41 is forcibly rotated 180 degrees; then the inner mounting post 51 reverses, the driven cam 522 presses down on the lifting frame 44, and the paddle 43 merges and releases the yarn; the outer mounting post 53 reverses, and the paddle housing 41 flips back to the initial posture, completing the "clamp, flip, release, return" action sequence.
[0096] The path belt completes one process cycle in three rotations: the first rotation combs and flips the yarn, the second rotation passes through without touching (pure steaming), and the third rotation repeats the actions of the first rotation; the lifting slide plate 62 automatically compensates for height deviation under the action of the reset spring 611, ensuring that the control column 5 can be reliably inserted and withdrawn, and realizing continuous automatic steaming and combing.
[0097] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the invention.
